Chapter 196 Qian Renxue: I won’t be at peace until he’s dead!
Tang San watched Liu Erlong’s departing figure, an indescribable despair welling up in his heart.
Master’s wife... Dean... even you are betraying me?
He stared intently at the door, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The woman who once helped him hunt for spirit rings, protected him, and shielded him from pressure, was just gone like that?
He just abandoned them and left?
His hands clenched into fists.
His nails dug deep into his palms, drawing blood.
But he said nothing.
He simply lowered his head, remaining silent.
Ning Fengzhi watched this scene, his heart also churning with turmoil.
He didn’t understand.
Why did Yu Luomian just leave like that?
Why was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan so weak in their attitude towards the Spirit Hall?!
Didn’t everyone agree to be allies?
How come in the end, only I am left, still resisting the Spirit Hall!
He gritted his teeth, a resolute glint in his eyes.
Since that’s the case, then he can only rely on himself!
Yue Guan looked at Ning Fengzhi again.
His voice carried a hint of mockery: "Sect Leader Ning, are you still going to invite your daughter’s classmate back to the sect?"
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath.
He stared at Yue Guan’s smug face, at the Gui Mei figure, and at the menacing Holy Emperor warriors.
He knew this matter couldn’t end peacefully.
But could he just give up?
Impossible!
When had Ning Fengzhi ever admitted defeat?!
"Uncle Sword!"
He hissed, "Take Tang San, let’s go!"
His words had barely left his lips.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda instantly materialized beneath his feet!
The seven-tiered pagoda shone brightly!
Seven beams of multicolored light shot out from the pagoda, striking Chen Xin precisely!
Strength amplification, speed amplification, defense amplification, soul power amplification...
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s amplification was fully applied to Chen Xin!
Chen Xin’s aura surged instantly!
His already sharp, eagle-like eyes became even more piercing!
Yue Guan’s expression changed drastically: "Ning—Feng—Zhi—! You dare?!"
He roared, "Old Ghost!"
Gui Mei reacted instantly!
Both of them simultaneously activated their soul power, and the dark purple light of the Polar Stillness Domain rapidly brewed between them!
Once the domain was formed, even Chen Xin would be trapped!
However... Chen Xin was faster!
His figure flashed, like a white lightning bolt, instantly passing between Yue Guan and Gui Mei!
A flash of sword light!
"Swoosh—!"
The Polar Stillness Domain, barely formed, was severed by a single sword strike!
Yue Guan and Gui Mei both groaned and took a half-step back!
The backlash of their soul power made their faces pale!
Meanwhile, Chen Xin had already used his soul power to sweep up Ning Fengzhi, Ning Rongrong, and Tang San!
The four figures transformed into a streak of light and rushed out of the rest room!
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared at the end of the corridor!
"Damn it—!!!"
Yue Guan roared, about to give chase!
But was stopped by Gui Mei.
"Don’t chase," Gui Mei’s voice was hoarse and cold. "Chen Xin’s speed is too fast; you can’t catch him."
Yue Guan took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.
He turned around and looked at Tang Yu and Tang Xin in the corner.
The two women were trembling, their faces ashen.
They were disciples of the Clear Sky Sect.
They were remnants.
A cold glint flashed in Yue Guan’s eyes: "Guards!"
Four Saint Emperor Warriors stepped forward: "Present!"
Yue Guan pointed at Tang Yu and Tang Xin: "Kill them on the spot!"
"Yes!"
The cold spear tip pierced their bodies.
Tang Yu’s eyes widened, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she only coughed up blood.
Tang Xin collapsed into a pool of blood before she could even utter a sound.
Four warriors carried the two away.
Yue Guan withdrew his gaze and took a deep breath.
He looked at the students of Blue Tyrant Academy and slowly said, "Gentlemen, the competition will likely be difficult to continue."
His voice regained its calm: "The Spirit Hall has prepared a compensation of three thousand gold soul coins for each of you."
"If you are willing to join the Spirit Hall, you can receive an additional two thousand gold soul coins."
He swept his gaze across the crowd: "It’s up to you all."
The students were both shocked and terrified upon hearing this.
But what could they do now?
"Thank you, Elder!"
They all spoke, their voices uneven.
Yue Guan nodded.
His gaze swept across the crowd.
Then, he saw two particularly conspicuous figures.
A man and a woman.
The man had short blond hair, heterochromatic eyes, and an arrogant demeanor.
The woman had long black hair, a stunning figure, and a cold, aloof expression.
Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing.
Yue Guan’s lips curled slightly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
Truly interesting.
I wonder what will happen to these two in a few days?
Will they be left to rot in the wilderness, or will they remain unharmed?
He withdrew his gaze, scanning the room before finally settling on Flander, who was still kneeling on the ground.
"Men."
He pointed at Flander: "Take him back. How dare he obstruct a mission!"
Four warriors stepped forward, surrounded Flander, grabbed his arms, and dragged him away.
Flander didn’t struggle.
He didn’t even raise his head.
He simply let them carry him, like a walking corpse.
Yue Guan waved his hand: "Fall back!"
...
The viewing platform.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei approached Qian Renxue and Jiang Bai.
Yue Guan bowed slightly, his voice tinged with apology: "Your Majesty, that Tang San... was taken away by Ning Fengzhi."
Qian Renxue frowned slightly upon seeing Yue Guan and Gui Mei’s appearance: "You’re injured?"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei quickly bowed and replied, "Minor injuries, a few days of rest will suffice."
Qian Renxue nodded, murmuring, "Ning Fengzhi?"
Her voice held a hint of surprise and displeasure: "Where did he get the audacity to intercept someone my Spirit Hall wanted to capture?"
Jiang Bai sat calmly to the side.
He waved his hand: "It’s nothing."
Qian Renxue looked at him: "Nothing?"
Jiang Bai nodded: "Let Ning Fengzhi and that Tang San run wild for a few more days."
A slight smile played on his lips, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "Give that Tang San a glimmer of hope for revenge."
"Finally...make him utterly despair!"
Qian Renxue was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "He’s Tang Hao’s son, and he possesses twin martial souls."
Her voice carried a hint of gravity: "I won’t be at ease until he’s dead!"
Jiang Bai smiled, putting his arm around her waist: "It’s alright, Sister Xue’er."
He leaned close to her ear, lowering his voice: "With me here, I can help you massage and calm you down."
Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him, but didn’t pull away: "Get lost!"
She lightly spat: "Always being inappropriate when I’m serious!"
Jiang Bai smiled, not retorting.
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Sister Xue’er, are the rankings of the Upper Three Sects and Lower Four Sects determined by us?"
Qian Renxue shook her head: "No."
She explained, "The rankings of the Upper Three Sects and Lower Four Sects are not determined by the Spirit Hall. They are determined by the Seven Great Sects Tournament held every twenty years."
"This ranking depends entirely on each sect’s performance in the tournament. It’s a ranking of strength recognized by the Soul Master world."
She looked at Jiang Bai suspiciously: "Why are you asking this?"
Jiang Bai stroked his chin, lost in thought.
After a moment, he slowly spoke: "You said..."
"What would happen if I opened a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and participated in the tournament?"
Qian Renxue: "..."
She looked at Jiang Bai, momentarily speechless.
Open a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?
Participate in the Seven Great Sects Tournament?
Wouldn’t that be...
Fighting among family members?
She took a deep breath, suppressing her speechless frustration: "You...are you serious?"
