Chapter 110 Ning Rongrong sells herself
Chapter 110 Ning Rongrong sells herself
Ever since parting with Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Tianlin has never paid any attention to the affairs of Yu Xiaogang and Shrek Academy.
As soon as he left the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan and arrived at the Thunder Academy, Yu Tianlin handed the short spear he brought back, which was suspected to be the Staff of Judgment, to Yu Tianheng.
As expected, the short spear-like thing turned out to be the Scepter of Judgment.
After being covered in dust for a long time in the Kalk Kingdom, it finally shone brightly as one of the three divine weapons of the Thunder God when it came into the hands of Yu Tianheng, the inheritor of the Thunder God.
That night, the entire Thunder Academy was filled with lightning and thunder. Thousands of thunders echoed throughout the night above the academy, and the purple lightning made the entire night sky as bright as day.
This is a doomsday-like scene, as if the god of thunder has descended to punish all evil.
With the Staff of Judgment in hand, Yu Tianheng instantly gained the power to mobilize natural thunder at will, and at the same time, the energy consumption of performing thunder-type soul skills was reduced by 70%.
In other words, for the same soul skill, he only needs to consume 30% of his soul power to achieve 100% of the previous power.
The Eye of Thor sees through the truth, the Purple Lightning Domain suppresses evil, and the Scepter of Judgment mobilizes thousands of thunders to shatter the darkness with the most domineering power.
Can see, can beat, can catch up.
If the guess is wrong, the final wind and thunder wings will make up for Yu Tianheng's final shortcoming in speed.
Yu Tianheng was extremely excited about this, feeling both happy and worried.
He was happy that his strength had improved a lot, but he was worried that the three tests brought by the Eye of Thunder God had not been completed yet, and Yu Tianlin brought him three more.
With a total of six huge mountains pressing down on his head, Yu Tianheng was almost crying with worry.
In order to complete the assessment as soon as possible, Yu Tianheng, who was already very busy, now has no free time at all. He is either practicing or on the way to practice.
Ever since he gave him the Staff of Judgment, Yu Tianlin hadn't seen Yu Tianheng for several days.
Even Dugu Yan found it difficult to see him. At most, she could say a few words to him when she brought him food.
However, Yu Tianlin was not idle during these few days of free time. In addition to practicing, he also discovered something extremely unexpected.
That is his other cousin Yu Tianxin, whose relationship with Ye Lingling is somewhat unclear.
To be more precise, his cousin would hang around Ye Lingling whenever he had time, talking, chatting, and giving small gifts, and Ye Lingling had no intention of refusing.
Although it was just a hint, it was surprising enough.
Ye Lingling, who was determined to break the Nine-Hearted Begonia's 'curse', actually did not refuse the approach of a man of the same age.
I'm really curious about what unknown secrets there are that could create a connection between these two people who have nothing in common.
Out of curiosity, Yu Tianlin went to Dugu Yan to ask, but in return she just smiled without saying anything and told him to see, think and experience it for himself.
If you ask too many questions, he will say he is still young, single and knows nothing...
Damn it, he's over 30 years old in his past and present lives combined, and you say he's young? That he doesn't understand?
Just ridiculous.
But it is true that I have never been in a relationship, there is really no way to refute this...
"Brother Tianlin, what are you doing here?"
By the quiet and deserted pond, Yu Tianlin was lying bored on a willow tree to enjoy the cool breeze, when suddenly Ning Rongrong's cry came from below.
During these three days, Ning Rongrong kept pestering him no matter what.
Yu Tianlin knew that Ning Fengzhi had probably given her some task.
However, among the five people she knew well, Yu Tianheng was busy practicing to complete the assessment, Dugu Yan was by his side and taking care of his food and daily life, Yu Tianxin and Ye Lingling were playing ambiguously, and the four of them had no time to pay attention to her, a little girl.
Therefore, he became Ning Rongrong's only target.
"Oh, it's Rongrong. What can I do for you?"
Ning Rongrong tilted her head back and smiled, her eyes curved in a cute way as she said, "Brother Tianlin, please teach me how to practice. Rongrong also wants to become as strong as my brothers and sisters."
Yu Tianlin simply glanced downwards and said weakly, "Twelve years old, a level 26 Great Spirit Master. You are already very strong. There is no need to become even stronger."
