As soon as Xiao Wu stepped out of the private room, the hairs on her body stood on end.
A sharp sword intent suddenly descended.
Then, with a "whoosh!" sound, a sword light tore through the air and silently hovered half a foot in front of her.
The sword tip gleamed coldly, as if it could pierce through anything in the next instant.
Xiao Wu stood frozen in place, not daring to breathe.
She recognized the aura immediately; it belonged to the titled Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who had previously wielded a sword.
"What a magnificent transformation of a 100,000-year-old soul beast."
A cold, emotionless voice came from ahead.
Sword Douluo appeared silently, blocking their path. His sharp eyes, like unsheathed swords, pierced straight into Xiao Wu's soul.
"How dare you sneak into the auction house of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School once again."
Ning Liu raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly, stepped forward, and shielded Xiao Wu behind him.
"Elder Jian, please calm down."
Then, Ning Liu bowed slightly.
"I know this woman's background very well."
"Now, she's mine."
"Please rest assured, Elder."
"Your people?"
Sword Douluo's voice carried a hint of surprise, then his gaze swept over Ning Liu, his sharp sword intent not diminishing in the slightest.
"Ning Liu, do you know what you're saying?"
"You should know what a 100,000-year-old soul beast means!"
Xiao Wu stood behind Ning Liu, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly, her palms covered in cold sweat.
Then, she suddenly peeked out from behind Ning Liu, mustering her courage.
"I...I agree to marry Ning Liu!"
"From now on, I will at least be considered a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's inner circle. As an elder of the sect, you should naturally protect me, not harm me!"
The moment those words were spoken, the air seemed to freeze!
Ning Liu was also taken aback, turning his head to look at Xiao Wu, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
This girl reacts quickly and is so proactive?
A crack finally appeared on Sword Douluo's usually impassive face.
He stared at Xiao Wu, then at Ning Liu, his brows furrowed.
"Marry him?"
"really?"
This turn of events was completely unexpected.
Ning Liu coughed lightly and continued:
"That's right, Elder Jian. Marriage is a natural human thing."
He patted Xiaowu on the shoulder to reassure her.
“If a soul beast is reborn as a human, then it is a human. Since we are all family, there will naturally be no problem.”
Sword Douluo remained silent for a moment, the tip of the Seven Kill Sword trembled slightly, and then disappeared.
The suffocating sword intent also subsided.
"Since that's the case..."
Although Sword Douluo was somewhat puzzled, he still spoke up:
"I will not ask any further questions."
"However, this matter is of utmost importance, Ning Liu, you must take good care of yourself. You also need to give an explanation to the sect leader!"
"Thank you for your understanding, Elder Jian."
Ning Liu bowed again.
"It's getting late, Elder, you should rest early."
"I still need to take her to the Soul Hunting Forest outside Soto City to take care of some things. With Xu Jiushi by my side, that will be enough."
Xu Jiushi had arrived behind Ning Liu without anyone noticing. Upon hearing this, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Sword Douluo.
Sword Douluo looked at Ning Liu, then at Xiao Wu, and finally nodded.
"Go."
After saying that, he vanished in a flash, as if he had never been there.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu breathed a long sigh of relief, only to find that her back was completely soaked.
Ning Liu chuckled and took the first step.
"They're gone, my...wives?"
Xiao Wu blushed, stomped her foot, and quickly followed.
Not long after the three figures disappeared at the stairwell, a pretty figure came skipping and hopping over.
"Grandpa Sword! Grandpa Sword!"
Ning Rongrong looked around excitedly.
"Where is Brother Ning Liu?"
Sword Douluo reappeared, looking at Ning Rongrong with a somewhat complicated expression.
"He just left, saying he went to the Soul Hunter Forest in Soto City."
"Huh? What are we going to the Soul Hunter Forest for?"
Ning Rongrong was somewhat disappointed, but then became curious again.
Sword Douluo hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.
"Rongrong".
"Hmm? What's wrong, Grandpa Sword?"
Ning Rongrong tilted her head to look at him.
"Do you... like that Ning Liu?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong's face flushed bright red, and she stammered:
"Grandpa Jian! What...what nonsense are you talking about!"
"I know that the sect has rules."
"How could I..."
Her voice grew softer and softer, and she lowered her head.
Sword Douluo sighed.
Having lived for so many years, how could he not see through such a little trick?
"Grandpa can tell."
Ning Rongrong clutched the hem of her clothes, hesitant, but still asked in a low voice:
"Then... Grandpa Jian, do you support me?"
"If he truly cares for you, Grandpa will naturally not object."
Sword Douluo looked at Ning Rongrong like this, and a trace of affection flashed in his eyes.
"but……"
"But what?"
Ning Rongrong hurriedly pressed for more information.
Sword Douluo sighed again, his expression turning serious.
"Come with me, I have something to tell you."
Ning Rongrong's heart tightened, and she vaguely sensed that this was not a good thing, but she still obediently nodded.
"Um."
She followed Sword Douluo to the quiet room to the side.
...
Outside Soto city, along the official road under the cover of night.
Several figures moved slowly forward in the moonlight.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San, who seemed lost in thought, and said:
