Chapter 67: Ning Fengzhi's 'Wisdom'; Urgently Withdrawing a Fatal Path
For Ning Fengzhi, whether Tang San was a Disciple of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was important, but not overwhelmingly so.
The most crucial point was that the other party was not from Spirit Hall.
In his eyes, calling the current Tang San exceptionally talented and terrifyingly powerful was not an exaggeration in the least.
Although he had just promised Tang Hao that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would not do anything to Tang San, still...
The Upper Three Sects were, after all, interconnected (dog's head)!
They could not commit the act of backstabbing an ally, but if Spirit Hall discovered Tang San's talent in the future, relentlessly pursued him, and attracted the majority of Spirit Hall's attention, their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would be powerless to help.
Clear Sky Sect was the number one Sect under heaven; they should be able to resolve it themselves, right?
After mocking Tang Hao for a long time, the three of Ning Fengzhi exchanged a look; everything was understood without words.
"Fengzhi, putting aside the matter of Tang San, are you truly not planning to bring Rongrong back?"
"This old man thinks it's utterly backward for Rongrong to be studying at that no-name academy in Soto City."
"With the foundation of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this old man refuses to believe we cannot nurture Rongrong!"
As Gu Rong finished speaking, Chen Xin also showed a thoughtful expression.
As a pure swordsman, he could instantly tell what kind of goods Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were. How could he not worry about his precious Granddaughter studying alongside such wastes?
Ning Fengzhi, however, held a completely different view. He leaned on his cane, slowly walked to the entrance of the council hall, and looked up at the sky. The entire person seemed possessed by Yu Xiaogang at that moment.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, I admit there was an element of gambling in this matter before. Although it's a pity I lost the bet, it wasn't entirely without gain."
Ning Fengzhi's lips curved into a proper smile as he slowly voiced the thoughts in his heart.
"That abstract waste from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wants to prove himself. Finding an exceptionally talented Disciple is the first step, and he certainly won't miss the next All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament in two years."
"Furthermore, their Shrek Academy, fundamentally speaking, is a no-name academy with no accreditation for running a school. If that Yu Xiaogang wants to achieve his revenge, then besides Thunder Academy in Element City, their other choice would be Blue Tyrant Academy."
Upon hearing this, Gu Rong and Chen Xin also reacted, their eyes lighting up.
On the Douluo Continent, you could call Yu Xiaogang weak or a waste, but when it came to wooing women, he truly deserved the title of Master.
In his youth, he managed to thoroughly trick the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden Bibi Dong, and later he even reached the point of marrying his own cousin Liu Erlong. He was truly a master!
"So, Fengzhi, you mean we should wait until Rongrong and the others arrive in Heaven Dou City before we decide whether to act?"
Ning Fengzhi nodded. "That's right, Uncle Gu. This girl Rongrong has been spoiled by us all these years. Letting her go out and suffer a little hardship is also an excellent thing."
"Moreover, given this girl's Cultivation speed, we don't need to worry about that waste rashly making Rongrong absorb a Soul Ring."
There was one thing Ning Fengzhi did not say: their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was ultimately a Sect composed of support system Soul Masters, severely lacking in geniuses with combat-type Martial Souls.
To say that the aristocratic children in Heaven Dou Royal Academy were all useless was an overstatement, but trying to pull them into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was not a simple matter.
Blue Tyrant Academy, however, was different. Although it also had the background of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, it was currently the only academy, besides the Spirit Hall Academy, that recruited commoner Soul Masters without any restrictions.
Sifting for gold in shit—wasn't there still a possibility of finding treasure?
As for whether to let his Disciple Xue Qinghe know Tang San's identity, Ning Fengzhi only contemplated for a moment before resolutely deciding against it.
When Clear Sky Sect was still flourishing, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect supported the Heaven Dou Empire, while the former supported the Star Luo Empire. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon remained neutral, achieving a delicate balance.
Now, the status of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could be called the State Religion of the Heaven Dou Empire; naturally, they did not wish for Clear Sky Sect to meddle.
Not to mention that Tang San was backed by Jiang Li and the Dugu Bo Family, who were close to them...
Qian Renxue: F*** me.
...Meanwhile, north of Longxing City in the Star Luo Empire.
Jiang Li and his two Disciples arrived before a mansion whose paint on the gate was already mottled and peeling.
This was the destination for their group this time: the base of the Speed Clan.
"Do you think it looks shabby?"
Jiang Li spoke up at the right moment while standing beside Tang San. Even Xiao Wu, who was curious, cast her gaze over.
She and Tang San had been eating quite well in Heaven Dou City these past few years. It was hard to imagine that this was the residence of a mansion guarded by a Soul Douluo expert.
It was vastly different from the Strength Clan residence where they usually stayed.
"Ever since Clear Sky Sect sealed its gates and abandoned these four affiliated Sects like trash, the Speed Clan has had the hardest time. They possess speed but lack attack power. They can neither be mercenaries nor Soul Hunters, and their pride prevents them from submitting to others. The fact that they haven't been wiped out until now shows that old man Bai He has some means."
Jiang Li explained slowly.
Upon hearing this, the fist hidden in Tang San's sleeve clenched slightly, and his disgust towards the so-called 'Number One Sect Under Heaven' deepened.
The Strength Clan considered themselves servants, so he had nothing to say; whatever fate they met was their own doing.
But the Speed Clan was, after all, his grandmother's Family, and even the Bloodline of the Speed Clan flowed within him. Yet, Clear Sky Sect simply ignored them. Truly an evil Sect!
The three master and Disciples walked forward and were soon stopped by two thin but sharp-eyed youths at the gate.
"Stop! This is the restricted area of the Speed Clan; outsiders must not pass!"
Faced with the guard's sharp halt, Jiang Li remained composed and said after some thought: "Please inform Clan Leader Bai He that an old acquaintance of Clan Leader Tai Tan from the Strength Clan has come to visit."
Hearing the name of Tai Tan from the Strength Clan, the two guards exchanged a glance, and the vigilance in their eyes dissipated somewhat.
One of them flashed, turning into an afterimage and disappearing inside the gate. His speed was so fast that even Tang San's pupils contracted involuntarily.
Could a Soul Master's speed be faster than his own when using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track?!
Tang San instinctively wanted to label the other party as deserving of death!
However, he quickly recovered... These... these should be his own people...
