Chapter 317 Re-entering Qian Renxue's Secret Chamber
"Rongrong, I'll tell you again, the person we're going to meet later is His Majesty the Emperor of the Heavenly Dou Empire. Remember, don't be impolite, understand?"
Seeing Sword Douluo Chenxin holding Ning Rongrong's hand as they lightly landed on the ground, Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment, looked at Ning Rongrong, and emphasized the same thing to her again.
"Oh, I know, Father, you've muttered that so many times along the way."
Ning Rongrong pouted, looking slightly speechless.
"Alright, Fengzhi, Rongrong already knows. You've emphasized it so many times, I'm sick of hearing it, let alone Rongrong."
Seeing Ning Rongrong pout, Sword Douluo Chen Xin quickly chimed in to speak up for her.
"Uncle Jian, meeting the emperor is no child's play. I'm saying all this to prevent her from causing trouble."
Ning Fengzhi sighed and rubbed his forehead. "You know Rongrong's personality. And Uncle Jian, could you please stop spoiling her like this?"
"As if you spoil me less than I do..." Sword Douluo muttered to himself, then said nonchalantly:
"It's just fighting the emperor in the sky, what's the big deal?"
In the heart of the proud and awe-inspiring Sword Douluo Chen Xin, besides his Seven Kill Sword, Ning Rongrong is the most important person.
Although Ning Rongrong is not his biological granddaughter, Sword Douluo treats her as his own daughter, even more so than a biological granddaughter.
Aside from Ning Fengzhi and his old friend, partner, and rival, Bone Douluo Gu Rong, Sword Douluo Chen Xin basically didn't care about the rest of the Heaven Dou Empire.
So what if he's the Emperor of Heaven? Let him wait.
"Alright, let's go. The banquet should have already started; we're quite late."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said.
If it weren't for their daughter Ning Rongrong insisting on coming along, they wouldn't have been late for Princess Xueke's birthday banquet.
Upon hearing this, Sword Douluo said nothing more and followed after Ning Rongrong.
"Rongrong, you'll be the one to deliver the gift our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School prepared to Princess Xueke later, understand?"
Ning Fengzhi, still feeling uneasy, gave Ning Rongrong another instruction.
"Okay, I understand."
Ning Rongrong gave a weak "oh".
"Um?"
Just then, Sword Douluo Chen Xin suddenly stopped and abruptly turned his head to sweep in a certain direction, his gaze sharp as a sword, as if to pierce one's soul.
"Uncle Jian, what's wrong?"
Noticing Sword Douluo's unusual behavior, Ning Fengzhi stopped in his tracks and immediately asked.
"It seems someone is spying on us in the dark."
Sword Douluo responded in a deep voice, though there was some uncertainty in his tone.
Because in his vast mental perception, there was no one in the area where the spying gaze was coming from.
"Someone's spying on us? Where? Where?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong immediately started peeking around.
"Maybe I'm just imagining things."
After a moment, Sword Douluo withdrew his gaze and shook his head slightly.
"Grandpa Jian is lying, there's no one here at all."
Following Sword Douluo's gaze, Ning Rongrong, who had been staring at empty air for a while, immediately snorted when she heard Sword Douluo's words.
"Haha~~, Grandpa Sword sensed wrong. Grandpa Sword apologizes to Rongrong..."
Sword Douluo laughed and quickly apologized.
"This is the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, so it's normal for there to be some experts secretly deployed and hidden here. The spying that Uncle Jian sensed must be coming from these people."
Unlike Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi was not so naive. He carefully considered and analyzed the Sword Douluo's suspicions, adhering to the principle of "better safe than sorry," and quickly came to what he thought was the correct answer.
Then, he said to Sword Douluo:
"Uncle Jian, as long as they don't harm us, we don't need to pay them any attention. Just be careful."
"clear."
Sword Douluo slightly suppressed his smile and nodded seriously.
Then.
The three of them entered the main hall where the banquet was being held.
In the realm of shadows.
Ye Qifeng's gaze fell on Sword Douluo, and he clicked his tongue in admiration:
"As expected of the swordsman Chenxin who is devoted to the way of the sword, his perception ability is really amazing. He can even detect a clue from my spying gaze in the Shadow Realm."
After a moment, watching Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Ning Rongrong enter the magnificent palace, Ye Qifeng finally withdrew his gaze.
He had no intention of getting to know Ning Fengzhi and the other two, or having any interaction with them. This encounter was purely accidental.
However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is quite interesting.
Despite being a support sect, it managed to rank among the top three sects and even surpassed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, ranking second.
