Douluo Dalu: Every Breath Steals Tang San's Women

Chapter 70: 50,000-Year Human-Faced Demon Spider Emperor Right Leg Bone

The next day!

Heaven Dou City, Dugu Residence!

Heaven Dou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Sect Master Ning Fengzhi had come to visit once again.

Ning Fengzhi’s expression was somewhat dazed.

A month ago, he had always shown surface-level respect to Dugu Bo, the weakest Titled Douluo, but had truly thought little of him.

In just one month, he no longer dared to harbor any contempt for Dugu Bo; this visit was specifically to offer an apology.

After deciding to yield yesterday, Ning Fengzhi had notified Xue Qinghe, requesting the Heaven Dou Imperial Family to intervene and mediate the conflict between their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo was a Guest Elder of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and Ning Fengzhi was Xue Qinghe’s teacher.

To the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, both were equally important, as both were forces relied upon by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

If both sides fought until neither could yield, it would be a loss for the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

Therefore, Xue Qinghe appeared today partly because of Ning Fengzhi’s request, and partly because of Emperor Xue Ye’s demand.

After his reflections, Ning Fengzhi whispered to the Xue Qinghe beside him, "Qinghe, I leave today’s matters to you."

Xue Qinghe smiled warmly, his aura gentle as jade. Hearing this, he replied softly, "Teacher, rest assured. Although Your Excellency Jade Phosphor uses ruthless methods, he left room for maneuver when he acted, so he must have been waiting for you to come. In a moment, we will lower our posture, and Your Excellency Jade Phosphor will surely be willing to resolve this matter amicably."

Ning Fengzhi sighed softly, "I hope so!"

"Uncle Sword, I have wronged you today by having you accompany me on this trip."

This last sentence was spoken by Ning Fengzhi to Chen Xin.

The one protecting Ning Fengzhi today was Chen Xin, not Gu Rong.

This was a deliberate arrangement by Ning Fengzhi.

Currently, Chen Xin’s severe injuries had not yet healed, and he could only exert fifty percent of his full strength, which was not enough to shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the Sect.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was currently in a state of panic, and it was essential to have a powerful figure to preside over the overall situation; Bone Douluo Gu Rong, whose strength remained undiminished, was the most suitable candidate.

There was another reason: Gu Rong’s reputation outside was not very good; he had a foul mouth, a short temper, and had once clearly shown hostility towards Dugu Bo and Lan Chen.

Ning Fengzhi really could not guarantee that if he brought Gu Rong along, it would not be perceived as a provocation by Dugu Bo.

It must be said that Ning Fengzhi considered matters very thoroughly, but from another perspective, his excessive caution also proved that he was indeed afraid.

Chen Xin, who was following beside Ning Fengzhi, nodded with a calm expression, "Fengzhi, do not mind it; all of this is for the Sect."

The current Chen Xin appeared no different from the past, but anyone familiar with him could see that there was no light in his eyes.

The Chen Xin of the past, whose eyes were as sharp as a goshawk, containing clanging Sword Intent, and who was too intimidating to look at directly, had completely vanished.

His Sword Heart was tarnished!

Now, Chen Xin’s eyes revealed a hint of gloom, as if he were just an old man nearing the end of his life, rather than the Sword Douluo who once shook the continent.

The most serious loss for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School this time might be that Chen Xin had lost his former spirit and sharpness.

Even if three or five hundred ordinary Spirit Masters died, relying on the financial resources of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he believed that it would not take long to recruit enough Spirit Masters to make up for the losses.

Sword Douluo was a Titled Douluo, the pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; he had lost his spirit and sharpness.

This was what pained Ning Fengzhi the most.

This was not because Chen Xin was fragile, as if he could not afford to lose.

During the original Soul Hunting operation, facing the siege of four Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall, Chen Xin, with Ning Fengzhi’s assistance, had fought one against three, or even one against four.

Even though he eventually lost an arm, it was a glorious defeat.

Not only was his Sword Heart not tarnished, but it actually led Chen Xin to a realization, allowing him to break through from level 96 spirit power to level 97 spirit power in one go.

But this time, Chen Xin had lost to the weakest Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo, in a one-on-one duel.

Every time he thought of this point, Chen Xin would hate himself immensely; it was estimated that he would never be able to recover in this lifetime.

Returning to the present, Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and knocked on the door, and that vermilion gate was quickly opened.

