Chapter 156 Liu Erlong's Martial Soul Evolution_1
"Your Highness, I want to follow you."
Ning Rongrong pitifully clutched Qin Xiao's sleeve and wouldn't let go.
"This is such trouble..."
Qin Xiao sighed inwardly, but since he had indeed promised Ning Fengzhi before, he ultimately nodded, "Alright then."
"Yay!"
The girl's face immediately burst into a joyful smile, her eyes curving into beautiful crescent shapes.
Qin Xiao said fiercely, "Don't get too happy too soon, I'll say it straight, after we leave here, everything will be done according to my say. Otherwise, I'll just leave you on the road."
"Mhm, mhm." Ning Rongrong nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, I'll definitely obey. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west, if you tell me to hit a dog, I'll never chase a chicken. I wouldn't even frown if you wanted me to warm the bed."
She spoke earnestly.
Qin Xiao was nodding along at first, but at the last part, he shook his head, "Isn't asking you to warm the bed taking advantage of you?"
Ning Rongrong: "...."
The expressions of Sword Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, and Bone Douluo also changed.
"Qin Xiao, I don't like hearing that kind of talk," Sword Douluo said angrily, puffing up his moustache and glaring.
"I don't like hearing it either..." Bone Douluo also joined in.
However.
Before Qin Xiao could say anything, Ning Rongrong straightened her small face, "Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, you can't treat Qin Xiao that way, I think he's right... after all, feelings need to be cultivated..."
Following Ning Rongrong's words, the room suddenly fell quiet.
They say that once a daughter is married off, she's like water that's been splashed out.
But it wasn't even happening yet, and she's already turning her elbow out?
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo felt their hearts ache.
Seeing this, Qin Xiao cracked a slight smile.
It was quite amusing to see the two looking so deflated.
"By the way, Rongrong, do you have anything else to pack?"
"No!"
Ning Rongrong's answer was straightforward, "Everything is here."
As she said this, she took out a black card filled with zeros and waved it in front of Qin Xiao.
"Since you are ready, then I shall take my leave," Qin Xiao said and bowed to everyone with his hands clasped.
Ning Rongrong also became serious, "Sect Master Ning, Senior Sword, Senior Bone, until we meet again."
Everyone: "...."
She really started treating herself as an outsider.
...
Some time later.
Qin Xiao brought Ning Rongrong to the Icefire Polarized Eyes.
"Wow, this place is so magical."
Ning Rongrong's eyes brimmed with excitement.
She looked around east and west, curious about all the plants in the surroundings.
As she looked, her hands began to fidget, reaching out to touch a fresh red and delicate flower.
"You really shouldn't touch that."
Just as her hand was about to make contact with the flower, Qin Xiao stopped her.
"Why can't I touch it?"
"Just touching it won't get you pregnant, stingy."
Ning Rongrong pouted and muttered softly.
What would happen if you touched it? Qin Xiao suddenly laughed, "This thing is highly poisonous. If you touch it, after five steps, you'll turn into a puddle of pus and blood."
"Really?"
"You can try."
"Trying is... never mind, I'd better not." Ning Rongrong's attitude had been very firm a moment ago, but she quickly chickened out.
Better to be alive and well than to court death, right?
"Your Highness, you're back?"
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing came from afar, her face showing delight.
"I'm back, Zhu Qing. You go and tell Yiran and Dugu Yan first, then everyone prepare. I'm going to take you all somewhere."
"Okay."
Zhu Zhuqing, the frosty beauty with an icy demeanor, never rejected Qin Xiao's requests.
"Wait, Ning Rongrong, you go prepare with Zhu Qing too."
"I..."
Ning Rongrong wanted to say she wanted to follow him.
But upon catching Qin Xiao's half-smiling expression, she quickly caught on.
No way.
She absolutely could not give Qin Xiao a reason to leave her behind.
...
It didn't take long for Qin Xiao to arrive in front of Du Gu Bo.
"So, did you find the person with the Snake Spear?"
asked Du Gu Bo.
Qin Xiao nodded. "I did."
Du Gu Bo asked anxiously, "Is his injury serious?"
"Serious. The Green Kirin Snake Poison has penetrated deep into the marrow. He could die at any moment."
"Hahaha, it seems I am still superior after all. Let's see who dares to mock me now, calling me the disgrace among Titled Douluo, only capable of flaunting power over those below Titled Douluo Level."
Du Gu Bo laughed heartily.
From his words, Qin Xiao heard a sense of exultation.
But, at the next moment, Du Gu Bo's laughter came to an abrupt halt. "Eh, that's not right. You said the other party's life is in danger?"
Qin Xiao answered, "Indeed."
"That means you didn't kill that Snakelance Douluo?"
Looking at Qin Xiao, Du Gu Bo clicked his tongue in wonder, "That's not like you. Your enemies generally end up crushed to ashes. How could you possibly leave a survivor?"
"Could it be that you've done too many wrongdoings and experienced sudden enlightenment, so now you've decided not to kill and accumulate some virtue for yourself?"
"Get lost."
Qin Xiao's face instantly darkened. This old rascal Du Gu Bo was still as shameless as ever...
"Do you know the purpose of the Snakelance Douluo?" Qin Xiao asked Du Gu Bo.
"Of course!" Du Gu Bo replied without hesitation: "He wanted Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran. I didn't agree, and we fought a life-and-death battle. You know all this, right?"
"Indeed, that's the case..."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, then added, "But he was also acting on someone else's suggestion, to take Zhu Qing and Yiran away and protect them. He even thought that you were plotting against Zhu Qing and Yiran..."
"What the hell?"
Upon hearing this, Du Gu Bo could no longer lay still, sitting up in shock, "Are you saying that the guy who fought me to a draw is one of our own? Someone who's aiding you?"
