Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo.

Chapter 341 A Fight to the Death

The man in black ignored Qian Gu Dongfeng's question and turned to look at Zang Xin.

Zang Xin was taken aback when he saw the man in black, but the serious expression on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

The man in black was none other than Cao Dezhi, the ruthless Douluo and leader of the Tang Sect.

The disappearance of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was a matter of utmost importance, and as the deputy sect leader, he naturally had to inform Cao Dezhi, the sect leader of the Tang Clan.

Zang Xin had no idea that Cao Dezhi would return to Shrek City without saying a word.

Seeing that he was being ignored by Cao Dezhi, Qian Gu Dongfeng said unhappily, "Cao Dezhi, you'd better return to the Blood God Legion immediately before you make a big mistake."

"Otherwise, you can expect to face trial by the federal government!"

"Judging me? By the federal government?"

Cao Dezhi snorted coldly, his tone full of undisguised contempt for the federal government.

"As the leader of the Tang Clan, I abandoned the Tang Clan and volunteered to guard the Abyss Passage for more than sixty years."

"For the past sixty years, I have never left the Abyss Passage, spending my days and nights with the abyss's aura, my life hanging by a thread. For whom?"

"Isn't it all for the peace of the Federation, to prevent the human defenses from collapsing?"

Cao Dezhi's voice gradually became lower and his tone became increasingly cold.

"But what did we get in return?"

Cao Dezhi then changed the subject, pointing the finger directly at the ancient Dongfeng.

"In return, you Spirit Pagoda have repeatedly tripped up my Tang Clan behind my back, trying to shake the very foundation of my Tang Clan."

The moment he finished speaking, an invisible pressure erupted from Cao Dezhi's body.

Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Cao Dezhi, Qian Gu Dongfeng's expression suddenly changed.

"Cao Dezhi, don't you dare slander our Spirit Pagoda!"

"Our Spirit Pagoda has always maintained a clean and honest record. When have we ever tried to trip up your Tang Sect?"

"This is clearly a case of your Tang Clan having something to hide; you deliberately framed Su Mo, hoping to use this opportunity to get rid of him!"

"Besides, don't you know why you're stationed in the Abyss Passage?"

Although Qian Gu Dongfeng's tone remained firm, it lacked the flippancy he displayed when facing Zang Xin, instead conveying a deep sense of apprehension.

There was no way around it; in a one-on-one fight, Zang Xin was no match for him.

But Cao Dezhi was different; Cao Dezhi was already slightly better than him back then.

Now his cultivation has reached the peak of demigod, which has angered Cao Dezhi to the point that he might actually draw his sword and attack him.

Not to mention Zang Xin is here too!

Even Yun Ming would have to give way to the two of them when they join forces, let alone him.

Cao Dezhi sneered, "Since you say I have ulterior motives for staying in the Abyss, why don't you take my place, Qian Gu Dong Feng!"

"snort!"

Qian Gu Dong Feng was speechless after being choked by Cao Dezhi's words. He snorted coldly and turned his head to the other side with a displeased expression.

Their Spirit Tower is a large and powerful organization, and they don't even look at the Blood God Legion's paltry sums!

Unless he's completely out of his mind, he wouldn't give up his comfortable position as the master of the Spirit Pagoda to suffer in that godforsaken place.

Seeing this, Cao Dezhi ignored Qian Gu Dongfeng and coldly swept his gaze across the entire scene before saying in a chilling voice, "Su Mo is someone our Tang Clan is definitely taking away today!"

"Anyone who dares to obstruct us will be sworn enemies of the Tang Clan!"

As soon as Cao Dezhi said this, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Qian Gu Dongfeng, in particular, stared wide-eyed at Cao Dezhi with an incredulous expression.

Cao Dezhi is the leader of the Tang Clan, and his words represent the will of the Tang Clan.

Since he said that, it means that he was definitely not just saying it casually.

Qian Gu Dongfeng really couldn't understand what exactly the Tang Clan had lost.

It's astonishing that Cao Dezhi, who is known for his composure, insisted on forcibly arresting Su Mo even without any evidence!

He was even willing to give up the Blood God Legion, which he had painstakingly built up over sixty years.

It is important to understand that under the jurisdiction of the federal government, no force is allowed to possess a fully-fledged army, not even their Spirit Pagoda.

Apart from Shrek Academy, which, due to historical issues, enjoys a high degree of autonomy and can naturally possess a sizable organized army, other factions are excluded.

The Blood God Legion is the only exception.

The Blood God Legion was a legion established by the Federation to defend against the invasion of the Abyss.

It is not only the strongest of the nine legions of the Federation, but also the only legion that is independent of the Federation military system.

Being independent of the military system means that the Blood God Legion's actions are completely outside the jurisdiction of the Federation, and all personnel changes do not require the approval of the federal government.

If managed properly, it is easy to build up a sizable force within the Blood God Legion.

This is why Cao Dezhi went to oversee the Blood God Legion.

But now, in order to capture Su Mo, Cao Dezhi has actually abandoned all of that.

But curiosity aside!

Since Cao Dezhi has said so, he naturally won't rush over to risk trouble.

Moreover, he would be happy to see Tang Sect actually manage to kill Su Mo.

After all, nobody likes being ridden on.

Last night, the Spirit Pagoda held an all-night meeting to discuss Su Mo's situation.

The final conclusion was, "Treat others as well as possible, and never offend them!"

Therefore, Qian Gu Dongfeng gave his grandson, Qian Gu Zhangting, a special warning.

Tell him to put away his ulterior motives and stop thinking about Gu Yue.

As for why they didn't try their best to recruit Su Mo into the Spirit Pagoda?

Of course, it's because the host is weak and the guest is strong, making it easy to invite trouble.

Their ancient family seized control of the Spirit Pagoda from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy in the same way, so how could they possibly repeat the same mistake?

It would be even more impossible for the Holy Spirit Cult to nip Su Mo in the bud before he could grow up.

Creating a formidable enemy for no reason could lead to them discovering something by following the clues.

Then his years of planning would be ruined in an instant.

But if Su Mo were killed by the Tang Clan, things would be completely different.

He not only reaps the benefits without lifting a finger, but also eliminates Su Mo, a potential threat.

We've won so many times we're practically mad!

Thinking this, Qian Gu Dongfeng silently took a step back. "Since that's the case, then my Spirit Pagoda will not get involved in this matter!"

Cao Dezhi glanced coldly at Qian Gu Dongfeng, knowing full well what Qian Gu Dongfeng was thinking.

But he had no choice; he had to do it even if there was only the slightest chance.

"Why!"

Seeing this, Ye Changsong sighed helplessly.

Zang Xin noticed the change in Ye Changsong's expression and quickly reassured him, "Elder Ye, there's no need to worry. Our Tang Clan will not do anything drastic to Su Mo."

Cao Dezhi turned around and glanced at Zang Xin unexpectedly, but he didn't say anything.

Since Zang Xin did this, he must have had his reasons.

Moreover, the Ye family is an established family in the Federation and wields significant influence within the federal government.

He has to give him some face, at least a little.
