"I was only allowed to leave because my grandfather had a past relationship with the Sea God Douluo Poseidon."
When Tang Xiao spoke of Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo, his tone was completely different from nine years ago. There was little respect in his voice, and he did not add the word "senior" after Poseidon's name.
Ning Fengzhi a little regretful upon hearing this. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect couldn't utilize such a valuable training ground. However, Tang Xiao's words made some sense. Was it even possible to obtain such a vast opportunity on someone else's territory without paying any price?
Tang Xiao said, "Sect Master Ning, I have been inquiring about Brother Hao's whereabouts since I returned to the mainland, but I haven't found anything. I would like to ask if you have any information about Brother Hao?"
Ning Fengzhi said, "Brother Tang Xiao, I think you could go to the Shrek Academy in Suotuo City and take a look; there should be some clues there."
Shrek Academy? What a strange name.
Tang Xiao frowned slightly. He had heard that Titled Douluo were fighting in Suotuo City and had gone to observe it, but he had not sensed the aura of the Clear Sky Hammer there. He had been searching for several years but could not find it, which was why he came to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Ning Fengzhi continued, "Go see Brother Tang Xiao; you should be able to get some information there. If you can't find him there either, then you'll have to go to Spirit City. Your sister, Tang Yuehua, is currently in Spirit City. She's opened Moonlight Pavilion, just like she did in Heaven Dou City. However, the Moonlight Pavilion she opened in Heaven Dou City only recruits 100 noble students from the Heaven Dou Empire, while her Moonlight Pavilion in Spirit City recruits 200 noble students from both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire. Presumably, she's being pressured by the Spirit Hall."
Upon hearing that the Spirit Hall was actually oppressing his lovely and sensible younger sister, Tang Xiao clenched his fists tightly, his eyes gradually turning bloodshot. Needless to say, the Spirit Hall had made his sister open the Moonlight Pavilion in order to make money for the Spirit Hall.
He knew all too well just how terrifying his sister's money-making ability was. Every year, 40% of the Clear Sky Sect's income came from the Moonlight Pavilion, which was run by Tang Yuehua. He, his brother Hao, and their father were extremely proud of their sister, who had such a strong money-making ability.
Tang Xiao cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master Ning, the blood debt of the Clear Sky Sect has always weighed on my shoulders. Please forgive me for not being able to stay at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect any longer. I must leave now to find Brother Hao."
"That's natural. We should help the Clear Sky Twin Stars reunite as soon as possible and rebuild the Clear Sky Sect. In this way, our Upper Three Sects will be united and able to fight against the Spirit Hall once again."
As soon as Tang Xiao left, Ning Fengzhi said, "Uncle Gu, how about letting Rongrong stay in the Spirit Hall for a while?"
Bone Douluo said angrily, "Feng Zhi, what are you saying? Aren't you afraid that those wolves in the Spirit Hall will secretly harm Rongrong?"
"Concern leads to confusion, concern leads to confusion, Uncle Bone."
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Uncle Gu, you know that the Spirit Hall has always wanted to recruit our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. If they were to do something underhanded to Rongrong, the Spirit Hall's attempt to recruit our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would never be possible."
"If it were any other direct disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, there would be some danger, but Rongrong is the future sect leader of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The best way to recruit members of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not to do something so foolish. I think the Spirit Hall would never do that."
"Let Rongrong hone her character at the Spirit Hall. This can also be seen as another friendly signal from our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to the Spirit Hall, so that neither side is offended."
After hearing the final words, Bone Douluo understood Ning Fengzhi's meaning. The blood feud between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect was irreconcilable. Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, the two stars of the Clear Sky Sect, were probably nothing in the eyes of the Spirit Hall, but behind them was Tang Chen, whose fate was still uncertain, and Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo, who controlled a superior cultivation ground.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect couldn't afford to offend either of these two parties, so it could only hedge its bets and send goodwill signals to both in order to protect itself.
Leaving aside the outcome of the blood feud between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect, Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were not worried at all about whether Ning Rongrong might be bewitched by the Spirit Hall and lead the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to join the Spirit Hall in the future.
Anyone with even a modicum of family or sect consciousness would not voluntarily lead their family to seek refuge with another sect unless the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was truly on the verge of collapse and had nowhere else to turn. Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, grew up eating the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect 'Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect delicacies and being pampered like a star by the entire school.
Suotuo City, Shrek Academy.
After half a month of recuperation, Tang San ate so much Recovery Big Sausage and Sugar Bean that he was almost sick of it, and even developed cavities. His injuries from having his External Soul Bone removed finally healed.
Dai Mubai's injuries had long since healed. Unlike Tang San, who had a piece of bone removed from his body, Dai Mubai's injuries were caused by the cutting off of flesh growing outside his body. As long as the bleeding was stopped and the feathers were inserted, with the recovery power of Soul Master, plus the Recovery Sausage and Sugar Bean, he would be able to move freely again in two or three days.
However, before Dai Mubai became a god and rebuilt his physical body, he was no longer a complete man, and even when going to the toilet, he had to be half a head shorter.
Yu Xiaogang did not hide in some corner of the continent with the Shrek Seven Devils as previously agreed. After all, the plan had failed. If the Spirit Hall wanted to kill them at that time, it would be useless for them to run away. It was better to remain unchanged and deal with all changes.
After Dai Mubai and Tang San recovered from their injuries, Flender once again organized the Shrek Seven Devils to go to Suotuo City for Soul Fighting every night. The defeat they suffered at the Spirit Hall had shattered their confidence and morale, and they had no choice but to make up for it with other victories.
However, due to the loss of Ning Rongrong's powerful Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Fighting Martial Soul's support ability, the Shrek Seven Devils team faces a significantly increased difficulty in winning battles. Tang San sometimes even has to use his Tang Sect Hidden Weapon to turn the tide of battle for the team.
As for Tang Hao, ever since he had his arm severed by Qian Daoliu and was slapped away, he hasn't returned to the Shrek Academy. Nobody knows where he's gone.
Whether it was out of worry or not, he lost an arm, which was his most precious right arm. His Soul Bone, and his cultivation level plummeted by ten levels, leaving him with less than three-tenths of his original strength. Taking advantage of his weakened state, Bibi Dong seized the opportunity to take revenge.
Bibi Dong, after fleeing, hid somewhere for several days before returning to the Shrek Academy. She devoted herself to seclusion, cultivating and meditating to improve her strength, hoping to defeat Bibi Zhu and reveal the truth to Qian Renxue: Bibi Zhu was an imposter!
As for Bibi Zhu's matter, she didn't tell Yu Xiaogang much. How could she tell him? Was she supposed to tell Yu Xiaogang that she had been violated by that beast Qian Xunji, that her body had been defiled, and that she had conceived an illegitimate child?
