After listening to Gu Feng's analysis, Ning Fengzhi's pupils contracted slightly, and a storm of shock surged in his heart. However, he maintained the composure befitting a Sect Leader and turned to Chen Xin beside him, asking in a low voice, "Sword Uncle, in your opinion, how strong is Yang Wudi exactly?"
Chen Xin, whose face was usually cold and stern, now showed a rare trace of astonishment. "Fengzhi, this man is truly extraordinary! The Limit Flow is indeed well-deserved. A mere Soul Douluo, yet he can unleash an attack power almost on par with a Titled Douluo. In all my years, I have never seen anything like it!"
Gu Rong sighed softly, "What's even more terrifying is that he doesn't seem to have unleashed his full strength yet!"
Ning Fengzhi was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Chen Xin and Gu Rong to give such high praise to Yang Wudi.
It seemed that he would have to redefine the importance of the Breaking Clan.
Gu Feng had mentioned the Breaking Clan to him before, but at that time, Gu Feng was still young, and Ning Fengzhi was preoccupied with Sect affairs, so he hadn't paid much attention. Later, he simply forgot about it.
Now, it seemed that if they could bring the Breaking Clan under their wing, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would undergo a monumental transformation!
"This is bad. If this continues, I might not live to see the return of my master."
As time ticked by, Titan struggled to fend off Yang Wudi's attacks while frantically searching for a way to turn the tide.
"Unstoppable, unbreakable!"
Yang Wudi's roar echoed through the sky as the Soul Piercing Spear in his hand erupted with a dazzling purple light. Wherever the spear tip pointed, the air seemed to groan under the pressure.
"Buzz!"
The ground cracked like a spider's web, and the powerful Soul Power fluctuations transformed into a tangible hurricane, lifting the surrounding debris into the air.
Titan had no time to react before the spear's light, carrying the force to destroy heaven and earth, pierced through his chest. His body was sent flying like a kite with its string cut.
A mouthful of blood gushed out as Titan fell to one knee. Looking at the blood seeping from his palm, he felt his life force rapidly draining away with the flowing blood. His burly frame could no longer hold itself up, and he collapsed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Yang Wudi didn't even glance at the fallen Titan. He slowly retracted his spear, his voice as cold as ice. "Titan, the calamity that befell you today is entirely your own doing!"
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
At that moment, a series of unhurried claps rang out.
Ning Fengzhi clapped his hands, his eyes filled with admiration. "Elder Yang, your earth-shattering strength has truly opened my eyes. I am in awe!"
Yang Wudi's expression remained calm as he slightly cupped his hands. "Sovereign Ning, you flatter me."
Ning Fengzhi's smile deepened as he extended an invitation. "Elder Yang, you are too modest. This place is too chaotic. Why don't we move elsewhere and continue our conversation?"
Hearing this, Yang Wudi was clearly tempted. After all, his original purpose in coming here was to find Gu Feng of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Now that Ning Fengzhi had invited him, it was the perfect opportunity.
After a brief moment of thought, Yang Wudi agreed. "Very well!"
Before leaving, Ning Fengzhi glanced at Titan, who was now barely breathing on the ground, and was about to speak.
Chen Xin stepped forward and said, "His meridians are severed, and his life force is nearly extinguished. Even if he manages to survive, he will be nothing but a cripple."
Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, the killing intent in his eyes gradually dissipating. He then regained his composure and said, "In that case, let us go."
Just as everyone was about to leave, Tailong rushed towards Titan, tears streaming down his face: "Grandpa, are you okay?"
Titan's breath was faint, and he could barely muster the strength to speak. With his last ounce of energy, he said, "Go find the Ye family... only she can save me..."
After saying this, he no longer had the strength to speak and collapsed to the ground, allowing the life within him to slowly fade away.
His cloudy eyes stared straight at the gray sky, and a faint whimper escaped his throat.
He truly regretted it!
He was afraid that he would die like this, never having the chance to see his master again.
He was filled with resentment!
He was furious!
Why didn't Yang Wudi acknowledge his master?
Clearly, his master was the strongest man in this world, the only man who stood tall and unyielding!
...
The group arrived at a VIP room in a nearby Seven Treasure Hotel.
As soon as they sat down, Yang Wudi's gaze fell upon Gu Feng: "Young friend Gu Feng, I believe Xiang Xiang has already mentioned me to you, hasn't she?"
Gu Feng's lips curled into a slight smile as he replied, "Yes, but I wonder what business Elder Yang has with me?"
Yang Wudi didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point: "Then I won't waste any more words and will speak directly."
"Do you, young friend, possess an Immortal Herb known as the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade?"
Upon hearing the words "Immortal Herb," Ning Fengzhi's brows immediately furrowed.
Chen Xin and Gu Rong reacted similarly. As beneficiaries who had consumed Immortal Herbs themselves, no one understood their importance better than they did.
Seemingly noticing the change in their expressions, Yang Wudi, fearing a misunderstanding, quickly explained: "Sovereign Ning, please don't misunderstand. I, Yang Wudi, would never stoop to such underhanded tactics. Moreover, the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade I speak of does not enhance talent or strength. It is a functional Immortal Herb."
After saying this, to demonstrate his sincerity, Yang Wudi even made a Martial Soul Oath: "I, Yang Wudi, swear by my Martial Soul that, regardless of whether this transaction succeeds, I will not reveal to anyone that Young Friend Gu Feng possesses an Immortal Herb!"
Seeing his sincerity, Ning Fengzhi's expression softened slightly, and he turned to Gu Feng: "Xiao Feng, is this true?"
Gu Feng nodded: "Indeed, the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade is of little use to us, but for the Breaking Clan, who rely on alchemy for their livelihood, it is of great value."
Hearing Gu Feng's explanation, Yang Wudi suddenly stood up, unable to contain his excitement.
It seemed that Gu Feng truly possessed the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade!
Gu Feng looked at Yang Wudi: "Elder Yang, what do you plan to offer in exchange for the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade?"
Yang Wudi took a deep breath and said solemnly, "As long as you, young friend, are willing to give me the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade, I am willing to lead the entire Breaking Clan to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
This was practically the only bargaining chip he had to offer in exchange for the Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade.
It was just unfortunate for the members of the Breaking Clan, who were being sold out by their own clan leader and would still have to count the money for him.
Members of the Breaking Clan: "..."
Ning Fengzhi's breathing immediately became rapid. The scenes from the recent battle were still fresh in his mind.
To think that just one Immortal Herb, which was of little use to them, could bring such a powerful clan into their fold—this deal was too good to be true!
Little did he know, Yang Wudi was thinking the same thing.
Just a few clansmen in exchange for a Secluded Fragrance Kirin Immortal Grade Immortal Herb, which is considered the pinnacle of protection for refining medicine and poison—this deal is simply too good to pass up, isn't it?
However, the final decision still lies with Gu Feng.
After all, the Immortal Herb belongs to Gu Feng.
Although Ning Fengzhi was eager to agree immediately, he still had to respect Gu Feng's opinion.
