Chapter 127: Did the Raiden Shogun Steal Ei's Dessert?
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's escape was something that Ning Fengzhi had already known about, even before Meng Shenji notified him.
Ning Fengzhi's eye twitched as he looked at the letter in his hand. He could only feel a headache coming on.
"Where did Rongrong and Zhuqing go?"
"Reporting to the Sect Master, Miss Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing have gone to Blue Tyrant Academy in Heaven Dou City."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi nodded thoughtfully.
"Blue Tyrant Academy, huh? Isn't that the one founded by Yu Luomian's illegitimate daughter, Liu Erlong?"
"I see. Continue to protect them in secret."
"Yes!"
Ning Fengzhi gazed in the direction of Heaven Dou City, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
"Rongrong has truly grown up!"
Blue Tyrant Academy, with its faculty and resources, was not as good as Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, but so what? As long as this academy was connected to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, there was no problem!
Thinking about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Ning Fengzhi's face darkened. He recalled his last visit to the clan.
The last time, besides delivering the spirit bone, he had gone to discuss a marriage alliance with the old dragon, Yu Yuanzhen.
And what was the result? A fruitless endeavor!
Ning Fengzhi had always been puzzled about this matter!
When he mentioned the marriage alliance involving Yu Tiankong, the fear that flashed in Yu Yuanzhen's eyes was something Ning Fengzhi could never forget!
That fear was genuine; Yu Yuanzhen almost turned against him over this matter!
If you don't want a marriage alliance, then just say so! Why make such a fuss?
In the end, Yu Yuanzhen even said, "A marriage alliance is possible, but the younger generation must decide their own fate; it is not for me to arrange!"
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi seemed to understand!
Yu Yuanzhen himself agreed to the idea, but he couldn't control Yu Tiankong's marriage!
As for why fear appeared in his eyes, Ning Fengzhi still couldn't figure it out.
Yu Yuanzhen: …
Tiankong is the man chosen by the gods. No, he is the husband of a god!
Asking him to arrange a marriage is practically throwing Yu Yuanzhen into the fire! If that god doesn't show mercy, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could disappear in an instant!
It was already a relief that he hadn't fallen out with Ning Fengzhi right then and there.
A marriage alliance? Just dream about it!
Ning Fengzhi poured himself a cup of tea and once again fell into deep thought.
"Rongrong and Zhuqing, whether in terms of appearance or talent, are outstanding."
"If they work together to win over Tiankong, I refuse to believe that he won't be moved!"
"Sigh, I, the dignified master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, have come to the point of plotting against a child…"
Ning Fengzhi felt somewhat forlorn. What else could he do? He was desperate!
But he, or rather, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, must cling to Tiankong's leg! Not to strive for further advancement in the future, but simply to avoid being wiped out and to safeguard the sect's legacy.
"Everything, for the sake of the sect!"
Ning Fengzhi felt a slight pang of guilt towards Ning Rongrong, but this feeling quickly faded.
After all, both Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had a favorable impression of Tiankong. If they truly married him, they would be happy.
With this thought, the guilt in Ning Fengzhi's heart diminished greatly.
The scene shifts to Tiankong.
"Husband, the dessert I hid… The Shogun ate it," Ei said, her face filled with grievance and a hint of pitifulness in her voice.
Tiankong's arm, which was holding Ei, trembled slightly.
He felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. The Shogun had actually stolen Ei's dessert!
Are you really the Raiden Shogun, or are you Yae Miko in disguise?
Tiankong couldn't help but think so. How could the Raiden Shogun do something like this?
His mouth opened slightly, but he hesitated to speak.
"That was my favorite dessert, the multi-colored dango you made," Ei said softly, her beautiful eyes filled with recollection.
Tiankong: "…"
After thinking for a moment, Tiankong finally said, "Ei, since the Shogun already ate it, how about I make you some more?"
Without a moment's hesitation, Ei nodded eagerly. "Alright, Husband."
"???"
For some reason, Tiankong had the feeling he was being played!
After all this time, both Ei and the Raiden Shogun had come to understand one thing: they truly had zero talent for cooking!
Their martial arts talents were maxed out, but their cooking skills were in the negatives.
As such, Ei and the Raiden Shogun had temporarily given up on cooking.
Desserts didn't just mean multi-colored dango; there were many varieties. This time, Tiankong made a lot of desserts and stored them in his Pure Land of the Heart, where they wouldn't spoil. Making more was no problem at all.
Both Ei and the Raiden Shogun loved desserts. They were both his wings, so of course, Tiankong wouldn't play favorites.
The Raiden Shogun glanced indifferently at Ei. So, this was what they called acting spoiled?
It seemed she should add this emotion to her repertoire. It appeared to work quite well on Tiankong.
Once used, it could result in an endless supply of desserts and some storybooks from the Douluo Continent.
Yes, this act of being spoiled was something she had to master!
"Tiankong, Ei bullied me and stole my storybook," the Raiden Shogun said softly.
Her strength was linked to Tiankong's, and currently, she couldn't evenly match Ei. Losing to Ei was entirely normal.
Tiankong: "..."
Ah, so he finally understood why the Raiden Shogun took Ei's dessert.
Wait, something wasn't right! Why was the Raiden Shogun speaking in this manner?
Tiankong couldn't help but take a deep breath. The change in the Raiden Shogun was truly astonishing!
Well, since they were both his wings, he needed to keep things balanced. Tiankong took the Raiden Shogun to the bookstore for some shopping.
On the Douluo Continent, there were many professions aside from being a soul master.
Among them, being an author was one too.
However, authors here had a somewhat restricted imagination. Rather than writing novels, it was more like they were documenting biographies.
Books such as:
"The Path of Soul Rings for Soul Sect Experts"
"Soul Sovereign: My Battle Experiences"
"I Became a Genius with My Mutated Martial Soul"
...and others.
These books focused on realism, with everything written based on verifiable facts.
In the eyes of ordinary civilians, not to mention a Titled Douluo or a Soul Douluo-level expert, even a soul master or soul grandmaster was seen as a terrifyingly powerful figure.
Seeing such realistic books gave them a strong sense of immersion.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Tiankong's mind. How about teaching the authors of the Douluo Continent a lesson?
He had already thought of a book title:
"Reborn as Pope Qian Xunji, I Lost My Humanity in the Chamber!"
Alright, if that book were published, the entire Spirit Hall would probably hunt him down!
Tiankong quickly shook his head; it was better not to invite such trouble.
After strolling around with his Shogun wife, he bought a large number of novels. They weren't expensive—each book cost only about twenty copper soul coins. A single gold soul coin could buy a lot of them.
"Tiankong, what does it feel like to love someone?" the Raiden Shogun suddenly asked, catching Tiankong off guard.
"That is something that cannot be fully explained in words..."
