Ning Fengzhi decided he would try it himself when he got back.
Wasn't it just managing Rongrong? How difficult could it be! He just wanted to observe how Lin Xiao trained his daughter properly, and also to reassure himself. After all, seeing his daughter being trained like a dog by someone else, every father would find it hard to suppress the urge to kill!
After listening to Ning Fengzhi's request, Lin Xiao nodded.
"I can understand, it's the heart of a parent."
...
"Ning Rongrong, do you remember the principles of conduct I taught you?"
"I remember!"
"What are they?"
"Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself."
Lin Xiao was teaching Ning Rongrong, while Ning Fengzhi was hidden in the shadows. After hearing these eight words, he chewed them over carefully in his heart, feeling that they contained profound meaning.
It sounded simple, but it was not easy to do.
"Then tell me, what do these words mean?"
Ning Rongrong answered crisply, "It means to put yourself in other people's shoes, and don't force things you don't like on others."
Lin Xiao nodded slightly, patiently guiding her:
"Actually, the most important things here are 'equality' and 'respect'. Treating others equally, just like cherishing yourself, is the greatest respect."
"Rongrong, your status is very noble. You are the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and your father is Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. But that doesn't mean you can be superior to others. Anyone who is superior will eventually suffer a backlash."
"Understanding equality is even more noble."
"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Only those who can bear the humiliation of a country are true kings; only those who can bow down to the common people are qualified princesses."
After spending some time together, Lin Xiao finally knew what Ning Rongrong lacked in her education—family education.
He didn't say anything too profound to Ning Rongrong.
But he couldn't say anything too shallow either.
He hoped that under his training, Ning Rongrong would transform from the arrogant young lady in the original story, the little fairy who thought she was superior to others, into a girl who knew how to respect others.
This also gave Lin Xiao a sense of satisfaction in education.
Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo in the shadows both showed strange looks in their eyes. At Lin Xiao's age, with such talent, how could he have such profound thoughts?
It was really strange.
In the Douluo Continent, where the law of the jungle prevailed and Soul Masters were respected.
Lin Xiao was simply a freak! But it had to be said that this kid was very charming, with a kind of "unsullied by mud" cleanliness.
"Uncle Sword, I couldn't help but investigate his past."
"I found that in Soto City, where Lin Xiao originally grew up, there was also a little fatty with the same Martial Soul as him, and the two were once friends."
"That little fatty had Innate Soul Power of level nine, and his Martial Soul was also the Evil Fire Phoenix. I was overjoyed, thinking that if I could get a low-profile version of Lin Xiao and cultivate him, I would definitely reap great rewards in the future, but..."
Speaking of this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but sigh.
"But what?"
Sword Douluo's appetite was piqued by Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi sighed:
"However, I specially sent people to observe for a period of time, but I was greatly disappointed. That little fatty with the same Martial Soul as Lin Xiao was completely controlled by the Evil Fire. Whenever the Evil Fire surged, he would use this as an excuse to ask his teacher for money, frequenting brothels; even when the Evil Fire had not erupted, he would indulge in carnal pleasures, indulging in sensual entertainment."
"Even if his talent is acceptable, his temperament is too poor. He and Lin Xiao are simply two extremes, as different as clouds and mud."
Sword Douluo roughly understood.
But there was still one thing he didn't understand.
"Evil Fire? What is this thing? Does Lin Xiao have it too?"
Ning Fengzhi concisely explained, then said, "This also proves from another angle that he is consistent in word and deed. He would rather endure the danger of the Evil Fire Phoenix's Evil Fire erupting than choose to trample on a woman's dignity, never violating his own heart. That's why I feel relieved to entrust Rongrong to him."
Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, his gaze lingering on the greatly changed Ning Rongrong.
He thought to himself:
"Rongrong, your father has already created an opportunity for you."
"You have to be useful."
"If we have such a son-in-law, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely devote the power of the entire school to cultivate and protect him, and we can be worry-free for the next hundred years!"
Sword Douluo sighed softly.
Ning Fengzhi asked curiously, "Uncle Sword, why do you sigh?"
Sword Douluo said painfully through voice transmission:
"I hate that this child is not my disciple!"
Sword Douluo has a principle: he must only accept disciples with Sword Martial Souls.
But Lin Xiao is so outstanding that he is willing to make an exception.
"That Dugu Bo has always been aloof and doesn't have a good appearance. His green eyes make him look fierce and abnormal. How can he compare to my Sword Bone's awe-inspiring presence? It's just that he's lucky. Otherwise, if we competed on the same stage, this Lin Xiao would definitely become my disciple."
Sword Douluo was a little jealous and couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"Hmm?"
A sudden voice.
Startled both Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo.
Looking back, Dugu Bo in the distance was looking at them with an unfriendly expression.
Dugu Bo was very unhappy.
Folks, who understands? I just came to see my granddaughter, but I ran into two jealous guys. The wretched and thieving look on their faces clearly showed that they wanted to poach talent, and they were even criticizing my image behind my back?
If he didn't recognize the people in front of him as Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo would have already taken action.
Sword Douluo said with a guilty conscience:
"Just joking."
Dugu Bo sneered:
"Sword Douluo, you claim to be the number one swordsman in the world, but I haven't heard of you having a decent disciple? Or are you simply incapable of teaching disciples, afraid of misleading them?"
Sword Douluo said angrily:
"Lin Xiao is indeed outstanding, but what does that have to do with you? You're a poison user, and he's a fire user. What have you taught him?!"
"However, Lin Xiao is my disciple."
Sword Douluo's voice became more and more annoyed.
"Am I wrong? You are naturally aloof, indifferent, and lack human touch. Isn't my image more approachable than yours?"
"Lin Xiao is my disciple."
Sword Douluo said in exasperation:
"Tell me, what makes you qualified to be Lin Xiao's teacher?!"
"Lin Xiao is my disciple."
Sword Douluo's mentality broke.
He turned around with a flick of his sleeve, without saying a word.
Ning Fengzhi: "..."
After all, they were in the wrong first, so he explained:
"I came to Ye Residence today after informing the Ye Family Head in advance. I simply wanted to see Rongrong, and what Uncle Sword said just now was all in anger..."
"Lin Xiao is my disciple."
Ning Fengzhi couldn't keep a straight face anymore.
Was Dugu Bo sick in the head? No matter what was said, he had to add "Lin Xiao is my disciple," as if he was afraid that they wouldn't know! Dugu Bo said in a cold voice:
"If you really have the ability to poach him, this old man will admit defeat; if you don't have that ability, and you're still spreading rumors behind my back, this old man despises such petty people!"
"I imagine that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Sect Master, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, is nothing more than a name!"
After speaking, Dugu Bo flicked his sleeves and left.
Leaving behind the speechless Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo, who was holding back a bellyful of anger.
