"That's excellent. At this point, the best news is that there are no unexpected events," Qi Ling said. "Furthermore, I hope Sect Master Ning will provide guidance in business and management. Only through cooperation between Dragon's Glory and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can they achieve better development."
"You don't need to worry about Qi Ling. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suffered heavy losses, it hasn't lost the resources it controlled. As long as we still have those, everything can start over," Ning Fengzhi said.
"There's one more thing, Sect Master Ning," Qi Ling continued, "It concerns Xue Qinghe's ascension to the throne a month from now."
Upon hearing Xue Qinghe's name, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but become serious. He never expected that his former disciple would turn out to be such a person. This incident was no less devastating to Ning Fengzhi than the destruction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School.
" Qi Ling, don't worry. Although Xue Qinghe was once my disciple, he has now committed such an outrageous act, and I will no longer tolerate him," Ning Fengzhi said. "A month from now, we will go to Heaven Dou City with you to thwart Xue Qinghe's plan."
" Sect Master Ning, we must thwart Xue Qinghe's plan, but that's enough for us. I have another matter to ask of you, Sect Master Ning," Qi Ling said. "I hope that in a month, Sect Master Ning, Senior Jian, and Senior Gu will be able to hold off the enemy's attack in Dragon's Glory City."
Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, everyone was immediately startled. Ning Fengzhi hurriedly asked, " Qi Ling, what do you mean by that? Does it mean that someone will attack Dragon's Glory City in a month? Who is it? The Divine Court?"
Qi Ling nodded and said, "That's right, it's the Divine Court."
"But isn't Qian Xunji still absorbing his own power, and Qian Daoliu protecting him? How could they attack at this time?" Ning Fengzhi asked doubtfully.
Ning Rongrong chimed in, "Yes, Qi Ling, didn't you say that the best opportunity for us to deal with Xue Qinghe is precisely because the Divine Court is currently preoccupied? Why are you now saying that the Divine Court will attack us?"
Qi Ling slowly said, "It is precisely because this is the least likely time for the Divine Court Divine Court attack that they are launching their attack!"
Hearing Qi Ling's words, the group was immediately confused. Ning Rongrong asked doubtfully, " Qi Ling, I don't understand, what do you mean?"
Only Ning Fengzhi, seemingly lost in thought, said, "What is real should be feigned, and what is feigned should be real! Surprise attack is the highest principle of tactics. Only what the enemy deems impossible is most likely to succeed!"
"That's right, it's precisely because we all believe that the Divine Court won't attack at this time that we would suffer the greatest losses if they did!" Divine Court Qi Ling said.
"After all, the Divine Court has more than just Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu, and more than one Super Douluo! They could easily launch a surprise attack on us without us even having to lift a finger."
"Of course, in order to achieve a surprise attack, I believe the Divine Court will not send too many people, but rather an elite team to attack undetected!"
"Although Dragon's Glory does indeed have many strong defensive measures, everything in Dragon's Glory is still under construction and cannot withstand such an attack. Therefore, I would like to ask Senior Jian and Senior Gu to stay and protect Dragon's Glory City!"
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo exchanged a glance, then immediately said respectfully to Qi Ling, "In that case, we will certainly do our utmost to protect the peace of Dragon's Glory City!"
Ning Fengzhi then asked, "But Qi Ling, this is just your conjecture. Why are you so sure that the Divine Court will come?"
"Actually, I didn't think the Divine Court would come before. After all, I thought that with Qian Xunji's intelligence, he shouldn't have thought of such a scheme," Qi Ling said.
"But after my brief encounter with Qian Daoliu last time, I immediately realized that he is a cunning and ruthless opponent who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals! There is no means he cannot use! So I am certain that he will not let this opportunity pass."
" Qian Daoliu?" Sword Douluo said slowly. "Indeed, my father once commented on this person: as long as he can win, he is capable of anything."
" Dragon's Glory City is our base, and you could say it's our most important foundation. If we lose Dragon's Glory City, then no matter what achievements we make, it's already a failure," Qi Ling said.
"Therefore, to ensure absolute safety, Sect Master Ning, I will leave you with two more powerful reinforcements to help you defend Dragon's Glory City. Under no circumstances can this place be lost."
"But Qi Ling, with so much power left here, how are we going to defeat Xue Qinghe?" Ning Fengzhi asked worriedly. " Xue Qinghe dared to ascend the throne so ostentatiously; he must have made ample preparations. He is definitely not an easy opponent."
"I am aware of that, Sect Master Ning. Rest assured, I have made full preparations in this regard as well," Qi Ling said. "I have also prepared sufficient forces for the attack on Heaven Dou City."
Seeing that Qi Ling had arranged everything, Ning Fengzhi smiled helplessly and said, "What else can I say? Let's just do as you say, Alliance Leader."
On the way back to the lord's manor, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but ask curiously, " Qi Ling, who are you referring to as a powerful ally? Someone who can be compared to Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Gu must be very strong, right?"
Qi Ling then laughed and said, "Yes, of course they are very strong people, and they are all people you know."
"Huh? Someone I know? Who's that powerful?" Ning Rongrong thought carefully and said, "Could it be... someone from the City That Never Sleepless City?"
Qi Ling exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Rongrong, when did you become so smart? You even guessed that!"
That's right, the powerful reinforcements Qi Ling mentioned were from the City of Sleepless City. Now that Xiao Ye has gone back to obtain her eighth Soul Ring, when she returns, having already advanced to the Soul Douluo, her strength will have made an astonishing breakthrough.
Within the Sleepless City, there is also a Super Douluo, namely Uncle Li. With their help, Dragon's Glory City will undoubtedly be much safer.
So, after more than half a month, Xiao Ye finally returned with the people from Sleepless City, and besides Uncle Li, there was another person that Qi Ling never expected.
" Bei Na? How come you're with Xiao Ye?" Qi Ling asked in surprise, looking at Bei Na who had suddenly arrived with Xiao Ye.
"I've come to help you, Qi Ling!" Bei Na said matter-of-factly. "I heard from Xiao Ye that you seem to have run into some serious trouble! So I came with Xiao Ye. How about that, aren't you touched?"
