Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 57 Reunion after a long absence

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the day when Tang Sect holds a birthday celebration for Tang San.

South of Tiandou City.

The former residence of the Li clan has now become the residence of the Tang clan after being transformed by the Yu clan.

Early in the morning, the gate opened under a plaque engraved with the words "Tangmen".

Luxurious carriages stopped in front of the compound one after another, and the dignitaries of Tiandou City walked out of the carriages.

The powerful and wealthy see each other every day. They are very familiar with each other and nod to each other.

Before entering the gate, the servant beside the dignitary took out the invitation, verified his identity, and was invited in by the gatekeeper.

At this time, two carriages were driving side by side on the street, arriving at Tangmen one after the other.

The carriage on the left has a white swan pattern carved in white marble, and the carriage on the right has a seven-story pagoda carved in glazed tiles.

Almost at the same time, three people got off each of the two carriages.

"Master Ning (teacher), His Majesty the Bone Douluo, Young Master Ning."

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, the Fourth Prince."

Among the six people, except for an unusually tall and skinny old man, the other five looked at each other and greeted each other politely.

"Feng Zhi originally thought that the emperor had only sent the crown prince and the fourth prince to the banquet, but he did not expect that Prince Xuexing would also condescend to attend the banquet."

Ning Fengzhi stood between Gu Rong and Ning Rongrong with a warm and friendly smile on his face.

On the opposite side, Prince Xuexing was also standing between Xue Qinghe and Xue Beng.

However, the same position also hides a mystery.

Ning Rongrong stood on the left of Ning Fengzhi, and Bone Douluo Gu Rong stood on the right of Ning Fengzhi.

As for the three members of the royal family, the Fourth Prince Xue Beng stood on the left of Prince Xue Xing, while the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe stood on the right of Prince Xue Xing.

The left has been respected since ancient times.

As the young master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong is also deeply loved by Gu Rong, so it makes sense for her to stand on the left side of the noble one.

But on the royal side, their stance has profound meaning.

As the younger brother of Emperor Xue Ye, it was natural for Prince Xue Xing to stand in the middle.

But the crown prince Xue Qinghe stood on the right side of Prince Xue Xing, while the fourth prince Xue Beng stood on the more honorable left side.

Ning Fengzhi, who had a keen eye, saw at a glance the problem with the positioning of the three royal family members.

As the teacher of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi would not fall out with Prince Xuexing over such a small matter, but it was only natural for him to make some sarcastic remarks.

Facing Ning Fengzhi's words, Prince Xuexing responded indifferently:

"Master Ning, you are joking. I am here only because my nephew is naughty by nature. I am afraid that he will do something that will damage the dignity of the royal family during this celebration."

"That's why I followed along, and by the way, I wanted to see what the Tang Sect leader is all about."

"But didn't Sect Master Ning condescend to bring his young sect master to attend the birthday celebration of a nine-year-old child?"

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi remained unmoved, with a gentle smile on his face, and said:

"The Tang Sect is an important partner of my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and we have frequent business dealings with each other."

"Now, the Tang Sect leader is holding a grand celebration for the first time. Since Feng Zhi has been invited, he will naturally not refuse this honor."

While they were talking, the carriage that Lin Rong was riding in also arrived here.

"Hmm?" Gu Rong, who had been silent all the time, suddenly looked to the side, staring at Lin Rong and the old butler Yu Yuan who got off the carriage with some suspicion.

To be precise, he was only staring at the old butler behind Lin Rong.

Gu Rong looked at the figure of the old housekeeper Yu Yuan, feeling somewhat surprised:
"Is this my illusion? I actually sensed a hint of danger from a Soul Douluo."

The attentive Ning Fengzhi noticed the subtle change in Gu Rong's expression, so he looked calmly at the master and servant who were approaching.

"Why don't you go in? What's the new thing here?"

Lin Rong pretended to be an eight-year-old child and asked curiously:
"Would you mind telling me about it?"

Among the six people, Ning Fengzhi was the first to speak:
"Duke Lin, I have heard of you from my daughter a long time ago. Seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed a great man of your time."

"Rongrong, why don't you say hello to Duke Lin?"

Ning Rongrong, who was standing aside, turned her gaze to Lin Rong after hearing what her father said.

Coincidentally, Lin Rong also turned her gaze to Ning Rongrong because of Ning Fengzhi's words.

The two of them stared at each other.

