After entering Pope Hall, Ning Rongrong felt like she was being watched by many Spirit Hall Soldiers guarding the place...
She couldn't help but get a bit closer to Xu Sheng, then asked, "Hey, what's your name again?"
Xu Sheng glanced at her and answered, "My name is Xu Sheng!"
When Ning Rongrong heard this name, she was quite puzzled and said, "Xu Sheng? I feel like I've heard this name somewhere, but when I think about it, I can't recall!"
Unable to figure it out, she shook her head vigorously...
Then, with an indisputable tone, she said, "Never mind, that is, Xu Sheng, my name is Ning Rongrong, you should know my status."
"From now on, you are responsible for showing me around Pope Hall, and if you keep me satisfied, I will have my father reward you with some items when we return!"
It was only because Xu Sheng was handsome enough that she was willing to let him follow her around!
If it were someone else, they wouldn't have the qualification!
Without changing his expression, Xu Sheng responded, "Mm, then I'll thank Sect Master Ning in advance!"
He didn't believe that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could offer anything impressive!
The corner of Ning Rongrong's mouth curled up slightly, "Don't be in such a hurry to thank me, I said it has to be satisfying!"
While conversing, they happened to bump into Flame coming from the opposite direction...
Flame immediately showed an angry demeanor, but upon seeing it was Xu Sheng, his anger dissipated in an instant...
"Xu... Xu Sheng, I've finally found you, where did you just run off to?"
Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then explained, "It's nothing, just..."
Before he could finish, Flame's gaze had already locked onto Ning Rongrong beside him...
Excitedly rubbing his hands together, he said, "Xu Sheng, who is this lady beside you??"
Last time he brought over a few beauties from Skywater Academy, and this time, he had actually brought another one!
And based on her attire, she likely came from a Great Sect!
Xu Sheng chuckled and replied, "She is the Sect Leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's daughter, Ning Rongrong!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Flame's eyes lit up with a fervent glow...
Brazenly getting closer to Ning Rongrong, he stretched out his hand and said, "Well then, Rongrong, my name is Flame, welcome to Pope Hall. If you don't mind, may I show you around?"
At this moment, he had already realized that there was no possibility between him and Hulena, so he decisively gave up!!
Who knew Ning Rongrong would slap away his arm, with great disgust she said, "Yuck, I don't want to, you're too ugly!!"
"And don't you start calling me so familiarly, I don't know you!"
Flame could only feel like his heart had been pierced as he stifled a spiritual pain, "Pfft..."
He wasn't really handsome, but he was definitely not related to the word ugly at all!
He tried to put on a brave face and said, "Rongrong, you really know how to joke!"
Ning Rongrong's Beautiful Eyes narrowed as she emphasized, "Who's joking with you? You are indeed the ugliest man I've ever seen!!"
Flame got angry, subconsciously clenching his fists, "Xu Sheng, this person... really pisses me off, can I hit her?"
Such a beautiful face of hers appeared so hideous at the moment!!
Ning Rongrong also didn't back down, retorting, "You think you can hit me? I dare you!!"
Such a person, even physical contact was disgusting!!
The gazes they exchanged were full of gunpowder...
Left with no choice, Xu Sheng had to speak up to calm the situation, "Flame, Rongrong, both of you calm down a bit!"
Hearing this, Flame and Ning Rongrong folded their arms and stepped aside...
"Hmph!"
Not long after, Evil Moon and Hulena also arrived...
Seeing this scene of mutual antagonism...
```
Hulena expressed her confusion, "What... what is going on? Has Flame had a conflict with that kid?"
Evil Moon thought it over calmly, "Nana, for this problem, we might have to ask Xu Sheng."
By now, he had gradually gotten used to the sudden intrusion of some utterly unfamiliar guys in the Pope Hall!
After all, that guy could literally live off his face!
Just as Xu Sheng was about to speak, Flame came running up to Hulena and Evil Moon with tears in his eyes, "This guy, as soon as we met, he said I was ugly. Nana, Evil Moon, you have to clear my name!"
Evil Moon covered his mouth and coughed, "Flame, regarding this matter, it is indeed difficult to vindicate you, since you really don't meet the human standard of beauty!"
Hulena agreed, "Mm, especially the scales covering your cheeks and chin—it's probably because of your Martial Soul!"
The reason she hadn't taken the slightest fancy to Flame might just be that!
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong bragged, "See, even your friends are saying you're ugly, although those two aren't much to look at either!"
"At most, they are just average!"
This statement directly resulted in Hulena and Evil Moon turning grim on the spot...
They felt they could understand why Flame had started arguing with him!
Such a poisonous-tongued guy was really asking for a beating!!
Xu Sheng took a deep breath and sighed, "You truly deserve the title of 'little witch,' daring to offend so many people upon arriving at the Pope Hall!"
But why did she come to the Pope Hall alone, without any strong protectors by her side?
Even if relations between the Martial Soul Hall and the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect had not worsened, Ning Fengzhi wouldn't be so careless!
So, the answer was obvious—Ning Rongrong had given her escorts the slip and left on her own!
...
The Spirit Hall Soldier tasked with delivering messages bowed and reported, "Your Holiness, according to the news from the Spirit Hall Executive responsible for inspections, someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has entered the Martial Soul City!"
Bi Bidong's purple pupils showed a rare expression of surprise, "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? This is quite unusual; as far as I know, disciples from that sect seldom leave their grounds!"
Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was one of the upper three families, its disciples were mostly support-class Soul Masters with very weak self-defense capabilities.
They generally stayed within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for cultivation.
Upon hearing this, the soldier cautiously said, "Your Holiness, should we capture this individual for interrogation?"
Bi Bidong shook her head and replied, "No, if we use force, it might provoke the hostility of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"Have someone observe in secret and capture them immediately if any abnormal situation arises!"
"If not, then there's no need to bother!"
"Yes..."
Before the soldier could finish responding, another Spirit Hall Soldier rushed in and reported, "Your... Your Holiness, just now, Ning Rongrong, the daughter of the Sect Leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, has entered the Pope Hall by herself!"
Bi Bidong frowned, "Entered the Pope Hall? Where is she now?"
What exactly was that Ning Fengzhi guy up to?
The former bowed his head, "Your Holiness, at this moment, Ning Rongrong is with the Spirit Hall Golden Generation!"
"They seem... to be getting along quite well!"
Hearing this, Bi Bidong seemed to realize something...
Muttering, "Could it be that just like those girls from Skywater Academy, she specifically came for Xu Sheng?"
I never imagined that this young man's personal appeal would be so great!!
That he could even attract the daughter of the Sect Leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!!
