Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 131 Confession

Ning Rongrong looked somewhat bewildered at this moment. Why?

Why is it that even after she apologized, Ning Feiliu still won't accept it?

She was the beloved little princess of Sword Grandpa, Bone Grandpa, her father, and everyone else. She apologized to him, but he wouldn't accept it.

Ning Rongrong immediately gritted her teeth.

"Hmph! If you don't want to accept it, then don't accept it! Do you think I care?" Ning Rongrong turned and left.

Ning Mingrui ignored her and went to stop Ning Feiliu, who was about to leave.

After all... Ning Rongrong has already apologized, so now it's Ning Rongrong's problem.

On the contrary, Ning Feiliu refused to accept it... and that became his problem.

The reason Ning Feiliu refused was, of course, because...

The person Ning Rongrong killed was the original owner of this body.

He was not the original owner of this body, and he had no right to accept Ning Rongrong's apology on her behalf.

Ning Rongrong should apologize not to him, but to the original owner of the body she caused to die.

What Ning Feiliu actually said wasn't "I don't accept it," but rather "I can't accept it because the person you should apologize to isn't me."

Of course, he couldn't say that, so he said, "I don't accept it."

This naturally led Ning Mingrui to misunderstand, thinking that Ning Feiliu was still angry and would not accept Ning Rongrong's apology.

It's several hundred meters away from the cemetery.

"Fei Liu! Fei Liu!" Ning Mingrui caught up again, stood in front of Ning Fei Liu, sighed, and asked, "Rong Rong has already apologized to you, but you still can't forgive her?"

"Hmm, perhaps so," Ning Feiliu said calmly. "It's not just me who can't forgive, but my elder brother... Ning Feiliu is already dead."

Ning Mingrui paused for a moment, pursed his lips, and said with a complicated look in his eyes, "Yes, Fei Liu, you have really changed a lot compared to before."

"No, I mean it, Ning Feiliu is dead..." Ning Feiliu said, a hint of sadness in her eyes. "The Ning Feiliu of the past... is dead!"

No one knew that a once vibrant life would end tragically in the water.

The reason was simply that he helped his beloved younger sister retrieve paper boats from the lake, but instead, his sister kicked him into the lake as if it were a prank.

Only Ning Feiliu, a soul from another world, knew all of this.

Therefore, he could never forgive Ning Rongrong on behalf of the original owner.

He himself could not forgive Ning Rongrong.

"Fei Liu..." Ning Mingrui felt a pang of pity. Of course, he didn't understand the true meaning behind Ning Fei Liu's words, since Ning Fei Liu was still standing right in front of him. He simply tried to persuade her patiently, "You know, Rong Rong is still your younger sister, and she will be the next sect leader..."

Now that Ning Rongrong has taken the Xuan Shui Pill, she is already a peerless genius with innate full soul power.

Having already shown signs of being the heir to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, her position is now undoubtedly even more secure.

After all, the Xuan Shui Pill, worth a million gold soul coins, was given to Ning Rongrong.

Is there any objection to the position of sect leader now?

Ning Mingrui's implication was that Ning Feiliu should consider her future life in the sect.

Making an enemy of the next sect leader is clearly not a wise thing to do.

"Big brother," Ning Feiliu said calmly, looking at him, "Do you believe I can help you ascend to the position of sect leader?"

Ning Mingrui paused for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "My talent is far inferior to Rongrong's... Father has never favored me as the successor to the sect leader, and to be honest, I have no intention of competing with Rongrong for the position of sect leader."

"What is not mine, I have never even considered overstepping my bounds."

"No, in my opinion... why shouldn't you have the position of sect leader, brother?" Ning Feiliu said seriously. "For Father... Ning Rongrong's position as heir was only because she had enough talent. If... you have more talent than Ning Rongrong, then Father will give you this position."

"More talent than Rongrong?" Ning Mingrui shook his head helplessly and said, "No matter what, I will not compete for the position of sect leader, because... we are all brothers and sisters, we are all family."

He said in a low voice, "Fei Liu... we're all family, and Rong Rong isn't inherently bad. She's just been spoiled too much... I might be nagging a bit, but I know that even I can't force you to do something you don't want to do."

"But..." Ning Mingrui looked at Ning Feiliu sincerely and said, "Feiliu, you must remember, we are always family. We can have conflicts and disagreements internally, but externally... you must help your family and absolutely cannot let outsiders laugh at us..."

