Douluo: Adventure Begins from Wuhun City

Chapter 164 Visiting the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the Excited Ning Fengzhi

When they reached halfway up the mountain, Chen Yao and the other man were stopped.

When the two guards saw the peerlessly beautiful Gu Yuena, they were stunned for a moment, swallowed their saliva, then with difficulty they turned their gaze away from her, looked at Chen Yao, and spoke.

"You two, the place ahead is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. If you wish to visit, please show your ID."

Chen Yao nodded when he heard this, then took out a token from his arms, handed it to the guard in front of him, and chuckled.

"Please give it to Sect Master Ning for review."

After taking the token from Chen Yao's hand and taking a quick look at it, the expressions of the two guards suddenly changed. When they looked at Chen Yao again, there was more solemnity in their eyes.

"Please wait for a moment, I will go and inform you right away!"

After paying his respects to Chen Yao, one of the guards took the token and quickly headed towards the mountain.

This is a magnificent palace, where luxury and elegance are integrated into every detail. Whether it is the intricately crafted handicrafts or the luxurious and comfortable fabrics, it is a feast for the eyes and makes people feel noble and gorgeous.

The hall was a little empty at the moment, with only three or two people. One of them was a tall, slightly immature girl, who was quite lively. She surrounded the two old men who were dressed in black and white, chattering away, but it did not make people feel irritated. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like a cheerful lark, which made the two old men smile and look at the girl with loving eyes.

Not far away, sitting on a chair made of gold and sparkling gems, a handsome man with a somewhat elegant temperament looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

The look he gave the girl was full of doting, but at the same time there was a flash of memories and worry.

"I don't know how Brother Chen is doing these days. There has been no news from him for so many years. Could it be that he has been found by the Spirit Hall?"

As the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi naturally knew about the wanted order issued by the Spirit Hall that had spread throughout the continent.

Ning Fengzhi did not have his wife's sharp intuition. He did not recognize Chen Yao, whose appearance had changed on the wanted poster. He just glanced at him and ignored him.

Later in the Star Dou Forest, because of the matter of his wife and daughter, and Chen Yao's explanation to him, he attributed the familiarity of Chen Yao to the one encounter that year, and did not think of the Spirit Hall wanted order that he had glanced at.

After returning to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi gradually recovered from his wife's grief and took up his affairs again. He suddenly recalled the contents of the wanted poster and immediately had some ideas.

Although he had had some contact with the Spirit Hall over the years and helped them search for Tang Hao's whereabouts, Ning Fengzhi, as one of the top three sects, was naturally unwilling to surrender.

Thinking about what he had witnessed with his own eyes, all the unexpected things about Chen Yao, and the special treatment that Spirit Hall had for him, Ning Fengzhi wanted to get in touch with Chen Yao again even more. Even though he couldn't get him to completely join the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he also wanted to establish a good relationship with him.

With the seemingly irreconcilable and endless hatred between the Spirit Hall and Chen Yao that seems to be irreconcilable to outsiders, if his Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect wants to resist the Spirit Hall in the future, Chen Yao will definitely be a great help!

But unfortunately, Ning Fengzhi waited day and night, but never received any news from Chen Yao, which made him feel extremely regretful.

"Alright, Rongrong, you've had enough fun, it's time to practice. Even though you have an innate level 9 soul power, you must not slack off in your practice!"

With a sigh of relief in his heart, Ning Fengzhi suppressed all his thoughts, slowly stood up, put on a serious attitude, and spoke to the girl.

After hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, Ning Rongrong's cheerful expression froze and became a little depressed. She pursed her lips and muttered.

"understood"

As he said this, he was about to walk out of the hall.

However, at this moment, a black shadow flashed outside the hall. Ning Rongrong was slightly stunned when she saw it. When she looked carefully, she saw a guard kneeling on one knee in front of the hall door, holding a token in both hands, and said respectfully.

"Master, two people have come down the mountain to visit us. They brought a token of gratitude with them. Please have a look at it!"

Ning Fengzhi hadn't reacted yet when these words came out, but Ning Rongrong became curious first. In her impression, the guests who could have the guards come here to report were generally the senior executives and dignitaries in Tiandou City. She had seen most of them, and she didn't know who was coming this time.

Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong walked forward, wanting to see what the guard's token looked like, but before Ning Rongrong stretched out her hand, a noise came from behind.

Ning Rongrong turned around in surprise, and was astonished to see that her father, who was usually calm and composed and never changed his expression in the face of anything, actually ran over with an excited look on his face and snatched the token from the guard's hand.

"Is this the token I gave to Brother Chen back then?"

"Brother Chen? Is there anyone with the last name Chen among my father's friends? How come I don't know him?"

Ning Rongrong looked at Ning Fengzhi's excited expression and couldn't help scratching her head, feeling confused.

But before Ning Rongrong could think too much, Ning Fengzhi exclaimed with joy.

"Quick, let those two come up!"

"No, I want to go and greet him myself."

Then he grabbed the arm of Ning Rongrong, who was still a little confused, and said.

"Come on, Rongrong, I'll take you to meet your adoptive father!"

"Adoptive father?!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes were filled with shock and her face was confused, but before she could ask anything, she was taken by Ning Fengzhi out of the hall.

Halfway through the walk, Ning Rongrong finally reacted, and some vague memories began to emerge in her mind.

It was a scene of her kneeling on her knees. She vaguely remembered that her father's attitude at that time was very tough, which made her feel extremely wronged. The man in front of her at that time, his face had become blurred with the passage of time.

But in her impression, she could tell that he was a very handsome man, and she also clearly remembered the evil smile on the corner of his mouth after he kowtowed three times.

Four years ago, although she was still ignorant, she was able to remember things.

"Godfather?"

At this time, Ning Rongrong had roughly remembered it, and also remembered that it was this man who saved her life and prevented her from falling into the food of the soul beast. This was also the reason why, although Ning Rongrong was a little resistant to the word "godfather" from Ning Fengzhi's mouth, there was still a little curiosity and expectation in her eyes, and she also wanted to meet the man who had become blurred in her memory.

Speed ​​is a compulsory course for auxiliary soul masters, so with the blessing of soul power, Ning Fengzhi's speed is not slow, and he soon brought Ning Rongrong to the place where the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect set up a checkpoint halfway up the mountain.

However, when Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong saw the two people waiting outside the card, their faces froze and they were slightly stunned. A man and a woman, the woman had an extraordinary temperament, giving people a sense of alienation and coldness, and her face was breathtakingly beautiful. Even Ning Fengzhi, who was in a high position, couldn't help but stare at them in a daze.

And having such a confidante by his side is completely consistent with Ning Fengzhi's impression of Chen Yao back then.

But the man next to the woman looked a little unsightly. To say that he had an ordinary appearance was a bit of an exaggeration. He was completely different from the charming face of Chen Yao back then. They were completely not the same person!

"I wonder who you two are?"

For a moment, Ning Fengzhi's inner excitement cooled down a little. With doubt in his heart, he took Ning Rongrong forward and asked tentatively.

"Sect Master Ning, it's been a long time since we last met in the Star Dou Forest."

Facing Ning Fengzhi's suspicious gaze, Chen Yao was not surprised. He grinned, revealing a row of big, bumpy yellow teeth, and stated his identity.

"It's really Brother Chen!"

After Ning Fengzhi heard the familiar tone, his face was finally filled with joy again and he hurried forward.

"Haha, Sect Master Ning is still so polite."

Seeing Ning Fengzhi acting so serious, Chen Yao couldn't help but smile.

"Brother Chen has come to visit us. How can I, Ning Fengzhi, not treat you with courtesy?"

Ning Fengzhi chuckled, then pulled Ning Rongrong beside him and drank.

"Rongrong, what are you doing standing there? You've just met your foster father, why don't you pay your respects quickly?"

Ning Rongrong's face suddenly turned bitter when she heard this. Although she didn't have much good feelings towards her adoptive father and was even afraid of him, she still remembered that he was a very handsome man. But how come he turned into such an ugly old man now?
For a moment, Ning Rongrong's heart was full of resistance and disgust. She was about to refuse, but suddenly she felt Ning Fengzhi's stern gaze. She was frightened again and realized that this was not the usual time when Ning Fengzhi would tolerate her mischief. She could only suppress the grievance in her heart, bowed solemnly to the ugly face in front of her, and spoke in a slightly aggrieved tone.

