A visit from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect
"It's alright. For everyone's sake, I don't mind suffering a little grievance." Dugu Bo said calmly, but in his heart, he secretly hoped that the other party would cause trouble.
If the other party doesn't take the initiative, where would Dugu Bo find a suitable reason to demand compensation from them?
Dugu Bo is now only one step away from Level 98. He is confident that even if the Sword Bone Douluo join forces, and with the added boost from Ning Fengzhi's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, he can still easily suppress the two of them.
If a conflict were to break out at this moment, it would not be a bad thing for him.
Dugu Bo alone possesses a deterrent power equal to that of the entire Upper Three Sects combined!
As long as Dugu Bo stands firm, no one will dare to harm the Dugu or the Ye Family in the slightest.
Lu Xuan glanced at his master, then looked at Dugu Bo, and suddenly felt that things were probably not as simple as they seemed.
Upper Three Sects are deeply arrogant and may not be willing to sit down for a fair transaction.
Lu Xuan felt that this battle was probably inevitable.
"Grandpa Dugu, let's postpone our departure for now," Lu Xuan advised. "If we go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect together, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan takes the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, Master alone might not be able to withstand it. Conversely, if we go to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect might also launch a covert attack."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded slightly, acknowledging the consideration.
Ye Renxin was ultimately a healing-type Soul Master. Even with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and matching Soul Bone, which greatly enhanced his combat power, he was still no match for a level 95 Titled Douluo in a direct confrontation.
However, after Zhao Yan and Dugu Xin absorb this batch of Soul Bone, their combat power will be close to that of a level 93 Soul Master!
By then, the defenses here will be much more secure, and there will be no need to worry about surprise attacks from external enemies. Even if someone dares to break in, as long as we can hold them off for a few breaths, Lu Xuan can Teleportation teleport me back to provide support.
After listening to Lu Xuan's analysis, Dugu Bo pondered for a moment and finally decided to postpone the trip and patiently wait for the two to complete the Soul Bone.
However, while they planned to wait for the right opportunity, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School did not intend to wait any longer.
Ning Fengzhi had already obtained information from his spies: Dugu Bo had taken a 70,000-year-old Torso Bone to meet Xue Ye to discuss a deal. Although the two parties reached an agreement, Dugu Bo eventually took the Torso Bone back.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is the wealthiest sect in the world, and it has never lacked gold, silver and treasures. However, there is not a single 70,000-year- Torso Bone in the sect.
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi immediately took Gu Rong and set off for the Ye Family Medical Hall.
Ning Fengzhi managed to suppress his greed and decided to try diplomacy first. He cupped his hands and said, "Clan Chief Ye, Your Dugu, I apologize for my intrusion."
Standing beside him, Gu Rong's aura subtly gathered, as if he would immediately take action should the negotiations break down.
"They're here." Lu Xuan heard the noise outside the door and looked up, saying, "Grandpa Dugu, it seems they can't sit still any longer."
"Hmph." Dugu Bo snorted coldly and slowly said, "The Upper Three Sects have always been like this."
The Upper Three Sects ' tactics are the same: wining and dining, beheading, and having their subordinates act as dogs!
Back when Dugu Bo was still Soul Douluo, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan secretly sent someone to invite him, even proposing that Yu Tianheng be engaged to their beloved granddaughter.
At that time, Dugu Bo did waver for a moment, but fortunately he later met Lu Xuan, and the matter was completely dropped.
Ye Renxin's family was in a similar situation. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had never openly suppressed them, their underhanded tactics never ceased.
Fortunately, Ye Renxin was stuck at the early stage of Soul Douluo for a long time, and his granddaughter was about to awaken her Martial Soul, which made the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect temporarily restrain its sharpness and slow down its pace of annexation.
However, this brief respite actually gave the Ye Family an opportunity to turn the tide.
As for the reclusive Clear Sky Sect, their style of doing things is even more domineering, ruthless, and decisive, far surpassing the other two sects.
Countless second-rate sects on the mainland with decent foundations were mostly destroyed by the thunderous iron fist of the Clear Sky Sect.
With the absolute power of their top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, they ran rampant without restraint. Any force that caught their eye either had to submit or be completely wiped out; there was simply no third way.
The Four Single-Attribute Clans, though seemingly renowned, are in reality nothing more than vassals and henchmen acquired by the Clear Sky Sect after its past conquests.
They were subservient to the power of the Clear Sky Sect, living at the mercy of others and subject to their control.
The Strength Clan, in particular, is extremely opportunistic and subservient.
They always followed Tang Hao's lead, obeying his every command without question, showing absolutely no sect spirit or bottom line. Calling them the worst of the worst wouldn't be an exaggeration.
In other words, something happened to the Clear Sky Sect, and it was suppressed by the Spirit Hall and forced to close its mountain.
Despite the heavy casualties suffered by the Four Single-Attribute Clans, they were actually arrogant lackeys just a few years ago.
The news of Dugu Bo's breakthrough to Titled Douluo had already spread throughout the Heaven Dou world, but no one knew his true cultivation level. In everyone's mind, he was just an ordinary Titled Douluo who had just advanced to level 91 or at most level 92, with limited combat power and not worth fearing.
Ning Fengzhi with the Gu Rong tree was clearly a calculated move, a prelude to force, and a declaration of his determination to succeed!
"Master, you can stay in the courtyard to protect everyone." Lu Xuan turned to Ye Renxin and said, "I'll go out with Grandpa Dugu to deal with it; we definitely won't suffer any losses."
"If we can avoid killing, we should try not to use lethal force." Ye Renxin pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "I'm worried that if we make too many enemies, we'll find it difficult to move forward."
They already have a blood feud with the Clear Sky Sect, so adding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect wouldn't be too much for them to handle.
However, if they were to commit massacres here, the Spirit Hall would inevitably seize the opportunity to profit from the situation under the guise of upholding justice.
Therefore, for now, everyone must maintain a semblance of peace. At the very least, any action must be justified!
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo smiled calmly, having already weighed the pros and cons and determined the appropriate course of action.
Let's go.
He raised his hand to signal, and led Lu Xuan out. Although this was the Ye Family Medical Hall, he already regarded himself as an outsider.
Upon reaching the entrance of the clinic, Dugu Bo's gaze fell upon Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong ahead, and he calmly said, "Brother Ye is currently in seclusion, so I will be in charge of entertaining these two distinguished guests today."
"So it's Your Majesty Dugu." Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and bowed respectfully, "We two have taken the liberty of coming here and disturbing you."
The Dugu and the Ye Family have been working together for more than two years, and every sect and family with a bit of influence knows about it. So when they saw Dugu Bo personally come out to meet them, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong were not surprised at all.
As for the young man Lu Xuan standing to the side, the two had also heard rumors about him. It was said that he was a beggar whom Dugu Xin had rescued, Ye Family, seeing his exceptional talent, kept him by their side.
The four of them entered the Ye Family's main hall together. A servant stepped forward, brewed tea for them, and then bowed and withdrew. Although Ning Fengzhi was still thinking about that Soul Bone, he remained calm and unhurriedly exchanged pleasantries with Dugu Bo.
