Chapter 302 A Plot Targeting Ning Rongrong
Chapter 302 A Plot Targeting Ning Rongrong
"My third great-aunt..."
Ning Fengzhi sighed helplessly, his expression turning dejected, as if he had been greatly affected.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's attitude, the old woman sighed softly, abandoning her aggressive demeanor and adopting the air of an elder, saying gently, "Fengzhi! Han Feng is ultimately just an outsider. Who knows what his motives are for getting close to Rongrong?! I'm saying this for the good of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's eyes darkened almost imperceptibly!
Ning Fengzhi knew better than anyone that if they truly cared about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, these old fogies wouldn't be opposing him at every turn. Rather than being concerned about the sect, these old men were using the sect's interests as an excuse to display their authority as elders!
But Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to listen. Although he was the sect leader, the sect's rules couldn't control these people in front of him!
To be honest, some of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's rules were actually established by these old guys!
Ning Fengzhi glanced around, seeing the pairs of eyes that were almost threatening him, and felt powerless. Knowing he couldn't delay any longer, he had no choice but to ask, "Fellow clan uncles and ancestors, please grant me a word!"
"It's truly baffling why everyone is so concerned about Rongrong's marriage."
After more than a month, Ning Fengzhi knew that if this dragged on any longer, these people would lose patience!
As early as a month ago, these old guys had been interfering with Ning Rongrong's marriage time and time again. On one hand, they said that as the young sect leader, Ning Rongrong's marriage was not a trivial matter and had to be arranged by her parents and a matchmaker. On the other hand, they said that Ning Rongrong was only a teenager and didn't know anything about love and romance. They believed that she must have been deceived by Han Feng!
In short, she looked down on Han Feng in every way, as if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would be destroyed if Ning Rongrong married Han Feng!
Ning Fengzhi knew perfectly well that it wasn't Han Feng who had deceived Ning Rongrong. It was clear that his daughter was madly in love with Han Feng, and Han Feng's potential had even been recognized by the gods. Ning Fengzhi had never seen such a talented person in his entire life, yet in the eyes of this group of people, he had become an incompetent good-for-nothing!
More importantly...
Even if it was arranged by his parents and a matchmaker, that was Ning Fengzhi's business. What did it have to do with you grandpas and grandparents?
Seeing that Ning Fengzhi had backed down, the group of old men and women became excited!
"Fengzhi! Listen to this old man! That Han Feng is truly not a good match!" Ning Fengzhi's second uncle stood up again, looking earnest and earnest, and said clearly, "Firstly, that Han Feng is an unknown, utterly insignificant genius. We've lived most of our lives; haven't we seen enough of those?! Secondly, Fengzhi, don't forget, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is currently cooperating with the Heavenly Dou Royal Family!"
"Even if we assume Han Feng is truly talented, if the Spirit Hall were to attack, those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with us are ultimately the Heaven Dou royal family, not some young prodigy!"
"Han Feng's close relationship with the imposter prince is bound to arouse suspicion. If Rongrong associates with him, it will inevitably lead to gossip!"
"How can the sect's century-long plan be ruined because of Han Feng!"
As soon as Ning Fengzhi's second uncle finished speaking, the others echoed him, each giving him instructions. One criticized Han Feng, while another emphasized the importance of the Heavenly Dou Royal Family to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!
In short, they elevated the Heaven Dou royal family to the heavens while demoting Han Feng to the lowest level!
"What a scoundrel!" Chen Xin, standing behind Ning Fengzhi, frowned. Given his doting on Ning Rongrong, he almost swung his sword at Ning Fengzhi's second uncle's words!
Ning Rongrong and Han Feng were mutually in love and had a sweet and innocent first love, but in this old man's mouth, it became a messy affair!
But in the end, his desire for worldly pleasures remained unfulfilled.
To be honest, Ning Fengzhi's second uncle and Chen Xin are of the same generation!
Moreover, although Chen Xin is the pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and one of the two great elders, he knows very well that he is not surnamed Ning after all. No matter how much everyone respects and loves him, he is a retainer, not the head of the family. His mission is to protect Ning Fengzhi and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, not to make decisions for Ning Fengzhi and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. This is a line that must be drawn!
Moreover... based on Chen Xin's understanding of Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin knew that Ning Fengzhi must already be furious!
Despite Ning Fengzhi's usual gentlemanly and gentle demeanor, Ning Rongrong is the apple of his eye!
Ning Fengzhi will not care about seniority or hierarchy if these old bastards dare to plot against Ning Rongrong!
"If that's the case, then according to Second Uncle's words, what should be done about Rongrong's marriage?" Ning Fengzhi took a sip of tea without showing any emotion. The reflection in his glasses perfectly concealed his eyes, making it impossible to see the fluctuations in them.
Chen Xin's lips curled up, but Ning Fengzhi's second uncle did not realize the hidden anger in Ning Fengzhi's words. After all, Ning Fengzhi had always been very respectful and loving towards them, his elders!
