Chapter 99: Demon-Subduing Douluo

That night, a secret letter was delivered into the hands of Ning Fengzhi.

The contents of the letter: a proposal for cooperation from the Consecration Hall to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, expressing a strong desire for collaboration.

At the same time, they would soon send someone to discuss the details with Ning Fengzhi.

The specific person was not indicated in the letter; presumably, Qian Daoliu had not yet decided on a candidate before the letter was sent out from the Consecration Hall.

But from this letter, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could obtain a great deal of information.

"That former Angel Douluo is still alive." Chen Xin's expression was grave as he recalled the past.

The Chen family was once a prominent family on the continent; before Tang Chen rose to prominence, the Seven Kill Sword was even hailed as the continent's number one tool martial soul.

It was just a pity that Chen Xin's grandfather, Chen Xun, and his father, Chen Jianjun, fell one after another at the hands of Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu.

The Chen family lost its two main pillars, and coupled with Chen Xin's weak strength at the time, the family eventually declined and was forced to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

It could be said that Qian Daoliu deserved half the credit for the collapse of the Chen family.

But Chen Xin did not hate him; after all, it was his own father's choice.

Today's Chen Xin was far from reaching his father's height and was simply unable to contend with Qian Daoliu.

Upon learning that he was still alive, Ning Fengzhi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the appearance of little Wu caused us to change our minds. If we had insisted on confronting the Spirit Hall, I fear..."

Qian Daoliu might not take action against Bibi Dong, but he would certainly not go soft on an outsider like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong were very fortunate; if they had followed that path to the end, heaven knows what kind of disaster the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would have encountered.

Of course, they could not foresee the future, nor did they know of Tang San's existence.

"The letter has already provided the rendezvous signal. Should we make arrangements in advance?" Gu Rong asked.

Ning Fengzhi shook his head.

"Qian Daoliu already has the intention to cooperate, while Bibi Dong remains aggressive toward us; it seems there must be a split within their ranks."

"The Pope Palace is, after all, the most visible authority of the Spirit Hall; our cooperation with the Consecration Hall cannot be made public in the short term."

"The fewer people who know about this, the better, and not a whisper of it can spread within the sect. Uncle Gu, I must trouble you to wait at the appointed location in person..."

The person the Spirit Hall sent this time was the Demon-Subduing Douluo.

This matter arose because of Wu Qi, so it should have been the full responsibility of Qingluan Douluo. However, after absorbing the Immortal Herb, his soul power reached the Level 97 Great Perfection, just one small step away from breaking through.

In order not to waste this precious insight, he decided to stay behind for closed-door cultivation.

In the end, the task of winning over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect fell to the Demon-Subduing Douluo.

He did not keep Gu Rong waiting long; after waiting at the rendezvous point for half an hour, the Demon-Subduing Douluo appeared.

The two sides exchanged the signal, and under Gu Rong's guidance, the Demon-Subduing Douluo secretly arrived at the secret chamber of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Knowing that Qian Daoliu was still alive, and coupled with the relationship between Wu Qi and Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi had already decided to lean completely toward the Consecration Hall, making significant concessions on the conditions they proposed.

The Consecration Hall would not, after all, openly interfere with the decisions of the Pope Palace, so the exchange condition they proposed was very simple—when the Consecration Hall needed it, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would need to step forward to do some things, and the Consecration Hall would provide them with protection.

Regarding the commercial markets where the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Pope Palace had disputes, each side took a step back and split the market share equally, temporarily resolving the conflict.

For Ning Fengzhi, this condition was completely acceptable.

Late that night, both sides concluded an alliance agreement.

The content of the agreement stated that before Wu Qi grew up, the cooperation between the two sides could not be exposed to the public.

As for the true identity of Xue Qinghe, the Consecration Hall did not mention it.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had only just submitted; they would not be told the core issues for the time being, nor was it possible for them to be told.

The Demon-Subduing Douluo was not idle.

Leaving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he snuck into the Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan.

There were only three Education Committees sitting in the academy, and they could not discover his arrival at all.

Dugu Bo would not do things for the academy; even if he discovered someone had snuck in, as long as Wu Qi was not in trouble, he would not show himself.

Early the next morning, Qiangu Changkong mysteriously called Wu Qi to his dormitory.

"Seventh Grandfather, you've come." Seeing the familiar figure, Wu Qi hurriedly bowed in greeting.

The Demon-Subduing Douluo laughed heartily, "Thanks to you, both Sixth Brother and I have broken through to Level 97."

The two were already at the peak of Level 96; the insights brought by the Immortal Herb allowed them to break through the final shackle.

"Sixth Brother and I discussed it; when you need to hunt for a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring, we will personally come forward to help, as a return for your favor. How about that?"

Elders were unwilling to owe favors to juniors, and Wu Qi found it hard to refuse, "Then I shall follow Seventh Grandfather's words."

Hearing this, the Demon-Subduing Douluo nodded with satisfaction.

How many Ten-Thousand Year Soul Bones can a Spirit Master obtain in a lifetime?

Since they used this to repay Wu Qi, the other Consecrations would have to change their conditions.

And given Wu Qi's status, the things he lacked were very limited.

Thinking of the other Consecrations racking their brains for this, the Demon-Subduing Douluo could not help but feel fortunate that he was the one who went out this time.

"I have already disciplined that boy Changkong for his faults on your behalf. If he offends again, do not give him any face; scold him when you should, and if that doesn't work, demote him to a substitute."

Qiangu Changkong gave a bitter smile, "Seventh Grandfather, you are my own grandfather; can you give me some face?"

The Demon-Subduing Douluo laughed and scolded, "The Qiangu family does not need useless people. Reflect well; in the future, you will thank me for today's lesson, as it will save your life."

After speaking, he did not stay long.

After briefly informing Wu Qi of the cooperation between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Consecration Hall, he quickly returned to report.

The Consecration Hall now had an "agent" on the outside, and many things could be done in the future.

It was foreseeable that for a period of time in the future, the Consecration Hall would be quite busy.

At the same time, regarding the supplementary clauses for the cooperation, Demon-Subduing Douluo had some ideas.

Wu Qi and Qiangu Changkong were staying at Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan, and with their current strength, it was truly possible for them to compete for the championship in the future.

The Heaven Dou Empire was still led by Xue Ye, and Qian Renxue's plan had not yet been fully implemented; letting the Heaven Dou Empire freeload on their reputation, what kind of business was this?

Of course, this was only his personal thought, and whether it could gain the approval of the other enshrined elders remained an unknown.

……

That morning, Wu Qi asked for leave for everyone on the team and invited them all to his dormitory.

Ever since Feng Xiaotian's Self-Created Soul Skill was perfected, Feng Zhanglin had already signaled his intention to align with him.

The Fire Family had not yet made a move; it seemed the benefits offered were not enough.

Currently, the team members got along harmoniously and trusted one another.

The talent of Feng Xiaotian and the others was excellent; after absorbing the Immortal Herb, their future achievements would be immeasurable.

With their help in the future, Wu Qi believed that even if it were difficult to obtain the support of the Enshrined Hall, he could still contend against Bibi Dong.

Inside the dormitory, the straightforward Huo Wu spoke up and asked, "Captain, gathering everyone in such a rush, is there a new training arrangement?"

Wu Qi smiled and said: "We have already demonstrated good coordination."

"Everyone was exhausted yesterday, so no team Spirit Fighting matches were scheduled. But starting tonight, I have decided to arrange one team Spirit Fighting match every night, and if there are special circumstances, it will be canceled at my discretion."
