Chapter 47: A Wasted Trip
"By the way, is there still no information on the Soul Hunters led by Gu Rong?"
Xue Qinghe suddenly remembered the matter of having She Long investigate by pricking his blood. Half a month had passed, so he should have made some progress by now, right?
"Well!"
She Long reluctantly stepped forward, sobbing for a long time without uttering a single word.
"There hasn't been any news yet, has there?"
Xue Qinghe looked at She Long in shock.
Besides the Haotian Sect, the other two major sects have been thoroughly investigated, and they still haven't figured it out?
"Indeed, nothing was found during the investigation. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has no record of such a genius at all."
She Long scratched his head awkwardly and said that Xue Qinghe had asked them to give him news in three days, but they had been waiting for half a month and still hadn't gotten anything.
This made him doubt whether the Spirit Hall's covert surveillance work was up to standard.
"Forget it, he's just a Soul Master, nothing to worry about."
By the way, has anything interesting happened at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School lately?
Seeing She Long's state, Xue Qinghe stopped paying attention to the matter and instead inquired about the recent events at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they've had quite a few things happen to them lately."
She Long got excited when he heard this, because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had recently caused a lot of turmoil on the Douluo Continent.
The undercurrents were particularly stirred after the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School announced that it was willing to exchange two soul bones of the same age for a gemstone left leg bone.
Furthermore, Dugu Bo's joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has caused the other one king and four duchies under the Heaven Dou Empire to show signs of restlessness.
She Long told Xue Qinghe about all the major events that had happened on the mainland.
"So, Ning Fengzhi has already collected five soul bones, and is only missing the last gemstone left leg bone?"
Xue Qinghe stroked his chin thoughtfully.
"Ning Fengzhi probably wanted to use the power of the six gemstone soul bones to forcibly enhance Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to put in so much effort to do this.
After thinking for a moment, She Long said.
"Using gemstone soul bones to strengthen the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is indeed a good method. As expected of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, after studying martial soul knowledge for so many years, it seems to have some use."
Xue Qinghe thought for a moment about the emerald left leg bone he had collected and smiled slightly.
The more Ning Fengzhi wants something, the less he's in a hurry to give it up now; this is absolutely the only thought among all the major forces in Douluo Continent.
But it can't be too late, since no one knows who will be the first to make a trade as Ning Fengzhi's stake continues to increase.
The reason this last piece of soul bone is so precious is because it is the last one.
Once Ning Fengzhi has collected all six gemstone soul bones, and before it is confirmed that the gemstone soul bones will be useful for the evolution of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the value of gemstone soul bones to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely be greatly reduced.
"Also, young master, that kid you asked us to keep an eye on is a bit difficult to deal with."
She Long felt a toothache whenever he thought of Gu Xuan.
"Gu Xuan, what's wrong with him this time?"
Xue Qinghe was surprised to find that the mysterious genius had disappeared without a trace, and Gu Xuan had also run into trouble.
She Long then gave a report on Gu Xuan's situation at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Anyway, they stayed on Bone Peak and never came down. There was also a Soul Douluo and the newly joined Dugu Bo guarding the peak.
It's practically the most difficult place to explore.
"Oh, it seems this little brother Gu Xuan has a secret too. How come he has a Title Douluo and a Soul Douluo protecting him so closely?"
Thoughts flickered in Xue Qinghe's eyes.
Even if Gu Xuan had innate full soul power, there was no need to be so cautious. That was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; they weren't stupid enough to go to someone else's territory to make a move.
Either Gu Rong dotes on Gu Xuan too much, or Gu Xuan really has some huge secret that makes him feel safe only when a Title Douluo stays by his side.
"Get ready, I want to see what Ning Fengzhi is up to, and I'll also go see that little brother of his."
Xue Qinghe smiled slightly and decided to take a look at the child who had amused him.
More than four months have passed; he should have obtained a spirit ring and improved considerably by now.
After all, he was born with a full soul power.
boom!
In the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, Xue Ye slapped his hand on the table, while Xue Xing stood in front of him with her head bowed, her body trembling slightly.
Logically speaking, Dugu Bo was someone he recruited to the Heavenly Dou Empire. Now that Dugu Bo has left, it won't have much to do with him, since the Heavenly Dou Empire wouldn't have been able to enjoy these years of peace without him.
But what's strange is that although Dugu Bo left, in order not to owe Xue Xing anything, he directly listed all the things he had done over the years to clean up Xue Xing's messes.
Although he did owe Xuexing a life-saving favor, all the events over the years had already paid it off.
In fact, if it weren't for him, Xuexing and Xuebeng would have been dead long ago.
He didn't leave before because of their friendship, but now that friendship is no longer as important as Gu Xuan's orders, he can leave naturally.
Emperor Xueye never expected that Dugu Bo had done so much for Xuexing over the years, and now that he wanted to leave, he had no reason to stop him.
How could he not be angry?
"I'll give you one last chance. If you can't persuade Dugu Bo to come back, then you don't need to come back at all. Just go and retire in the clan's territory."
Emperor Xueye was truly enraged. He threw the guest minister's token left by Dugu Bo at Xuexing's feet and said in an icy tone.
But he couldn't afford to fall out with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so he had no choice but to sacrifice Xue Xing.
Of course, he knew it was impossible to get Dugu Bo to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but as long as Dugu Bo still acknowledged that he was a guest elder of the Heaven Dou Empire, that would be fine.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will do my utmost."
Xue Xing immediately knelt down and shakily picked up the guest elder token, holding it in her hands.
"Get lost."
"Yes, yes!"
Xue Xing scrambled out of the palace. Although the Tian Dou royal family was not as cruel as the Xing Luo royal family, the indifference of the royal family was something that ordinary people could not understand.
Night fell quickly.
Outside, the stars shone brightly, but inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the lights were on full display.
Although it was just a small banquet, it was a great success.
This was the first time the protagonist, Dugu Bo, had experienced the overwhelming power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
If a banquet can be prepared like this in just one night, what would it be like if it is prepared six months in advance?
During the banquet, the various powerful families in Tiandou City mingled and exchanged toasts, all looking at Dugu Bo and Ning Fengzhi on the high platform with envious eyes.
Their family's strongest member was only a Soul Douluo or Soul Saint, which was no match for a powerful sect like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
They already had two Super Douluo, and now another Nuclear Bomb Douluo has arrived, making them extremely envious of the separation of the plasma wall.
On the high platform, Xue Qinghe looked to the left and right, but did not notice the person he wanted to see, whose face showed a hint of doubt.
Logically speaking, as a high-ranking disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the other party should not be absent from such a banquet.
A hint of doubt flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes as he watched Ning Rongrong playing and frolicking among the crowd.