"Besides, you are a support-type soul master, and I am an offensive-type soul master. We are not in the same system, so I can't teach you."
"Go back and ask your father for advice. He is the best auxiliary spirit master in the world and the god in the eyes of all auxiliary spirit masters. If you don't understand something, just go to him."
Ning Rongrong curled her lips and snorted like a punching bag.
"Brother Tianlin is so annoying. Don't you like Rongrong? You obviously don't treat Zhuqing like that."
"By the way, Brother Tianlin, where is Zhuqing?"
Yu Tianlin's face darkened and he looked at Ning Rongrong with a frown.
"Do you really want to become stronger? Do you want to become as strong as us?"
Ning Rongrong looked delighted and didn't notice the change in Yu Tianlin's attitude at all.
"Brother Tianlin is willing to teach me?"
Yu Tianlin smiled slightly and said, "It's no problem to teach you, but can you afford the price?"
"Or what price can your father pay?"
Ning Rongrong patted her chest confidently, as if she didn't understand what Yu Tianlin meant.
"Brother Tianlin, don't worry. Our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is as wealthy as a nation, and our chambers of commerce are spread across the entire Douluo Continent. As long as you ask, we can find anything for you, even a ten-thousand-year soul bone."
Yu Tianlin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head, "Ning Rongrong, Ning Rongrong, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"
"Why do you think I lack something when you don't lack it yourself?"
"Although our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect is not as wealthy as your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, with our abilities, we can basically get anything that your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect can get."
"Even if it's a ten thousand year old soul bone, it's just a matter of effort for us."
"So, if the price isn't enough, give me some price that I'm interested in."
"Or rather, quote the highest price your father offers you, because once I make a move, what I offer will surely be something that your entire Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect cannot refuse."
Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and straightened her expression.
"Okay, okay, since Brother Tianlin wants to handle things in a businesslike manner, let's talk frankly."
"Yes, Rongrong did come here with a mission. I want to know why you can cultivate so fast."
"Actually, my dad just said to try his best to find out. As long as there's hope, any conditions can be negotiated."
"In other words, there is no upper limit."
"For us in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, any external possessions are not as important as our own strength. We want to improve our own strength as much as possible and break the curse of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Tower that prevents us from breaking through level 79."
"My dad, the elders in our sect, including me, don't want to be stuck at level 79 for the rest of our lives."
"My innate soul power is level nine. If it were any other spirit, combined with the resources of my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, I would definitely become a Titled Douluo." "Unfortunately, my spirit happens to be the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Its flaws completely limit my upper limit."
"I'm not willing to accept it, but I have no choice."
"So I just slack off and have fun as much as I want. I can only cultivate to level 79 anyway, which is easy with my talent. I have so much time left, why should I work so hard?"
"But that day, I met you, and my thoughts changed, completely changed."
"Brother Tianlin, can you imagine how surprised I was when I found out your ages?"
Yu Tianlin nodded: "Well, I can imagine, then what?"
Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, looking at Yu Tianlin with a calm face as if she was stuck, and her heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
"Um, Brother Tianlin, you won't do anything to me, will you?"
Yu Tianlin frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Why do you say that?"
Ning Rongrong let out a long sigh: "Because Zhu Qing wanted to know this secret, she disappeared. And today I also want to know this secret, so I shouldn't disappear."
Yu Tianlin paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed out loud, "Of course not. After all, you are the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, so precious."
"Alright, with your status and position, don't play the victim in front of me. I don't want to listen to those lies."
"Now I can clearly tell you that I have a method to accelerate your cultivation, and I also have a way to help you break the Level 79 curse."
"But, what price can you pay?"
"You only have one chance, think it over carefully!"
Ning Rongrong's pupils shrank slightly and she looked at Yu Tianlin nervously.
She really didn't expect that Yu Tianlin actually admitted it.
According to the negotiation experience of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, if they just guessed, it would inevitably take a long time for both parties to talk, and then they would have to test the other party's bottom line and find out the other party's intentions in the back and forth, and finally get what they need at the lowest cost.
But now Yu Tianlin didn't bother to argue with her at all. He just laid out his cards on the table and only gave her the condition to quote a price once.
