Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 109 Jiang Nannan Who Sold Herself

"Okay, thank you this time." Hearing Jiang Nannan's reply, Bei Bei nodded and turned around with Xu Sanshi to quickly chase after Yan Shaozhe and the others in the direction they had left.

Although Jiang Nannan is beautiful, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi both have girlfriends, so they naturally don't pay much attention to her.

Beibei only has Tang Ya in her heart, while Xu Sanshi's girlfriend gave him her body in order to help him awaken the Xuanwu Martial Soul, and he is not the kind of person who is fickle.

After watching Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi leave, Jiang Nannan turned around and returned to Shrek City.

On the rooftop of Qunyu Pavilion, a gentle breeze stirred, causing the gauze curtains to flutter.

Ningguang sat gracefully at the table, gently raising her hand to pick up the teacup, slowly bringing it to her lips, taking a small sip of tea. Her movements were fluid and graceful, revealing her composure and elegance.

She looked up and saw Jiang Nannan returning from afar. Her expression was calm as she spoke softly, "You're back. Is she someone you know?"

Jiang Nannan walked steadily closer, nodded slightly, and her hair swayed gently with her movements: "Yes, they are indeed my two junior classmates."

As soon as she finished speaking, a fleeting moment of hesitation crossed her eyes.

Ningguang was incredibly perceptive; she immediately noticed Jiang Nannan's unusual behavior. With a faint smile, she said gently, "Ask me anything you want to ask."

Jiang Nannan took a deep breath, as if she had finally made up her mind, and asked in confusion, "Sister Ningguang, what is our relationship with the Wuchang Division? The people who attacked my two junior brothers, I saw that kind of outfit at Qunyu Pavilion before. Dean Yan said they were from the Wuchang Division."

Ningguang paused slightly, the teacup she had been gently swirling stopped in mid-air, and in an instant, a smile of interest appeared in her eyes: "Oh, the one who attacked your junior brother was from the Wuchang Division?"

Ningguang trusted Jiang Nannan implicitly.

In Shrek City, she has invested in and supported quite a few people, and Jiang Nannan is just one of them, but she values ​​Jiang Nannan very much.

This is not only because Jiang Nannan possesses outstanding beauty and considerable talent, but also because of her loyal and righteous character.

Ningguang once saved Jiang Nannan's mother, and since then, Jiang Nannan has regarded Ningguang as her most trusted older sister and followed her wholeheartedly.

Therefore, Jiang Nannan is a trusted confidante whom she has carefully nurtured and who will become her right-hand woman in the future, so there is no need to hide many things from her.

"You guessed right, the Impermanence Division and our Jade Pavilion can be considered colleagues."

Ningguang put down her teacup, folded her hands and placed them on her knees, and patiently explained, "You don't need to worry about this. They probably just accepted a job, and it's not that the people behind us are targeting your two junior classmates."

Her voice was soft, yet it carried a reassuring power.

"I understand, Sister Ningguang." Jiang Nannan nodded obediently, secretly relieved.

She knew in her heart that she would stand firmly on Ningguang's side no matter what, but she was indeed a student of Shrek Academy, even before Ningguang saved her mother. Now that she knew it wasn't Ningguang's idea, she was relieved to not be caught in a dilemma, which was truly a blessing.

Ningguang turned slightly to the side, shifting to a more comfortable sitting position. As if suddenly remembering something, she asked, "By the way, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is about to begin, and Shrek Academy should also start selecting reserve team members. Are you confident?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan's eyes instantly lit up with confidence. She puffed out her chest slightly and said firmly, "Don't worry, Sister Ningguang. In the outer courtyard, apart from Beibei and Xu Sanshi, very few people can threaten me. Plus, with the soul tools you gave me, I will definitely pass the selection."

In Shrek Academy's outer courtyard, Jiang Nannan is not only the most beautiful woman, but also a top expert. With the powerful soul tool provided by Ningguang, she is full of confidence in her strength.