Seeing that Ning Fengzhi had relented, Ning Fengzhi's second uncle was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Then naturally we must forbid Rongrong from associating with Han Feng! To silence the gossip!"
"Furthermore, I think Xue Beng, the only remaining heir of Emperor Xue Ye, is quite good! Since Xue Qinghe is an imposter, then the position of Crown Prince will inevitably belong to Xue Beng. If Rongrong can marry Xue Beng, she will become the Empress of an empire in the future, not only ruling the world with grace, but also strengthening the ties between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heavenly Dou Royal Family!"
"At that time, not only will we be able to clear up some misunderstandings between the two sides, but the influence of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the Heaven Dou Empire will also reach an unprecedented level, completely crushing the Blue Lightning Tyrant School and becoming one of the top three sects will be just around the corner!"
Finally, he couldn't resist lecturing Ning Fengzhi with a hint of anger, "Fengzhi! It's not that I'm criticizing you, but if you hadn't taken the fake crown prince as your disciple back then, leading to the current attacks from the court officials, I wouldn't be in this old age worrying so much..."
"Hmph!" Before he could finish speaking, Ning Fengzhi suddenly let out a cold snort, his gentle eyes turning sinister. Ning Fengzhi, who had always been a gentleman, suddenly erupted in anger, shouting, "When did my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School stoop so low that it needs to sacrifice my daughter's happiness to gain power?!"
"Fengzhi! What do you mean! I'm only doing this for your own good!" Ning Fengzhi's change in attitude startled his second uncle, but he still shouted with a thick neck.
"For my own good!? Why do I, Ning Fengzhi, need your guidance in doing things!?" Ning Fengzhi narrowed his eyes, his sect leader's imposing manner surging forth, and he sneered, retorting, "Since there are so many benefits, why doesn't Second Uncle marry Xue Beng!?"
"You!" Ning Fengzhi's second uncle was speechless with anger. Overwhelmed with rage, he clutched his chest and gasped for breath.
Seeing this, the others quickly gathered around, some even pointing at Ning Fengzhi with indignation and shouting, "Fengzhi! You've gotten too big for your britches, we can't control you anymore!"
Ning Fengzhi remained unmoved, not even glancing at his second uncle, nor offering a reply. He stood up and left gracefully with Chen Xin, leaving behind only the words: "Elders! I don't care how much benefit you received from Xue Beng and Xue Xing, but I'll tell you this: if Rongrong is heartbroken, don't blame me for disregarding kinship!"
After Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin left, Ning Fengzhi's second uncle stood up amidst the crowd, his gaze fixed on the direction Ning Fengzhi had gone, muttering under his breath, "You little beast! You deserve to die just like your foolish father!"
"Second Brother, what do we do now?!" An old man looked worried and somewhat at a loss, clearly frightened by Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi's second uncle pondered for a moment, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes, and said, word by word, "If we're going to do it, let's go all the way! Let's just go all the way!"
"Going to extremes? Second brother, what are you planning to do?" The old man was startled and asked in a trembling voice.
"Hmph!" Ning Fengzhi's second uncle snorted coldly, and said hatefully, "I've known for a long time that Han Feng is currently in seclusion in Dugu Bo's Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Tell me, what do you think Han Feng will think when he comes out of seclusion and learns that Ning Rongrong is already someone else's fiancée?!"
"I've already inquired about it. Han Feng is arrogant and aloof, and his feelings for Ning Rongrong aren't genuine. If Ning Rongrong hadn't shamelessly pursued him, they would have been nothing more than strangers. A man like that, if he knew Ning Rongrong's tainted reputation, would never associate with her! This plan is absolutely brilliant!"
"Hiss!" Not only the old man who asked the question, but many other elders of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan also gasped in shock!
This plan is not brilliant at all; it's downright suicidal!
That's incredibly toxic!
"Second Brother... this plan is too risky! Once it's exposed, Ning Fengzhi will definitely break ties with us!" the old man said timidly, somewhat worried.
"Uncle! You're just too cowardly!" Ning Fengzhi's second uncle glanced disdainfully at his third brother and said coldly, "So what if we tear off the mask of civility?! Do you think he would dare to kill us?! We are his direct descendants and elders. If he lays a hand on us, then his position as sect leader will be over! Besides, do you expect that little beast to give us a good look after today?!"
Ning Fengzhi's second uncle's words convinced a large number of clan elders.
Just as he said, their identity and age are their biggest trump cards!
You may not have any other skills, but you certainly know how to rely on your age and seniority!
However, some people still raised objections. The old woman who had previously mocked Ning Fengzhi spoke up: "But Zhongxiao, the sect leader's lineage is protected by two peerless titled Douluo, Chen Xin and Gu Rong! We..."
Facing his third aunt, Ning Zhongxiao, Ning Fengzhi's second uncle, dared not be presumptuous, but still remained disdainful, bowing slightly and saying meaningfully, "Third Aunt! Back then, my eldest brother had Gu Rong and Chen Xin protecting him! Didn't he still die an unclear death?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present gasped!
