Douluo Continent: I've joined forces with Tang San and taken Xiao Wu as my concubine!

Chapter 102, Turning the Blazing Sun Douluo Against Him

The group then exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Meng Dong, Meng Bei's cousin, boasted that he was already level 39 and hoped to break through to level 40 before he turned 20.

This talent is quite remarkable even by the standards of the entire Meng clan.

Meng Bei did not tell Meng Dong about his current soul power.

In the eyes of the Meng clan, Meng Bei has only been away from the family for half a year, and at most he has just broken through to the Soul Venerable realm. No one could have imagined that in just half a year, Meng Bei is now about to break through to the Soul Emperor realm.

After exchanging pleasantries, Meng Bei and Ning Rongrong prepared to leave.

At this moment, Meng Jian called Meng Bei down alone. After Ning Rongrong left, Meng Jian cautiously asked Meng Bei what he needed to pay attention to when he met Ning Fengzhi later.

Meng Jian knew that if he asked these questions in front of Ning Rongrong, it would definitely damage Meng Bei's reputation.

But if we don't ask, and Ning Fengzhi comes to visit in the afternoon, and he doesn't handle things properly, it could damage the relationship between the two families.

Although Meng Jian appears carefree on the surface, he is actually a very meticulous person, which is why the family sent him over.

Upon hearing this, Meng Bei briefly explained Ning Fengzhi's personality traits to Meng Jian.

Actually, there's not much need for this. Ning Fengzhi doesn't have any taboos, and with his emotional intelligence, even if Meng Jian is terrible at talking, he won't let the conversation fall flat. So Meng Jian's worries are completely unnecessary.

However, to put Meng Jian at ease, Meng Bei still gave him a brief explanation.

Meanwhile, Ning Fengzhi was indeed busy with something at the time.

He and Tang Hao and others were trying to find a way to infiltrate the Haotian Sect.

According to inquiries, since the Haotian Sect announced its closure, its numerous industries have shrunk significantly. As a result, the Haotian Sect's resources in all aspects are not as good as before after the closure.

Within the Haotian Sect today, it can be roughly divided into two factions.

One group of people were resilient, content with poverty and asceticism, and happy to live in seclusion within the Haotian Sect. At the same time, this group did not harbor as much resentment towards Tang Hao for what he had done in the past.

Another group of people are hot-tempered and unwilling to settle for mediocrity. They have always been resentful about the Haotian Sect's seclusion and are dissatisfied with their current impoverished life. They hope every day that the Haotian Sect will make a comeback and rebuild the glory of the once number one sect on the continent.

At the same time, most of this group had relatives who were injured or killed in the attack by the Spirit Hall because of what happened to Tang Hao back then. They spread this hatred to Tang Hao after he left the sect, believing that Tang Hao's cowardice indirectly caused the tragedy back then.

Therefore, they hated Tang Hao to the core and often cursed him verbally.

The members of the Haotian Sect are mostly hot-tempered. Among these two factions, the first type of people make up a small percentage, while the second type makes up the majority.

According to the analysis of the strategists within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the school is most likely to win over the second faction.

Although the first faction harbored no resentment towards Tang Hao, they also had no goodwill towards him. The key was that they were content with the status quo and had no dissatisfaction with the Haotian Sect under Tang Xiao's leadership.

In this situation, it becomes extremely difficult to win them over.

The second type of person is different.

Although they hated Tang Hao to the core and often cursed him, it also meant that they were not content with the status quo.

In other words, their dissatisfaction wasn't actually with Tang Hao, but rather with their current situation.

Tang Xiao's ability to maintain the status quo but lack of ambition is insufficient to lead the Haotian Sect out of this predicament. As long as Tang Xiao continues to serve as the sect leader, this mediocre situation will be difficult to change.

On the contrary, Tang Hao possesses the strength to lead the Clear Sky Sect to a comeback.

According to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's think tank, as long as Tang Hao first finds a way to temporarily quell the resentment in the hearts of most members of the Clear Sky School, and then proposes some grand policies to atone for his sins, such as leading the Clear Sky School to revive and defeating the Spirit Hall, he can achieve his goal.

Then those who originally hated Tang Hao to the bone are very likely to turn against him and support him to become the sect leader.

Among them, the most likely to be won over is the Seventh Elder, the Blazing Sun Douluo!

You can tell from his title that this Fiery Sun Douluo has a personality as explosive as the sun.

In that incident, the eldest son of the Blazing Sun Douluo was killed in the battle against the Spirit Hall. This almost became a knot in the Blazing Sun Douluo's heart. According to the information he had gathered, the Blazing Sun Douluo would curse Tang Hao as a beast, the Spirit Hall as a beast, and Ghost Leopard Douluo, who killed his son, as a beast almost every day!

Although Lieyang Douluo curses Tang Hao every day, precisely because of this, as long as Tang Xiao remains the sect leader, the Haotian Sect will remain closed for one day, and Lieyang Douluo's desire to avenge the loss of his son will be delayed by one day.

If Tang Hao were willing to take the initiative to admit his mistakes to Lieyang Douluo and then promise to avenge Lieyang Douluo's son, then it is very likely that Lieyang Douluo would become Tang Hao's number one supporter!

Of course, specific actions still need careful planning, and contact with Lieyang Douluo also needs to be carried out gradually; it cannot be accomplished overnight.

In the afternoon, Ning Fengzhi took some time to meet with Meng Jian and his group.

The two sides discussed various aspects of the upcoming wedding arrangements, including the guests to be invited.

Throughout the entire process, Ning Fengzhi displayed a gentle and refined demeanor, giving Meng Jian and the others ample face, which greatly increased the Meng family's goodwill towards Ning Fengzhi.

Meanwhile, Meng Bei also received an invitation from Xue Qinghe.

Ever since Meng Bei spoke to Emperor Xue Ye about having Xue Qinghe recognize Ning Rongrong as his sister, Emperor Xue Ye has taken the matter very seriously.

On the one hand, he continued to send people to gather intelligence about Meng Bei, and on the other hand, he went to test Xue Qinghe's attitude.

Emperor Xueye suspected that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe might have secretly made a deal with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School deposed Prince Xue Xing last time, the attitudes of Emperor Xue Ye and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have become subtle.

Although he did not openly turn against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Emperor Xueye was actually very angry behind the scenes.

Even if Prince Xuexing is not the best, he is still his own younger brother.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's actions were undoubtedly a slap in the face to him.

This incident made Emperor Xueye wary of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He realized that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's influence in the Heaven Dou Empire was too great.

This became even more apparent after Dugu Bo joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Furthermore, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was a disciple of Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Now, Ning Fengzhi's son-in-law had Xue Qinghe recognize Ning Fengzhi's daughter as his younger sister.

This action inevitably made Emperor Xueye think twice.

However, when he went to test Xue Qinghe's attitude towards the matter, Xue Qinghe acted as if he knew nothing about it, and Emperor Xue Ye's probing yielded nothing.

How could this be? Nobody would believe Xue Qinghe was unaware of this!

Emperor Xue Ye immediately assumed that Xue Qinghe was intentionally concealing something, so he secretly ordered that Xue Qinghe not be allowed to leave the Crown Prince's palace and quietly placed Xue Qinghe under house arrest.

And so Xue Qinghe was placed under house arrest without knowing anything about it.

With a puzzled look on his face, Xue Qinghe had no choice but to send someone to invite Meng Bei, so that he could ask Meng Bei what exactly was going on.
