Chapter 292 The Heir to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is No Longer You; Father and Daughter Break Off (Combined Chapter)

“Of course it is…” Su Wen smiled.

“Then, then…” Ning Fengzhi’s expression was tense, and his eyes revealed a hint of longing.

"I don't really care, but it seems your daughter isn't very willing," Su Wen said with a smile, trying to provoke her.

To be honest, he had a pretty good impression of Ning Fengzhi, but the presence of Ning Rongrong, this cancerous tumor, really lowered his opinion of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Don't let it be that it was just sold to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and then immediately passed to Ning Rongrong and given to Tang San...

"Tch, as if anyone cares. Dad, why did you buy his soul tool? Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is so strong, do we need to do this?" Ning Rongrong pouted and tugged at Ning Fengzhi's clothes, acting coquettishly.

"Besides, it's even more expensive than Third Brother's hidden weapons. Third Brother's complete set..."

"Snapped!"

Ning Rongrong stood there, stunned.

Halfway through her sentence, her face gradually became red and swollen. She trembled as she raised her head and looked at her father, who was usually kind and gentle, but now seemed like a stranger. His indifferent gaze chilled her to the bone.

"Dad!!!" Ning Rongrong cried hysterically.

"Ouch, Fengzhi, why did you do that!" Chen Xin sighed softly, stepped forward to stand between the father and daughter, patted Ning Rongrong's head, and said helplessly, "The child is still so young..."

"Not too young."

Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

It seems like they've made up their minds.

"Anyway, I will eventually take control of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and when that time comes, I will use all my strength to kill him!!!" Ning Rongrong pointed at Su Wen with a crazed expression.

"Use the soul-guided device he sold us! Kill him!"

The young lady had never suffered such humiliation.

The burning pain on her left cheek drove her almost insane. It was her father who did it, and in front of so many people. This shattered and trampled her former pride.

"Rongrong!" Chen Xin thought to himself, "This is bad. You still dare to provoke your father at a time like this. The inheritance of a large family is extremely cruel. Ning Rongrong simply hasn't seen the dark side. If your father really wants to cripple you, he'll cut off all resources and supplies. Even he can't say much..."

But clearly, it was too late.

"Phew..." Ning Fengzhi let out a long breath: "It won't happen again."

"You are no longer the sole heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"You've been spoiled by your impulsive, arrogant, and domineering behavior. In the future, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will cease all resource support for you, leaving you to fend for yourself."

"What!" Ning Rongrong was struck dumb.

She never imagined that her father would say such cruel things.

"I will hand over the position of future sect leader to your elder brother... Although his talent is somewhat inferior to yours, at least he won't drag the entire sect into the abyss," Ning Fengzhi continued quietly.

Dugu Bo's eyes widened; this news was truly explosive.

Even Qian Renxue was watching the drama unfold with great interest.

Su Wen, on the other hand, observed coldly. Ning Fengzhi was a cunning old fox; one could only believe seven-tenths of what he said. He might even be putting on an act. To defuse Ning Rongrong's angry words earlier…

However... Ning Rongrong was obviously unaware of this, and if it were fake, she would only act it out in a dry and unconvincing way.

Could it be that Ning Fengzhi has truly lost heart?
Su Wen touched his chin and looked again.

"How dare you say that about me!" Ning Rongrong roared. "I've always been far stronger than Ning Yuan. His innate soul power is two levels lower than mine! He's twenty-seven years old and has only barely reached the Soul Master level. He's a complete waste! How dare he inherit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?!"

“As the leader of a force, this is the most important thing…” Ning Fengzhi pointed to his head, “not strength. Besides, as the inheritor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, I can only cultivate to level 79 at most. I can live for at least several decades, so it’s not impossible for me to hand over the responsibility to him steadily.”

"Your only advantage over your brother is that you reach level 79 a little faster. Other than that, you have no advantage whatsoever."

"Rongrong, I've already given you a chance."

But you didn't cherish it.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Rongrong indifferently.

Is he really a doting father who spoils his daughter?
it's not true.

In reality, as the actual controller of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he had many wives and concubines, and Ning Rongrong's mother was just one of them. There was only one reason why he, Uncle Jian, and Uncle Gu loved Ning Rongrong.

With her talent, she might be able to break through the threshold of becoming a Soul Douluo, a goal that has held countless Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul inheritors for their entire lives.

Even if the hope is extremely slim.

That's how cruel large clans are. Otherwise, why would most of Ning Fengzhi's twenty-odd children not feel any fatherly love from birth? Only a few, after participating in Martial Soul Awakening at level six, showed a glimmer of talent and received Ning Fengzhi's extra care, but even that was only a tiny bit...

