Chapter 80 Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Treasury

"Okay, let's discuss it then~"

Lang Lei originally did not intend to take half of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's assets at once.

After all, most of the assets of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are properties, which are real estate and cannot be cashed out immediately. If they want to cash out quickly, they will probably have to suffer losses due to price reductions.

And working capital...

If they all leave at once, it will likely cause major problems for the normal operation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, undoubtedly pushing them to the brink of despair.

He just said he would let Ning Fengzhi off the hook, and as long as there are no fundamental issues, he will definitely keep his word.

Even so, Lang Lei was certain that the other party wouldn't dare to go too low, after all, the earthen cage behind them was still hot...

"How about 70 million gold soul coins?" Ning Fengzhi asked tentatively.

"One hundred million."

A hint of pain flashed across Ning Fengzhi's face, but he didn't hesitate for long. He gritted his teeth and said, "Deal. But give me some time. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School headquarters doesn't have that many gold soul coins right now."

It seems Lang Lei underestimated the audacity of these merchants.

"Alright, also, I want to go into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's treasury once," Lang Lei requested. "You can rest assured, I'll only take three items, no more, no less."

Lang Lei had lived and studied at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for three years and worked odd jobs for one year, so he naturally knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had a legendary treasure trove.

However, it seems that only the sect leader and the successor can enter; even Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo cannot enter alone.

Of course, forcibly breaking down the door is another matter.

Lang Lei was naturally interested in that treasure vault, which is why he made the request. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, with its long history and being the wealthiest of the three upper sects, might have some unexpected treasures inside…

As for why the Spirit Hall almost destroyed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the original work, but didn't mention the treasure vault, Lang Lei guessed that it was probably not found and they thought it was just a rumor.

"As long as Your Majesty is happy." Ning Fengzhi nodded, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"So it really does exist?"

"..."

"Uncle Jian, could you help me raise the money first? I'll take Lang Lei Mian to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's treasury." Ning Fengzhi said to the Sword Douluo beside him.

"Feng Zhi..." Sword Douluo glanced at Lang Lei, somewhat hesitant.

"Relax~ I said I won't do anything, and I definitely won't." Lang Lei shrugged. "Of course, there are exceptions."

"However, even if Sword Douluo were here, he couldn't stop this junior, could he?"

"This... alright." For the first time since entering the Title Douluo realm, Sword Douluo felt so powerless and left dejectedly.

"Ah... wasn't that a bit too much of a blow?" Lang Lei muttered, watching Sword Douluo's retreating figure.

"Your Majesty Lang Lei, let's go." Ning Fengzhi took the cane from beside the sect leader's seat and said to Lang Lei.

"OK."

The atmosphere was somewhat silent along the way.

"Your Majesty Lang Lei, I may be offended, but I am truly curious about how you..." Ning Fengzhi finally broke the silence.

"You want to ask me how I transformed from a piece of trash into a genius with the combat power of a Title Douluo that you all fear in just one year, right?" Lang Lei was anything but modest.

"Yes, of course, if it involves any secrets, Your Majesty Lang Lei can refuse," Ning Fengzhi said.

"It's nothing much, just as you guessed, I just encountered some fortuitous opportunities," Lang Lei said nonchalantly.

"Is it related to the light curtain that appeared in the sky a few days ago?" Ning Fengzhi asked tentatively.

Such an outrageous growth rate was something Ning Fengzhi couldn't imagine. Apart from the mysterious guy behind the light screen, who else on the Douluo Continent could make Lang Lei do this?

"More or less," Lang Lei replied ambiguously, which wasn't exactly a lie.

Besides, it wouldn't hurt to tell Ning Fengzhi that the light curtain was related to him. In any case, no one on the Douluo Continent could threaten him anymore.

If Ning Fengzhi can take this seriously and also influence the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, perhaps the next projection of the light screen will bring him even greater benefits.

"Is that so... Thank you for your explanation, Your Majesty Lang Lei." Ning Fengzhi bowed slightly.

"It's alright."

"The Collapse... it's actually real? So there really are other worlds beyond Douluo Continent..." Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but exclaim. "Heh, if it weren't for that light barrier, the beings on Douluo Continent would truly be like frogs at the bottom of a well..."

If it were just the light screen talking, Ning Fengzhi would definitely not be able to fully realize the terror of the Collapse.

However, when Ning Fengzhi saw Lang Lei grow from a level one cannon fodder to at least a top-tier combatant on the continent—a titled Douluo—in less than a year, he felt a sense of reality.

"There's no need to hide these things. Sect Leader Ning, just say what you want to say," Lang Lei said nonchalantly.

Ning Fengzhi didn't reply; he most likely wouldn't say anything.

Such a powerful thing naturally deserves his immediate attention; this is the power of information asymmetry. If he were to inform other forces, wouldn't more people take it seriously?

Lang Lei could probably guess Ning Fengzhi's thoughts, but he didn't react.

He's definitely going to visit all the major powers, so it doesn't matter whether Ning Fengzhi tells him or not.

"To thank Your Majesty Lang Lei for telling me this, please take a couple more items with you when we arrive at the treasure vault," Ning Fengzhi said proactively in a good mood. Of course, he also had the intention of reconciling past grievances and turning enemies into friends.

Lang Lei could obviously tell, but he didn't say anything and just agreed.

If a treasure is offered to you, don't refuse it.

Seeing that Lang Lei did not refuse, Ning Fengzhi was overjoyed. At least he would no longer have to worry about Lang Lei causing trouble at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School from time to time.

Soon, the two arrived at a small house.

"Is this it?" Lang Lei was a little puzzled. Could such a small house contain some kind of spatial array or soul tool?

How long has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School existed?

"That's right. Through this house, we can go underground and reach the real treasure trove," Ning Fengzhi explained.

"..."

He thought the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was so powerful, but it turns out it was just a simple hole-digging operation!

"Okay, let's go in." Lang Lei nodded.

The small house was filled with all sorts of odds and ends. If one didn't know the secret behind it, one would definitely mistake it for an ordinary storage room.

In the original story, the Spirit Hall probably just turned this small house into ruins and then didn't pay any attention to this place afterward.

Ning Fengzhi released his martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, into the small room, and a beam of colorful light shot towards a mirror in the corner of the storeroom.

Then, a hidden door appeared on the ground. Ning Fengzhi tapped his cane lightly, and a staircase leading downwards appeared.

Hidden so deep, what kind of treasure could be inside?
