"Fireworks... the fireworks are no longer rising... the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's tribulation... is over..."
Ning Rongrong said, her face dazed.
To keep Xiao Yexuan from causing trouble for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect during its most perilous time, she had been... well, preoccupied with him.
She was practically exhausted.
Fortunately, she had persevered.
And she felt the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had persevered, too.
In Ning Rongrong's eyes, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was the most powerful sect. It was involved with so many other forces, and it wouldn't be destroyed so easily.
Ning Rongrong struggled to her feet, a look of joy on her face. She tilted her head and said,
"Xiao-gege… can you… can you take me to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? You promised… you promised to help me… to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect…"
Xiao Yexuan looked outside. Now, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had been wiped out. What was there to save?
Suddenly, Xiao Yexuan saw the unconcealed smugness in Ning Rongrong's eyes.
Xiao Yexuan wasn't stupid. He should have realized it earlier.
Why had Ning Rongrong initially wanted him to rush to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, only to later go back on her word and repeatedly hinder him?
It turned out, she wanted him to walk right into a trap.
If Xiao Yexuan had put himself in Ning Rongrong's shoes, he wouldn't have known that Ning Fengzhi, the two Title Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the majority of their elite disciples were all dead.
He would have thought the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would resolve the matter quickly, and then he and Ning Rongrong could return together to save them.
That Title Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would team up and arrest Xiao Yexuan.
That was Ning Rongrong's plan, and it was completely useless.
Even if Xiao Yexuan hadn't killed Ning Fengzhi and the others.
The war was already over. No matter how Xiao Yexuan saw it, now was not the time to go back.
He looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile and said:
"Rongrong, you have a truly dark heart. If I go now, am I saving your father or being ambushed by your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Title Douluo?"
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled. She hadn't expected her seemingly foolproof plan to be so easily seen through.
But now, Ning Rongrong could only try to make the most of a bad situation.
Ning Rongrong coquettishly said, "Xiao-gege, I... I didn't want to that much, I... I'm just very worried about my family's safety. Will you... will you take me back? Father and Grandfather must be safe now, they... they need Xiao-gege's help the most... Please, gege... okay...?"
Xiao Yexuan rolled his eyes. This Ning Rongrong really knew how to act. If Oscar, the yes-man, was here, he'd be completely mesmerized!
Xiao Yexuan really wanted to dismiss Ning Rongrong's idea. He wanted to prevent her from wanting to go out.
But, thinking about it, Ning Rongrong, the biggest filial daughter on the Douluo Continent, wouldn't be satisfied unless she knew exactly what he had done.
Ning Rongrong didn't want Xiao Yexuan to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect so early, it was also for her own freedom, to escape from Xiao Yexuan!
If Xiao Yexuan had gone to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect earlier, perhaps it wouldn't have been destroyed.
Xiao Yexuan would also have made Ning Fengzhi and the others reappear from the soul banner, rebuilding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
But, it was all Ning Rongrong's selfish desires that destroyed everything.
He wanted Ning Rongrong to witness all of this with her own eyes, to make her regret it for the rest of her life!
So, Xiao Yexuan nodded helplessly at Ning Rongrong and said: "Rongrong, I'm the best to you. Since you want to save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then I'll take you!"
Ning Rongrong hadn't actually believed her little display of "acting cute" would work. In her mind, she was already plotting how to get her father to come and rescue her later.
Ning Rongrong thought about her birthday. She'd have to go back then, so there'd still be a chance.
But she never expected Xiao Yexuan to actually agree to go with her and save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was now out of danger, and Xiao Yexuan went, he would face the combined might of two powerful Title Douluo. Then Ning Rongrong could return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
Thinking this, Ning Rongrong couldn't have been happier. She happily threw her arms around Xiao Yexuan's neck and exclaimed, "Thank you, Brother Xiao! I love you so much! Love, love... I love you to death! My Brother Xiao!"
This little girl sure knew how to sweet talk!
Next, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Yexuan tidied up their clothes a bit and walked out together.
Ning Rongrong hadn't left Shrek... no, wait, now it's called Yexuan Academy, in a long time.
She hadn't left the gates of Yexuan Academy in ages, and looking outside, she felt a sense of freedom.
The air outside smelled wonderful.
Along the way, there seemed to be far fewer people in the city today than before.
However, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had many shops, and soon, they came across one.
Ning Rongrong was excited; she knew this shop, and it had people she knew inside.
But after excitedly running over, she covered her mouth in shock and fear, trying not to cry.
It was a kind old grandfather. Ning Rongrong remembered that when the Sword Bone Douluo wasn't by her side, this old grandfather would take her around the city to play. He always found interesting things to do, and Ning Rongrong would play with them all day.
But now, that old grandfather was pinned to the shop door by a spear, looking incredibly miserable.
Not only that, but everyone in this shop was dead. Even the items in the shop had been completely looted.
It was absolutely atrocious!
"Who… who did this… who… who did this!" Ning Rongrong's vision blurred with tears. She had thought she could provide for the few people closest to her in their old age.
But now, they were dead here.
Xiao Yexuan stepped forward and noticed that the old man's blood hadn't dried yet. He said coldly, "The blood isn't dry. It looks like he died recently."
Xiao Yexuan's lips curled slightly. Only a few hours had passed since the death. What did that mean? If Ning Rongrong had found out sooner and asked Xiao Yexuan to come and help the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then this old man—the one closest to Ning Rongrong—wouldn't have died, right?
Ning Rongrong's pupils suddenly contracted, filled with regret. She mumbled, "Died recently… died recently… why… why me… why just recently… If I… if I… If I had come sooner, Grandpa Ning… wouldn't have died…"
