Turmoil 2
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
After reading the letter sent by Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed with sharp light. He chuckled softly and said:
"It seems Wang Li's talent has already alarmed the Spirit Hall. Salas made a move to test him. Not only did he fail, but after Qinghe resolved the situation, he instead gained Wang Li's gratitude."
After Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, Gu Rong showed great interest and asked:
"Salas has also met Wang Li?"
Ning Fengzhi replied with a smile:
"That's right. Wang Li and Dugu Yan entered Heaven Dou City today, and he couldn't wait to test him. He used soul power pressure on Wang Li, trying to force him to go to the Spirit Hall. In my opinion, this was more of a test,to see whether Wang Li is truly, as the intelligence claims, a forty-first-level Soul Ancestor at the age of twelve."
As his words fell, the other Titled Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, could not help but speak in a deep voice:
"If it were me, I wouldn't believe it either. That on this continent there could truly be a genius who becomes a Soul Ancestor at the age of twelve. Even Old Bone and I did not achieve such accomplishments in our youth."
Ning Fengzhi said calmly:
"But he has appeared. Bone Uncle and I saw it with our own eyes. His age is correct,twelve years old. His soul power is correct,level forty-one. According to the intelligence, both his third and fourth soul rings exceed the normal safe absorption range. Therefore, even with a Blue Silver Grass martial soul, he was able to suppress Yu Tianheng's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul."
Gu Rong leaned forward and exclaimed in amazement:
"That old poisoner truly dared to take such a risk. He said that under his high-pressure methods, Wang Li endured and thus achieved such astonishing cultivation speed. This kind of training method is far too dangerous. If the pressure is too light, it won't be effective. If it's too heavy, Wang Li's life would have been ruined."
Ning Fengzhi seemed to think of something and suddenly laughed before saying:
"Bone Uncle, Sword Uncle, I think I can guess part of the reason. If a bad boy with ill intentions tried to approach Rongrong, would you be able to tolerate it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xin's sword intent surged, and Gu Rong's aura soared to the heavens.
Chen Xin spoke coldly:
"If someone wants to become Rongrong's partner, he must first pass my test,and that certainly won't be easy."
Gu Rong grinned ferociously:
"I understand now. If this Wang Li hadn't endured it and died, then so be it. Only by surviving could he become the grandson-in-law acknowledged by that old poisoner!"
Even Ning Fengzhi had to take a few steps back because of their overwhelming sword intent and aura. With a bitter smile, he said:
"Bone Uncle, Sword Uncle, calm down. I was only making a hypothetical example. Let's return to business. Qinghe wrote in the letter asking our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to join the Heaven Dou imperial family in applying pressure on the Spirit Hall so that they will no longer take action against Wang Li."
"I believe this is feasible. In recent years, the Spirit Hall's power has grown increasingly vast. If our sect wishes to stand firm, besides strengthening ourselves, we must also seek allies."
"The Heaven Dou imperial family is our natural ally. This time we can also build goodwill with Poison Douluo. It's a deal that brings profit without loss."
Chen Xin and Gu Rong naturally had no objections. Chen Xin nodded and said:
"You are the sect master. You make the decision."
Gu Rong said proudly:
"We may be old, but we're not at death's door yet. The Spirit Hall is indeed powerful and forced the Clear Sky Sect into seclusion, but if they want to touch the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, we will not agree!"
Ning Fengzhi felt reassured. With himself, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would stand unshaken.
…
One day later, Spirit City, Papal Hall.
Inside the grand yet solemn hall stood a beautiful figure dressed in luxurious ceremonial robes, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, gazing out the window.
Behind her stood two figures respectfully,one a man more enchanting than a woman, the other a ghostly figure shrouded in black mist.
These two were Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei of the Spirit Hall. The one who commanded such respect from them was naturally the current Pope, Bibi Dong.
At this time, Chrysanthemum Douluo spoke:
"Your Holiness, that is the situation. The Heaven Dou imperial family, together with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, has lodged a complaint against Salas, the Platinum Bishop of the Heaven Dou Spirit Temple, for disregarding his status as a Soul Douluo and attempting to forcibly take away a student from Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"That student is no ordinary one. After compiling information from various sources, his name is Wang Li. With a mutated Blue Silver Grass martial soul and innate soul power of only level three, he absorbed his fourth soul ring not long ago and became a Soul Ancestor at just twelve years old."
"He broke through this realm even faster than Nana, Xie Yue, and Yan. In my opinion, there is no need to pay attention to the complaint from the Heaven Dou imperial family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"Instead, this Wang Li,a twelve-year-old Soul Ancestor,is worth investigating. That old poisoner Dugu Bo does not have the ability to cultivate such an outstanding junior. Should I personally go and look into it?"
Bibi Dong, who had been staring out the window in a daze, seemed to come back to her senses. A cold light appeared in her eyes as she thought:
"You value this student named Wang Li highly. Just because he surpassed my Golden Generation, you were willing to let Salas play the villain to recruit him under your command."
"In that case, as his mother, I will give you a chance to compete with me, Qian Renxue…"
Then her cold yet domineering voice slowly echoed:
"Forget it. Further investigation would only make us a laughingstock. Our Spirit Hall has existed for ten thousand years. A twelve-year-old Soul Ancestor is not worth making a great fuss over."
"Elder Ju, inform Nana, Xie Yue, and Yan. Briefly explain Wang Li's situation. He will be the opponent they must defeat head-on in two years."
"They have grown too lax in their cultivation. Put more effort into guiding them and help them break through to Soul King as soon as possible, so they won't disgrace themselves."
Since Bibi Dong had spoken, Chrysanthemum Douluo could only obey:
"As you command. I will intensify the training of Nana, Xie Yue, and Yan. In two years, at the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament, they will surely shock the audience with Soul King-level power!"
Bibi Dong then continued:
"Elder Gui, go to Heaven Dou City. Reprimand Salas and tell him not to do unnecessary things in the future. He is a Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall. He should know whom to obey and whom not to."
From within the black mist came a hoarse yet respectful voice:
"As you command. I will depart immediately."
…
This disturbance ultimately ended with a few reprimands from Ghost Douluo to Salas. Nevertheless, the Heaven Dou imperial family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were quite satisfied with the outcome.
Regarding the recent plot: the protagonist befriends Xue Qinghe, not Qian Renxue. However, in Bibi Dong's view, the protagonist has already been recruited by Qian Renxue. Given the imbalance of information, this arrangement is relatively reasonable without making the characters seem foolish.
