Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan.
No, it should be the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan now.
The ceremony had ended, and the various forces departed one after another.
After all, many forces just wanted to see the current development state of the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan and observe the so-called Alchemy Pavilion and Soul Tool Pavilion. They indeed gained quite a lot.
After Ning Rongrong left, the masters of the Alchemy Pavilion and Soul Tool Pavilion officially made their appearance.
Dugu bo at level 95, and Lou Gao at level 85.
Especially Lou Gao, whose eighth Soul Ring was also a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, was truly terrifying.
Everything about the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's grand ceremony was spreading across the entire Douluo Continent at an extremely fast pace, though it still needed some time to ferment.
After the clan leaders and elders of the various sects left.
At this time, only a few forces remained at the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan.
Tang Chen and Tang Xiao from the Clear Sky School, Yu Yuanzhen from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, as well as Xue Ke representing the official side of the Heaven Dou Empire and the accompanying Bi Ji.
Each of them had their own reasons for staying.
"Clan Leader Yu, our Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's goal has always been peaceful trade. We do not intend to take any side, be it the Clear Sky School or the Spirit Hall."
"Our clan has sufficient strength to protect our own safety."
"Clan Leader Yu saw it earlier, right?"
"As for the Spirit Hall, we cannot determine which of the two Angel Gods that appeared before and after the new year is real, or if neither is real."
"But one thing we can infer."
"That is, the game between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky School likely involves the god level."
"We do not want to get involved in this muddy water."
Yu Yuanzhen also knew that given the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's current situation, it was difficult to take a stance, especially with the unclear positions of the various parties.
"Clan Leader Ning, have you never considered that Xue Qinghe might not be as pure and good as you know? I once spoke with Prince Xue Xing, and although there is no evidence, ..."
"...the other princes likely all died by his hand."
"And also, the Spirit Hall stealing the nation."
"No matter how you think about it, if Xue Qinghe joins forces with the Spirit Hall, all the sects on the continent... I presume Clan Leader Ning won't be able to stay out of it then!"
"Given the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's current scale, no ruler would allow it."
"Ah..." Ning Fengzhi sighed, "Clan Leader Yu, since you've put it this way, I'll be frank with you."
"Ning Rongrong has a chance to impact level 100 and become a god, and as for Qian Renxue..."
"You heard it earlier too."
"Sea God Island, the Clear Sky School, and even the Spirit Hall are all involved at the god level. We cannot make decisions arbitrarily and can only declare neutrality. At least they wouldn't dare to offend us casually."
"Clan Leader Yu, I'll also give you a suggestion!" Ning Fengzhi sighed, "Don't act impulsively, especially regarding Yu Xiaogang. Don't provoke Bibi Dong's nerves at the Spirit Hall anymore."
"Clan Leader Ning, do you know some inside information?" Yu Yuanzhen was feeling utterly anxious at this moment.
There was no other way. It was just as Ning Fengzhi said.
The Spirit Hall had the Angel God, the Clear Sky School's Tang Chen also seemed related to a god, and Sea God Island went without saying – the Sea God mentioned by the Angel God before.
He always felt that the reason the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan could develop so rapidly these years was related to their choices.
Self-preservation had been perfected to the extreme.
"No inside information. When strength is insufficient, tuck your tail and behave." Ning Fengzhi's words made the usually tough Yu Yuanzhen's face stiffen.
"Clan Leader Yu, do you know why the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan has been so low-key all these years?"
"That's because we didn't have the capability to mutually assured destruction with the Spirit Hall."
"Now we have it, so there's no need to hide anymore."
"I've said all I can. Clan Leader Yu, if there's nothing else, please return!" Ning Fengzhi issued the order to see the guest out.
Although the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had many entangled conflicts over the years, their relationship had also been mended and patched up over the last few centuries.
Therefore, he didn't want the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to be destroyed.
Of course, he was only reminding them.
Yu Yuanzhen at level 96, to be honest, was somewhat inadequate in the current grand era.
Perhaps that True Dragon Nine Crowns could make people wary!