Ning Feiliu shook her head, sighed, and said, "I know, big brother, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this."

"However..." He flipped his wrist and took out a small treasure box from his soul tool.

This naturally contains the Mysterious Water Pill.

"This is..." Ning Mingrui asked, somewhat puzzled.

"To be honest, this is the Xuan Shui Pill that's been all the rage lately," Ning Feiliu said with a smile in a low voice.

"Mysterious Water... Pill?" Ning Mingrui paused for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Fei Liu, you really know how to joke. Even the Poison Douluo only refined one Mysterious Water Pill, and only one a year at that. Where did you get a Mysterious Water Pill?"

However, Ning Feiliu smiled slightly and said, "That's all a lie, and besides..."

"The night is dark and silent, the moonlight fills the sky."

As her soul power surged, Ning Feiliu suddenly possessed two unique martial souls: the Folding Mirror and the Soul Severing Blade.

"This...this is..." Ning Mingrui stammered upon seeing the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon, speaking in disbelief.

Ning Feiliu, on the other hand, first retrieved the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon and said with a smile, "Big brother, do you believe me now? This treasure of mine was obtained from our teacher, and it's genuine."

He also stopped pretending and laid his cards on the table in front of his older brother.

I am Yafei, the peerless genius soul master and disciple of the Poison Douluo who has recently become famous in Tiandou City!

Ning Mingrui's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said, "Wait... then you're Yafei, not my third brother!?"

After all, people can change, but their martial soul can never change. If Ning Feiliu's martial soul is different, then he is definitely not the original Ning Feiliu.

Ning Feiliu sighed. Although he was no longer the original Ning Feiliu's soul, his body was indeed Ning Mingrui's third brother, Ning Feiliu.

He summoned his martial spirit again, but this time it was...

"Nine treasures emerge from the glazed tiles." In Ning Feiliu's hands, a nine-tiered pagoda radiating brilliant light slowly appeared.

His Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda did not completely disappear after his martial soul was reforged; instead, it served as an armory, similar to where the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon was stored.

However, he can usually hide it inside his body and not show it outwardly.

"I'm still the same person, except I've had quite a few serendipitous encounters this past year," he said helplessly to Ning Mingrui.

Then he told Ning Mingrui about the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Group's forging method and his subsequent acquaintance with Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo.

However, he was referring to a different version.

The origin of the Crescent Moon Martial Soul forging method... was also attributed to Dugu Bo. It was said that Dugu Bo saw that he had good comprehension and extraordinary talent, so he told him about the Crescent Moon Martial Soul forging method and even helped him upgrade and reforge his Martial Soul.

Ning Feiliu also revealed some of the things that the original owner experienced with Ning Mingrui when they were young, things that only he and his brothers knew about.

Immediately, Ning Mingrui finally believed what Ning Feiliu had said.

He was still quite bewildered, saying, "I never imagined... that a martial soul could be reforged into other martial souls, and that it could even transform a support-type soul master into a battle soul master..."

This is truly unconventional.

No Soul Master would believe such a thing unless they saw it with their own eyes.

But just then...

"Fei Liu!" Ning Mingrui shouted, his eyes burning with fervor.

"What's wrong, big brother?" Ning Feiliu asked curiously. "What's the matter?"

"Your Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method... is an unparalleled transformative technique for us Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters! Moreover, you have already undergone a complete transformation and become a well-known genius in Heaven Dou City... If Dad finds out about this, he will be very happy!" Ning Mingrui said excitedly.

What is the biggest flaw of a Soul Master in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?

Without a doubt, it's the one who can only absorb seven spirit rings and is unable to break through the limitation of the Spirit Douluo realm.

This greatly limits the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters; even those with sufficient talent and resources cannot advance to higher levels of cultivation.

but……

Since support-type Soul Masters all cultivate at a slower pace, it has become so difficult for them to produce even a Soul Douluo, let alone a Title Douluo.

Whether a Soul Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can break through to the Soul Douluo realm or above seems less important.

Especially with the Seven Treasures True Body, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master can still assist his companions at the Title Douluo level without any pressure.

Therefore, this biggest flaw is acceptable.

