Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi had just finished breakfast.
Leaning on his cane, he strolled to a secluded courtyard.
He went to visit the Candy Bean Soul Master Shao Xin and the newly joined genius Oscar.
Oscar's matchmaking was going smoothly.
Ning Fengzhi arranged for him to meet suitable young women, all of whom were combat-type Soul Masters.
Candy Bean Soul Master Shao Xin was also living a comfortable life; as a Soul Saint-level support-type, he was a guest of honor wherever he went.
Oscar had finally fulfilled Shao Xin's wish and become his disciple.
After chatting for a few minutes,
Bone Douluo leaned down and whispered something in Ning Fengzhi's ear.
Ning Fengzhi quickly took his leave.
Following Bone Douluo, he strode back to his study.
Ye Qiu and Sword Douluo were already seated, waiting for him.
Ning Fengzhi chuckled,
"Ye Qiu, why are you here so early this time?" "
I wanted to finish talking to Uncle Ning so I could focus on my cultivation,"
Ye Qiu said, rising to his feet and smiling slightly.
"Alright, what are you planning to do? Which of the three families will you target first?"
Ning Fengzhi sat in the main seat, smiling at Ye Qiu.
He had already shown Ye Qiu the information on the four major single-attribute clans.
Ye Qiu pondered for a moment,
then slowly said,
"Uncle Ning, I think we should target the Po clan first. After all, they have the deepest hatred for the Haotian Sect, and they are currently facing the threat of becoming one of the lower four sects."
According to the information Ning Fengzhi provided,
even when they were affiliated with the Haotian Sect, their relationship was relatively distant. This was
because the Po clan kept their clan's medicines extremely secret, which had caused dissatisfaction among the Haotian Sect's higher-ups.
After Tang Hao's defeat and the Haotian Sect's betrayal and subsequent closure of its mountain stronghold,
the Po clan also broke away from the Haotian Sect.
During their retreat, they were ambushed by the Spirit Hall, suffering nearly half their losses and never recovering their strength.
The current patriarch of the Po Clan, Yang Wudi's only son, died tragically in the battle, and his younger brother, Yang Wushuang, was captured by the Spirit Hall.
Although he had already betrayed them and was working for Qian Renxue, Yang Wudi was unaware of this.
This hatred was irreconcilable.
Now, they had fled to a distant land and settled in the Star Luo Empire. They
also had frequent conflicts with one of the lower four of the Seven Sects there.
(The original novel states that one of the lower four sects demanded the Po Clan join them, or they would be razed to the ground, but it didn't specify which one.)
"Pfft, hahaha!"
Just as Ye Qiu finished speaking, Bone Douluo suddenly laughed,
leaving Ye Qiu utterly bewildered.
"Senior Bone, what are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
"Haha. No, no."
Bone Douluo shook his head and laughed,
"It's just that Sword Man and I have already studied this information."
"I originally thought you would target the Min Clan first, after all, I heard that old bird's granddaughter is quite beautiful."
"With your experience in the world of women, you might be able to handle it in no time."
Bone Douluo sat down, patted his knee, and a teasing look flashed across his face.
Several black lines appeared on Ye Qiu's forehead.
This joke wasn't funny at all; he really wasn't good at chasing girls.
He was pursuing Qian Renxue, and she still hadn't given in.
But what Bone Douluo said...
Ye Qiu actually had such thoughts.
The Min Clan, after all, was related to Tang San.
If he wasn't related,
wouldn't he be at a disadvantage from the start?
They were in charge of intelligence work; who would dare use such a suspicious clan?
They might betray him one day.
Becoming Bai He's grandson-in-law was different; he'd just have to reluctantly sacrifice some of his own charm.
"Hmph! You wouldn't actually be thinking about this, would you?"
Sword Douluo sneered.
He rarely participated in scheming and plotting, so he was a little annoyed by Ye Qiu's idea.
"Uh, haha, I... I was also enlightened by Senior Bone."
Ye Qiu chuckled awkwardly.
"You brat, if you want it, just do it. Why drag me into it?"
Bone Douluo was displeased, his smile vanishing.
If his little princess knew he'd found another woman for her man, would he still have any dignity left?
"Haha, Ye Qiu, your worries aren't unreasonable."
Ning Fengzhi
, after Bone Douluo's joke, had the same thought as Ye Qiu.
As the sect leader and a businessman,
he was quite willing to make this kind of exchange; the Min Clan's strategic value was considerable.
He smiled at Ye Qiu.
"If you have the ability, I wouldn't mind having another confidante by your side."
"Fengzhi, how can you say such a thing?"
Sword Douluo frowned, displeased with Ning Fengzhi.
"Uncle Sword, listen to me. You know, compared to Tang San, we are the real outsiders! This is the safest approach."
Ning Fengzhi explained with a smile. It
was just a honey trap; though a small trick, it was very effective.
"Ahem... Uncle Ning, let's get back to the main topic."
Ye Qiu coughed twice.
This Ning Fengzhi was truly shrewd, never making a losing deal.
However, as his son-in-law, the power he received would probably still have to be managed by Ning Fengzhi.
After all, he had no experience whatsoever. His money and land weren't enough to settle such a large group.
Ning Fengzhi smiled wryly:
"The main point, isn't this the main point too? But this still depends on you, and Rongrong's side."
"I won't force you, after all, the sect's business will eventually be handed over to you and Rongrong."
"I understand, Uncle Ning."
"If things really don't work out there, I should have other ways."
Ye Qiu nodded slightly.
He just felt this wasn't quite right.
Although his Sharingan had a strong allure, he hadn't deliberately used it to seduce girls.
Besides, perhaps Yuehua could help him with the Min clan; he could ask her later.
This decision didn't need to be rushed.
Ning Fengzhi put away his teasing expression and said seriously: "Alright, what you said about the Broken Clan does make a lot of sense. So when do you plan to go? Also, what name do you want for your force? Do you need me to accompany you?" Ye Qiu smiled wryly
.
To be honest, he didn't really have much of a foundation.
However, if they were to be recruited under the name of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they might not be happy about it.
After all, they were originally from the Clear Sky Sect, and such a defection would indeed sound very bad.
"The sooner we head to the Broken Clan, the better, since we don't know when Tang San's side will make their move."
"As for the name of the faction..."
Ye Qiu pondered for a moment.
He was really bad at naming things, so he could only borrow a name.
He softly uttered two characters:
"Soul Palace!"
"My faction will be called Soul Palace."
Have a nice day!
