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

Chapter 275 Ning Fengzhi's Worries

After sensing that Ning Feiliu seemed to be distancing herself from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and wanted to leave after repaying the debt of giving birth to her, Ning Fengzhi dared not provoke Ning Feiliu's displeasure.

So now he can only...

"Fei Liu, your father is doing this for your own good," Ning Fengzhi said earnestly. "After all, it's not easy for you to explain to Mr. Dugu."

"Father, I know, don't worry," Ning Feiliu said calmly.

However, he had never told Dugu Bo about his relationship with Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, so he wasn't very confident.

After all, if you put yourself in his shoes, what if he had a daughter, but she was willing to share a man with another woman?

All I can say is... he might think his daughter has been deceived by that man, or that he's bewitched her.

In short, people can be hypocritical at times.

However, if Ning Feiliu were to consider the issue from the perspective of someone whose own behavior was not particularly correct, he would not insist that his daughter could not share a husband with another man.

The premise is that the man is in a similar situation to him, and that he genuinely cares for his daughter.

But Dugu Bo... is clearly a pure love god of war. His wife died when he was young, and he has never had another woman all these years.

His son also inherited his talent, becoming a pure love god of war as well.

Therefore, it would be extremely difficult to expect Dugu Bo to understand Ning Feiliu's scumbag behavior.

But it's not a big problem. Ning Feiliu has the Snow Emperor protecting him, so Dugu Bo shouldn't be able to kill him.

Of course, Ning Feiliu wouldn't let Xue Di do anything to Dugu Bo, after all, he was indeed in the wrong first, and Dugu Bo was still his teacher...

At that time, he can only strive to become stronger, and then give Dugu Bo a great-grandson with Mr. Dugu Yan.

Old people... they're all soft-hearted.

Surely no one would really be so cruel as to completely kick their children out of the house just because their marriage isn't to their liking, or even turn a blind eye to their daughter-in-law's pregnancy?

"Alright..." Ning Fengzhi didn't say anything more.

But then he remembered what Ning Feiliu had mentioned about the enhanced soul tool and asked, "Then Feiliu, the enhanced soul tool you mentioned..."

"Yes, based on the soul skill core of a soul beast, the effect of the soul skill attached to the soul tool can be enhanced, but the difference between the core of a thousand-year soul beast and the core of a ten-thousand-year soul beast is not that big," Ning Feiliu said. "After all, they do not determine the power of the soul skill. What truly determines the power of the soul skill is the input power in the soul power crystal."

It's essentially like the four tires of a car. What truly determines whether a car can run faster isn't the quality of the tires, but rather the car's engine.

Therefore, the better the requirements of the soul beast core, the more powerful the soul skill attached to the soul tool will be. Rather, it depends on the soul power crystal.

However, since the Soul Power Crystal can supply enough Soul Power to release Invincible Golden Body three times, Ning Feiliu felt that the upper limit of the Soul Skill Core could be slightly increased, and then... it could be turned into a Soul Skill that releases Invincible Golden Body once.

He even had a thought: since they are arm guards, wouldn't it be normal for him to wear two arm guards?

At that time, the gauntlet on the left will be the standard version of the Explorer's Gauntlet, while the gauntlet on the right will be the enhanced version of the Explorer's Gauntlet.

Then use the arm guards as needed. When facing attacks from a Title Douluo-level expert, use the enhanced version of the Explorer Arm Guards. When facing attacks from Soul Masters below the Title Douluo level, the regular version of the Explorer Arm Guards will suffice.

Or, in the future, it could be upgraded to allow users to use invincible invincibility of varying strengths according to their wishes.

But he doesn't have that time yet, because the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament will begin in less than two years.

Before that, he had to complete the missions of traveling to the ruins of the fallen Thor and the northern border of the continent, and then find a way to join Tianshui Academy to participate in the upcoming continent-wide advanced soul master competition.

After all... Tianshui Academy really doesn't accept male students.

Ning Feiliu became a teacher at Tianshui Academy because Tianshui Academy did not have a written rule against hiring male teachers.

However, the rule that male students are not accepted is clearly stated in writing.

The difficulty levels of these two are completely different.

The former is like this: if a Hui Muslim son-in-law eats pork, it is not allowed in principle, and he might even argue with you and get angry.

However, if the principle is that many of the assets are in the hands of the son-in-law, then it is acceptable. It might not be a problem for him to give you a whole family of three and a pig.