"Rongrong meets his adoptive father!"

"Haha, in the blink of an eye, little Rongrong has grown up so much."

Chen Yao chuckled, then stretched out his hand and stroked Ning Rongrong's head.

Looking at the hand with a black leather glove reaching out, Ning Rongrong shuddered and subconsciously wanted to dodge, but when she thought of Ning Fengzhi's stern gaze, she gritted her teeth, controlled her body, stood still, and let Chen Yao's hand come closer.

But as Chen Yao approached, the rotten stench that he had expected did not come. Instead, a cool and subtle fragrance slowly spread, lingering around his upturned nose and penetrating into his heart, causing Ning Rongrong's originally tense body to gradually relax, and the resistance in her heart was also reduced a lot.

Feeling the gentle touch on her head, Ning Rongrong felt that the ugly and wretched face in front of her seemed to suddenly become kind and benevolent, blinking her big eyes as bright as gems and looking at her carefully.

Seeing the harmonious scene between Chen Yao and Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi's mouth curled up and his mood became very good. He also took this opportunity to ask the doubts in his heart.

"Brother Chen, I haven't seen you for many years. I still remember your heroic appearance back then. Even I couldn't help but feel emotional. How come you are like this now?"

When these words were spoken, even Ning Rongrong pricked up her ears. She was very curious about the man who had changed so much in her impression of him.

"Sect Master Ning must know something about my situation. I have taken some measures just in case. Since even Sect Master Ning has not seen through me, I feel relieved."

Chen Yao explained with a chuckle, not deliberately hiding anything.

"I see."

Ning Fengzhi understood immediately after hearing that and nodded, then looked at Gu Yuena beside Chen Yao with a strange look in his eyes. It was not only because of her stunning appearance, but also because of the fluctuation of soul power on her body that Ning Fengzhi had to pay attention to. If he estimated it roughly, she was probably not inferior to Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.

Such a super master actually followed Chen Yao with a protective attitude, which made Ning Fengzhi pay more attention to Chen Yao.

However, he did not ask any more rash questions, but said with a kind smile.

"Okay, Brother Chen, let's go up first. Let me do my best to be a good host. We'll have a good chat at the banquet later!"

Chen Yao also nodded.

"The guest does as the host does."

Then, the group, led by Ning Fengzhi, slowly walked towards the palace on the top of the mountain.

After reaching the top of the mountain, Ning Fengzhi first took Chen Yao and Gu Yuena for a casual stroll. After introducing them, they parted ways for the time being. Led by two maids, they went to an extremely luxurious room to stay. After bathing and changing clothes, they came to the palace in the center under the guidance of the maids.

At this moment, the dinner has been arranged in the hall. On the gorgeous dining table of about one hundred meters, there are a variety of dishes that are dazzling, making people salivate.

Seeing Chen Yao and the other two coming, Ning Fengzhi's face was filled with joy. He stood up and gestured with his hand.

"Brother Chen, please sit down!"

Chen Yao nodded, walked in with Gu Yuena, and chuckled.

"Sect Master Ning is too polite."

Afterwards, the two of them took their seats generously. Then, two old acquaintances appeared in the hall, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo. After a friendly nod to the two, the banquet officially began. As several people toasted each other, the atmosphere gradually heated up.

Ning Fengzhi saw that the time was ripe and asked Chen Yao about his doubts.

"By the way, Brother Chen, I haven't asked the person next to you yet..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ning Rongrong's expression changed, and she glanced secretly towards Chen Yao's side. She was also very curious about the beautiful and somewhat unreal sister who was following her cheap godfather.

The same was true for Jian and Bone Douluo who were sitting beside them. They could also feel the terrifying soul power of this woman, and there was a curiosity in their eyes.

"Her name is Gu Yuena. She follows me mainly to ensure my safety. Now I have some health problems and need to recuperate. So I'm afraid I will have to nag Sect Master Ning for the next period of time."

Chen Yao did not hide anything. After casually introducing Gu Yuena, he also stated the reason for his visit.
