Chapter 400 Plan Success
"you win."
When Ning Fengzhi sighed and said these words, no one knew what the head of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School was thinking at this moment.
Maybe it's the gratification that her daughter got what she wanted, or maybe it's the reluctance to see her daughter finally leave him, or maybe it's dissatisfaction with this boy who kidnapped his daughter...
Although Oscar is also an outstanding person in the world, he is not inferior to Ning Rongrong's genius.
However, it is not the best choice after all.
But, who makes Rongrong like it...
In any case, this has become an established fact.
Ning Fengzhi restrained his vaguely complicated expression, and said to Oscar seriously: "Oscar."
"Sect Master Ning." Oscar's face was filled with joy that could be seen at a glance no matter how he concealed it.
"I don't ask too much of you." Ning Fengzhi said in a low voice.
"I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you not to disappoint Rongrong for the rest of your life."
"This is not what the head of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect should say, but this is a father's request."
"Father..." Ning Rongrong held Oscar's hand tightly, and his face was a little moved.
"Sect Master Ning, don't worry." Oscar nodded seriously.
He made no promises, promised nothing.
Because a man's commitment should not be on the surface, but in his heart.
"It's best." Ning Fengzhi nodded noncommittally.
"in addition……"
"Call me Uncle Ning from now on."
Sword Douluo, who had been silent all this time, also spoke out.
"Boy, be nice to Rongrong." Jian Douluo's voice was not loud, but it seemed to go straight to his heart.
"Rongrong is the little princess of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she has never suffered before, if you let me know that she has suffered with you..." Jian Douluo narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn't continue, but he could see what he meant from the wall behind him that was instantly smashed into tofu.
Oscar swallowed, and nodded frantically.
Damn, my girlfriend's mother's family is too strong!
I feel that my husband will be weak in the future...
"Grandpa Jian!" Ning Rongrong shouted coquettishly.
At this moment, because of Oscar's departure, the gloomy Ning Rongrong completely returned to the past.
No more haze.
"That's great." Qian Renxue said softly.
"It's naturally the best thing in the world for lovers to get married." Ye Yao smiled.
"Not only Rong Rong and Xiao Ao, but also Xiao San and Xiao Wu, and..."
A big hand reached out and grabbed the catkin.
"We." Ye Yao said gently.
"En." Qian Renxue smiled, and held the big hand behind her back.
After a while, in Ning Rongrong they finally restrained their emotions.
"Okay, since this matter is settled, then we should settle the next matter." Ning Fengzhi kindly pulled Ning Rongrong and walked towards Ye Yao.
"You are..." Ye Yao was a little confused.
Ning Fengzhi straightened his clothes, then solemnly bowed to Ye Yao.
Ye Yao was startled, how could he dare to accept this gift, he quickly jumped aside.
However, at the moment Ye Yao made a move, a mountain-like pressure hit Ye Yao overwhelmingly.
Although there was no malice, this also made Ye Yao's movements a beat slower.
That is to say, it was a step too late, which resulted in Ye Yao not being able to avoid Ning Fengzhi's gift.
"What are you doing all the time..." Ye Yao looked at Ning Fengzhi who was still bent over, and smiled wryly in his heart.
Ning Fengzhi did not answer Ye Yao's words, but said in a deep voice: "Rongrong!"
Immediately, under Ye Yao's astonished gaze, Ning Rongrong also bowed slightly to Ye Yao.
"This..." Not only Ye Yao, but also Tang San, Xiao Wu and Oscar were all dumbfounded.
What's happening here?
"Could it be..." Ye Yao had some guesses in his heart, and Qian Renxue looked at each other.
He couldn't help turning his gaze to Jian Douluo behind Ning Fengzhi, as if asking.
"What's the matter?" Jian Douluo stared.
"You still want me to give you a salute, old man?"
"Don't dare, dare not..." Ye Yao practiced waving his hands.
"Ye Yao." Ning Fengzhi said seriously.
"Although I have thanked you for a long time, but now, I still want to thank you again."
