Chapter 368 Soul Hunting Operation!

Tang San left, directly wading through the poison array and departing from Sunset Forest, without having Gu Rong see him off.

Firstly, Dugu Bo's poison array was no match for Tang San, and the soul beasts in Sunset Forest were not enough to frighten Tang San; secondly, Tang San did not want to trouble Gu Rong, and starting from Sunset Forest would be closer to the hidden mountain where the Clear Sky Sect was located!

Without Tang Hao's or the Haotian Sect's consent, Tang San had no intention of revealing the Haotian Sect's location to Gu Rong!

Han Feng and the others understood this, so they did not try to stop Tang San.

"Rongrong, let's go!" After Han Feng finished eating, Gu Rong was also preparing to leave, so she called out to Ning Rongrong.

Unexpectedly, Ning Rongrong brazenly hugged Han Feng's arm and said in a coquettish tone, "No! Grandpa Gu, you go back first. As the saying goes, a day apart feels like three autumns. Han Feng and I have been apart for more than ten years. Can't you just let me have some time alone with Han Feng?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Rong's old face immediately stiffened!

Something about that sounds really off!

Although Gu Rong is single, he is not a virgin. How could he not understand that?

"No way!" Gu Rong shouted righteously, glaring at Han Feng resentfully, "There are too many affairs in the sect. Rongrong, you are the young sect leader; you need to know what's important!"

"Ouch!" Ning Rongrong cried out in protest, her beautiful eyes glaring resentfully at Gu Rong, pouting as she said, "Sect affairs, sect affairs! Grandpa Gu only cares about sect affairs! You always indulged Rongrong before!"

Gu Rong wailed inwardly—"I did obey you before, but not on this matter!"

If we really go along with your idea, with Han Feng's body being as strong as an ox, you won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow!

"No means no!" Gu Rong said sternly, showing no intention of backing down.

Ning Rongrong was taken aback. In the past, Gu Rong would have given in at this time!

Ning Rongrong was clearly unaware of what Gu Rong was thinking.

Gu Rong noticed the unusual expression on Ning Rongrong's face. Fearing that the princess might burst into tears, his tense expression softened, and he reasoned with her, "Rongrong, Grandpa is only doing this for your own good! Grandpa has been through this before; this matter cannot be rushed. We can't ruin a lifetime of memories for a moment's pleasure! Even if we take a step back, in three months, isn't that your wedding date?! Just three months, it's not too late!"

That's right, Han Feng and Ning Rongrong are already engaged, and their wedding will be in three months, just in time for their reunion after five years.

The five-year agreement was originally set to expire in two months, but the extra month was added in case someone got delayed on the way.

Han Feng also told Qian Renxue about this, and Qian Renxue had no objection. There is a proper order to things. When it comes to matters of the heart, Ning Rongrong was indeed faster than Qian Renxue. Moreover, even if Han Feng marries Ning Rongrong, as long as Han Feng has a place for her in his heart, Qian Renxue will be content—that's what Qian Renxue told Han Feng.

In fact, Qian Renxue herself understood that, given her sensitive identity, she could not openly stand with Han Feng until Han Feng's plan was completely completed. Her identity would only bring Han Feng endless trouble. It was enough for the three of them to know this!

Of course, that's three months from now; let's get back to the present.

As soon as Gu Rong finished speaking, Ning Rongrong knew exactly what he was thinking. Her pretty face instantly turned bright red, both ashamed and annoyed. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she even secretly glanced at Han Feng, a hint of anticipation rising in her heart!

"Ahem!" Han Feng had no choice but to speak up at this point. He coughed twice, scratched his head, and said to Gu Rong, "Senior Gu, you've misunderstood. Rongrong and I just have some private things to say. We haven't seen each other for over a month, and we've been missing each other. If you don't believe me, you can wait here!"

Anyway, as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's you who's embarrassed!

"Grandpa Bone, you old scoundrel!" Ning Rongrong screamed in a sweet voice, her soft body unconsciously pressing even closer to Han Feng.

Hearing Han Feng and Ning Rongrong's words, even Gu Rong blushed slightly, chuckled awkwardly, and said stiffly, "Haha! So you were just whispering! I thought you were just whispering! Hey! You should have said so earlier! It's just whispering! Go ahead and say it, I'm leaving now!"

Han Feng listened to Gu Rong's nonsensical ramblings without saying a word, but just looked at him with a smile, making Gu Rong even more embarrassed.

Under Han Feng's intense gaze, Gu Rong could no longer remain still. He quickly opened a spatial portal, and before leaving, he deliberately turned back to glare at Han Feng as a warning, saying, "I'll come to pick up Rongrong this afternoon!"

Staying overnight is out of the question. After three months, Gu Rong will have nothing to say, but during these three months, Gu Rong cannot allow Han Feng and Ning Rongrong to act recklessly!

If Ning Rongrong turns out to be heavily pregnant at the wedding, that would be a huge joke!

After Gu Rong left, Ning Rongrong eagerly threw herself into Han Feng's arms, pressing her face against his chest, and softly asked, "Was it Qianqian's letter?"

