Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 297 This One! The Golden Dragon King, the Lord of Soul Beasts!

Lin Yun's words startled not only Ning Tian but also Ning Zhirou.

What the hell? He started talking about killing and destroying entire clans right off the bat. Ning Zhirou's heart jumped into her throat. Could it be that her decision this time was not only not driving away a tiger to devour a wolf, but instead inviting a tiger into the house?

Feeling uneasy, Ning Zhirou tentatively asked, "Why do you say that, sir?"

"Wasn't I clear enough?" Lin Yun leaned back in his chair and snapped his fingers. Hyotei then created a barrier that covered the entire villa. No one could hear the conversation inside the barrier.

"Brother Yun..." Ning Tian's eyes were red, and he spoke in a somewhat urgent tone.

But before she could finish speaking, Lin Yun raised his hand to stop her.

"Sect Leader Ning, although I have only been in the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School for a few minutes, it seems to me that things are not going well for your sect?" Lin Yun rested his elbow on the back of the chair, propped his chin on his hand, and looked at Ning Zhirou with a half-smile.

"Those two just now, your Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's so-called Guardian Douluos, they must have given you no shortage of headaches, right? Top combatants with disloyal intentions, and a lack of promising young talents—it seems your Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School isn't in a very good position after all?"

Ning Zhirou remained silent and did not respond. As the sect leader, she knew perfectly well what Lin Yun was trying to figure out, even though Lin Yun could see through it at a glance. However, she did not know why Lin Yun had said those words or what his purpose was.

The main problem was that his words had frightened Ning Zhirou. If it were just her, she would die alone if the negotiations failed. But if Ning Tian were also there, the entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School would die together if the negotiations failed...

Ning Zhirou glanced at Bingdi, who was standing next to Lin Yun like a little maid, out of the corner of her eye, and secretly groaned in her heart.

Even such a powerful figure treated Lin Yun with utmost respect. Although their relationship seemed complicated, this super expert, who could easily annihilate his entire Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, obeyed Lin Yun's every word and did not overstep any boundaries in either his words or actions.

As the head of a sect, Ning Zhirou knew all too well what this meant.

This signifies absolute authority and the ability to command a super strong individual willingly. Ning Zhirou has good judgment; based on Ice Emperor's brief attack, she conservatively estimates it to be a level 98 Super Douluo.

Even such a powerful figure... Ning Zhirou didn't dare to imagine how strong the forces behind Lin Yun were.

At this moment, she didn't even have time to think about why such a powerful force had never appeared in the ten thousand years of history of Douluo Continent.

What she cared more about was how much help the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School would receive if the deal was reached. If Lin Yun had the support of the forces behind him, would she still need to worry about those two old guys all the time?

Not at all!

Seeing Ning Zhirou deep in thought, Lin Yun didn't rush her. Instead, he raised an eyebrow at Ning Tian, ​​signaling her to pour him a cup of tea.

Lin Yun's subtle expression reassured Ning Tian. He pouted helplessly. With such a subtle hint in his eyes, how could Ning Tian not know that Lin Yun was just deliberately scaring his mother and had no intention of destroying his Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?

But who uses the threat of destroying an entire sect to scare people like that!

Ning Tian complained a little, but still obediently poured Lin Yun a cup of tea.

She was ultimately a little different from the other love-obsessed characters from the Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect era. If it were any other love-obsessed character, they would probably already be thinking about how to sell the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School by now. Although Ning Tian wouldn't expose Lin Yun's plan, he would still harbor a little resentment in his heart.

In subsequent negotiations, she certainly wouldn't sell out the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School just because of Lin Yun; she would definitely fight for more benefits for her own sect. What makes a qualified young sect leader?

A qualified young sect leader must always put their sect first!

The soft sound of the empty cup being placed on the table after she swallowed a cup of tea signaled the end of Ning Zhirou's contemplation.

After weighing the pros and cons... Ning Zhirou chose to go all in!

Yes, all in!

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School has undoubtedly reached a crossroads. Ten thousand years ago, Shrek Academy took this opportunity to soar to the sky and ruled the Douluo Continent for tens of thousands of years in an unconventional way. Ning Zhirou keenly sensed that this might also be an opportunity for their Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School!

This is a woman's seventh sense!

Last time, when things were at their most critical, although the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School also took off, they did not gain the most benefits; on the contrary, the losses were almost unacceptable.

This time, if they seize the opportunity, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School might just soar to new heights!

However, there was one more thing she needed to confirm before that.

"My lord, do your words mean that you intend to tell me a secret? A secret that can only be known by our own people?" Ning Zhirou smiled gently.

If we can't reach an agreement, we'll wipe out your entire clan!

Anyone who isn't a fool can understand the meaning behind Lin Yun's words: the forces behind Lin Yun cannot stand openly in front of the world, and if you want to cooperate with the forces behind him, you must be prepared to keep it a secret.

Now that negotiations are underway, the forces behind both sides will inevitably come to light. Given that Ning Zhirou knows about Lin Yun's backing and cannot cooperate, silencing him is naturally the best option.

"A force that needs my secret, a force that cannot appear openly before the world..." Ning Zhirou murmured softly, her small, white hands gripping the hem of her skirt tightly, her body trembling slightly.

"My lord... you are one of the Soul Beasts, aren't you? And the powerful figure beside you is also a super ferocious beast, isn't he?"

Ning Zhirou's barely audible words boomed like thunder in Ning Tian's ears. The girl's beautiful eyes widened instantly as she stared at Lin Yun in disbelief.

"As expected of the sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, your mind is indeed very sharp. You were able to deduce all this from just a few clues." Lin Yun nodded noncommittally, then sneered, "Unfortunately, intelligent people usually don't live long, especially when their strength doesn't match their intelligence!"

Lin Yun's lack of denial proved that Ning Zhirou's guess was correct. Ning Tian felt as if the sky had fallen, and he sat down on the ground with a distraught expression.

Heaven knows just how shocking it was to learn that the person you love is actually a soul beast in human form.

(Tang Hao & Tang San: What?! My wife/lover is actually a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast?! Is this for real?!)

Seeing that Lin Yun had indirectly admitted it, Ning Zhirou's trembling body strangely calmed down. When it really came to this, she found that it wasn't so hard for her to accept.

"That's right, let me reintroduce myself. I am the supreme ruler of all soul beasts, the Golden Dragon King!"
