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

Chapter 143 Request

Upon hearing Ning Mingrui's voice, Ning Feiliu immediately opened the door.

Sure enough, he saw his elder brother Ning Mingrui standing outside the gate, his eyes filled with complicated emotions upon seeing him.

"Big brother, you... you've figured it out?" Ning Feiliu immediately understood and said with a smile.

"Fei Liu... there's actually something else I want to ask you." Ning Mingrui didn't answer directly, but hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice.

"What is it?"

Ning Mingrui looked around carefully, took a step forward, and whispered in Ning Feiliu's ear, "Has your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul... evolved to nine levels and become the legendary Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the sect?"

Ning Feiliu had nothing to hide, so she nodded and said, "Hmm... This is the effect of a fairy herb called Qiluo Tulip. This fairy herb is the king of fairy herbs, and since it is originally the ultimate metal attribute, it can help our martial soul advance further."

"Big brother, I've thought it over. Although I've already eaten this immortal herb, I'll eventually master the cultivation technique for immortal herbs. At that time, you'll also have the opportunity to consume this immortal herb and evolve your martial spirit."

"When the time comes, as the sect leader, you will be able to pass on the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial spirit!"

Hearing Ning Feiliu's patient persuasion, Ning Mingrui simply sighed and said, "I actually understand what you mean, Feiliu... You don't need to say anything more, but I still hope that you won't hold a grudge against Rongrong anymore. After all, we're family."

Ning Feiliu shook her head and said, "Big brother, you may have some misunderstanding about me. Although I don't like Ning Rongrong, I have never taken the initiative to cause her trouble. It's always her who causes me trouble... Actually, as long as she stays calm, I won't do anything to her."

As mentioned before, what can he do to Ning Rongrong, his "younger sister"?

To kill Ning Rongrong just to avenge the death of the original owner, a crime known only to himself, is indeed going too far.

Ning Feiliu has taken over the original owner's body and identity, but in the end, he still has to live for himself.

Ning Rongrong may not have done it on purpose. As we know from the original plot, this willful little princess cannot have all her crimes erased by simply saying "she is not bad by nature".

But it doesn't mean they do evil for pleasure or are utterly heinous.

Ning Feiliu could roughly understand that her prank had gone too far and accidentally led to the original owner's death.

He simply couldn't forgive her, nor could he forgive her on behalf of the original owner.

However, he cannot judge Ning Rongrong because of this, especially since in the eyes of outsiders, he had only fallen into the water and become seriously ill.

The previous times, it wasn't Ning Feiliu who went to cause trouble for Ning Rongrong; it was Ning Rongrong who gave Ning Feiliu the opportunity to lash out.

Ning Feiliu did intend that although she could not forgive Ning Rongrong, nor could she forgive Ning Rongrong on behalf of the original owner, she would not do anything to Ning Rongrong.

Why bother with her?

Without the Qiluo Tulip, even with Tang San's help, Ning Rongrong would find it difficult to break through to level 80 in soul power.

With Ning Feiliu's help, Ning Mingrui was able to break through to level 80 or even level 90 in soul power, become the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and it was not impossible for him to become a god in the future.

At most, Ning Rongrong will only be an elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future. If she cannot break through to level 90 in soul power, she will only have the lifespan of an ordinary mortal.

Once Ning Feiliu attains godhood and enjoys eternal life, he will freely look down from the divine realm upon Ning Rongrong as she sinks into oblivion and dies of old age in the mortal world.

However, Ning Mingrui sighed and said, "I know what you mean, Fei Liu, but what I want to say is... we are like siblings. I don't expect you to help Rongrong like you help us brothers, but in front of outsiders, I hope you will help Rongrong no matter what, so that outsiders won't laugh at us."

Ning Mingrui's words reminded Ning Feiliu of how the Shrek Academy students ostracized Ning Rongrong in the original storyline.

However, Ning Rongrong was indeed in the wrong that time. Moreover, if it really takes outsiders to teach Ning Rongrong a lesson before she learns to restrain her willful nature, then Ning Feiliu thinks it's better to let Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others give Ning Rongrong a big lesson.

Therefore, Ning Feiliu remained noncommittal and said indifferently, "Brother, if having an outsider come can make her more aware, why help her? Sometimes, if it's only effective to have an outsider teach her a lesson when she doesn't listen to her family, I think that's the right thing to do."

Ning Mingrui paused for a moment, then sighed deeply and said seriously, "Sigh... Fei Liu, don't you think Rongrong is really like you say, someone who doesn't care about her family and can only be disciplined by outsiders? Besides, it's ultimately a dishonorable thing for outsiders to discipline her... Never mind."

He took a deep breath and pleaded, "I know you've already made up your mind, and I can't persuade you... I'm begging you, no matter what, in front of outsiders, you must treat Rongrong as your sister and protect her."

After saying that, Ning Mingrui's legs went weak and he knelt down before him.

"Hey! Big brother!" Ning Feiliu quickly grabbed him, preventing him from kneeling before her.

Ning Mingrui didn't actually force him to kneel down; he simply looked at him intently with bright eyes and asked, "Fei Liu, are you willing to say yes?"

Faced with Ning Mingrui's attitude that he would have to kneel and beg if he didn't agree, Ning Feiliu sighed and gave in, "Big brother, sometimes you really are too kind."

"How can it be considered kind to treat your younger siblings and relatives well?" Ning Mingrui stood up with a smile, knowing that Ning Feiliu had agreed to his request.

"Big brother...sometimes, I really admire you. You are a truly good person, so I feel that you are more qualified than anyone else to sit in Father's position." Ning Feiliu shook his head and said with a smile.

Ning Mingrui's personality... is indeed very suitable for being the head of a sect and the head of a family. Perhaps he is not as smart as Ning Fengzhi, but he is fair and cares about his relatives regardless of their talent or strength.

It is precisely because of this that the sect members can be won over.

At least... Ning Feiliu didn't leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School because of her older brother Ning Mingrui; she left long ago after obtaining the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon Martial Soul Set.

"I'm just a slow-witted person... but since I've already agreed to your request, Fei Liu, you should be able to tell your father about your current changes now, right?" Ning Mingrui said with a smile.

"Perhaps..." Ning Feiliu immediately stopped resisting the matter. After all, he was going to help Ning Mingrui seize Ning Rongrong's position as the sect leader's successor, so it was unlikely that he would not come forward to negotiate terms.

Should I just tell Ning Fengzhi all this directly?

Some of them are not suitable.

"Let's take it slow, there's no rush for now," Ning Feiliu said immediately.