"Hmm..." Han Feng pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Ning Rongrong looked up and saw Han Feng's composed face. Understanding her thoughts, she reached out her delicate hand and gently massaged Han Feng's brow, smoothing out his furrowed brows. Then she asked, "Is the Spirit Hall about to make a move?"

Han Feng unconsciously stroked Ning Rongrong's hair while sighing and saying, "Bibi Dong is about to launch Operation Soul Hunting!"

Upon hearing the words "Operation Soul Hunt," Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled, her pupils contracted slightly, and her voice also lowered, as she murmured with considerable solemnity, "Is it finally about to begin?!"

Because of Qian Renxue's existence, Han Feng and Ning Rongrong knew about the internal affairs of the Spirit Hall. However, the difference was that Han Feng knew everything, while Ning Rongrong only knew about the Soul Hunting Operation. Knowing too much, Ning Rongrong was worried that Ning Fengzhi would find out.

"What does the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School need to do?" Ning Rongrong asked calmly after regaining her composure.

Han Feng shook his head and said, "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't need to do anything right now, so as not to alert the enemy. Bibi Dong's first wave of soul hunting operations wasn't targeting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but the Blue Lightning Tyrant School!"

"Blue Lightning Overlord Sect?" Ning Rongrong tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"Hmm!" Han Feng explained, "Bibi Dong is wary of me, or rather, she's wary of the Snow Empress behind me. So she decided to start with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan. She mobilized one level 97 Title Douluo and three level 96 Title Douluos from the Elder Hall. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is probably in grave danger!"

As for why they didn't start with the Heaven Dou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, it's easier to understand—sects and empires are different. Only the core high-level forces of a sect pose a threat to the Spirit Hall. As long as they are killed, the sect will naturally collapse. But empires possess vast territories. Even if Bibi Dong sends people to slaughter the Heaven Dou and Star Luo royal families now, the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire will only fall into internal strife and split into multiple small kingdoms, which will be even more troublesome!

Bibi Dong wants the empire's territory!

"Then wouldn't the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect be..." Ning Rongrong's pupils shrank, and she murmured heavily.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant School have a mutually supportive relationship in the face of the Spirit Hall. If the Blue Lightning Tyrant School is destroyed, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will also be unable to support itself alone.

Ning Rongrong surely understands the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold"!

Han Feng clicked his tongue lightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The Spirit Hall will launch an attack on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan in a month. At that time, we can send Senior Gu to provide some support. Senior Gu has the ability to travel through space, so escaping shouldn't be difficult for him. For the sake of Grandmaster and Teacher Erlong, we might even be able to rescue a few members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan!"

"Senior Chen needs to remain at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to prevent the Spirit Hall from using the fact that Senior Gu and Senior Chen have both left the school as a pretext to attack it instead!"

"Once the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan matter is settled, the Spirit Hall should then target the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

"This time interval will not exceed three days. Before then, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School must quickly gather its external forces and minimize its losses!"

After Han Feng finished speaking, Ning Rongrong asked, somewhat puzzled, "Can't we let the Snow Empress intervene? With her abilities, she can definitely stop the Spirit Hall!"

Ning Rongrong was right, but Han Feng shook his head, glanced at Ning Rongrong, and said apologetically, "Xue Di... has other things to do."

Seeing Han Feng's hesitant expression, Ning Rongrong knew perfectly well that Han Feng was hiding something from her.

Han Feng opened his mouth again, but Ning Rongrong covered his lips with her hand. Ning Rongrong said with a soft smile, "You don't need to explain to me. If you don't want to say, you must have your reasons. Didn't we agree? I'm very obedient!"

Upon hearing this, Han Feng's gaze softened, and he ultimately kept quiet.

In fact, while Bibi Dong was targeting the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, she was also extending her clutches to Xiao Wu in the Star Dou Great Forest. What Xue Di was going to do was to rescue Xiao Wu from Gui Mei and Yue Guan. Although it wouldn't be impossible for Gu Rong to rescue Xiao Wu and for Xue Di to stop the tragedy of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, Han Feng also had his own selfish reasons. Compared to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, Han Feng naturally had to ensure Xiao Wu's safety first!

If Han Feng were to tell Ning Rongrong the truth, given the relationship between Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, she definitely wouldn't stand idly by, and might even prevent Gu Rong from going to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect!

However, in order to summon the Snow Empress, Han Feng also had to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. After all, the Snow Empress was there to protect Han Feng, not to do his bidding, and had no obligation to help Han Feng protect Xiao Wu!

If Ning Rongrong knew that Han Feng was also going to the Star Dou Great Forest, she would definitely go with him. Han Feng didn't want to take her to such a dangerous place!

"But how am I supposed to tell Dad? I can't exactly tell him that we're in contact with the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, can I?" Ning Rongrong pouted again, looking quite troubled.

"Just say it's a tip from Big Boss Bai! Anyway, Big Boss Bai isn't here, so let him take the blame!" Han Feng blurted out without hesitation.
