Chapter 20 Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo

"Why is he here too?" Bai Baoshan muttered. Ning Rongrong could even feel the education commissioner's breathing become rapid, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

The difference between a Soul Douluo and a Title Douluo is only one Soul Ring, but that's a world of difference.

Even the weakest Title Douluo can disregard the imperial family, but Soul Douluo cannot. This is an incomparable difference.

"These three education commissioners are incredibly capable!"

The old man's bright gaze swept over the three Soul Douluo instructors, his tone rather cold.

"Making a prince kneel in public—do you think you have no respect for Emperor Xueye?"

"Your Excellency Poison Douluo, you can't just put on a hat like that." Meng Shenji stepped forward. As the center of the three teaching committee members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he had no choice but to stand up. He first bowed slightly to Dugu Bo as a sign of respect for the titled Douluo.

Then, with a serious expression, he said, "Prince Xue Beng publicly harassed His Highness the Crown Prince's guest. We are here only hoping that His Highness will apologize and provide compensation."

"We never said anything about making His Highness the Fourth Prince kneel. It was all his own doing, which surprised us quite a bit."

"Oh?" Dugu Bo frowned slightly, then his gaze fell from the three education committee members to Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong's clothes were not particularly luxurious, making it difficult for Dugu Bo to determine her identity for the time being.

But how many of those who can cultivate to the level of Title Douluo are fools? His gaze shifted slightly.

"Prince Xuexing, what's going on?"

Although he disliked the actions of avalanches, Prince Snowstar had saved him in a way.

These three education commissioners were Xue Qinghe's men, so he was naturally not going to give them a friendly look, but he still had to find out the truth.

"This...this is all the avalanche's fault," Prince Xuexing said through gritted teeth.

"The avalanche was too unruly and offended His Highness the Crown Prince's distinguished guest."

Avalanche lowered his head and remained silent.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency Poison Douluo," Ning Rongrong said as she stepped forward. "My father often speaks of you, praising your profound knowledge of medicinal herbs."

Who is your father?

Dugu Bo was somewhat unsure of the situation, and Prince Xuexing's behavior was also quite strange.

"My name is Ning Rongrong, and my father is Ning Fengzhi. I'm sure Your Majesty the Poison Douluo should know that," Ning Rongrong said with a slight smile.

"hiss--"

Dugu Bo gasped, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Thankfully, I didn't rush in blindly. I first asked about the whole story. No wonder Prince Snowstar and Avalanche were so reserved.

"Grandpa, isn't Ning Fengzhi the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Dugu Yan asked curiously, "Is Yu Tianheng, who hangs around her like a lapdog all day, a member of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, one of the three upper sects?"

Although Dugu Yan was not a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which was also one of the three upper sects, she had heard of it quite a bit.

"That's right. After the Clear Sky Sect went into seclusion, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was arguably the top sect in the Douluo Continent, even ranking above the Blue Lightning Tyrant School."

After speaking, Dugu Bo composed himself.

Dugu Bo didn't want to offend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

He was speechless. What kind of mess had this spoiled brat Xue Beng gotten himself into?

Not only does Prince Xuexing have to clean up his messes all the time, but now he's dragging an outsider like him into it too.

If it weren't for the favor he still owed Prince Xuexing, he might have left long ago. After all, he has a granddaughter and doesn't want to be targeted by an avalanche.

Every time he goes back, he has to warn his granddaughter to stay away from Prince Xuexing's nephew and to cherish her life.

"Miss Ning, how should we handle the matter of Xue Beng offending you?"

Dugu Bo's eyes darted around, and then he said,

"If it's not a big deal, could you give me, Dugu Bo, some face? I have a pretty good relationship with your father, Sect Leader Ning."

Good fellow, call good fellow.

The three education commissioners stared wide-eyed.

Holy crap, is this guy Dugu Bo?

Is the Poison Douluo who used to be so arrogant and domineering every time he came here really this snobbish?

I used to think all Title Douluos were pretty much the same, but now I see, wow!

"I still have to give His Majesty Dugu face!" Ning Rongrong said after sizing up Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo for a while.

"Besides visiting the Imperial First Academy, I have another purpose in coming to Tiandou Royal Academy this time: to deliver the letter my father wrote to you."

We hope you can visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School when you have time; we will certainly welcome you with open arms.

"The reasons are all written in the letter, and I hope Your Majesty will grant me the honor of reading it."

After Ning Rongrong finished packing the envelope, Dugu Bo immediately went up and took it from her.

He didn't open it immediately, but nodded: "I will definitely go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to complain."

After receiving Ning Fengzhi's letter, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan stepped aside, meaning they would no longer concern themselves with Prince Xuexing's affairs.

Ning Rongrong then turned her gaze to the avalanche, her tone remaining largely calm:

"Your Highness Avalanche, you don't want this small conflict to escalate, do you? The day after tomorrow is the Crown Prince's apprenticeship ceremony."

"If it affects the brotherly relationship between Prince Avalanche and His Highness the Crown Prince, that would be a very troublesome matter."

Ning Rongrong emphasized the words "brotherly affection" more.

Avalanche's body trembled slightly, whether from surprise or fear, it was unclear.

Xue Beng was well aware that if he weren't a spoiled brat, whether he was faking it or not, even if he enjoyed it, he knew that once Xue Qinghe got serious, he might really kill him.

Especially after Prince Snowstar explained the seriousness of the matter, Avalanche became increasingly convinced that this was a possibility.

Since he messed up the apprenticeship ceremony, how could Xue Qinghe not kill him?

Seeing Xue Xing's shocked and frightened expression, Prince Xue Xing stepped forward.

"Young Sect Master Ning, I have a gift to apologize to you. I hope you will like it."

As he spoke, Prince Xuexing handed over a jade box.

"Oh?" Ning Rongrong wasn't worried about Prince Xuexing playing any tricks.

He took the jade box, engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns, from Prince Xuexing.

Ning Rongrong did not open it; her eyelids twitched slightly, and she looked up to meet Prince Xuexing's gaze.

"The jade box is beautiful, and I really like the gift."

"However, Prince Avalanche's matter is not something I can handle alone. In fact, I don't want to make a big fuss about it."

Seeing the slight smile on Ning Rongrong's lips, although he didn't know how she knew what was inside, it didn't matter. It was better not to reveal it in public.

"Young Master Ning, I am already very satisfied that you are willing to forgive Xue Beng's unruly behavior. I don't have any other demands."

"I only hope that my eldest brother's sons can get along well; this is also my wish as their uncle."

"I see." Ning Rongrong was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the three education committee members behind her.

"Could you please not escalate this matter? My father probably doesn't want to get involved in royal affairs either."

"Anyway, is that alright?"

The three education commissioners exchanged glances.

They are Xue Qinghe's people, but they are still loyal to Emperor Xue Ye.

Rumors circulated that the deaths of the Second and Third Princes were related to His Highness the Crown Prince, but this seemed to be baseless.

However, as the education commission, they did not want to interfere in the internal affairs of the royal family.

"We can leave His Highness the Crown Prince out of the question, but His Majesty Xueye..."
