Ning Xuan, You Actually Followed Us

Ning Rongrong, who had already quieted down, ♤🐍  😾♬

couldn't help crying out again when she heard the words "break off the engagement."

"No!"

"You can't break off the engagement!"

She blocked Ning Xuan, who was about to leave.

"Ning Xuan, what gives you the right to break off the engagement? Do you want the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to become a laughingstock across the continent along with you?"

"Move aside!"

Ning Xuan said coldly.

He was already completely disappointed in his younger sister.

"I won't!"

Ning Rongrong said furiously.

"Dad, you can't let Ning Xuan go and make a scene."

"I think you're the one making a scene!"

Ning Fengzhi finally couldn't hold back and slapped the arm of his chair.

In an instant, the pearwood chair beneath him split in two.

Ning Rongrong's body stiffened, and her face turned pale.

[System detected Ning Rongrong's panic. Emotional Value +200]

"Dad, you've really disappointed me."

Only after a long while did Ning Rongrong take a deep breath and say,

"I was thinking of the family's reputation, but you scolded me without distinguishing right from wrong. How is that not favoritism?"

She pointed at Ning Xuan, whom she had blocked at the doorway, and continued speaking to Ning Fengzhi, her voice filled with sorrow and helplessness.

"Dad, do you know why Ning Xuan insists on breaking off the engagement?"

"You know?"

Ning Fengzhi also felt that his daughter had become a stranger to him.

"Of course I know."

Tears streamed down Ning Rongrong's face.

"Precisely because I know, I have to stop Ning Xuan from breaking off the engagement. I don't want the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to become the target of everyone's criticism and a laughingstock across the continent."

As soon as she said this,

Ning Fengzhi's expression darkened even further.

The two Titled Douluo, Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone, also wore extremely complicated expressions at her words.

What did she mean?

She knew what dirty thing Liu Erlong had done,

yet she still wouldn't let Ning Xuan break off the engagement? And she even claimed it was for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? What kind of logic was that?

"Rongrong, apologize to your brother now."

Ning Fengzhi said with a dark expression.

"Then go back. Immediately withdraw from Blue Tyrant Academy and return to the family to be educated again."

Ning Rongrong's face grew even paler, drained of all color.

"It was clearly Ning Xuan's fault. Why should I withdraw?"

"Because your values have become twisted."

Ning Fengzhi's face turned livid.

He walked up to Ning Rongrong and looked straight into her eyes.

"Then tell me, Sect Master, how exactly were you thinking of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Ning Fengzhi was truly disappointed to the extreme.

So much so that he no longer referred to himself as "I," but as "this sect master."

Tears streaming down her face, Ning Rongrong said,

"Ning Xuan is petty, selfish, and hypocritical. He clearly promised Dean Liu Erlong he could take us to hunt Soul Rings."

"But afterward, he went back on his word and wanted to use that as an excuse to manipulate Dean Liu Erlong. In the end, he made things worse, and could only use breaking off the engagement to threaten her."

"Dad, Sect Master Ning..."

"If news like this gets out, and everyone learns that the Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is this kind of person, what will they think of us from now on?"

"Sect Master Ning, do you still want to drag the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect into disgrace?"

By the end, she was already shrieking hysterically.

After unloading all that, she felt a sense of relief and thought herself utterly noble.

The entire sect wanted to go along with Ning Xuan's foolishness.

Only her!

Only Ning Rongrong was considering the sect's reputation!

Yet she failed to notice that as soon as she finished speaking, everyone-including Ning Fengzhi and Ning Xuan-looked at her differently.

Even Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone, who had always doted on her,

now looked at her with utter disappointment.

"Rongrong, listen to the sect master. Go withdraw from Blue Tyrant Academy."

Bone Douluo Gu Rong sighed.

"Once you're back, Grandpa will personally teach you. I'll make sure you learn properly."

Ning Rongrong froze.

Why did things seem to be developing differently from what she had imagined?

She was about to continue speaking when Ning Fengzhi let out a cold laugh.

"So this is what you know about what happened?"

"Of course!"

Ning Rongrong looked at her father again.

At that moment, she too felt that her father, Ning Fengzhi, had become utterly unfamiliar.

When had Dad become like this?

Ning Xuan.

It had to be because of Ning Xuan again!

Ning Rongrong took a deep breath.

"Dean Liu Erlong told me all of this herself. Is there still a problem?"

"Did she also tell you"

Ning Fengzhi sneered,

"about what happened between her and your teacher, Yu Xiaogang?"

Ning Rongrong froze.

Of course she knew.

The story had already spread throughout their Shrek Seven Devils.

"I know,"

Ning Rongrong said.

"But what does that have to do with anything?"

"Who hasn't had a passionate, unrequited love before getting married?"

"Then do you know that she and your teacher, Yu Xiaogang, are blood-related cousins?"

Ning Fengzhi asked again, his face livid.

Ning Rongrong froze.

She really hadn't known that.

So Dean Liu Erlong and Grandmaster were related by blood.

No wonder Dean Liu Erlong treated them so well.

But after a moment's thought, Ning Rongrong's expression brightened with excitement.

"Dad, since you all know that Dean Erlong and Grandmaster are cousins, what could the problem possibly be?"

"Surely you believe now that Ning Xuan is just petty, jealous even of Dean Erlong and her cousin."

"And now he wants to go as far as breaking off the engagement!"

"Dad, don't you think what you're doing is foolish?"

Foolish?

Ning Fengzhi couldn't hold back any longer.

He swung his hand and slapped Ning Rongrong to the ground.

The smack rang out loudly.

Ning Rongrong clutched her face and stared at Ning Fengzhi in disbelief.

"Sect Master Ning, you actually hit me?"

"Idiot!"

Ning Fengzhi was so furious that he rushed forward, still wanting to kick her twice more. Fortunately, the two Titled Douluo, Sword and Bone, hurriedly grabbed hold of him.

But the fact that he could make the usually refined Ning Fengzhi this angry

showed just how disappointed

he was in Ning Rongrong today.

"Rongrong, hurry and apologize to the sect master."

Sword Douluo Chen Xin wrapped his arms around Ning Fengzhi's waist, while hurriedly signaling to Ning Rongrong.

"I won't!"

"I did nothing wrong!"

Ning Rongrong stubbornly got to her feet. Her delicate little face was already red, with five clear finger marks on it.

"Then let me ask you again."

Ning Fengzhi's face twisted with extreme rage.

"When you went to Sunset Forest a few days ago, how did you arrange your tents at night? And who did your Dean, Liu Erlong, sleep with?"

Ning Rongrong was utterly stunned.

Even the hand covering her face dropped unconsciously.

But just as Ning Fengzhi and the others thought Ning Rongrong was finally going to see the light, they saw her suddenly turn around and glare viciously at Ning Xuan, who had been standing beside them in silence.

"You actually followed us?"

"Ning Xuan, you're truly shameless!"

"Not only are you hypocritical and petty, you even shamelessly followed us."
