"Old man?" Hearing Lu Yuan's words, even Ning Fengzhi could not help but twitch his mouth. This kid was probably the first person who dared to call the Snowy Night Emperor 'old man' in such an open manner.
However, Ning Fengzhi immediately let it go when he recalled Lu Yuan's actions at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
This brat had killed a member of the imperial family like Prince Xue Xing without any hesitation. If it weren't for the fact that Qing He had pleaded for Xue Xing and offered the Heaven Dou Empire's Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud as compensation, then Prince Xue Xing would've ceased to exist long ago.
It was perfectly normal for someone like him to call the Snowy Night Emperor old man.
Ning Fengzhi thought that this kid's attitude towards him had improved after a few years. He thought that his personality had changed, but he didn't think that he was still the same as before.
He still had no respect for the Imperial Family. However, he was now the Hall Master of the Dragon King Palace. It was normal for him to have no respect for the Imperial Family. After all, he wouldn't have been able to establish a force like the Dragon King Palace if he didn't have the guts.
Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.
"What's wrong, Uncle Ning? Is there something wrong with calling him old man?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask when he heard the surprise in Ning Fengzhi's voice.
Ning Fengzhi smiled bitterly when he heard this. "Obuchi, he's the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire. It doesn't seem right to call him old man."
Although Ning Fengzhi had always known Lu Yuan's personality, hearing Lu Yuan call him an old man still made Ning Fengzhi feel a little strange. After all, the Snowy Night Emperor was the emperor. If Lu Yuan kept calling him an old man, wouldn't that be a little too embarrassing?
"So what? Even if he's the Emperor, it doesn't change the fact that he's an old man. If I don't call him old man, am I supposed to call him handsome boy? "Lu Yuan shrugged and said with an innocent look on his face.
"Pfft!" Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Ning Rongrong could not help but burst into laughter. Even Zhu Zhuqing, who had a cold expression on her face, could not help but smile slightly. This guy really knew how to cause trouble.
"Cough cough, it's you!" Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This kid looked like a very cold person, but his character was completely different. Sometimes he was high and mighty, and sometimes he was approachable and even humorous.
This was really a mysterious person. It was no wonder that Rong Rong loved him so much. This young man was really special.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk nonsense. Let's get down to business." "Uncle Ning, do you think I should accept Emperor Xue Ye's invitation and work with the imperial family?" Lu Yuan's expression turned serious again. He looked straight at Ning Fengzhi.
Seeing Lu Yuan's serious expression, Ning Fengzhi's expression also turned serious. "From my perspective, I naturally hope you agree to work with Emperor Xue Ye and the imperial family. After all, our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect has always supported the imperial family. In terms of our own interests, the stronger the imperial family, the better it is for us."
"The Dragon King Hall is very famous now, and you have the Dragon Emperor Douluo and the Bright Phoenix Douluo. If you cooperate with the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's reputation will rise to another level. Our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect will be able to benefit from the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's reputation."
"Therefore, I will naturally do my best to facilitate the cooperation between the two of you. In fact, I'm here on behalf of Emperor Xue Ye to persuade you. I hope you can accept Emperor Xue Ye's good intentions and work with him."
Ning Fengzhi looked calmly at Lu Yuan after he finished speaking.
"Haha, Uncle Ning is very frank. I haven't even asked for the details yet, but you're already so clear about your intentions?" Lu Yuan asked with a smile.
"I have no choice but to be frank. After all, you're so smart. Even if I didn't say it, you would've guessed it already. If I were to hide it, it would've made you unhappy. I might as well say it openly. At least it would make me seem more magnanimous." Ning Fengzhi smiled bitterly.
"Haha, Uncle Ning knows me well." Lu Yuan smiled. He didn't comment on Ning Fengzhi's words.
"From your personal perspective, Uncle Ning has chosen to work with us. What about other perspectives?" Lu Yuan asked softly as he looked at Ning Fengzhi.
"Then, from the perspective of the stability of the entire continent, the Martial Soul Palace is very powerful now. They control more than 60% of the soul masters in the world. Furthermore, they've been up to no end in recent years. I'm afraid they're up to no good. A storm is brewing on the entire continent.
"Furthermore, there was news a year ago that even the Vast Heaven Douluo, whose name shook the entire continent, had perished. Although we don't know the exact cause of his death, the Vast Heaven Douluo was very powerful. I'm afraid only the Martial Soul Palace has the ability to kill him. Sigh, the Martial Soul Palace is so powerful. If we don't work together, how are we going to contend against them in the future?"
Ning Fengzhi sighed softly and said.
"Uh …" Lu Yuan faltered upon hearing this, and a strange look appeared on his face. He turned to Ning Fengzhi and asked softly, "Uncle Ning, didn't Rong Rong tell you how the Vast Heaven Douluo died?"
"No. Does Rongrong know how the Vast Heaven Douluo died?" A hint of surprise appeared on Ning Fengzhi's face upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, and he couldn't help but turn to Ning Rongrong.
Being stared at by Ning Fengzhi, Ning Rongrong nodded slightly and said, "I wasn't very clear at first, but when Tang San was unconscious, he said that his father was killed by the Star Ox Python and that he wanted to take revenge. That's how I knew."
"Then why didn't you tell Father?" Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but ask.
"Father, you didn't ask me, so how would I know that you wanted to know?" Ning Rongrong pouted at the sound of Ning Fengzhi's questioning voice, and a hint of indignation appeared in her voice.
Ning Fengzhi's expression faltered slightly upon hearing this. What a powerful reason! He had no response to this.
"Xiao Yuan, can you tell me the ins and outs of the whole thing?" Ning Fengzhi asked as he turned to Lu Yuan. He was very interested in the cause of Tang Hao's death.
The fact that the mighty Vast Heaven Douluo had been killed by the Sky Azure Bull Python was quite interesting, and he was also very curious.
"Of course. I'll have to start from a little rabbit by the name of Xiao Wu …" Lu Yuan began to recount the entire story.
"Tang Hao wanted to obtain that 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit's soul ring and soul bone, which was why he was killed by the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape. He deserved it."
Lu Yuan explained in an indifferent voice.
