Chapter 176 The Turbulent Continent
But no one expected that the Clear Sky Sect, the number one sect in the Douluo Continent, would back down before the battle even began, abandoning its affiliated clans and leaving the Spirit Hall to vent its anger on them. The Clear Sky Sect then took its direct descendants and went into seclusion.
The Haotian Sect's series of bizarre maneuvers completely baffled Ning Fengzhi. Ning Fengzhi was utterly speechless, because as long as the Haotian Sect harbored any intention of rebellion, Ning Fengzhi, without a doubt, would provide them with ample financial support.
The Haotian Sect's retreat without providing any information left Ning Fengzhi looking like a clown jumping around in circles. The close relationship he had painstakingly built among the three upper sects was also destroyed by the Haotian Sect, which made Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen lose face.
Despite this setback, Ning Fengzhi did not give up. Instead, he worked hard in silence. After all, the family business passed down from his ancestors was going to perish in his hands. How could Ning Fengzhi face the ancestors of the Ning family after he passed away?
Meanwhile, when the Spirit Hall arrived at the Clear Sky Sect's original headquarters, the sect was already deserted. Although the Clear Sky Sect had left behind its four affiliated clans as sacrifices, the Spirit Hall's higher-ups did not intend to make things too difficult for them, since they were not the masterminds. However, even so, the four affiliated clans still suffered great damage.
As for the direct descendants of the Haotian Sect who were out on business and unable to return in time, they were also affected. For a time, those direct descendants of the Haotian Sect who were away suffered heavy casualties. However, even so, the people of the Haotian Sect remained as stubborn as turtles and refused to show their faces.
In Ning Fengzhi's original plan, as long as the Haotian Sect dared to resist the Spirit Hall, he, Ning Fengzhi, would do his utmost to ensure the safety of those who had not returned to the sect in time.
However, the Clear Sky Sect treated Ning Fengzhi like a monkey, so how could he repay evil with kindness and offend the Spirit Hall to help those who had nothing to do with him? Therefore, when the Spirit Hall was hunting down the remnants of the Clear Sky Sect who were active outside, Ning Fengzhi chose to stand by and watch.
After learning that the Ice Palace had no intention of dealing with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Ning Fengzhi stopped bringing up the topic. After all, his previous question had been quite impolite.
After the banquet, all the forces invited by the Ice Palace left Ice City. In no time, all the Soul Masters on the continent knew that another top-tier force had been added to the Douluo Continent.
Meanwhile, the leaders of those forces also understood the terror of the Ice Palace. Therefore, after returning home, they gave their juniors very stern warnings. After all, the Ice Palace didn't even give face to the Spirit Hall, let alone their forces, which were inferior to the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the younger generation of those powerful forces didn't care about anything at first, but after seeing the Ice Palace's behavior, they all restrained themselves, after all, the Ice Palace was just too tough!
The Ice Palace first offended the Spirit Hall, and then it offended the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. To be honest, if the Ice Palace hadn't been strong enough, the Spirit Hall and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would have formed an alliance long ago to jointly attack the Ice Palace!
Therefore, you must be extremely careful when facing the Ice Palace. After all, you only have one life. If you accidentally offend the Ice Palace and cause them to kill you, even if your own faction takes revenge later, do you think you can come back to life?
After Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Bone Douluo personally came to inquire about the situation of the Ice Palace.
"Fengzhi, what is your opinion of the Ice Palace?"
“The Ice Palace is much stronger than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. In my opinion, the Ice Palace is not much weaker than the Spirit Hall! We can cooperate with them, but we should wait a while before forming an alliance and see what kind of character the Ice Palace’s higher-ups have!” Ning Fengzhi replied after thinking for a while.
"Feng Zhi, the Ice Palace matter is a minor issue; the real threat is that person from the Spirit Hall!" Sword Douluo added.
