Chapter 13 Sect Assembly? Hu Yanzhen's Little Thoughts.
Dugu Bo said, "There's still no sign of it! That kid doesn't seem too willing!!"
Qian Xunji nodded and saw Yue Guanxin walk over with a satisfied look on her face, as if she had seen her long-lost lover!
"Tsk tsk! With that expression on Yue's face, anyone who didn't know better would think he'd gone off to meet his lover!"
Qian Xunji couldn't help but say.
The ghostly figure murmured, "Right now, I'm not even as important to Yue Guan as that rare, heavenly chrysanthemum!"
"Um?"
Qian Xunji and Dugu Bo looked at the ghost in surprise at the same time. They couldn't help but gasp and took a step to the side to distance themselves from the ghost.
"Oh, don't get me wrong, I was talking about brotherhood!"
"That's what Ghost explained."
Qian Xunji and Dugu Bo frowned slightly; Gui Mei's words were really unconvincing!
Yue Guan asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"It's nothing!" Qianxun said quickly. "Have you seen the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum?"
Yue Guan exclaimed excitedly, "Yes! I noticed it has grown a little taller, and the fragrance is even stronger!"
"It's good to see it now, we should continue our journey." Qianxun said quickly, "Sunset Forest and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are still quite a distance away!"
Before leaving.
Yue Guan looked at Dugu Bo solemnly, "Bo! I'm entrusting that rare and precious chrysanthemum to your care! You must take good care of it!"
"Don't worry!" Dugu Bo suddenly said, "We will definitely prevent other bees from collecting its honey!"
Qian Xunji and the other two were stunned. The eccentric Dugu Bo was actually joking with them!
The Pope's palanquin continued its journey, heading towards the location of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
One day later.
Qian Xunji appeared in front of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's gate, where Ning Fengzhi was already standing at the entrance to greet him.
"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope! Your presence is a great honor to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
Ning Fengzhi offered a flattering reply.
Qian Xunji smiled and said, "Sect Leader Ning, you're too kind."
"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!" said the pretty woman beside Ning Fengzhi timidly.
Qian Xunji waved her hand, "Bring up all the gifts I prepared!"
This time.
Qian Xunji brought ten large boxes of gifts, all filled with valuable items, which was a great show of respect to Ning Fengzhi.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Holiness!"
Ning Fengzhi quickly replied.
"Let's go in first! Tang Zhen from the Haotian Sect and Yu Yuanzhen from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan have also arrived."
Qian Xunji gestured for him to enter and stepped into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
In the reception room.
Tang Zhen, Yu Yuanzhen, and Hu Yanzhen, along with almost all the other sect leaders, arrived. Upon seeing Qian Xunji appear, they immediately stood up to greet him.
"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!"
"Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!"
...
Qian Xunji gestured with his hand and said, "Everyone, please don't stand on ceremony, please sit down!"
Ning Fengzhi said, "Your Holiness, please take a seat!"
"Your Holiness, please take a seat!"
Tang Zhen and the others immediately responded.
Qian Xunji didn't stand on ceremony and sat down in the seat of honor. Given the strength of the Spirit Hall, sitting in the seat of honor was already a sign of respect for the others!
The others then took their seats, with the sect leaders and family heads sitting in the main seats and their direct disciples sitting in the outermost circle.
Tang Yuehua's gaze was completely drawn to Qian Xunji. She had heard of the title of Pope of the Spirit Hall, and this was the first time she had been so close to Qian Xunji.
"He's not bad looking! You wouldn't guess he's already middle-aged!"
Tang Yuehua murmured.
Because of her mutated martial soul, she was unable to cultivate, and her soul power level was not even level ten. Therefore, she had nothing in common with the opposite sex of the same age from other sects. She just sat quietly by herself, observing the people around her.
After exchanging pleasantries, the leaders of the various sects began to build relationships with each other.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hu Yanzhen of the Elephant Armor Sect walked up to Qian Xunji and whispered, "Your Holiness, what do you think of the sect conference I proposed earlier?"
"I understand how you feel, but with the strength of your Elephant Armor Sect, even if a sect conference were held, you wouldn't be able to squeeze into the top three sects!"
Qian Xunji bluntly pointed out the Elephant Armor Sect's lack of strength.
Hu Yanzhen immediately said, "Your Holiness, although I am only a Soul Douluo, even a Title Douluo would have a hard time penetrating my defense!"
"Are you planning to take on a Title Douluo head-on at the sect conference? Are you planning to exhaust him until he surrenders?"
Qian Xunji's sharp gaze fell on Hu Yanzhen, instantly making Hu Yanzhen afraid to even breathe.
Hu Yanzhen realized he had been too hasty and could only apologize repeatedly. Even though Qian Xunji had clearly refused, he still said those useless things, showing no respect for the Pope of the Spirit Hall!
"Your Holiness, I misspoke!"
Hu Yanzhen immediately replied.
Qian Xunji slowly said, "Huyan Zhen, it will be very difficult for you to break through to the Title Douluo level at your age, and your son's talent is only average!"
"We can only wait for your grandson, let's wait a few more years!"
"If your grandson has any talent, you can send him to the Spirit Hall for training!"
Upon hearing Qian Xunji's words, Huyan Zhen immediately said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
The others in the seats also noticed Hu Yanzhen's actions and looked over, wondering what Qian Xunji and Hu Yanzhen had talked about.
"I'm tired, I'm going to rest first, you guys chat!"
Qianxun rushed down the road.
He had come a day early anyway, and Ning Fengzhi's wedding banquet wasn't until tomorrow, so there was no point in staying any longer.
After Qianxun left quickly, Tang Zhen and the others immediately looked at Huyan Zhen.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Hu Yanzhen asked, puzzled.
Yu Yuanzhen asked, "Huyan Zhen, what did you discuss with the Pope? Tell us all!"
"We didn't talk much!" Hu Yanzhen smiled as he stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Everyone, I'm going to rest now. See you tomorrow!"
After Huyan Zhen left, the others looked at each other and remained silent for a moment.
Tang Zhen suddenly spoke up: "I think I just heard about some kind of sect conference, but the Pope didn't agree to it."
"Everyone knows that Hu Yanzhen has always wanted to become one of the top three sects," Ning Fengzhi added.
Yu Yuanzhen scoffed, "Sect Tournament? With the Elephant Armor Sect's strength, even with the support of the Spirit Hall, they wouldn't be able to squeeze into the top three sects!"
Seeing that the atmosphere in the reception room had changed, Tang Yuehua got up and left. She wasn't interested in these things; instead, she was very interested in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting!
Without realizing it.
Tang Yuehua walked to the edge of Qibao Lake, an artificial lake built by the Qibao Glazed Tile Sect, which contains many strange things.
"Wow!"
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is too rich! They just leave a priceless luminous pearl in the lake like that?!"
Tang Yuehua spotted the shimmering luminous pearl in the lake and couldn't help but exclaim.
Although the Haotian Sect is the head of the three upper sects and has four single-attribute clans as its vassals, its financial resources are still no match for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
"That's incredibly extravagant!"
