With the cultivation resources provided by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Qin Yuan has now broken through to level sixty and urgently needs a soul ring to advance to Spirit Emperor.

His talent is not top-tier. Before obtaining immortal herbs, such a breakthrough speed at the Soul King realm was already rare.

In the past, he had a team of about twenty people. For the Fifth Soul Ring, even hunting a twenty-thousand-year soul beast, success was possible with sufficient preparation beforehand.

Now, only Chen Ze remains by his side, and he has not recruited anyone else.

Chen Ze is only a high-level Soul Ancestor; how can he help him hunt souls?

Because he is absorbing a soul ring across levels, the year limit of his Sixth Soul Ring reaches the year limit of other soul masters' Seventh Soul Rings.

Without the help of a Spirit Saint expert, his Sixth Soul Ring will likely have to wait for a long time.

Just as he was looking troubled, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect sent an invitation.

"Mr. Qin, the Sect Master invites you tonight for a private meeting in the top-floor private room of the Heaven Dou Grand Hotel. Please arrive promptly."

If he could get the help of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, his Sixth Soul Ring would surely be secured.

But he knew deeply that the future development trend of this region was too closely tied to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and they would surely be seen as a thorn in the side by Martial Soul Hall in the future.

He couldn't withstand Bibi Dong's pressure. Besides, he also wanted to earn some money from Martial Soul Hall.

As for Ning Fengzhi's invitation, he still had to go.

After all, he had promised to guide Ning Rongrong onto the right path, and he hadn't received the generous gifts Ning Fengzhi had promised.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi's study.

"Rongrong's current cheerful and motivated personality owes a lot to Qin Yuan's help. Sect Master, you must thank him properly," Sword Dao Chenxin said softly.

Beside him, Bone Douluo had a strange expression and frowned, "I say, Old Sword, how many times have you praised that kid these past two years? Anyone who didn't know would think he was your son!"

"I must remind you, his martial soul is a saber, which has some gap compared to sword-type martial souls. Even if you want to pass on your legacy, you can't just find anyone randomly."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Regardless, Rongrong's changes are evident for all to see. I, Ning, always keep my word, and the benefits promised must not be less."

He paused, then took out a document from his desk drawer. "Uncle Jian, Uncle Bone, there's something I think we can discuss."

The document stated that a mining cart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had gone missing. According to the report from the local city lord's mansion, a cart full of Gem Raw Material was most likely hijacked by nearby bandits.

"Fengzhi, when did this happen? Daring to attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's convoy, I think they're tired of living!" Gu Rong said indignantly, with a strong urge to chase after them and take revenge.

Ning Fengzhi sighed, "That batch of Gem Raw Material had an unsavory origin, and the vehicle was not marked with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's insignia."

"I obtained this report from Qinghe. Currently, the outside world does not know that the batch of gems is related to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Chen Xin picked up the conversation, "Old Bone, the Sect Master means that this matter has nothing to do with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but the disciples cannot die in vain. We need to seek justice for them, but it cannot be someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Gu Rong said repeatedly, "Please ask that kid to make a move?"

Ning Fengzhi tapped his fingers lightly on the table, saying, "The disciple pulling the carriage has the cultivation of a high-level Soul King. If Qin Yuan has not reached the Spirit Emperor cultivation, we will have to find someone else."

"If he has the strength, we will naturally consider him first."

They saw Qin Yuan's efforts for Ning Rongrong.

Most importantly, Qin Yuan acted with propriety. He neither exploited Ning Rongrong for profit, nor charged extra fees beyond the commission. He also did not act recklessly under the banner of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Such a person was indeed suitable to work for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Chen Xin was slightly dissatisfied, "If that's the case, we won't be able to recruit him into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in a short time. Fengzhi, why don't you reconsider? He has many secrets. If he is willing to hand them over to the sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can attract more battle soul masters in the future."

Ning Fengzhi, as the Sect Master, was no ordinary person.

Even if Qin Yuan handed over the method of absorbing spirit rings across levels, how many people in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could achieve it?

In private, Ning Fengzhi had not failed to seek out scholars across the continent.

The conclusion reached was: with the help of heavenly treasures, there was a certain degree of feasibility, but the requirements for the soul master himself were extremely high.

"Uncle Jian, I know your thoughts, but Qin Yuan is not the type to be subservient. Maintaining the existing cooperative relationship is enough. Don't break this thin veil."

"Also, some matters can be exchanged for benefits. There's no need to force him to join the sect."

That evening, Heaven Dou Grand Hotel.

The top floor of the hotel consisted of private rooms.

For extreme privacy, Ning Fengzhi booked the entire top floor to prevent the contents of the conversation tonight from leaking.

When Qin Yuan arrived, he was led into the hotel through a back door by a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and entered the top floor through an internal passage, attracting almost no attention.

Inside the private room on the top floor, Ning Fengzhi did not have to wait long.

Seeing Qin Yuan appear, he stepped forward with a smile, "Brother Qin Yuan, seeing you is better than hearing about you. You are indeed as Miss Rongrong said, dignified and extraordinary."

Qin Yuan shook hands with him and replied with a smile, "Sect Master Ning flatters me. I am grateful for Miss Rongrong's regard."

After some pleasantries, both parties were seated.

Sword Douluo stood behind Ning Fengzhi with his arms crossed.

He was merely a "guard" and did not participate in the subsequent discussion.

"Is this Senior Sword Douluo?" Qin Yuan had only known of the other's existence from books, but had never met him and didn't know his identity.

Chen Xin nodded slightly, remaining silent, not intending to interrupt Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi chuckled and moved closer to Qin Yuan.

He took out a Soul Tool from his embrace and placed it on the table. "As I said, Ning will prepare a small gift for Brother Qin. However, I've been busy with affairs recently and haven't had the time."

"I heard from Rongrong that you don't have a Soul Tool yet. Consider this one an extra gift, and a token of my sincerity."

"Thank you, Sect Master Ning." Qin Yuan didn't stand on ceremony.

Ning Fengzhi shook his head. "No, no, no, it is I who should thank you. Without your guidance, Rongrong's studies might not have gotten on the right track, and this is what you deserve."

Taking the Soul Tool, Qin Yuan's spiritual power delved into it.

He couldn't help but marvel at Ning Fengzhi's generosity.

Inside, besides tens of thousands of Gold Soul Coins, a vast amount of gems, there were also abundant cultivation resources, enough for Qin Yuan to cultivate for a long time.

Ning Fengzhi was like a parent, constantly asking Qin Yuan about Ning Rongrong's studies and life by his side.

They chatted for a long time. Seeing that Ning Fengzhi hadn't ordered the food yet, Qin Yuan knew he had other important matters to discuss.

Ordering food after discussing business was a tacit understanding at the dining table.

Ning Fengzhi was Qin Yuan's biggest benefactor so far. When making money, one naturally had to go along with the other party's intentions.

Before long, Ning Fengzhi brought up the main topic. "Brother Qin, I have a matter that requires your assistance, but it is very dangerous, and you must at least possess Spirit Emperor strength. Are you willing?"

The main business had arrived.

Qin Yuan smiled inwardly.
