"Mmm Good."

When Xiao Qianrenxue realized she had been discovered, she didn't panic. She stood up straight and nodded her little head.

Gu Han rubbed Qian Renxue's head, then looked at A Yin, who was tidying up the table, and said, "Keep an eye on them and don't let them run out."

Ah Yin secretly pursed her lips and asked, "When will you release my soul power?"

To prevent Ah Yin from doing anything, Gu Han sealed her soul power. Although he couldn't stop her cultivation progress, she couldn't use any of her abilities.

"Didn't I say I'd wait for my senior sister to come back?"

Gu Han squatted down and stroked the little golden lion's fur. The lion squinted its eyes, clearly enjoying the moment.

Qian Renxue: 'I told you this is a special dog, but you still won't admit it.'

“Brother Gu, we’ve said everything we needed to say. The remaining issues are just minor matters that need to be addressed during the operation. We can resolve them as we go. Uncle Jian and I won’t bother you any longer. I’ll go back and raise funds to start a pilot project near the sect.”

“Very well, I will send a Soul Saint over there to help you prepare for the construction of the local school.”

Gu Han nodded. The issues that needed to be discussed had been discussed to a large extent. As Ning Fengzhi said, the remaining issues would be resolved as they were being addressed.

"In that case, Uncle Jian and I will take our leave."

"Let me see you off."

Upon arriving at the gate of the courtyard, Ning Fengzhi stopped and said, "Brother Gu, let's stop here."

After watching Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi fly away on their swords, Gu Han returned to his courtyard.

As soon as I entered, I saw Xiao Qianrenxue and Xiao Jinni standing in a row, their big eyes staring at me without blinking.

Gu Han smiled and led the two little ones down the mountain, with A Yin obediently following behind.

Gu Han not only bought candy for the two little ones, but also some small toys.

"Fengzhi, why are you in such a hurry to go back? I was planning to spar with Xiaohan."

On the way, Chen Xin spoke up, saying that he had originally planned to wait until the two finished their business and then find an opportunity to spar with Gu Han in swordsmanship.

However, considering that Ning Fengzhi, as the sect leader, returned so quickly, he must have his own reasons.

But the questions that need to be asked should still be asked.

“Uncle Jian, there’s plenty of time for sparring later. It’s just that I suddenly can’t see Brother Gu clearly anymore. I’m afraid his purpose is not as simple as he says.”

Ning Fengzhi frowned. On the way back, he kept replaying the conversation between the two in his mind.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that things weren't so simple.

Perhaps due to the vast difference in information, even though Ning Fengzhi was very intelligent, he found it difficult to guess Gu Han's true purpose without prior knowledge.

"You mean, Xiaohan lied?"

"No, Brother Gu wasn't lying, but he must be hiding his true purpose. Building a school is real, and so is the cooperation, but I can't figure out his real purpose."

"Feng Zhi, I think you're overthinking it. What Xiao Han is doing is simply to continue to win over more people's hearts so that he can gain more faith and help himself become a god, while also consolidating the Spirit Hall's position on the continent."

"Perhaps."

Ning Fengzhi sighed and said with emotion, "If only Brother Gu were a member of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, such a talented person would have been snatched up by the Spirit Hall."

"Haha, Fengzhi, you've said that at least a hundred times. Aren't you tired of it? My ears are about to fall off."

Chen Xin smiled helplessly. Over the past few years, Ning Fengzhi had almost always lamented that Gu Han was not a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School whenever he mentioned him.

As the two chatted, they flew into the sect from the sky.

"Fengzhi, you're back. How are you?"

The two naturally knew what Gu Rong was asking, and Ning Fengzhi briefly recounted the matter.

"Build schools for commoners? Become gods?" Gu Rong frowned, puzzled. "If becoming a god is just a matter of this, then wouldn't all those Limit Douluos of the past ten thousand years have already become gods?"

"Although only a handful of people reach the limit, it's not impossible. That kid's purpose is definitely not simple."

"Yes, Uncle Bone, you think the same way I do."

Ning Fengzhi nodded. "Moreover, Brother Gu also said that there are other things he didn't say, but what is certain is that it will not harm the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; on the contrary, it will be beneficial."

“Since it’s a benefit, Fengzhi, you don’t need to worry about it. Xiaohan wouldn’t harm us,” Chenxin said.

“Uncle Jian, I’m not worrying unnecessarily. I just don’t want to be led by the nose. That’s too passive. We need to understand what the other party will do next.”

Ning Fengzhi's expression was serious. He wasn't worried that Gu Han would harm Qi Bao, but rather that he didn't want to be kept in the dark. He preferred to live with clarity. He hadn't encountered this situation of not being able to guess what was going on and waiting for the other party to inform him in a long time, especially since it was among his peers, and he was even older than the other party.

This feeling made Ning Fengzhi very uncomfortable.

Gu Rong and Chen Xin exchanged a glance. Knowing Ning Fengzhi's personality, they were helpless. There was nothing they could do. Although they were titled Douluo with great strength, they still left the matters requiring their brains to the sect leader.

Moreover, the problem itself is harmless to the sect, so there's even less need for them to worry about it.

