Moreover, Chen Xin's swordsmanship has clearly broken away from traditional sword routines. It changes according to the actual combat situation, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes hard, sometimes soft, making it impossible for people to figure out how the opponent will strike next.

"Slap slap slap!!"

Applause erupted, and Ning Fengzhi exclaimed in admiration, "Young Brother Gu has achieved so much at such a young age; it truly proves the saying that heroes have emerged from among the young since ancient times."

Gu Han smiled modestly: "Sect Leader Ning, you flatter me."

"Young friend Gu, there's no need for such modesty," Chen Xin said with a smile. "I can see that you already possess sword intent. May I ask what you consider the Way of the Sword?"

Upon hearing this question, everyone turned their attention to Gu Han.

Gu Han pondered for a moment, his eyes sharpening, and replied, "A sword is a weapon of killing, so it is naturally meant for killing. This is common sense, and I will not deny it. But I believe that a sword is actually a way of protection. If you carry a three-foot sword, you should protect the people you care about."

"If you can't even protect the people you care about, what's the point of standing at the pinnacle of swordsmanship one day?"

"To protect those you care about?" Chen Xin murmured, nodding slightly in agreement. "Indeed, although a sword is a weapon of killing, it is also a weapon of self-defense and protection. It protects those you care about and slays all the villains who dare to invade."

"I have nothing more to teach you about swordsmanship, but I have a set of sword techniques and some insights into the way of the sword and its domain, which may be of some help to you."

Qian Xunji raised an eyebrow slightly, not expecting Sword Douluo to be so generous. It was only their first formal meeting, yet he was already planning to pass on the Chen family's unique skills.

Ning Fengzhi was also somewhat surprised. He thought that Uncle Jian only wanted to guide the younger generation, but he never expected that Uncle Jian would be willing to pass on his family's unique skills.

Compared to Ning Fengzhi and Qian Xunji's astonishment, Bibi Dong was different. Her face was full of joy, happy and proud that her junior brother had learned such powerful swordsmanship.

He was proud that such a talented person was actually his junior brother.

Gu Han looked at Qian Xunji, as if asking for his opinion. Qian Xunji nodded slightly, indicating that he had no objection.

Seeing this, Gu Han then bowed to Chen Xin as a disciple.

"Disciple Gu Han greets Master."

"Hahaha, very good, very good, I can say that I have a successor."

Chen Xin was overjoyed. He had only come with the intention of teaching the other party a thing or two, but he did not expect to have such an unexpected surprise.

Although a person on the Douluo Continent can only have one teacher in their lifetime, they can still become a disciple of someone else if their original teacher agrees.

However, since the beginning of recorded history, virtually no teacher on the entire continent has ever agreed to let their student become a student of someone else.

This can be said to have set a precedent.

Chapter 70: Qian Xunji and Ning Fengzhi's Scheme, and a Solution to the Problems of the Azure Serpent

Qian Xunji agreed to let Gu Han become his disciple after careful consideration.

Now that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is willing to get closer to the Spirit Hall, he is still a little uneasy. However, if this relationship can be deepened, given the connection between Sword Douluo and Gu Han, it would be even better.

For the next hundred years or so, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was practically a vassal of the Spirit Hall.

When Sword Douluo was alive, the Spirit Hall and Seven Treasures might have had a close cooperative relationship.

But everyone dies, even titled Douluo. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cannot recruit or cultivate new guardian elders a hundred years after Sword Douluo.

Therefore, they will inevitably focus their attention on Gu Han, who has a master-disciple relationship with Sword Douluo. Since Gu Han is their disciple, they will not join Seven Treasures, but will only protect him.

At that time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will only be able to maintain its status on the continent by relying on the Spirit Hall.

"Congratulations, Uncle Jian, on the arrival of your wonderful disciple."

Ning Fengzhi was naturally pleased. He had seen Gu Han's potential, and with the connection through Uncle Jian, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would no longer be coveted by other forces, even without a title to protect it.

As for the drawbacks of this, Ning Fengzhi could naturally see them, but so what?

As long as Qibao survives, there will eventually be a day when they can turn things around. It's better than having no title to protect them in the future and being devoured by the two great empires and other major sects.

Moreover, no one can predict what the future holds; Ning Fengzhi was merely contemplating the worst-case scenario.

"I must thank His Holiness the Pope for his generosity."

Chen Xin was overjoyed to have gained such a fine disciple, but he still remembered to express his gratitude to Qian Xunji for his generosity.

Qian Xunji waved his hand generously and said with a smile, "It's alright. It's Xiao Han's honor to be appreciated by Sword Douluo."

Ning Fengzhi took out a token from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The token was carved from jade and was round in shape, with a lifelike seven-story pagoda depicted on it.

He handed the token to Gu Han.

"By the way, since Brother Gu has become Uncle Jian's disciple, he is naturally my brother Ning Fengzhi, and also half a family member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. With this token, Brother Gu can freely enter and leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"In the future, if Brother Gu needs any help, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will naturally do its part to assist him."

Upon hearing this, Gu Han couldn't help but admire Ning Fengzhi's skill in winning people over.

Gu Han accepted the token and smiled, "Since Sect Leader Ning is willing to acknowledge me as a brother, then it is my honor. In the future, if Sect Leader Ning has any needs, as long as it is within my power, I will naturally not refuse."

"Haha, Brother Gu still calls me Sect Master Ning." Ning Fengzhi smiled elegantly and said, "Although I am a bit older than you, we are of the same generation. If Brother Gu doesn't mind, you can call me Brother Fengzhi from now on."

"Since Brother Fengzhi doesn't mind, why should I, Gu Han, have any objections?"

"Haha, good, good, from now on we'll call each other brothers."

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Han both laughed.

