Chapter 6 Ning Rongrong

Li Xun's heart stirred.

Only he and Aunt Xue lived in this place.

Even if Ning Fengzhi and the others arrive, Aunt Xue will go ahead and inform him.

There's only one person who can bypass Aunt Xue and knock directly on his door.

"Come in," Li Xun said softly with a smile.

I heard a sound.

The door opened a crack.

A tiny head peeked into the room through the crack.

"Brother Li Xun, I've come to visit you!"

A voice, tinged with timidity yet also with a hint of joy, came from the crack in the door.

"Have you finished your morning lessons yet?" Li Xun teased.

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up and she quickly said, "I'm done, I'm done! Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone even praised me."

"Go ask them if you don't believe me."

Li Xun rolled his eyes at her. Through these few days of getting to know Ning Rongrong, he had come to understand her personality.

This girl has a good personality; she's a bit quirky and clever, but she hasn't been spoiled into being willful and capricious.

She's just a normal six-year-old girl.

"Did the teacher send you to find me?"

Li Xun watched as Ning Rongrong slowly moved closer to him.

"No, I came here by myself."

"Brother Li Xun, I heard from Father that you might one day reach the level of Grandpa Sword. Will you protect me then?"

Ning Rongrong moved closer to Li Xun, tilted her little face up, and looked at him with a pleading expression.

"Probably, we'll see how you perform then."

Li Xun looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile: "If your cultivation is too weak to assist me in the future, and I can't beat others, then I'll have to leave you behind and run away first."

Ning Rongrong possesses innate level nine soul power, which, in terms of talent, has already surpassed 99.9% of the world's soul masters.

He was just spoiled from a young age and couldn't endure hardship.

This is why, when she joined Shrek Academy, her soul power was one level lower than Zhu Zhuqing, who had a seventh-level innate soul power.

Although support-type Soul Masters cultivate slowly, it is also related to her carefree attitude.

"But I still have Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone, they will protect me."

She seemed to be angered by Li Xun's words.

Ning Rongrong's face changed from a flattering expression to a huff as she spoke.

"They will also experience birth, aging, sickness and death; they won't always be there to shield you from the wind and rain."

"If you don't cultivate diligently now, when we encounter powerful enemies in the future and need your assistance, you won't be able to help because your cultivation level is insufficient."

"What should we do?"

Li Xun's words were like a thorn, piercing Ning Rongrong's heart. Her face, which had been puffed up with anger, turned slightly pale.

Li Xun just wanted to provoke Ning Rongrong and make her work harder in her cultivation.

Seeing that her expression was off, he quickly comforted her, saying, "If you start cultivating diligently from now on, this kind of thing won't happen."

"At that time, we may still have to rely on Rongrong's help."

"Yes! Rongrong will work hard in her training, and I'll help you all when the time comes."

After listening to Li Xun's words of comfort, Ning Rongrong's face gradually returned to normal, and she spoke with a determined expression.

"You have to keep your word."

Seeing Ning Rongrong's expression, Li Xun couldn't help but say something.

"Rongrong keeps her word. You can check it out if you don't believe me."

Seeing that Li Xun seemed somewhat skeptical, Ning Rongrong raised her head and spoke loudly.

"Alright, I'll start supervising your cultivation from today. I'll talk to the teacher in a bit, so you can't cheat."

"Not today, I've already finished my morning classes. I'll start tomorrow."

Upon hearing that Li Xun would supervise her cultivation today, Ning Rongrong quickly waved her hand.

"Tomorrow is fine too, I'll give you a day off."

Li Xun nodded. Changing a person requires a long-term commitment; it's not something that can be accomplished overnight.

Even if he supervises her in the future, he won't be so strict; he will only subtly change Ning Rongrong.

"Is there anything else?"

Seeing that Ning Rongrong was fidgeting with her hands after he finished speaking, Li Xun asked in confusion.

"Brother Li Xun, I promise you, I will cultivate diligently."

Upon hearing Li Xun's question, Ning Rongrong's face lit up with a fawning smile: "Could I take a look at your second martial soul?"

Is the true intention revealed at the last minute?

Li Xun was taken aback, then revealed a strange smile: "Rongrong! I can show you my martial spirit, but don't forget what we agreed on earlier!"

After saying that, he handed the kunai to Ning Rongrong.

"Rongrong, you must continue to cultivate diligently while I'm away."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

I'll check when I get back.

Li Xun stood on Sword Douluo's flying sword and waved the branch in his hand at Ning Rongrong, who was looking excited below.

"Understood, Grandpa Jian, you should take him and set off now."

Ning Rongrong instinctively covered her buttocks with her hand.

"Haha, alright, Grandpa Jian won't bother our little princess any longer."

Chen Xin glanced at Ning Rongrong with a smile, then ascended into the sky on his sword.

Li Xun's purpose in this trip is to obtain his first spirit ring.

His body had recovered several days ago, but the reason he had delayed until now was to research a suitable soul beast for him.

Sunset Forest.

Located near Tiandou City, this area is rich in high-level soul beasts and is extremely dangerous.

With the cultivation level of a Sword Douluo, carrying Li Xun on his sword, they arrived here from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in one hour.

As a powerful Title Douluo.

Chen Xin carried Li Xun without stopping, speeding directly into the Sunset Forest.

Perhaps it was because Chen Xin, the Title Douluo, had such an overwhelming aura that Li Xun looked down from his flying sword.

Soul beasts could be seen running around in the forest from time to time. Occasionally, a soul beast would look up and then quickly lower its head when it saw the flying sword in the sky, pretending that it had not been seen.

"There's a silver spruce tree right here."

"The silver branch is nearly sixty years old. Judging from its age, it should be between five and six hundred years old. Xiao Xun, are you really willing to take such a risk?"

Sword Douluo slowly stopped his flying sword.

Upon hearing this, Li Xun looked down and saw a cedar tree in the forest, its silver branches gleaming and laden with fruit.

They had two goals for this trip: the Sapindus mukorossi tree and the Silver Spruce tree.

These two types of tree-like spirit beasts are not aggressive, and their fruits are nutritious, providing a good supply and demand relationship for the ecological chain.

It has few natural enemies, so it is quite common.

"Grandpa Sword, the Silver Spruce Tree has a mild nature, it should be fine."

"Moreover, this tree produces hundreds of thousands of seeds each time, so as my first soul ring, the benefits will definitely be the highest."

Li Xun looked at Sword Douluo with a serious expression.

"Alright then! I'll make the first move, and you can finish the job." Sword Douluo sighed softly upon hearing this.

The members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School all advised Li Xun against choosing a soul beast that was too old as his first soul ring.

As a person with twin martial souls, Li Xun's status in their eyes is second only to Ning Rongrong.

Even with a steady and methodical approach to cultivation, a genius like this is guaranteed to become a Title Douluo at the very least.

They couldn't understand why Li Xun was working so hard.

Sword Douluo slowly descended on his flying sword. During the descent, he joined two fingers together and unleashed two sword energies that shot straight towards the Silver Spruce Tree.

The sword energy was as fast as a shooting star, and in the blink of an eye, it swept across the spruce tree, its trunk, and its roots.

The tree, which originally required five or six people to encircle, swayed like a candle flame after being struck.

Perhaps knowing that their lives were coming to an end, the fruits on the silver spruce trees burst open en masse, with hundreds of thousands of seeds shooting out rapidly in all directions.