"If it wasn't for you, there would probably be no Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School now."
These words, like a thunderbolt, exploded in the hearts of the "spectating trio".
What is "there is no Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School"?
What did Ye Yao (big brother) do while we were away!
"You're really annoying this junior." Ye Yao said helplessly.
"You get up first, there is Rongrong, don't bend over, aren't you tired..."
Not to mention that even without his prior notice, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would most likely not be able to destroy the school under the greatly increased strength of Sword Douluo and Tang San's hidden weapons.
Let's talk about his relationship with Ning Rongrong, Oscar, and Sword Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi, who is a generation older than him, salutes him, what is this?
Even he was a little bit on pins and needles.
"No, brother Yao, this is what I should do." Ning Rongrong raised his head slightly, staring directly at Ye Yao with eyes full of gratitude.
Ning Fengzhi told her everything.
She never knew that not long after she left the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School was almost destroyed.
If it wasn't for Ye Yao...
Her face paled slightly.
She couldn't even imagine what would happen next.
Ye Yao deserves her gift.
"What's going on." Tang San finally couldn't help asking.
"Although it's not something bright, but it's such a big thing, you can't hide it..." Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment, then told everything.
There is no fiction, no cover-up, and it is completely truthful.
"Wuhundian, how dare..." Tang San thought in shock.
Because of his calmness, Rao couldn't help being shocked at this moment.
And Oscar at the side, like Ning Rongrong and the others, saluted Ye Yao.
"Xiao Ao, are you coming too?" Ye Yao slapped his forehead with a slap.
Do you like to bend over so much?
"Thank you, Ye Yao, thank you!" Oscar said excitedly.
"Come on!" Ye Yao kicked Oscar in disgust, making him stand up grinning.
"You haven't passed the sect yet, and you're calling yourself the son-in-law of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Even if you want to, Rong Rong and Sect Master Ning won't."
"Hehehe..." Oscar didn't speak, just kept giggling.
"By the way, Ye Yao." Ning Fengzhi said suddenly.
"The situation with the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect has come out."
"Oh?" Ye Yao's eyes narrowed, and his face suddenly became a little nervous.
"Are there many casualties?"
Because of Ye Yao's personal participation in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the casualties of both parties were minimized.
However, the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect...
Ye Yao is really beyond his reach.
With the advance notification from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it stands to reason that if the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex responds quickly, it should be able to withdraw most of the disciples in time, and then leave a group of people behind...
However, Ye Yao never saw it with his own eyes after all.
Therefore, Ye Yao still couldn't relax.
Ning Fengzhi didn't speak, just looked in one direction, and said: "You should ask the master about this question."
"Teacher knows?" Ye Yao's frown deepened.
"A few days ago, we came to Heaven Dou City." Ning Fengzhi said in a deep voice.
"Because of the relationship between the master and the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect...so, I still told him about it."
"With the character of the teacher, I'm afraid he can't help but go there himself?" Ye Yao sighed, feeling a little headache.
Although it seems that they have broken up with Zong En, the blue electric overlord, even the master has not mentioned this name for many years when he taught them.
However, the broken bones are still connected to the tendons.
Not to mention that blood is thicker than water after all...
"In the teacher's heart, I'm afraid I still hope to be recognized by my family." Tang San sighed softly.
Therefore, after the master heard the news, he would definitely go there immediately.
Even if he knew that his strength might not be of much help, he might even die.
"Don't worry." Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the worry on the expressions of several people.
"When I informed Grandmaster of the information, I am afraid that the Wuhun Palace has already arrived at the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect. By the time Grandmaster and the others rush over, the battle will have been over for a long time."
As soon as these words came out, Ye Yao felt relieved.
In this way, it's just that the teacher of Soul Sect should not be short of arms or legs...
However, Ye Yao was still a little apprehensive.
I'm going back to school next time, if...
"It's okay." Qian Renxue said softly.
"It'll be all right."
She knew what Ye Yao was worried about, and what he was trying to do all these things for.
