Chapter 2 Meeting Ning Fengzhi, The Game
"Good, now you will test your innate soul power."
Gu Rong's words snapped Li Jiuyou out of his reverie. He immediately stepped forward and placed his hand on the crystal ball used to test soul power.
The next moment, dazzling light filled the entire crystal ball.
The meaning of this is self-evident: Li Jiuyou has awakened the most powerful innate full soul power, recognized by the soul master world.
He himself was not happy.
Because he knew that in the Douluo Continent, soul power and internal energy were actually the same thing.
Tang San was unharmed because he had cultivated the Xuan Tian Gong since childhood, and the Xuan Tian Gong's attributes were relatively neutral. But I am different!
The cultivation technique that Li Jiuyou just obtained is the extremely yang and powerful Tiangang Technique.
If one were to cultivate the Heavenly Gang Technique using their current soul power as a foundation, it's hard to guarantee that their body wouldn't develop hidden ailments, and their future potential would be lowered.
He would never give up cultivating the Heavenly Gang Technique.
I can only acquire the soul ring later. Before acquiring the soul ring, I will try my best to transform my soul power attribute into supreme yang.
After thinking about it, Li Jiuyou realized that his idea was not difficult to implement.
Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, there is a young lady with innate soul power at level nine; perhaps we could make use of her.
With his innate talent of full soul power, this is not difficult to do.
As Li Jiuyou expected, Gu Rong immediately spoke:
"Your innate full soul power... your talent is excellent. I will now take you to see the sect master."
Hearing Gu Rong's words, Li Jiuyou nodded.
As for the two people who came with him but had not yet awakened their martial souls, Li Jiuyou said he was not familiar with them... in fact, he was not familiar with them to begin with.
Not to mention them, Li Jiuyou was not familiar with even the ancient banyan tree in front of him or anyone else he would meet in this world in the future.
Gu Rong wouldn't bother with the two children anymore. He was too lazy to say anything and simply left with Li Jiuyou.
The backyard of the residence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's sect leader.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi is playing with his daughter Ning Rongrong. Because of her great talent, Ning Fengzhi is very satisfied with her and is willing to spend more time with her as a father.
Chen Xin, who was sitting there seemingly focused on wiping the sword, kept glancing at Ning Rongrong from time to time.
The next moment, a spatial rift appeared, and Gu Rong led Li Jiuyou out from it.
Upon seeing this, Ning Fengzhi immediately stopped teasing his daughter. Ning Rongrong also stood beside Ning Fengzhi, curiously observing Gu Rong and Li Jiuyou.
"Uncle Gu, what's wrong with you...?"
"The person in the shadows has good talent."
With just this one sentence, Ning Fengzhi understood the meaning of the ancient banyan tree.
He immediately put on his signature smile, walked towards Li Jiuyou, reached out and patted his head, saying, "I am Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. What is your name?"
"Greetings, Sect Master. My name is Li Jiuyou."
Li Jiuyou was a little uncomfortable being patted on the head and seemed unnatural.
Ning Fengzhi noticed Li Jiuyou's expression. It seemed this approach wouldn't work... He quickly recalled which children of suitable age Shadow had over the years.
Finally, he remembered that Gu Rong had mentioned it to him before.
Rumor has it that a small family in Hanhai City has discovered some secret, and Li Jiuyou's parents have been sent to infiltrate it.
The secret remains unsolved, as it is still under investigation. Meanwhile, Li Jiuyou's parents need to be impersonated, during which time they had a child, and later, for some reason, their identities were exposed…
In that environment, Li Jiuyou received very little care and attention.
For a child who has not received much parental love since childhood and has been in danger, the approach needs to be changed.
"So, Little Jiuyou, do you want to stay in the Shadow or follow Uncle Ning?"
Li Jiuyou was somewhat surprised. Why didn't they start by questioning his martial spirit and soul power?
