This Child Is the Dragon Among Men! Currently Hidden Dragon in the Abyss
"Lin Xiao, do you think this dress looks good?"
"It looks good."
"Then I'll buy it! Let's match it with a pair of White Shoes."
Ye Lingling was in the dazzling shopping mall, her eyes like a scanner, always able to find the best-looking clothes among the various colors and styles.
She looked at the White Shoes on the shoe rack.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up.
"Found them! These look good!"
"Lin Xiao, help me get the clothes!"
Lin Xiao took the clothes.
Ye Lingling sat on the soft chair, took off her Blue Cloth Embroidered Shoes, revealing a pair of small feet wrapped in pure white cotton socks. The cotton socks clearly had no patterns, but they gave people a cute feeling, perhaps because of their small shape and soft curves.
Her feet are really small.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
So small that they seemed to fit entirely in his mouth.
"Hehe, Lin Xiao, help me put them on!"
Ye Lingling kicked her legs, her soft feet almost touching Lin Xiao's nose, faintly carrying a hint of fragrance, somewhat similar to the scent of the Kirin Tulip.
Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and said with disdain:
"No way, they're sour!"
Ye Lingling was stunned, only then realizing that Lin Xiao was saying her feet were sour. Her face suddenly turned pink with shame, and she silently retracted her feet, her fair hands fidgeting with the corner of her skirt.
Had she really gotten sour after shopping for so long?
She hesitated for a moment and lowered her head to sniff.
There was no sour smell... Her body already had a pleasant scent, and after taking the Immortal Herb, she exuded a floral fragrance from the inside out, like a flower fairy.
Suddenly, she heard Lin Xiao's loud laughter.
And Dugu Yan's exasperated voice.
"Ling Ling, you big dummy, you actually went to smell them!"
"Lin Xiao is obviously tricking you!"
Ye Lingling's face turned from pink with shame to crimson, like a cooked shrimp. She hid her feet under her skirt as if electrocuted, and then looked at Lin Xiao with shame and indignation, righteously indignant:
"Lin Xiao, you're asking for it!"
"I really want to stuff my feet in your mouth!"
After a commotion, the three walked out of the shopping mall.
...
In the distant Scenic Pavilion, a refined middle-aged man, accompanied by an old man with white hair and a straight figure, was gazing at Lin Xiao from afar.
"Uncle Sword, what do you think?"
Chen Xin, as a Titled Douluo, had excellent eyesight.
He had been observing Lin Xiao ever since he walked out of the mall, and he hadn't spoken for a long time, which made Ning Fengzhi somewhat curious.
Sword Douluo revealed a look of surprise.
"A prodigy!"
"His bones are heavy and his spirit is cold, his divine aura is restrained, and his bones are extraordinary. He is simply a good material for practicing swords!"
"It's a pity his Martial Soul is a phoenix!"
Chen Xin truly had a desire to nurture talent.
He carefully scrutinized and observed for a long time.
Lin Xiao's posture while walking, although seemingly casual, had a steady rhythm, standing like a pine, sitting like a bell, every move seemed to carry a natural nobility.
If Chen Xin wasn't mistaken, this was a skill only acquired after becoming a Titled Douluo, shedding the mortal body and returning to one's innate state.
Lin Xiao naturally couldn't be a Titled Douluo.
Then it could only be innate!
Such a person could easily control their body, and before becoming a Titled Douluo, they would have an inborn combat instinct, making them extremely difficult for opponents of the same rank.
Even, Chen Xin felt that Lin Xiao possessed Sword Bone!
He would definitely be a master at swordsmanship!
However...
Chen Xin's view was both right and wrong.
It was true that Lin Xiao's bones were unique, but they were reconstructed after being repeatedly destroyed in the Evil Fire Body Tempering.
Not only his bones, but his muscles, skin, and cells were all reborn in destruction, constantly approaching perfection.
In addition to the subtle transformation of the Five Animal Frolics and Eight Section Brocade...
This gave Lin Xiao a natural demeanor.
He carried an innate nobility.
Even his daily actions, which were clearly ordinary, gave people a sense of beauty and harmony, and unlike acquired etiquette, it was completely natural.
In battle, it was even more terrifying.
His resistance to beatings, reaction speed, and recovery ability... would all be stronger than Soul Masters of the same rank!
Chen Xin sighed, "Just by looking at this child's walking posture, I can imagine him holding a long sword, man and sword as one, an invincible force within three feet."
The more Ning Fengzhi heard, the more unpleasant it became.
What did it matter to him if Lin Xiao had good talent?
He was someone else's child anyway! Ning Fengzhi said gloomily:
"I see that this child has extremely good relationships with Dugu Bo's granddaughter and the Ye Family Head's daughter, I'm afraid he won't be willing to accept my invitation."
Ahem.
Ning Fengzhi originally didn't plan to poach anyone.
But after listening to Sword Douluo's judgment, he suddenly felt a little shaken.
Hiss, Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Qingxian, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, although they were not easy to provoke, he could still provoke them by gritting his teeth...
Could Ye Qingxian compare to the wealthy Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? Could Dugu Bo be a match for Super Douluo Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo? As long as Lin Xiao was willing to come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi could bear all the anger of Ye Qingxian and Dugu Bo! But the problem was that he was afraid that the person wouldn't be willing! At that time, Ye Qingxian and Dugu Bo would be irreconcilable with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Lin Xiao might superficially submit, but deep down he would resent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Wouldn't Ning Fengzhi be ruining a good hand?
Sword Douluo comforted:
"Sect Master, being able to discover such a genius when he is young and bet on him in advance is already a great fortune, nothing else can be forced."
Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly.
He quickly figured it out.
In any case, betting now was a sure win.
He, Ning Fengzhi, was the dignified Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and no matter how high Lin Xiao's talent was, he was only a seven-year-old child at this time, could he not handle Lin Xiao and gain his favor? Just you wait, little one, the ways of the world are deep!
He had plenty of open schemes!
Moreover, although Lin Xiao had nothing to do with him now, who could guarantee that they couldn't establish a close relationship in the future? There was still plenty of time...
"This child is a dragon among men, now is the time when he is hiding in the abyss, not yet transformed into a dragon, the earlier you bet, the greater the return, I am satisfied."
These words were false.
After all, Ning Fengzhi still had some face, he was embarrassed to tell Sword Douluo his idea of trying to secretly poach him, and prepared to do it secretly.
Satisfied?
Merchants only want to maximize profits, and will only settle for the next best thing if they really have no other choice, just to build a good relationship.
"Sect Master, shall we test this child's character again?"
Sword Douluo was regretful that Lin Xiao had found a home.
With his upright Sword Bone, he couldn't bring himself to poach someone else's talent, but in the end, he was eager to see just how high the other party's talent and disposition were...
Ning Fengzhi laughed heartily.
"Good! Uncle Sword, let's go and see!"
"If he only has amazing talent, but his character is unteachable, he's nothing more than a chicken disguised as a phoenix! I wouldn't think much of him!"