Looking at Jiang Nannan's confident demeanor, Ningguang couldn't help but chuckle and tease, "I've heard of your reputation as the number one beauty in the outer academy. I wonder which man will be lucky enough to win your heart in the future?"

Jiang Nannan blushed slightly, affectionately took Ningguang's arm, and said coquettishly, "Sister Ningguang, it's all just empty titles. How can I compare to you? Besides, I've already decided to follow you for life. When you get married, I'll be your dowry maid."

In her heart, Ningguang was almost perfect. She was stunningly beautiful, incredibly strong, and owned the vast Qunyu Pavilion, a business that spanned the three kingdoms of the original Douluo Continent. It was hard to imagine what kind of man could be worthy of her.

If such a person were to appear, she would accept being a maidservant as part of her dowry.

"Oh, if you put it that way, then someone should be very happy." Ningguang's lips curled into a mysterious smile, as if she had remembered something interesting and was in a particularly pleasant mood.

Looking at Ningguang's smile, Jiang Nannan's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she felt inexplicably flustered. Could there really be such a person?
Wait a minute! Did she just unwittingly "sell" herself?

Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away in the void, space seemed to be torn apart by an invisible hand, and a transparent, serpentine phantom suddenly shot out.

It opened its blood-red maw, and with a spatial fluctuation, spat out several human figures. Then, the serpentine phantom twisted its body and disappeared into the void again, vanishing instantly as if it had never existed.

"Thank you so much, Lord Mebius, for saving my life!"

Even after the illusory figure disappeared, Bai Shisan, Hei Shisi, and the others remained respectfully bowing in the direction it had departed, not rising for a long time.

Mebius was a great figure on par with their Lord Yama, and moreover, their savior. They would never forget this kindness.

The reason they dared to attack Shrek Academy disciples outside Shrek City was that even though Huo Yuhao had sent out a distress signal and Bei Bei and others had quickly come to their aid, they remained fearless.

Because they knew all too well the immense power behind them.

As they expected, the renowned Taotie Douluo was easily and severely injured by Lord Mebius. In the face of absolute power, Shrek Academy was nothing more than that.

The thought of their Lord Yama's immense power, and the strength that Mebius had just displayed, fueled an even stronger fervor in their eyes, which was almost burning with rage.

Although they failed to kill Huo Yuhao this time, their mission was completed. After all, their superiors only required them to do their best, and regardless of whether Huo Yuhao lived or died, the mission was considered accomplished.

In Haiyuan City, the night was as still as water, and the moonlight spilled onto the streets and alleys.

Lu Jingming stood quietly in the courtyard, watching the silver-haired girl surrounded by fireflies in the darkness.

The girl seemed to be enveloped in a dreamlike halo, as beautiful as an elf who had stepped out of a fairy tale. At that moment, Lu Jingming received a message from Ji Yingying.

After he finished reading and learned the whole story, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing a meaningful smile, and the doubts in his heart were also resolved.

As it turns out, luck, while having an effect, is not a panacea.

A person with strong luck can indeed turn bad luck into good and is more likely to obtain various opportunities.

However, if one's own strength is too weak, one is easily interfered with by stronger people.

Once a higher-level force intervenes, the so-called luck will be difficult to exert its influence.

Just like Huo Yuhao, although his luck brought him many opportunities and his strength increased rapidly, he still could not withstand the schemes of a powerful figure like Tang San, the God of the Sea.

This test by Lu Jingming brought Huo Yuhao an unexpected ordeal.

Thinking of Xu Tianran, who also lost the most important thing in a man and whose personality changed drastically as a result, a playful smile appeared on Lu Jingming's face.

He couldn't help but wonder if Huo Yuhao would also be affected by this and have his personality changed?
What would Huo Yuhao think if Shrek Academy mishandled this incident? Lu Jingming was filled with anticipation.

