Ning Liu gestured for him to sit down.
"Speak."
"My lord, let me tell you the good news first."
A smile appeared on Dugu Bo's face.
"As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Sect Master Ning Fengzhi has already ordered that their department specializing in the creation of hidden weapons, along with all the personnel and equipment, be incorporated into the Tang Sect of our Glazed Heaven."
Ning Liu nodded upon hearing this.
This is indeed good news.
"We must accept this favor from Sect Master Ning Fengzhi."
"Go back and tell your subordinates that these finished Zhuge crossbows and other hidden weapons should be supplied to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School first, without fail."
"Yes, my lord!"
Dugu Bo immediately responded.
"There's another piece of good news."
His smile deepened.
"That old Titan guy is actually quite capable."
"He personally went to invite Lou Gao, the master blacksmith and president of the Tiandou City Blacksmith Association, to come over."
"How tall is the building?"
Ning Liu was somewhat surprised.
In the original story, this person was a ruthless individual who was willing to sacrifice himself to forge the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, the Tang Clan's number one hidden weapon.
He's a true master foundry!
Where is he now?
"They are currently conducting an inspection at the Tang Sect, with Elder Titan personally accompanying them."
Dugu Bo chuckled.
"It seems that Your Majesty intends to keep him?"
"certainly."
Ning Liu did not hesitate.
"We must keep this kind of talent no matter what."
"Rest assured, my lord."
Dugu Bo patted his chest.
"That old Titan guy has already assured me that there won't be any major problems."
"That guy in the building is a metal fanatic. He's spent his whole life studying casting. He couldn't take his eyes off our Tang Clan's blueprints after seeing them."
"That's good."
Ning Liu stroked his chin and then said.
"If he is willing to stay, the position of Tang Sect Master will be given to him."
"After all, professional matters should be left to professionals."
He paused, then looked at Dugu Bo.
"From now on, you and Madam Poison will serve as the deputy sect leaders of the Tang Clan."
Dugu Bo was taken aback at first, but he didn't have any thoughts about being relegated to the position of deputy sect leader.
The position of deputy sect leader is just a nominal one.
He never wanted to do these jobs in the first place.
Moreover, the Lord is... creating an opportunity for him and that woman!
"No problem! I'll follow your orders, Lord!"
He couldn't wait to see that poisonous woman right now and give her a proper explanation.
However, he forcibly suppressed his excitement.
"My lord, besides these two good things, there is one more... not so good thing."
Dugu Bo's expression darkened slightly as he said this.
"speak."
"A batch of Tang Clan hidden weapons has recently appeared on the market."
Dugu Bo's voice carried a hint of anger.
"Although the workmanship is average, the variety is very complete, including hidden arrows and arrows that shoot through sand."
"Most importantly, they sell them cheaply!"
"oh?"
Ning Liu listened, but his face remained expressionless. He even picked up his teacup and took a small sip.
"My lord!"
Dugu Bo was getting a little anxious.
"This is clearly someone stealing our technology and deliberately causing trouble for us!"
"We must investigate this thoroughly immediately and find the mastermind behind it, otherwise they will only become more and more rampant!"
Ning Liu put down his teacup and finally smiled.
"No need to check."
“I know who it is.”
Dugu Bo suddenly looked up, his face filled with disbelief.
"You know?"
"Who dares to be so bold?"
Ning Liu waved his hand.
"Whoever he is, let him do whatever he wants."
"All you need to do is declare to the outside world that the Tang Sect of Liuli Heaven is the only authentic one."
"this……"
Dugu Bo was stunned.
Your technology was stolen, and you're not even angry? You're just letting it go?
However, he did as instructed.
"Yes, my lord, I understand."
Dugu Bo bowed and withdrew.
The room fell silent again.
Ning Liu leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
Tang San.
Who else could it be but him?
If Tang San hadn't brought the hidden weapons to the auction, he wouldn't have gotten the blueprints!
With all sorts of rare treasures appearing at his own auction, he would naturally take out some Tang Clan hidden weapons to exchange for cultivation resources.
In the past, Ning Liu might have sent someone to deal with it.
But now, he simply can't muster that interest.
It's just a Tang Clan hidden weapon!
When a person's vision has already set its sights on the entire Douluo Continent and on becoming a god, how could they care about an ant under their feet trying to secretly carry away a few grains of rice?
Moreover, because of the system's feedback, there have been too many things happening lately, and he needs to sort them out properly.
It concerns their own strength and the development of Liuli Tian.
As for Tang San, he wasn't particularly concerned about that variable.
The system has begun returning items related to becoming a god!
He has confidence in the system and in himself.
Just do your own thing well, and you'll definitely have a chance to become a god!
...
On the other side.
Deep within a certain Soul Beast Forest.
The air was filled with a pungent stench of blood and decay.
Tang San sat cross-legged, and the fourth spirit ring on his body, a black spirit ring, was slowly rotating and being absorbed.
In front of him was the corpse of a gigantic spider soul beast.
Flander stood a short distance away, patting off the spider silk and dirt that clung to his clothes.
"Oh shit."
He couldn't help but curse.
"This cave spider is truly insidious."
"There are traps and spider webs everywhere underfoot, making it impossible to guard against them."
"Although he has only cultivated for a little over ten thousand years, he is still incredibly troublesome to deal with."
Yu Xiaogang ignored Flander's complaints.
His entire attention was focused on Tang San, who was absorbing the spirit ring.
"The mistress's Blue Silver Grass is much more resilient than I imagined."
His voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and fervor.
"That cultivation method that plunders life force and devours energy is a comprehensive enhancement for him."
He clenched his fists as he looked at the black spirit ring on Tang San's body that was about to be absorbed.
"The fourth spirit ring is at the ten-thousand-year level!"
"This is an unprecedented feat in the entire history of the Soul Master world!"
"I'm afraid there will be no one like them in the future!"
Flanders nodded upon hearing this.
Then, after some hesitation, he spoke.
"Xiao Gang."
"What are your thoughts on this Continental Elite Tournament for Advanced Soul Master Academies?"
"I have already submitted the application for the competition slots to Shrek Academy."
"But...you know perfectly well that right now, besides Xiao San and my disciple, the Evil Fire Phoenix, who else in the academy is worthy of mention?"
