Seeing Qian Xunji also present, Ning Fengzhi greeted him with practiced familiarity.
“So it is the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.
Fengzhi pays his respects.” As the saying goes, one does not strike a smiling face.
Qian Xunji also smiled and returned Ning Fengzhi’s greeting.
‘Young Sect Master, this old man cannot sense the specific cultivation level of the middle-aged man beside Qian Xunji, but the Spirit fluctuations of the other two people next to him are extremely unstable, clearly having just undergone a Breakthrough.’ “Moreover, the spirit power fluctuations of those two are actually at the 92nd rank.
Young Sect Master, you should know what this means.” Ning Fengzhi’s guardian, the Fierce Bull Douluo, transmitted his voice secretly.
Following the Fierce Bull Douluo’s indication, Ning Fengzhi looked over.
He had some recollection of Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
According to information sent back by the spies their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had planted within the Spirit Hall, these two were Spirit Douluo bishops of the Spirit Hall, but he never expected them to have advanced to such a level in just these few short years.
Advancing from Spirit Douluo to Titled Douluo, yet not at the 91st rank but the 92nd.
Excluding the possibility of having suppressed one’s own cultivation and not obtaining a spirit ring, it meant either the other party had absorbed a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, or they had absorbed a rather decent Soul Bone.
Ning Fengzhi, who had always regarded the Spirit Hall as the imaginary enemy of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, naturally hoped the situation was the latter.
After all, a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring paired with a hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone would allow the Spirit Hall to cultivate a Super Douluo in a short period.
Such a situation was not good news for the Upper Three Sects.
“It seems the Spirit Hall can add two more Titled Douluo experts.
Your Highness the Saint truly has fortunate luck.” Ning Fengzhi offered his congratulations with words that went against his true feelings.
Seeing this smiling tiger beginning to make his move, Qian Xunji also decided to give him a scare.
“Likewise, I must also congratulate Young Sect Master Ning on the Spirit Douluo under your command whose Spirit is the Bone Dragon, as he is on the verge of a Breakthrough to Titled Douluo.” Qian Xunji wasn’t speaking nonsense.
Although the spies their Spirit Hall had placed within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School hadn’t obtained this information, he, Qian Xunji, possessed the Heavenly Eye.
These matters could be pieced together with just a bit of conjecture.
Gu Rong not following behind Ning Fengzhi on this outing meant there was a high probability he was in seclusion for a Breakthrough.
His loyalty to Ning Fengzhi was unquestionable.
For him to abandon his duty of guarding Ning Fengzhi to enter seclusion, there could only be one possibility.
Ning Fengzhi’s pupils instantly dilated.
The matter concerning Gu Rong was one of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School’s greatest secrets at present.
The Sect’s protection of information was also absolute.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi was filled with killing intent towards the spies sent by other forces within their Sect.
He never imagined such crucial information had been leaked.
One must know, their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was currently in a period of transition.
His father, the current Sect Master Ning Yuanzhi, because he was only a Spirit Saint, was now nearing the end of his lifespan.
There was a risk of him lying on the board at any moment.
Furthermore, the Qi and blood vitality of the other guardian Douluo by his father’s side had also declined to an extreme point.
Currently, within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he merely served as a mascot, unable to undertake long-distance travel.
Once the true situation of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was discerned by the Soul Masters and Sects outside, they would face the danger of annihilation at any time.
This Sect, reputed to be the wealthiest on the entire Douluo Continent, without sufficient combat power to protect it, would be like a child holding a heavy sum of gold swaggering down the street.
Therefore, under Ning Yuanzhi’s instruction, countless precious resources, including but not limited to Spirit Medicine and Soul Bones, were transferred by Ning Fengzhi to Gu Rong.
to assist him in completing the Breakthrough to Titled Douluo.
“Hahaha, Your Highness the Saint truly knows how to joke.
Where in our Sect would there be such Geniuses as you speak of?” Ning Fengzhi attempted to brush it off with a laugh, but Qian Xunji simply smiled without speaking.
For a moment, the atmosphere became as awkward as could be.
Qian Xunji stepped forward, placed a hand on Ning Fengzhi’s shoulder, and spoke to him in a voice only the two of them could hear.
“Young Sect Master Ning, do not forget that your Sect was established by a group of support system Soul Masters.” “It would be best not to be overly active.” After saying this, Qian Xunji paid no mind to Ning Fengzhi’s face, now as black as the bottom of a pot, and turned to leave with the Gold Crocodile Douluo and the others.
“Young Sect Master…
you?” The Fierce Bull Douluo was about to ask something when Ning Fengzhi raised his hand to stop him.
Ning Fengzhi understood the implied meaning in Qian Xunji’s words.
The vast assets of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that others coveted, he, Qian Xunji, also desired.
Now, he was just waiting for Ning Fengzhi to deliver a handle into his hands.
‘It seems the matter of inviting the Seven Kill Sword lineage to join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School must be put on the agenda.’, Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.
In his youth, Gu Rong, while traveling the continent, had befriended the current generation’s successor of the Seven Kill Sword—Chen Xin.
After Gu Rong joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he had also invited the current Sword Douluo, Chen Jianjun, to join their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
They even specially established the position of Supreme Elder to demonstrate the Ning family’s respect for the Seven Kill Sword lineage.
One must know, the current Chen Jianjun was a 97th-rank Super Douluo and had not joined any force.
And his son, Chen Xin, was also a powerful Spirit Douluo.
Such exceptionally talented father and son were naturally objects of eager recruitment by countless forces.
Unfortunately, the two of them were single-mindedly devoted to the Sword Dao, showing no interest in the affairs of the Douluo Continent.
Moreover, in Ning Fengzhi’s vision, once their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School weathered this most difficult period, he would call upon the Upper Three Sects and the Two Great Empires to form an Alliance to jointly crusade against the Spirit Hall.
He had even thought of the slogan: The Upper Three Sects Must Stand United!
Led by that 99th-rank contemporary Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Chen, plus the many powerful Soul Masters from their numerous forces, the Spirit Hall would be nothing but dried bones in a grave!
…
On the other side, Qian Daoliu also encountered his old friend—the first-generation Tang Chen.
“Ho—” “Qian Daoliu, you birdman, not staying properly in your Spirit Hall, what are you doing running around the Star Dou Great Forest?” “What?
Could it be you have twin spirits?
Need to add spirit rings for your second Spirit?” Tang Chen spoke brashly, instantly causing the Clear Sky Sect Disciples he brought to burst into laughter.
Among them was his good son Tang Zhen, the one who would later be angered to death by a rat.
Apart from that, the future Seven Elders of the Clear Sky Sect had all come.