Let Fengzhi figure it out.

"Alas, if only Brother Gu were one of my Seven Treasures." Ning Fengzhi sighed again, not expecting Gu Han's true purpose.

"here we go again."

The two remained silent.

However, Chen Xin still spoke up to advise:

"Fengzhi, if you ask me, whatever Xiaohan does, as long as it benefits the sect and doesn't harm it, that's enough. As for the rest, you don't know anything right now, and you won't figure it out by just guessing. You might as well start preparing and begin building the school."

"Uncle Jian is right, I was just being anxious."

Ning Fengzhi nodded. In the case of information asymmetry, no matter how smart he was, his guesses would be off-target. Rather than that, it was better to get things done first.

Chapter 261 Turbulent Times

Inside the Papal Palace, Chrysanthemum Douluo walked to the center of the hall and bowed slightly to Qian Xunji, who sat at the head of the table.

"Your Holiness the Pope."

"Hmm, Elder Ju has come back from afar, is it because you have some new medicinal herbs?"

Qian Xunji got up and walked down the steps, already guessing the effects of the herbs that Chrysanthemum Douluo had brought back.

"No, it's not. It's a very serious matter."

Chrysanthemum Douluo revealed that he would kill a Title Douluo-level evil soul master in Sunset Forest.

Qian Xunji's expression grew increasingly solemn.

"Someone come here!"

Two golden-armored guards entered from outside the door.

"Go and invite the elders and priests to the Papal Palace. Tell them I have something important to say, and no matter what they are doing, they must come immediately."

"Yes!"

"slow."

Just as the two were about to leave, Qian Xunji called them back and added, "His Highness the Holy Son doesn't need to come; he has other matters to attend to."

"Yes!"

The two turned and left quickly.

Before long, the elders and several enshrined elders left Wuhun City, along with a large number of Soul Emperors and above.

Gu Han naturally noticed the large-scale mobilization. He went to the Papal Palace and encountered Qian Xunji outside the palace.

Gu Han bowed respectfully: "Master."

"Yes, I know what you want to ask. I can handle this. Just focus on your work."

Before Gu Han could ask, Qian Xunji already knew the other party's purpose and said that the other party didn't need to worry about it.

"Master, what is it that is so serious that you have to go to such lengths?"

Gu Han asked, "Such a large-scale operation has been launched, involving so many elders, enshrined elders, experts above the Soul Emperor level, and even the Angel Legion. Apart from the last beast tide, there has never been such a large-scale operation."

"Some time ago, Elder Chrysanthemum of Sunset Forest discovered a Title Douluo-level evil soul master. Such a powerful evil soul master could not have achieved this level by himself alone. There must be an organization behind him. Therefore, I sent out the elders and enshrined guests to various cities to oversee the situation, while also conducting a large-scale search across the continent."

"Even if we have to turn the entire continent upside down, we have to find those evil soul masters. Otherwise, how can I face the Angel God and our ancestors?"

Qian Xunji looked at the angel statue in the Papal Palace square, his expression serious and his tone brooking no argument.

“Xiao Han, I will also be going out in a while. You will be the only Title Douluo left to guard Wuhun City. As the Holy Son of Wuhun Hall, you have the right to make any decisions while I am not here.”

“I understand, Master.”

Gu Han's expression was solemn, and at the same time, he thought to himself that it felt like the emperor was away and the crown prince was overseeing the country.

"Yes, your junior sister is mischievous, so you'll have to keep an eye on her."

Qian Xunji patted Gu Han's shoulder with satisfaction. Thinking that his precious daughter was currently being raised by his disciple, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this kid was truly a useful talent, and that he had indeed made the right choice in judging him.

“Master, Xue’er is very good, so you don’t need to worry. I’m here in Wuhun City, so you can focus on killing the evil soul masters.”

"Ah."

Qian Xunji nodded, patted Gu Han on the shoulder again, and then flew into the sky. More than twenty members of the Angel Legion followed him.

The Spirit Hall's actions quickly drew the attention of various major powers once again.

However, before they could even catch a glimpse of what was going on, the Spirit Hall representatives came knocking on their door, demanding that they cooperate in searching for the whereabouts of the evil spirit masters.

The seven major sects and two great empires were naturally sent by their titled Douluo in person, while the other forces were notified by their respective Spirit Halls.

On this great cause that has been upheld for millennia, no one dares to shirk their responsibilities, and no one wants to be held accountable afterward.

On the Star Luo Empire's side, Dai Hao also outwardly dispatched people to cooperate with the search.

But in the Imperial Garden, he encountered a man in black robes.

"Your presence has been discovered, and the plan will likely have to be postponed."

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, we have plenty of time to wear down the Spirit Hall."

The man in black robes sneered. With gods behind them, they were no longer as afraid of the Spirit Hall as before.

However, their steps are not yet firm. Facing the Spirit Hall, which has such a powerful force, they must temporarily avoid its sharp edge. After all, the great cause that has stood for thousands of years is not so easy to break.

They were fearless because the Killing City was no longer subject to the restrictions of the past. Of course, this meant no restrictions for their organization; those weak fools were still not qualified to leave.
