Chapter 448: Post-War: Follow-up Plans

"Senior Qian Daoliu, Xue Jie, thank you for your invitation, but please forgive me for refusing," Nan Feihuang said decisively.

"Why?" Qian Renxue was anxious. Since he was willing to trust her, why was he unwilling to follow her?

"Xue Jie, there is a saying from Senior Yu Yuanzhen that I admire very much. Do you know what it is?" Nan Feihuang stared at Qian Renxue and said, "A dragon is always a dragon; it can only be a dragon. It is impossible to be beaten by someone and then go and be a dog for her!"

Hearing these resolute words from Nan Feihuang, Qian Renxue was stunned. She suddenly remembered that while Nan Feihuang was indeed a relatively gentle person, he was also extremely stubborn. For those who wanted to harm him, he would surely repay them with thunder.

Bibi Dong wanted to kill him and had even taken action. Given Nan Feihuang's personality, he would never stop until he repaid this debt tenfold. How could he possibly join the Spirit Hall and become Bibi Dong's subordinate?

In other words, they had now entered a vicious cycle.

Just as Bibi Dong had previously forced Qian Daoliu to choose between her and Nan Feihuang, now it was Nan Feihuang and Bibi Dong; Qian Renxue could only choose one.

Bibi Dong had sent people to ambush Feihuang, which had completely angered the man before her. He and Bibi Dong could not coexist.

Yet, no matter what, Qian Renxue could not abandon Bibi Dong for the sake of Nan Feihuang; after all, she was her biological mother.

No matter how much Bibi Dong had hated Qian Renxue before, she had at least never thought of taking her life.

This mother and daughter looked down on each other, yet they still upheld a final bottom line.

Qian Renxue suddenly had an impulse. She wanted to tell Feihuang the true relationship between herself and Bibi Dong. If Feihuang knew that she and Bibi Dong were mother and daughter, then perhaps, for her sake, he might be able to let go of some of the hatred in his heart.

Just as Qian Renxue was about to speak, a hand suddenly pressed onto her shoulder, stopping her from continuing. It was none other than Qian Daoliu.

"Nan Feihuang, that was the last chance I gave you. Since you refused, I will not be polite to you in the future. Rest assured, I will not break the promise of five years I made to you. But after five years, do not blame me for being heartless. Also, I am sure you are aware that I can only represent myself and cannot restrain Bibi Dong. I cannot guarantee whether she will continue to take action against you in the future. Take care of yourself."

Qian Daoliu could not let anyone know the relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, because once it was spoken, it would mean the relationship between Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong would also be exposed.

That was a stain on the Angel Clan. A master using force against his disciple—if that spread, what face would the Qian Family have left?

The justice and holiness that the Angel Clan had always touted would become a joke in the eyes of the world, and it would also make Bibi Dong, as Pope, a laughingstock. That would completely drive her mad.

After speaking, Qian Daoliu used his soul power to suppress Qian Renxue and forcibly took her away.

The remaining Offering members also left one after another.

Before flying away, they took a deep look at the people of the Gu Lei Kingdom below. This was the first force in a hundred years to bestow upon them, the Seven Great Consecrators, the shame of defeat; they would remember it forever! Golden Crocodile stared fiercely at Lan Xue, "Remember this, Spirit Douluo of Profound Ice. The shame of today will be repaid double one day!"

He could only utter harsh words. The purpose of Xun Yu's deliberate formation layout earlier, which did not bypass Golden Crocodile, was precisely this: if they didn't beat him into submission, this matter wouldn't end so easily.

As for the current Seven Great Consecrators, Qian Daoliu valued his word and kept his promises, so he naturally would not easily break the agreement.

Golden Crocodile, Qingluan, and Xiongzhi were the losers and had no face to act again; Guangling had never wanted to target Nan Feihuang in the first place.

Although Jiangmo had won, his carelessness had led to the defeat of Xiongzhi Douluo, and he could not shirk the blame.

Finally, what use was the remaining Qianjun Douluo?

