Da Ming looked at Ye Qiu strangely.
He also had some understanding of the spirit ring configuration of humans.
From what he had seen, no matter who it was, their third ring was purple.
Except for that purple-robed woman!
Thinking of this, Da Ming's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty, and he couldn't help but ask,
"Ye Qiu, Sister Rongrong is only a Spirit Elder, shouldn't she add a Ten Thousand Year spirit ring? Fifteen Thousand Years is simply impossible, right?!" (I misremembered in the previous chapter, it should be Fifteen Thousand, already corrected!)
"Normally, it's impossible, but my Spirit is special and can help others obtain a slightly higher spirit ring, look!"
He needed to hunt for their Spirits, and this couldn't be hidden, so Ye Qiu didn't deliberately conceal anything.
A blood-red light burst from his eyes, and purple, black, and black spirit rings rose from beneath his feet.
"Hiss~! How is this possible!?"
Da Ming gasped, staring blankly at Ye Qiu.
This was the second time he had seen such an outrageous spirit ring configuration.
No! It should be said… Ye Qiu's spirit ring configuration was still far inferior to that mysterious woman's!
"Haha… Da Ming, how about it? Xiao Qiu is very powerful, right! Zhuqing's second spirit ring is also purple!"
Xiao Wu, showing off, hugged her lover, happier than if she herself had surprised Da Ming.
Since it wasn't the first time he had seen it, Da Ming quickly calmed down.
"Indeed, very powerful!"
Da Ming nodded sincerely, a hint of worry fleetingly crossing his praising eyes.
If such a powerful human were to grow up, he wondered what kind of impact it would have on the Spirit Beast race.
In just an instant, he remembered again.
Ye Qiu was concerned about Er Ming's dinner, and immediately put away this bit of unnecessary worry.
What's more… the fate of the Spirit Beast race was not something that a small Sky Azure Bull Python like himself could control.
He was not qualified, nor did he have the ability!
Dealing with Xiao Wu's random kisses, Ye Qiu didn't notice the fleeting vigilance in Da Ming's eyes.
Seeing that Da Ming had no desire to say more.
He also stopped talking, embracing Xiao Wu, whose face was flushed, and focused on Ning Rongrong.
At this moment, the golden light on her body had gradually receded.
Her right hand, shaped like an orchid, held the colorful Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda aloft.
Her cultivation had reached level thirty, and without an additional spirit ring, it outwardly appeared to have stopped growing.
Time passed.
The setting sun completely sank in the west, and the faint afterglow painted a magnificent golden horizon.
The temperature of the Life Lake also dropped slightly.
Zhuqing turned to look at Ye Qiu.
Seeing Xiao Wu in his arms, her face showed shyness.
She whispered.
"Ye Qiu~ I… I'm a little cold."
As she spoke, she had already gently walked over to Ye Qiu's side and squeezed into his arms.
Her cherry-red face rested on Ye Qiu's shoulder.
And she met Xiao Wu's gaze on his other shoulder.
Under Xiao Wu's playful gaze, she endured her shyness, grabbing Ye Qiu's hand and wrapping it around her waist.
Feeling a bit embarrassed by Xiao Wu's gaze, Zhuqing's attention shifted to Ning Rongrong.
"Ye Qiu, is Rongrong almost done absorbing?"
"Hmm, should be soon!"
Ye Qiu smiled.
He gently tightened his embrace, pulling the distance between them closer.
While feeling the softness, he lightly kissed Zhuqing's forehead, responding softly.
"..."
Da Ming and Er Ming froze for a moment, then turned to look at each other, motionless, waiting quietly.
Just as Ye Qiu's voice fell.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in front of Ning Rongrong suddenly burst forth with nine-colored radiance!
Zhuqing, who dared not face Xiao Wu's teasing, was immediately startled when she saw the slightly taller glazed pagoda.
She quickly reached out, pointing to her discovery.
"Ye Qiu! What's going on with Rongrong!?"
Zhuqing slightly pushed Ye Qiu's body away, looking at him strangely.
"Shh~!"
Ye Qiu, as if he had expected it, showed a satisfied smile.
He exhaled a hot breath into her tender ear.
Making her pupils tremble slightly, her fair and rosy ears filled with a reddish hue.
Her body softened, and the doubt in her heart ceased.
"Xiao Qiu~ What happened to Rongrong?" By the time Xiao Wu looked again, Ning Rongrong had already put away her Spirit.
Ye Qiu gently released them, his face full of joy.
"You'll know in a moment, Rongrong has finished absorbing!"
