NOVEL NEXT Chapter 16: Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin
Standing behind Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin nodded towards Zhongli and Paimeng, a gesture of polite acknowledgement.
A nod in passing, nothing more.
Then, Chen Xin uttered two words.
His name.
"Chen Xin."
Chen Xin, Martial Soul: Seven Kill Sword, Level 96 Super Douluo, one of the Elders Supreme of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.
The reason why the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect established the position of Elder Supreme was to distinguish the greatest contributors who protect the sect from the ordinary elders.
If there were no Elders Supreme, wouldn't Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and others be ranked alongside some Soul Douluos or even some direct-line Soul Saints? Wouldn't that be an insult to the title of Douluo?
To distinguish them and give proper respect to the Title Douluo, the position of Elder Supreme emerged.
The status of Elder Supreme is equivalent to that of the Sect Master, but the ultimate decision-making power still rests with the Sect Master.
This is the last bottom line for the direct line of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
There is no other way. Who made them have no fighting power? They can only assist others and rely on others to survive in this cruel Douluo Continent?
Paimon did not hesitate, flew to Zhongli, and said politely: "Hello, Sect Master Ning Fengzhi!"
"Hello, handsome Grandpa Chenxin!"
"I'm Paimon, Paimon is Paimon."
"He is Zhongli."
She was very familiar with this way of greeting.
"Interesting little guy, such a martial spirit is simply a miracle."
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin thought to themselves.
This was the first time they had seen such a magical martial spirit as Paimon, and it was not recorded in the ancient books of the sect.
In other words, before meeting Paimon, they had never even heard of this kind of martial spirit, let alone seen it.
If this little girl had nine spirit rings of more than 50,000 years, her strength would be enough to destroy the world!
They think there are only two reasons why Zhongli has not given her any spirit rings yet.
The first one: He haven't decided what route Paimon should take.
The second type: Not finding a suitable spirit ring.
If you own a 100,000-year spirit ring, you may look down on spirit rings that are less than 100,000 years old!
Once he finds a suitable hundred thousand year soul beast, he will take action!
A hundred thousand year spirit ring and a spirit ring under a hundred thousand years are two different concepts.
Suddenly, Paimon seemed to have thought of something and said, "Zhongli said last night that there would be distinguished guests coming today. Were you talking about them?"
Paimon really had not forgotten this matter, because Zhongli mentioned it again during breakfast.
However, she seemed to have never seen these two "distinguished guests" before.
Could it be that Zhongli secretly left while she was sleeping and met her?
This could also explain why Zhongli knew so much more than her.
Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi, Zhongli: "..."
Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi looked at each other, then looked at Zhongli who remained calm, and they were shocked.
This person actually guessed that they would come?
If this is true, it would be quite terrifying!
Is it possible that the guests Zhongli mentioned are not just two of them?
"The little one who can't keep a secret."
Zhongli complained in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.
He had expected Ning Fengzhi to come and visit him, but he was not sure when the other party would come.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is located near Heaven Dou City, so it would be difficult for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect not to know what is happening at the city gate.
Facing the sudden appearance of the "Title Douluo", how could they not investigate the other party? What if there was a possibility of recruiting him, or Ning Fengzhi and others felt that he was a threat?
"If there's nobody else, it should be us."
Ning Fengzhi said with a smile on his face and very confidently.
Distinguished guest?
As the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and Chen Xin as a level 96 Super Douluo, they are worthy of the title of distinguished guest.
If they are not worthy of being called distinguished guests, who else in the world can?
Ning Fengzhi's smile gives people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.
Obviously, this smile was specially practiced.
As the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, how could he be a kind-hearted person?
"No wonder Zhongli made two extra cups of tea..."
Paimon muttered something and continued, "Please come in, my two guests!"
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were a little hesitant. Zhongli didn't say a word from beginning to end. All the words were spoken by his martial spirit.
Logically speaking, there is absolutely no problem with your martial spirit representing yourself.
However, Zhongli's situation is rather peculiar.
Do they listen to Paimon or Zhongli?
It seems that he can see what Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin are thinking.
Zhongli cupped his hands and said politely, "Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo, please come in."
"Thank you!"
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin looked at each other and spoke quickly.
After a while, all of them sat down.
When they saw the teacup in front of Zhongli, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin believed what Paimon said.
The other party was really well prepared!
"Please."
Pushing the two teacups to Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin respectively, Zhongli said something.
The tea culture on Douluo Continent is still in a state of development. Even Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin do not understand many of the "principles".
Zhongli's movements were as gentle and very entertaining to watch. Just as they were about to take a closer look and take note of it, the other party had already distributed the tea.
"Thank you very much."
Although the two thanked him, they did not drink tea immediately. Zhongli knew what they were worried about without even thinking about it.
It's just that they are afraid that there is poison in the tea.
Seeing this, Zhongli didn't say much and started to taste the tea by himself.
"Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, Grandpa Chen Xin, why don't you drink tea?"
"The tea that Zhongli brews is not something that ordinary people can drink."
Paimon asked doubtfully. Although she didn't like drinking tea, the tea brewed by Zhongli had a unique flavor. It was a good choice to drink it occasionally.
After hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin felt a little embarrassed. Some things, it would be bad to point them out directly to their faces...
But, Paimon, this little cutie, is really hard to hate.
Look at her "wise" eyes and that puzzled expression...
After thinking for a while, Ning Fengzhi took the lead in picking up the teacup and began to taste the tea, imitating Zhongli's example.
Although he also has his own way of tasting tea, it seems a bit inelegant and succinct compared to Zhongli's.
"Um?"
After just one sip, Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up. This tea...
This tea is just ordinary tea, but after being processed by Zhongli's craftsmanship, it becomes a little bit extraordinary.
Of course, it just enhances the aroma of the tea itself.
"His Majesty is not only extremely powerful, but also extremely skilled in the art of tea!"
Ning Fengzhi put down the teacup reluctantly and praised from the bottom of his heart.
As the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he naturally cannot lose face for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
No matter how much you love something, you have to let it go when the time comes.
