Chapter 75 Vina: Sect Leader Ning, what excellent tea!
The group stayed in Longcheng for a few more days.
One early morning, before dawn and before the fog had dissipated, Huo Yuhao led the Azure Dragon Guard members to conduct combat drills at the Tianlong Gate's training ground.
He fought against Su Tong, Yu Tianlong, Nan Qiuqiu, and Xingyan all by himself.
As for the members of the Di'ao team, they were badly beaten by the Tianlongmen's youth generation last night and are currently resting in their respective rooms.
Just as the battle was raging, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly approached from afar.
Huo Yuhao pointed his fingers like a sword and parted the gap between the Jade Heaven Dragon's Thunder Claws, then looked in the direction from which the sound came.
Poison Undying rushed over in a flurry of activity.
Recently, Poison Undying has been taking meticulous care of her hair, and the few strands she has left are now quite messy.
Normally, this hair is the old man's precious lifeline, and he has to be very careful when touching it.
But at this moment, he paid no attention to anything else, his face showing extreme anxiety.
"You're in trouble, kid!"
Poison Immortal slapped his shiny forehead: "We forgot about the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
"That old bastard Ning Zaichuan will be waiting in Heaven Dou City until he's rotten!"
Huo Yuhao was stunned at first, then his expression instantly turned horrified.
He's forgotten about this big spender too!
Bai Ming had mentioned this to Huo Yuhao before, saying that Ning Zaichuan, the sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, wanted to meet him.
However, Huo Yuhao was about to break through at that time, so the matter was glossed over by Du Busi.
Ning Zaichuan smiled and said there was no rush, indicating that he could wait for Huo Yuhao to return from his soul hunt in Tiandou City.
As a result, after experiencing events such as the Conferred God Platform, the Evil Soul's Title Conferment, and the Snow Emperor's Enlightenment, Huo Yuhao, who returned to the Body Sect to face the Evil Soul Extermination War, and Du Busi, who was the deputy commander of the extermination war, completely forgot about Ning Zaichuan.
The training ground was silent; everyone stopped what they were doing.
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School?"
Nan Qiuqiu nudged Su Tong: "Is it the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the one that can buy the entire Earth Dragon Gate with just a little money slipping through their fingers?"
Su Tong didn't know what expression to make when she looked at Huo Yuhao: "That's right, it's the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is incredibly wealthy."
Poison Undying counted on his fingers: "It's been almost four months since you started hunting souls."
He then scratched his dwindling hair in frustration.
"If I hadn't been tidying up my storage bracelets to make room for the Dragon Soul Wine and hadn't happened to see the visiting card, I wouldn't have remembered this at all!"
Huo Yuhao's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is known as the number one auxiliary sect on the entire continent. If a cooperation can be reached, it could become the most important financial supporter for the Body Sect's various plans in the future.
However, Huo Yuhao and Du Busi, whose minds were filled with thoughts of killing during this time, completely forgot about the incident.
Huo Yuhao quickly withdrew his martial spirit and shouted to the Azure Dragon Guard, "Let's go!"
"Everyone, pack your things immediately and assemble at the south gate of Longcheng in ten minutes!"
"Now! Immediately!"
The Azure Dragon Guard immediately erupted into chaos.
Before long, shouts like "Where's my wrist guard!", "Has anyone seen my soul tool!", and "Where's my lipstick!" could be heard from inside the Tianlong Gate.
Ten minutes later, in front of the south gate of Longcheng.
As Nan Qiuqiu jogged, she touched up her makeup, almost smearing her lipstick on Xingyan's face while fastening her storage belt backwards.
Yu Tianlong stood ramrod straight, but his hands were constantly busy behind his back, correcting the wristbands that he had worn backwards.
Su Tong was the most normal one, and besides those who were poison-resistant, she was the first person to arrive at the main gate.
"Where are Huo Yuhao and Jiang Peng?" Du Busi frowned.
