A day later.
Tang Chen led part of the Clear Sky Sect's Elder Council and attacked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect directly.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Tang Chen!... Cough, cough, cough! You! Are you out of your mind?! The Upper Three Sects are allied. If you came to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as a guest, I would have nothing to say, but why are you attacking us?" Ning Fengzhi truly could not understand why Tang Chen had come after them.
Could he be here for Bibi Dong too? But that doesn't make sense. If he truly wanted Bibi Dong, they shouldn't have attacked directly. They should have found an opportunity to locate Bibi Dong and secretly taken her away.
After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the Clear Sky Sect were collectively known as the Upper Three Sects. They were among the strongest forces on the entire Douluo Continent, and united, they could even contend against the two great empires.
It could be said that there were certain rules among the Upper Three Sects. To ensure harmony and cooperation between sects, some rules could not be casually broken.
For example, if they knew about Bibi Dong's future, that meant Tang Chen had also been reborn, or that a reborn person from the Clear Sky Sect had told him about Bibi Dong's future.
So, they could find a way to seize Bibi Dong and bring her to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, using some method to control her. But they could not do it so openly.
That would be insane! Spirit Hall was incredibly powerful now, far stronger than before. At this point, Spirit Hall had reached the peak of its history. No sect could stand against Spirit Hall alone; even the two great empires together were no match for it.
Therefore, even if there were conflicts of interest between sects at a time like this, they could not be resolved through such retaliatory measures. Otherwise, it would destroy their shared unity of interests.
But Tang Chen had directly attacked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Was that something a normal person would do?
Did they not even want to keep it secret?
Ning Fengzhi was genuinely speechless. He had no idea why Tang Chen was doing this and could find no reason for it. Acting so openly would only give Spirit Hall an opportunity to drive a wedge between them.
Why was the Clear Sky Sect acting so brazenly?
"Ning Fengzhi, let me make this clear: you are nothing more than dogs of the Tang Family. All of you Upper Three Sects are nothing more than dogs of the Tang Family. Just obediently cooperate with us in dealing with Spirit Hall.
"As long as you hand over Bibi Dong, we can spare you. You only need to obediently serve as our pawns."
"You!" Ning Fengzhi could not believe Tang Chen dared to say such things. They were all major figures in the soul master world—could such words really be spoken so openly? Calling the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect dogs of the Clear Sky Sect—was that something he could just say out loud? So brazenly?
"Tang Chen, aren't you afraid that I will reveal this and make everyone unwilling to cooperate with your Clear Sky Sect?"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin was also severely injured. Facing the various techniques of Tang Chen, who possessed the world's number one Tool Martial Soul, Chen Xin was indeed formidable. However, this was a level 99 Limit Douluo. And anyone who could reach level 99 was certainly no weakling, especially someone bearing the title Invincible on Land.
Tang Chen was no weakling at all. With his years of combat experience and skill, Tang Chen was in no way inferior to Sword Douluo.
This Sword Douluo was now covered in severe wounds. Both his legs had especially been broken, and he had none of his usual combat strength left. At most, Sword Douluo could now exert the strength of a level 91 Titled Douluo.
"Do you think I need to worry? If you dare reveal it, I will immediately attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and wipe out your sect. I will do it openly. I am a Limit Douluo—no one dares oppose what I say. Besides, no one on the continent wants Spirit Hall to grow stronger and harm their interests, so they will not turn against us just because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is destroyed.
"In their eyes, it would not matter if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were destroyed. After all, your Seven Treasure Sect has also encroached upon the interests of others.
"Who knows how many forces are waiting for you to fall so they can feast on your flesh? You should surrender obediently now and hand over Bibi Dong. That way, I can leave you a way out. Otherwise, you will not even be qualified to be our dogs!"
After saying this, Tang Chen unleashed his powerful Soul Power and suppressed the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The corpses of many fallen sect experts, even those at the Soul Emperor and Soul Sage levels, exploded.
Several Spirit Douluo experts formed a barrier out of Soul Power, protecting the weaker members.
"Tang Chen!!!... You win. I will hand over Bibi Dong, but you must not set your sights on our Seven Treasure Sect again!" Ning Fengzhi chose to give up resisting. The disparity in strength was simply too great. A level 99 Limit Douluo was far too much stronger than a level 95 Bone Douluo and a level 96 Sword Douluo.
This was the gap between level 99 powerhouses. He had witnessed such a gap before, when facing Bibi Dong, the Rakshasa God who had reached level 100 and become a god. The difference in strength had been too immense; they had not been opponents at all.
The sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could only choose to surrender and hand over Bibi Dong.
"What are you talking about? You are our most loyal dogs. Remember to offer us tribute every day."
"You!" Ning Fengzhi could not believe that even an elder of the Clear Sky Sect dared to speak like this.
"If you dare reveal this, bear the consequences yourself."
"..." Ning Fengzhi was deeply unwilling. He gripped his cane so tightly that his force increased considerably. He simply could not believe that the Clear Sky Sect was this domineering.
Just because level 99 Tang Chen had returned, they no longer regarded the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as worthy of notice.
Soon afterward, Bibi Dong was brought out.
"Hahahahahaha! Ning Fengzhi! This is the retribution your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect deserves! This is the retribution you should receive! I was perfectly fine, yet you captured me and made me bear children. This is your retribution! I will expose you!"
"Bibi Dong, obediently return to the Clear Sky Sect with us now. Otherwise, you will suffer."
The Clear Sky Sect's Third Elder spoke at this moment.
"You! What do you mean?" Bibi Dong realized what the Clear Sky Sect intended. They probably wanted to use her to bear children with exceptional talent as well.
"You can only come with us now. Otherwise, bear the consequences yourself."
"You... you win!" In the end, Bibi Dong followed the people from the Clear Sky Sect away.
"Clear Sky Sect, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will not let this go!"