"Ah Ming, let's go get some late-night snacks!" Like a cheerful little deer, Liu Ying skipped and hopped to Lu Jingming's side, took his hand, tilted her head back, and her pink-blue eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"Okay!" Lu Jingming gently stroked Liu Ying's delicate nose, his main expression being one of doting affection.

Then, he let Liu Ying lead him by the hand and walked towards the brightly lit and bustling Haiyuan City.

In a corner of Shrek Academy, the atmosphere was so heavy it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it.

"How is it? What happened? What's the situation?" A petite girl, her twin emerald green braids swaying slightly with her anxious movements, stared intently at the closed door, as if trying to see through it to the scene inside.

"Yes, how exactly is Xiao Yuhao?" Tang Ya was also standing to the side, craning her neck and peeking around, wishing she could rush into the room and see Huo Yuhao's condition clearly.

Before long, the door to the room swayed slowly, and an elderly man dressed in a plain white robe walked out steadily.

He was Elder Zhuang, the elder of the Sea God Pavilion whom Shrek Academy invited to treat Huo Yuhao.

Elder Zhuang's martial soul is the Tree of Life. As a titled Douluo of the healing type, his healing ability is unparalleled in the entire soul master world.

"Elder Zhuang, what exactly is the situation?" Yan Shaozhe stepped forward quickly and asked.

Old Zhuang slowly raised his head, glanced at everyone, then slowly shook his head and sighed heavily: "His life is not in danger, but... alas!"

This sigh was like a heavy hammer blow, striking everyone's hearts.

In an instant, everyone fell silent.

They all knew where Huo Yuhao was injured. It was fortunate that he was out of danger, but the damage to that vital part was an unbearable blow for any man.

"Dean Yan, who is so ruthless as to want to harm Huo Yuhao?" a woman wearing glasses asked.

Her face was aged and serious, and her eyes behind her glasses were full of anger and concern, which was also the common question in the hearts of many people who cared about Huo Yuhao.

Yan Shaozhe shook his head helplessly and said in a low voice, "The ones who did it were the Black and White Impermanence of the Impermanence Division, but they were just hired assassins. We are still investigating the mastermind behind it all."

In fact, Shrek Academy's investigation has already made progress, and the clues, like vines, are gradually leading to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

Yan Shaozhe had a vague idea in his mind that the culprit who hired someone to commit murder could be Dai Huabin.
However, things are far from that simple.

Firstly, there is insufficient evidence. Dai Huabin was also quite cautious in his actions this time. The person who hired Wuchangsi was just a servant of the White Tiger Duke's mansion. It is unrealistic to convict him based on this.

Secondly, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion holds a high position and great power in the Star Luo Empire, with its influence deeply entrenched.

The situation escalated from a mere conflict between two juniors, involving the Star Luo Empire and the White Tiger Duke. Even if Shrek Academy tries to protect its own, it still has to weigh the stakes involved.

Moreover, Dai Huabin is also a disciple of Shrek Academy.

The ancestor of the White Tiger lineage was none other than Dai Mubai, one of the original Shrek Seven Devils of Shrek Academy and the renowned God of War.

For many years, the White Tiger lineage and Shrek Academy have maintained a delicate alliance. Now, both of the White Tiger Duke's sons have joined Shrek Academy. If it weren't for the other one's slightly lacking talent, he would probably have already entered the academy's gates.

Given such a complex situation, it would be almost impossible for Shrek Academy to severely punish Dai Huabin.

Yan Shaozhe himself would not agree to a complete break with the White Tiger lineage for the sake of Huo Yuhao, who is not yet fully grown, let alone the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

Although Huo Yuhao possesses exceptional talent and is highly valued by the academy, he is currently only a promising genius.

In the deliberations of the academy's higher-ups, it was clear that his value, given his still immature development, was indeed inferior to that of the deeply rooted White Tiger lineage.

Therefore, the best approach right now is to minimize the problem and resolve it altogether.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao only suffered physical damage and was not without hope. As long as he was alive, there was still hope.