Just then, a long dragon of dust suddenly rose up inside the Tianlong Gate.
Huo Yuhao, carrying the Heavenly Scale Ancient Halberd on his shoulder, charged forward at breakneck speed.
He had a struggling sack slung across his halberd blade, from which Jiang Peng could be heard making muffled protests.
"Let me out! I haven't finished putting on my socks yet!"
Poison Undying's forehead veins throbbed: "You bunch of little brats, can't you pack something useful?"
Yu Longtu and Nan Shuishui stood aside, watching the farce with twitching lips.
The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gates beside them were trying so hard not to laugh that their faces turned red. In the end, they couldn't hold back any longer, and their shoulders trembled.
Huo Yuhao tossed the Heavenly Scale Ancient Halberd around and tossed Jiang Peng onto the mount prepared by Yu Longtu: "Let's go!"
Dust billowed along the official road as the group headed straight for Tiandou City.
"It's not as scary as the rumors say." Nan Shuishui watched the departing convoy.
Yu Longtu gazed into the distance: "A group of young people, how serious can they be?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a century-old tree at the edge of his vision suddenly crashed to the ground.
Faintly, Nan Qiuqiu's shrill scream could be heard: "Captain Jiang! How many days has it been since you washed your feet!"
"Rouge Dragon! Light of Annihilation! Annihilate it!"
Yu Longtu and Nan Shuishui exchanged a glance, then shook their heads and chuckled.
Meanwhile, in Tiandou City, at Di'ao Academy, and on the Star Gazing Island of Tianxin Lake, lies Qingxin Xiaozhu.
Xuexin, Ning Zaichuan, Jin Peng, and Vina sat by the window, looking at the latest intelligence coming from the Jade Dragon Map in Longcheng.
"Count Ho is quite cunning."
A smile appeared in Ning Zaichuan's eyes: "To bury the Poison Dragon Sect alive, to have such a mindset at this age, is remarkable."
"Moreover, it is even more rare to subdue the young sect leaders of the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gates and have them join the Azure Dragon Guard."
Xuexin remained silent, because what he was about to say was not appropriate for him to say.
"How dare he keep Sect Leader Ning waiting for so long!" Jin Peng feigned wide-eyed anger. "This brat is simply outrageous!"
"It's a wonder that Sect Master Ning specifically set up five soul tool workshops in Heaven Dou City and invested in three merchant guilds related to the far north to pave the way for him, yet he still hasn't returned!"
"The Body Sect and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have been on good terms for generations; there's no reason to keep our elders waiting!"
"Sect Leader Ning, don't worry, I'll definitely have a good talk with him when he returns!"
Ning Zaichuan looked up at Jin Peng.
He made no mention of the incident a thousand years ago when the Body Sect, which was struggling to make ends meet, disguised themselves as Shrek Academy members and robbed the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Ning Zaichuan smiled and said, "It's alright. Compared to these intelligence matters, seeing me isn't that important."
"Eliminating the evil spirit masters is the right thing to do."
Vina took a sip of tea and exclaimed in surprise, "Excellent tea!"
"Excellent tea, excellent tea, Sect Leader Ning, it truly is excellent tea."
"This is the Seven Aperture Exquisite Tea, unique to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School, which can help people calm their minds and concentrate their spirits."
Ning Zaichuan took out a can of tea from his storage ring: "If Your Highness likes it, you may take it all."
Vina quickly waved her hand: "Sect Leader Ning has already funded the establishment of the Heavenly Ring Purifying Lotus Soul Guide Guard Team and donated so many supplies to the Empire. I really can't accept this tea anymore."
"Your Highness, there's no need to be so polite," Ning Zaichuan said, pushing the Seven Aperture Exquisite Tea towards her. "This is a mutually beneficial arrangement."
"After my daughter transfers to Di'ao Academy, I will have to ask Your Highness to take good care of her."
"Similarly, I hope my daughter can serve the Di'ao team in the upcoming Soul Master Competition."
