Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Chapter 22 A Young Hero, His Name Spreads Throughout Qibao!
At the end, Ning Yifeng's words became somewhat meaningful: "Especially, to forge a good relationship with future powerhouses."

Zhu Yun'er immediately understood the other party's intention.

Ning Yifeng recognized Dai Yuntian's enormous potential and wanted to invest in him and establish a good relationship before Dai Yuntian truly rose to prominence!

This is perfectly normal for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is known for its business acumen and long-term vision.

"Sect Leader Ning is too kind."

Zhu Yun'er said modestly, quickly weighing the options in her mind.

Befriending the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is not a bad thing for the White Tiger Duke's Mansion or even the Star Luo Empire, but the premise is that Yun Tian's core secret as the Chosen One cannot be exposed.

Ning Yifeng observed Zhu Yun'er's reaction and knew that the time was right, so he revealed his true purpose: "My daughter and Wu Feng have offended you today and offended your son and Miss Zhu Lu. I apologize on their behalf."

"To express our apologies, and to celebrate your son's recovery and the extraordinary talent he has displayed, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School wishes to offer a small gift..."

After he finished speaking, he paused and gestured to Elder Feng beside him.

Master Feng understood, and as if he had been prepared, he took out a jade box carved with crystal cloud patterns. The jade was warm and smooth, and was obviously very valuable.

Ning Yifeng opened the jade box himself, and immediately saw that the box was lined with brocade, on which lay a piece of soul bone that was entirely green and as exquisite as jade.

"Madam, this is a 40,000-year-old jade tiger's right leg bone that my clan recently acquired at an auction. It's just a small gift, nothing special, but I hope you and Young Master Yuntian will accept it."

Although Zhu Yun'er's expression remained unchanged, she was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

This gift is truly precious!

The Emerald Tiger is already a top-tier tiger-type soul beast, with top-notch attack and defense, not to mention the soul bone dropped by a 40,000-year-old Emerald Tiger.

The value of this soul bone is enough to drive any soul master family crazy!
On their very first meeting, Ning Yifeng was surprisingly generous in his offer for the sake of a good relationship.

Perhaps they have ulterior motives...

Sure enough, before Zhu Yun'er could respond, Ning Yifeng seized the opportunity to reveal his true intention: "I heard that Madam has not yet chosen an academy for Young Master Yuntian?"

"I have a favor to ask. If possible, could my daughter, Ning Tian, ​​and Young Master Yun Tian attend the same academy? This would allow the younger generation to interact more, support each other, and make progress together. What do you think, Madam?"

Zhu Yun'er's expression shifted slightly, and she politely declined, "Sect Leader Ning, I haven't actually decided which academy to attend yet..."

Ning Yifeng was an extremely astute person, and he immediately understood the other party's meaning. Far from showing the slightest displeasure, he immediately stood up, bowed slightly to Zhu Yun'er, and clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, adopting an extremely humble posture.
"It was my rudeness and lack of consideration. I hope you will forgive me and not blame my daughter for her recklessness today."

This action greatly surprised Zhu Yun'er, who quickly stood up and offered a helping hand: "Sect Leader Ning, you're too kind."

She never imagined that the dignified Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would actually bow down and apologize to her for such a trivial matter.
You should know that their status is on par with that of a monarch.

This was a scene she had never even dreamed of before!
Ning Yifeng's actions were undoubtedly sending a very strong signal to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and even more so to Dai Yuntian himself.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has extremely high hopes for his future and is willing to pay a great price for it.

……

During the dinner, the adults gathered at the main table to discuss important matters, and Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, as the older representatives of Shrek Academy, were also invited to attend.

The atmosphere was completely different at another round table set up specifically for the younger generation.

Zhu Lu carefully peeled a crystal-clear shrimp and placed it naturally into Dai Yuntian's bowl: "Brother Yuntian, try this, it's very fresh."

Dai Yuntian smiled gently at her, picked up a shrimp, put it in his mouth, and nodded in praise, "Mmm, it's delicious."

Then, he peeled a shrimp for Zhu Lu.

The two showed a tacit understanding and closeness in their actions.

This scene caught the eye of Wu Xi on the other side, and his eyes lit up as if he had found the "correct" example.

He quickly followed suit, frantically peeling several shrimp and clumsily piling them into a small dish, which he then eagerly pushed in front of Ning Tian: "Xiao Tian, ​​you should eat too, I... I peeled them for you!"

However, Ning Tian merely glanced at the plate of shrimp, his eyes calm and unwavering.