But the latter is about making a traditional Hui Muslim eat pork... that's definitely impossible.

Therefore, Ning Feiliu even felt that the very fact that this mission led him to join Tianshui Academy was a test in itself...

Therefore, he might need to persuade the dean of Tianshui Academy to make preparations in advance.

As for the soul tool... let's leave it at that for now.

Anyway, it's enough for now. With this invincible golden body effect, we can mass-produce hundreds or thousands of sets and equip them on our direct disciples.

Furthermore, there are the upcoming "Moonstone Regenerator," "Regenerating Rabbit Shoes," and "Phoenix Serpent Wings," which will be equipped with...

If the Spirit Hall dares to invade, we will surely make them suffer a crushing defeat!

"Then could we perhaps..." Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Feiliu with some anticipation and said.

He wanted Ning Feiliu to produce more of these enhanced soul tools, since having such a life-saving skill would be crucial in the battles between Title Douluo powerhouses.

Sometimes that can directly determine the outcome of a match.

Ning Feiliu casually remarked, "Actually, it's just that there's a slight difference in the quality of the soul skill core, as well as some differences in craftsmanship."

The efficiency of the soul power crystal input for releasing three Invincible Golden Body attacks at once will naturally result in slight differences in the soul tool imprint.

So there will indeed be some differences.

"Just follow the methods I left behind and make it as needed," Ning Feiliu said casually.

He really didn't have time to make more soul tools; the research and development of soul tools was already exhausting enough...

Let's go see Sister Yan and Lingling again tonight and relax a bit.

Ning Feiliu immediately thought so.

"Alright then, in that case, we'll listen to Fei Liu." Ning Fengzhi nodded immediately and agreed.

"Okay, Father, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now," Ning Feiliu said immediately. "You can have that Explorer's Armguard."

"Alright, go ahead," Ning Fengzhi said, having no further objections.

Ning Feiliu immediately made a quick getaway. He planned to find Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling and spend another sleepless night together.

Sometimes, this stuff really can be addictive.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, in particular, are exceptionally beautiful girls.

He became somewhat addicted to it.

After he left, Ning Fengzhi looked at the blue-gold gauntlet in Sword Douluo's hand and said with emotion, "Fei Liu's talent is far more impressive than we imagined."

"Yes, under Fei Liu's leadership, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely become stronger in the future. I even think..." Bone Douluo said with a smile, "maybe in the future we will be able to compete with the Spirit Hall."

"Fengzhi, you can have this for now." Sword Douluo handed the Explorer's Armguard to Ning Fengzhi and said, "If what Fei Liu said is true, you'd better be careful."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi immediately recalled what Ning Feiliu had just said: that "Xue Qinghe" was a spy from the Spirit Hall, and that she was actually a woman? The daughter of the former Pope?

He was somewhat unwilling to believe it, but Ning Feiliu's resolute attitude and his vague feeling told him that it might be true.

"The Spirit Hall... actually dares to plot something so grand? But over the years... it has indeed..." Ning Fengzhi said thoughtfully.

Over the years, the Douluo Continent has become increasingly peaceful, which is undoubtedly thanks to the Spirit Hall.

This forced the two great empires to establish a complete and generous subsidy system for Soul Masters, severely restricting the power of Soul Masters to prevent them from killing indiscriminately, protecting Soul Beasts, strictly prohibiting Soul Masters from indiscriminately killing Soul Beasts, establishing corresponding systems, and expelling corrupt Soul Masters...

For ordinary people, this is naturally the best thing ever.

However, in the eyes of the Soul Masters and the two great empires, it seemed as if the Spirit Hall was declaring its sovereignty and power.

The two great empires had no choice but to bow down and were forced to spend a large portion of their national treasury every year on the Soul Master subsidy system.

But they had no choice but to do it, because the Spirit Hall was...

It implies that if the two great empires hadn't done this, they would have paid for it.

However, the Spirit Hall was originally a powerful force that all the Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent aspired to, as evidenced by the fact that in the later great war, the Spirit Hall accounted for nearly 70% of the total number of Soul Masters on the continent.

It can be said that if the Spirit Hall were to pay this amount, one to two out of the remaining 30% of the Spirit Masters would join the Spirit Hall's ranks.

All that's left are the Soul Masters from major forces like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant School, as well as the Soul Masters trained by the two great empires themselves.

Therefore, the two great empires had no choice but to grit their teeth and scrape together the money from their already strained treasuries to cover this expenditure.

