Bone Douluo Humiliated into Kneeling! Ning Fengzhi's Acting Skills Go Online as He Painfully Slaps His Daughter Ning Rongrong in Rage
But Ning Fengzhi had not summoned his martial soul because he intended to fight. He was advancing in order to retreat.
He wanted Qian Renxue and the others to realize that they might not gain an advantage if they fought, making them back down and abandon the idea of forcing Bone Douluo to kneel and apologize.
And just as Ning Fengzhi had said, with the augmentation of a Soul Sage from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo's combat strength would greatly increase. If they truly fought, Qian Jun Falling Devil might not necessarily be able to suppress them.
But Ning Fengzhi had never imagined that Qian Jun and Falling Devil were not the only ones lurking in the shadows.
At that moment.
Suddenly.
A youthful voice rang out from a distant rooftop.
"Is that so~ Sect Master Ning, you're quite imposing! Then why don't you see whether you can survive a single arrow from me!"
The moment those words fell, Ning Fengzhi's hairs stood on end.
The three of them looked over at once and saw Guang Ling, who looked like a young boy, leisurely leaning against a wooden pillar on the roof while swinging his legs.
His nine soul rings and the Light Feather Divine Bow had already appeared.
"This is... Spirit Hall's Fifth Offering, Guang Ling Douluo!" Ning Fengzhi, who had only just hardened his stance, panicked on the spot. Cold sweat immediately streamed down his back, and beads of sweat formed at the corners of his face.
"Granduncle, you're here too!" Guang Yu was somewhat surprised.
It seemed Granduncle still wasn't at ease with having others protect me!
After a moment, Guang Ling replied, "Eh, I just came out to have some fun. Staying in the Worship Hall all the time is boring to death."
Guang Yu's mouth twitched slightly. Fine, fine! So you only came out to protect me because you were bored, huh!
"Attack!"
Qian Renxue shouted.
Qian Jun and Falling Devil charged at Ning Fengzhi without hesitation.
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo acted at the same time to block them, while Guang Ling had already drawn the Ice Divine Bow and aimed at Ning Fengzhi!
Ning Fengzhi's face turned deathly pale with fear. He could already smell the scent of death.
"Oh no! Sect Master!!"
"Guang Ling Douluo! How dare you!!" Bone Douluo roared urgently.
"Heh, why wouldn't I dare?" Guang Ling sneered as he prepared to fire the ice arrow in his hand.
Bone Douluo finally panicked. If he continued resisting, Ning Fengzhi might really die.
He cast aside his dignity and yielded. "Stop! I, Gu Rong, will kneel and admit my mistake!"
Ning Fengzhi, with his life hanging by a thread, let out a long sigh of relief inwardly.
He truly did not want to die yet. His ambitions were enormous as well.
Becoming the foremost of the Seven Great Sects was far from enough for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. He wanted to see it grow even stronger, to surpass Spirit Hall and become the number one soul master force on the continent!
When Guang Ling Douluo had appeared, Ning Fengzhi had actually wanted Bone Douluo to kneel and defuse the situation, but he had no way to say it himself!
Seeing Bone Douluo take the initiative to kneel and apologize, he was relieved.
But outwardly, Ning Fengzhi still had to put on an extremely pained expression. "Uncle Bone... you..."
"Ah..." Sword Douluo sighed inwardly as well.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's pained expression, Bone Douluo felt greatly comforted and thought the kneeling was worth it.
He withdrew his power and slowly dropped to both knees before Guang Yu.
"I was wrong. I'm sorry! I, Gu Rong, apologize to you!"
There was gold beneath a man's knees. For a Titled Douluo powerhouse like Bone Douluo, this kneel was an immense humiliation.
"Waaah! Grandpa Bone..."
Ning Rongrong burst into tears. Only at this moment did she realize how great a disaster she had caused.
