Douluo: Did you move Danta here?

Chapter 367 Agree
Ning Fengzhi pointed to his filial son and said with a laugh:

"I did all this because you pushed our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to the opposite side, so why do you make it sound like I'm untrustworthy?"

"Yes, yes, you had no choice. I held a knife to your throat and you took the benefits but didn't do anything."

"."

Upon returning to Yuexuan, Tang Yuehua hurriedly sent someone to relay Ning Fengzhi's alliance terms back to Haotian Sect. She also included the fact that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School intended to surrender to the Spirit Hall. Of course, she thought this was unlikely and was just a tactic Ning Fengzhi used to negotiate terms.

When Tang Xiao received his sister's message, nearly five days had passed. After reading the letter, Tang Xiao frowned deeply and immediately summoned several elders to his residence to discuss the matter.

Before he even arrived, Tang Lie's gruff voice drifted into the room.

"Sect Master, is there any news regarding the alliance with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Several elders followed Tang Lie into the room and took their seats. In their eyes, this matter was a sure thing. Although they could only listen to the saying that the three upper sects were of one mind, they still believed that Ning Fengzhi would be sensible in the face of the Spirit Hall, a common enemy. However, the serious expression on Tang Xiao's face made their hearts sink to the bottom.

The Second Elder, having already formed some suspicions, spoke first and asked:

"What's wrong, Sect Master? Is it because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School won't agree to the alliance? Is Ning Fengzhi really that short-sighted?"

Tang Xiao shook his head and handed over the letter sent by Tang Yuehua.

"You can see for yourselves. He's not short-sighted; he has ulterior motives."

"Ok?"

Now all the elders looked at the letter in the Second Elder's hand with suspicion. Their Haotian Sect was now dirt poor, so what could Ning Fengzhi, the richest man on the continent, possibly have to scheme against?

After the group slowly read the contents of the letter, they finally realized what the other party was up to. Tang Lie, who had the most fiery temper, immediately slammed his fist on the table.

"This is outrageous! Does Ning Fengzhi think the Spirit Hall will only target our Clear Sky Sect? How dare he take advantage of our misfortune like this? Why don't we just wipe out the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School first?"

The other elders remained silent, but their expressions were equally grim, conveying the unwavering resolve that the Haotian Secret Technique could not be lost.

"Alas, Ning Fengzhi is right. The Spirit Hall might indeed make a move against us first. After all, the Clear Sky Hammer is located far on the border, and it would take a long time for news of them killing us to spread. On the other hand, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is right next to Heaven Dou City. If they want to make a move against them, they would have to see if the Heaven Dou royal family would agree. A war with a country can take a very long time."

The Second Elder sighed, thinking he had guessed Ning Fengzhi's thoughts, and his statement was quickly accepted by Tang Xiao.

“That’s right. If the Spirit Hall is too slow in attacking the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heaven Dou Empire first, we might take the opportunity to come out of seclusion and form an alliance with those two parties. Therefore, Bibi Dong will only attack us first.”

"This"

After the two explained, the elders instantly understood where Ning Fengzhi's confidence came from, but knowing it didn't make them happy.

"Hmph, a mere Soul Saint, relying on the support of the Sword and Bone Elders and the Heavenly Dou Royal Family, actually dares to bully my Haotian Sect. I really want to teach him a lesson. We have already given him enough face by taking the initiative to propose an alliance."

Tang Lie's words caused a moment of silence in the room. How could they be happy to be ridden on by a Soul Saint? But as aggrieved as they were, they still had to try their best to facilitate this alliance. After all, the pressure from the Spirit Hall was too great. It was simply unrealistic for the Clear Sky Sect to resist them on its own. Even though the Clear Sky Sect's mountain gate had the geographical advantage of being easy to defend and difficult to attack, the gap in high-end combat power could not be made up for by terrain.

After a while, the more composed Second Elder asked for Tang Xiao's opinion.

"Sect Master, what is your opinion?"

After a moment's hesitation, Tang Xiao shared his opinion: "I'll give it to you, but on conditions."

"Oh?"

"The method of exploding rings can be taught to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but firstly, they must not spread it outside and it is only allowed to circulate among the higher-ups. This point must be made clear when the alliance is formed, otherwise the Haotian School has a reason to arrest those non-core members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who know the method of exploding rings."

"Secondly, if the Spirit Hall really attacks, the Heaven Dou Empire cannot stand idly by."

Tang Xiao laid out his thoughts in full, and the elders mostly fell silent in thought, while Tang Lie was still somewhat reluctant.

"Sect Master, this is a secret technique passed down from our ancestors and has never been revealed to outsiders."

"Giving away a method to destroy rings is fine, but what's the use of guarding a secret technique if the Haotian Sect no longer exists? Besides, without a strong physique, using this technique is tantamount to suicide."

Tang Xiao's words immediately resonated with the Second Elder.

"The sect leader is right. Compared to the life and death of the Haotian Sect, a mere secret technique is nothing to worry about. Moreover, I don't think those weak soul masters of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can use the Ring Explosion Technique well. At most, they can only let Jian and Gu use it."

Since the two most influential people in the sect had said so, the elders, even if they were unwilling, dared not voice their opposition.

"But second brother, would the Tiandou Empire be willing to send troops to help us?"

"Why not? Is the Spirit Hall's ambition merely to unite all the sects under heaven? Don't be naive. When the time is right, Bibi Dong will surely lead her troops to conquer the world and become the ruler of this continent. What will the Heaven Dou Empire use to resist her then?"

"I don't believe Xue Qinghe can't see this point. The right way is for everyone to stick together and keep warm."

The shrewd and experienced Second Elder quickly came up with the idea of ​​binding the Heavenly Dou Empire onto the warship, which was exactly what Tang Xiao wanted.

After the high-level leaders reached a consensus, Tang Xiao sent his stepson, Tang Long, to the Heaven Dou Empire with the secret technique of exploding rings to ensure that no accidents would occur.

While Tang San was training his physique and practicing the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique day after day, he also keenly noticed the worry on his uncle's face.

"Uncle, has Aunt sent a message?"

Tang Xiao, who was standing by the waterfall in the valley, paused for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"You can't hide anything from me, Little San. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also intends to form an alliance, they have put forward some conditions for us."

"What kind of conditions?"

"The Ring-Exploding Secret Technique! It's the Haotian Secret Technique that your father used when he was able to severely injure the Pope of the Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing this, Tang San was slightly startled, then frowned. He quickly understood the implications and the source of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's confidence, and felt a slight displeasure at their actions.

"They are too greedy. These secret techniques are all closely guarded secrets of the sect. They are suspected of taking advantage of the chaos."

"Alas, how could Uncle not know? But with a formidable enemy at hand, we have no time to concern ourselves with such matters. We can only hope that Ning Fengzhi, having obtained the secret technique, can persuade the Heavenly Dou Empire to join this alliance as well."
