Ning Fengzhi

Uncle Bone?

Lin Qingchen raised an eyebrow and immediately realized who it was.

Ning Fengzhi and the Gu Rong.

Ning Fengzhi is a typical businessman. If he had been watching my performance in the competition, he would probably have chosen to invest in me, since we have never had any conflicts.

Given that Xue Qinghe is currently showing him goodwill, Ning Fengzhi, as his teacher, should not refuse him at this moment.

Lin Qingchen's mind raced, and he immediately considered the possible developments of the situation, which reassured him considerably.

However, he did not slacken his efforts, after all, this was the best direction for development.

While they were thinking, Xue Qinghe had already let the two of them in.

Soon, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a refined middle-aged man wearing a seven-jeweled crown and an elderly man who was at least one kilogram tall walked in one after the other.

"Fengzhi Your Highness the Crown Prince." Ning Fengzhi did not look at Lin Qingchen beside him, but gave Xue Qinghe a simple greeting.

"Teacher, there's no need for that." Xue Qinghe quickly helped Ning Fengzhi up.

After that, Xue Qinghe introduced Ning Fengzhi, "Teacher, this is Lin Qingchen, the young hero of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

"Qingchen, these two are Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Bone Douluo Gu Rong."

"This junior greets Sect Master Ning and His Majesty Bone Douluo."

As soon as Lin Qingchen finished speaking, Gu Rong's skinny, bony old face was instantly brought close to his face.

Lin Qingchen quickly took a few steps back.

Seeing that Lin Qingchen seemed to be frightened by him, Gu Rong chuckled twice and then said, "Your aura is steady. You are indeed a true genius. Kid, are you interested in joining my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Is it that straightforward?

Ning Fengzhi shook his head helplessly, quickly pulled Gu Rong back, and then gave Lin Qingchen an apologetic smile, "Sorry, Uncle Bone is always like this, I hope I didn't scare you?"

Lin Qingchen shook his head.

"It's good that everything is alright." Ning Fengzhi nodded.

Then he stopped talking.

Seeing that Ning Fengzhi remained silent, Lin Qingchen, not wanting to linger any longer, took his leave.

After watching Lin Qingchen leave, Xue Qinghe asked, "Teacher, what are you doing here?"

Ning Fengzhi shook his head at Xue Qinghe: "Before coming here, I heard that Prince Xue Beng and Lin Qingchen had some disagreements, and Prince Xue Xing has always been close to Prince Xue Beng. If Your Highness really wants to win over Lin Qingchen, you might as well start from this angle."

"Teacher, why did you suddenly bring this up?" Xue Qinghe asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ning Fengzhi simply said, "Poison Douluo seems to have some connection with Prince Xue Xing. If he takes action, there might be some unexpected changes. Therefore, Your Highness, it would be best if you resolved this conflict as soon as possible."

Xue Qinghe nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

"Teacher, I understand."

"Well, it's good that you mean it. We'll be going now. Rongrong wouldn't let me leave before we left, and I'm afraid she'll nag me again when I get back."

As he spoke, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile.

He was only half telling the truth, but his Little Demoness really does nag about him.

"Alright, then please take care, teacher. Please give my regards to Rongrong."

"Okay, you should go home early too."

After speaking, Gu Rong raised his hand, and spatial power surged, instantly creating a spatial passage. The two entered it and disappeared from the hall.

Xue Qinghe scratched his head, still unable to understand why Ning Fengzhi would say such strange things. Had he discovered something that I hadn't?

He didn't understand, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

"Uncle She, have you noticed anything strange?"

A dark figure immediately appeared in front of him; it was none other than the Snake Lance Douluo She Long.

He shook his head. "Young Master, I don't know either."

From the moment the Gu Rong appeared, he consciously kept his distance, concealing his presence for fear of being discovered. Naturally, he didn't know if there was anything special about it.

"Okay, let's go back first."

Since that was the case, Xue Qinghe didn't ask any more questions, but she still remembered it and decided to find another opportunity to investigate it later.

On the other side, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

A spatial passage opened, and Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong appeared one after the other.

"Fengzhi, don't you want to test that kid's answer to why the second ring is a thousand-year secret? Why did you suddenly stop talking?" Gu Rong asked doubtfully.

"Uncle Bone, do you believe in physiognomy?" Ning Fengzhi suddenly asked.

"Facial features..."

"Yes, often you can tell a lot about someone just from their appearance the first time you see them."

Gu Rong nodded. "So?"

"For example, from the first moment I saw Lin Qingchen, I could tell that he was a very opinionated person, so we definitely wouldn't get an answer from him. Since we know we can't get an answer, there's no need to ask. Otherwise, wouldn't that just create more tension?"

"I see, I understand..." Gu Rong nodded, indicating that he understood.

Hmm... I think I understand now.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Gu Rong, clearly not quite believing that the other party understood. After all, although Gu Rong was outstanding in strength, he was not very good at handling mundane matters.

"In short, since Xue Beng and Xue Xing have a grudge against Lin Qingchen, it's a good opportunity to observe Lin Qingchen more closely. Who knows, we might uncover some deeper secrets. Let's just wait and see."

He had barely finished speaking when a clear, slightly spoiled voice suddenly rang out. "Dad! You're finally back!"

The next moment, someone pounced on him.

Ning Fengzhi hugged her. "Hey, Rongrong, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, Grandpa Sword told me you're back! Dad, did you bring me any presents this time?"

Ning Fengzhi tapped her head and said irritably, "I've only been gone a short time, where am I supposed to bring you a gift?"

Ning Rongrong pouted and wriggled out of Ning Fengzhi's arms. "So there wasn't one..."

"Hehe..."

Gu Rong smiled and signed Ning Rongrong's hand. This time, Ning Rongrong didn't struggle and obediently hugged Gu Rong.

"Uncle Bone, you should just spoil this girl. We clearly agreed to go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy together for the ceremony, but she suddenly changed her mind at the last minute and now she's asking me for a gift."

"Hey, I'm happy to spoil you, what's it to you?"

Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to remain silent.

The two sect-protecting Douluo were good in every way, except that they doted on Ning Rongrong and wished they could raise her as their own granddaughter.

Sometimes he couldn't even teach his daughter properly, because he was afraid that one day she would cause some other trouble.

"Uncle Bone, please, no matter what, once this girl is old enough, send her to school for a proper education. I'm begging you."

Gu Rong initially wanted to refuse, but looking at Ning Fengzhi, he nodded anyway.

It's good to go out and see the world. Anyway, we'll be going to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. With me watching over her, I don't have to worry about Rongrong being wronged.
