Chapter 257 A Reassurance for Sect Leader Ning

That is, when Gu Han was taking care of the child's cultivation in the back mountain, waiting for all the teams dispatched by the Spirit Hall from various places to arrive.

Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi landed outside Wuhun City and then entered the city through the main gate.

At this time, Wuhun City was much more lively than usual. Although it couldn't compare to the Pope's wedding, it was no less lively than the capital cities of the two great empires during the Soul Master Competition.

These people were mostly wearing the Spirit Hall's standard uniforms, and the majority of them were white, basic-level uniforms.

Although purple and black robes can also be seen, they are far less common compared to white robes.

Ning Fengzhi stopped a man in white robes. Seeing the man looking at him with a puzzled expression, he smiled gently and asked in a refined manner, "Brother, why are there so many white-robed stewards in Wuhun City?"

Seeing that Ning Fengzhi and the Sword Douluo behind him had extraordinary temperaments and no hostility, Lu Rentao said, "I don't know about this matter either. I only know that the Holy Son gave the order, saying that there was an important meeting, so he summoned the members of the various Martial Soul Branch Halls to gather in Martial Soul City."

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin exchanged a glance. They hadn't expected that such a grand spectacle was orchestrated by Gu Han. What was he planning to do?

Thinking this, Ning Fengzhi looked at Lu Rentao and said, "Thank you for informing us, brother. We'll take our leave now."

"It's nothing, please make yourself at home," Lu Rentao said with a smile, waving his hand.

"I didn't expect that such a big fuss was actually orchestrated by that brat Xiao Han. Feng Zhi, let's just go directly to the Holy Son's Palace and find that kid," Chen Xin said.

"Well, let's go see His Holiness the Pope first."

Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment before speaking.

After all, this is Wuhun City. As the head of a sect, it would be unreasonable for him not to visit the Pope as the first thing he did upon arriving in Wuhun City.

"Very well, then let's go pay our respects to His Holiness the Pope first."

Chen Xin nodded, admitting that he had indeed been inconsiderate just now.

The two arrived at the Spirit Hall, presented the papal decree to the golden-armored guards outside the hall, and expressed their request to see the Pope.

"Sect Master Ning, Your Excellency Sword Douluo, please follow me."

The golden-armored captain of the guards respectfully led the two up the stairs to the Papal Palace.

The captain of the guard stopped and bowed to the two men when he brought them to the front of the papal palace.

"Sect Master Ning, His Holiness Sword Douluo and His Holiness the Pope are in the hall. Please wait here for a moment while I give you my report."

"it is good."

Ning Fengzhi nodded amiably.

The guard pushed open the main hall door and soon came out again, along with Qian Xunji himself.

"Sect Master Ning, I am deeply sorry for not welcoming you properly, Sword Douluo has come here."

"Your Holiness the Pope."

Ning Fengzhi bowed slightly, while Chen Xin, as a Super Douluo with a high status, merely nodded in acknowledgment.

Qian Xunji nodded in response, then said to Ning Fengzhi, "Sect Leader Ning, there's no need for such formalities. Please come with me into the hall for a chat."

"I will follow His Holiness the Pope's arrangements."

Ning Fengzhi nodded, and he and Chen Xin followed Qian Xunji into the Papal Palace.

Qian Xunji did not sit on the high and mighty papal throne. He stood at the bottom of the steps, his gaze fixed on Ning Fengzhi, and spoke first.

"Sect Leader Ning, what brings you here to see me?"

Qian Xunji didn't stand on ceremony with Ning Fengzhi and spoke very directly.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi realized that Qian Xunji didn't want to waste time on unnecessary things, so he directly explained the reason.

After hearing Ning Fengzhi's explanation, Qian Xunji smiled and said, "Xiao Han can decide this matter himself. If you want to know anything, you can go to the back mountain to find him."

"The back mountain?"

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin exchanged a puzzled look and asked, "Could it be that His Highness the Holy Son has gone into seclusion?"

“No, he just moved there temporarily.” Qianxun shook her head.

"I see."

Ning Fengzhi nodded and then said, "Your Holiness, if the Spirit Hall needs anything from my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, please feel free to ask. My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is naturally willing to lend a hand."

"Haha, Sect Leader Ning, you're exaggerating. Xiao Han's operation this time is mainly about rectifying the rules of the Spirit Hall, it's not a big deal. However, I appreciate Sect Leader Ning's good intentions."

Qian Xunji realized that Ning Fengzhi was expressing his loyalty, but this loyalty seemed more like a manifestation of insecurity, as if he was afraid that the Spirit Hall would abandon him.

Qian Xunji decided to reassure the other party: "Sect Leader Ning, the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are of one mind. If your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has any problems, please come to the Spirit Hall. We will naturally do our part to help your sect."

"Then thank you very much, Your Holiness the Pope."

Ning Fengzhi made up his mind, but on the surface he still maintained a refined and easy-going smile.

Qian Xunji looked at Chen Xin, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and smiled, "Sword Douluo's cultivation has improved again, congratulations."

