Chapter 351: Ning Fengzhi's Dilemma
"I know where Tang San is," Nan Feihuang said. "He is currently in Slaughter City. If you dare not enter to kill him, then I can tell you where the exit of Slaughter City is located. When he comes out, you can just intercept and kill him at the exit, then bring his head to see me. I will then help Sword Douluo remove the Ice and Fire Power. This trade should be considered fair, right?"
"Fair!" Ning Fengzhi had to acknowledge Nan Feihuang's words. Back then, it was precisely to stop Lan Xue from killing the Tang Family father and son that they had formed a grudge with the Gu Lei Kingdom.
Now that they wanted to resolve this rift, naturally, the one who tied the bell must be the one to untie it; they would take the heads of the Tang Family father and son to apologize to the Gu Lei Kingdom.
It was just that if they did this, the saying that the Upper Three Sects were of one mind would become a joke, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would also form a grudge with Tang Xiao because of it.
The Clear Sky Sect might not care about the affairs of the Tang Family father and son now, but Tang Xiao himself could not possibly ignore it. His strength was only stronger, not weaker, than Sword Douluo in his prime; he was truly difficult to deal with.
"Crown Prince Feihuang, in fact, what does a mere pair of Tang Family father and son count for to the Gu Lei Kingdom? Why must you be so calculating? This seat is willing to offer more generous compensation..."
Ning Fengzhi had just wanted to continue persuading him when he was interrupted by a sharp shout from Nan Feihuang: "Shut up, Ning Fengzhi."
"My Gu Lei Kingdom repays kindness with kindness and vengeance with vengeance; we don't need anything else. You are not qualified to negotiate with me right now. Don't think that just because your collateral family married into my Gu Lei Kingdom, you are truly family. You should understand that I don't care about you at all. If your sect were destroyed one day, I would laugh and open champagne, then use those three collateral members of your family to raise a new Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect within my Gu Lei Kingdom."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo subconsciously clenched their fists. How was this Nan Feihuang exactly the same as his mother? There was no pretense or hedging between major powers; he simply laid everything out plainly on the table.
Today, Nan Feihuang wanted to express his youthful vigor; his hostility was displayed clearly, leaving Ning Fengzhi with absolutely no opportunity to bargain.
"It seems Crown Prince Feihuang has made up his mind. Then this seat will say no more. Please allow this seat to consider it carefully. Farewell." Ning Fengzhi no longer feigned courtesy and left with an ugly expression.
He truly detested this mother and son pair now. Clearly, one was a Queen and the other a Crown Prince, yet one wouldn't listen to people speak at all, and the other spoke too directly, blocking all his paths of retreat.
Had he known, he should have come while Nan Tianchen was in seclusion. That person should have been slightly easier to talk to than this mother and son.
Leaving the Gu Lei Royal City, Sword Douluo asked, "Fengzhi, do you really intend to follow Nan Feihuang's request and kill Tang San? This will surely provoke the fury of the Tang brothers."
This was what Chen Xin worried about most. Even if he recovered his cultivation, he could not possibly fight the Tang brothers one against two. If the old Bone were still alive, plus the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, perhaps he would have had some confidence.
Unfortunately, ever since Bone Douluo was killed and Lan Xue went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to cause a scene, killing one-third of the sect's Spirit Douluos, the sect's strength was no longer what it once was.
Many people speculated whether the ranking of the Blue Lightning was already enough to swap places with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
This was only because everyone did not know the situation of Sword Douluo; otherwise, the Lower Four Sects would have united to pull the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect off the throne of the Upper Three Sects.
The current Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could not afford to offend the Gu Lei Kingdom, nor could it afford to offend the Tang brothers, yet now it had to choose one of the two.
Either take Tang San's head, cure Sword Douluo, but offend Tang Hao and Tang Xiao. Or let nature take its course, watch Sword Douluo gradually weaken to Death, and when that day came, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, having lost the protection of a Title Douluo, would certainly be torn to shreds by other sects.
After all, it was only an auxiliary sect, yet it happened to be the wealthiest one.
Without a long spear but only gold, wasn't it just like Tang Monk meat without Wukong's protection? Everyone would want to come and take a bite.
"There is no other way. Nan Feihuang is indeed the type who must repay whatever he is owed. Uncle Bone wanted to kill him and lost his life. We forcibly protected the Tang family back then and offended him, so he wants us to take the Tang family's lives to repay him. This person is truly poisonous!" Ning Fengzhi said helplessly.
Whichever of the two choices Nan Feihuang gave would cause huge losses to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, yet he had no choice.
"Uncle Sword, after we return, dispatch three Spirit Douluos from the sect to go to the forest behind the Slaughter City that Nan Feihuang mentioned to intercept him. Once his tracks are discovered, Slash him immediately!"
Ning Fengzhi had made up his mind. Tang San's life was indeed not easy to take, but no matter how important his life was, in Ning Fengzhi's heart, it was not heavier than Sword Douluo.
Indeed, this would provoke the fury of the Tang brothers, but that was a matter for later. Who could predict how future events would evolve?
The fact was, if Sword Douluo were not saved, then after Chen Xin's Death, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would instantly turn into the dust of history.
"Understood, Fengzhi!" Sword Douluo had already prepared himself to be an enemy of the Tang brothers in the future.
However, if they knew that, in fact, Tang Hao was already dead, they might not have even this much hesitation. If it were only Tang Xiao, although troublesome, as long as Sword Douluo had Ning Fengzhi behind him, he would not fear him.
Tang Xiao could not use Ring Detonation or the Great Sumeru Hammer. Just a set of Clear Sky Nine Absolutes could not make up for the gap of an entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Unless the Clear Sky Sect took action to deploy the Haotian Formation; unfortunately, the current Clear Sky Sect viewed Tang Hao as an enemy and would not stand up for him.
Nan Feihuang stood on the city tower, watching the backs of Sword Douluo and Ning Fengzhi as they went away. Behind him, Lv Lingqi asked, "Husband, to kill a mere Tang San, why go to such trouble? Anyway, you are the Slaughter God of Slaughter City and can enter and exit Slaughter City at will. Killing him should be effortless, right?"
"I know, but according to the information inferred from the Dunjia Heavenly Book, Tang San belongs to an artificial Child of Destiny. Since he is artificial, then who created him? I need to figure this out. I suspect it is the Asura God, so I don't want to be the vanguard myself and let the Asura God notice me. Let the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect try it. Whether they succeed or fail, it will cause a confrontation between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Tang family, which has no downside for me," Nan Feihuang laughed.
"Furthermore, the reason I want to kill Tang San is just because I have already killed Tang Hao, so I want to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. In reality, I am not afraid of him. Even if he really has the Asura God behind him, I also have the God Position that comes with the Dunjia Heavenly Book. I have confidence that he will never catch up to me."
Feihuang did not like Tang San, but he never feared him either; he was only interested in the destiny on him because he was the original protagonist.