Talent is directly proportional to Ning Fengzhi's love.

This is also the kind of character that a leader of a family or sect should possess.

“Besides, strictly speaking, he is the legitimate heir…” Ning Fengzhi said calmly, “while you can only be considered an illegitimate child.”

"..."

The scene was completely silent.

Chen Xin blocked out the sound, so the auction on the stage continued, and most of the audience below were also immersed in the lively atmosphere of the auction, completely unaware that a change of succession of the second largest sect was taking place here.

Chen Xin hesitated, but seeing Ning Fengzhi's determination, he could only sigh helplessly and turn away.

He and Lao Gu were brought together because of Ning Fengzhi.

He was the one in charge.

In the past, when they were joking around, a few words of comfort would be fine, but at this critical moment... once Ning Fengzhi made up his mind, not even eight horses could pull him back.

When it comes to the core interests of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a behemoth involving nearly ten thousand people, Ning Fengzhi is calmer than anyone else, even cold-blooded.

"Uncle Ning, isn't this a bit too cruel to Rongrong..." Tang San frowned.

"Shut up!"

Before Ning Fengzhi could speak, Chen Xin, his expression furious, suddenly flicked his sleeve, and a gust of sharp sword wind blew him down, even knocking over Xiao Wu, who was supporting him.

"It's all your fault, you little beast! You've ruined my Rongrong's life..." An outsider sees things clearly; he naturally knew that the root of everything was this troublemaking brat. He was incapable of taking responsibility for the consequences, and like a fly, he kept interfering at crucial moments. The once harmonious father and daughter had fallen apart because of him...

"Just like your spineless father!" Chen Xin sneered, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Back then, he caused a ton of trouble and just walked away, leaving the Haotian Sect to clean up his mess. He's even been living in seclusion ever since. They're all useless cowards who only know how to cause trouble and have no ability to take responsibility!"

"What did you say?!" Tang San was furious.

Get up from the ground.

The hidden weapon in his sleeve was already loaded.

A murderous intent filled his eyes.

He wanted nothing more than to tear the old man's mouth off.

In his heart, Tang Hao was a hero, a hero of brilliance. Especially after meeting Titan, he became even more convinced of this. But now, he was being slandered by Chen Xin.

He was eager to fight to the death.

"Third Brother!" Ning Rongrong quickly grabbed him.

"Hehe, if there's no place for me in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, then I'll go to Shrek Academy. With you all here, that's my home!" Ning Rongrong glared coldly at Ning Fengzhi, then pulled Tang San and Xiao Wu and turned to leave.

“Rongrong…” Chen Xin opened her mouth.

"Don't call me Rongrong!" The girl's eyes turned cold. "I've finally seen through it all. Your so-called love for me and Grandpa Gu's love is all fake! When it really comes down to it, neither of you will protect me at all."

"Then let's cut ties completely! I won't be called Ning Rongrong anymore, I'm changing my name!"

"..."

Chen Xin's eyes held a mixture of shock, disbelief, and a touch of chill...

He truly never expected that the girl he and his old man had spoiled for so many years would say such heartbreaking things.

Minor mistakes are insignificant; he and Lao Gu were forgiving of them.

But this involves the very survival of the sect, so how can we continue to turn a blind eye?

At this moment.

He even began to wonder if, if he and Tang San were both on the verge of death, facing a life-or-death situation, Ning Rongrong would choose to save Tang San...

"Suit yourself. Just don't use the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's banner anymore," Ning Fengzhi said calmly, waving his hand.

"Hmph!!!" Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth and turned to leave.

In fact, she deliberately slowed her pace, waiting for Chen Xin to call her back and coax her tenderly as always, before she would reluctantly lower her proud, princess-like head.

But not a single sound was heard until she walked out of the auction hall.

"Rongrong, don't take it to heart. Uncle Ning was probably just angry for a moment..." Xiaowu comforted her.

"Tch, who cares?" Ning Rongrong wiped away her tears and forced a smile. "Let's not talk about it anymore, Third Brother, Xiao Wu, let's go back to the academy."

In fact, that's what she thought too.

Her father only said those hurtful things in a fit of anger. In a few days, he might bring gifts and come to Shrek Academy in person to apologize...

Tang San smiled and offered the same words of comfort.

He was extremely angry inside.

They called Ning Rongrong a slut.

If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have fallen out with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I thought Ning Fengzhi was about to agree, but he kicked me at the last minute. How infuriating!

He really needs this money.

At the same time, it can provide some work for the powerful clan and also win over people's hearts, which can be considered killing two birds with one stone.

but……

"idiot!"

