Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

It really does.

Ning Rongrong suddenly recalled the time she established a soul link with Zhao Xiaoya; if Zhao Xiaoya initiated a reconciliation request, she could directly control her.

Is it really any different from persuasion or control?

It's time to take a tougher approach and resolve this problem with Yu Xiaogang directly.

So she summoned the Eight Spider Spears.

The eight spider spears rubbed against each other behind him, making a piercing sound.

The master broke out in a cold sweat and finally couldn't help but open his eyes.

His eyes were bloodshot as he glared angrily at Ning Rongrong, saying, "Enough! What do you want? I only punished you, and you're going to kill me? I don't know how you knew I was still here, but if you kill me, Flander and the others won't let you get away with it! Do you know who Tang San's father is? Tang Hao! Tang Hao won't let you get away with it either!"

"Pfft." Ning Rongrong laughed. "Yu Xiaogang, you're still so naive. Have you forgotten that my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also has two Title Douluos? Why would you think I'm afraid of them?"

Actually, she would have been really scared before, since Tang Hao might have been able to use his connections to summon Tang Xiao. The previous outcome was probably that Tang Xiao fought against the two sword and bone masters, which gave Tang Hao an opportunity to take advantage.

But things are different now. There are three scrolls available within a month. Ning Rongrong, at level 50-something, with her Soul King version soul skills, might not be able to defeat her opponent, but at least she won't be instantly killed.

Yu Xiaogang swallowed the words he was about to say, only then realizing that his theory had a major problem.

He hadn't thought much about what Flander had said earlier, but now that he did, it seemed he couldn't afford to offend Ning Rongrong either. The best opportunity to kill her had passed, and he had no chance of turning the tables.

What do you want?

His tone had become humble. A week was enough time for his jealousy to diminish to a lesser degree.

"Would you... like to be my dog? A well-behaved dog?"

Ning Rongrong spoke jokingly.

Yu Xiaogang no longer dared to look Ning Rongrong in the eye.

He quickly understood what was just said. It meant he was being asked to submit!

Chapter 80 Completely Controlling Yu Xiaogang

Can Yu Xiaogang tolerate this?

His pride started acting up again, and suddenly, his pride triumphed over his inferiority complex.

He raised his head and stared fiercely at Ning Rongrong: "A scholar can be killed, but not humiliated!"

The next second, the Eight Spider Lances were already at his neck, as if Ning Rongrong could kill him with a single thought.

"Then I'll kill him?"

Ning Rongrong smiled. She knew that there were probabilistic events in the game, so Yu Xiaogang's promise to her might also be a probabilistic event. She wasn't joking.

Yu Xiaogang realized that Ning Rongrong's words didn't mean anything by them, and his survival instinct overcame his pride. He hurriedly said, "I submit! I submit to you! From now on, you are my master!"

"Oh?" Ning Rongrong looked at Yu Xiaogang with interest.

She has retrieved the Eight Spider Spears.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang kowtowing repeatedly on the ground, she suddenly felt nauseous.

However, she soon received a "reconciliation request" from the other party.

That is, "to reform or to execute".

Ning Rongrong could naturally see what Yu Xiaogang was going to say to make her accept it, but this time she was not as confused as Zhao Xiaoya had been. This time, she had a clear goal.

Therefore, the choice is to influence (control).

Then, on a command operation sheet that had not been used before, the option to "weaken self-awareness" was selected.

The master was still too foolish; having too much self-awareness is not a good thing.

This weakens self-awareness, allowing the master to only know about three meals a day, and to decide everything else himself. Of course, this does not mean that the master cannot do anything, but that the master must obtain his own consent before making important decisions.

As for what counts as important—that's up to her to decide.

Before my eyes, the master's movements had stopped, and his eyes were blank.

"Very good." Looking at the master's appearance, Ning Rongrong nodded in satisfaction. "Tell me who you are and who I am."

"I am Yu Xiaogang, a good-for-nothing expelled from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. You are Ning Rongrong, a proud daughter of heaven, my master."

"No problem." Ning Rongrong looked around the room, and vaguely felt that the master in front of her might have also died once. "What happened in this room?"

"It was Tang Hao. He probably found out that I had instructed Tang San to assassinate you, and he killed me once... That was before. Now, Yu Xiaogang is your man inside and out, Master."

"Your will to survive is pretty strong," Ning Rongrong said, extending her hand.

Yu Xiaogang quickly and sensibly handed the resurrection item to Ning Rongrong.

I thought this item had two more uses, but the master used it once, so now there should only be one more use left.

Then, Ning Rongrong started to worry again.

I initially thought this prop would take up space on me and cause trouble for others, so I decided to just destroy it.

But she suddenly couldn't understand the methods used to destroy it.

How can something that neither the Eight Spider Spears nor the Clear Sky Hammer can destroy be destroyed?

