Ning Fengzhi glanced at Chen Xin and sighed, "Yes, something did happen when we went to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect!"
He then proceeded to recount the specific encounters...
After hearing this, Chen Xin couldn't help but gasp, "So that's how it is, I didn't expect that when you went to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, you would actually encounter an attack from abyssal creatures!"
"So it seems, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect might have already been..."
According to Uncle Bone, each abyssal creature had strength comparable to a Titled Douluo. With so many terrifying beings attacking the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, it was feared... no one could stop them!
Even if Yu Yuanzhen was there!
Seeing the former's words getting more slanted, Gu Rong couldn't help but roll his eyes and reminded him, "Where exactly are you going with this? If the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect really was destroyed by those abyssal creatures, do you think I alone could protect Feng Zhi and the others upon their return?"
Initially, an abyssal creature comparable to a Titled Douluo had almost killed him!
Facing so many at the same time, he did not have the strength!
Chen Xin was stunned for a moment before rebuking, "Uncle Bone, can't you stop beating around the bush? What exactly happened?"
Gu Rong pursed his lips, quite annoyed, "Tch, is that the tone to ask someone? Then guess yourself!"
Xue Qinghe looked at them and suddenly interjected, "Sword Douluo, the situation is not as you imagine. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect was not destroyed by abyssal creatures!"
"Because their strength is not all that strong; most are only comparable to human Soul Masters—Soul Kings, Soul Ancestors!"
Hearing this, Chen Xin suddenly showed a look of sudden enlightenment...
It seemed he had been a bit alarmist. If all abyssal creatures were as strong as Titled Douluos, mankind would probably have been annihilated long ago!
Thinking of this, he glared at Gu Rong and then nodded, indicating, "Crown Prince, thank you!"
However, he soon shuddered Violently and turned his gaze toward Ning Fengzhi...
He immediately used spiritual power to communicate, "Feng Zhi, what's the situation? Why does Xue Qinghe know about the abyssal creatures?"
Wasn't it said that only the people of the upper three families knew?
Ning Fengzhi slightly smiled and also responded with spiritual power, "Uncle Sword, it's an unavoidable matter. Qing He was also present at that time, and we couldn't hide the matter of the abyssal creatures, but don't worry, I understand this child; he won't spread the word!"
Regarding Xue Qinghe, he was very trustworthy!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed him connections between the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect and the imperial household!
Chen Xin pursed his lips, "Although he is your disciple, he is ultimately a person of the royal household and cannot be fully trusted!"
Ning Fengzhi's attitude remained unchanged, "Don't worry, Uncle Sword, I have a grasp of the situation!"
Watching the two suddenly become silent yet their eyes meeting...
Xue Qinghe secretly thought, "Hm? Was Sword Douluo just using spiritual communication with Ning Fengzhi?"
Though he couldn't sense it with his own powers, he could discern it from their every move!
Chen Xin came back to his senses, expressionless, "Since the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect has not been destroyed by the Abyssal Creature Army, that is naturally good!"
"However... Feng Zhi, the risk involved in this trip was still too great. If something happens to you and the Crown Prince, the consequences would be unthinkable!"
"So, the next time you leave the sect, I should accompany you!"
Hearing the sarcasm in these words, Gu Rong also did not mince his words in questioning, "Old Man Jian, what exactly are you implying with your words, saying I can't protect Feng Zhi and the others properly?"
Chen Xin shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be innocent, "Hmph, I didn't say it; you said it yourself!"
Gu Rong clenched his fist, "You, you're looking for a fight, aren't you?"
Chen Xin also showed no fear and directly released his Martial Soul, the Seven Kill Sword…
He gripped it and aimed at the former, "Let's fight then, who is afraid, don't forget, every battle has you defeated time and time again!"
Neither side backed down, and a fight was imminent...
As the Sect Master, Ning Fengzhi, feeling somewhat embarrassed, covered his forehead and forced a smile, "Qing He, you must find this amusing. Uncle Sword and Uncle Bone occasionally behave like this, don't take it too seriously!"
Xue Qinghe immediately clasped his fists, "Yes, teacher, if I'm not mistaken, it seems like Uncle Bone Douluo and Uncle Sword Douluo are engaged in a love-hate relationship!"
Ning Fengzhi was stunned, somewhat surprised by the remark, "Well... that's one way to put it, but their friendship is indeed very deep!"
"That is precisely why the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect can be called one of the upper three families!"
Then, he took a deep breath, "Enough, Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, Qing He is still here, do you want outsiders to laugh at us?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xin and Gu Rong both calmed down, but their gazes still fiercely clashed...
Ning Fengzhi sighed, "Stop quarreling, with this energy, better think about what to do next!"
...
Naturally, as he was not a member of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, Xue Qinghe was arranged to rest elsewhere within the sect...
He glanced at a distance, his expression solemn, "It seems, though I have become Ning Fengzhi's disciple, I still haven't earned his complete trust."
Although the other party had sincerely taught him, he always felt that some things were still being concealed!
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open...
"Crown Prince, are you in there?"
Xue Qinghe gathered his previous expressions and looked at Ning Rongrong who walked in, smilingly replied, "Rong... Rongrong, did you need something from me?"
Didn't Ning Rongrong dislike him?
What was this sudden intrusion all about?
Ning Rongrong made no effort to hide the disdain on her face, "Nothing much, just some things I wanted to ask you!"
Xue Qinghe was indeed remarkable compared to his peers, but compared to Xu Sheng, he fell short!
Xue Qinghe found it not surprising, but still patiently responded, "Oh? What would you like to ask, Rongrong? Is it about the incidents that occurred along the way?"
Ning Rongrong pouted, "I am not interested in those things at all, actually, I came to ask you about Xu Sheng this time!"
Otherwise, why would she bother interacting with him?
No, she wouldn't even want to see him!
Xue Qinghe's expression stiffened, his gaze growing slightly colder...
"About Xu Sheng? Rongrong, what do you mean by that?"
Ning Rongrong fidgeted a little, her cheeks flushing...
"I heard from father that before Xu Sheng joined the Martial Soul Hall, he had visited the imperial palace and was very close to you!"
"So, you should know what he likes, right? Like... um, his favorite food, his likes..."
