Chapter 76: Rong Rong's Home Visit (Final Part)
The Bone Douluo's body trembled in shock, unable to process what he had just been told and fell back to the sofa, almost breaking it on impact.
"Oh, so that's all it was, so she is no longer a virgin… no longer… a virgin… What! You said that she is no longer a virgin?!"
Ning Fengzhi didn't completely process the information and was still thinking about Rong Rong's foundation.
However, as he became aware of the words 'no longer a virgin', his expression became disbelieving as his eyes almost popped out of its sockets.
The white-haired old man slowly nodded his head, "Right…"
Rong Rong's face went a bright red as she blushed shamefully, 'Hateful Grandpa! How could you tell them, I wanted to tell them slowly!'
Ning Fengzhi shock was quickly converted into rage as he glared at Rong Rong, "You! Explain yourself! You went and had sex, knowing our clan traditions!? I didn't end your little relationship because I assumed you wouldn't do anything drastic, but now you are no longer a virgin?"
"I know our clan's traditions! He meets all the conditions already. He isn't an Auxiliary System Spirit Master, and he is a once in a lifetime genius! He will definitely become a Titled Douluo in the future!" Rong Rong tried to fight back.
"Humph! You think becoming a Titled Douluo is as easy as picking an apple from a tree? What once in a lifetime genius, he is probably only a little faster than you!"
Ning Fengzhi was raging inside as he berated his daughter, "If you were a Power Attack System, you would be much further ahead in your cultivation."
Ning Fengzhi's rage was reaching the heavens, yet this wasn't a battle that Rong Rong could cower away from.
She knew that she would have to pull out all her trump cards in order to gain the approval of her father, and she started with the most important, talent.
"That would mean nothing in front of Brother Wulin! He is already a Spirit King, and he is just thirteen years old!" Rong Rong retorted with power.
The standing Sword Douluo and the sitting Bone Douluo both jumped up in sheer fright as they exclaimed, "What!!"
They couldn't believe what they heard, reaching Spirit King at 13 years of age. Even the world-renowned number one genius Tang Hao didn't come anywhere near that kind of cultivation speed.
Chen Xin and Gu Rong didn't dare to believe it. Their old bodies were shaking, but they didn't know if it was from fright or excitement.
"Rong Rong, are you sure that is true? Perhaps he only looks young, and is actually much older than he appears to be?" Chen Xin asked carefully.
Rong Rong nodded her head in certainty, "Of course, I am sure! Shrek Academy only allows those 12 and under to enrol in the academy. Brother Wulin enrolled in the same year as me, the teachers check our bone growth to determine age."
Ning Fengzhi was standing to the side in astonishment, 'A Spirit King at 13 years old, this can't even be considered a monster. This is the god of all monsters!'
Ning Fengzhi was still mad that his daughter was defiled, but if he can play things out correctly, they will have another Titled Douluo in the Clan.
He knew that Chen Xin and Gu Rong won't be able to live forever, meaning that there would be nobody to protect Rong Rong when they depart.
Pushing this thought to the back of his mind, he decided to gather more information about him first as he returned to his angry state.
"You still hid this from me, how are you even sure that he really likes you? Just a couple sweet words and you give yourself to him, I don't remember raising you like this?"
Knowing him for so long, how could Rong Rong not notice that Ning Fengzhi changed his tune and was no longer as infuriated as before.
"Of course, he loves me, he has already given me a marriage ring!" She extended her left hand as she flashed the flower shaped ring on her finger.
Ning Fengzhi's eyes twitched in irritation, as expected, he still doesn't like the guy.
While thinking he should at least punish him a bit, he replied to Rong Rong, "So what if he gives you a ring? I will personally come and see him, if he is not up to my satisfaction, don't blame me for ending your relationship."
Rong Rong thought about her father meeting her husband, and the group of girls that will be surrounding him.
'I don't know how daddy will feel about me being in a harem… but we won't be able to hide it forever.' She sighed and decided to leave it to fate.
Ning Fengzhi knew that his daughter was not stupid and easily tricked, so the man she chose is probably one of his word and won't abandon her.
But he felt their relationship had progressed too far and that the talent might get bored of her too soon, "You should stay in the clan for now, I will deal with this at a later time."
"What! No, I can't stay here! I still need to compete in the Continental Tournament." Rong Rong instantly rejected that idea.