This also shows just how powerful the Spirit Hall is. And the stronger the power and the more assertive the claim to sovereignty, in Ning Fengzhi's view, that means...

Greater ambitions and aspirations.

If a prince goes to his fiefdom to eat, drink, and have fun, the ruler will not worry, because such a prince has no ambition to dominate.

However, if that prince, after taking up his fief, suddenly starts farming, distributing porridge to the needy, winning people's hearts, eagerly seeking talented people, and even begins building city walls.

Then the ruler would worry that he might rebel.

Clearly... that's how the Spirit Hall is now, using all sorts of methods to win people's hearts and minds; their ambitions are obviously quite large.

Ning Fengzhi is now beginning to believe Ning Feiliu's words. Perhaps... the Spirit Hall really did send a spy to infiltrate the palace and carry out a substitution, and later even wanted to take the place of the emperor!

"I really have to give His Highness the Crown Prince a try," Ning Fengzhi said after thinking it over.

These past few years, the Crown Prince has been in his twenties, yet he still doesn't have a girl he likes or a Crown Princess, which is indeed quite strange.

After all, food and sex are human nature. You know, over the years he has also been unable to suppress his male desires, using the guise of helping girls in distress to make them willingly submit to him.

It's clearly wrong that Xue Qinghe, a young man full of vigor, doesn't have any sexual needs at this age.

"Perfect timing... His Highness the Crown Prince will be attending the auction soon." Ning Fengzhi immediately thought of this and made a plan in his mind.

Just as he was about to make a proper plan and test Qian Renxue...

"But Fei Liu is really popular with girls. I didn't expect that four girls who sound pretty good would like him, and even be willing to share him with other girls." Bone Douluo said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Fei Liu's talent and ability need no further explanation, and Yan Yan and Ye Lingling's achievements today are inseparable from Fei Liu. Even the two girls Fei Liu met outside may be the same." Sword Douluo shook his head and revealed the truth.

After all, Ning Feiliu herself was able to transform from a 2.5-level innate soul power into the peerless genius who is now unparalleled in the entire continent.

Then he can certainly turn other people with decent talent into unparalleled geniuses.

It all comes down to... whether he wants to or not, and whether he has the opportunity.

"Fei Liu is indeed... With his abilities, anyone he wants to help can become a peerless genius." Ning Fengzhi nodded with emotion, but then sighed and said, "It's a pity I didn't see his outstanding abilities sooner."

"Feng Zhi, it's not too late now. Look at Fei Liu, he still cares about the sect after all," Sword Douluo quickly comforted him with a smile.

Bone Douluo thought so too, saying, "No matter what, Fei Liu is a disciple of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, your child. Even if the bones are broken, the bloodline is still connected. Fei Liu is just like that. He even researched such a powerful soul tool to protect the sect."

However, Ning Fengzhi gave a wry smile and said, "Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, do you really think so?"

Before Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo could answer, he continued, his voice filled with complex emotions, "I always have this feeling that Fei Liu has always been repaying something, as if... repaying the kindness of us for giving birth to him and raising him, and as well as the help Ming Rui gave him..."

"He never asks us for anything. On the contrary, he keeps giving the sect those rare and precious materials, those potions, and even this soul tool for free... What he wants is just a drop in the ocean compared to what he gives us... And his attitude has always been distant from us..."

"Perhaps... he plans to leave us completely in the future, and he might not even want the position of sect leader," Ning Fengzhi said with mixed feelings.

"No way..." Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo said subconsciously.

However, when they recalled Ning Feiliu's behavior and attitude all along, including his indifferent attitude towards his father Ning Fengzhi just now, and even his claim that it was his business...

That's definitely a feeling I have.

"Feng Zhi... we can't let Fei Liu leave the sect. He's the key to the sect's future rise. I even feel that he can lead our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to the level of the Haotian School, or even surpass the Haotian School in status." Sword Douluo said in a deep voice.

"But what can we do now to win back Fei Liu's heart? We've neglected him too much all this time. This deep-seated problem didn't arise overnight. I'd rather he hate me than ignore me and treat us like distant relatives," Ning Fengzhi sighed.

"This..." Ning Fengzhi couldn't think of any way to persuade Ning Feiliu to stay, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo naturally didn't know what to do either, so they were all speechless.

I watched the game for a while tonight, but I don't have enough time to write. I'll just write a thousand words for now, and I'll revise it after I finish watching the game. Then everyone can refresh the page.