This clearly demonstrates that Ning Fengzhi was a man of great talent and ambition, with superb skills.
It can be viewed from an overall perspective.
Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School ranks second among the three upper sects and seems very strong, it is actually the easiest to control.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is, after all, only a supporting sect, despite attracting many talented Soul Masters with its immense wealth.
However, in terms of loyalty, they are still lacking and cannot compare to the soul master talents cultivated by the clans that inherit combat-type martial souls.
and so.
In terms of overall combat strength and loyalty, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is not even as good as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School.
In the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the only three who are truly outstanding are Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, and Bone Douluo Gu Rong.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was able to rank second among the top three sects because of the prestige and combat power of these three individuals.
The rest are not worth mentioning.
This is why, in the original course of fate, when Bibi Dong launched the Soul Hunting Operation, she first chose to target the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
It's so easy to handle.
If it weren't for that bastard Tang San providing them with hidden weapons to prolong their lives, I'm afraid none of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members would have escaped during the Soul Hunting Operation.
Now that fate has taken a turn, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can no longer enjoy the good fortune it originally had.
As for where they will go from here, that depends on their own performance.
If I still choose to hang out with that bastard Tang San, then...
Ye Qifeng smiled slightly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
After a while.
Ye Qifeng withdrew his gaze, shook his head, and without thinking further, turned and headed in the direction of Qian Renxue's palace.
Not long after.
Ye Qifeng arrived at Qian Renxue's palace.
After greeting Ci Xue, the Porcupine Douluo, he entered the palace and lay down directly on Qian Renxue's bed.
Last night, he didn't sleep a wink in order to help Liu Erlong absorb the immortal Crimson Fire Dragon Mushroom.
Now is the perfect time to catch up on some sleep.
……
Time flew by, second by second.
Before we knew it, it was afternoon.
Surrounded by the fragrant bed and bedding, Ye Qifeng slept soundly and comfortably.
When he opened his eyes and woke up.
The first thing that catches the eye is a stunningly beautiful face and a pair of clear, bright phoenix eyes that are as blue as jewels and as shimmering as water.
"Xue'er?"
Upon seeing that it was Qian Renxue, Ye Qifeng was slightly taken aback.
Qian Renxue had already removed her disguise and reverted to her female form.
At this moment, she was half-lying on the edge of the bed, her elbows resting on the soft bedding, her hands supporting her cheeks, staring intently at Ye Qifeng's sleeping face.
Ye Qifeng suddenly opened his eyes, and in an instant, their eyes met.
"Oh, you're awake."
Seeing Ye Qifeng suddenly wake up, Qian Renxue blushed and immediately sprang to her feet, looking just like a kitten caught stealing food by its owner.
"Xue'er, why didn't you wake me up when you came back?"
Seemingly oblivious to the blush on Qian Renxue's face, Ye Qifeng quickly got out of bed.
"I... I saw you were sleeping so soundly, so I didn't have the heart to wake you."
Qian Renxue fidgeted with a strand of golden hair that fell across her chest, her toes digging awkwardly into the ground.
Actually, she had been back for quite a while.
Seeing Ye Qifeng fast asleep on his bed, he wanted to wake him up.
But when they got closer, they suddenly realized that even when Ye Qifeng was sleeping, he was still incredibly handsome and charming.
As she watched, she found herself irresistibly engrossed in it, unable to tear herself away.
Of course, she wouldn't tell Ye Qifeng about this.
To cover up her embarrassment, Qian Renxue changed the subject and said:
"Speaking of which, Xiao Feng, your alertness needs improvement. I'm so close to you, and you didn't even notice me. You were sleeping so soundly. That won't do."
Unexpectedly, Ye Qifeng explained it as a matter of course:
"Of course, because I consider you the person I trust the most, and I have no defenses against you. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person get so close without me noticing?"
"what?"
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, her face turning even redder, not from embarrassment or shyness, but from being touched by warmth.
She quickly turned around:
"Xiao Feng, do you...do you trust me that much?"
"Of course. If I don't trust you, Xue'er, then who can I trust?"
Ye Qifeng said confidently, looking at Qian Renxue's slender back:
"By the way, Xue'er, I slept on your bed for a while. You don't mind, do you?"
Actually, I trust you too… Qian Renxue thought to herself, then replied:
"No, I don't mind. You can sleep wherever you want."
To avoid making the sentence seem abrupt or ambiguous, she thought for a moment and then added:
"Anyway, I rarely sleep on this bed outside. I usually rest in a private room, and only lie here occasionally."
"I'm relieved that you don't mind."
Ye Qifeng breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face. With a casual wave of his hand, he used his ability to manipulate objects with his mind to tidy up the bed and bedding.
