Ning Rongrong was startled when she heard Li An's voice outside the door.
Sect Master Ning? Sword Douluo? Bone Douluo?
How did they end up here?
Could it be... that someone is stalking me?
A surge of anger welled up inside me.
What right do they have to follow me?! I'm an adult!
Then, anger was replaced by another emotion—tension.
She subconsciously touched her empty storage soul tool.
I've spent all my allowance.
And... the ledger!
Dad was definitely there the whole time of the auction! So what about me...?
Ning Liu never expected that Ning Fengzhi and his group would come knocking on his door so quickly.
Having just broken through and evolved his martial soul, he probably can't hide it anymore.
However, he glanced at Ning Rongrong beside him and understood.
It's mostly because of her.
Fortunately, he had just summoned the Title Douluo Guardian.
Otherwise, the pressure would be too great facing the sect master and two guardian Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Liu took a deep breath, the fluctuations of his newly broken-through soul power gradually subsided, and he turned to Ning Rongrong and said:
"Rongrong, tidy yourself up and put away your soft nails."
Ning Rongrong finally snapped out of her panic and hurriedly put the Moonlit Rabbit Armor into her storage soul tool. She then took out a small box and haphazardly wiped it on her cheek.
Ning Liu's mind stirred.
"System, summon Xuanwu Douluo."
A figure appeared out of nowhere beside Ning Liu.
The newcomer was tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and fierce eyes, dressed in a black outfit; it was Xu Jiushi.
The moment Xu Jiushi appeared, his eyes were somewhat confused.
Where is this?
Immediately afterwards, a flood of information entered his mind.
Protect Ningliu.
This is his only mission.
Xu Jiushi immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to Ning Xingliu:
"Your subordinate Xu Jiushi greets Your Majesty."
Ning Liu quickly helped him up.
"No need for formalities, from now on we can just call each other brothers."
Although everything the system gave him was loyal.
However, he was still somewhat unaccustomed to having a level 96 Title Douluo perform such a grand salute to him.
"My lord, this..."
Xu Jiushi hesitated for a moment.
Ning Liu waved his hand:
"It's settled then. From now on, I'll call you Brother Shi."
Ang Lee, standing outside the door, was so anxious he was about to jump up and down.
"Master, are you alright? Sect Leader Ning and the others..."
"They're here."
Ning Liu responded and, leading Ning Rongrong and Xu Jiushi, opened the door to the venue owner's room.
When Li An saw Xu Jiushi behind Ning Liu, his pupils suddenly contracted.
What a powerful aura! They look extraordinary!
Who is this person? Is he the owner's new bodyguard?
He didn't dare ask any more questions and quickly led the three of them to the VIP room.
In the VIP room, Ning Fengzhi sat in the main seat, with Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong standing on his left and right respectively.
The three men had different expressions.
Ning Fengzhi wore a gentle smile, but there was a subtle, almost imperceptible scrutiny in the depths of his eyes.
Sword Douluo remained as aloof as ever, seemingly unconcerned about anything, while Bone Douluo appeared somewhat impatient, as if he were quite unaccustomed to this kind of waiting.
As soon as Ning Rongrong entered the door, she saw Ning Fengzhi.
She trotted up and called out sweetly:
"Dad, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, what brings you here?"
Ning Fengzhi's smile remained unchanged, but his tone carried a hint of reproach:
"Rongrong, you skipped school again! This time you have to promise me you'll go back to Shrek Academy!"
Ning Rongrong pouted her little mouth.
"I don't want to go back! Those teachers are all boring, I'd rather stay with Senior Brother Ning Liu!"
As she spoke, she glanced back at Ning Liu.
When Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo saw Ning Rongrong like this and looked at the way she was looking at Ning Liu, their hearts skipped a beat.
This girl, could she be...?
Ning Liu stepped forward and bowed in greeting:
"Ning Liu, a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, greets the Sect Master, Elder Sword, and Elder Bone."
Ning Fengzhi and the other two then focused their attention entirely on Ning Liu.
At just one glance, the expressions of the three of them changed simultaneously!
A glint of light flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes.
"Ning Liu, your soul power..."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo also looked solemn.
They keenly sensed that the soul power fluctuations emanating from Ning Liu had already reached the level of a level 52 Soul King!
Moreover, this soul power fluctuation seems to be more solid than that of an ordinary Soul King!
How is that possible?
Not long ago, Ning Liu was just a Great Soul Master!
How long has it been since he broke through to the Soul King level?
What alarmed them even more was the burly man in black behind Ning Liu!
Title Douluo!
It definitely has the aura of a Title Douluo!
Ning Fengzhi's tone carried a hint of disbelief:
"Ning Liu, your martial soul has broken through its limitations? And you're already a Soul King?"
Ning Liu smiled slightly, making no attempt to hide anything.
"Reporting to the sect master, I was fortunate that my martial spirit has evolved and my soul power has also improved slightly."
With a thought, he suddenly released the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul!
Yellow, yellow, black, black, black!
Five spirit rings!
When the pagoda, shimmering with nine-colored light, appeared in Ning Liu's palm, the air in the entire VIP room seemed to freeze.
Ning Fengzhi suddenly stood up from his seat and exclaimed in surprise:
"Nine...Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
His voice trembled violently.
Nine-Jeweled Glazed Pagoda!
This is a legend that only exists in the oldest books of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!
