Ning Rongrong was stunned for a long while. Combined with everything that had happened over the past two days, she finally made up her mind that she had to stay far away from the Shrek group—especially Tang San.
But when Ning Rongrong thought of Xiao Wu's one-hundred-and-eighty-degree change in attitude toward Tang San these past two days, she could not help growing curious. "With Xiao Wu's personality, she shouldn't have gotten angry at Tang San for no reason. Could it be that she can see the diary too?"
"Chu Bai, that guy... I'm not the only one who can see his diary?!"
After complaining about Chu Bai, Ning Rongrong fell silent for a long time.
"Will Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bone really die in the future? I can't let that happen. Since Chu Bai knows about the future, he must have a way to solve this!"
[Host has completed the Roast Diary entry. Roast damage: Intermediate. Reward obtained: Physical Body Enhancement. Life Soil.]
"Life Soil? What is that?" Chu Bai asked in confusion.
[It can be used to cultivate Immortal Herbs. Simply place Immortal Herb pollen or seeds into the Life Soil, and a brand-new Immortal Herb can be cultivated in just one week.]
Chu Bai was startled. Didn't that mean he would have unlimited Immortal Herbs?
Before long, Chu Bai, lying on the bed, felt the strength throughout his body swell at that moment. After a series of changes, he seemed to have grown taller, and the muscles all over his body became more defined, giving him an even stronger appearance.
His physical body had become more powerful. When he used soul skills in the future, he presumably would no longer injure himself.
"Thinking about it, I've already been in Heaven Dou City for several days. I said I'd bring Bibi Dong a surprise this time, so I can't go back with only Dugu Bo."
"Looks like it's time to pay the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a visit."
Early the next morning, Chu Bai summoned Dugu Bo.
"Holy Son, are you planning to go out?" Dugu Bo asked curiously.
"Come with me to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Chu Bai said.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect..."
Dugu Bo seemed to understand Chu Bai's intentions and offered a reminder. "Holy Son, I should not be speaking out of turn, but among the Upper Three Sects, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is clearly more inclined toward the Heaven Dou Empire."
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is different from a lone man like me. If you want to recruit them, I'm afraid it won't be easy."
Chu Bai said helplessly, "Of course I know that, but I have my own methods."
"Still, whether they will work can only be known after trying."
Not long after Chu Bai and Dugu Bo left their residence, they saw Ning Rongrong approaching them on the street. Upon seeing Chu Bai, Ning Rongrong instinctively wanted to ask about the diary.
But in the end, she simply could not say it.
With no other choice, Ning Rongrong acted as usual. "Chu Bai, we meet again!"
"Didn't you return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Chu Bai asked curiously. After what happened last time, would Chen Xin, who doted on Ning Rongrong so much, really feel at ease letting her go out alone?
Come to think of it, he still did not know what had happened to the Shrek group after Chen Xin took Ning Rongrong there to settle the score last time.
"It was too boring in the sect. I had a hard time persuading my father before I could sneak out to have some fun."
Ning Rongrong pouted. "But Chu Bai, where are you planning to go?"
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Chu Bai answered.
"Huh? You're going to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Ning Rongrong asked in confusion. "Could it be that you have something to discuss with my father?"
"What if I said I'm going there to ask for your hand in marriage? Would you believe me?" Chu Bai teased.
"Huh? What are you saying? Pervert." Ning Rongrong blushed and shot Chu Bai a glare.
"But since you're going to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, come with me. I'll take you and Senior Dugu there."
Dugu Bo, following behind Chu Bai, could not help secretly giving him a thumbs-up.
The Holy Son sure knows what he's doing. Get the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect first, and then Ning Fengzhi, who dotes on his daughter, will definitely listen to Ning Rongrong's advice. Not bad, not bad. The Holy Son's handsome-man scheme is truly brilliant.
Chu Bai did not know what Dugu Bo was thinking. If he did, he would probably be speechless again.
Following Ning Rongrong, Chu Bai and Dugu Bo soon arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. With Ning Rongrong leading the way, their journey was quite smooth. After successfully entering the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong brought Chu Bai and Dugu Bo to a reception room, then went to notify Ning Fengzhi.
While they waited.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the continent's number one support-type martial soul. If the Holy Son can truly recruit them, it will be of enormous help to Spirit Hall's strength," Dugu Bo could not help saying. Not to mention that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also had two Titled Douluo, Chen Xin and Gu Rong.
"Precisely because of that, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has its own pride. On top of Spirit Hall's previous actions having won little goodwill, Ning Fengzhi is also a cautious and meticulous man. Naturally, he would not be willing to trust Spirit Hall."
"Still, I believe it can be done with a little effort."
Dugu Bo chuckled. "I think Ning Rongrong seems quite concerned about you, Young Master."
"Why not make a little sacrifice? After all, a handsome-man scheme can be quite effective."
Chu Bai looked at Dugu Bo speechlessly.
This old man was far too improper.
He had probably played around quite wildly when he was young.
Before long, Ning Rongrong slowly approached with an elegant-looking man. When Chu Bai saw Ning Fengzhi, he could not help muttering, "Ning Fengzhi takes really good care of himself. If you told me he was Ning Rongrong's older brother, I'd believe it."
"Chu Bai, long time no see," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.
"Uncle Ning, please forgive my sudden visit."
Chu Bai rose to his feet with a smile. Chen Xin was following behind Ning Fengzhi, but Gu Rong had not come.
When Ning Fengzhi saw Dugu Bo, he cupped his hands in greeting as well. "I never expected the renowned Senior Dugu to come here with Chu Bai. Please forgive the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for our inadequate hospitality."
Dugu Bo waved his hand. "Sect Master Ning, you are too polite. I came here with the Holy Son, so there is no need to concern yourself with me."
Upon hearing how Dugu Bo addressed Chu Bai, Ning Fengzhi's gaze shifted slightly, though he did not show it.
Could Dugu Bo have joined Spirit Hall? Then why has Chu Bai come to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect this time...
Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.
The group then sat down, and Ning Fengzhi chatted amicably with Chu Bai.
"I heard from Rong Rong that your strength is already enough to repel a Soul Saint. You truly are a young genius. When I first met you, you had only recently become a soul master," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.
"I merely got lucky. I came to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in a hurry this time, so I was unable to bring any present worthy of the occasion. Uncle Ning, I think you will be interested in this."
Chu Bai took out the As-You-Wish Hundred Treasures Pouch. As light flashed, an Immortal Herb appeared in his hand. Dugu Bo was also stunned when he saw the familiar Immortal Herb.
Was Chu Bai planning to buy over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect with an Immortal Herb?
Wasn't he underestimating the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect too much? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect might not even think much of these Immortal Herbs.