Ning Rongrong was stunned. She was caught off guard by Yu Tianlin's straightforwardness. All the words she had prepared beforehand became useless.
What is this? No discussion? A one-time deal? This is not business ethics at all.
What Ning Rongrong didn't know was that although this was not a good business practice, it was actually very reasonable.
Negotiation? Only the weak need to negotiate; the strong only need to use their power to pressure others.
As long as you are strong enough, there is no need to do those roundabout tricks. Just do it in one step. If you can succeed, succeed. If you can't, then don't. If you dare to think about it, I will destroy you directly. At most, you will make a deal with no investment.
Looking at Yu Tianlin's calm eyes, Ning Rongrong felt for the first time that the negotiation pressure could be so great.
"Haven't you thought it through? Well then, let's just say goodbye."
As he spoke, Yu Tianlin turned over, jumped down from the tree, and walked away.
"Myself!" Ning Rongrong shouted loudly.
Yu Tianlin paused, without even turning his head: "What did you say?"
"Myself, my price is myself, this is the highest price I can offer."
Yu Tianlin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, raised his foot and continued to walk forward.
"That's all, it's really all gone. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect doesn't value the talents of its core members as much as outsiders think. Whether it's level seven or level eight, even if I'm level nine, they treat everyone the same."
"Because I can't break through level 79, there's no difference between me and my brothers."
"The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect values only management ability. Only with superior business practices can we earn enough resources to attract powerful individuals to join us. Only with the art of eloquence can our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Spirit become the core of the sect."
"But I can't do that. Apart from my innate ninth-level soul power, I can't compare to my brothers in other aspects."
"Luckily, I'm a girl and my father's youngest child, so he is always more tolerant of me."
"That's how I can rely on acting cute and coquettish to make myself felt around my father, and that's how I can win the affection of Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Gu."
"But I know these are all illusions. Apart from pampering me, they are unwilling to teach me anything about the dark side."
"From then on, I knew that my greatest value was to form a marriage alliance and bring a talented person with excellent qualifications to the sect."
"That's why Dad indulges all my little tempers. Even when I ran away from home out of spite, he didn't even bother to stop me."
"They might even take advantage of the opportunity to plot against me and arrange for someone to guide me thousands of miles away to that Shrek Academy."
"Because he had already found out that there was a talented civilian with excellent qualifications and a clean background."
"Of course, I also know this established fact. Since I have enjoyed the convenience brought by the sect, I am also willing to contribute to the sect."
"But when I arrived there on the first day, my world collapsed."
"Can you believe it? After eliminating all impossibilities, my most likely target is actually that disgusting Ma Hongjun."
"I'm not willing to accept this. I don't want to just accept my fate, and I don't want to spend the rest of my life marrying this brothel bitch."
"Luckily, just when I was struggling with whether to accept my fate and choose that brothel girl, or to withstand the pressure from the sect and choose Oscar, a food-type soul master who has the qualifications to be awarded a title, you appeared."
"You've overturned all my previous beliefs with your unprecedented violent actions. It turns out that possessing power allows you to do whatever you want."
"So, I want to be like you. I also want to see the scenery from a high place. I also want to become a Titled Douluo and become the world's number one auxiliary spirit master, surpassing my father."
"I also want to control my own destiny."
"Brother Tianlin, I admit that I am greedy, but please give me a chance... okay?"
Ning Rongrong's psychological defenses were completely broken. As she watched Yu Tianlin walking further and further away, tears could not stop flowing. She clenched her fists and shouted out the truest thoughts in her heart at the top of her lungs.
Yu Tianlin had stopped at some point, and a quiet, calm voice came from him.
"Your father will be here the day after tomorrow. We'll see you at the negotiation table then. I look forward to your performance and, even more so, your ambitions."
"So, don't lie to me, or you won't be able to bear the consequences..."
After he finished speaking, Yu Tianlin left, but Ning Rongrong sat down on the ground with sweat all over her forehead and back.
She knew she had made the right bet, but the price of success was extremely high.
She sold herself, secretly selling herself without the knowledge of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect...
Rather than being sold by the sect, being forced to be sold by your own father, or being sold to someone you don't like.
It would be better to sell it herself. At least, she doesn’t dislike the person she is facing now.