Qian Renxue glanced at Ye Qifeng in surprise, then at the neatly arranged bed and bedding, a glint of light in her eyes, as if she were thinking about something.
"Xiao Feng, can you tell me now why Elder Ghost's strength has suddenly increased so dramatically?"
A moment later, Qian Renxue suddenly asked.
Ever since Ye Qifeng told her about the Ghost's current strength at the banquet, this question has lingered in her mind and never left.
Having finally returned to the palace, it was only natural to ask Ye Qifeng for clarification.
And the gift he mentioned.
Qian Renxue said that she is also very much looking forward to it.
"Come on, let's go to your private room first, and I'll tell you everything."
Ye Qifeng took the initiative to suggest it.
"Okay, come with me."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly, agreeing.
Then, she turned and went to the bedside table in the bedroom. She covered her hands with her soul power and gently twisted a small, exquisite swan statue on the stand next to the table.
Accompanied by a heavy grinding sound.
Suddenly, a hole about one and a half meters tall appeared in the wall at the far end of the bedroom.
This is Qian Renxue's private secret room.
"Xiao Feng, let's go."
Qian Renxue called out again and then went inside first.
Ye Qifeng followed closely behind and entered the secret room as well.
The heavy sound of the stone mill and the soft clicking of the lock closing followed one after another, and the entrance to the secret chamber closed tightly.
Descend the familiar steps and walk through the long corridor, illuminated as bright as day by the glowing gems on the lotus-shaped lamps.
The two finally arrived at the secret chamber deep underground.
Upon entering Qian Renxue's secret chamber again, Ye Qifeng still felt something was amiss.
However, unlike the initial nervousness and curiosity, he felt only calmness at this moment.
Little Xue'er can't just do what she did last time, without saying a word, and come to kill him with the Angel's Holy Sword, can she?
With his current strength, he is probably no match for Xiaoxue'er, since Xiaoxue'er has already learned his Meteor Illusion Movement Technique.
With the Angelic Martial Soul's flight ability and extreme speed, coupled with the Meteor Phantom Movement Technique, Xiao Xue'er's speed, to exaggerate a bit, is probably close to breaking through the sky.
With his current cultivation level, there's no way he could catch up, let alone be a match for him.
If Xiaoxue'er really wants to bring up the sword again, then he only has one choice...
He lay flat and let her do as she pleased.
Fortunately, by this time, Qian Renxue had come to understand her own heart and made up her mind.
How could I possibly kill him for no reason?
It's just that Ye Qifeng is scaring himself.
Qian Renxue didn't even intend to stop in the training ground of the secret chamber, but instead led him straight to the boudoir at the deepest part of the secret chamber.
After entering the secret room.
The two did not speak; only the clatter of their footsteps echoed in the quiet, secluded room.
A cool breeze wafted in from the enclosed room, bringing with it a faint, familiar fragrance that soothed the soul.
For a moment, Ye Qifeng couldn't tell whether the faint fragrance was naturally emanating from Qian Renxue in front of him or coming from the depths of the boudoir in the secret room.
But regardless, it's the unique fragrance that Qian Renxue possesses.
It didn't take long.
After passing through the vast training ground, the two arrived at the boudoir deep within the secret chamber.
Qian Renxue led Ye Qifeng to sit down on the sofa in the hall attached to her boudoir. Her beautiful eyes, brimming with tears, gazed at the latter's handsome face, and a beautiful smile curved her lips.
"Alright, Xiaofeng, let's talk about it here. Tell me the specific reason quickly."
"Oh, I see..."
Ye Qifeng immediately told Qian Renxue the reason for the sudden increase in her strength at the Ghostly Realm.
"So the reason Elder Ghost's strength increased so dramatically is because he consumed a celestial herb?"
Qian Renxue stared wide-eyed, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise.
As the young master of the Spirit Hall and the little princess of the Angel Clan, she was also very knowledgeable.
Naturally, they also knew that rare and precious medicinal herbs existed in the Douluo Continent.
Legend has it that these are divine medicinal herbs, each possessing unique and incredible effects, so much so that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are the creations of heaven and earth.
However, because it is so rare, it seems that no one has ever obtained it, so it has only been passed down in legends until now.
Unexpectedly, the ghost actually obtained one?
After consuming it, he even broke through to the Super Douluo realm with a soul power of level ninety-six in one fell swoop?
Even Qian Renxue was shocked upon hearing such unbelievable news.

The fever has subsided, but the person is completely worn out from coughing...
Typing on my phone is so tiring, my back and waist are aching!
