Chapter 259 Ning Fengzhi's Ruthlessness
During the time that Qian Daoliu and An Yue were talking, in order to prevent other forces from noticing anything amiss and thus deducing An Yue's relationship with the Spirit Hall, the battle between Qian Daoliu and An Yue never stopped.
After their conversation, the two flew towards the ground. When the crowd saw Qian Daoliu and An Yue, they noticed that both their clothes were tattered and their auras were weaker. An Yue was injured, so her aura was only slightly better than Qian Daoliu's. It was clear to everyone that the Spirit Hall was slightly inferior, but An Yue didn't gain much of an advantage either.
As Qian Daoliu approached the ground, his face darkened, and he flew away, while An Yue returned directly to the Ice Palace's group.
After the battle, the various factions exchanged pleasantries and quickly departed. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, however, left with the Ice Palace.
After leaving Spirit City, Ning Fengzhi couldn't wait to ask An Yue for information, wanting to understand the strength of the Spirit Hall. After all, he had been working to unite the three upper sects, like a wolf coveting the Wolf King's position, but he didn't have enough strength himself and had been lying in wait. As soon as the Wolf King showed signs of weakness, he would call on his friends and rush in to divide the Wolf King's inheritance.
Unfortunately, Ning Fengzhi's strength was mediocre, though his ambition was great. If it weren't for Qian Daoliu's reluctance to incite bloodshed and his constant suppression of Bibi Dong, the so-called Upper Three Sects would have long been history given the Spirit Hall's strength. After all, the Spirit Hall's number of titled Douluo was no joke; the combined number of titled Douluo of the two great empires didn't even equal that of the Spirit Hall.
Although Ning Fengzhi was watching the battle from the ground, he was only a support-type Soul Saint after all. He could only know the general outline of the battle and guess that Qian Daoliu was slightly inferior. He didn't know anything else.
“My strength is naturally greater than Qian Daoliu’s; he is no match for me.”
"The Palace Master is very powerful, so why don't you just kill him or cripple him to prevent future troubles and remove this source of all evil from the Martial Soul World?"
After hearing his words, An Yue looked at him as if he were an idiot. Killing the big boss of the Spirit Hall in Spirit City? Wasn't that courting death? She'd be lucky to even get back.
Besides, at their level, to kill someone, at least three people need to gang up on them; otherwise, the price to pay for killing someone alone would be too high.
Besides, the opponent isn't stupid. If they can't win, can't they just run away? Do they really think their enemies are all idiots who would fight to the death even if they can't win?
In An Yue's own mind, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was labeled as unconquerable. When the Spirit Hall was about to unify the continent, the people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would be used as sacrificial offerings. Even if they were subdued, they would not be given high positions. As the saying goes, "A wolf in the mountains becomes arrogant when it gains power."
"Ahem, Feng Zhi..." Sword Douluo secretly gave Ning Feng Zhi a wink.
"Sect Leader Ning has lofty ambitions, so I won't disturb your reverie any longer. Let's go."
After saying that, An Yue didn't listen to Ning Fengzhi say anything more. She then led the group from the Ice Palace away from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's caravan and quickly disappeared from sight.
"Feng Zhi, you're being foolish! Even if you wanted to destroy the Spirit Hall, you shouldn't have said it out loud, and you shouldn't have used Palace Master An Yue as a pawn. The fact that she didn't hold it against you is already a great act of magnanimity."
"Uncle Jian, it was unintentional. I didn't think twice before I spoke..."
“Feng Zhi, your strength is only at the Soul Saint level. You don’t have a clear understanding of the strength of a Title Douluo. The gap between each level of a Title Douluo is quite large. The gap widens as you go further. In the end, even within the same level, the strength can be worlds apart.”
This means that killing someone of the same level is very difficult, especially those old monsters. Who knows what trump cards they might have? After all, the stronger you are, the more afraid you are of death.
