"In that case, Sect Master Ning, have you considered abandoning the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School's location, preserving our strength, and then fighting the Spirit Hall again in the future?" Qi Ling said.
"After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's greatest strength lies in its support capabilities. It would be unwise to confront the Spirit Hall head-on like the Clear Sky Sect. It would be better to temporarily avoid a direct confrontation and make plans when the time is right."
Ning Fengzhi listened to Qi Ling's words and slowly shook his head, saying, " Qi Ling, I have also considered your suggestion. Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Empire once made this suggestion: as long as we protect our people, we will have a chance to rise again one day."
"How can we abandon our sect's thousand-year-old foundation and flee the city after being threatened by the enemy? How can we face our ancestors? How can we face the millions of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members?"
"This is our hometown. Many people have lived here since birth and have never even left. To watch helplessly as invaders invade and destroy everything they have is more painful than killing them."
" The Clear Sky Sect's approach is indeed a way to preserve the clan, but if everyone were like the Clear Sky Sect, fleeing without a fight as soon as the Spirit Hall issues a declaration of war, wouldn't that mean the Spirit Hall could easily take over the world?"
Hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, Tang San lowered his head slightly. Although he knew that Ning Fengzhi did not mean to criticize the Clear Sky Sect, he did not expect that the Clear Sky Sect, the number one sect in the world, would be less principled than a group of Support System Soul Master.
Admittedly, the Clear Sky Sect's actions were not unreasonable, and the situation was different back then. At that time, the Spirit Hall only wanted to cause some trouble for the Clear Sky Sect, but now, they are clearly going to make enemies of the world.
At this moment, Qi Ling couldn't help but sigh and said, "Alas, what a pity. If the other two major sects could join forces with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Spirit Hall wouldn't dare to be so arrogant."
"That's out of the question, Qi Ling. Sects have their own rules, and the scenario you described is simply impossible," Ning Fengzhi said. "Unless all three major sects are wiped out, there's absolutely no way the disciples of the various families could join forces."
"So, Sect Master Ning, you've made up your mind to stay here and fight the Spirit Hall to the death?" Qi Ling asked. "Have you considered leaving some offerings for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"
"This was certainly something we considered, so I've gathered all the children in the family together to prepare to send them to a safe place," Ning Fengzhi said. " Uncle Jian went out specifically for this matter."
"Has Senior Chen Xin found the place yet?" Qi Ling asked.
"Not yet. At this time, no power is willing to risk provoking the Spirit Hall to take in the children of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School," Ning Fengzhi said. "The only one willing is the Heaven Dou Empire, but I cannot send them to the Heaven Dou Empire, otherwise, the name 'Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ' will truly cease to exist in the future."
Qi Ling then said, " Sect Master Ning, if you trust me, I'm willing to let the children of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect take refuge in my territory! And I guarantee I will never force them. Rongrong will make all the decisions for them in the future. Are you willing?"
Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, Ning Fengzhi exclaimed happily, " Qi Ling, you really want to take them in? That's wonderful! With that, our biggest worry is gone!"
But at this moment, Bone Douluo spoke up, "Sect Master, do you trust this kid that much? He's the future of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! Are you just going to hand him over like this?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, " Uncle Gu, I may not have many other skills, but I am confident in my ability to judge people. I believe in Qi Ling; he will never let us down."
"And more importantly, Rongrong trusts him too, right?"
Ning Rongrong nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, Grandpa Gu, Qi Ling can definitely do these things, I believe in him!"
Bone Douluo sighed helplessly, "Since you and your daughter both say so, what can I do? Jian Lan, you believe in this kid too, right?"
Jian Lan smiled and said, "Of course."
"Thank you so much, Qi Ling. Your actions are the greatest help you can give to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!" Ning Fengzhi said. "Now we have no worries, and we can show the Spirit Hall the backbone of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Qi Ling looked at Ning Fengzhi's resolute expression and laughed, saying, " Sect Master Ning, you're speaking too soon. Why do you think we're bound to lose?"
Ning Fengzhi was taken aback and said, "But the Spirit Hall controls half of the Soul Master on the continent. In a direct confrontation, we have absolutely no chance of winning!"
"If it were a one-on-one fight, perhaps that would be possible, but Sect Master Ning, don't forget, this is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!" Qi Ling laughed, "On our territory, everything is different!"
Looking at the confident Qi Ling, Ning Fengzhi was immediately puzzled. "Who is the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you or me?"
" Qi Ling, what do you mean by this?" Ning Fengzhi asked, puzzled.
" Sect Master Ning, I only have one question for you," Qi Ling said, "Is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect truly prepared to pay the ultimate price and sacrifice everything for victory in this battle?"
Ning Fengzhi affirmed, "Of course! Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect still upholds the principle of 'better to be shattered jade than whole tile'!"
"Alright! Since that's the case, Sect Master Ning, I can assure you here that while the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may not be the victor in this war, the Spirit Hall will definitely not win either!" Qi Ling said.
Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, Ning Fengzhi asked in surprise, " Qi Ling, do you have some kind of plan?"
"Of course there is, but I can only tell you about this plan," Qi Ling said. "No one else can know. Including Rongrong, Xiao San, Senior Gu, and Jian Lan."
Ning Rongrong said with dissatisfaction, "What? Qi Ling, are you afraid we'll leak the plan? I'm not that kind of person!"
"Haha, how could that be? I know what kind of person you are, Rongrong," Qi Ling laughed. "But this matter can only be known by Sect Master Ning and me."
Seeing Qi Ling say this, the others had no choice but to leave for the time being, leaving only Qi Ling and Ning Fengzhi in the room.
After everyone had left, Qi Ling used the Xuanyuan Sword Realm to block out all sound with sword energy, ensuring that no third person would hear the plan.
"What exactly is the plan, Qi Ling? Why are you making it so mysterious?" Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but ask curiously. He also wanted to know what other methods Qi Ling could possibly use to turn the tide now.