Dugu Bo’s butler walked out; as if he had expected it, he led Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi into the Dugu Residence, guiding them all the way to the main hall.

Dugu Bo, Lu Chen, and Dugu Yan were waiting in this main hall.

Dugu Bo’s gaze swept over Xue Qinghe, then looked at Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin. The corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably, his back was straight, and his eyes revealed a hint of amusement.

The current Dugu Bo exuded the aura of a powerhouse from head to toe, making Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin opposite him feel immense pressure.

This was a feeling that radiated from the inside out.

In the past, when facing Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, Dugu Bo had always been somewhat reserved and cautious.

But now it was completely different; ever since Dugu Bo defeated Chen Xin, it was as if he had broken the shackles in his heart, and that aura of a powerhouse had naturally emerged.

Calm and composed!

He stared directly at the Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin opposite him, openly and with an aggressive, oppressive gaze.

Under such a gaze, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin appeared somewhat cautious instead.

Perhaps no one expected that the status of both sides would have such a reversal.

Dugu Bo curled the corners of his mouth, looking down at Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin with a condescending gaze, and said in a somewhat sarcastic tone, "School Master Ning, Sword Douluo, we meet again. The previous battle was very satisfying for me. I wonder when you will have time for us to have another round."

These words were very harsh!

Chen Xin could barely control his anger; did Dugu Bo really think that just because he had defeated him once, he could defeat him every single time!

Ning Fengzhi’s anger also surged, but he quickly suppressed it; after all, they were not here to quarrel this time.

His eyes were full of humiliation, but as he closed and reopened them, only humility and respect remained in his eyes.

Ning Fengzhi lowered his posture significantly; as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Sect Master, facing Dugu Bo, he took the initiative to bow and salute, "Your Excellency Jade Phosphor, everything before was a misunderstanding. We have come this time specifically to apologize."

"We are extremely sorry for the trouble caused to you, your granddaughter, and Mr. Lan Chen, and we guarantee that such things will never happen again."

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has already suffered huge losses; more than 300 Spirit Masters have died, and this number is rising every day. There are also over 500 Spirit Masters who are suffering in agony from the toxic poison."

"We ask that Your Excellency Jade Phosphor provide the antidote. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will be eternally grateful and will certainly offer compensation that will satisfy you all."

After Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, Xue Qinghe stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency Jade Phosphor, this is my second time acting as a lobbyist. I have a rough understanding of the ins and outs of the matter; it was my teacher who was in the wrong, but those Spirit Masters of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are innocent."

"Their families and friends have all suffered great grief because of this matter. Please, Your Excellency Jade Phosphor, have pity on them and provide the antidote to save their lives."

"I guarantee in the name of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely give you all a satisfactory explanation. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School breaks its promise, the entire Heaven Dou Imperial Family will never let the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School off easily."

Watching the bowing, apologizing Ning Fengzhi and the mediating Xue Qinghe, Dugu Bo decided to stop while he was ahead.

He could not truly destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; if he did, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong would definitely fight him to the death regardless of the cost.

The Heaven Dou Imperial Family, which had close ties with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, would also definitely be furious, and there would be no place for him in the Heaven Dou Empire.

Even Spirit Hall would definitely act hypocritically, defining him as a fallen Spirit Master and dispatching powerhouses to hunt him down.

After all, exterminating an entire Sect was too heinous a nature.

Spirit Hall prided itself on justice and would never let go of this opportunity to improve its reputation and prestige.

Dugu Bo decided to stop while he was ahead, but that did not mean he was willing to help them detoxify; in order to help Lan Chen vent his anger, those Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Spirit Masters had to die.

He said in a calm tone, "Since this is a misunderstanding, then it is fine to resolve it. However, I do not have the antidote you want in my hands; you have found the wrong person. If there is nothing else, you may leave."

Dugu Bo did not admit to poisoning them, nor was he willing to provide the antidote.

Ning Fengzhi’s expression did not change; he knew things would not go so smoothly. He then reached for his storage soul guidance device and took out a brocade box from it.

He opened the brocade box in front of everyone and said, "Your Excellency Jade Phosphor, you are a Great Grandmaster of the poison Dao; you must have a way to detoxify. Even if you do not have the antidote on hand right now, you must be able to concoct the antidote at any time."

"As long as Your Excellency Jade Phosphor is willing to take action to detoxify, this Spirit Bone will be our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School’s token of gratitude. This is a 50,000-year Human-Faced Demon Spider Emperor Right Leg Bone."
