Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 36

Ning rong rongs Pov…

Hmm… i wonder what grandpa bone was doing that he wanted to me to head back first, i hope its not another ȧssassin sent to attack me. I mean that must be really stressful for grandpa, now lets distribute our gains from today. I then looked around the hall for either grandpa sword or father, but it seemed that they were nowhere to be found. However, as i found a few other members who were helping out with the distribution of the newly obtained items. I then stopped one of them and asked, “Have you seen my grandfather, or father.” The member stopped what he was doing and answered with a sincere and courteous tone in his voice, “Lady Ning, i apologize for i have not seen elder chen nor sect leader Ning, i will look for them if you wish.”

“Oh, its alright i will look for them myself, however make sure to distribute the items properly and if there are left overs make sure to put them in the storage room.” I said as i turned around to continue looking for grandpa sword and father. Then i went all the way up towards the elders meeting room to ask them if they have seen father. However, the people i saw were grandpa sword and grandpa bone who were discussing something serious, all i heard though was something concerning me as well. “Are you sure it was that child”, “Yes i am certain of it, he even gave me this to give to…”.

Their conversation suddenly ended without revealing anything else, i then heard grandpa sword clearing his and spoke with a cold tone in his voice saying, “Ning’er have you forgotten that eavesdropping is rude.” I knew immediately that i was caught, and so i came out of hiding with an apologetic look on my face and said, “Sorry, i was just looking for you two, i really didn’t mean to eavesdrop.” My grandpa sword sighed and looked back at grandpa bones and said, “Do you wish to tell her or should i.” Grandpa bone suddenly became serious and shook his head, “No i will.” He then turned to me and said, “Rong rong, i have something to tell you.”

“What!?” I asked with an anxious but curious tone in my voice, Grandfather bone looked at me and said, “Do you remember the person who saved you four years ago.” At that moment everything suddenly stopped and i remembered a dark cloaked person who had saved me when i was younger. “Yes, why?”, “I met him today, after i had sent you home.” I was surprised and asked, “How do you know it was him.” I asked as i did not see the face of the one who saved me 4 years ago.

Grandfather bone made a twisted expression on his face and said, “You see we sort of met him when you were lost in the forest four years ago.”, “You what!!”. He continued speaking and said, “But after meeting him he left me this note to give you.” Grandpa bone then gave me the note and said, “By the way, that boy really likes you, also he is quite good looking but not as good looking as your grandpa.” Strangely at that moment my face reddened and I blushed while asking, “What does he look like and what is his name?”, “I can’t tell you that.”, “What why??”. Grandpa bones then turned around said, “Because he made me promise that he would meet you and he would tell you himself.”

While grandpa bones and i were talking, grandpa sword was still standing behind grandpa bones with an annoyed look on his face. Grandpa sword then interrupted us and said, “Gu rong that does not make a difference, as long as the boy does not prove sufficient strength, his words are nothing more than empty promises.” Grandpa sword then looked back at him and said, “You would not be saying that if you had met him today.”, ” It does not matter, the sect rules must be followed.” I then felt the two releasing a pressure that shook the building but grandpa bone stopped and seemed to have remembered something.

“Oh right, he also said something else today.”, “What?!” Grandpa sword asked as he looked towards grandpa bones. “He said that he would challenge either me or you to prove himself.” Grandpa sword then made a shocked expression and said, “So he knows the rules as well.”, “Apparently he does.” I was so confused by what they were saying that i got up and said, “I don’t know what you guys are even talking about, but it sounds like i am going to marry or be engaged this person when I don’t even know him. I mean he did save my life when i was a child but… but i… i… Huuuhhhh.” I then ran off while screaming as i was now both confused and frustrated at the same time.

Meanwhile…

“Why are you so confident about that boy that makes you think that he can defeat either you or me.” Chen xin said as he looked at Gu rong suspiciously. “The boy has an incredible talent, and he has already gone beyond the spirit ancestor if not more.” Gu rong said while his mind was drifting in thoughts of what oscar told him, “Please tell no one of this even rong rong, i swear at some point i will visit you and learn a few things if you don’t mind.” However, chen xin who was shocked from hearing what he had said could not believe his ears. “Ho… How is that possible, he is only an Auxiliary food support type.”, “I know but that is not the most shocking thing.”

Chen xin was curious and asked, “Then what is?”, “The boy has a double spirit and more secrets which i could not figure out.”

“He has double spirits!?”, chen xin was shocked and wanted to know more. However, before he could, he and gu rong felt a high amount of spirit essence gathering towards the north wing of the sect. More precisely from Ning rong rongs room.

Ning rong rongs Pov…

As I ran into my room and closed the door with a heavy pound in my ċhėst as i held onto the letter and carefully opened it, afraid that i might add too much pressure and destroy it. As i opened the letter and read the contents i saw that it was one which appeared to be normal, but as i continued reading i flushed at what was written. “Ning rong rong, umm i hope that you are doing well….” I then continued reading until the last sentence of the letter which said, “I will wait for you here, however i hope that you will still have feelings for me when we meet.” I then held the letter close to my ċhėst and felt peaceful and happy as i did.

But suddenly the strangest thing happened, the letter which i had held had suddenly disappeared in small particles of light. I panicked and tried to find it, but i could not, i felt saddened and wanted to read the contents of the letter once more. However, suddenly a feeling rose from my ċhėst as i felt my heart pounding harder than before, i then felt a cold sensation coursing from the tip of my hands then throughout my body. I knew immediately what this sensation was as it was none other than spirit essence, i then felt the cold sensation gathering around me even more as i began to float.

Suddenly the sensation became overwhelming but never did it hurt, then the door to my room suddenly bursted with both grandpa sword and bone rushing in to see what was going on. They both said something, however i could not hear due to the amount spirit essence which had gathered around me. As i felt that the sensation itself was too overwhelming, my spirit tool the seven treasured glazed tile pagoda appeared and absorbed all of the spirit essence in my body. My body then stopped floating and fell towards the ground, both grandpa sword and bone rushed towards me and held me to make sure i was ok.

However, as they saw my spirit their expression had changed, it was due to the fact that my seven treasured glazed tile pagoda now had three extra tiles added onto it. “Ning’er tell me what happened here”, Grandpa sword said as he held my hand. I replied saying, “I do not know, but the letter which i had suddenly disappeared and then this happened.” As soon as i said that though grandpa bones started laughing, “Hahahaha.”, “What are you laughing at Gu rong, do you know something about this.” Grandpa sword said as he looked confused as to why grandpa bones was laughing.

“The boy told me that the letter he gave me would help rong rong become stronger, but never did i imagine that it would be like this, hahaha.” Both grandpa sword and i were shocked however grandpa bones was still laughing. “Well that settles it that boy has proven enough to me chen xin.”, Grandfather bone said as he looked towards Grandpa sword. “Interesting”, Grandpa sword said as he looked at my spirit tool once more and then nodded his head while saying, “Hmm… we will see in the future, but for now i will approve.”

“What do you think rong rong.” Grandpa bone said as he looked at me. However, at the moment i was filled with different emotions which were swirling around inside my head. However, hearing what both grandpa sword and bones said i actually felt curious as to what that mans identity was. So even though they had pretty much came to a conclusion of giving him a chance i did not refuse, but surprisingly i felt eager to meet him three years from now.
