"Xue Qinghe just came. Did you see him, Chen'er?"
Ning Fengzhi asked.
Since Ning Chen appeared here, he would naturally discover Xue Qinghe who just left.
Ning Chen nodded: "Not only did I see you and say hello, but I also heard everything you just said."
"So what are your plans?" Ning Fengzhi asked curiously.
Although he felt more sorry for Ning Chen than Ning Rongrong, one of the reasons was that the child lost his mother at a young age and he felt sorry for Cui'er.
But the main reason is that Chen'er is too precocious.
Precocious, it makes people feel distressed.
Anyone who has come into contact with him and dares to look down on his Chen'er will suffer a great loss.
"Hasn't he already told father about his intentions and plans? Let's just do as he says and let me go to Tiandou Royal College as a specially-appointed teacher." Ning Chen said indifferently.
"impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"childish!"
"Do you know what Xue Qinghe is planning? He asked you to go to Tiandou Royal Academy in order to use you to control the entire Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and make the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect be cautious in the future! He wants to use you to contain the development of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect!"
"If you don't go, then the sect will at most be suppressed by the Tiandou royal family, and at most Jiuchen City will be handed back. But if you go, then what will happen to the entire Jiubao Liuli Sect and the Medicine Hall?"
Ning Fengzhi got angry and continued, "Besides, although I, Ning Fengzhi, am not like Tang Hao, who once roamed the continent freely and unrestrainedly, and was even called the youngest Titled Douluo and was admired by thousands of soul masters, your father is not a timid person!
He wants me to hand over my son to his Tiandou royal family as a hostage in exchange for my own safety and the seclusion of the sect. It would be better for me to die directly!"
"Even if I have to sacrifice my life and all the wealth I have accumulated over the years, I will never let a student of mine like him manipulate me!"
Ning Chen smiled faintly, and a warm feeling flashed through his heart.
Although he had already regarded the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect as his home and himself as a member of this family for so many years, otherwise he would not have been able to make so many preparations for the development of the sect and to prevent the sect from being destroyed in the War of the Two Gods in the next few years...the war for the Spirit Hall to unify the continent.
But.
He sincerely felt that what Xue Qinghe said was not only an opportunity for him to control the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but also an opportunity for the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and for him.
He explained, "Father, there's no need to be so excited. Can you listen to Chen'er's thoughts first?"
Ning Fengzhi's cultivation is not low either. Although he has not reached the Soul Douluo level, he is also a Soul Sage of level 79. His physical fitness is far beyond the reach of ordinary people. At this moment, after hearing what Ning Chen said just now, he began to breathe heavily. It is conceivable how out of control his reaction and his emotions are!
What kind of position does Ning Chen occupy in his heart!
He was really angry!
Ning Fengzhi finally calmed down a little after Ning Chen comforted him. He looked at Ning Chen and glared at him: "You can say it, but don't mention going to Tiandou Royal Academy as a hostage again. Otherwise, even if I lead the disciples of the sect to attack the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and become enemies with Xue Qinghe, I will never let you go to the Prince's Mansion as a hostage!"
In his heart.
In the court of Tiandou Empire, although each of those ministers looks magnificent and like important figures on the surface, they are extremely despicable behind the scenes!
Although the Prince's Mansion is not as dangerous as the imperial court, it is also very dangerous. After all, Xue Qinghe has gradually begun to take power with the help of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. The ministers in the court, or the fence-sitters, have begun to leave Prince Xuexing and go to the Prince's Mansion to pledge their allegiance.
Although the danger level is not as high as Sunset Forest and Star Dou Great Forest where one can easily die in the mouths of soul beasts, it is still a den of dragons and tigers.
If you are not careful, you will end up with a torn body.
Therefore, he couldn't let Ning Chen fall into such a situation!
What's more, Tiandou Royal Academy is still in Xue Qinghe's hands!