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Ning Fengzhi absolutely trusts Gu Rong, so asking about the martial soul is pointless; it definitely can't be weak.
How should I answer?
Li Jiuyou quickly began to think.
What I need now is resources, time, and sufficient security.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can satisfy their needs, but what they need is your surrender. However, surrender can only satisfy two things, and they will still quickly take you to obtain a soul ring.
Besides, he couldn't possibly be genuinely surrendering.
Li Jiuyou dared not gamble on whether Ning Fengzhi would test his loyalty in some way.
There's no doubt that this will definitely be tested.
So he had to come up with a way to make Ning Fengzhi feel that even if he wasn't loyal to the sect, he would still be willing to invest in him. The target didn't have to be the sect; it could be something else entirely.
Li Jiuyou did not answer Ning Fengzhi's question. Instead, he used his height advantage as a child to look down at Ning Rongrong next to Ning Fengzhi. Their eyes met briefly, then looked away again, and he continued to look at her from the side.
"child……"
Ning Fengzhi was puzzled as to why Li Jiuyou wasn't answering his question, but he understood the next moment.
He glanced at Li Jiuyou, then at his daughter…
I see……
However, if that's the case, we'll have to take a good look at this child's talent.
"Tell Uncle Ning about your martial spirit and soul power, okay?"
"Ah... okay!"
Li Jiuyou snapped out of his daze, the Longquan Sword instantly appearing in his hand. His face showed a belated, bewildered expression as he replied:
"Uncle Ning, I have innate full soul power."
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat surprised and glanced at Gu Rong, who nodded.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi knew that something was different.
The sword spirit appears to possess dragon energy, innate full soul power, and a clean foundation...
Who knows, he might be the next Guardian Douluo.
However, I need to observe more before making a decision.
"Innate full soul power!"
Just as Ning Fengzhi was pondering, Ning Rongrong, who was beside him, grabbed Li Jiuyou's hand in surprise, looked him up and down, and even reached out to pinch his cheek.
"My dad and two grandpas were so happy when I awakened level nine soul power. Are you really at full soul power? Why aren't they smiling?"
"Little Jiuyou, why are you staring at me?"
Li Jiuyou seemed to hear the sound of bones moving behind him, and also the faint hum of a sword.
However, I can only say I'm sorry, because capturing Ning Rongrong is Li Jiuyou's only option at the moment, and he has no choice but to take advantage of the situation despite the pressure.
Then, with Ning Fengzhi deliberately not interfering, he saw Li Jiuyou lower her head, hiding her gaze from Ning Rongrong, and a shy blush on her face.
Ning Fengzhi felt it was feasible, especially since it had to be a child; it would be too easy for them to understand.
"Little Jiuyou, do you want to stay in the shadows or follow Uncle Ning?"
Ning Fengzhi asked the same question again, adding, "The woman next to you is my daughter, Ning Rongrong. She will also cultivate with me."
Li Jiuyou immediately stopped holding his breath, thinking to himself that things were on the right track.
Holding your breath and bending your head down to press on your arteries can make your face appear redder, but you shouldn't do this for too long, as it can be dangerous.
With his face still slightly flushed, he looked up at Ning Fengzhi for the first time and said:
"But I can't speak... Can I really stay by Uncle Ning's side?"
Before Ning Fengzhi could speak, Li Jiuyou immediately waved his hand and said, "Never mind, I'll stay in Shadow. I think the name Shadow sounds nice and suits me well..."
Ning Fengzhi sensed the fear in Li Jiuyou's words.
"Little Jiuyou, do you know what a shadow is for?"
"Are they undercover agents? I heard my parents are undercover agents."
Hearing Li Jiuyou's question, Ning Fengzhi was even more satisfied.
Even his parents had only heard about it, so it seems that the void in his heart was a perfect blank that he could fill at will.
"Little Jiuyou, the shadow means protection, do you understand? Tell Uncle Ning, is there anyone you want to protect?"
