Three Upper Sects United as One, Villains Sow Discord

Chapter 318 The Three Upper Sects Are of One Heart × Petty People Sow Discord It must be said that after giving up the comfortable carriage travel, their strength was no longer what it used to be. In addition, with the sustain of the Soul Core, the group returned even faster than they had come.

In just two days, as night fell, the five of them saw the gates of Heaven Dou City.

Because they might need to contact the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect later, Han Li and his group did not conceal their whereabouts. Of course, Qian Daoliu did not show himself directly, otherwise, it might have been a Sisi unfriendly to them.

Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, the group met Qian Renxue.

"Is the matter over there already resolved? That was pretty quick."

Qian Renxue was somewhat surprised to see that there were only a few people and asked.

When she contacted Han Li earlier, he only said that the two sides had already made contact, but she didn't expect him to come back so quickly.

"Okay, we can just wait for news."

Han Li casually replied that he couldn't monitor the space where the Silver Dragon King was for the time being, but Di Tian should have already awakened it; he just didn't know when it would respond.

"What did the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School say?"

Han Li casually found a seat and sat down, looking at Qian Renxue.

She only mentioned this in her message, without giving any specific details.

"Ning Rongrong has come several times these past few days, trying every possible way to find out your whereabouts. After all, nominally, you were invited but there was no public announcement of your departure, so I had to make excuses that I had something to do and would be back soon. I don't know the specifics."

Qian Renxue put down a document and looked at him with a hint of gossip. "What signal did you give them? They didn't even try to hide it from me, the Heaven Dou Emperor, and insisted on contacting you. Recently, the Chamber of Commerce has also been sending people from Ning Fengzhi frequently."

"What else could it be? Of course, it's the Martial Soul, the way to break through the seven-ring limit of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. I mentioned it in the stands during the preliminaries."

Han Li smiled, satisfying her curiosity.

"The Immortal Herb is gone, isn't it? Do you have any other ideas?"

Qian Renxue tilted her head, seemingly recalling the scene at the time when she thought Han Li was just joking.

"Of course there are, there's even one more."

Han Li smiled; the location of the Nine-Colored Goddess's inheritance was now in his hands.

It could be said that the weight was even greater. Although he was unsure whether the other party would still be interested in her given her qualifications, this was not the situation in the original work. Without the intervention of the God of Food God, and with her Martial Soul in a flawed state, the Nine-Colored Goddess might not be willing.

As for the God of Food God's legacy, Oscar is only at level 30-something. Although he has enough talent, his strength is not even up to the threshold. He should just serve under Qian Renxue for now.

"You intend to win them over?"

Qian Renxue pinched the bridge of her nose. She didn't have any ill feelings towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. They had gotten along quite well over the years, so she wasn't opposed to accepting them.

"It still depends on their courage. Would you refuse if the Spirit Hall had another branch?"

Han Li shook his head. Unlike the Clear Sky Hammer, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's Martial Soul was still quite good, but his focus had already shifted, and he no longer had the energy to play house with Ning Fengzhi. As for what would happen, it was up to them to decide.

The opportunity has passed, or rather, it's too late. If it had been a few years earlier, or even just one year earlier, the situation would have been very different. Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

"Then it's up to you."

Qian Renxue said nonchalantly that she had been busy distributing tasks and arranging for the Spirit Hall to gradually replace the original personnel so that she could devote more energy to the God Exam. She didn't want to fall behind.

"Just saying that is enough."

Han Li shrugged. Qian Daoliu had already handed the matter over to him and Qian Renxue, so naturally their decision would take priority.

It seems that neither of them takes it very seriously, but most things don't actually require their personal involvement, so it doesn't really affect anything.

"By the way, let Snake Lance Ci Xue take turns too. Let them try out those God Exam locations. Even if they are only second or third tests, it will be faster than just cultivating."

Han Li remembered something and gave Qian Renxue an instruction.

Those who can cultivate to the Titled Douluo will generally have decent talent and martial Martial Soul. As long as they don't go so far as to participate in completely unrelated assessments, such as the Food God and the Nine-Colored Heavenly Maiden, or Broad Hill participating in the Phoenix God's assessment, given the current attitude of the Divine Realm, there will still be some feedback.

Taking advantage of loopholes isn't shameful.

Qian Renxue nodded. Apart from a few honorees, almost all the titles that originally belonged to the Worship Hall were under his command, so it was time to put it on the agenda.

The titles "Snake Lance" and "Ci Xue," which had accompanied her in hiding for a long time, were naturally more trusted and had priority, but she hadn't realized it yet.

"Alright, I understand. I won't get involved in your affairs with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. With me around, you won't be able to do your thing."

Qian Renxue smiled, for nominally she was still the ruler of the empire.