You know, Prince Xue Xing has been in control of the Tiandou Royal Academy for more than ten years, but he has never been able to reach the level where Xue Qinghe is now, where his words can be followed in the Tiandou Royal Academy!
It almost became his one-man show!
As long as Ning Fengzhi was still alive, it would be no problem for Ning Chen to go to such a place.
But if one day the Jiubao Liuli Sect really falls out with the Tiandou royal family, then Ning Chen will be in danger!
"Father, do you still remember what you thought of Tiandou Royal Academy?" Although Ning Chen was asking a rhetorical question, he answered it directly: "You said that this is a paradise for poor people and civilian soul masters, a place for nobles to make friends, but not the best place for cultivation and learning. This is why I wanted to join Tiandou Royal Academy in the first place."
"If we want to develop, what we need most now is not gold soul coins or strength, but people. Whether it's the medicine hall, the disciples of the sect, or the Nine Treasures Academy we want to build, what we need are people."
"The reason why Xue Qinghe can call the shots at Tiandou Royal Academy is not only because he is a member of the royal family and a prince, but also because he was once a student at Tiandou Royal Academy."
"Although the Fourth Prince Xue Beng is still a student of Tiandou Royal Academy, in the eyes of those students, he is just a playboy. He cannot convince the people, the excellent students who have the potential to become powerful spirit masters."
"This is where Xue Beng made the biggest mistake. It is also one of the most important reasons why he and Prince Xue Xing cannot fully control the Tiandou Royal Academy."
"Because if you want to ascend to the throne of the emperor who is above all living beings and holds the power of life and death, it is not enough to be recognized by the previous emperor, you must also win the hearts of the people!"
The hearts of people here.
It does not refer to the common people, nor those poor and destitute people or common soul masters.
But the children of the nobles, royal relatives, aristocratic families, and sects.
What Tiandou Royal Academy has the most is the descendants of such people.
However, these people have always been arrogant. Although they are not very old, the idea of putting interests first has long been instilled in their worldview.
They will listen to whoever is in charge of Tiandou Royal Academy and can bring benefits to him and their family.
Whoever you support will become the new emperor of the Tiandou Empire.
To put it bluntly, in the original novel, if Xue Qinghe had not exposed his true identity as Qian Renxue, even if Xue Beng had been recognized by Emperor Xue Ye and obtained the legitimate inheritance of the throne.
In terms of people's hearts and momentum, no matter how considerate he was to the people after he ascended the throne, he was still far inferior to Xue Qinghe, who had established these people's connections and gained their support early on!
"What does this have to do with your desire to join Tiandou Royal Academy?" Ning Fengzhi knew that Ning Chen had said so much, and his ultimate goal was to join Tiandou Royal Academy and become a specially-appointed teacher of Tiandou Royal Academy, but he did not understand what Ning Chen meant by saying this.
"It's nothing."
Ning Chen shook his head. He couldn't just tell Ning Fengzhi now, "I know the real Xue Qinghe has been dead for many years. The Xue Qinghe who just appeared in front of you is the young master of the Spirit Hall, the future Angel God and Weeping God Qian Renxue, right?"
If that's the case, then it wouldn't be too incredible.
After all, even the Tiandou royal family couldn't tell whether the Xue Qinghe in front of them was real or fake. Everyone believed that the person in front of them would definitely become the future successor to the throne of the Tiandou Empire.
And now you say that he is from the Spirit Hall?
No matter who believes him after he says this, they will definitely regard his words as nonsense and think he is crazy.
"In fact, as I just said, we need to not only gain the world, but also the hearts of the people. If we want to make our sect stronger and become a behemoth that even the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire cannot move, then we must gain the support of all the nobles and become the true leader of the clan. Let them feel that only with our Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, the Heaven Dou Empire can continue to develop."
“No matter who will become the emperor of the Tiandou Empire in the future, they will not be able to move our Jiubao Liuli Sect. Let you, father, become a powerful minister that the emperor is afraid of, but cannot move us, a powerful minister who holds great power and can threaten the emperor’s rule!”
