Ning Rongrong: Whoever dares to touch Lin Yan, I will kill myself

The silver-white dagger lacked any patterns, yet it emitted a chilling, cold light as it refracted the sunlight.

At this moment, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence; even Lin Yan was stunned!

However, looking at the resolute expression on Ning Rongrong's face so close to his own, he quickly cleared his thoughts.

"Fine! If we're going to die, we die together."

"If they dare to touch me, I'll kill you!"

As the words fell, Lin Yan took the dagger and held it directly against Ning Rongrong's throat.

The cold blade pressed against her skin, causing the young girl's body to tense up, but even so, she did not dodge in the slightest. Instead, she stiffened her neck and turned to look at the people opposite them, adopting a stance of sharing life and death with Lin Yan.

Seeing this, Bone Douluo was so enraged that his aura surged wildly. He initiated Martial Soul Possession, and nine soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—pulsed frantically like ambient lighting.

The full pressure of a level 95 Title Douluo was unleashed, yet that might failed to affect Lin Yan in the slightest.

Because Ning Rongrong was standing in front of Lin Yan...

"You..."

"You beast! You damn bastard, you actually dare to hold a blade to Rongrong's throat?"

"Do you have any idea what you are doing?"

Gu Rong was frantic with rage. Seeing that the tip of the blade had already pierced Ning Rongrong's skin and drawn blood, he hated his own helplessness!

Sword Douluo was the same. His usually indifferent, dead-fish eyes were wide open, and his sharp brows and starry eyes had all transformed into the visage of an Asura!

Seven Kill manifested, and countless sword shadow clones formed in an instant, all pointing their tips directly at Lin Yan.

"Brat, I'll give you three breaths. If you don't let go of Rongrong, you die!"

Sword Douluo's threat was direct.

He was ninety percent certain he could save Ning Rongrong from Lin Yan's hands. Even if Rongrong's throat were pierced, as long as he and Gu Rong flew at full speed and used their soul power to stop the bleeding, they could definitely reach the Nine Heart Begonia lineage in Heaven Dou City before her life faded away.

Therefore, he was prepared to burn his bridges.

The dignity of the Upper Three Sects would never tolerate provocation from a commoner soul master.

"Do you think that by using Rongrong's life as a hostage, you can keep your secret today?"

"Ignorant! You underestimate my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and you underestimate a Title Douluo."

Chen Xin's implication was clear: the three of them were not afraid of this kind of threat from Lin Yan. On the contrary, this method would only further incite their fury.

He believed that with Lin Yan's intelligence, he would certainly realize this.

And the facts were just as he expected; Lin Yan quickly realized that this tactic seemed useless against two Title Douluo and one Soul Saint.

Not to mention that he couldn't bear to harm Ning Rongrong's life, even if he were truly pushed to the brink, the two Title Douluo would surely have a way to save her. In the end, he would be the only one left in a desperate situation.

Damn it! Am I really going to be a fish on the chopping block today?

A bitter look appeared in Lin Yan's eyes.

In the end, all his calculations were no match for a light stroke of fate.

To think that after obtaining the system, two top-tier martial souls, a God-Given Soul Ring, and an External Soul Bone...

I would end up failing at the very starting line of a beautiful life. It's hard to imagine what my days will be like from here on out.

Ning Fengzhi and those two old geezers will definitely torture me to death...

Sigh~

I thought I could break the deadlock by holding Ning Rongrong hostage, but I still underestimated the resolve of the people opposite me.

He moved his right hand holding the dagger slightly downward. Since Ning Rongrong could not be used as a bargaining chip, he might as well stop pressing the blade against her.

At this moment, he felt no hatred for Ning Rongrong, nor for Ning Fengzhi; he only hated himself! For not being thorough enough in his actions...

"Phew~"

"At least you're sensible!"

Gu Rong let out a long sigh of relief, but in the next second, he flashed directly in front of Lin Yan.

He wanted to snatch the dagger from Lin Yan's hand, however...

"Who dares to move?"

"If you dare to touch a single hair on Lin Yan today, I will kill myself!"

Ning Rongrong snatched the dagger from Lin Yan's hand and, without the slightest hesitation, stabbed it directly into her own neck.

Bright red blood flowed out in a gurgle along the tip of the blade; clearly, the stab was not shallow...

"Rongrong!"

Gu Rong was terrified, Sword Douluo was so frightened that he retracted his martial soul, and even Lin Yan felt a chill run down his spine!

He hurriedly used the life energy of the Blue Silver Emperor to begin healing Ning Rongrong.

"Don't push it any deeper; if you pierce the artery, I won't be able to save you."

"Don't you worry about it!"

Seeing that the bleeding had stopped, Ning Rongrong actually pressed down harder, causing the blood to flow once more, this time significantly more than before.

She looked toward Ning Fengzhi.

"Father, the gift Lin Yan gave me has many restrictions; it is impossible for it to be used by the sect, so give up on that idea."

"Sword Grandpa, Bone Grandpa! If you two force Lin Yan any further, I will die right in front of you."

It was clear that Ning Rongrong knew exactly who was pulling the strings today.

She knew that Ning Fengzhi cared about the interests of the sect, and she knew that Sword and Bone Douluo cared about her life.

Who said Ning Rongrong was foolish? Isn't she quite clever?

When the mountains and rivers seemed to leave no path, a new village appeared amidst the willows and flowers.

The situation that was originally a certain death sentence today had been brought back to life by this silly girl, Ning Rongrong!

Lin Yan was overjoyed, the previous sense of defeat swept away in an instant.

At the same time, he secretly gave Ning Rongrong a huge thumbs-up in his heart. A love-struck brain is bad? A love-struck brain is actually wonderful!

"Rongrong, well done!"

"All these days of pampering you haven't gone to waste."

Mentioning this, Ning Rongrong seemed to have had a sudden epiphany.

"That's right! Lin Yan and I have already crossed the line; I am carrying his child."

"If you kill him, the child in my womb will have no father."

"Uh~"

Lin Yan was speechless.

"There was no need for you to tell that white lie. Can't those two Title Douluo tell whether you're pregnant or not?"

Ning Rongrong froze. "Ah? Can they tell?"

She turned to look at Sword and Bone Douluo, only to see that the faces of these two men were now as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The little princess, who had been doted on by two Title Douluo for twelve years, had hooked up with some outsider in just three months, and was even using her own life and a fabricated child as leverage—was this still the Douluo Continent?

Even if they racked their brains, they never could have imagined that Ning Rongrong would go to such lengths!

The originally favorable situation had flipped once again. With Ning Rongrong acting like this, who would dare touch Lin Yan?

Even if Ning Fengzhi remained solely focused on the interests of the sect, Sword and Bone Douluo could still be considered rational people...

Under the sunlight, Lin Yan held Ning Rongrong, his hands supporting her bottom, and looked at the opposite side with a beaming smile.

This wave was a total victory! Hahaha~

Unable to contain his excitement, he leaned in and planted a light kiss on the girl's thin lips.

Smack~

Sword and Bone Douluo were completely petrified!

As for Ning Fengzhi... after a long silence, he finally spoke slowly.

"Young friend Lin Yan, we only came today in the capacity of Rongrong's guardians to meet her boyfriend. We have no other malicious intent, so why must we make the situation so tense?"
