Seven Treasure and Blue Lightning formally ally! Yu Xiaogang's fury!

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After reading Li Qingshan's reply, Ning Fengzhi smiled.

The letter mentioned that Yu Yuanzhen had agreed to the request to discuss the alliance in person, and that Li Qingshan and Yu Xiaogang would stay in the clan to wait for him.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin beside him and smiled, "Uncle Jian, I'll trouble you to accompany me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin nodded slightly.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Chen Jianjun's voice came from outside the door. "You're going to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Then this old man will go with you."

"These past few days, I've figured out another variation of a sword move, and I was just thinking of testing it on young friend Li. Since he's not here, there's no point in me staying."

"You might as well go challenge him to a sword duel with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin smiled helplessly. He had seen his father practicing alone in the courtyard last night, so it turned out he was thinking about sparring with Li Qingshan again.

Ning Fengzhi naturally wouldn't refuse. After arranging the affairs within the sect, he set off with Chen Xin and his son for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

A few days later, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Yu Yuanzhen personally came to the mountain gate to greet Ning Fengzhi and his party.

After exchanging greetings, he cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Chen Jianjun and said, "I didn't expect Senior Chen to come as well. I have failed to greet you properly."

Chen Jianjun waved his hand and laughed, "You all talk, I'm here to find someone to duel with."

Yu Yuanzhen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and led the group into the clan.

Inside the reception room.

Li Qingshan was already waiting there.

Ning Fengzhi approached and bowed respectfully to him, saying, "Disciple Ning Fengzhi greets Master."

Looking at the scene before him, Yu Yuanzhen's eyes flickered slightly. Although he knew that the two had a close relationship, he did not expect that Ning Fengzhi had also become Li Qingshan's disciple.

Ning Fengzhi made no attempt to hide anything, frankly stating, "Fengzhi still has many questions about cultivation, but I am grateful to my teacher for accepting me as his disciple."

Yu Yuanzhen nodded, his expression even more intimate than before. Chen Jianjun then went straight to Li Qingshan and whispered:

"After we finish discussing business, you'll have to practice with this old man properly."

Li Qingshan smiled and agreed, then gestured for everyone to take their seats.

After the teacups were served, Yu Yuanzhen took out the letter that Ning Fengzhi had sent earlier.

"As mentioned in Sect Master Ning's letter, I have already discussed this with several elders in my clan. It would be a good thing if the two families could form an alliance and support each other."

"However, some things are better clarified in person."

Ning Fengzhi said solemnly:

"Sect Master Yu, please speak."

Yu Yuanzhen put down the letter and said earnestly:

"If one family gets into a dispute with someone else later, how should the other family help them?"

"Since my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has agreed to the alliance, we will not back down in the face of trouble. However, I cannot simply come to your sect to support you without first understanding the reasons."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi did not feel offended. Instead, he slowly nodded and said, "Sect Master Yu is concerned about is also something Fengzhi needs to consider."

"If one's own disciple causes trouble or does something wrong outside, it is natural to investigate and deal with it appropriately. One cannot use the alliance to demand that another party support him."

"However, if someone abuses their power to oppress or even attacks the sect, both families should respond together."

Yu Yuanzhen nodded slightly after hearing this.

Li Qingshan spoke up from the side:

"In that case, let the two sects start by exchanging information. If the Spirit Hall mobilizes a large number of personnel, both sects will verify the information once they receive it."

Chen Xin nodded slightly and said, "That's a good suggestion. It's much better than us hastily asking for help when others have already arrived at the mountain gate."

Ning Fengzhi then took over the conversation, saying:

"In addition, I would like to select some disciples from within the sect and young Soul Master from noble families to train together."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda excels at amplification, but it needs protection. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon excels at frontal assaults; both are familiar with each other's teamwork, which benefits both."

Yu Yuanzhen for a moment and looked at the elder sitting beside him.

The latter nodded and said, "I think this is a good idea. The younger members of the clan should also learn how to cooperate with support-type Soul Master."

"Then each of you should choose suitable people." Yu Yuanzhen looked at Ning Fengzhi and said seriously, "We'll discuss the specific arrangements in detail later."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and agreed, adding, "As for the affairs within each clan, each clan shall still make its own decisions. Fengzhi has no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the noble clans through this alliance."

Yu Yuanzhen smiled and said, "Since we've come this far, then I have no more reservations."

The two then discussed and agreed on how to pass messages and contact each other in case of trouble, until it was nearly noon before they got up and held each other's hands.

Seeing this, Li Qingshan was completely relieved. In this way, if the Spirit Hall still wanted to harm their people, they would have to think twice.

In the afternoon, Yu Yuanzhen hosted a banquet for everyone.

With the business settled, the atmosphere at the table became much more relaxed.

When the sect elders inquired about Yu Xiaogang's recent cultivation progress, he recounted how Luo Sanpao practiced flying and combat after transforming into a dragon.

Yu Yuanzhen listened attentively, occasionally asking a few more questions.

Ning Fengzhi laughed from the side:

"My senior brother is very meticulous. He explains things carefully when he knows the answers, and he doesn't give a perfunctory answer when he's unsure. That's quite rare."

Yu Xiaogang was a little embarrassed and smiled, "My teacher said that you can ask questions if you don't understand, but you can't teach others haphazardly."

Yu Yuanzhen glanced at Li Qingshan, then looked at his son, his eyes filled with a sense of relief.

The banquet ended.

Chen Jianjun approached Li Qingshan again and challenged him to a sword duel.

Yu Yuanzhen had someone lead them to the open space behind the mountain, and Chen Xin followed. Ning Fengzhi stayed behind to continue discussing the details of their dealings with the clan elders.

Yu Xiaogang originally wanted to go see it too, but as soon as he stepped out of the hall, he was stopped by a disciple of the clan.

"Young master, there is a letter for you."

"Mine?" Yu Xiaogang took the envelope, and his eyes lit up when he saw the handwriting on it.

Bibi Dong?!

He didn't expect that his partner would write to him just a few days after they parted ways.

The boy hurried to the corridor, carefully unsealed the letter, unfolded it, and began to read it silently.

"Xiao Gang, it's like seeing you in person." Upon seeing the familiar handwriting, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but smile.

But as I read line by line, that smile gradually faded.

In the letter, Bibi Dong recounted the questioning she received upon returning to Spirit City, and also mentioned that Qian Xunji had returned from his trip and had become furious because of their interactions.

Only after seeing her get slapped did Yu Xiaogang tighten his grip on the letter.

The girl who kept him company while he cultivated by the river, smiling as she peeled chestnuts for Sanpao, had actually suffered such injustice because of these things?

His gaze lingered on the end of the letter.

"I didn't know who else I could say these things to, so I thought of you."

Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang's throat tightened slightly. After remaining silent for a long time, he carefully folded the letter and immediately turned to head towards the back mountain.
