Serpent Spear Douluo seemed to recall something and quickly said, "Oh right, Holy Daughter, earlier I sensed Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong rush to the Imperial Palace Great Hall, but they soon left the palace!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was not surprised at all. Instead, she calmly replied, "Oh, that matter? It's because the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect was suddenly attacked by abyssal creatures, and their current situation is dire!"
Serpent Spear Douluo pondered, "I see, no wonder they left so suddenly..."
Qian Renxue interrupted the topic, then asked, "By the way, where is Porcupine Douluo? Since returning to the palace, I haven't seen him."
Serpent Spear Douluo was taken aback, also a bit puzzled, "That guy Porcupine, he should have gone back to the Worship Hall to report to the Grand Elder."
"But logically, he should have returned by now."
Shaking his head again, "Maybe something delayed him."
Qian Renxue nodded in agreement, "Hmm, that must be it."
Porcupine Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo wouldn't leave her side without a reason!
They hadn't returned by now, so something unexpected must have happened!
After the words fell, the atmosphere inside the palace became extraordinarily quiet...
A few minutes later, Serpent Spear Douluo couldn't help but break the silence...
"Holy Daughter, while we weren't around, Prince Xue Xing seemed to have resolved the issues at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, is there anything else we need to do?"
His intent was clear...
Should they create more problems for that Xue Xing guy!
Otherwise, he might turn his attention to dealing with them!
Qian Renxue decisively rejected the suggestion, "No need, the Martial Soul Hall has just reached a collaboration with the royal household and the upper three families, let's restrain ourselves for now."
"As for Xue Xing, no matter. He only has some authority at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he can't affect our plans."
Serpent Spear Douluo dared not contradict, "Yes, Holy Daughter!!"
Just then, a voice sounded from outside the door...
"Brother, may I come in??"
This familiar voice made Qian Renxue's brow slightly furrow...
Immediately, she activated her skull skill to transform into Xue Qinghe...
"Come in!"
Soon, Xue Beng pushed the door open and walked in...
Seeing Xue Qinghe, he kept his expression unchanged and said, "Brother, I hope I'm not disturbing your rest?"
Xue Qinghe revealed an inscrutable smile, "Of course not, just that you suddenly came to see me today, is there something you need?"
Xue Beng, naturally resistant to his smile, calmly answered, "No urgent matter, I just heard from our brotherly interactions, that the Martial Soul Hall and the royal household, along with the upper three families, have reached a collaboration?"
"Is that true?"
Xue Qinghe's eyes slightly narrowed, "Indeed, did Father tell you this?"
The Xue Beng of the past, even in front of him, would be timid and reserved!
Yet now, he dared to face him alone!
It seems Tang Yuehua truly taught him many things!
Of course, most importantly, he still hadn't guessed the former's purpose in coming here!
A bit troublesome...
....
Seeing the abyssal creatures continuing to launch attacks without any intent of retreat...
The disciples of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect were also getting a bit aggravated....
"How long has this battle gone on, and those abyssal creatures still refuse to give up??"
"Seeing their unending attacks, they seem determined to target the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect until they're all dead!"
"Damn it, they know they can't break through our defense, yet they refuse to give up, is it merely to wear down the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect's strength??"
"Hmph, so what, with the Sect Master and the two seniors here, these abyssal creatures are hardly a threat!"
Ning Fengzhi naturally heard their words, but his expression remained unchanged...
Currently, the abyssal creatures breaking through the defense line seemed highly unlikely!
Continuing the assault was only sending themselves to death!
It's just....
If these abyssal creatures keep attacking, it'll place the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect into a stalemate!
Thinking of this, the voices of Gu Rong and Chen Xin sounded beside him...
"So frustrating, these creatures are endless, how many abyssal creatures were sent in this attack?"
"Who wouldn't say so, kill one group, another comes, they've painted the territory of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect with their blood!"
Seeing them, Ning Fengzhi quickly came back to his senses, concernedly asking, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, are you alright?"
Gu Rong shook his head, answered, "We're fine, just a bit aggravated by these abyssal creatures"
Chen Xin agreed deeply, "Yes, it's like swatting flies, no threat, but so irksome"
"Even if reinforcements come, they might not repel these ignorant creatures"
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but stroke his chin...
"Uncle Bone, Uncle Sword, do you think some powerful abyssal creature is driving these weaker creatures to attack?"
Gu Rong immediately understood the implication...
"Feng Zhi, are you suggesting...as long as we deal with whoever's commanding from the back, the Abyssal Creature Army will collapse by itself??"
Ning Fengzhi slightly nodded, "Correct, for these creatures to gather in such numbers and attack the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, there must be an intelligent abyssal creature directing them!"
"By killing it, we might resolve the current situation"
Chen Xin also suddenly realized, "That seems logical, then what are we waiting for? Gu Rong and I will charge to the Abyssal Army's rear and kill those troublesome leaders!"
I must be getting old, having forgotten such an obvious thing!!
Ning Fengzhi hurriedly stopped him, "Uncle Sword, you mustn't, we don't know how many intelligent abyssal creatures there are, or even their strength"
"A rash attack could put us in a passive position"
Gu Rong nodded in agreement, "Yes... Feng Zhi is right, I've fought some powerful abyssal creatures, and their strength is not weaker than Hyper Douluo"
"Most importantly, they have unique abilities, and a slight mistake could result in a trap!"
"Like the Sacred Pillars on Sea God's Island, perhaps due to underestimating them, suffered quite some casualties"
Chen Xin, feeling a headache, "This won't work, that won't work, what should we do? We can't just keep defending passively, can we?"
"The abyssal creatures are endless, but the disciples' Soul Power is not!"
"Plus, continual losses, even if our Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is large and powerful, our overall strength will regress several years!!"
After all, Seven Treasures Glaze Sect has very few battle-type Soul Masters!
