Douluo Continent: Twin Blue Silver Grasses, Life and Death in Transmission!

Chapter 35 The Olive Branch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School

Meanwhile, Qian Renxue returned to the Crown Prince's residence.

Inside the Crown Prince's residence, Qian Renxue slowly walked into the study. Her interaction with Ye Xuanming had been very fruitful.

Inside the room, a dark figure quietly appeared; it was none other than Yu Long, the Serpent Spear Douluo.

"Young Master, since Ye Xuanming has not agreed, why don't we—" She Long made a throat-slitting gesture.

Qian Renxue raised her hand to stop her and sat down in the chair.

"Don't rush. It's normal for Ye Xuanming to not make a decision at his age. We still have time."

She picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and continued, "Moreover, we shouldn't create any unnecessary complications right now."

She Long knelt on one knee: "Your subordinate understands."

Qian Renxue stood up, walked to the window, and looked into the distance.

"Continue to observe and refrain from making any rash moves for now. Such talent should either be put to use, or—wait for the right opportunity."

"But now is not the time!"

On the other side, Dugu Bo led three young people out of the academy, preparing to return to the Ye residence.

It was already dusk, and the group walked slowly.

-

"Grandpa, is there really a problem with His Highness the Crown Prince?" Dugu Yan couldn't help but ask.

Dugu Bo glanced at his granddaughter: "Yanyan, some things are not as simple as they seem. The political struggles in the Heavenly Dou Empire are more complicated than you imagine."

"But His Highness the Crown Prince seems like a very nice person," Dugu Yan pouted.

"There are plenty of people who seem nice," Dugu Bo shook his head. "In all my years, I've seen far too many people who are two-faced."

Ye Lingling spoke softly, "Senior Dugu is right, we'd better be careful."

Ye Xuanming walked beside him, secretly amused.

If Dugu Bo knew that the "Crown Prince" was actually a member of the Spirit Hall, I wonder what his expression would be.

As they were talking, the sound of horses' hooves came from ahead.

A magnificent carriage slowly approached, its body adorned with dragons and phoenixes, clearly indicating the owner's extraordinary status.

The carriage stopped beside them, the curtain was lifted, and a gentle voice came out.

"Poison Douluo, what a coincidence."

Dugu Bo recognized the person who had arrived and his expression changed slightly. "Sect Leader Ning, what are you doing here?"

The person who stepped down from the carriage was Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

He was tall and slender, with a refined appearance, and his every move exuded aristocratic elegance.

An old man stood behind him.

The old man wore a spotless white robe, his beard and hair were all white, and his long silver hair was neatly combed down his back. He had an ancient appearance, his face was as delicate as a baby's, his expression was indifferent, and his eyes seemed to be unable to see anything around him.

It was none other than Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

"I happened to be passing by when I met them."

Ning Fengzhi smiled gently, his gaze lingering on Ye Xuanming for a moment. "This must be the young friend Ye Xuanming, who has recently gained fame?"

Ye Xuanming quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master Ning, and greetings, Senior Sword Douluo."

"No need for formalities." Ning Fengzhi waved his hand. "I've long heard of your reputation, and meeting you today, I can see you are indeed a young talent."

Chen Xin nodded in agreement: "He is indeed a promising talent. To have such cultivation at such a young age, he is bound to achieve great things in the future."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lengling also quickly bowed.

Ning Fengzhi was very friendly and had none of the airs of the three sect leaders.

"Poison Douluo, if you don't mind, shall we find a place to sit down and chat?"

Dugu Bo looked at Ye Xuanming and nodded in agreement.

The group went to a nearby teahouse and asked for a private room.

After sitting down, Ning Fengzhi took the initiative to speak: "Young friend Ye, I've heard that your martial soul is quite special?"

"It's just a mutated Blue Silver Grass," Ye Xuanming replied modestly.

"Mutant martial souls often contain enormous potential," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. "Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has always enjoyed making friends with talented young people."

Dugu Bo sneered from the side: "Sect Leader Ning, just say what you have to say."

Ning Fengzhi didn't mince words: "I have a daughter named Ning Rongrong, who has innate level nine soul power and is only a little over a year younger than you, young friend Ye."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "The children are all around the same age, so they can get to know each other better and learn from one another."

Dugu Yan's eyes widened. What did this mean?

Ye Lengleng also sensed something was amiss; Ning Fengzhi's words had a hidden meaning.

Ye Xuanming understood that Ning Fengzhi was paving the way for his daughter.

However, Ning Rongrong should still be a little witch in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School right now.

"Sect Leader Ning, you're too kind," Ye Xuanming replied politely. "If the opportunity arises, I would be very happy to get to know Miss Ning."

Ning Fengzhi nodded in satisfaction: "Then it's settled. Rongrong has been spoiled since she was little, and her personality is a bit willful. I hope you'll be understanding, young friend Ye."