Ning Rongrong quickly realized that she could simply waste the last chance to use it.

But Ning Rongrong thought that this last chance might be a chance to do something else.

This is a resurrection item that can bring people back to life, but at the cost of many side effects.

To put it another way, this is a tactical item that can weaken the opponent, but the price is that the opponent will have one chance to revive.

Tang Hao hadn't come to kill her in the past week, but Ning Rongrong was even more convinced of this after seeing the master's miserable state.

At this moment, she was still level 43 and believed that she could not defeat Tang Hao.

So why not use this item on Tang Hao, letting him go to the Spirit Hall for revenge and use up one of his chances? This would weaken the opponent and destroy the resurrection item at the same time—wouldn't that be wonderful?

Ning Rongrong made up her mind and decided to do it.

She hasn't figured out the process yet.

A thought struck him, and he asked, "Do you want revenge?"

"I will obey my master's orders."

Ning Rongrong was stunned; this weakening of self-awareness had such a great effect.

"Then I will help you get revenge."

Yu Xiaogang was deeply moved upon hearing this.

After pledging allegiance, he had figured out many things, and his mind had never been so clear.

He was wrong before; he did something very wrong to Ning Rongrong, the master.

Ning Rongrong's master is right. All of Ning Rongrong's actions have their reasons. One should not refute them or make decisions on one's own that could affect Ning Rongrong's judgment.

Ning Rongrong is such a kind person! Even though I treated her like this, she still thought about taking revenge for me!

"What do you need me to do, Master?" Yu Xiaogang asked humbly.

"You?" Ning Rongrong thought for a moment and said, "Bring Tang Hao out. I want to talk to him."

Yu Xiaogang looked troubled: "Xiaogang is dull-witted and doesn't know where to start."

Ning Rongrong slapped her forehead and said helplessly, "Just rejoin Shrek Academy. You only pretended to leave because of Tang Hao, right? As long as you join Shrek Academy, Tang Hao will naturally be attracted to you, and then I'll meet him. If that doesn't work, then we'll threaten Tang San."

Seeing that Ning Rongrong was somewhat disappointed in him, Yu Xiaogang could only nod silently.

"Oh, right," Ning Rongrong added, "Since you're rejoining Shrek Academy and are now one of my people, you need to establish a new image. To put it bluntly, you need to carry the stone that hasn't been taken away from the school gate back to Soto City twelve times, without using soul power, to prove that you're truly repentant. I'll allow you some basic communication, but you mustn't reveal our relationship, as that would put me in a difficult position."

Yu Xiaogang nodded: "Xiaogang understands, Master... Rongrong, is this alright?"

Ning Rongrong frowned and added, "In front of outsiders, we'll use our own names, but when it's just the two of us, let's stick to the original way of addressing each other."

Yu Xiaogang stood up straight and said with utmost solemnity, "Yes!"

-

After inputting some commands into Yu Xiaogang, Ning Rongrong took the resurrection item and returned to her dormitory. If nothing unexpected happened, there would be some fun to watch today.

If all goes well, Tang Hao should show up later today. If all else fails, then we'll have to use Tang San as bait.

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were still half asleep and had no idea that Ning Rongrong had just gone out.

They seemed to have been practicing until very late yesterday.

七点。

Flander knocked on the doors of each dormitory. When the doors opened, all five of them, except for Tang San and Ning Rongrong, were taken aback.

The reason was simple: Flander was accompanied by Yu Xiaogang, who had his head down.

This was, of course, Ning Rongrong's order. To show his sincerity, Yu Xiaogang needed to apologize to each dormitory first, and then apologize to the whole group again.

Shortly after Ning Rongrong left, he knocked on Flander's door and told the sleepy Flander that he had deeply realized his mistake and could not continue to run away.

Flanders was naturally pleased to see his close friend's sincere attitude. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with the other person's behavior.

So he took Yu Xiaogang and knocked on the doors of every dormitory, informing them that Yu Xiaogang would be returning to Shrek Academy from that day forward.

Then, Yu Xiaogang knelt down and kowtowed to apologize, stating that he would prove his sincerity with his actions.

Apart from Tang San and Ning Rongrong, the others were all skeptical.

Chapter 81 Yu Xiaogang and Tang San Receive Punishment

Although Tang San felt that the master hadn't done anything wrong, under the filter of his perception, he only saw the master as flexible and adaptable, and couldn't help but admire the master even more, so he didn't ask any questions.

In the cafeteria, a few people met and talked about this.

"Do you think that master really changed his mind?" Xiao Wu asked the two women.

“I don’t believe it. But his attitude made it seem like he was serious,” Zhu Zhuqing replied.

"Rongrong, what do you think?" Xiaowu looked at Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong took a sip of tea and said, "Didn't he say he would prove it with actions? Then let him show us. He can't punish us by making us carry stones during training while he doesn't do it himself, can he?"