So, how could she have done nothing...
She has never been a vase.
So, a quarter of an hour later...
Ye Yao, who had just stepped into the Shrek gate, saw that familiar figure at a glance.
"Ye Yao!"
Ye Yao opened his hands a little at a loss, looking at the figure hugging him, feeling a little at a loss.
"Teacher, this, this, you are..."
"Thank you!" The master said with a choked voice.
"Thank you!"
When he heard that the sect was facing annihilation, he was almost like a thunderbolt, and his whole energy and spirit almost collapsed.
Then, after recovering a bit, he refused the help of Flender and others, and resolutely went to the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect together with Liu Erlong.
Three days later, they came to the sect that had obviously experienced a great battle.
Seeing the dilapidated place, the master could hardly believe that this was the home he was most proud of.
If it wasn't for the rare sight of the corpses of Zongmen disciples, the master would almost pass out in a single match.
Afterwards, the master found the surviving clansman based on the signal left on the scene that belonged exclusively to the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect.
Of course, it also includes the master's father, the current suzerain of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect, the true pillar, and the 95th-level Titled Douluo.
The master breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that although most of the clansmen were wounded, the number had not decreased too significantly.
However, when he saw his elder brother with complicated complexion, and the old man who was still strong despite his age, he flinched.
He wanted to leave, but how could he leave in front of a Soul Douluo and a Title Douluo as he was only a Soul Sect.
No one else knows what it says about long-lost relatives.
Others only know that after the master talked to his father, his expression seemed to relax a lot, as if...
Finally, there is no burden, as if it has been relieved for many years.
"Although the strength is as weak as ever, it is not worth mentioning the quality of the soul master." His father said bluntly.
"but……"
"The... theory you are focusing on, I see... very good."
The master raised his head in disbelief, almost in disbelief, these were the words his almost stubborn father would say.
"And...you have cultivated a good student..."
"This time, if it wasn't for him, maybe the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect would have already..."
His father said so.
"You are not trash!"
"It's my fault."
Many years ago, the father who once angrily denounced the master as a waste, that stubborn father who was completely impossible to give in...
To actually admit his mistake with his own mouth, to really...
"Welcome home." The elder brother of the master, the next master of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect, and the father of Yu Tianheng, took a step forward and hugged this brother who had been separated for many years.
The master raised his head and saw many familiar faces.
In the past, those faces with indifference, sarcasm, and sneer, but now they all have a sense of gratitude, kindness, and shame...
Attitudes have almost completely reversed.
The master cried.
He is almost 60 years old, but now he is crying like a child.
After decades, after being abandoned by the sect for many years, he finally got the approval of the sect again.
at last……
Once again, he can call himself a disciple of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Sect.
Fallen leaves return to their roots, blood is thicker than water, no matter how much injustice and resentment they have towards the Zongmen's indifference, there is still a bit of yearning and desire left.
The desire to be recognized, the desire to be accepted.
Not only masters are like this, even the world-renowned Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, if it is not the same, how can Tang San return to the Clear Sky School, cut off his own limbs, and return his spirit bone.
Even, even Tang San...
"Tang Sect..." Tang San looked a little dazed.
Perhaps, he can rebuild his unforgettable sect in this foreign world?
As for manpower
Tang San looked at Ye Yao's back, thinking about everything.
The master was very emotional, even though it had been a few days, but the moment he saw Ye Yao, he still couldn't help his emotions.
Because, all of this comes from his disciples.
"Being able to accept you and Xiaosan as disciples is the most correct thing I have done in my life." The master said hoarsely.
"none of them."
Ye Yao's expression relaxed, and then he smiled slightly.
He got it.
Not only the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but even the casualties of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon School were well controlled.
His plan was successful.

He made no promises, promised nothing.

"It's best." Ning Fengzhi nodded noncommittally.

Sword Douluo, who had been silent all this time, also spoke out.
"Boy, be nice to Rongrong." Jian Douluo's voice was not loud, but it seemed to go straight to his heart.