"Um."

Han Li nodded, chatted for a while longer, then took his leave and returned to his residence. Spending the night in the palace was unacceptable.

Then, after observing Ah Yin's situation, Han Li once again "helped" her by increasing the amount of energy he poured in.

Depending on the situation, it will take at least another week for her to reach the minimum standard. Whether she is willing or not is not even within Han Li's consideration.

The fact that she hasn't chosen to self-destruct yet means she has already made her choice. As the Blue Silver Emperor, Han Li is essentially forcibly helping her fulfill her duties as the emperor of her clan.

For her to sacrifice her life to gain a relatively friendly attitude from Han Li in the future can be considered a righteous act.

If it weren't for the Tang Family family incident, she might have even thanked Han Li.

Of course, Han Li didn't need her thanks.

Nothing was said that night.

When Han Li and his group made their public appearance, intelligence agents headed towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Moreover, Qian Renxue later sent someone to inform them, so there was no need to worry about Ning Fengzhi being unaware.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of Han Li's residence, without any markings on it.

After the carriage came to a stop, three people got off. However, they were all disguised, so it did not seem that they were visiting in public.

It could only be Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong, but their titles had changed, and Gu Rong had taken over Chen Xin's guard duties.

After being ushered into the courtyard by servants, the three put away their black robes and stepped into the front hall.

Han Li was already waiting for them.

After the servants served tea and all left, Han Li looked at the three of them.

"I wonder what business Sovereign Ning has with me?"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Han Li chose to get straight to the point, ignoring Ning Rongrong was constantly searching for Zhu Zhuqing's figure with her eyes.

Ning Fengzhi was slightly taken aback. He had brought Ning Rongrong along with the intention of playing the emotional card and asking questions indirectly, but he did not see Zhu Zhuqing today.

Fortunately, since Han Li asked directly, there was no need for so many roundabout methods.

"To be honest, Holy Son Han, the reason I've come today is to confirm with you whether the matter concerning the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul during the preliminary rounds is true?"

Ning Fengzhi asked the question with composure, but his eyes betrayed a hint of emotion.

He was both expectant and nervous.

Unlike him, Ning Rongrong was much more direct. She stared at Han Li with her big eyes, waiting for his answer.

"Of course it's true."

Under the watchful eyes of the three, Han Li slowly uttered a few words.

"However, Sovereign Ning should also be well aware that this is a major event, especially important for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. What price are you willing to pay?"

"Moreover, even if you could offer a price that would tempt me, why would I tell you? Our relationship is far from harmonious. Haven't you Three Upper Sects always been allies? The remains of the Clear Sky Sect are still warm."

Han Li spoke quite bluntly, even somewhat mercilessly.

But so what? His strength has already been exposed, his previous goals have been achieved, and he even killed the Tang Hao brothers in full view of everyone. Now, in the Douluo Continent, he is the one who needs to be respected.

Well, look at Gu Rong, he's still a little resentful, but he can only endure it.

Hearing his words, Ning Fengzhi did not have much of an emotional reaction. He had anticipated this situation before making the decision.

As the head of a sect, his self-control was excellent; he clearly understood that circumstances were beyond his control.

"Han Shengzi is joking. The claim that the Three Upper Sects are of one mind is just a rumor. It must be that some villains are trying to sow discord between us and the Spirit Hall. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has always been benevolent to others."

Ning Fengzhi said without changing his expression, seemingly unconcerned that these words were most often uttered by him.

"Yes, Sovereign Ning is right. I do need to redefine things; rumors should not be believed."

Since the other party had already criticized themselves, Han Li naturally wouldn't be too aggressive. When it comes to business, you have to give people some room to maneuver.

"Indeed, I wonder what Saint Han desires in order to know?"

Ning Fengzhi, true to his old fox nature, quickly passed the buck back to Han Li, wanting Han Li to set the terms himself.

Han Li smiled inwardly. This guy had done too much business. He wasn't honest.

He didn't speak, but instead turned his gaze to Ning Rongrong beside him, looking at her with amusement, without saying a word.

Ning Rongrong felt a little uneasy. She thought of what her father had told her before she came, and felt some resistance and unease. In short, her mind was a mess.

Beside him, Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up; this was the scene he most wanted to see.

Yes, the cost is minimal, and there's even a profit to be made. Han Li's talent is undeniable. If a child in the future can inherit his talent, regardless of what their Martial Soul is, they will be the ones who profit.

While some were filled with trepidation and others with joy, Han Li averted his gaze.

He took a sip of tea and looked in Ning Fengzhi's direction.

"I am a junior, how could I possibly ask for this? Let Sovereign Ning speak first. You have three chances to exchange information with me."
