Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 206 Birthday, also the anniversary of parents' death.

"Sigh, if you showed even a little of the drive you have to beat me, you wouldn't be acting like this. I only agreed this time because it was on my way. Don't do it again."

While nodding in agreement, Ning Wuque helplessly advised Wu Feng not to try to slack off on this kind of thing.

If he has the ability in the future, Ning Wuque still wants to eradicate the evil spirit masters. After all, keeping them around is a complete scourge, and everyone in the world should kill them!

But forget about it now, he doesn't have the ability right now, so he doesn't want to think about it. But he wouldn't refuse to kill a few evil spirit masters along the way.

At the same time, it can also be seen as repaying the small favor Ye Wuqing was willing to give him back then. If Ye Wuqing had wanted to that day, he could have easily dragged his feet and walked up there. He probably wouldn't have been able to hold on to it without Ye Wuqing having to do anything.

"Yay! Muma~ Ning Tian, ​​you guys chat first, I'm going to the academy to register and pick up the birthday cake I prepared for Wu Que."

After giving Ning Wuque a big kiss, Wu Feng quickly got off him and rushed out the door, afraid of delaying the old man at the registration office from going back to rest.

Ning Wuque had just poured himself a cup of tea and was about to drink it when he stopped abruptly upon hearing the word "birthday cake."

It seems his birthday is coming up again this year, isn't it? Although he doesn't really want to celebrate this birthday, not only is the date bad, but it's also the anniversary of his parents' death—

If Grandpa Zhang hadn't stopped the news about him when he was a child, perhaps he would have been labeled a "jinx" even more when he was young?

"Happy birthday, Wuque. I was planning to surprise you after you take a shower tonight, but Fengmei is really something."

Holding Ning Wuque's body, Ning Tian grasped the back of his hand, gently guiding him to put down his teacup, and softly stroked it, her voice gentle and tender:

"I'm sorry, I talked to Grandpa Zhang Can and he learned a little about you. When we were little, Fengmei and I never understood why you were so unwilling to celebrate your birthday. It's just a date."

"It's okay, I don't really care about these things. I'm already happy to have someone to celebrate my birthday with."

"When we have time in the future, how about Fengmei and I go with you to pay respects to your parents? By then, we'll be family, and your parents will surely be proud and gratified to know that."

"Okay, let's go together then. It's been a long time since I've visited their graves."

Ning Wuque nodded slightly, his heart filled with mixed feelings. He didn't have much affection for his parents in this life, and he had almost forgotten what they looked like. On the contrary, he had deep feelings for Zhang Can.

However, his previous life was in a country that valued filial piety, and the two concepts of not forgetting the kindness of giving birth and not failing to repay the kindness of raising him were deeply rooted in his heart.

Soon, the atmosphere fell silent, with only Ning Tian's silent comfort and Ning Wuque's mixed feelings of panting.

"I'm back! This cake was specially made to your taste~ Don't be sad."

Pushing open the door, Wu Feng was taken aback upon seeing Ning Wuque's expression. She then kicked the door shut with a twist of her ankle, laughing as she walked in carrying the cake. Casually placing it on the table, she plopped down next to Ning Wuque and reached out to ruffle his cheek.

"Hmph, hurry up and thank me, I specifically asked Grandpa Zhang Can about your favorite flavor when you were little—it's spicy!"

"A spicy cake? I'd really have to try the salty one."

Reaching out, he removed Wu Feng's large, mischievous hand from his face. Upon hearing about the spicy cake, Ning Wuque became quite excited. He had only ever heard of sweet cakes before; this spicy cake was truly like a knife stabbing his butt, opening Ning Wuque's eyes to a whole new world!

No, he has to try something salty.

Upon opening the gift box containing the cake, a pungent, spicy aroma immediately filled the air. Ning Wuque stared at this chili powder cake, which could only be described as a culinary disaster, and was slightly taken aback.

For some reason, he was so frightened that he was hesitant to make a move.

"Want to try some?"

"Then—give it a try."

Seeing the expectant looks in Ning Tian and Wu Feng's eyes, Ning Wuque had no choice but to pick up the complimentary knife and plate, cut off a piece, and place it on the plate. Then, he used a fork to put the cake sprinkled with chili powder into his mouth.

After chewing a couple of times, he realized something was wrong. Why wasn't it spicy at all? Instead, it was very sweet, very sweet!

"Chili powder made with jam and icing sugar—which chef has such superb skills that they can even imitate the taste exactly? A food-type Soul Master?"

"You guessed right! As a reward, you'll shower and sleep with us tonight!"

"Can I have it again? The chili flavor is so strong, it's killing me! *whoosh*"

"No, Fengmei, let's eat something together. We should have something sweet today."

As he savored the cake in his mouth, Ning Wuque was so moved that he wanted to cry, but he found that he couldn't even squeeze out tears anymore.

Steel is intact and undamaged.

"Happy birthday."

"Happy birthday."

Ning Tian and Wu Feng kissed Ning Wuque's stunned cheeks together, adorning his face with a touch of sweet cream and icing.

Wonderful times always pass too quickly.

The following day, Ning Wuque and Wu Feng bid farewell to Ning Tian, ​​who had not participated in the mission, and headed together towards the rendezvous point on the outskirts of Shrek City.

Ning Tian's identity is not that of a simple inner court disciple, so she does not need to complete an inner court inspection mission at least once every six months.

"It seems we arrived quite early. Senior Han Ruoruo, I have long admired the name of the Golden Fairy. Now that I have met you, you are indeed as beautiful as a water fairy and as graceful as a lotus pond."

"Wuque, you have such a sweet tongue. No wonder you can hold two beauties on your left and right sides~ Haha."

Han Ruoruo covered her mouth and chuckled. Besides her, there was also Xixi who had arrived earlier. She was drinking water from her kettle when she saw Ning Wuque and Wu Feng. She put the kettle away as she walked away.

Approaching the two, she, who was only a little over 1.5 meters tall, looked up at them with clear eyes before taking out two macarons from her storage soul tool and handing them over:

"XiXi, please have some."

"Thank you, Xixi."

"Thank you, Senior Xixi!"

Wu Feng took the macaron, popped it into his mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and swallowed it. He then stuck out his tongue to savor it before squatting down and reaching out to pat Xixi's head.

The latter blushed at first, then turned away in embarrassment and anger, hiding behind Han Ruoruo and staring intently at the tall, villainous Wu Feng.

How awful! How could she call her "senior" while simultaneously attacking her most vulnerable spot? How cruel of her!

Xixi dislikes witchcraft.

"Looks like we're the last ones to arrive; everyone else came pretty early."

From afar, Wu Ming and Ling Luochen slowly walked over, and all the members of the team had arrived.
