The morning in Tian Dou City lacked the freshness of the forest, but had more of the bustle exclusive to cities.
"Whoa—"
"Impressive!"
Even in Tian Dou City, Yang Fan rarely saw such impressive architecture.
Looking over the wall...
A seven-story pagoda building suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Magnificent, glorious!
Every brick and tile exuded the scent of money.
"Who are you looking for?"
A gatekeeper with a straight posture and neat clothes stepped forward.
His voice was gentle yet polite!
"My name is Yang Fan."
"I'm here today specifically to visit Sect Leader Ning."
Because of this Elite Tournament, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were temporarily staying in Tian Dou City.
It was said this residence was personally selected and gifted to Ning Fengzhi by Emperor Xue Ye.
The location was quite good!
Only a wall away from the Tian Dou Imperial Palace.
It could be seen that Emperor Xue Ye had really put his heart into this.
This location...
Once there was any disturbance at the Tian Dou Imperial Palace, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi could arrive at the first moment.
"Please wait a moment."
The gatekeeper turned and walked in.
What remained besides the other three gatekeepers were Yang Fan and Dugu Bo, who came together this time.
"Kid!"
"You called this old man along, aren't you afraid the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will do something to you?"
Dugu Bo smiled.
"That won't happen!"
He came to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect openly and aboveboard. If something really happened, could the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect escape responsibility?
Not to mention the distant future!
In the future, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would become a laughingstock of the entire Douluo Continent.
"I'm just afraid my own weight isn't enough."
"So that's why I called you, this famous Title Douluo, to come visit with me."
Dugu Bo glanced sideways.
Stop fucking flattering me here.
Now that he's useful, he becomes a Titled Douluo; when not useful, he has his granddaughter call him grandfather.
...
Not long after...
The gates of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect slowly opened.
It was actually Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin walking out together, with several Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples following behind.
Yang Fan looked at Dugu Bo beside him, then looked inward at himself.
For a moment...
He actually couldn't weigh how much he was worth.
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin personally coming out to greet them was pulling the hospitality to the extreme.
"Poison Douluo, Yang Fan."
"Please come in!"
Yang Fan and Dugu Bo visiting together didn't make Ning Fengzhi feel the slightest bit strange.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's intelligence department had already informed him some time ago about Dugu Bo joining the Breaking Clan.
But until now, he was still curious why someone as aloof and proud as Dugu Bo would willingly join a sect, and the Breaking Clan at that—a second-rate sect on the Douluo Continent.
...
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's residence wasn't one with golden bricks and jade tiles, but everywhere revealed a sense of nobility.
It was said...
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was the wealthiest sect power on the entire Douluo Continent besides Spirit Hall.
Looking at it this way... it was true!
The Breaking Clan was indeed a country bumpkin before the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Little Fan... I wonder if I can address you this way?"
"Of course!"
"Then you don't need to call me Sect Leader Ning in the future either. You and Rongrong can be considered to have become friends through fighting, so just call me Uncle Ning from now on."
"..."
A brief conversation brought both sides closer.
"Are you here to find Rongrong?"
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat knowingly asking here.
If he were really here to find Ning Rongrong, how could he bring Dugu Bo along.
"No!"
"I'm here to find the Sect Leader... Uncle for some matters."
Yang Fan had to explain.
He and this willful young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect really couldn't get along.
...
Entering the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's reception hall, the sect's servants served precious tea at this time.
"Please sit, both of you."
While speaking.
Ning Fengzhi used his eyes to dismiss those around them.
At this moment...
Yang Fan actively stood up and walked forward one step.
"Sect Leader Ning."
"This time I'm representing the Breaking Clan to discuss an alliance."
Dugu Bo almost choked on his tea.
Before coming...
Yang Fan had personally told him about cooperation regarding the Coagulation Powder.
Alliance?
Was this kid planning to tear up the script temporarily?
The Breaking Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were completely unequal in terms of strength, financial resources, and influence on the Douluo Continent.
The most outrageous thing was that Yang Fan actually played the role of alliance initiator in this matter.
Was this kid crazy?
"Alliance?"
"Why an alliance?"
Ning Fengzhi was slightly stunned, a trace of surprise appearing on his refined and gentle face.
Obviously!
The patriarch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also hadn't expected Yang Fan to say such words.
"Shouldn't we?"
Ning Fengzhi was a smart person.
He didn't believe such a smart person couldn't see Spirit Hall's ambitions.
One must know...
In the original work, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was almost completely wiped out by Spirit Hall.
"Kid!"
"Why should our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ally with your Breaking Clan?"
Chen Xin beside him couldn't sit still!
He admitted Yang Fan had talent that made his peers unable to see his back.
But...
Talent was only the basic condition for becoming a powerhouse. Before this talent was realized, it could only be said to be still hopeful.
They could certainly detect Spirit Hall's ambitions, and Ning Fengzhi and Emperor Xue Ye had discussed this matter many times.
Even if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect really wanted to find allies, the current situation should be to find the more powerful Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Because I have a reason the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot refuse."
Chen Xin was suddenly stunned!
Then burst into loud laughter.
"Say it and let me see!"
"I, Chen Xin, want to see what thing can make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect unable to refuse."
Chen Xin found he somewhat liked this Yang family kid.
Arrogant!
But an arrogance that wasn't annoying.
At this moment...
Yang Fan placed his palm on his storage soul guide device.
Golden light flashed!
A strange immortal herb had already appeared.
The roots and leaves were like hanging vines, dense and finely combed, with a golden tulip at the top.
The rich fragrance spread, adding a touch of elegance to this several-hundred-square-meter reception hall.
"This is...?"
Even a great figure like Ning Fengzhi, who had seen much of the world, couldn't help but have obvious fluctuations in his heart.
Although he couldn't name this golden flower, from the rich fragrance permeating the air, he could already feel the preciousness of this immortal herb.
"Kid!"
"This is what you said is the reason the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot refuse?"
Chen Xin admitted this golden tulip was indeed a rare treasure, but if just this one herb wanted to buy the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
That was undervaluing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect too much!
At their level, no matter what kind of immortal herb, it wouldn't have much temptation anymore.
"What if I said this Beautiful Silk Tulip can make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda become the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
