Chapter 63: Rong Rong, Call Him Master Uncle

"I'm back, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone!" Upon entering the inner hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Rongrong immediately regained her liveliness and called out to the two elders sitting in chairs.

However, this time, Chen Xin surprisingly didn't respond immediately to Ning Rongrong.

His gaze shifted towards Su Cheng, who had come along with Ning Fengzhi, and there was a momentary flicker in his eyes.

In Chen Xin's dream, there weren't many memories left, only two scenes were exceptionally clear.

One was the time when Su Cheng learned swordsmanship from him during his childhood.

Although Su Cheng's aptitude was mediocre, he was extremely diligent, persistently practicing swordsmanship day after day without wavering.

The other memory was of thirty years later when this adopted son died in his arms.

Also passing away at that time were the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall, Bibi Dong, and the Martial Soul Hall's Young Mistress, Qian Renxue. His adopted son almost single-handedly destroyed the entire Martial Soul Hall.

But even so, he still found the face of the young man before him strangely familiar.

Chen Xin was devoted to the way of the sword, single-mindedly focused on it his whole life, never marrying or having children.

The adopted son in his dream was no different from his own biological son, making it unforgettable for him.

With Chen Xin's cultivation realm, the concept of sleep and dreaming almost didn't exist for him.

He felt this was a kind of omen from the heavens.

Later, when he recalled it, he discussed it with Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi.

However, after several years, they didn't uncover any related information. The Seven Treasure Glazed Sect didn't have intelligence systems like the Martial Soul Hall or the Empire, so they had no choice but to let it go.

Ning Fengzhi observed Chen Xin's expression and, noticing his demeanor, understood that he had probably found the right person.

"Master Sword, Master Bone, let me introduce you." He walked to the table and poured tea for Su Cheng and himself, smiling, "It's quite a coincidence. Today, I took Rong Rong to visit the Royal Academy and happened to meet this young man, Su, who is planning to enroll there."

He gestured towards Su Cheng and continued, "He's a genius with a sword martial soul and wanted to invite Master Sword to meet him."

After speaking, he subtly gestured towards Chen Xin.

Su Cheng nodded and revealed his Eternal Sword.

Seeing the one yellow, and two purple, both Titled Douluo were somewhat surprised and looked at Ning Fengzhi with questioning eyes.

Ning Fengzhi, seeing their expressions, explained the events that had happened in the academy.

After listening, Chen Xin felt both moved and puzzled.

He wasn't surprised about Su Cheng creating his own soul technique. Although his adopted son had mediocre aptitude, he was always full of ingenious ideas.

But what was strange was that Su Cheng's sword martial soul was obviously of extremely high quality, and judging by instinct, it seemed to be even better than his Seven Kill Sword.

He opened his mouth to say something but swallowed his words.

Instead, he asked, "Child, are you willing to be my disciple?"

Su Cheng was somewhat surprised.

He had spent a long time with Chen Xin in the simulated world and understood him to some extent.

Unlike Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin wasn't the type to be eager to make friends with a genius soul master, let alone accept him as a disciple.

But now it seemed he didn't have much time to think about it.

This was a good opportunity, and everything he had shown earlier was to increase his background and connections for this moment.

And now, it seemed that the effect was even better than expected.

Su Cheng quickly stood up and offered tea, bowing to Chen Xin, "Master, this is my honor."

On the side, Gu Rong scrutinized the two with a critical eye and suddenly realized something. Smiling, he looked at Ning Rongrong, "Rong Rong, why don't you call him Master Uncle."

His words carried a teasing tone.

Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi also reacted immediately and looked at the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, their faces showing a sly smile.

Su Cheng's eyes twitched inwardly, feeling that something wasn't right.

Ning Rongrong looked at the elders in front of her in surprise, feeling a bit aggrieved.

In fact, when she first met Su Cheng, she had an instinctive fondness for him.

Later, when she learned that he had been practicing alone all this time, she admired and sympathized with him even more.

But Su Cheng shouldn't have mentioned the rules of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect.

She always took pride in her background, and even though she later found Su Cheng to be exceptional, with her personality, she wouldn't back down.

And today, when she returned, her usual spotlight was stolen by someone else.

Upon hearing Gu Rong's words, she couldn't suppress her emotions and protested loudly, "I don't want to!"

Seeing her strong reaction, Gu Rong, who had originally spoken, was taken aback.

Su Cheng, seeing Ning Rongrong's reluctant expression, quickly said, "Master, Elder Bone, Lord Ning, there's no need for titles like Master Uncle or anything like that. It's better for us to address each other as equals."

Chen Xin, who saw this, was about to say something else, but Ning Fengzhi's expression changed slightly, and he intervened, "Then why don't you address each other as siblings?"

Seeing Ning Rongrong still hesitating, he urged her with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Ning Rongrong reluctantly called out "Brother" in a low voice.

Su Cheng felt helpless, but he also understood that this was probably Ning Fengzhi's way of bringing them closer. He nodded and agreed.

Seeing the relationship between the two confirmed, Ning Fengzhi felt satisfied and resumed his seat.

He led the conversation, quickly building a rapport between Su Cheng and the others.

During this time, he didn't inquire about Su Cheng's self-created soul technique.

With his smooth and diplomatic style, he knew it wasn't the right time yet. Bringing it up hastily could tarnish the good impression and make it seem like the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect had ulterior motives.

Instead, he focused on Su Cheng's well-being, asking about his experiences over the past few years.

Su Cheng had nothing to hide, and his whereabouts over the years had been clean. He had mainly focused on cultivation and sword practice, so there was nothing significant to conceal.

As he recounted his experiences over the years, Su Cheng also pondered silently.

The next step was to find a way to involve the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect.

At the very least, it would provide him with a concrete guarantee he could use to intimidate others.

Currently, he and Chen Xin were only nominally master and disciple. While it was enough to deter others, it might not be sufficient if he were to face off against Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe.

However, Su Cheng had already figured out what to do on his way here.

He needed a mascot that could represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, someone who could often appear with him.

Ning Rongrong was the best candidate.
