Chapter 105 I Really Must Control You Properly!
Ning Fengzhi's smile froze on his Face. As the Sect Master of the Upper Three Sects " Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, how could he not know about the affairs of the Star Luo Imperial Family?
Not to mention, the identities of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing were far from simple.
One was the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, the other was the legitimate second daughter of the Star Luo Empire's Hell Grand Duke.
As a merchant who calculated things down to the bone, Ning Fengzhi didn't particularly care about Dai Mubai's life or death.
To him, this was just another casual investment he had tossed out.
" Rongrong, that girl named Zhu Zhuqing... her identity is a rather troublesome matter."
'I am very happy that you thought of recruiting Geniuses for the Sect. However, it would indeed be somewhat inappropriate to antagonize the Star Luo Empire over a single Zhu Zhuqing."
Ning Fengzhi slowly voiced his thoughts, which immediately made Ning Rongrong unhappy.
She had finally mustered the courage to try and do something for the Sect, and now her evil father was making her lose so completely?
" Grandpa Sword! Grandpa Gu! Look at Dad!"
The two old bachelors who had been single for half their lives truly regarded Ning Rongrong as their own Granddaughter. How could they withstand her acting so spoiled?
Immediately, Gu Rong spoke up, 'Fengzhi, it's just the Star Luo Empire. Even if their Emperor and Empress's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger, possesses the combat power of a Titled Douluo, in the end, they are not true Titled Douluos."
'I refuse to believe that Dai Tianfeng would dare not give me Face."
Chen Xin chimed in from the side.
This left Ning Fengzhi utterly helpless.
As a merchant who calculated things down to the bone, Ning Fengzhi quickly made a decision.
'Uncle Sword, Uncle Gu, please don't get agitated. I have my own arrangements."
Ning Fengzhi suddenly changed his tone as he spoke to his filial daughter, " Rongrong, that girl Zhu Zhuqing's situation is somewhat complicated. However, for our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to take her in would merely require paying some price."
Hearing Ning Fengzhi say this, Ning Rongrong's eyes instantly lit up.
Before she could speak, Ning Fengzhi continued, 'But, Rongrong, you should understand some things are not that simple."
'Go back and tell that girl to Cultivate diligently. If, in the end, they still lose to the Star Luo Empire's Crown Prince, then, I will personally go to the Star Luo Empire with Uncle Sword and Uncle Gu to negotiate."
'However, after that, she will no longer be a member of the Star Luo Empire's Zhu Family, but a disciple of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. You need to make this clear to her."
Although Ning Rongrong didn't know what kind of scheme her father was planning, she understood one thing: regardless of the final outcome, their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could intervene to protect Zhu Zhuqing's life.
'Hehe, Dad is the best!"
Seeing her goal achieved, Ning Rongrong scurried out of the Sect Master's hall, leaving behind three old men staring at each other.
'Fengzhi, do you have some plan?"
Gu Rong asked.
Ning Fengzhi slowly nodded, a glint of wisdom flashing in his eyes.
'Indeed, Uncle Gu. I had Rongrong go back and tell that girl named Zhu Zhuqing that our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will ultimately step in to protect her. So, whether she eventually becomes the Empress of the Star Luo Empire, or fails in the competition and comes to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to become Rongrong's guardian, we can, to the greatest extent possible, secure her loyalty."
'You must understand, the hope grasped by a person in the Face of despair is the most precious."
'Ultimately, I don't want to make relations with the Star Luo Empire too ugly."
'Right now, the Spirit Hall is the greater concern. We still need to stand united."
...
Meanwhile, on the other side, Jiang Li, who had returned to the Tang Sect, immediately chose to go into seclusion.
He slowly projected his consciousness into the Human Emperor Banner, awakening Tang Ba's Soul form.
When this Sixth Elder of the Clear Sky Sect opened his eyes, he was utterly bewildered. All he saw was a pitch-black expanse, as if countless vengeful spirits were wailing in his ears.
'Th-this... is this the World after death?"
Even in his current Soul form, he could feel the terror of this place.
Waves of ominous sensations struck directly at the crown of his head.
'The World after death?"
'Inherently evil members of the Tang Clan, of course this isn't. This is inside my Karma treasure."
'Hehehehehe——"
...
'Who?!"
Tang Ba instantly became extremely alert. Even though he was now just a wisp of a Soul, the pain he felt at the moment of his death was still fresh in his memory—it wasn't fake.
In other words, he had truly died.
On the Douluo Continent, there existed an extremely wicked type of Fallen Spirit Master who enjoyed using methods that disturbed the deceased to rapidly increase their Cultivation. Could it be...
Tang Ba felt a chill run through his heart, not daring to think further.
Suddenly, before his eyes, the thick, outward-flowing purple Qi slowly coalesced into a human form. Tang Ba focused his gaze and was shocked to discover that the utterly evil person before him was actually Jiang Li, the one who had killed him earlier?!
'Y-you... you're a Fallen Spirit Master?!"
'Damn it! That beast Tang Hao actually entrusted his son to someone like you!"
The previous Jiang Li had been brimming with an aura of life. But the Jiang Li standing before him now possessed an aura more evil than the most wicked thing he had ever seen in his life.
Such an extreme change instantly overloaded Tang Ba's mind.
Before he could react, he saw Jiang Li's hand move slightly, and his Soul form could no longer move an inch.
Tap, tap, tap—
Every footstep Jiang Li took sounded like a funeral bell from Hell.
'Truly inherently evil Tang Family members. The first thing upon waking is to slander me as a Fallen Spirit Master. Unforgivable!"
'Originally, I intended to extract the useful information from your mind and then completely annihilate this useless wisp of your Soul. But now it seems it would be more practical for me to control you, to use the great hammer in your hands to take down those filthy-blooded Tang Family members one by one."
...
Tang Ba wanted to struggle, even wanted to say something, but found his body completely out of his control.
Control him to kill his own clansmen?
A person should, at the very least, not and cannot be so evil.
And what did Jiang Li mean by 'useful information' in his mind?
'Damn it, why is it like this..."
However, Tang Ba did not receive any explanation from Jiang Li. He could only feel his consciousness rapidly fading away...