Ning Rongrong, who had already put away her Spirit, had completely reined in the golden light on her body.
Ning Rongrong hadn't even opened her eyes yet, but her smile was already irrepressible.
She looked at her hands, seemingly unable to believe it.
She quickly looked up, and Ye Qiu was also smiling at her.
"Ye Qiu! I'm already level thirty! No, I can feel it's even more than that!" Ning Rongrong quickly got up and pounced onto Ye Qiu.
Her legs left the ground, wrapped around his waist, and her arms encircled his neck, locking him in.
Her azure eyes, full of sweet affection, narrowed into crescent moons.
Her red lips parted, like a dragonfly touching water, raining down kisses haphazardly on Ye Qiu's face, lips, and forehead.
Xiao Wu and Zhuqing exchanged glances.
They finally understood why Ye Qiu had let go of the rabbit and cat he had in hand.
It turned out it was to clear the stage for Ning Rongrong.
"As long as you're satisfied!" Ye Qiu held her perky buttocks with both hands, returning her kisses, tasting lightly.
"Satisfied, Miss is very satisfied with the gift you prepared!" Ning Rongrong's face was flushed, and she twisted her body, tightly locking onto Ye Qiu.
"Uh…"
Feeling a slight sense of suffocation, Ye Qiu had no choice but to use the massage method she had taught him to loosen himself.
"Mmm, uh… Ye Qiu~"
Feeling the familiar, perfectly applied force in an unfamiliar place.
A warmth rushed from her tailbone straight to her brain.
Ning Rongrong let out a muffled groan, softly calling her lover's name.
Her eyes shimmered with spring-like affection, and her body felt a bit weak.
Relying on Ye Qiu's help, she managed not to fall down.
"Phew~" Ye Qiu exhaled, dodging Ning Rongrong, who was already slightly tipsy and trying to bite him.
He gently released her hold on him, allowing her to stand back on the ground.
"Ye Qiu~" She gently tugged on Ye Qiu's hand, her voice sweet and a little dissatisfied.
"Rongrong, you're so mushy!" Xiao Wu hugged herself, rubbing her arms continuously.
"Ah, Xiao Wu! I, I'm not…"
Ning Rongrong was startled, her face instantly filled with shyness, and she weakly retorted.
"You are! You didn't even look at me and Zhuqing, and as soon as you got up, you wanted to… to do that!" Xiao Wu looked at her huffily.
"Mhm!" Zhuqing also nodded in agreement.
Even Da Ming and Er Ming also lightly swayed their heads up and down.
Seeing everyone nod in unison, Ning Rongrong was filled with shame and annoyance.
"Ah! Ye Qiu, you dare to nod too, I, I didn't, obviously you and Xiao Wu were even more… Ugh!"
"Cough cough!" Ye Qiu coughed twice, quickly covering Ning Rongrong's unrestrained mouth.
"Alright, Rongrong!"
To prevent her from continuing to blurt out, Ye Qiu said mysteriously, "Rongrong, the cultivation increase isn't the only surprise!"
"?"
Ning Rongrong, who was about to open her mouth to bite him, looked at Ye Qiu strangely, took his hand away, and was a little confused.
"Not the only surprise?"
"That's right! Look at your Spirit…" Ye Qiu smiled as he held her right hand in his, raising it level.
Zhuqing's eyes lit up, as if she understood what had happened to Ning Rongrong.
Envy and joy appeared in her eyes.
Ning Rongrong, with a flushed face, obediently summoned her Spirit.
In the palm of her right hand, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared, and beneath it, a faint golden glow like tulip petals subtly supported it.
Xiao Wu curiously leaned in. "It doesn't seem to have changed much?"
Ning Rongrong frowned; she sensed something was a little off.
"No!" Zhuqing, usually calm and composed, suddenly exclaimed.
"Rongrong, quickly count how many layers your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has!?"
Ning Rongrong froze for a moment, her heart rate suddenly increased, and she stared at her Spirit, extending her small hand, pointing.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight!? Eight! Nine! How could it… become nine layers?"
A huge surprise hit her.
Ning Rongrong felt her head spinning a little.
The latter part of her voice had already become trembling.
The seven-layered, seven-colored Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda had turned into a nine-layered, nine-colored one!
What did this mean?
It meant that she would no longer be limited by her family's inheritance.
She wouldn't be like her father and past ancestors, stuck at level seventy-nine for life, unable to break through!
Ning Rongrong's gaze couldn't help but turn to Ye Qiu in front of her, full of deep affection.
