Ning Fengzhi gripped the scroll even tighter, tearing its edge. “Seven Kill Douluo, aren’t you afraid the world will unite against Spirit Hall?”
Chrysanthemum Douluo shrugged indifferently. “Whatever. Do as you please!”
Chrysanthemum Douluo turned and left without showing the slightest fear.
Ning Fengzhi watched Chrysanthemum Douluo’s disappearing figure. At last, he loosened his clenched fist and spoke softly. “Uncle Jian, do you think Seven Kill Douluo… only sent a message to our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, or will he send messages to the other powers on the continent as well?”
Sword Douluo remembered his cousin, and fear was now etched into his bones. He couldn’t help forcing out a bitter smile. “Given my cousin’s personality, he’s arrogant and domineering and doesn’t take anyone seriously. I’m afraid he won’t just send a message to our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School. He may send one to every major power on the continent.”
Bone Douluo remained silent.
Ning Fengzhi said, “Uncle Gu, what do you think about this? Is it good or bad? Can we stop him?”
Bone Douluo opened his mouth, forcing himself to speak. “Seven Kill Douluo… Like that old swordsman, his Martial Soul is the Seven Kill Sword, but Seven Kill Douluo’s Seven Kill Sword is different from that old swordsman’s!”
“Seven Kill Douluo became a Titled Douluo at the age of eighteen, earned the title of Seven Kill, and cultivated to peak level ninety-nine by the age of thirty. Then the Douluo vanished without a trace, disappearing for nearly seventy years. If nothing unexpected happened, his cultivation must have advanced even further, making him more terrifying than before.”
“Seventy years ago, there was no one who could become Seven Kill Douluo, let alone now, seventy years later. What I mean is, whatever Seven Kill Douluo says when we go to Spirit Hall, we must agree with him and never contradict him.”
Bone Douluo recalled the legend of Seven Kill Douluo and added with a bitter smile, “Given that man’s personality, if nine out of ten people object, he won’t try to persuade those nine people. He’ll kill them outright!”
Ning Fengzhi suddenly said, “I have a bad feeling about this. Why don’t we ask the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Clear Sky School how things are going for them?”
At this critical moment, Ning Fengzhi needed both of them to offer advice on the sect’s major decision.
Sword Douluo could barely accept it. After all, Yang Lin was his cousin, and they were relatives. As long as he obeyed, Yang Lin wouldn’t make things difficult for him.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi look at him, Sword Douluo shook his head. “I suggest we don’t ask them for advice. Otherwise, we’ll drag the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School down into ruin with us.”
Seeing the two of them staring intently at him, Sword Douluo had no good idea either. He said, “Fengzhi, old bones, have you ever considered that Spirit Hall is only two days away from any major power, given the strength of a Titled Douluo?”
“Why did he give us ten days?”
“How could he not know that you and I would discuss this privately? My cousin isn’t stupid. The fact that he dares to let us discuss it can only mean one thing.”
“He doesn’t respect any of us!”
“If we arrive at a shocking conclusion that my cousin doesn’t like, then the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School…” The foundation built up over the years might be destroyed in an instant.
After all, who would dare oppose the reputation of Seven Kill Douluo, aside from an ignorant fool who knew nothing and had never heard his name?
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!
Yu Yuanzhen stared at the unshakable scroll in his hand. His Martial Soul automatically possessed him, and his eyes blazed like lightning. “Snake Lance, say that again if you dare!”
“You want our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to submit and surrender?”
“Who gave Spirit Hall the nerve to speak like that?”
Snake Lance Douluo wasn’t frightened in the slightest. He casually threatened Yu Yuanzhen. “Old Dragon, let’s not talk about whether you can beat me. Even if you can, you’d better not touch me. Just see what happens!”
“If even a single hair on my head is harmed, the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, from top to bottom, will have its bloodline cut off. Not one of you will survive!”
Snake Lance Douluo lounged in his chair, watching Yu Yuanzhen jump around like a clown. After all, besides being skilled at killing, Seven Kill Douluo had another advantage: he protected his own people.
Snake Lance Douluo believed that if anything happened to him in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Seven Kill Douluo would certainly wipe them out with a single slash of his sword!
Yu Yuanzhen calmed himself and looked at the two characters, Yang Lin, in the signature. All his courage was crushed by those two names.
Snake Lance Douluo patted Yu Yuanzhen on the shoulder and laughed. “Old Dragon, do you believe that if I killed myself here, you’d have to kneel and beg me not to die?”
Yu Yuanzhen’s face flushed, then turned pale, before a smile appeared on his face. “Snake Lance Douluo, what are you saying? We’re all friends. Wouldn’t it be too formal to say something like that?”
“Since this is an invitation from the Supreme Elder, how could we refuse? I’ll definitely arrive at Spirit Hall in ten days.”
Snake Lance Douluo said, “Whether you come or not doesn’t matter to me. There’s no point in coming anyway. But if anyone doesn’t show up, my Supreme Elder will remember it clearly.”
Yu Yuanzhen: “…”
Since they had ten days, they could use that time to contact all sides and explore possible responses to the call to action initiated by Spirit Hall.
Heaven Dou City.
Yang Lin, dressed in red, walked slowly toward the towering city wall that reached into the clouds, stretching from heaven to earth, vast and majestic, awe-inspiring and dazzling.
Yet in Yang Lin’s eyes, it was no different from a sheet of paper.
All he had to do was raise his hand and tap it, and his Sword Qi could turn a hundred-foot stretch of city wall into dust.
Red clothes, white hair, unparalleled youth!
A middle-aged man in black robes followed beside him, his appearance concealed by the robe.
Yang Lin and Ghost Douluo didn’t break any rules because of their status. They calmly joined the crowd and walked through the city gates.
Yang Lin didn’t want to stay in one place for long, so he had come to pick up Qian Renxue and take her back to Spirit Hall. At the same time, Ghost Douluo had come to the Heaven Dou royal family to deliver a message. Ghost Douluo admired him greatly, so Yang Lin had refused to leave with him. Instead, he gave Ghost Douluo pointers like a junior.
Ghost Douluo was grateful. Under Yang Lin’s guidance, many problems in his cultivation were easily resolved, and his strength increased rapidly. Moreover, Yang Lin was extremely kind, like a handsome young man.
This was nothing like Seven Kill Douluo.
A touch of pure red, a touch of pure black!
The city guard said, “One silver coin to enter the city.”
When they reached the city gate, Ghost Douluo heard the guards announcing the entry fee. He took out a silver coin and tossed it toward the city guard. “Here’s one of my silver coins!”
When the city guards saw Yang Lin, they only saw a flash of golden light before Ghost Douluo slapped down a handful of gold coins. “These are a hundred gold coins from my lord!”
The city guards gaped, realizing that anyone who could casually produce a hundred gold coins was no ordinary person. They cupped their hands in greeting and said, “My lord, you only need one silver coin to enter. You’ve given us far too much!”
“My master deserves it, even if he had thousands or tens of thousands of gold coins!”
The city guards: “…”
The passersby: “…”
Yang Lin couldn’t help laughing. Although Ghost Douluo’s behavior was somewhat ridiculous, he was quite likable when it came to getting things done.
Seeing Yang Lin’s faint smile, Ghost Douluo’s eyes narrowed. Spending a hundred gold coins to make Yang Lin smile was worth more than anything.
“Wasn’t that stupid?”
“To make myself look so damn rich!”
At that moment, an unpleasant voice rang out from inside the city. The speaker was a little Fatty dressed in red.
