The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Wanted to Join the Northern Underworld
"Yes, Father!"
Tang San nodded, his eyes more determined than ever before.
"Go for it, mistress!"
Yu Xiaogang, who was standing nearby, also began to encourage the other person, but soon he also fainted again.
There's nothing we can do; this guy is just too weak. His physical abilities are even worse than a support character's. Even if he breaks through level 30, his strength remains the same.
The Heaven Dou Empire's coastal border fortress.
"Any movement from those people in the Douluo Continent?"
Xi Zhao looked at the distant ocean, where a shadow was gradually approaching – that was the Northern Underworld Continent.
At this moment, the distance between Douluo and Northern Underworld is getting closer and closer, which also means that the time to invade Douluo Continent is about to arrive.
Not long ago, reinforcements from the Northern Underworld Continent arrived, and the original garrison was replaced by the Northern Underworld army.
Countless defensive and offensive Soul Tool placed on the fortress, transforming it into a massive, indestructible steel fortress.
"Report! According to the scouts, Douluo has dispatched experts from the Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and various sects."
Zhou Tan immediately spread out the letters in his hand; these were all records of information gathered by his scouts.
"Among them, there are four Titled Douluo: Demon Bear Douluo and Ghost Leopard Douluo from the Spirit Hall."
Sword Douluo Chen Xin of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
And Yu Yuanzhen, the Thunder Douluo of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
After reading the list, Zhou Tan put away the letter. "Although there are four titled individuals, they are not a threat. These Douluo are far from being a match for you, sir."
"That's natural."
Bei Ming Feng, standing to the side, confidently crossed his arms. "We've all witnessed Lord Xi Zhao's strength. Even Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo combined couldn't last two moves. These guys will suffer the same fate."
"I didn't expect Yu Yuanzhen to come too."
Of all these titles, there was only one that west Zhao cared about the most: Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen.
It's not that he's particularly strong, but rather that he's Yu Xiaogang's father, a fact that can be exploited.
"We can use him to lure Yu Xiaogang out."
Xi Zhao thought to himself, the original meaning is that others can be let go, but Yu Xiaogang and the others must be captured and treated well.
"Oh, sir, there's one more thing."
Zhou Tan took out a letter from his pocket, on which was a striking seven-tiered pagoda pattern. "This letter is from the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School in the Douluo Continent."
Xi Zhao took the letter, somewhat puzzled. Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect —was it Ning Fengzhi? Why would he write a letter?
Opening the letter and quickly skimming its contents, Xi Zhao suddenly realized: Was this an invitation to join the Northern Underworld Empire?
Indeed, in the extremely primitive society of the Douluo Continent, it is far too unfriendly to support-type Soul Master.
Unlike the Northern Underworld Continent, which possesses Soul Tool technology, even if one's own combat strength is weak, it can be compensated for by external forces.
"If that's the case, then we'll go see him."
Xi Zhao handed the letter to Zhou Tan, who read it carefully and then asked, "Could it be a trap?"
"It's alright, they can't cause any big trouble."
Xi Zhao calmly waved his hand, dismissing all the petty tricks as mere illusions; he would simply crush them with sheer force.
"Pass on my order: no one is to act rashly; await my command."
"Yes!"
Zhou Tan crossed his arms, turned and left.
"Sect Leader, are we really going to act tonight?"
At this moment, in Ning Fengzhi's tent, Sword Douluo Chen Xin was discussing matters with him.
"If you want to show sincerity, the sooner the better."
Ning Fengzhi sat upright in his chair, his expression calm. "I just received a message that Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall has set off for here to personally resist the Northern Underworld Empire."
If we don't act now, it will be much harder to hide our actions from the Spirit Hall once Bibi Dong arrives."
"Oh well."
Sword Douluo Chen Xin nodded, then couldn't help but ask, "Feng Zhi, are you really sure you want to talk to the Northern Underworld Empire?"
"Um."
Ning Fengzhi lowered his head and softly replied, "Uncle Jian, you are the one who knows our sect's situation best."
"The Clear Sky Sect is closed off, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is facing a talent shortage, and our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is currently the most glorious of the Upper Three Sects, but all of this is just an illusion."
Ning Fengzhi a wry smile. As the owner of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, he knew his family's strengths and weaknesses better than anyone else.
"To put it bluntly, Uncle Jian, without you and Uncle Gu, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would have been divided up long ago. If you weren't here..."
"Yes."
Chen Xin did not shy away from this. "Old Gu and I are both Titled Douluo above level 95. Although we have a lifespan of a hundred years, we will eventually die one day."
The inner disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are all members of the Ning family. Once Lao Gu and I die, the sect will become an empty treasure trove full of gold and gems, and everyone will want to get involved.
You support-type Soul Master who lack combat abilities will definitely be seen as a thorn in the side of the continent.
That's also a concern of mine.
Ning Fengzhi nodded. "That's why I was so excited when I heard that the Northern Underworld Empire possessed a defensive Soul Tool."
We don't lack offensive capabilities; on the contrary, offensive capabilities are a last resort. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda needs strong defensive capabilities.
Ning Fengzhi out and summoned his Martial Soul, a seven-colored glazed pagoda that shimmered faintly in the tent. "After all, the most important thing about our Martial Soul is their support ability; attack is secondary. As long as it works, that's enough."
However, if we have sufficient defensive capabilities, it will increase our chances of survival on the battlefield, which will be invaluable for both escaping and providing more precise support.
"I see."
"Alright, it's getting late, let's hurry up and get going without disturbing the others."
Ning Fengzhi out of the tent and, together with Chen Xin, made their way towards the hidden path they had previously explored.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two of them finally arrived at the foot of the Seaside Fortress.
On the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city turned on the Soul Tool Screen in front of them, and countless monitors were pointed at the area below.
"Who goes there? This is a forbidden area of the fortress; entry is prohibited!"
The soldier's stern voice came from the Soul Tool below.
Seeing that the other party possessed such advanced technology, Ning Fengzhi was also very curious, but now was not the time to ask questions.
"My name is Ning Fengzhi. I wish to request an audience with the general garrisoning this place; I have important matters to discuss."
Upon hearing that the other party was Ning Fengzhi, Zhou Tan, who had been waiting there for a long time, finally stood up, pressed the switch, and the city gate slowly opened.
"My master has been waiting for quite some time, Sect Master Ning, please come in."
Looking at these high-level items that are almost non-existent in the Douluo Continent, Ning Fengzhi felt even more that this trip was well worth it.