She didn't touch her chopsticks, but instead gently pushed the entire plate in front of Wu Feng, saying with concern, "Xiao Feng, you're injured, eat more to replenish your strength." Wu Feng was already seething with anger today because he hadn't beaten Dai Yuntian, and seeing his useless older brother trying to curry favor with her only made him angrier.

Without even glancing at the plate of shrimp, she swept it aside, knocking it to the floor, several shrimp scattering onto the carpet. She glared at Wu Xi, furious at her lack of self-control.

"Wu Xi! Can't you use this energy for good? What's the use of learning all this nonsense? Focusing on cultivation and improving your strength is the most important thing!"

Wu Xi looked aggrieved and whispered in protest, "But...but I peeled it for Xiao Tian..."

Ning Tian glanced at him coldly: "Wu Xi, I have never asked or expected you to do these things for me. This is all wishful thinking on your part. Moreover, I hope you understand that there is no possibility between us."

She was raised as the heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School from a young age, and her mind was far more mature than her peers. She was well aware of Wu Xi's feelings and had clearly rejected him more than once.

These words extinguished Wu Xi's fiery enthusiasm like a bucket of cold water. He instantly deflated, lowered his head in frustration, and tried to comfort himself: "Xiao Tian is angry with me again... It must be something I didn't do well enough. I need to try harder..."

Seeing this, Ning Tian glanced at Dai Yuntian, who was chatting and laughing with Zhu Lu across from him, and then looked at Wu Xi. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Why is there such a big difference between teenagers?

Seeing Wu Xi's timid and spineless appearance, her younger sister Wu Feng was even more furious. She lowered her voice and scolded him angrily for his lack of ambition:
"Can't you learn from him? You're a whole year older than him, but look at you, your soul power level is even lower than mine. Besides offering these useless fawning gestures, what else can you do?"

As she said this, her gaze involuntarily drifted towards Dai Yuntian, her eyes filled with resentment and frustration.

Even her pride in the dragon, which she had always been so proud of, became somewhat blurred and uncertain at this moment.

……

The night is deep.

After seeing off all the guests, Zhu Yun'er led Dai Yuntian to a secluded secret room and took out the jade box containing the jade tiger soul bone.

The box was opened, and a green light flowed out. The 40,000-year-old soul bone lay quietly on the brocade, radiating an alluring energy fluctuation.

Zhu Yun'er said gently, "Yun'er, take advantage of the quiet of the night while I protect you. Absorb this soul bone. This 40,000-year-old jade tiger soul bone is of excellent quality and is quite compatible with your martial soul. It will definitely make your foundation more stable."

To her surprise, Dai Yuntian only glanced at it before shaking his head decisively: "Mother, let's leave this soul bone to our eldest or second brother."

Zhu Yun'er was taken aback, her face showing confusion: "Why? Yun'er, this is a top-grade soul bone that is 40,000 years old. Such an opportunity is extremely rare."

Her concern was that her son might miss the opportunity because of his modesty, which is why she called him alone.

Dai Yuntian chuckled softly: "Mother, have you forgotten? I am the heir of the God of Evil. Do you think I would lack a soul bone?"

The main reason is that he doesn't like this soul bone; 40,000 years is too short a time.

Zhu Yun'er suddenly realized, feeling both impressed by her son's ambition and gratified by his maturity.

A meaningful smile crept onto her lips as she deliberately asked, "Oh? In my opinion, should this soul bone be given to your eldest brother, Yueheng, or your second brother, Huabin?"

Without hesitation, Dai Yuntian blurted out, "Give it to Second Brother! Although Second Brother has a cold personality, he has always been very good to his younger brother."

Not to mention, he even gave his wife to him.

At this point, he winked slyly:
"Besides, isn't there another inherited soul bone at home? That one is more suitable for eldest brother. What do you think of this arrangement, Mother?"

Zhu Yun'er was amused by her son's "meticulous planning" and laughed out loud. She affectionately tapped his forehead and said, "You are such a clever little devil! You have arranged everything so clearly. Okay, I'll do as you say."

At this point, her tone suddenly became serious: "In a few days, Mother will get you another Mystic Water Pill, and then we can absorb the second Divine Soul Ring, okay?"

Her main concern was that Dai Yuntian might not be able to resist and secretly absorb a soul ring in the middle of the night.

In that case, if something happens, no one will know.

"Okay, I'll do whatever Mother says!"

Dai Yuntian nodded.

Not to mention that he never intended to absorb a second divinely bestowed soul ring at this time, he also wanted to maximize the lifespan of the soul ring.
