章節 214: Chapter 214: Xiao Wu Takes the Blame for No Reason
Ahem, when Su Ming said he was going into seclusion to "improve," it was actually just to learn something new. Saying "improve" sounded better, but in truth, he was just learning how to make more advanced talismans. Currently, in the training space, he could already create level-three talismans, and he planned to spend a few days in seclusion to see if he could break through to level four.
Soon, the day passed, and Su Ming didn't write in his diary—a rare occurrence. For him, focusing on learning how to make talismans was more important right now. The rewards from the diary weren't as appealing anymore since he didn't feel like he was lacking anything significant at the moment.
System: ... The female leads: Oh, so you're above it all now, huh? You think you're so special?
All the female leads had waited for a long time, but Su Ming never wrote his diary! Without him writing, they couldn't receive any rewards, not even the minimum soul power they would normally get.
Now, they were all frustrated, thinking that Su Ming was probably spending more time with Xiao Wu again, leaving them without their rewards!
Being bound by the system, the female leads couldn't actively seek out Su Ming and had to wait for him to appear. Now, they couldn't even count on their basic rewards, and it made them even more upset.
Xiao Wu: "This is unfair! This time it really wasn't me! I'm being wrongly accused!"
Even Zhu Zhuqing gave Xiao Wu a confused look. Xiao Wu had been with them the entire time, so why hadn't Su Ming written anything?
Xiao Wu explained, "Maybe it's because Su Ming is in seclusion. He told me after lunch that he was going into seclusion for a while."
"I think he'll be in seclusion until the end of the break. And as for food and clothing, Su Ming has plenty of resources stored up…"
Zhu Zhuqing thought for a moment and agreed that this made sense. But still, why did Su Ming suddenly decide to go into seclusion? His current strength...
Zhu Zhuqing asked, "Xiao Wu, did Su Ming tell you why he's going into seclusion?"
"Yes. Zhuqing, do you remember talismans? Su Ming plans to use his seclusion to improve his talisman-making skills. I'm not sure what level of talismans he can make now, though."
Xiao Wu's curiosity was piqued as well. After all, talismans were incredibly versatile, and if Su Ming could mass-produce them, it would be incredibly convenient!
Zhu Zhuqing nodded thoughtfully. "Since Su Ming is working so hard, we shouldn't slack off either. Let's use these next few days to train as well."
Xiao Wu nodded firmly. If Su Ming, even with the system, was working so hard, then they couldn't afford to be lazy either! After all, their fates had already changed for the better, thanks to Su Ming.
Later that afternoon, Ning Rongrong finally returned to her sect. She had rushed back as quickly as possible, having relied on flying spirit masters to carry her while she used her martial spirit to assist them, which allowed her to return so quickly.
She had only stopped to rest in towns during the night, eating dry food on the go, afraid that she wouldn't make it in time. Even so, it had taken her almost a day and a half to return, and she was exhausted.
Calculating the time, this was the third day of the holiday, leaving her four more days. For her return trip, she could ask Grandpa Sword or Grandpa Bone to escort her. If they hurried, the journey wouldn't take too long.
In the grand hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect:
"Father, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, I'm back! Did you miss me?" Ning Rongrong's cheerful voice rang out from afar.
Even though she was exhausted, she was overjoyed to see her family again after being away for so long.
The three men in the hall exchanged surprised glances. Why had Rongrong suddenly returned? And why hadn't the guards they sent to protect her reported anything in advance?
What they didn't know was that it wasn't that the guards didn't want to report—Rongrong had just traveled so fast that they couldn't keep up!
Ning Rongrong would activate her martial spirit to speed up the flying spirit masters as soon as she had spirit power, leaving them trailing behind her.
Flying Spirit Masters: "We're going to die! This is too much!"
Had Ning Rongrong not been the heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they might have complained. After all, they weren't part of the sect's main family. However, this was also a great opportunity—if they performed well, they might earn a promotion.
They were also very curious about why the young lady was in such a rush to return.
When they finally reached the sect, Ning Rongrong promised to reward them generously for their efforts. After all, they had worked hard over the past day and a half, and she knew they deserved some recognition.
In the grand hall:
Bone Douluo, surprised, looked at Sword Douluo and said, "Sword Man, am I hearing things? Did I just hear Rongrong's voice? I must be missing her too much since she's been away for so long."
Sword Douluo rolled his eyes at Bone Douluo but didn't argue because he had heard the voice too!
Ning Fengzhi added, "Alright, Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, you didn't mishear it. I heard her too. It seems Rongrong has returned."
"But it's strange—I haven't received any notification."
Gu Rong cheerfully responded, "Who cares? It's great that Rongrong is back! You don't know how much I've missed her while she's been away. This is the first time she's been gone for so long!"
Before Ning Fengzhi or Sword Douluo could respond, Gu Rong used his spatial abilities to teleport away.
Sword Douluo, irritated, exclaimed, "That old geezer! How dare he run off ahead of me when I want to see Rongrong too!"
With that, Sword Douluo summoned his Seven Killing Sword and swiftly flew after Gu Rong.
Ning Fengzhi, shaking his head with a smile, noted that the two elders still doted on Rongrong just as much as ever. Since they could hear her voice, it was clear she was already outside the hall.
Still, Ning Fengzhi found it strange that the guards hadn't reported anything. Could it be that Rongrong had returned so quickly that she outran them?
If so, it meant that her reason for returning wasn't just to visit. Ning Fengzhi had a feeling this might have something to do with Su Ming.
After all, the last time Rongrong had spoken about going to Shrek Academy, it had been related to Su Ming. Though she accidentally let it slip, she refused to reveal any details afterward. This piqued Ning Fengzhi's curiosity even more.
Moreover, Bone Douluo had met Su Ming during a visit to Shrek and mentioned that Su Ming's talent, strength, and appearance were exceptional. If Rongrong was interested in him, Ning Fengzhi considered Su Ming a perfect candidate for her future husband.
