Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 16, Section 16: Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin

Standing behind Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin nodded to Zhongli and Paimeng as a polite gesture.

Such is the extent of a mere nodding acquaintance.

Then, Chen Xin uttered two words.

his name.

"Dust in the heart".

Chen Xin, Martial Soul: Seven Kill Sword, Level 96 Super Douluo, one of the Supreme Elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The reason why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School established the position of Supreme Elder is to distinguish the greatest contributors to protecting the sect from ordinary elders.

If there were no position of Supreme Elder, wouldn't Chen Xin and Gu Rong be ranked alongside some Soul Douluos, or even some direct descendant Soul Saints?

Isn't this an insult to a Title Douluo?

To distinguish between them while also giving sufficient face to the titled Douluo, the Supreme Elders were created.

The Supreme Elder holds a position equivalent to that of the Sect Master, but the final decision-making power still rests with the Sect Master.

This is the last line of defense for the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

There's nothing they can do; they have no fighting ability and can only assist others and rely on others to survive in this cruel Douluo Continent.

After the two finished their introductions, they discussed "Easy Offense and Defense".

Paimon didn't hesitate either, flying to Zhongli's side and saying very politely, "Hello, Sect Master Ning Fengzhi!"

"Hello there, handsome Grandpa Chenxin!"

"I am Paimon, Pai of Paimon, Meng of Paimon."

"He is Zhong Li."

She was all too familiar with this way of greeting.

"Interesting little guy, such a martial spirit is simply a miracle."

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin thought to themselves.

This was the first time they had ever seen such a wondrous martial spirit as Paimon; it was not recorded in any of the sect's ancient texts.

In other words, before meeting Paimon, they had never even heard of this kind of martial spirit, let alone seen it.

If this little one were to acquire nine spirit rings that are over 50,000 years old, her strength would probably be enough to destroy the heavens and the earth!

There are only two reasons why Zhong Li hasn't given her a spirit ring yet.

The first scenario: Paimon hasn't decided which path to take yet.

The second possibility is that a suitable spirit ring was not found.

Having a 100,000-year spirit ring might make someone look down on spirit rings shorter than 100,000 years!

He will make a move once he finds a suitable 100,000-year-old soul beast!

A 100,000-year-old spirit ring and a spirit ring less than 100,000 years old are two different concepts.

Suddenly, Paimon seemed to remember something and said, "Zhongli said last night that we would have distinguished guests visiting today. Is it you?"

Paimon hadn't forgotten about this, because Zhongli had brought it up again during breakfast earlier.

However, she didn't seem to have seen these two "distinguished guests" before.

Could it be that Zhong Li secretly left while she was sleeping and that's how they met?

This also explains why Zhongli knows so much more than her.

Although they arrived together, Zhong Li acted as if she were "coming home".

Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi, and Zhong Li: "..."

Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi exchanged a glance, then looked at Zhong Li, whose expression remained unchanged, and were deeply shocked.

This person actually guessed they would come?

If this is true, then it's absolutely terrifying!

Is it possible that Zhongli was referring to more than just these two guests?

"The little guy who can't keep a secret."

Zhong Li muttered a complaint in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.

Ning Fengzhi's visit was expected, but he wasn't sure when the other party would arrive.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is located near Heaven Dou City, so it would be difficult for them not to know about what happened at the city gate.

Faced with the sudden appearance of a "Title Douluo", how could the other party, being the second largest sect in the world and located nearby, not investigate?

What if they might try to recruit him, or what if Ning Fengzhi and the others see him as a threat?

"If there's no one else, then it must be us."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said confidently.

Distinguished guest?

As the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Chen Xin as a level 96 Super Douluo, they are both worthy of being called distinguished guests.

If they can't even be called honored guests, then who in the world can?

Ning Fengzhi's smile gives people a feeling of warmth and comfort.

Clearly, those smiles were practiced.

As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, how could he possibly be a soft-hearted person?

"No wonder Zhongli brewed two extra cups of tea..."

After muttering something to himself, Paimon continued, "Please come in, both guests!"

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin hesitated slightly. Zhong Li hadn't said a word from beginning to end; it was all his martial spirit that spoke.

Logically speaking, there should be no problem with one's own martial soul representing oneself.

However, Zhongli's situation is rather peculiar.

Do they listen to Paimon or to "dumb" Zhongli?

It seemed as if they had seen through Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin's thoughts.

Zhong Li cupped his hands in greeting and said very politely, "Sect Leader Ning, Sword Douluo, please come in."

Thank you!

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin exchanged a glance and quickly said something.

In a short while, the group took their seats.

When Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin saw the teacup in front of Zhongli, they finally believed Paimon's words.

The other side was really well prepared!

"please."

Zhongli pushed the two teacups to Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin respectively, and said something.

The tea culture on Douluo Continent is still in a state of development, and even Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin do not understand many of the "principles".

Zhongli's actions were swift and skillful, a sight to behold. Just as I was about to take a closer look and secretly memorize the details, the other party had already served the tea.

Thank you.

Although the two thanked him, they didn't drink the tea right away. It was obvious what they were worried about.

It's nothing more than the fear that the tea might be poisonous.

Seeing this, Zhongli didn't say anything and began to sip his tea on his own.

"Sect Leader Ning Fengzhi, Elder Chen Xin, why aren't you drinking tea?"

"The tea that Zhongli brews is not something that ordinary people can drink."

Paimon asked in confusion. Although she didn't like drinking tea, the tea brewed by Zhongli had a unique flavor, and drinking it occasionally was a good choice.

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin felt somewhat embarrassed. It wasn't appropriate to point some things out directly to their faces…

But Paimon, this adorable little guy, is simply impossible to hate.

Look at her "wise" eyes, and that puzzled expression...

After a moment's thought, Ning Fengzhi picked up his teacup first and, imitating Zhongli, began to sip his tea.

Although he also had his own method of tea tasting, it was rather inelegant and simplistic compared to Zhongli's.

"Um?"

With just one sip, Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up. This tea...

This tea is just ordinary tea, but after Zhongli's skillful processing, it becomes slightly more extraordinary.

Of course, it only enhances the aroma of the tea itself.

"Your Majesty is not only exceptionally strong, but also nearly divine in the art of tea!"

Ning Fengzhi reluctantly put down his teacup and praised him sincerely.

As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he naturally couldn't afford to lose face for the school.

No matter how much you love something, you have to let it go when it's time to let it go.