However, Ning Fengzhi didn't want to give in, "Didn't you say everyone else is stronger than you? That Blue Tyrant Academy only has one seeding for the Continental Tournament, when will it be your turn to fight?"
"We will figure something out! Even if we have to secretly take out one academy before the tournament and pose as them." Rong Rong's she-devil nature came out as she spoke insidiously.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, "Then that's even more reason I can't let you compete, you won't be able to hide your Spirit, so everyone will know that you are from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Are you trying to destroy our reputation?"
Frustrated by her father's insistence to keep her here, she no longer argued with him and instead ran over to her two grandpas.
"Grandpa Bone, you said that you would back me up earlier. Tell daddy that he can't keep me here! You promised to help me, if you don't do it, I won't love you anymore!"
Rong Rong jumped into the lap of the Bone Douluo who was sitting down and used all her coquettish actions on him.
The old man, having basically raised Rong Rong, had a fair amount of resistance to her charm as he chuckled, "Rong Rong, you don't want to stay home with Grandpa anymore? The little fairy has already flown away from home."
Rong Rong blushed as she understood the hidden meaning in his final words, pouting, she said, "Grandpa Bone, you are bullying me!"
She jumped out of his lap and ran to the white-haired old man, clinging onto his arm.
"Grandpa Sword, you will help me, right? You said that you liked me more than Grandpa Bone before?" Rong Rong said with puppy dog eyes.
"Bullshit! Obviously, I like you more!" The Bone Douluo instantly stood up as he argued.
The Sword Douluo smiled calmly, "Of course I like you more, that old coot is already senile, probably forgetting who you are."
"You bastard, you are even older than me! You are the senile old man!" The Bone Douluo stood upright as he glared at the smaller Sword Douluo.
Rong Rong, not giving them a chance to further their argument, asked, "Then, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, you will help me convince daddy?"
Both of them nodded their heads, turning to Ning Fengzhi, "Fengzhi, she will go back to her academy!"
Their tones held complete authority, giving Ning Fengzhi no chance to talk back.
Ning Fengzhi felt awkward in front of these two elders while Rong Rong smiled victoriously.
He couldn't afford to offend these two elders since they were the protectors of the clan and held more power than himself.
Rong Rong smiled naughtily as she said, "Serves you right, daddy! You see me after an entire year and didn't even bring me presents!"
"Who said I didn't bring you any presents? Of course, I brought you presents. But did you bring daddy any presents? It is not fair that only I give you presents?" He replied.
Hearing that her father brought presents, Rong Rong's eyes lit up as she quickly tried to think of something she can give in exchange.
'Hmm, I only have pretty clothes and jewellery in my spatial item, I couldn't give those to daddy… Ah! This is a perfect time to give them all a surprise!'
Smiling mysteriously, Rong Rong said, "Daddy, I also have a present for you!"
Ning Fengzhi was curious as he said, "Then, how about you show me your present first, then I will give you the presents I prepared."
Rong Rong thought about it before nodding, "You can't go back on your words!"
Whilst speaking, Rong Rong raised her hand as multiple rays of light began to coalesce in her palm.
A dazzlingly bright glass pagoda floated on top of her palm, three Spirit Rings, two yellow and one purple, revolved around the pagoda.
Ning Fengzhi looked at the pagoda and was slightly confused, 'She only summoned her Spirit, is this meant to be the present?'
He felt like something was different, and just as he was about to take a closer look, the white dressed old man cried out.
"Nine layers and nine colours! Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!?"
"What!?" Ning Fengzhi yelled in alarm. Taking a closer look at the pagoda in Rong Rong's hand, he noticed that it had two extra layers in the pagoda and there were two more colours than his Spirit.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is unable to obtain an eighth Spirit Ring, which is why it is called Seven Treasures.
Ning Fengzhi and the two old men stared at the brightly shining Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in Rong Rong's hand, not knowing what to say.
Rong Rong withdrew her Spirit as she stared at her father, "You won't go back on your word, right? Hurry and hand the present over!"
Ning Fengzhi quickly appeared in front of Rong Rong and tried to grab her shoulders, but when he came near, she smoothly dodged out of the way like a ghost.
Ning Fengzhi didn't have the time to be shocked as he quickly asked, "Rong Rong, quickly tell me. How did your spirit evolve like this?"
The two elders were watching Rong Rong closely and saw how easily she dodged Ning Fengzhi's grab. Their eyes opened wide as they wondered what Shrek Academy had been teaching their students.