But that kind of thing likely came at a great cost.
Yu Yuanzhen's expression changed several times, then he slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Ning Fengzhi:
"Yuanzhen has learned his lesson."
Yu Yuanzhen left, his entire person seeming somewhat desolate.
Not long after, an attendant informed Ning Fengzhi that Tang Chen and Tang Xiao had arrived.
Ning Rongrong, however, had entered the reception room a step ahead.
After all, Tang Chen was a Limit Douluo.
If he were to suddenly become violent, she would be really worried about Ning Fengzhi's safety if she wasn't there.
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were ultimately only level 98, still quite far from the Quasi-God at level 99.
Ning Rongrong sat to the side, watching as Tang Chen entered with the one-armed Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao's complexion didn't look too good.
It was probably due to the aftereffects of the severed arm, which he hadn't adapted to yet.
Phantom pain, from a scientific perspective, still existed.
"Lord Tang Chen, and Clan Leader Tang, I never expected you to attend the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's grand ceremony. Fengzhi is truly honored."
"Clan Leader Ning, you are too polite. The three upper sects share the same breath." Tang Chen waved his hand and said with a smile, "Clan Leader Ning attended the Clear Sky School's re-entrance ceremony last time. It's only proper etiquette to return the favor."
"Speaking of which, we came this time because we have a matter we'd like to ask for Clan Leader Ning's help with."
"Oh?" Ning Fengzhi expressed slight surprise, "What matter might that be, Lord Tang Chen?"
"Ah, last time at the Spirit Hall, we were inconsiderate and failed to notice Clan Leader Ning's stance. Speaking of it, we were too careless."
"It is already greatly appreciated that Lord Tang Chen does not blame us. I have also spoken to Rongrong about it!"
"Her intervention led to the Clear Sky Douluo being captured by the Spirit Hall. It is truly shameful!"
"No, this has nothing to do with the Young Clan Leader Ning." Tang Chen shook his head, "Rumors say Young Clan Leader Ning is on extremely good terms with His Majesty Qinghe. That Qian Renxue is also related to His Majesty, so it was probably an involuntary act."
After a round of back-and-forth between the two sides, neither could gain the upper hand.
But Ning Fengzhi seemed to have a slight advantage.
Tang Chen was several decades, even a hundred years, older than Ning Fengzhi, but in terms of eloquence, how could someone who only knew how to wield a hammer compare to Ning Fengzhi, who liked cat girls.
"Clan Leader Ning, let's not discuss other matters." Tang Chen finally got to the main point, "I came this time hoping to ask Clan Leader Ning to heal Xiao'er's arm."
"And also, regarding that Marrow Cleansing Pill, I sincerely ask Clan Leader Ning to name a price."
"As for the Marrow Cleansing Pill, since Lord Tang Chen has spoken, it can naturally be done."
"But treating Clan Leader Tang Xiao..." Ning Fengzhi let out a long sigh, "I'll be frank with you! To tell the truth, we do not wish to antagonize the Spirit Hall, and it is quite difficult for us."
"Most of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Clan's industrial chains involve the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall. Clan Leader Tang Xiao, and Lord Tang Chen, do you understand what I mean?"
Tang Xiao's heart sank upon hearing this.
If there was no way to recover here, then hope was even slimmer elsewhere.
"Name a price!"
"I, Tang Chen, am a straightforward person. If it couldn't be done or you didn't want to do it, Clan Leader Ning, you wouldn't have used words like 'difficult'."
Tang Chen, after all, was an old hand, different from Tang Xiao, and quickly spotted the loophole in Ning Fengzhi's words.
"Ah!" Ning Fengzhi sighed, "To regrow a severed arm, with my Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, it's currently impossible."
"Things like limb regeneration, whether it's the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda or the Eight Treasures Glazed Pagoda, are somewhat lacking in terms of healing."
As Ning Fengzhi spoke, his gaze turned to Ning Rongrong, who was sitting to the side seemingly lost in thought.
"Girl, what do you think?"