Although Bone Douluo had willingly knelt, if Ning Fengzhi merely watched him kneel without doing anything—
He also feared that Bone Douluo would develop a grudge against him and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Ning Fengzhi did not want Bone Douluo to harbor even the slightest resentment.
Since he was putting on an act, he might as well go all the way and make Bone Douluo feel that this kneel was even more worthwhile!
Ning Fengzhi gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and painfully slapped Ning Rongrong across the face in rage!
Smack~
"Ahhh~"
Ning Rongrong was slapped to the ground by Ning Fengzhi. Her face was full of disbelief. "Dad, you... you hit me."
Rongrong, Dad doesn't want to hit you either. But to keep Uncle Bone from harboring even a trace of resentment toward us, Dad can only painfully strike you with this slap, Ning Fengzhi sighed inwardly.
Outwardly, he sternly rebuked her, "This is all your fault! You caused your Grandpa Bone to suffer such humiliation today. Shouldn't Dad slap you for that?!"
"Sect Master, what are you doing?! Why take your anger out on Rongrong?!"
Bone Douluo was deeply moved. Ning Fengzhi had actually struck his own beloved daughter for his sake.
"Uncle Bone, if not for Rongrong, how would you have suffered such humiliation today?" Ning Fengzhi said with a heartbroken expression.
Seeing this scene.
Guang Yu could not help viewing Ning Fengzhi in a different light. "This Ning Fengzhi really is no simple man! The Ning family of the Seven Treasure Sect truly has exceptional methods for winning people's hearts! No wonder Titled Douluo powerhouses like Sword and Bone are so loyal to a mere auxiliary sect."
To be honest, it was already remarkable for an auxiliary sect to develop into the foremost of the Seven Great Sects.
"Let's go!"
Ning Fengzhi and the others left in disgrace, not even staying at the hotel they had booked.
Just as they were about to leave, Guang Yu suddenly called out, "Wait!"
Ning Fengzhi stopped, his expression extremely ugly. He turned around and said, "What more do you want?"
Guang Yu pointed at the inn's dining hall, which had been wrecked into a complete mess. "You destroyed their establishment like this. Sect Master Ning, surely you aren't planning to make us pay for it? Shouldn't you compensate them ten times the cost?"
Seeing that they were only being asked to pay compensation, Ning Fengzhi decisively took out a bag of Gold Soul Coins and tossed it to the owner before hurriedly fleeing.
Seeing the Gold Soul Coins in the bag, the owner was overjoyed and thanked Guang Yu frantically in his heart. "Waaah, young man! You're truly a good person!"
Thus, the disturbance was resolved.
But Guang Yu knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would likely have to be eliminated in the future.
Actually, he had thought that as long as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect behaved itself in this life, then when Spirit Hall showed its intention to unify the continent, it could obediently withdraw into seclusion and refrain from participating in the conflict.
Spirit Hall would not necessarily have to destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
But the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was deeply tied to the Heaven Dou Empire. It was unlikely that they would obediently retire into seclusion rather than stand on Heaven Dou's side.
After leaving the inn, Bone Douluo felt more stifled and miserable the more he thought about it. His fury did not diminish. "Sect Master! Are we really going to swallow today's humiliation just like this?!"
"Uncle Bone, you must not do anything rash again." Ning Fengzhi tried his utmost to suppress Bone Douluo's rage, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. "Naturally, we cannot let today's matter end here."
"But Uncle Bone, a gentleman's revenge can wait ten years. We must learn to endure and wait for the best opportunity to reclaim today's humiliation!"
Sword Douluo also advised him at this moment, "Gu Rong, the Sect Master is right. Do not act on your own and seek revenge without authorization."
"Damn it!" Bone Douluo clenched his fists unwillingly.
"Spirit Hall! And those two young people... I, Ning Fengzhi, did not rise to my current position to be bullied so easily. Just wait. One day, I will make you pay for this," Ning Fengzhi plotted in secret.
