The bishops of the Martial Soul Sub-Halls were puzzled, why did the plan suddenly change?
"Your Holiness the Pope, weren't we supposed to first target the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect?"
"Your Holiness, I believe we should first strike the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect. Among the Upper Three Sects, in terms of overall strength, the Vast Heaven Sect is the strongest, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan is second, and the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect is third. As long as Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo can hold off Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, dealing with the other support would be easy."
"Yes, Your Holiness, let's first attack the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect."
...
"Shut up!"
Bibi Dong was furious, her chest heaving, and she said in a deep voice, "Listen to me, Blue Lightning first, then Vast Heaven, and finally the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect."
The upper echelons were stunned, and a bishop gathered the courage to ask, "Your Holiness, is it because of Ye Yu? Aren't you being too afraid of him?"
"Hmm?"
Bibi Dong's face turned cold, and an overwhelming aura instantly struck the Soul Douluo level high-ranking officer, making him weak and trembling on the ground.
"What do you know!" Bibi Dong lashed out angrily.
The other high-ranking officials were immediately scared into silence, but they were puzzled by the fear of Ye Yu—was it because of his father?
"Your Holiness, is it because of that Apocalypse Black Dragon? He may be formidable, but wasn't he defeated and severely injured by Your Holiness and the other six Titled Douluo, leading to his escape?"
The high-ranking official trembling on the ground asked in a quaking voice.
They knew Ye Yu's father was powerful, as it was an unknown force that had knocked out all in the Martial Soul Hall at that time, except for Titled Douluo and Ye Yu.
Afterward, facing Bibi Dong and seven Titled Douluo, he was still able to escape. They knew Ye Yu's father's strength was comparable to Tang Hao's. However, should it be enough to cause Bibi Dong and the Titled Douluo to fear him?
Even though they had repeatedly found Ye Yu's location, they had not personally gone to capture him, opting instead to issue a wanted notice and offer enticing rewards to attract other forces to deal with Ye Yu, while staying out of it themselves.
Bibi Dong was very upset, obviously exaggerating. It would be even more disgraceful to admit they were scared away by the Apocalypse Black Dragon, saying the seven Titled Douluo were frightened.
Bibi Dong said in a deep voice, "Ye Yu has a good relationship with the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect. I've heard he was assisted by them previously when obtaining his Soul Ring. If we attack the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect, he will certainly intervene. Of course, I wouldn't be afraid of him; his father is indeed formidable, even stronger than Tang Hao."
Upon hearing this, the others gasped; stronger than Tang Hao?
They initially thought he was comparable to Tang Hao but didn't expect him to be even more formidable, finally understanding why Bibi Dong didn't act against Ye Yu.
Bibi Dong continued, "On one hand, we need to hunt that one hundred thousand years Soul Beast, and on the other hand, we need to carry out the Soul Hunting Operation, so we need to conserve strength and avoid provoking the Apocalypse Black Dragon for now. That's why we've been capturing him through a wanted notice, understand? Do I need to explain more?"
"Understood, understood."
The high-ranking official on the ground nodded repeatedly.
Bibi Dong retracted her aura; previously she would have surely punished them severely, but now she needed manpower, so she restrained herself.
"The Soul Hunting Operation will take place in a month, disperse."
...
At the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect.
Ye Yu, returning from the Hell Demon Dragon Race's territory, first came here.
Over six months of cultivation in the Hell Demon Dragon Race's territory, his pace was rapid, and his Soul Power had already reached level sixty-eight. This year, he had just turned seventeen.
Seventeen years old at level sixty-eight, unprecedented. The combat power he possessed at seventeen made him the foremost beneath the Titled Douluo, also unprecedented.
Ning Fengzhi prepared a banquet to welcome him, very pleased.
Ning Fengzhi, like a father-in-law, admired Ye Yu greatly, sighed softly, and said, "Over these five years, I've heard some stories about you. It seems your strength is even more terrifying; to have destroyed Hundred Emperors City alone, it's unbelievable."
"Without Sect Leader Ning and Elder Jian's past assistance, I would have struggled to reach this point."
Ye Yu remembered the kindness from when he obtained the Fifth Soul Ring, facing a crisis at that time. If not for Ning Fengzhi's determined support, he would have been in danger.
Ye Yu said, "Where's Rongrong? I haven't seen her."
"Rongrong is not in the sect; she just broke through to level fifty, and Uncle Jian took her to Xingdou Forest to hunt a Soul Beast to obtain her Fifth Soul Ring."
Ye Yu nodded, "Hmm, there are still three days until our gathering, meeting then is not too late."
The lavish dishes were quickly served, Ning Fengzhi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Ye Yu, who bowed slightly to receive it.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and asked, "Xiao Yu, do you have a girlfriend now?"
Ye Yu thought for a moment and replied, "Well, I suppose not."
Although both Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing liked him, their relationship was not yet defined.
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi was very happy, lightly coughing and speaking candidly, "I wonder what you think of my Rongrong?"
"This…" Ye Yu knew Ning Fengzhi would say this.
"Haha." Ning Fengzhi laughed and said, "I can see Rongrong likes you very much. Possibly influenced by you, she's worked hard over these five years, dedicated herself to cultivation, striving to become more powerful. Although assists cannot mutually support each other, this point does not apply to you; with your demon-like talent and Rongrong's support, the resulting strength would be unimaginably formidable."
Ning Fengzhi's words were clear: Ye Yu and Rongrong were a match made in heaven.
Ye Yu smiled and nodded, "Rongrong is indeed wonderful, I also like her very much."
Ning Fengzhi said, "I can see other girls also like you, but that's normal, given how exceptional you are."
With the meal served, Ye Yu rubbed his belly and said, "I'm hungry, let's eat."
Ye Yu ate voraciously, not having the space to speak, while Ning Fengzhi did not continue to ask questions.
After eating and drinking enough, Ye Yu left. His main reason for coming to the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect was to check if there were any suspicious people around.
As he expected, there indeed were; even though they were distant and careful, Ye Yu still detected them.
Ye Yu felt the Soul Hunting Operation would start soon, and coming to the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect was to show the Martial Soul Hall, to intimidate them. Whether it would be effective, only time would tell.
In any case, if the Martial Soul Hall attacked the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect, he would naturally help.
After leaving, Ye Yu headed to Tian Dou City's Moon Pavilion at his rapid pace, arriving quickly.
Ye Yu reached Moon Pavilion; today was lively, being the Moon Pavilion Academy's graduation ceremony, where each student was polite and graceful, as elegant as Ning Fengzhi.
"Brother Yu."
Tang San joyfully called out, and Ye Yu approached him, saying, "You've changed a lot; the murderous aura within you is fully restrained, making you look very refined."
Tang San replied, "Studying here has been beneficial, but Brother Yu certainly doesn't need it. Although these are important, to Brother Yu, they may seem flashy."
Ye Yu chuckled and said, "Go ahead with what you're doing."
"Alright, I'll come find you after the ceremony."
Tang San elegantly left, and Ye Yu went to the restroom.
Near the restroom, Ye Yu saw a familiar figure, Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe was about to quickly enter the ladies' restroom, very cautiously.
Ye Yu approached with a sigh, saying, "Brother Qinghe, your habit of secretly entering the ladies' restroom hasn't changed yet."
