Ning Fengzhi's Analysis

This incident has undoubtedly given them hope of winning over the Dragon King Hall.

Now that the Spirit Hall and the Dragon King Hall have clashed, it will be much easier to win over the Dragon King Hall.

And so, these two got together again, discussing Lu Yuan.

"Sect Master Ning, do you think the news coming from the Heaven Dou Imperial City is credible?" Xue Ye asked.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this matter is credible," Ning Fengzhi said.

"Oh? Why? Sect Master Ning, could you please explain this to me?" Xue Ye asked.

"Of course, let me analyze it for Your Majesty."

Ning Fengzhi spoke softly, saying, "First of all, Salas people to buy Longevity Pill. We can understand that. Salas is already old and his lifespan is not long. Under such circumstances, I think he must be interested in the Longevity Pill from the Dragon King Hall. After all, being able to live for another ten or twenty years is a temptation that no one can resist."

"I think the Emperor should understand this point."

Upon hearing this, Xue Ye nodded. His health was poor and his lifespan was running out, so he also longed for the Longevity Pill. Therefore, he could understand Salas's actions.

"The next problem is the price of this Longevity Pill. Since this Longevity Pill has the miraculous effect of prolonging life, its price must be extremely high. Salas is also known for his greed and stinginess. It would be extremely difficult to get him to pay too much for the Longevity Pill. In addition, as one of the four Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall, he has a high status and always acts arrogantly. He doesn't even put the Empire in his eyes."

"Under such circumstances, it's quite normal for the people he sent to use the power of the Spirit Hall to threaten them openly and covertly, since it's very similar to the Spirit Hall's usual style," Ning Fengzhi said.

"That's true." Xue Ye nodded slightly, then suddenly asked, "Sect Master Ning, I have a question. Just how expensive are these Longevity Pills? Even if Salas is stingy, he still went to war with the Dragon King Hall over a few Longevity Pill. Although the Spirit Hall isn't afraid, the Dragon King Hall is still quite powerful. Salas isn't stupid. Does that mean the price of these Longevity Pill is outrageously high?"

Hearing Xue Ye's doubts, Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly and said, "It's not outrageously expensive, but the price is really not cheap. I only managed to purchase ten Longevity Pill because of my relationship with Hall Master of the Dragon King Hall. However, I paid ten million Gold Soul Coin and half a catty of Seven-Colored Glazed Tea in exchange for these ten Longevity Pills."

"And this is a friendly price. You can imagine that the price Salas paid when he bought it must have been much higher, at least two or three million Gold Soul Coin per coin. Does Your Majesty think that Salas, with his stingy personality, would be willing to pay such a price?" Ning Fengzhi asked.

"Of course I wouldn't be willing to part with it. Two or three million Gold Soul Coin would be enough to buy some inferior Soul Bone. A single Longevity Pill is so expensive. Even I, the Emperor, would feel a pang of heartache if I bought several at once. After all, although I possess the Heaven Dou and have a large family and business, my expenses are also high," said Xue Ye.

"Yes, even the Great Emperor felt sorry for him, let alone Salas. Since he didn't want to pay such a high price, it was only natural for him to use the power of the Spirit Hall to threaten him in secret. However, he didn't expect to run into a tough nut to crack, someone who was even more unscrupulous than the Spirit Hall."

"They immediately broke the arm of the man he sent and kicked him out."

"Their actions were so forceful that they showed absolutely no respect for the Spirit Hall."

"And Salas is, after all, Platinum Bishop. He couldn't stand being humiliated like this. He didn't dare to openly fight the Dragon King Hall, but he secretly targeted the Dragon King Hall's transport team. I heard that the Dragon King Hall suffered considerable losses this time. Although there were no deaths, many people were injured, and the value of the lost goods was no less than 20 million Gold Soul Coin," Ning Fengzhi said.

"The Dragon King Hall suffered such great losses?" Xue Ye was somewhat surprised. He thought that only a few carts of goods had been burned, but he did not expect that the loss amounted to 20 million Gold Soul Coin. This was a huge sum of money. To be honest, if he had lost 20 million Gold Soul Coin for no reason, he would have been heartbroken for a long time.

"Yes, otherwise Hall Master Lu wouldn't have sent Dragon Emperor Douluo out to cause a huge scene at the Spirit Saint Hall. I heard that Salas was hung up and beaten black and blue, and Dragon Emperor Douluo even took the equivalent of nearly 20 million Gold Soul Coin from the Spirit Saint Hall's treasury before leaving triumphantly."

Ning Fengzhi said softly.

"Such humiliation, Salas didn't even react?" Xue Ye was a little curious. Given the Spirit Hall's domineering style, why did they just back down?

"It's not that they didn't react, but that they dared not react at all. With an Ultimate Douluo personally issuing a warning, let alone Salas, even the Spirit Hall wouldn't react unless they planned to start a full-scale war."

"Salas originally acted arrogantly because he thought that even if the Dragon King Hall was angry, it would not do anything too extreme. However, he did not expect that the Hall Master of the Dragon King Hall was a person who acted without any scruples. He directly sent the Dragon Emperor Douluo and forcefully slapped Salas in the face. As a result, Salas dared not make a move."

"Because they were in the wrong in this matter, they had no reason to seek revenge, so they had no choice but to stop there. However, the feud between the Dragon King Hall and the Spirit Hall has been established."

"Your Majesty, this will greatly benefit your next move to win over the Dragon King Hall," Ning Fengzhi sighed softly.

"Sect Master Ning is right. This is indeed a great opportunity for us. In fact, I should thank Salas," Xue Ye laughed heartily.

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. He felt that Salas's assist was too timely. After all, Lu Yuan's attitude was not very good, and his view of the Empire was not very good either, so it would be quite difficult to win him over.

However, now the success rate is much higher. For the sake of the Dragon King Hall and to counter the Spirit Hall as an adversary, the possibility of cooperation has greatly increased.

"Oh, by the way, Sect Master Ning, I have another question. I wonder if Sect Master Ning could answer it?" Xue Ye asked.

"Your Majesty, please ask whatever you wish, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge," Ning Fengzhi said.

"It's like this," Xue Ye asked. "I'm very curious why Sect Master Ning is so clear about the casualties and losses of the Dragon King Hall. I knew nothing about this."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly and said, "I know so much because my daughter is currently in the Dragon King Hall, and I learned all this information from her."

"Oh? Miss Ning is in the Dragon King Hall?" Upon hearing this, Xue Ye was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized and his gaze became ambiguous. "Sect Master Ning is truly skilled. However, Miss Ning and Hall Master Lu Yuan are quite a good match. It is possible that soon, Sect Master Ning will have another promising and talented son-in-law."

Hearing Xue Ye's words, Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly and remained silent.
