Douluo: The martial soul Nine-headed Xiangliu swallows the sky and devours the earth!

Chapter 168 The Big Show?

It has been a long time since the sale of second-grade pills, but as for third-grade pills, they have no plans to sell them yet, at least not at this stage.

"What about the other matter, Father?" Dugu Xiao asked. If it were just this matter, his father wouldn't have shown that kind of expression when he returned.

"This second thing is the most crucial thing!" Dugu Bo said with a smile.

Everyone was all ears.

"To be honest, when I found out, I still couldn't believe it. I never expected that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would go to such lengths. It was really beyond my expectations."

"The sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is actually preparing to take Xue Qinghe as his disciple and completely side with Xue Qinghe, even if it's only in name! It's still shocking enough!"

"What!" Dugu Xiao gasped upon hearing this, "Why would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School do this? Does it benefit them in some way?"

Lin Wanqiu also looked solemn. Ning Fengzhi told their father about this matter. What was the meaning behind it? It was quite intriguing.

"The benefits?" Dugu Bo pondered for a moment.

"To enhance the influence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and with the help of Xue Qinghe becoming emperor in the future, we will leap to become the number one sect in the world, and at the same time become a key sect within the Heaven Dou Empire."

"The most powerful sect, and the national sect of the Heaven Dou Empire? Or perhaps, the sect that protects the country, am I right?" Dugu Yao asked at this moment.

This was not surprising to him, after all, in the original timeline, Xue Qinghe had become Ning Fengzhi's disciple, although it was only in name, there was still a master-disciple relationship.

Xue Qinghe consolidated his position as crown prince with the help of Ning Fengzhi, while Ning Fengzhi, with the help of Xue Qinghe, expanded his sect once again after becoming emperor.

Although doing so would lead to a deeper entanglement with the Heavenly Dou royal family, it would definitely be more beneficial than harmful to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; otherwise, Ning Fengzhi would not have made such a decision.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded slightly and said, "That's right, that's basically the idea. Since the fall of the Haotian Sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has been enjoying boundless glory and is at its zenith."

"But it lacks staying power and is not yet strong enough to become the number one sect in the world like the Haotian Sect. The allure of being the number one sect in the world is still very strong."

"This Sect Master Ning is also working towards this goal. He took Xue Qinghe as his disciple in order to leverage the power of the Heaven Dou Royal Family in the future. However, this has nothing to do with us."

Dugu Yan spoke up, "Then why did Sect Leader Ning tell Father? This kind of thing shouldn't have been leaked before Brother Qinghe became a disciple."

"What else could it be? Of course, they want to win us over. The Xuanling Pill Sect is also on Xue Qinghe's side, but of course, I didn't agree," Dugu Bo said with a smile.

“Getting too entangled with the royal family won’t do us any good, and we don’t need to use the royal family’s power to do anything.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slightly. Indeed, their Xuanling Pill Sect had nothing that required the help of the royal family; they only needed to develop steadily.

"The title of the number one sect in the world is truly captivating, actually causing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to make such a decision." Dugu Bo stroked his chin, seemingly deep in thought.

"Of course, Ning Fengzhi is just trying to win us over. After all, our cooperation with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is very close, and it's unlikely that we can completely win them over."

"It will also greatly benefit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School." Don't underestimate their sect just because they are currently keeping a low profile; they are a powerful force that cannot be ignored. "If Xue Qinghe were still Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi's actions would indeed be more beneficial than harmful to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. But the Xue Qinghe we know now is not the real Xue Qinghe."

Dugu Yao thought to himself that Ning Fengzhi would inevitably lose everything in the end.

But is the title of the number one sect in the world really that alluring? Perhaps it is. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is currently very close to becoming the number one sect in the world.

As for their Xuanling Pill Sect, they are still far behind.

Despite having a pill industry, the Xuanling Pill Sect, which has only been around for a few years, still lacks a solid foundation.

Dugu Bo leaned back lazily on the sofa and said, "Ning Fengzhi made a brilliant move. With the help of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Xue Qinghe's throne is as solid as a rock."

Although Xue Qinghe was originally named Crown Prince, he was actually somewhat unstable. He was good in all aspects, but in terms of cultivation talent, compared with the other princes.

There are some shortcomings. The fourth prince is still young and his future is uncertain, but the second and third princes are indeed potential threats.

"Now let's just wait quietly for the banquet to begin tonight. Who knows how much of a sensation this grand spectacle will cause?" Dugu Bo said with amusement.

"Among the three major sects, the most powerful Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has actually sided with Xue Qinghe. It is likely that this will cause a sensation not only within the royal family."

"Once the news gets out, it will probably cause a huge uproar in the Soul Master world!" Dugu Xiao said calmly, which was inevitable.

"However, none of this has anything to do with us. Our Xuanling Pill Sect is still somewhat weak at present, and we can develop steadily."

"To be honest, establishing a sect is really tiring. No wonder those titled Douluo in the past preferred to join other forces rather than create their own sects."

"Leaving aside our foundation for the time being, the affairs of the sect alone are very troublesome. If it weren't for Yao'er's inheritance of the Fierce God, we would probably be even more struggling."

Dugu Bo said with some emotion, "From the founding of the sect to its current state, it has only been a short time, which is truly astonishing."

Everyone says that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is currently enjoying great success, and its development momentum has been extremely rapid since the fall of the Haotian School. However, their Xuanling Pill School is actually a ferocious beast hidden in the shadows.

Their development momentum was equally rapid, not only recruiting three of the four single-attribute sects under the Clear Sky Sect, but also gaining three Soul Douluo powerhouses for free.

The reason it didn't attract much attention from the Soul Master world was simply because their Xuanling Pill Sect kept a low profile; after all, excessive rigidity leads to breakage, and they hadn't yet become powerful enough.

Their Xuanling Pill Sect should keep a low profile; seeking stability is their current main strategy.

“That’s true,” Dugu Xiao said calmly.

Then they all began to wait quietly for the evening banquet to begin, while also anticipating the grand spectacle that would unfold—something no one could have imagined.
