Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 17 The Nobles’ Disgusting Methods

Fortunately, this kind of life did not last too long. After the major forces knew that Ning Fengzhi had a respected disciple, Xu Yang returned to his previous regular life.

But he felt a sense of being watched, and he didn't know if it was an illusion caused by this incident.

Unfortunately, this regular life did not last long. A month later, just as Xu Yang had absorbed the purple energy from the east and was about to go to dinner, he was told by the maid that Ning Fengzhi asked him to come over.

Knowing that this might be another gathering of some nobles, Xu Yang's face instantly fell.

Because of the corruption of the Tiandou Empire, most of the nobles here are just like those described in the novel: arrogant, overbearing and unreasonable. They look down on the common people and can show all kinds of ugly faces for the sake of profit.

Especially after knowing that Xu Yang was Ning Fengzhi's disciple, they all came to curry favor with him with fawning faces, using all kinds of means, such as letting the female slaves in their family and even their children seduce him, and putting drugs in his food and drink. If Ning Fengzhi had not reminded him and he had not been determined, he would have fallen into the trap.

These nobles knew that Xu Yang must be a genius to be favored by Ning Fengzhi, and his martial soul and innate soul power must be strong. They were attracted by this point. As long as one of their daughters could get pregnant, their family would have a stable and powerful martial soul inheritance.

They also knew that as long as they did not touch the bottom line of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, which was the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, other martial spirits would have to pay a little more price, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect would not be able to do much to them.

He is just a child now, is it necessary to treat him like this?

Since then, Xu Yang has hated these nobles and resolutely resisted communicating with them. But he had to participate because this was reality.

"Hey!"

Youyou sighed, and after Xu Yang washed and dressed, he changed his clothes and left the room.

"Teacher, can I not attend this party? Those nobles are really disgusting!" As soon as he entered the room, Xu Yang complained to Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Xu Yang's little expression and showed a helpless smile. He also knew the methods of those nobles. He didn't like them, but he had to face them. It is difficult to grow without experiencing some things.

"This isn't a party. You're going with me to the Tiandou Palace to meet Emperor Xue Ye and your future junior apprentice brother!"

“It’s good that it’s not a party!”

Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and understood who this junior brother was.

After a simple packing, Xu Yang, Jian Douluo Chen Xin, and Ning Fengzhi sat in the carriage and rushed to the palace. The road was smooth. As soon as the carriage entered Tiandou City, Xu Yang opened the carriage curtain and looked out.

He has been to Tiandou City many times during this period. It is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Tiandou Empire. It is the best in all aspects. It is rare to see civilians in simple clothes on the streets. Most of them are wealthy businessmen and nobles with luxurious clothes and noble temperament.

From time to time, students wearing the Tiandou Royal Academy uniforms would run by and play around.

Of course, there are also scenes where nobles oppress ordinary people. At first, based on his conscience in his previous life, Xu Yang wanted to intervene, but after seeing it so many times, he became numb and didn't bother to care. He could save them once, and he could save them many times. Ultimately, it was the result of the social structure, and it was not something he could change now.

We soon arrived at the palace. As soon as we entered the city gate, we could see a spacious avenue, comparable to the eight-lane highways of later generations. Both sides were planted with precious green plants, which were neatly trimmed and complemented the entire environment.

Not to mention the surrounding buildings, all made of the finest stone, exuding luxury. "Only the royal family knows how to enjoy themselves!"

Hearing Xu Yang's sigh, Ning Fengzhi just shook his head and said nothing.

Finally, Ning Fengzhi and Xu Yang were taken to a palace, which was a side hall. Xu Yang didn't know the specific name. In the middle of the palace stood a huge stone table, on which were many exquisite cakes, food and wine.

Emperor Xue Ye was chatting with Prince Xue Xing. Except for Xue Beng who was only two or three years old, the other three princes were all there, but they did not gather together. Instead, they each did their own things.

At this time, Xu Yang discovered that one of the children, who was one or two years older than him, looked at Ning Fengzhi with some resentment. Although it was hidden well, Xu Yang still noticed it.

"That's the Second Prince, Xue Luochuan. After hearing that I wanted to accept Xue Qinghe as my disciple, he started blaming me and even smashed everything in his house. He's a bit narrow-minded. Fortunately, I didn't choose him before."

Just as Xu Yang was about to remind Ning Fengzhi, he heard Ning Fengzhi's voice in his ears. Obviously, Ning Fengzhi also saw Xue Luochuan's eyes, and even investigated the reactions of other royal members a long time ago, otherwise he would not know what was going on in the prince's palace.

Xu Yang nodded without saying anything. His cultivation level was not yet high enough to transmit secret messages. However, his gaze was fixed on the black-haired boy next to the oldest blond boy.

The boy had a fake smile on his face and followed the blond boy gently and humbly. His clothes were not luxurious, at least compared to the people present, they were extremely simple. He looked like the blond boy's guard.

But what really caught Xu Yang's attention wasn't his attire, but a resonance stemming from his martial souls, as if they were somehow connected. This was something Xu Yang had only seen before, in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's library. It was a phenomenon that only occurred when two martial souls were extremely compatible, allowing them to unleash a fusion technique with 100% certainty.

"Qian Renxue?!"

Thinking of the attributes of his own martial soul, Xu Yang could only think of one, and that was the six-winged angel martial soul. In today's continent, only the Qian family possessed this martial soul, and in Tiandou City, only Qian Renxue had this martial soul.

As a divinely bestowed martial soul, the six-winged angel's martial soul not only has an innate soul power of level 20, but also possesses the two attributes of ultimate light and ultimate fire. It is similar to the sun martial soul, except that the sun martial soul is mainly based on fire attributes, while the six-winged angel's is mainly based on ultimate light. The two complement each other to a certain extent and can make up for the shortcomings that they themselves lack.

Qian Renxue obviously sensed it as well. She smiled and nodded at Xu Yang, then continued to follow Qian Renxue.

Xu Yang also nodded in response as a greeting, and then followed Ning Fengzhi to the presence of Emperor Xue Ye.

"Your Majesty, long time no see!"

"Xu Yang, I meet His Majesty!"

Seeing Ning Fengzhi saluting Emperor Xue Ye, Xu Yang quickly followed suit and imitated him in saluting.

"Master, is this your disciple? He is indeed a handsome man!" Emperor Xue Ye accepted the salute and asked Xu Yang with a smile.

"My disciple is naughty and has caused Your Majesty some worry!" Ning Fengzhi responded with a smile.
