"Sect Master Ning, you are too kind."

Ye Ruilin's lips curled into a faint smile as he turned his gaze toward Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, his eyes carrying a hint of apology.

"Seniors, I truly apologize."

"I promised each of you an immortal herb, yet I have delayed until now."

Before the words had even faded, two flashes of light appeared, and two immortal herbs manifested in Ye Ruilin's hands.

The eyes of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo immediately began to shimmer.

Having witnessed the transformations of Old Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun, they had long been filled with anticipation for Ye Ruilin's immortal herbs.

After all, who wouldn't want their own strength to become even more formidable?

Ning Fengzhi's gaze had originally been fixed on the Aromatic Silk Beauty, but upon hearing Ye Ruilin's words, he looked at the young man with a moved expression.

In such a short time since they had met, their entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had benefited from this youth.

With such great kindness and virtue, how could their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ever repay him?

"Brother Ye, hurry and tell us, what are the wondrous uses of these two immortal herbs?"

Ning Rongrong was the most excited of them all.

Under Brother Ye's help, the strength of their entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had seen a massive improvement.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo looked at Ye Ruilin simultaneously, their eyes brimming with expectation.

Ye Ruilin smiled slightly and pointed to one of the immortal herbs to introduce it.

"This one is called the Nether Dragon Soul Grass. If there is anything in the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well most suitable for Senior Bone, it is this herb."

"Its greatest characteristic is its ability to trigger bloodline atavism in dragon-type martial souls."

"Senior Bone's martial soul is the Bone Dragon, so one could say the compatibility is extremely high."

The Nether Dragon Soul Grass in Ye Ruilin's hand was a deep, profound dark purple. Its leaves were covered in silver dragon patterns, the stem wound like a dragon's bone, and the roots were wreathed in black mist.

The leaves were shaped like dragon claws, and at the tip of every leaf sat a tiny black crystal, emitting a faint glow as if it contained the power of an endless dragon soul.

When Bone Douluo heard that this herb could cause his martial soul to undergo atavism, he could no longer hold back. He stepped forward and took the Nether Dragon Soul Grass directly from Ye Ruilin's hands.

"Kid, you aren't joking, are you?"

Bone Douluo stared intensely at Ye Ruilin, his tone carrying an unconcealable excitement.

Ye Ruilin smiled and shook his head, taking a jade bottle from his Space Ring.

"If you were to consume only the Nether Dragon Soul Grass, the effect might not be so obvious, but with this added, it will surely allow Senior to fulfill your wish!"

He gently shook the jade bottle in his hand and continued:

"Inside this jade bottle is Dragon Clan Essence Blood. Used together with the Nether Dragon Soul Grass, the effect will be superb."

Bone Douluo took the jade bottle, feeling the surging dragon aura emanating from within, and a flash of shock crossed his eyes.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Little Ye, this favor, this old man will remember it!"

Ye Ruilin waved his hand and laughed, "Senior, you are too serious; this is just a small token of my sincerity."

Ye Ruilin then turned to Sword Douluo, holding up the other immortal herb.

This herb was crystal clear, as if carved from crystal, with faint sword qi flowing over its leaves, making each one appear like a sharp longsword.

"Senior Sword, this one is called the Sword Heart Insight Grass, prepared specifically for you."

Ye Ruilin introduced it with a smile.

"This grass can purify your martial soul, enhance the purity of your sword intent, and perhaps even allow your Seven Kill Sword martial soul to advance further, reaching the realm of 'Sword Heart Insight'."

Upon hearing this, a sharp light flashed in Sword Douluo's eyes as he reached out to take the Sword Heart Insight Grass.

He felt the sharp, piercing sword qi contained within the herb, and waves of emotion stirred in his heart.

"Sword Heart Insight... this is the realm I have dreamed of for years!"

Ning Fengzhi watched the scene before him, his heart filled with deep emotion.

He stepped forward and said to Ye Ruilin solemnly, "Little Friend Ye, your kindness to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is truly difficult to express in words. If you ever have need, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will surely assist with all our might!"

Ye Ruilin smiled slightly and cupped his hands.

"Sect Master Ning, you are too serious; this junior is merely doing his small part. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and I are fated; if there is a need in the future, I will certainly assist with all my strength."

Ning Rongrong stood to the side, her eyes filled with adoration.

She tugged on Ye Ruilin's sleeve and said playfully, "Brother Ye, you are truly too amazing!"

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo exchanged a glance, both seeing joy and anticipation in the other's eyes.

"Since the items have been given, this junior will not linger any longer."

Ye Ruilin noticed the impatient mood of the three and spoke with a smile.

Not until his figure had vanished did Ning Fengzhi withdraw his gaze.

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect owes him far too much!"

"I can't pay this back..."

He sighed.

Even he, who could handle the Heaven Dou Imperial Family with ease, felt a sense of helplessness at this moment.

The items this young man had brought out were things they simply could not refuse.

Yet, as things stood, they had nothing of equal value to offer Ye Ruilin in return.

"Fengzhi, hurry and consume this Aromatic Silk Beauty."

"If your martial soul can also evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it will be time for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to change its name."

Sword Douluo stared at Ning Fengzhi, smiling broadly as he spoke.

"Indeed, Fengzhi."

"If your martial soul evolves successfully, you can just have a few more children later on, and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda will be passed down."

Bone Douluo added with a chuckle.

Upon hearing her two grandfathers' words, Ning Rongrong turned her gaze toward Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi noticed his daughter's gaze immediately and looked over nervously.

He had always had only one precious daughter, Rongrong, and he was somewhat afraid that she might not be willing.

"Dad, Sword Grandpa and Grandpa Bone are right."

"If Dad's martial soul can successfully evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, you can give me a few more younger brothers and sisters."

"That way, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will truly be renamed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Ning Rongrong said with a grin.

Sword Douluo affectionately patted Ning Rongrong on the head.

"That the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has such an opportunity is all thanks to Rongrong."

"If it weren't for Rongrong insisting on having this kid as a study companion, we wouldn't have let him stay in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"From now on, no matter what happens, Rongrong will remain the first-in-line successor to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

After Sword Douluo finished speaking, he looked at Ning Fengzhi, seemingly waiting for his answer.

"That goes without saying."

A smile touched the corners of Ning Fengzhi's mouth, and he did not find anything improper about Sword Douluo's words.

Originally, he had intended to have only Ning Rongrong as his daughter for the rest of his life.

But now, the situation was different.

In order to ensure the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul could be passed down, he would have no choice but to take in more concubines.

Yet, even so, no one would ever be able to shake Ning Rongrong's status within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