"It happened when I ate the Beautiful Silk Tulip. I was the only one lucky enough to go through a secondary awakening!" Rong Rong smugly said as she puffed her growing chest out.
Ning Fengzhi was surprised that the cause was this 'Beautiful Silk Tulip' again. He didn't know what kind of treasure it was, but it was definitely worthy of being called an Immortal Treasure.
Seeing him distracted by his own thoughts, Rong Rong glared at him as she urged, "I already showed you your present, so give me mine!"
He reached into his chest pocket and pulled out the Powder Shooting Shadow and Silent Sleeve Dart, before handing them over to Rong Rong.
"I bought these from the auction house earlier today. Although the power is not great, it will still be able to give you a certain protection." Ning Fengzhi started, however, seeing the strange expression on Rong Rong's face, he stopped.
"Rong Rong, why do you have such a strange expression on your face?" He asked.
"From the looks of this Powder Shooting Shadow and Silent Sleeve Dart, it should be made by third brother. Daddy, how did you get third brothers hidden weapons?" Rong Rong inspected the weapons closely.
"These are made by your third brother?" Ning Fengzhi questioned, he thought back to the ordinary looking youth.
"Right, these hidden weapons are designed by third brother. These two are just the most common ones, I am wearing a couple more that are even more powerful, though these are made by Brother Wulin." Rong Rong nodded her head.
"I came back this time for another purpose of preparing to ask daddy if we can equip our directly related clansmen with these hidden weapons." She added.
Ning Fengzhi immediately began calculating as he seriously said, "What kind of genius must he be, to create weapons like these while cultivating such strength."
"Rong Rong, is there a big difference between your third brother and your Brother Wulin making the weapons?" He asked.
Rong Rong nodded her head, "Brother Wulin has special forging methods, so his products are even higher quality than third brother's."
The white dressed old man thought about it and said, "Then, could your Brother Wulin make hidden weapons for us?"
Ning Fengzhi had also wanted to ask this question. However, he couldn't ask Rong Rong since he felt awkward.
"No, Brother Wulin said that he would only make things for our group. You will have to make the deal with third brother to equip our clansmen." Rong Rong said.
Ning Fengzhi felt disappointed but knew from the quality of the hidden weapons he bought from auction that getting Tang San to create them wouldn't be a waste.
"Let's go and let me see those hidden weapons you brought back. If they are good enough, maybe I can strike a deal with that third brother."
****
"These hidden weapons are really unexpected. Rong Rong, don't speak of this matter to anyone. Tomorrow, I'll follow you to Shrek Academy and properly settle this deal with your third brother."
Ning Fengzhi was still in shock as he recalled the power and potential of the hidden weapons his daughter brought home.
He could also tell that she trained in special methods to control the Hidden Weapons to such a degree, not to mention her naughty personality making it easy to catch people off guard.
He asked Rong Rong about the techniques she used, but no matter how he tried to coerce her, she wouldn't say a word about it.
In the end, he gave up trying to get the techniques from her and just settled for the weapons, most of them can be utilised well enough if you have good control of your body.
Rong Rong nodded her head as she happily dragged her two Grandpas away, wanting to tell them all about her time at Shrek Academy.
Ning Fengzhi just watched them leave before turning around so nobody can see him.
'Not only will I settle things with your third brother, but I will 'settle' things with this Brother Wulin of yours… How dare he steal my Rong Rong!'
Ning Fengzhi's face was grim as he remembered that his little princess is no longer a virgin.
Even if he accepts the partner of her choice, as a father, he can't just let thing's go without a fight, he needs to make sure that the boy will stay with Rong Rong forever.

*Author's Notes*
Sorry for being kind of silent this time, been busy with work and life.
The inspectors came to my house and said that the water might have seeped into the tiles, so they will have to tear all that up as well.
I had to leave my house and go stay with one of my Sister's boyfriends friend, because I have no friends.
So, my house is basically out of commission for a couple months to half a year...
On the other hand, uni is going to be starting this week, so we will see how that goes, I am only doing an IT Bachelor and everyone says how easy it is, hopefully I won't be too tired to write.
Good news as well, my half brother gave me his car, so I can get to and from uni/work at my leisure, instead of wasting like an hour and a half each way for the bus.
.
I decided that the next book that I want to write is the class reincarnation one, so I will write that in my spare time when I get a writers block on this, which shouldn't happen too often since I am basically just editing a premade script with my own elements.