Ning Chen's eyes narrowed, and a gleam of light flashed in them.
"Chen'er, do you want to rebel?" Ning Fengzhi frowned.
I didn’t expect Ning Chen’s ambition to be so big.
Although he knew that Ning Chen had the ability, how difficult would it be to overthrow a sect that was deeply rooted in this continent with complicated factions and grow it into a country?
The road ahead is too difficult.
What's more, Chen'er is also a soul master with extremely strong talent.
Wouldn't this be a waste of his talent in cultivation?
You know, human energy is limited.
"Whether to rebel or not does not depend on me, but on how the current emperor views us."
"If he has no feelings towards me, then everything is fine. The ruler is the ruler and the subject is the subject."
Ning Chen continued, "If they think I am a thorn in their side and want to get rid of us as soon as possible, then what if we really risk the world's disapproval and rebel? The people of the world are with us, who can say that we are traitors?"
"Moreover, if I were the one in power, I would open up the world to all kinds of opinions, so that everyone in the world could have enough clothes to wear, enough food to eat, enough water to drink, enough to practice, and enough to learn. How could this world become a one-sided place where only the aristocratic families could have a monopoly and there was no way forward?"
Think of this.
Ning Chen still misses the flower-growing family in his previous life...
I don't know whether he has the ability to turn this ideal into reality in this life.
Become a god!
Become an immortal!
It has to be as soon as possible!
Otherwise, everything will become a bubble. Wishes are just wishes after all and will never come true.
"Chen'er, your father already understands your thoughts. However, this kind of thing only needs to be known between you and me. Don't tell anyone else. Otherwise, not only you and me, but the entire sect will face a devastating disaster." Ning Fengzhi said solemnly.
no way.
This kind of thing involves the interests of too many people.
The turmoil that will be caused will definitely be huge.
It is no less than a major reshuffle of all forces on the continent.
Ning Chen nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, father."
"Since my son has great ambitions and has let this matter go, then I have nothing more to say. I promise that you will join Tiandou Royal Academy and become a specially-appointed teacher under Xue Qinghe."
"However, you must remember... whatever you want to do, everything must be based on your own life. Taking care of yourself is the capital of struggle. If you lose your life because of success, everything will be more than worth it."
Ning Fengzhi reminded Ning Chen and passed on his experience to him.
"Father, don't worry, I'm still young. I'm only six years old now, and I cherish my life very much." Ning Chen smiled.
"Although you are young, if I am not mistaken, the fact that you can come to the sect hall to find your father today must be because something happened in Wutong Garden, and it is something you can't solve, right?" Ning Fengzhi said with a smile, as if he could see through what Ning Chen was thinking.
Ning Chen smiled bitterly and didn't respond.
Logically speaking, if he told Ning Fengzhi what happened in Wutong Garden, Ning Fengzhi would definitely lecture him like Jian Douluo and Ning Rongrong.
After all, what father doesn't want to see his son get married and start a family?
Enjoy family happiness?
"Well... nothing happened. Everything is under control. Don't worry, father." Ning Chen coughed and continued:
"Father, where is Grandpa Bones?"
"I want to go to Jiuchen City to see how far the Blacksmith Association has progressed so far."
"After all, the most important premise of everything my father and I just talked about is to build the Nine Treasures Academy. After I have established a certain prestige in the Tiandou Royal Academy, what I have to do is to attract all the talents in the world to our Nine Treasures Glazed Sect! To use them for my own benefit!"
“Hahahaha… brat, it turns out you still remember your Grandpa Bones. I thought you had forgotten about this old bone of mine!”
Just at this moment.
A hearty voice resounded throughout the sect hall.
A familiar figure, tall, strong, and upright, whose age could not be determined at all, appeared in front of Ning Fengzhi and Ning Chen.