"Rongrong, how is it? Are you surprised?!"
Ye Qiu pinched her pretty face, leaving a few marks.
Suddenly, he was hit, and let out a muffled groan: "Uh-pfft… cough cough!"
Ning Rongrong's excitement and joy could no longer be suppressed, and she quickly tackled Ye Qiu to the ground.
She hugged him tightly, more forcefully than ever before.
She finally understood what Ye Qiu had said before: If she received his gift, she might be so happy that she would give herself to him!
It turned out this was not a joke!
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, even if Ye Qiu still considered her small body might not be able to take it, she would have forced herself upon him.
To reward him properly!
Ning Rongrong hugged Ye Qiu, burying her head in his neck, her voice clear and loud, unable to hide her excitement.
"Ye Qiu! I truly love you to death!"
"Do you know what this is? This is the legendary Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, a goal my father pursued his entire life but never achieved!"
"This means my future achievements will definitely be higher than my father's! Thank you so much!"
Ning Rongrong said a lot in one breath, her body still trembling slightly.
Ye Qiu gently patted her back.
In a soft, gentle voice.
"Mm, as long as you like it!"
Ning Rongrong looked up, directly at the man below her, her face flushed.
"I like it very much! Ye Qiu, my lord~"
Originally still full of surprise, she suddenly took on a hint of charm.
Her voice was soft and alluring.
"This humble one has nothing to repay you with, so from now on, I can only work like an ox or a horse, at your disposal~"
"Uh! Rongrong... why does that sound a bit off, ugh!"
Before he could finish speaking, Ning Rongrong had already taken the initiative.
Zhu Zhuqing watched in a daze, somewhat unable to look away, but occasionally glanced around, as if to keep watch for Ye Qiu.
"Er Ming, what are you doing?! No looking!"
Xiao Wu pouted, a little displeased.
She suddenly noticed Er Ming, who was curiously lowering his head to get a closer look.
Immediately, she pointed at him and shouted loudly.
Er Ming immediately stood at attention, looking straight ahead, unblinking.
"Da Ming?" Xiao Wu glared at Da Ming.
He was very sensible and began to supervise his troublesome younger brother.
Time slowly passed.
Xiao Wu's pout grew higher and higher.
Ning Rongrong, who had been sucking and biting, suddenly went silent.
Zhu Zhuqing could clearly see that the back of her neck was completely red, and her ears, apart from the flush, had no trace of paleness.
Ye Qiu was also a bit exasperated and released his embracing hands.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged glances and together helped the limp Ning Rongrong up.
They glanced at Ye Qiu's condition, and their faces couldn't help but flush.
After lying down to calm down for a while, Ye Qiu also got up again, feeling a bit awkward as he adjusted his clothes and pants under the gaze of the two girls.
"Rongrong, are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Ning Rongrong struggled, breaking free from Xiao Wu and the other girl who were supporting her.
After the brief passion, she had also recovered.
She reached out and re-summoned her Spirit, seemingly with some effort, indicating she hadn't fully recovered yet.
"Ye Qiu, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is too important to the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! Let's go home!"
Ning Rongrong's eyes showed tenderness, pride, and joy.
What nonsense Hidden Weapons. Ye Qiu's kindness alone was enough for her father to happily entrust her to him.
"Go home?" Ye Qiu shook his head and smiled, flicking her delicate nose.
"Don't worry, I'll take you back tomorrow. For now, let's go hunt your third spirit ring!"
"Mhm, mhm…" Ning Rongrong nodded excitedly.
She had almost forgotten that her third spirit ring was still empty!
When she returned, she would display her cultivation and Hidden Weapons.
Then, when she released her Spirit, it would surely shock Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, and her father!
Xiao Wu made a bitter face: "Ah? Xiao Qiu, if you and Rongrong go home, what about Zhuqing and me?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ye Qiu, also a little reluctant.
"Don't worry, it won't take long!" Ye Qiu gently pulled the two girls into his embrace.
He also knew that Zhu Zhuqing could not leave Shrek Academy for the time being.
"That's good!" Xiao Wu's smile reappeared.
Zhu Zhuqing hugged Ye Qiu, pressing close, the sense of oppression maximized.
"Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, wait here for a bit! I'll take Rongrong to hunt for a spirit ring!"
"Mhm, got it!"
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing nodded simultaneously, reluctantly letting go of Ye Qiu.
"Rongrong, let's go!"
"Ah! Ye Qiu!"
Ye Qiu's feet left afterimages as he quickly scooped Ning Rongrong up by the waist amid her surprised cries.