Chen Xin added from the side, "Rongrong is indeed a naughty girl, but she is very talented. Her martial soul is the family heirloom Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and her innate soul power has reached level nine."

Dugu Bo listened to their conversation, lost in thought.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's initiative to extend goodwill is no simple matter.

Clearly, Ning Fengzhi also wants to invest.

"Sect Leader Ning, what is this—"

"Haha, Poison Douluo is overthinking it."

Ning Fengzhi laughed heartily, "I just think young friend Ye has great potential and want to make a good connection with him."

Dugu Yan couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "Why does this feel like they're arranging a marriage?"

Ye Leng Leng quickly tugged at her sleeve, signaling her not to say anything out of line.

Ning Fengzhi heard Dugu Yan's words and chuckled, "What the little girl said is not wrong, but the children are still young, and it is too early to talk about these things now."

Ye Xuanming felt somewhat helpless; these important figures always liked to make decisions for the younger generation.

After chatting for a while, Ning Fengzhi got up to say goodbye.

"It was a pleasure to meet you today. If you have the opportunity, you are welcome to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"Definitely, definitely," Ye Xuanming replied politely.

After Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin left, Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xuanming, your talent is truly extraordinary," Dugu Bo exclaimed. "Not only the Crown Prince, but even Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School wants to befriend you; he's even brought up his daughter."

He paused for a moment, then continued his analysis: "You should know that Ning Fengzhi is a thorough businessman. It is precisely because of their skill in investment that their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was able to rise to the top three sects."

"In the early years, it was because they invested in Sword Douluo and Bone that they had two Guardian Douluo, which led to the current Three Upper Sects."

Dugu Yan blinked beside her: "Doesn't that mean Xuanming is very valuable?"

"Yanzi!" Ye Lengleng patted her friend helplessly.

Ye Xuanming shook his head and smiled wryly: "I'm not a commodity."

"But you are indeed very sought after," Dugu Bo said seriously. "Within a single day, both the Crown Prince and the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School took the initiative to curry favor with you. Few young people receive such treatment."

Ye Xuanming said, "Senior, it's not like that. It's just that I'm the only one without a background. My only background right now is you and Aunt Ye."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo smiled.

The group continued walking towards the Ye residence when Dugu Yan suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Grandpa, why were you so cold to Sect Leader Ning just now?"

Dugu Bo explained, "Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is one of the top three sects, they don't have any titled Douluo and can only rely on other forces. Ning Fengzhi is a very shrewd person and never does anything that doesn't benefit him."

"Then his interest in Xuanming means that Xuanming will definitely be very powerful in the future, doesn't it?" Dugu Yan said excitedly.

"That's for sure," Dugu Bo nodded. "But that's precisely why we need to be even more careful. The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind."

Ye Xuanming felt a warm current surge in his heart as he listened to Dugu Bo's words.

Although the old poison master didn't say it, he did indeed treat him as one of his own.

After returning to the Ye residence, Ye Xingyue had already prepared dinner.

"You're back just in time. Wash your hands and eat."

At the dinner table, Dugu Yan excitedly shared her experiences of the day with Ye Xingyue.

"Aunt Ye, guess who we ran into today? The sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

Ye Xingyue asked in surprise, "Ning Fengzhi? What's he doing here?"

"Just passing by," Dugu Bo explained simply. "But he was very interested in Xuanming and even mentioned his daughter."

Ye Xingyue looked at Ye Xuanming thoughtfully: "It seems that Xuanming's reputation has already spread."

"Mom, who is Ning Rongrong?" Ye Lengleng asked curiously.

"The little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has great talent. When Ning Rongrong awakened the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, she had a level nine innate soul power. This is something that many people in Heaven Dou City know."

Ye Xingyue answered.

Dugu Yan pouted: "Another rich young lady, I feel like she'll be hard to get along with."

Ye Xuanming picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks: "We haven't even met the person yet, so don't jump to conclusions."

"Xuanming is right," Ye Xingyue agreed. "But you're still young, so don't think too much about these things."

After finishing dinner, Dugu Bo prepared to leave.

After seeing Dugu Bo off, the three returned to the courtyard.

Night had fallen, and the moon hung high in the sky.

Ye Xuanming sat at the stone table, pondering the events of the day.

Qian Renxue's probing and Ning Fengzhi's overtures both indicate that he has come into the sights of various forces.

Dugu Yan walked over and sat down beside him: "Xuanming, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing much, it's just that a lot happened today."

Ye Lingling also sat down: "Indeed, the probability of encountering the Crown Prince and the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in one day is too small."

"Maybe it's just a coincidence," Dugu Yan said optimistically.

Ye Xuanming shook his head: "There aren't that many coincidences in the world."