Tang San was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth, but he had no choice but to return temporarily.

Now, all we can do is hope that Su Lin is a liar and that Ning Fengzhi will come back to apologize to Ning Rongrong.

If not... where can you find such lucrative profits outside?
……

"Mr. Su, I'm sorry, I've made you laugh..."

Ning Fengzhi gave a wry smile.

“I am not putting on an act for you... She has good talent, but she has not inherited my intelligence. If such a successor were to take the helm, it would be a disaster for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.”

"Rest assured, I swear on the reputation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that Ning Rongrong will never inherit the position of sect leader, and that attack-type soul tool will never be handed over to her."

"..."

Su Wen tapped his leg lightly with his fingertips, appearing thoughtful.

After a long while, a smile finally appeared on his face.

"can."

……

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Headquarters.

Located outside Tiandou City, in the southwest, nestled among several continuous mountains, the entrance is quite treacherous, making it a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

A castle stands atop the mountain, while tens of thousands of ordinary people without any fluctuations in soul power live in the valley.

This scene is very similar to the mortals who depend on the eight ancient clans. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School helps awaken martial souls every year, thereby selecting outstanding individuals. These mortals also benefit from the protection of the other party, and the two sides are mutually dependent.

At the very center of the mountain peak stands the tallest pagoda in the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

It has seven floors and resembles an enlarged version of the Martial Soul Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

And the very top of the tower.

Ning Fengzhi warmly received them.

"Mr. Su, the arrival of Senior Poison is truly an honor for our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."

"Cut~"

With his arms crossed, Bone Douluo took a glass of wine from a tray carried by a passing maid and looked at Su Wen and Dugu Bo with a provocative gaze.

"If I hadn't been careless and fallen for that old poisoner's trick, I would never have let Rongrong be bullied by you guys."

Clearly, Gu Rong was unaware of what had happened; all she saw upon returning was that Ning Rongrong and Tang San had already left.

"..." Chen Xin hesitated, wanting to speak but then stopped.

"Hey, you're still not convinced?" Dugu Bo sneered and stepped forward.

"Of course I disagree!!!" Gu Rong's temper flared up.

"Then let's have a competition!" Dugu Bo refused to back down.

"Compete!"

"..."

"Bone Douluo, he's probably here for me, isn't he?" At the dining table, Su Wen slowly raised his head and said with a smile.

"Hehe, I haven't settled the score with you for bullying Rongrong last time." Gu Rong cracked his knuckles and grinned maliciously.

"Uncle Gu!" Ning Fengzhi said angrily.

“I know!” Gu Rong interrupted Ning Fengzhi, her tone somewhat stiff: “But you don’t care about Rongrong, but my old bastard and I do. If she’s bullied outside, we’ll settle the score.”

"I'll wait for you outside." Gu Rong glanced at Su Wen, then flashed and stood in front of the tower, above a spacious valley.

“Mr. Su…” Ning Fengzhi said awkwardly.

For him, this was a lose-lose situation.

No matter who wins, he won't get any credit.

I should have sent Uncle Bone away.

"Who should we send to break the bones?" Su Wen pondered.

He has no intention of concealing his combat strength.

"Ice, fire, water, wind, thunder..."

"Fine, let's just use brute force to overcome all laws."

Su Wen shook his head.

"Xuanji".

A deep, resonant voice rang out.

"Yes, my lord!"

The moment the sound appeared, Ning Fengzhi felt his hair stand on end. Even Chen Xin beside him was on high alert, his body protected by sword energy, which also enveloped Ning Fengzhi.

Until now.

The two looked at Su Wen, who remained motionless, sitting calmly in the hall, and gently sipping his tea.

Only then did a slight tremor arise from the bottom of my heart.

What a terrifying method...

……

In the valley.

The ancient banyan tree stood majestically, its aura as a Title Douluo surging forth and covering most of the mountain peak. Countless disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cast respectful and awe-inspiring glances its way.

This is one of the guardian deities of their sect.

"Why aren't they here yet? Are they scared?" Gu Rong chuckled, shook his head, and cracked his knuckles.

"Very well, since that's how it is, then I will..."

But as soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze.

His entire body was completely enveloped by a dark shadow at some point—no, half of the valley!

He slowly raised his head, his expression gradually freezing.

A colossal, ferocious beast, with its massive, crimson-gold eyes, silently gazed down at him, revealing a hint of mockery.

"Gu..."

Gu Rong swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"ah?!!"

P.S.: I've been a bit delayed lately. Starting tomorrow, the bonus chapter for the last chapter for the Alliance Leader and the three bonus chapters for monthly votes will be added gradually...