He held her in a standard princess carry, continuously leaping, and landed on Er Ming's shoulder.
"Er Ming, thank you for your trouble!" Ye Qiu patted his large neck.
"Roar~!" Er Ming let out a roar, bidding farewell to Xiao Wu and Da Ming.
Then he ran off.
"Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, wait for me to come back!" Ye Qiu waved at the two girls.
Then he looked at Ning Rongrong, who was trembling in his arms.
"Rongrong, why are you closing your eyes?"
"I… I'm a little scared…" Ning Rongrong buried her head in Ye Qiu's arms, feeling the intense vibrations and unable to stand steadily.
"Don't worry, I'm holding you!"
"…"
Watching Er Ming slowly move away, Xiao Wu suddenly felt a bit bored.
"Zhuqing, do you want me to take you around?"
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and sat down cross-legged.
"Xiao Wu, you go by yourself. I want to cultivate for a while!"
"Ah? How can you be like this? As soon as Ye Qiu isn't around, you get obsessed with cultivation again!"
Xiao Wu grumbled listlessly.
Zhu Zhuqing, however, paid no attention, slowly closed her eyes, and began to cultivate.
She was different from Xiao Wu and Rongrong.
Behind Xiao Wu were two Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts comparable to Titled Douluo.
Behind Ning Rongrong was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, with two Titled Douluo, and her Spirit had now evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
But she was born into the Star Luo Zhu family.
Her family's help to her was very limited; she could only rely on herself.
She didn't want to be surpassed; she also wanted to possess… power that could help Ye Qiu!
…
Ye Qiu and Ning Rongrong had been brought into the Mixed Zone by Er Ming.
Ning Rongrong had also gradually adapted…
"Ah! Ye Qiu, this is so exciting!"
Standing on the Titan Giant Ape's shoulder, with Ye Qiu holding her waist, Ning Rongrong let out a joyful shout.
She spread her arms, watching the trees rapidly receding, enjoying the oncoming wind, and feeling the warmth of Ye Qiu's embrace behind her.
She was completely exhilarated, even boldly beginning to instruct Er Ming.
"Er Ming, run faster! Oh wow~! Ah woo~"
"Roar!" Er Ming let out a low roar, a golden light illuminating his body, with faint patterns spreading.
His speed surged, filling Ning Rongrong's mouth with wind.
"Haha… You'd better be quiet!" Ye Qiu rubbed against her tender cheek.
Soon, Er Ming found a Spirit Beast that met Ye Qiu's requirements and suited his taste.
Manao Jia Turtle!
A freshwater herbivorous, relatively small Spirit Beast with no powerful offensive capabilities, but delicious meat.
Its shell was covered with beautiful, magnificent agate-like crystals.
spirit power constantly flowed within them.
When in danger, these crystals would shatter, providing them with a large amount of spirit power, then they would wiggle their short legs and run away.
A Ten Thousand Year Manao Jia Turtle had a body radius of a full meter.
Er Ming quickly arrived at a huge pond, several hundred meters in size.
Without Ye Qiu needing to say more, a golden light suddenly condensed on Er Ming's fist, and then he slammed it into the water with force.
Bang! Splash splash
The golden fist wind entered the water, stirring up huge waves and causing continuous explosions.
Many of the Spirit Beasts in the water were blasted out.
Flipping in the air.
A Ten Thousand Year Titan Giant Ape dealing with a fifteen-thousand-year-old small fry was simply effortless.
Er Ming was quick-eyed and quick-handed, bending his knees and leaping up, he grabbed the Manao Jia Turtle, which was three meters in diameter, in his hand.
Then he slammed it hard onto the ground.
Boom!
Dust flew everywhere, and the ground cracked inch by inch.
"Er Ming, thank you! Please help me guard!"
Looking at the Manao Jia Turtle, which was barely breathing, Ye Qiu's mouth twitched, and he quickly thanked him.
Then he jumped down, still holding the somewhat startled Ning Rongrong.
Er Ming scratched his head, rubbed his belly, and also sat down.
"Rongrong, are you alright? Get ready to absorb the spirit ring!"
"Mhm, I'm fine now!"
Ning Rongrong's face was a bit pale, frightened by Er Ming's fighting style just now.
"Mhm! Then sit cross-legged and summon your Spirit!" Ye Qiu pushed Ning Rongrong in front of the Manao Jia Turtle and gently pressed her down.
He also sat down cross-legged and placed both hands on Ning Rongrong's back.
