Douluo Continent: Refresh the entry, start with boundless good fortune!

Chapter 104 Madam, my name is Lao Ai

What was that sound?

Everyone was startled and quickly turned around to look.

Behind them, in the direction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the sky was already a sea of ​​fire, with raging flames soaring into the sky.

The flames rolled in, and the heat wave hit us hard, sending chills down our spines.

Dugu Bo and Lin Shui were stunned by the scene before them, their eyes filled with fear and shock.

"It seems they used the jade talisman so quickly. This should keep us safe."

Lin Feng, on the other hand, remained calm, as if everything was going as he had expected.

He spoke with a confident and composed tone, speaking calmly.

"As expected of a peerless Douluo, this power makes killing me as easy as crushing an insect."

"Unless the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a death wish, they would never dare to covet Flame Valley again."

Dugu Bo swallowed hard, his eyes filled with awe as he looked at the sea of ​​fire, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke.

The three steadied themselves and continued flying forward.

At this moment, the other members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also saw the sea of ​​fire in the sky.

The firelight filled the sky, illuminating their terrified faces.

Everyone was instantly terrified, their faces turning deathly pale and their legs going weak.

Fortunately, the terrifying sea of ​​fire gradually dissipated before long, leaving only a patch of scorched earth and a pungent smell in the air.

People who had survived the ordeal collapsed to the ground, muttering to themselves:

"I've finally survived..."

Night falls.

The entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was shrouded in darkness and fell into silence.

The main hall and rear hall of the sect.

The soul guide light turned on, illuminating Ning Fengzhi's tired face.

Many members of the sect witnessed that terrifying sea of ​​fire today.

There must be spies from other forces among them.

He must devise a solution as soon as possible to deal with the inquiries from other forces.

"It's late at night, and those rats lurking in the shadows should be coming out soon."

"Go, have the Second Elder lead the Shadow Guards to keep an eye on any suspicious individuals in the sect. I want to see how many of them are spies."

Ning Fengzhi's tired face held a cold gaze.

"yes!"

A dark figure cupped his hands in greeting, then turned and disappeared into the shadows.

At this moment, Liu Rong, carrying a steaming bowl of noodle soup, stepped into the main hall and walked in quietly.

"Fengzhi, you've had a long day, get some rest."

Her eyes were full of concern, and her voice was gentle as water as she spoke softly.

Ning Fengzhi didn't even look up; he simply waved his hand.

"You should go to sleep first."

"I still have some things to take care of today, so I won't be going back."

Ning Fengzhi's tone was tinged with weariness and helplessness, as his pen continued to write on the paper.

Upon hearing this, Liu Rong stared at Ning Fengzhi's focused back, a feeling of resentment welling up in her heart.

She stood silently in place, her eyes filled with disappointment.

Liu Rong thought about how much she had sacrificed for Ning Fengzhi, but he was always so busy that he neglected her feelings.

For a moment, Liu Rong even had the idea of ​​finding someone else.

But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, she felt incredibly ashamed.

She gently shook her head, trying to banish the terrible thought from her mind.

"Rong'er? What's wrong?"

"I'm fine, I'll go to sleep now."

"Okay, get some rest."

Ning Fengzhi looked at Liu Rong with concern and watched her leave the main hall.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Rong walked back.

They arrived at the gate of the residence.

"lady!"

The two guards at the door saw her and immediately bowed.

In the instant she lowered her head, a guard couldn't resist secretly landing on her feet.

"Um."

Liu Rong, being perceptive, immediately noticed this subtle action.

"What's your name? I've never seen you before," she said calmly, looking at the other person.

"Reporting to Madam, I am the newly arrived guard, Lao Ai."

She observed him carefully and found that he was indeed a fair-skinned and handsome man, somewhat resembling Feng Zhi when he was twenty years old. Her heart couldn't help but pound.

His expression remained unchanged.

"Lao Ai, the sect leader is working in the main hall today. Go and get a bowl of lotus seed porridge, deliver it to the sect leader's door and stand guard. Make sure it stays warm."

