"Rongrong, what did you just say?"
Ning Fengzhi stared intently at Ning Rongrong, confirming, "Did you just say that your martial soul has evolved?"
Ning Rongrong nodded.
Ning Fengzhi was stunned.
Martial soul evolution?
Did that mean...
Seemingly realizing something, Ning Fengzhi urged Ning Rongrong excitedly, "Quick, Rongrong, summon your martial soul and let Dad have a look."
"Martial Soul Summon!"
Ning Rongrong nodded and then summoned her martial soul.
"One, two, three... eight, nine!"
Ning Fengzhi's eyes widened as he counted layer by layer.
By the time he counted to nine, Ning Fengzhi was so excited that tears streamed down his face.
"Hahaha!"
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
"I, Ning Fengzhi, have finally seen the legendary Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in my lifetime!"
"Heaven bless our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!"
After counting clearly, Ning Fengzhi suddenly burst into laughter.
Those unaware might think he had gone mad.
However, only those from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan understood the profound significance of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
As the continent's premier auxiliary martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda had an exceptionally powerful support effect.
However, due to its flaws, it could never break past level eighty.
That is, those possessing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul could only have a maximum of seven soul skills.
But according to legend, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda could evolve.
Once it evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it could break the restriction, no longer being limited to seventy-nine levels.
It could have two additional soul skills.
Using the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda as an example, the last two soul skills of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda would undoubtedly be incredibly powerful.
The Sword and Bone Douluo were also stunned.
Previously, they had considered capturing Su Bai.
But unexpectedly, he had helped Ning Rongrong's martial soul evolve in such a short time.
This soul beast was too mysterious.
His strength was overwhelmingly powerful, and his methods were inscrutable.
Now, they had no reason to fight anymore.
Because they knew Ning Rongrong wasn't lying, she genuinely chose to stay voluntarily.
The Shrek group was equally shocked by Su Bai's abilities.
No wonder Liu Erlong and Zhu Zhuqing fell so quickly.
So this was the reason.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Su Bai with burning eyes.
If Su Bai was willing to help his martial soul evolve, wouldn't his Luo San Pao have the chance to evolve into a true Golden Dragon?
He would no longer be the waste stuck at level twenty-nine by then.
Would there be any need to study those useless theories?
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang's heart burned with desire.
But he also knew that directly requesting Su Bai's help was impossible.
He needed to offer enough in return.
Yu Xiaogang fell into deep thought.
"Sigh."
Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Rongrong and her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda with a complex expression.
Then he glanced at Su Bai. It didn't seem entirely unacceptable.
Su Bai was strong enough to protect his daughter.
He even helped the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan break their shackles, evolving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pile into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pile Pagoda.
He treated his daughter well, too.
Otherwise, given his daughter's personality, she wouldn't speak for him.
Ning Rongrong added, "Dad, that's not all; my third soul ring is at the ten-thousand-year level."
"What!"
Ning Fengzhi was once again shocked.
Ning Rongrong didn't waste words, directly revealing her soul rings.
Two yellow, one black.
The black soul ring was particularly eye-catching.
Tang San's eyes flickered.
He had seen Su Wulin's soul rings, all of which were black.
It was because of Su Bai's help.
If he could get Su Bai's help too...
But Tang San quickly dismissed the thought.
Su Bai disliked him; otherwise, he wouldn't have forced him to absorb a ten-year soul ring.
It was completely impossible.
So he abandoned the idea.
However, seeing Ning Rongrong's black ten-thousand-year soul ring and thinking about his own white third soul ring, a surge of jealousy grew in Tang San's heart.
"Enough, enough!"
Ning Fengzhi sighed helplessly, then said to the Sword and Bone Douluo, "Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, let's go back!"
"Fengzhi?"
The two Douluo were reluctant. They looked at Ning Rongrong, clearly not wanting to leave her.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head at them.
Then he looked at Ning Rongrong and said seriously, "Rongrong, you've grown up. You have your path to follow. You've chosen to stay, and that's your choice. I won't stop you, but remember, you can always come home if you ever can't stay here."
"Mm-hmm, I know, Dad!"
Ning Rongrong couldn't hold back her tears.
After advising Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi looked at Su Bai and said in a deep voice, "I entrust my daughter to you. If I ever find out that she isn't well, even if it costs me my life, I will make you pay."
Hearing this, Su Bai just smiled and nodded.
Ning Fengzhi hadn't done anything wrong; he was merely fulfilling his role as a father.
He was a father, too, and understood Ning Fengzhi's feelings.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, let's go!"
With that, the three of them left directly.
After Ning Fengzhi and the others left.
The Shrek group was dumbfounded.
What did that mean, no more fighting?
Not saving her?
"Rongrong!"
Oscar looked at Ning Rongrong dazedly, feeling extremely distressed.
He hadn't expected that his goddess would willingly stay with that evil soul beast.
What about him?
And Tang San was still looking around.
But he never saw the figure he longed for.
Su Bai found this quite amusing.
He asked, "Tang San, what are you looking for?"
"Nothing, nothing!"
Tang San shook his head quickly.
He was very afraid of Su Bai, having developed a psychological shadow.
"Really?"
Su Bai looked at Tang San with a half-smile and asked deliberately, "Are you satisfied with the soul ring I helped you get last time? Oh, right. If you need help next time, don't hesitate to ask me directly. I will help."
"No, no need."
Tang San refused hurriedly. What a joke! Letting him help again would mean his future soul rings would all be ten-year soul rings. He wasn't stupid; how could he agree?
"Is that so? What a pity," Su Bai said, looking regretful.
Eventually, Su Bai didn't make things difficult for them and let them leave the Star Dou Forest.
After returning to the cave with Ning Rongrong, she immediately kissed Su Bai.
After a while, she released him and said gratefully, "Thank you for not attacking my father just now!"
If Su Bai had attacked, she wouldn't know how to face him in the future. She was caught between Su Bai and her father, feeling very torn.
Su Bai smiled and said, "After all, he is your father, my future father-in-law. How could I attack him? I was worried about accidentally killing the two Titled Douluo of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, so I had to resort to that."
"Su Bai, you're so good to me!"
Ning Rongrong was extremely moved. She wrapped herself around Su Bai like an octopus, asking for a kiss.
Seeing this, Su Bai naturally didn't hold back. He carried Ning Rongrong to the bed.
After their passionate moment, Ning Rongrong lay weakly in Su Bai's arms. She said bitterly, "Su Bai, your stamina is too good. I can't handle it alone. Why don't you make a bigger cave so everyone can be together?"
Oh?
Hearing this, Su Bai's eyes lit up.