"Hoo!!!" Seeing this group of people leave, Nan Feihuang let out a deep breath, as if the hundred thousand catties of pressure that had been weighing on him had instantly vanished.

"Too... too amazing! The Gu Lei Kingdom actually defeated the legendary Offering Hall!"

"Their power has completely surpassed the Upper Three Sects of the past." "That's right, especially Nan Feihuang and the Spirit Douluo of Profound Ice. One Spirit Douluo defeated the Third Elder, and the other even defeated Golden Crocodile Douluo, who has the highest seniority and deepest qualifications in the Spirit Hall!"

The exclamations of the watching crowd rose one after another. Perhaps today, they had witnessed a historical transformation.

"Junior Brother————"

Shui Yue'er waved her hand and ran toward this side, followed by her mother and sister.

Feihuang smiled. This family had arrived just in time. The matter with the Spirit Hall had come to a temporary end, but his footsteps would not stop.

In the five years he had secured, he not only had to strive to strengthen himself but also had to develop his forces.

Among the Five Elements Academies, besides the Elephant Armor Academy which had already defected to the Spirit Hall, the other four were the first targets he wanted to bring under his command.

Tianshui, Kamikaze, and Blazing Fire had always been of one mind. As long as Tianshui was used as a medium, it was not impossible to bring the other two under his command.

As for the Thunder Academy, Yu Yuanzhen was now following Nan Feihuang; was this academy still a problem? It would be no exaggeration to say that Feihuang was now the de facto principal of the Thunder Academy.

"Two senior sisters, and Mother Shui, today my Gu Lei Kingdom has won a great victory and is waiting to celebrate properly. You have arrived just in time; would you do me the honor of sitting in the palace for a while?" Nan Feihuang said with a smile.

"Okay, okay! Junior brother, you must tell your senior sister properly how you became so strong. If there are any tips you can teach me, don't be stingy." Of the three, the most enthusiastic was Shui Yue'er, who always looked at Nan Feihuang with burning eyes. If it weren't for her mother and sister being there, and so many people around, she probably would have pounced on him just like Lingqi.

Shui Youlan and Shui Bing'er looked at each other. They were always full of helplessness regarding the youngest in the family, but they hadn't intended to refuse anyway.

Shui Youlan said, "Nephew, today's battle will surely make you famous throughout the world. How could your aunt refuse your invitation?"

"Good, Aunt, two senior sisters, please!" Feihuang looked at Elder Zhang and Jia Chong and said, "Elder Zhang, Elder Jia, I will leave this side to you."

Besides the three from the Shui family, there were many spectators here from other forces, such as various kingdoms and other small sects.

Now they were coming up one by one to congratulate and flatter Nan Feihuang and Nan Tianchen, attempting to get closer to them.

But Feihuang did not have the energy to receive them one by one, so he left it all to the two high officials of Gu Lei; with their status, they were fully qualified.

The two replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, Crown Prince, Queen, and Your Excellency Thunder. You have all just experienced a fierce battle, please rest well. Leave this to us."

"Mm!" Feihuang nodded, just about to leave.

At this moment, a voice called him back, "Nan Feihuang, wait a moment. Could we step aside? I have some things I want to say to you."

Feihuang turned his head to look and saw a young girl in a green dress; it was Ning Rongrong.

"Ning Rongrong, whatever it is, wait until I finish celebrating. I just finished a life-and-death battle, my heart is very tired, and I don't want to get dragged into your troubles." Feihuang decisively refused Ning Rongrong. He actually roughly guessed what she wanted to say, but he was too lazy to pay attention.

Being refused so directly, Ning Rongrong was naturally a bit unhappy. Fortunately, she had experienced too much of the warmth and coldness of human relationships during this period and had grown a lot; at least she would no longer be as willful as before, getting angry at every turn.

She also knew that she had no right to be angry at Nan Feihuang, so she suppressed her dissatisfaction and said, "Fine, then you go back and rest first. I am staying in Gu Lei City. When you have rested enough, I will come to find you."

Nan Feihuang hadn't expected that this little witch could now control her temper. He waved his hand and said, "Suit yourself!"