"This trip was definitely worthwhile."

"Xiao Han, there are still many important matters within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that Feng Zhi needs to resolve. I will first safely escort Feng Zhi back to the sect before returning to teach you. Before that, you can take a look at this book."

"This contains my understanding of the way of the sword. As for the Seven Kill Sword Technique, it is passed down orally and there are no records of it."

Gu Han took the thin booklet and cupped his hands in thanks to Sword Douluo and Ning Fengzhi: "Thank you, Master. I wish you and Brother Fengzhi a safe journey."

"Ah."

Ning Fengzhi nodded, then looked at Qian Xunji and said, "Your Holiness, we have troubled you for many days. There are still many matters, both large and small, within the sect that I need to attend to. As for the cooperation, I will put it on the agenda immediately upon my return. I will not stay any longer."

"Alright, I'll personally escort you out of Wuhun City."

"No need for such formalities. His Holiness the Pope is very busy and need not concern himself with these formalities. We can leave on our own."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and waved his hand.

Despite saying that, Qian Xunji still led Gu Han, Bibi Dong, Gui Mei, and Yue Guan to send the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members out of Wuhun City. After another tug-of-war, the two sides finally separated.

“Kid, it’s time for me to head back to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. If you need anything in the future, just go find Old Ghost, or have Old Ghost bring you to Sunset Forest to find me.”

With the Pope's wedding now settled, it's time for Yue Guan to head to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, which will become his training ground and the place he will protect from now on.

The retainer sent by Qian Daoliu was actually Qingluan Douluo. After consuming high-grade medicinal herbs, Qingluan Douluo's strength has greatly increased, reaching the peak of level 97. He also sees hope of breaking through to level 98, and it's only a matter of time before he does.

I believe that once we reach the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the special environment there will help us break through to a faster pace.

"Uncle Ju, my senior sister, Uncle Gui, and I will definitely visit you often."

Gu Han smiled and said that although Yue Guan seemed a bit effeminate in his behavior, he could feel her sincerity towards him.

Moreover, during his time in Wuhun City, Yue Guan had taken care of all matters, big and small, making him Gu Han's master in name only.

Gu Han also treated Yue Guan with the mindset of a disciple.

"Haha, you're very thoughtful, but you and Dong'er are still young, which is the perfect time for you to cultivate. Focusing on your cultivation is the most important thing."

"Uncle Ju is right. Then my senior sister and I wish Uncle Ju a speedy ascension to the title of Douluo."

"Haha, I'll take your good wishes, kid."

Yue Guan laughed heartily, bid farewell to Gui Mei and Bibi Dong, and then left Wuhun City with Qingluan Douluo.

After watching the two leave, Gu Han turned to Bibi Dong and said, "Senior Sister, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. We'll go find Senior Dugu tomorrow."

Gu Han hadn't forgotten his promise to the Dugu father and son to solve the problem of martial spirits. The father and son were currently staying at a hotel in Martial Spirit City.

Now that everything is over, it's time to put this matter on the agenda.

"Ah."

Bibi Dong nodded and walked with Gu Han for a while before parting ways outside the Holy Maiden Temple.

Regarding the problem of Dugu Bo's martial spirit, Gu Han had seen many solutions in his previous life, but without exception, they were all temporary solutions that could only keep one or two generations at ease, and were not long-term solutions.

Moreover, the problem with Dugu Bo's martial soul is not difficult to explain. It's just that the poison attribute brought by the martial soul could not be completely refined by him, so it accumulated in his body.

The solution is simple: just optimize your meditation technique to the point where it can refine all the poisonous soul power within your body.

However, this is extremely difficult. You must know that the Dugu family has been trying to find a solution for generations. Naturally, some people would have thought of meditation, but due to the limited development of cultivation techniques on this continent, they could not succeed.

Dugu Bo's meditation method has been passed on to Gu Han. After several days of research and improvement, and through the deduction of the nameless method, Gu Han has been able to help Dugu Bo transform the poison accumulated in his body into soul power, condense a poison pill, and thus slowly digest it.

This method allows you to store excess poisonous soul power and refine it slowly, without worrying about running out of storage space and it invading your body.

This method, while unable to cause Dugu Bo's martial soul to evolve and mutate like in the novels I've read, can at least prevent his descendants from worrying about being devoured by the Azure Serpent martial soul.

Chapter 71 Solving the Toxin Problem for Dugu Bo

the next day.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong met outside the Spirit Hall and headed to the hotel where Dugu Bo and his son were currently staying.

The two men knew the room where the father and son were staying, so they went straight past the front desk and knocked on the door.

Dugu Xin opened the door and his face lit up with joy when he saw the people who had come. He said with a smile, "Brother Gu, Your Highness, you've finally arrived."

"Brother Dugu Xin, is Senior Dugu not here?"

"Who said I wasn't here?"

Dugu Bo suddenly appeared at the door and said with a smile, "Brother Gu, are you done with your business?"

"Senior Dugu."

"Please don't stand outside, come in and talk."

Dugu Bo was aloof and, although he tried his best to soften his tone, his voice still sounded somewhat cold.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong naturally knew the old man's personality, so they didn't mind, smiled and nodded, and then walked into the room together.

This hotel can be considered a high-end hotel in Wuhun City. Each room is designed according to the standard four-bedroom, two-living room layout, with an internal area of ​​over 200 square meters.

Owning such a large, high-end hotel in a place like Wuhun City, where land is incredibly valuable, demonstrates just how powerful the company is.

Well, this hotel was actually supported by Elder Demon Bear, and theoretically, it belongs to the Spirit Hall.

"Brother Gu, Your Highness, please try this tea. It's a top-grade tea that my father bought at the Tiandou Auction House."
