Imperial City, Qilin City.
This emerging majestic city combines ancient formation patterns with brand-new Soul Guidance Technology, exuding a majestic atmosphere and a sophisticated sense of order everywhere.
The imperial palace is even more majestic, not as beautifully decorated as Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, but more solemn and solemn, like a dormant giant beast, exuding a heart-stopping sense of power.
In the main hall, Ye Zhentian is sitting on the main throne.
He was not wearing a complicated imperial robe, but a simple and elegant outfit, but he had an air of Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi.
His eyes were sharp and deep, as if they could penetrate people's hearts.
Below, Ning Fengzhi stands tall and tall, with a gentle and sincere smile on his face, but deep in his eyes, there is a calmness and determination that has weathered the storm.
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo stand behind them. Their auras are restrained, but they are like two peerless magic weapons, with hidden edge. If they don't move, they will be shaken.
"Sect Master Ning, it's been a hard journey."
Ye Zhentian's voice is calm.
"It is my honor for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to choose me, Qilin Empire, and it is also a blessing for the empire."
Ning Fengzhi bowed slightly, his posture was neither humble nor overbearing.
"Your Majesty is serious."
"Heaven Dou is no longer the place where our clan can settle down and live. Good birds choose trees to roost, and wise ministers choose their masters to work."
"Qilin Empire is determined to innovate and has great potential. Your Majesty has great talents and broad plans. He is indeed a wise master."
"I, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, would like to attach my tail and contribute to the empire."
After saying this, the place fell into silence.
Ye Zhentian did not expect that Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would choose to join Qilin Empire.
You must know that before this, Heaven Dou Empire spent countless efforts and did not let Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect choose to join Heaven Dou Empire directly.
Ning Fengzhi seemed to realize it, his tone paused and his tone became more solemn.
"To show my sincerity and do my best to contribute to the development of the empire, I, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, am willing to donate 50% of the sect's accumulated wealth to the imperial treasury!"
As soon as these words came out, even the Qilin Empire important ministers standing on both sides could not help but feel slightly moved.
Five percent!
Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's reputation as the richest in the world has already spread throughout the mainland.
The value of its accumulated wealth, especially those rare metal resources and Soul Tool technology passed down from generation to generation, is inestimable.
This is by no means just a problem of Gold Soul Coin, it is also a huge supplement of strategic resources!
Ning Fengzhi continued.
"This 50% wealth includes half of the Gold Soul Coin sect's inventory, half of all kinds of rare metal mineral reserves, and... all the Soul Tool drawings, manufacturing technology and core experience accumulated by our sect over the generations, and we are willing to share it with the empire!"
The last sentence is the real punchline.
Soul Tool technology!
This is exactly the direction that Qilin Empire has been focusing on in recent years, and it is also the key to catching up with or even surpassing the established empires.
Although Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's accumulation in this area focuses on assistance and defense, its exquisite design concept and unique production technology have an immeasurable reference and promotion effect on the development of the Qilin Empire and Soul Guidance Technology.
Ye Zhentian's eyes flashed, and he took a deep look at Ning Fengzhi. This Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect leader is indeed worthy of his reputation.
This "letter of submission" cannot be said to be unimportant or inaccurate.
What he took out was exactly what Qilin Empire needed most.
"Okay!"
Ye Zhentian nodded slowly, with a smile of appreciation on his face.
"Sect Master Ning really understands the righteousness and is far-sighted!"
He did not refuse hypocritically. Qilin Empire is in a period of rapid development, and every resource is crucial.
He accepted Ning Fengzhi's "sincerity" and wanted to give enough in return.
"Sect Master Ning trusts the empire so much, and the empire will not treat its meritorious officials badly."
Ye Zhentian stood up, walked to the huge map in the center of the hall, and pointed to an area in the southeast of the imperial capital marked with rich resources.
"This place is located three hundred miles southeast of the imperial capital. The land is fertile, the mineral veins are rich, and the spiritual energy is abundant. It is suitable for your sect to recuperate and rebuild its foundation."
His voice carried the determination and courage of an emperor.
"I have decided to grant Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to this area, which is thousands of miles in radius, to build a new city!"
"This city will be named--Nine Treasure City!"
"All affairs in the city are managed by the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect on their own. The empire does not interfere and enjoys a high degree of autonomy. All you need to do is pay the corresponding taxes in accordance with the laws of the empire."
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is the sect that protects the country of my Qilin Empire."
Ye Zhentian's words were so loud that they echoed in the hall.
Thousands of miles of land were laid out, cities were built with names and a high degree of autonomy.
This kind of reward is not unkind.
This is not only a reward for Ning Fengzhi's donation of wealth, but also a declaration to the entire continent of how much Qilin Empire values and is generous to truly valuable and sincere allies.
Ning Fengzhi felt slightly relieved, with sincere gratitude on his face.
"Your Majesty, Ning Fengzhi, on behalf of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, thank you for your kindness."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo also bowed slightly.
They understood that the sect master made this risky move and made the right move.
Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, in the Qilin Empire, will usher in a new beginning.
The message, as if it had wings, spread across the continent at an astonishing speed.
When Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect moved in as a whole to the Qilin Empire, Ning Fengzhi donated half of his family property, received the seal of "Nine Treasure City", and sent the message back to the Heaven Dou Empire.
"Pfft..."
Xue Ye was reviewing the memorial. When he heard the secret agent's urgent report, he felt a sweetness rush straight into his throat. He could no longer suppress it, and another mouthful of blood spurted out, dyeing the memorial in front of him red.
"Ning! Feng! Zhi!"
He violently swept everything on the desk to the ground. The jade articles were broken into pieces and the memorials were scattered on the floor.
The whole person was like a wounded beast, roaring with extreme anger.
Traitor! Shameless traitor!
How dare he? How dare he!
As soon as the front leg escaped from the nose of the Heaven Dou Empire, the back leg fell into the arms of the Qilin Empire, bringing with it such amazing wealth and crucial Soul Tool technology.
This is betrayal!
Naked betrayal!
It was the most vicious humiliation to him Xue Ye and the entire Heaven Dou Imperial Family.
The so-called "attracting attention" is simply a complete conspiracy.
Ning Fengzhi not only took away the wealth, but also gave all the power of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to the Qilin Empire.
Under the circumstances, Heaven Dou Empire will face a sudden increase in pressure from the Qilin Empire.
"Treason, this is an act of treason."
Xue Ye's eyes were red and looked like crazy.
"Preach my will! Tell it to the world."
His voice was hoarse and distorted, filled with endless hatred.
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, colluded with foreign enemies and betrayed the empire. The crime is unpardonable!"
"From now on, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is a treasonous sect, and anyone who can find it will punish him."
"Seize up, immediately seize all Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's remaining properties, shops, strongholds, and all assets within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, and confiscate all of them."
The decree was quickly passed down, and the empire's machinery began to move.
However, everyone knew that this was just incompetent rage.
The core of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has long been transferred, and what remains in Heaven Dou is just some insignificant empty shells and real estate that is difficult to realize.
This loss is not worth mentioning for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which has already been emptied.
Xue Ye's will has almost no practical effect other than venting his anger to the world and demonstrating his incompetence.
On the contrary, it is more solidified how "wise" Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's choice of "abandoning darkness and turning to light" was.
The majesty of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family has been ruthlessly trampled on in these turmoils, and has almost disappeared.
Xue Ye slumped on the dragon chair, feeling weak and cold as never before.
He seemed to see that the foundation of the empire was crumbling bit by bit.
