Something's Wrong! A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Entered the House! Three People Shocked! A Flower?

If she wanted to harm her, she could have acted directly in the Sea of Flowers half a year ago. Why wait until now?

Chen Qingling clearly understood this. "Xiao Wu, you don't need to worry. I have ties to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so I won't make things difficult for you."

"I forgot to tell you—both Titled Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are my masters."

"What?!"

Both Titled Douluo were Qingling's masters?

This... this...

That was far too outrageous!

Seeing Xiao Wu's wide-eyed stare, Chen Qingling thought she did not believe her and immediately continued.

"What? Xiao Wu, you don't believe me?"

Xiao Wu hurriedly shook her head. "No, no, it's not that I don't believe you. I just can't accept it all at once."

Anyone would have been stunned by what Chen Qingling had just said.

Two Titled Douluo as masters... then just how strong was her Father?

Xiao Wu did not even dare imagine it.

At the same time, curiosity arose in her heart. Chen Qingling clearly had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect behind her and two Titled Douluo as masters.

Why had she chosen to come all the way to Notting City, a borderland?

"Sister Qingling, can you tell me why you came here?" Xiao Wu blinked her big eyes and looked at her eagerly.

"Well..." Chen Qingling smiled faintly. "I came to follow the path my Father once walked. I want to become as strong as my Father!"

"By then, I'll definitely be able to find out where my Mother is!"

"I understand."

"Sister Qingling, I suddenly feel like the two of us are such a good match."

"One seeks revenge for her mother, while the other seeks her mother."

"Hahahaha."

They chatted and laughed along the way, finally reaching their destination after a day and a half of exhausting travel.

"We're here, guests."

Chen Qingling's eyes lit up. She took Xiao Wu's hand and stepped down from the carriage.

She gave the coachman a Gold Soul Coin as a tip.

"Guest... y-you've given too much. I can't take this."

"It's for you. You've earned it."

Chen Qingling ignored the coachman and directly led Xiao Wu into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Xiao Wu's expression trembled slightly as she looked at the magnificent Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, looking exactly as Qingling had when she first arrived.

Chen Qingling beamed at the sight.

"So? Isn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a Heaven on Earth?"

Xiao Wu nodded blankly. "Sister Qingling, thank you. If you hadn't brought me to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, I probably never would have seen such a sight in my life."

Inside the Council Hall.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong, who had been sitting and conversing with Ning Fengzhi, abruptly rose to their feet and looked outside the hall.

Ning Fengzhi did not understand why, but seeing the grim expressions on the two Titled Douluo's faces, he grew worried.

Anything that could make two Titled Douluo change expression at the same time surely could not be good.

"Sword Uncle, Bone Uncle, what happened?"

"Fengzhi, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has taken human form has entered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Chen Xin said calmly. As a Titled Douluo, his senses covered a vast range—enough to encompass the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"What? A transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?" Ning Fengzhi had considered every possibility. He had thought Spirit Hall might be here to cause trouble, but this was the one possibility he had never considered.

"Why would a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Ning Fengzhi frowned.

No matter what, this was not a good thing. One wrong move could cause immense losses to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Even a family as wealthy as theirs could not afford to be worn down like that!

Elsewhere, perhaps aided by fate itself, Ning Rongrong happened to run into the two of them.

The moment she recognized Chen Qingling, she was so excited that she could not speak.

"Rongrong!!!"

Chen Qingling ran toward her happily and hugged her tightly.

It was quite a while before the two reluctantly separated.

"This is..." Ning Rongrong looked at Xiao Wu beside Chen Qingling and unexpectedly felt a hint of jealousy.

"Rongrong, this is Xiao Wu—Wu as in dancing. She's a good friend I made at Notting Academy."

"Xiao Wu, this is Ning Rongrong, the young miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"Hehe, she's the one who brought me here in the first place."

Chen Qingling introduced the two to each other.

Xiao Wu curiously sized Ning Rongrong up and politely extended her hand. "Hello, Rongrong."

A faint glimmer flickered in Ning Rongrong's eyes as she extended her hand as well.

"Hello, Xiao Wu."

Just then, "Master!" Chen Qingling's expression turned excited when she saw Chen Xin and Gu Rong walking over together.

"Ah, Qingling, you've finally returned. While you were gone, Rongrong missed you terribly."

At the same time, Chen Xin and Gu Rong saw through Qingling's Soul Power Level at a glance.

Level twenty-eight!

She had been gone for half a year, yet she had risen so many levels in such a short time. Rongrong, on the other hand, had worked diligently every day and was still only level seventeen.

It was enough to show just how extraordinary Qingling's talent was—better even than those geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power.

She truly was a complete monster!

If they had not seen it with their own eyes, it would have been hard to believe someone like Qingling existed in this world.

As for Xiao Wu at her side, they naturally saw through her true identity as well, but they did not mention it for the time being.

"Qingling, your Second Soul Ring..."

"Master, do you mean this?"

With a thought from Chen Qingling, two Soul Rings rose beneath her feet.

When they saw the configuration of her Soul Rings, Ning Rongrong, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong's eyes widened in shock.

Ning Rongrong covered her mouth. "Qingling... y-your Second Soul Ring..."

"Why is it a purple Thousand-Year Soul Ring? How did you do it?"

At that moment, Ning Rongrong's mind went completely blank, and she lost the ability to think.

Only Chen Xin and Gu Rong immediately saw the trick behind it, leaving them even more shocked and speechless for a long time.

After a while.

"Rongrong... Qingling's Second Soul Ring must be an unprecedented and unparalleled sacrifice, just as expected."

"A sacrifice?!"

Ning Rongrong immediately understood.

Right, right. Only a sacrifice could ignore the limit of how much power a Soul Master could bear from a Soul Ring.

"Hehe..." Chen Qingling chuckled and scratched the back of her head.

"I only have a Thousand-Year Soul Ring thanks to Father."

"If Father hadn't sent me a flower in time, there was no way my Second Soul Ring could have been a Thousand-Year Soul Ring, much less one bestowed upon me by a Soul Beast's sacrifice."

"A flower?" Chen Xin frowned. What kind of thing could possess such an incredible effect?

Ning Rongrong suddenly thought of something. "Qingling... do you still have that flower? Can you let me take a look?"

"Just one look is enough."

"Oh, Rongrong, what are you saying? Why be so polite between us? It's just a flower. I can give it to you."

After all, Ning Rongrong had cared for Chen Qingling for so long without asking for anything in return. Chen Qingling was deeply grateful, yet had no way to repay her.

The only thing she could offer was this flower.

"Th-that wouldn't be right, would it?"

"It's fine. I don't mind. Even if Father finds out, he won't say anything."

Chen Shenge: Yeah, yeah, sure.

Chen Qingling immediately took out the Butterfly Attracting Flower.