However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's Soul Masters can only be support-type Soul Masters. This seemingly minor flaw has led the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to rely solely on external battle Soul Masters to protect the sect.

This is a rather big problem.

For this reason, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has always trained non-direct descendants of outsiders to serve as the sect's supreme elders.

Otherwise, if foreign enemies invade, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can only watch helplessly as the school is destroyed and its people perish.

Fortunately, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has always had a top-tier battle spirit inheritance, namely the Seven Kill Sword Spirit of Sword Douluo.

It is obvious that Sword Douluo and his father were both trained by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Therefore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will produce a Title Douluo with the Seven Kill Sword as the sect's Supreme Elder in each generation.

After the previous Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's sect leader once again managed to draw the SSR character Gu Rong from among commoner soul masters, and nurtured him into a new Grand Elder protecting the sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School ushered in its most prosperous period. (In the comics, Bone Douluo is portrayed as a commoner soul master; his origins are not found in the original novel, so the comics' setting is used instead.)

The combination of two titled Douluo of level 95 or above, along with Ning Fengzhi, the strongest support-type Soul Master on the continent, made them virtually invincible on the Douluo Continent.

Even if Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu, and the Spirit Hall's enshrinement hall all don't come out, the previous sect master and the Grand Elder of the Clear Sky Sect together would probably only be able to slightly defeat the Sword Bone Tower combination.

However, despite the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's current unparalleled prowess, ... their future problems are not insignificant.

Because... Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo have no offspring.

Regardless of how many sons or nephews Sword Douluo may have in fanfiction, in the original story, Sword Douluo stated unequivocally that he had no descendants.

Therefore, the martial spirit inheritance of the Seven Kill Sword was also severed in the original storyline with the death of Sword Douluo.

The same goes for Bone Douluo; he also has no descendants.

That's why they treated Ning Rongrong as their own daughter, like their own granddaughter.

Therefore... the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has no successor to the Title Douluo title. Once Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo pass away a hundred years later, they must find a Title Douluo to serve as the pillar of the school.

Otherwise... without a Title Douluo in charge, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would just be a piece of fat meat that anyone could take a bite out of.

This is all because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul cannot be upgraded to the Title Douluo level, and it has no combat power whatsoever.

If their martial souls are combat-type martial souls and they can break through to the Title Douluo realm, would they still need to rely on outsiders to protect their sect?

Ning Feiliu's Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method... perfectly solved these two major flaws!

At that time, some of the direct disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who have a fighting spirit will use the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Group forging method to change their profession to Battle Soul Master.

Some of the more laid-back direct disciples still use the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

With everyone working together, there would be no need for outsiders to protect the sect!

His Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can protect itself!

Therefore, Ning Mingrui was very excited. With the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Group forging method, who could stop the rise of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future!

Moreover, Ning Feiliu has also undergone a complete transformation, becoming a genius battle spirit master.

This is double the joy! If her father, Ning Fengzhi, knew, he would be overjoyed.

"Big brother..." However, Ning Feiliu shook her head, pouring cold water on Ning Mingrui's enthusiasm, and said, "I don't want to tell Father about this."

"Why?" Ning Mingrui froze on the spot, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Fei Liu! Tell your father about this, and then promote the Remnant Moon Martial Soul Group's forging method. My Ning family of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda will be free of constraints! We may even have a chance to take the throne of the number one sect in the world."

"The Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method... To be honest, brother, this method is incredibly dangerous, with a near-certain death rate. Moreover, the three immortal herbs required—the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, the Blazing Apricot Blossom, and the Qiluo Tulip—are truly rare and precious treasures, born from the very essence of heaven and earth." Ning Feiliu first explained how dangerous the Crescent Moon Martial Soul Forging Method was, then stated the conditions, saying, "Now that I've already consumed the immortal herbs, it's extremely difficult to obtain all three at once again. Therefore, it's very unlikely that anyone will be able to replicate my path to success."

Ning Mingrui paused for a moment, then said, "Then... Fei Liu, your martial spirit can also be passed down to future generations. If your father finds out, he will definitely make sure that your lineage becomes a lineage of guardian elders in the future. This is something to be happy about."

"And these immortal herbs... with the financial and human resources of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, what if we find another batch in the future?" he said hopefully.

Ning Feiliu shook her head helplessly and said softly, "Big brother, actually it's mainly because... I don't want to tell Father about this."