Although Chen Xin's cultivation level had not broken through to level 98, it had clearly improved since their last meeting, which was perceptible. The originally sharp sword intent now gave people the feeling of a calm lake surface, without any ripples.

This clearly demonstrates further improvement in swordsmanship.

At the same time, Qian Xunji also felt a little envious of Ning Fengzhi.

They actually managed to recruit the successor of the Seven Kill Sword into the sect as a sect-protecting elder. You have to know that all the Sword Douluo in the past were dashing and powerful figures with strong attack power. Naturally, all forces wanted to recruit them, but no matter what means they used, they could not recruit them.

"Your Holiness the Pope is too kind. I am still far inferior to you."

Chen Xin was naturally referring to the difference in level and the value of the martial soul.

The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul is too abnormal. In terms of numerical values, almost no other Martial Soul can compare with it. It is a Martial Soul that all Soul Masters on the continent envy.

There's no need to consider combat skills at all; when fighting, just unleash a set of skills, and basically no one can catch them.

Skills become secondary; you can practice them if you want, or not if you don't. Once you reach level 97 or above, you'll be virtually invincible on the continent.

The three chatted for a while longer, then Qian Xunji said he had some things to do and asked the other two to go find Gu Han.

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin understood Qian Xunji's intention to dismiss them, so they took their leave and departed from the Papal Palace.

Following Qian Xunji's directions, the two headed to where Gu Han was.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard where Gu Han was, several people and a small beast sat around a table, eating the food prepared by Ah Yin.

Of all of them, Qian Renxue ate the most.

"Xue'er, this is fish. Eat it slowly and don't get a fish bone stuck in your throat."

Gu Han noticed that Qian Renxue loved eating fish, and seeing that she was young, he reminded her.

Qian Renxue swallowed the fish in her mouth and nodded obediently: "Yes, I know, Brother Gu Han."

A Yin sat on the other side of Qian Renxue, silently peeling shrimp meat for the little auspicious beast.

Just then, Gu Han suddenly raised an eyebrow, naturally sensing the presence of Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin.

Only A-Yin noticed that Gu Han stopped eating; the other two children were too busy eating to care, assuming that Gu Han was just full.

"You all eat, we have guests."

Gu Han said something, then got up and walked out of the courtyard.

Qian Renxue and Xiao Jinni nodded obediently, then continued to eat.

Ah Yin felt a little uneasy. Could it be that Bibi Dong, the senior sister the other party had mentioned, had returned?

"Sister Ayin, I want more to eat."

Seeing that Ah Yin had stopped peeling the shrimp, the little golden lion nudged Ah Yin's arm with its tiny paws and looked at her with its big, innocent eyes.

"Uh, okay."

Ah Yin managed a weak smile. She could clearly sense the importance of this little golden lion to the soul beast clan. Being by its side had also accelerated her cultivation speed, which was why she treated the little beast so well.

Look at Xiao Qianrenxue, she still has to peel them herself, but this is also because Xiao Qianrenxue likes to eat them by herself.

Although she's a bit clumsy when using chopsticks, she's a very easy little girl to take care of.

Ah Yin was peeling shrimp while looking at the gate at the entrance of the courtyard, appearing completely absent-minded.

Gu Han was unaware of A Yin's thoughts. After leaving the courtyard, he went down the mountain and encountered the two people who were walking towards him halfway up the mountain.

"Master, Brother Fengzhi."

Gu Han smiled and waved.

"Brother Gu, I'm sorry to bother you."

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and shook hands with Gu Han.

After secretly observing Gu Han's aura, Chen Xin sighed inwardly. Gu Han's current strength was no longer comparable to that of an ordinary Title Douluo; perhaps even he himself was no match for him.

"Brother Fengzhi and Master, I'm so happy you could come. There's no need to disturb you. You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'm having a meal with Xue'er and the others right now. Let's go upstairs and eat and chat together."

"Then Uncle Jian and I will accept the offer without hesitation."

Ning Fengzhi laughed heartily.

"Xiao Han, the Spirit Hall has mobilized so much across the country recently. His Holiness the Pope said it was your doing. If you need any help, just tell me and Feng Zhi."

On the way, Chen Xin spoke up at Ning Fengzhi's prompting.

Gu Han smiled, "I really do need Brother Feng Zhi's help."

"Oh, tell me about it?"

Ning Fengzhi raised an eyebrow and said with great interest.

"To be honest, I want to establish schools belonging to the Spirit Hall in various places. Both funding and teaching staff are problems. The Spirit Hall has many people who can train teachers, but the money is not something that can be raised in a short time."

"If Brother Fengzhi wants to help, how about investing and collaborating?"

Gu Han had long anticipated Ning Fengzhi's arrival, and the matter of the Propaganda Hall was still in its initial stage, so no information could be leaked to the outside world.

Ning Fengzhi was not easily fooled, so Gu Han came up with a plan, which was also his next step.

In his years of observation, Gu Han discovered that almost all the literate people on the continent were Soul Masters, while commoners had virtually no place to go to school, let alone have any education.
