Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 700 The Unequal Balance
Ning Rongrong seemed to have no idea that Wu Feng, who looked harmless, could be so serious that the murderous intent emanating from his brows was somewhat reminiscent of her third brother, the Thousand-Handed Asura.

Time seemed to stand still, and everything was frozen in place.

Ning Rongrong hadn't been talked to like this in ages, and she really wanted to slap Wu Feng to death this rude girl.

But she couldn't do that, as it would cause the entire mission Tang San had given her to fail.

Although Tang San is still her third brother, anyone can see that the more than twenty years in the God Realm have completely changed Tang San.

She can act up as she pleases in front of the characters she can bully, but Ning Rongrong wouldn't dare to take the risk of potentially affecting Tang San's plans and being held accountable by Tang San.

"Speaking rudely and disrespectfully to a senior is punishable!"

The next moment, a golden light slowly appeared, seemingly about to fall on Wu Feng.

"Senior, wait a minute."

Chen Ping quickly spoke up: "As the saying goes, a son should suffer the punishment for his father, and a husband should suffer the punishment for his wife. Wu Feng's words were disrespectful and offended the senior, so he should be the one to be punished."

"Hmph, now you know how to say something meaningless?"

Seeing Chen Ping, who had seemed to be deep in thought, suddenly speak, Ning Rongrong's tone was somewhat disdainful.

"Since that's the case, then I'll give you a few more lashes and see if you still want to show off."

"Snap!" A long whip formed from golden light lashed out and struck Chen Ping hard.

Chen Ping groaned. The whip's damage didn't affect his body; instead, it directly affected his soul, making it extremely unbearable.

"Crack! Crack!"

Two more lashes fell, but Chen Ping didn't utter a sound.

This pain felt less unbearable than the ordeal he endured a few months ago when he forcibly absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring.

"Hmm."

Chen Ping took a deep breath and chuckled a few times, the meaning of which was unclear.

Looking at it this way, all the suffering I endured in the past wasn't entirely without its benefits.

He truly hadn't expected that the whip that could make Xu Sanshi scream in agony in the original story would, when it landed on him, be described as still lacking in power.

Although Chen Ping's chuckle was not intended to mock Ning Rongrong, Ning Rongrong interpreted it differently.

"Disrespectful to your elders, and insincere in accepting punishment, hereby receive ten more lashes!"

At this moment, Ning Rongrong had truly gone to extremes, unleashing all her wickedness and flaws on Chen Ping.

As the slapping sound rang out, her priestly affinity dropped another ten points.

After ten lashes, Chen Ping's eyes truly held a hint of mockery.

He seemed to say nothing, yet he also seemed to say everything.

His eyes clearly conveyed two words—that's all?
Your act of descending to the mortal realm at the level of a second-level god is a serious transgression that even the sea god Poseidon dared not do back then. At most, it was only because it was in a small world like Qiankun Wenqing Valley that you did not completely cross the line.

But if Ning Rongrong really killed someone during this time, then she would truly disregard the rules of the God Realm. Even if Tang San came, he couldn't protect her—did he really think the Destruction was just a figurehead? This actual controller of the God Realm had long been unhappy with the Seven Devils, especially Tang San, who had been constantly opposing him since his ascension.

If there's even a single piece of evidence, this matter will be blown out of proportion.

Therefore, seeing Chen Ping's mocking gaze, Ning Rongrong could only feign bravado while remaining weak inside.

"now you."

Ning Rongrong abruptly changed the subject: "Since you admit you have lovers, and that your lovers are both Ning Tian and Wu Feng..."

As she spoke, Ning Rongrong suddenly drew out her words, clearly considering what to ask for her third question.

"A senior like you wouldn't want to ask me such a stupid question as whether Ning Tian or Wu Feng has to die, would you? Don't you have any tricks up your sleeve?"

Without saying a word, Chen Ping anticipated the question Ning Rongrong wanted to ask and immediately put her in a difficult position.

"Of course not, do you think you're so smart?"

Deep within the land of inheritance, Ning Rongrong, with her neck stiff, retorted to Chen Ping, and immediately thought of an extremely venomous question.

"Suppose that both of your lovers have passed away for some reason, and the only two relics they left you are invaluable treasures that could turn the tide of the war that the Sun Moon Empire is about to launch."

“You should understand how powerful the Sun Moon Empire’s soul tool reserves are. They are something that your three kingdoms on the Douluo Continent cannot withstand at all. Now you have this opportunity to use these two unique relics to turn the tide.”

"If you had a chance to save everyone in the world, including your parents, best friends, and brothers, and spare all the people of the Douluo Continent from the flames of war and the suffering of war, the price would be these two relics."

"By the way, just a reminder, with these two relics, Ning Tian and Wu Feng have a chance to be resurrected, but without these two relics, they are truly dead."

After saying her last sentence, Ning Rongrong's tone was so smug, so confident of victory.

Chen Ping's eyes narrowed slightly. Did this guy get his inspiration from Ah Yin turning into a Blue Silver Emperor after her death? What a wonderful opportunity for resurrection!
"Answer the question, don't resist answering. If you don't answer within three minutes, you die."

Ning Rongrong's voice returned to its cold indifference. Ning Tian and Wu Feng wanted to say something, but they were enveloped in bubbles and couldn't make a sound.

Chen Ping then cracked his neck, making a snapping sound, before speaking softly.

"You deliberately placed completely unequal weights on both sides of the scale, causing it to tip to one side."

"Then you place vague and ethereal emotions like loyalty and love on the less important side, trying to declare that both sides are now equally important."

"It seems that this is how you can measure how profound and unwavering your love is."

“I’ll tell you my answer: I will choose to give up Ning Tian and Wu Feng’s relics.”

"Because even if they escape this crisis, they will perish in your repeated harassment, because only in this way will they satisfy your taste."

"And what I need to do is ensure that one day I grow strong enough to drag you, that hypocritical bitch, out of the Valley of Love and Deception, twist your head off, and comfort their souls in heaven."

"If I choose to save the world, your answer is a critique of my fidelity in love; if I choose to save my lover, your answer is that I am short-sighted, obsessed with the past and relics while neglecting my friends and family, and lacking love for the world."

"Say what you will, but you better not give me a chance to fall into my hands. You like to give me choices, but I don't. I'm usually good at directly torturing people to death."