"After you finish your work, Sect Leader must have a bowl of lotus seed porridge to calm your mind, nourish your body, and get a good night's sleep."

Her voice, though still gentle, carried an undeniable air of authority.

"Huh? But the cafeteria is closed now..."

"Yes, madam, let me go."

Lao Ai looked stunned. Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by another guard who respectfully said...

Liu Rong has no objection.

"Okay, then you should go quickly."

Liu Rong stepped into the room without lingering. Behind her, Lao Ai's gaze couldn't help but sweep over her retreating figure, which was quite alluring.

"Lao Ai, I'm going now. You stay and keep watch."

"Ah, okay, thank you for your help, Brother Li."

"Don't be so polite. You've only just arrived, so you won't know. You'll find out once you've waited a while. The cafeteria always leaves a small door open, just for the sect leader and the others."

The latest novel is first published here!

After speaking, the guard left with the night lantern, his steps hurried.

In the dead of night, all was quiet, with only the moonlight spilling onto the earth like water.

The only remaining guard outside Liu Rong's room stood quietly at the door, surrounded by a serene atmosphere.

Suddenly, the door creaked open, and Liu Rong's beautiful figure appeared in the doorway.

Bathed in moonlight, she looked like a fairy descending to earth.

Lao Ai was stunned: "Husband, Madam?"

"You, come in!" The commanding tone was accompanied by a slight tremor in the voice.

A blush spread across Liu Rong's face.

After a moment of excitement.

Lao Ai cautiously stepped into the courtyard and closed the door.

……

Valley of Flames.

Inside Ye Lingling's room.

The dim yellow light flickered gently, and a solemn atmosphere permeated the air.

Ye Lingling's grandfather, Ye Nantian, sat quietly in his chair.

After listening to Ye Lingling recount the whole story, his originally kind face instantly crumpled into a frown.

"Lingling, Grandpa can't help with this."

"I'm just a Soul Douluo, while we're facing the powerful Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"If they stomp their feet, the entire Douluo Continent trembles. What can we do?"

Ye Nantian's words were full of helplessness. He slowly turned around, his eyes revealing a hint of sadness.

"Although I am known as the number one healing-type Soul Master on the continent, it is just a title."

"If someone is willing to give us face, that's a favor; if they're not, there's nothing we can do about it."

In this world where might makes right, what do we have to fight back?

"In front of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Lin family's words carry more weight than mine."

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed in Ye Lingling's eyes, but she wasn't too worried.

"It's alright, Grandpa."

"Flame Valley now has a guardian beast, and even the Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is too afraid to come."

"We are safe now."

Ye Nantian shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes filled with pity for his granddaughter's naive thoughts.

"Silly child, you're too naive."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a profound foundation and countless experts; how could they possibly fear a mere soul beast?"

"Even if they can't do anything to us in the Valley of Flames for the time being, what will we do once we're outside the valley?"

Ye Lingling's body trembled slightly.

Grandpa's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing her illusions.

Immediately afterwards, a hint of panic and worry flashed in Ye Lingling's eyes.

"No matter what, I'm going to stay with Lin Feng. I can't let him face these dangers alone."

She gritted her teeth and said firmly.

Grandpa looked at Ye Lingling's stubborn appearance, his heart filled with heartache and helplessness.

He slowly approached Ye Lingling, a resolute glint in his eyes:

"Lingling, don't blame Grandpa."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swiftly raised his hand, and a soft yet powerful light flashed by.

Before Ye Lingling could react, she slowly closed her eyes and softly fell into her grandfather's arms.

Ye Nantian gently held Ye Lingling in his arms, his eyes filled with love and reluctance.

"Child, I'm doing this all for your own good."

"Grandpa will take you away from this place of trouble this time. I hope you will be safe and sound from now on."

With that, Ye Nantian turned around and walked heavily toward the door.

The moonlight shone on him, outlining a lonely yet resolute figure that gradually disappeared into the night.
