Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 353 Let's talk about ideals, haha.

On the other side, Ning Wuque first made an appointment with Xiao Hongchen to go out for drinks that evening, and then returned to the hotel where Shrek Academy was located. He then pulled Ning Tian and Wu Feng, along with the ancient dragon who had appeared, to chat about what had happened during the day.

"So, Wuque, what's your choice? Are you going to abandon me and Fengmei and run off into the arms of the Sun Moon Empire's princess and noblewoman?"

Ning Tian feigned heartbreak and threw herself into Wu Feng's arms, holding his hand and looking at Ning Wuque with a pitiful expression. However, not a single tear could be squeezed from her eyes, making her performance obvious.

Wu Feng wasn't very good at acting, so he simply stared at Ning Wuque without saying a word, giving him an expression that said, "You have to give me an explanation today."

Ning Wuque felt helpless. Didn't Ning Tian and Wu Feng know who he was? But since the two of them were doing this, he played along, saying, "How could that be! This is slander! This is slander against me! My feelings for you are as clear as day and night. I would go through fire and water for you without batting an eye. How could Xu Tianran change that with just a few words?"

"Hey, you passed. So, Wuque, what are your plans? Are you really going to agree to Xu Tianran's offer? Although moving will indeed cause the sect to lose a considerable amount of property and abandon a lot of things, our Ning family will fully support you if you're willing!"

Moving aside, Ning Tian sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Ning Wuque in front of her with a determined glint in her eyes. She couldn't guarantee the other families' future, but the Ning family would definitely stand with Ning Wuque through thick and thin!

In response, both Wu Feng and Gu Long declared, "If my old man doesn't agree, then I'll take his coffin money and go with you!"

"I will speak to the Gu family. Our Gu family has cultivated diligently for generations, and our actual wealth is probably less than one ten-thousandth of that of the Ning family. We don't need to pack anything when we leave. It's just a pity for our ancestors who are still here at the mountain gate. I hope they can forgive us in heaven."

It's not shameful to temporarily leave Douluo Continent. Hibernation is for a better return, just like a cicada sleeping for half its life before waking up. There's nothing wrong with hiding away and avoiding the limelight for the sake of continuation and the future.

Ning Wuque was moved by this, feeling that his life had been perfect. However, he gently shook his head at the three of them: "No, although running away is a direct and efficient method, who would choose to run away if given the opportunity? I plan to talk to Xiao Hongchen tonight."

"Laughing at the Mortal World? What do you want to talk to him about?"

Ning Tian was puzzled. If Ning Wuque didn't intend to run away, wouldn't he have no choice but to accept the marriage alliance? Otherwise, with the original strength of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, unless the two from the Haotian Sect were included, they would have absolutely no chance of winning against the current Sun Moon Empire!

If Ning Wuque really intends to compromise, then Ning Tian will understand him. Besides, can Xiao Xiaomeng Hongchen and Xu Tianran compare to her? They are just concubines from two political marriages.

But now she doesn't understand. Xiao Hongchen is just the young master of the Hongchen family of Mingdetang. He can't make any real changes. What's the use of looking for him?

Ning Wuque shook his head slightly at this: "Don't underestimate Xiao Hongchen. His decisions can play a decisive role to a large extent. If I can't persuade him to join me in doing something big tonight, then let's pack our things and prepare to leave at any time."

"Great-grandfather, if you had become a Limit Douluo, how many people would you have been able to lead on long journeys? The existence of the Sun Moon Continent proves that this world is not just one continent."

"I'm not sure either. With my current abilities, I could easily carry several hundred people on a long journey. As long as someone replenishes my soul power, I can last for at least a few months."

Gu Long was very confident, and he also understood the hidden meaning in Ning Wuque's words: as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn!

"Here, take this. I need to apologize for what happened today, but you know me, I would never do anything to betray Grandpa."

Inside the private room on the top floor of the Mingde Grand Hotel, while waiting for the food and drinks to be served, Xiao Hongchen tossed a ring-shaped storage soul tool to Ning Wuque opposite him.

The latter reached out and took it, then waved his hand. If he were to blame Xiao Hongchen for these things, he would be too petty. Everyone has moments when they are caught in a dilemma.

"What's in here?"

"These are my notes from after I became a Soul Master. They record some of my learning insights. They can't compare to professional, systematic teaching, but maybe some people can understand them? Levels one to seven, including the Ascension Soul Tool. Consider this my apology to you. I was involved in both of these incidents, and to be honest, I feel quite embarrassed. Sigh—"

"A genius like you probably makes your notes look like gibberish to most people. But never mind, I'll accept this apology gift. I had something else to discuss with you today, and I'll need your help with that."

Ning Wuque casually accepted the storage soul tool ring, not caring whether Xiao Hongchen's apology gift was good or bad, but he accepted the sentiment.

After all, Xiao Hongchen is a genius soul master who appears only once in a thousand years. Even for ordinary people, reading his notes would be like reading a book written in heaven.

Across from him, Xiao Hongchen laughed heartily: "Haha, it's rare for you to ask me for help. I thought you weren't the kind of person who would run into trouble at all."

"I'm not a god. Even a god might encounter troubles that require help."

Ning Wuque retorted, and while they were talking, a waiter brought in the drinks. He gestured to Xiao Hongchen to stop as he was about to open the wine and pour the cup.

The latter stopped moving and then looked at Ning Wuque in front of him with a smile.

He took a wine glass, filled it with red wine, and then, with a flick of his wrist, used his soul power and superb mental strength to deliver it accurately to Xiao Hongchen without spilling a drop!

"Let's do it!"

"Dry!"

The two men clinked their glasses in mid-air, then each downed a drink in one gulp. Only after their glasses were empty did Ning Wuque, still holding his glass, look at Xiao Hongchen and say, "Xiao, what do you think of the world now? I'm not referring to the world itself, but—the future."

"What do you mean by that? Let me make this clear, I'm not going to be crazy enough to go along with your nonsense. I have my grandfather and sister to take care of, unless—"

"Don't rush me, I just want to hear what your vision of the future looks like."

"Hehehe————"

Shaking his head, Xiao Hongchen's face flushed slightly before his eyes narrowed. He then took out a level nine soul tool from his storage soul tool.

After pressing the switch, a barrier unfolded, completely isolating the entire private room from the outside world: "My grandfather gave me this level nine soul tool for self-defense, [Red Dust Stained], which can deceive any soul tool signal of the same level, and at the same time, it is almost absolutely safe within the barrier."
