Chapter 90

Avalanche, Strange Fire Douluo, Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince

Wanting to prevent the Spirit Hall from succeeding, relying solely on his own strength makes it impossible to successfully seize power from Xue Qinghe's hands.

As for telling the court officials that Xue Qinghe is a fraud.

Only a ghost would believe such talk; even if one did, the interests are so deeply intertwined that even if Xue Qinghe were a fraud, he must now be regarded as the genuine article.

If Xue Beng were to learn of the original story, he would probably think the other party's brain had been sucked out.

To simply hand over all those years of painstaking effort for nothing.

For an enemy whose talent is not inferior to his own, he repeatedly tried to recruit and show mercy; the result was that more than a decade of effort went to waste.

none.

There's also a beautified version of the saying, namely 'love-brain'.

To be frank, in the original story, the protagonist's halo is too obvious, as just a casual remark from San Tai can disrupt the entire nation-changing plan.

Whether soul power, meridians, physique, or mental strength, all are highly refined; all the extraordinary meridians that can be opened have been fully penetrated.

"This item is called the God‑Bestowed Soul Ring; after absorbing it, you can obtain the maximum soul‑ring age you are capable of absorbing—up to one hundred thousand years, or even two or three hundred thousand years or more—and you will also gain the soul skill most suited to you."

"Within Shalu Zhidu, if you have any needs, seek the King of Slaughter; he will do his utmost to satisfy them."

Yang Posue heard this series of shocking news one after another and was stunned; it took a long while before he regained his composure and figured out exactly what he needed to do.

The hand reaching out to receive the God‑Bestowed Soul Ring trembled slightly.

100,000-year Soul Bone, Soul Ring, Soul Skill

With his meridians and physique tempered over more than a decade by the child‑fire, he is confident he can obtain a soul ring of three hundred thousand years or more.

"Sect Master, Posue will surely not disappoint your expectations; he will perfectly complete the mission and return to the sect."

As he spoke, soul rings appeared one after another on his body, and the God‑Bestowed Soul Ring, drawn by Yang Posue's soul power, slowly slipped onto him.

Moreover, a soul bone floated before Yang Posue.

Hall, Main Seat

Yang Posue's mission is top secret; it is absolutely impossible to let Xiao Wu appear here to eavesdrop, and there is not a single soul master within tens of meters.

Life, Plants

Anyway, we can just buy them back and replant later; the money given by the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect hasn't even been spent yet. As for how long Yang Posue will take to absorb the soul ring, we don't know, but Yang Poxiong, Yang Poshi, and Yang Pose are standing guard outside the hall.

With so much time required, Yang Yun doesn't have that much time to spend guarding here.

Reception Hall

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi

Yang Sect Master, Ning Sect Master

Yang Yun stretched out his hand, gesturing for Ning Fengzhi to sit down, saying: "Sect Master Ning, what are you talking about? The benevolence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect is something my Broken Heaven Sect has truly felt; why would there be any trouble?"

"I already know Sect Master Ning's purpose; I currently have no news of the fragrant osmanthus here, but I do have other immortal-grade medicinal herbs, though they are still in their infancy and not yet mature."

"If Sect Master Ning urgently needs them, I am powerless; the only option is to wait until they mature before harvesting. Picking them too early would merely result in insufficient potency, but I fear there might be harmful side effects that are hard to detect."

Ning Fengzhi tried his best to hide it in his eyes, but the sense of loss showed through, as impossible to conceal as a flood engulfing Golden Mountain.

He forced a smile and said: "It's fine; I, Ning, can still live a few more days; waiting a moment is also fine."

"A few days ago, Tang Xiao of the Clear Sky Sect launched an attack; I don't know how the Broken Heaven Sect will face the Clear Sky Sect's retaliation in the future. I myself believe I have some understanding of the Clear Sky Sect, and this matter will certainly not be resolved peacefully."

Yang Yun realized that Ning Fengzhi was changing the subject, and moreover, the topic he shifted to was the sensitive matter of the Clear Sky Sect.

He himself also felt it inappropriate to continue discussing the issue of the immortal herbs.

"It's just like plucking sheep's wool; there's no hurry—let it grow slowly and then pluck slowly."

"The Clear Sky Sect harbors wolfish ambitions, wanting to borrow my Broken Heaven Sect to establish prestige and reemerge; the appearance of the Clear Sky Sect's ancestor, Tang Chen, was beyond my expectations, but the outcome turned out well."

"For now, the Broken Heaven Sect has just been founded and still needs some time to steady its footing, rest, recuperate, and develop; if the Clear Sky Sect doesn't come to provoke me, I wouldn't even want to clash with them in the short term."

"But if they come repeatedly to provoke us, my Broken Heaven Sect is not easy to provoke; Sect Master Qingning needs not worry—there is plenty of time for you and me to slowly discuss our cooperation."

none new.

Elephant Armor Sect, Elephant Armor Academy

The ferocious light in his eyes retracted inward, not revealing the slightest hint.

Even the Sword Douluo, standing beside Ning Fengzhi, only sensed a fleeting sharp aura.

His gaze fell on Yang Yun, whose eyes burned with fighting spirit, but Ning Fengzhi was present at his side; Yang Yun's strength was simply too great.

If he failed to control his force, Ning Fengzhi would be in danger; therefore, the matter of sparring is best left unmentioned for now.

Ning Fengzhi then smiled and said: "Sect Master Yang, you have great ambition; the cooperation between the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect and the Broken Heaven Sect is indeed not urgent. Since your sect has just been established and there are many pressing matters to attend to, I will not continue to stay here and disturb you."

"If there is anything you need, Sect Master Yang, please speak up; the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect will never refuse a friend."

Having said that, Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo bade farewell and departed.

Yang Yun could not say he didn't believe a single word of what Ning Fengzhi said; at least when their interests aligned, he could trust seven tenths of it.

When interests are not aligned, no one is worthy of trust.

The Broken Heaven Sect has already been established; it is also time for those who should step down to step down, and those who should rise to rise.