"This elite education is different!" Looking at Ning Rongrong, who seemed to have become a different person, Lin Rong couldn't help but think:

"This temperament, this demeanor, if this face hadn't changed, I wouldn't have believed this was Ning Rongrong."

Ning Rongrong recognized Lin Rong at the first sight even though they hadn't seen each other for more than two years. It was because of Lin Rong's words that she became what she is now.

At the beginning, Ning Rongrong resented Lin Rong.

But as time goes by, Ning Rongrong, who has received a good education, has understood what responsibility is.

The change in her own cognition also made Ning Rongrong realize that she was carrying the hopes of the entire sect on her shoulders.

Therefore, Ning Rongrong would no longer resent Lin Rong, but after meeting him again after two years, she could not help but feel some resentment in her heart.

However, the education she received over the years has taught Ning Rongrong to hide her emotions, and she did not show the grudges in her heart.

"Hello, Duke Lin, long time no see."

Ning Rongrong smiled elegantly and politely and greeted softly.

"Hello, Young Master Ning, long time no see."

Lin Rong also politely responded with a greeting, and then secretly checked the soul power cultivation of those present.

In life perception, the order of the soul power of these six people from high to low is:

Bone Banyan, soul power peak at level ninety-five.

Ning Fengzhi, soul power at the peak of level 79.

Snow Star, soul power level 55.

Xue Qinghe (Qian Renxue), soul power level 52.

Ning Rongrong, soul power level 36.

Avalanche, soul power level 22.

"Ning Rongrong's soul power is actually at level 36?" Lin Rong was a little surprised after investigating.

"I see. There are energy fluctuations from two soul bones in the body, one is a torso bone that is over 50,000 years old, and the other is a skull bone that is over 60,000 years old. They are both gem-type soul bones."

"Ning Fengzhi really spent a lot of money on this!"

"A thirty-sixth-level auxiliary soul master who is eight years and nine months old. This is the monster that Ning Fengzhi created using two top-grade soul bones that are more than fifty thousand years old."

"Fortunately, I am younger than Ning Rongrong, and my soul power is also higher than Ning Rongrong's."

"Otherwise, if I were surpassed in spirit power by a native of the same age, it would be a complete disgrace to the time traveler."

Lin Rong is now eight years and six months old, with a soul power level of thirty-seven, only one level higher than Ning Rongrong.

Lin Rong was not surprised by the soul power levels of the other five people.

Because of Gu Rong's talent, his soul power has been stuck at the peak of level 95 and has not made any progress.

Ning Fengzhi was limited by his martial soul, and his soul power had been stuck at the peak of level 79, unable to take another step forward.

Qian Renxue, in the original novel, was about thirty years old, a Soul Sage with a Soul Power of over seventy levels; it is normal that her Soul Power is only in the fifties now.

Xue Xing is a prince of a country. Although the quality of the swan martial soul inherited by the Tiandou royal family is not high, it is not too bad. His soul power cultivation is at level 55, which is normal.

Xue Beng, under the guidance of Xue Xing, concealed his incompetence and deliberately did not practice hard. His soul power cultivation level was level 22, which was normal.

"Duke Lin, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Xue Qinghe suddenly spoke up and greeted Lin Rong, and the smile on his face made people feel as refreshed as a spring breeze.

"That's right, that's right!" Just as Lin Rong was about to return the gift, Xue Beng beside him interrupted casually:

"Duke Lin, you never attend any social banquets held by Tiandou City."

"This is the first time this prince has seen you in person."

"Let me tell you, I know all the fun places in Tiandou City. Can I take you there someday?"

"..." Xue Beng's familiar words silenced Lin Rong.

What a superb acting skill. If Lin Rong had not read the original novel and knew that Xue Beng was pretending to be like this, he would have been fooled by him.

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly when Xue Beng interrupted him. He was about to say something when Prince Xue Xing spoke first:

"Haha! Don't blame Duke Lin!"

Xuexing stepped forward and said:

"This nephew of mine is a well-known playboy. I apologize for any offense I may have caused in my words just now."

Seeing this, Lin Rong had already realized that Xue Xing and Xue Beng just didn't want him to talk to Xue Qinghe.

As a hereditary duke, the Lin family has considerable influence in Tiandou. Xue Xing does not want Lin Rong to favor Xue Qinghe.

Therefore, he and his uncle and nephew Xue Beng tacitly used what had just happened to interrupt the polite greetings between Lin Rong and Xue Qinghe.
