Chapter 164: How Did I Become Ning Rongrong's Fiancé? (25)
"Cooperation... What do you mean by that, Your Excellency?"
Hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan mention cooperation, Ning Fengzhi didn't refuse but instead, his eyes flashed as he asked carefully.
"Hehe, ever since the mysterious rewarded question-and-answer live stream appeared, I believe Sect Master Ning has also noticed that the future situation of the continent will undoubtedly change drastically because of it."
"Looking at the current situation, the Heaven Dou Empire is far weaker than the Star Luo Empire. Do you, Sect Master Ning, not fear the future consequences of supporting the Heaven Dou Empire?"
"But compared to the Star Luo Empire, our Spirit Hall is undoubtedly stronger, and we have no absolute conflict of interests with your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"Although we also recruit support-type soul masters, most support-type soul masters on the continent still choose to join your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. On this foundation, our two sects can certainly cooperate."
"What the Heaven Dou Empire can give you, our Spirit Hall can give you as well, and in the future, we will be able to offer you even more!"
Looking at Ning Fengzhi, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan said confidently.
"Does Spirit Hall want to unify the continent?"
After hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan's words, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly, but he wasn't particularly surprised.
"Why not?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo didn't beat around the bush and directly asked in return.
"This Douluo Continent will eventually be unified. Why can't Spirit Hall be the ones to do it? You should also know that allowing the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires to continue existing is definitely more harmful than beneficial for the entire continent!"
Hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan's words, Ning Fengzhi fell silent.
Of course, he knew that the rivalry between the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires was not as beneficial as establishing a unified empire.
But could cooperating with Spirit Hall truly bring more benefits to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?
Ning Fengzhi wasn't sure about that yet.
After all, although the future prospects of following the Heaven Dou Empire weren't very promising, would following Spirit Hall and unifying the continent be any better?
Don't forget, if Spirit Hall wanted to unify Douluo Continent, they would almost be against the entire continent.
The Star Luo Empire alone was a tough nut to crack!
Spirit Hall might be able to align with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School because there was no conflict of interests, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had value to offer.
Spirit Hall lacked a support-type sect, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could just fill that gap.
But Spirit Hall couldn't draw in all the forces. For example, Haotian Sect was a deadly enemy of Spirit Hall!
So after thinking for a moment, Ning Fengzhi didn't immediately agree to cooperate with Spirit Hall.
But Chrysanthemum Douluo was not surprised by this.
After all, the person in front of him was the sect master of the second largest force on Douluo Continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
He was no small clan or sect leader, easily excited by Spirit Hall's invitation.
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan knew that Ning Fengzhi wouldn't agree right away, and that had been expected by the Pope.
The reason for this conversation was simply to offer Ning Fengzhi a way out.
With this retreat, when Spirit Hall later makes a move against the entire continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would undoubtedly hesitate and wouldn't immediately help the Heaven Dou Empire.
After all, Spirit Hall had given them a way out.
If it had been Bibi Dong from the original story, she would never have used such a strategy to coax some while attacking others.
In the original story, Bibi Dong placed all her emotions on Yu Xiaogang.
But Yu Xiaogang, aside from taking from Bibi Dong, only brought harm in return!
This caused Bibi Dong to completely darken.
Her goal in leading Spirit Hall to conquer the continent was to destroy the continent, destroy Spirit Hall, destroy the Qian family, and destroy herself!
But after the exposure in the live stream, Bibi Dong had discovered the true face of Yu Xiaogang and re-evaluated her feelings, directing them towards her daughter, Qian Renxue.
And after Lin Yu's repeated statements, that without Spirit Hall, Douluo Continent would be in ruin due to Tang San, Bibi Dong had some conflicting feelings.
After all, she was born into a commoner family.
This was when Chrysanthemum Douluo's mission to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was initiated.
"Sect Master Ning may not believe in the sincerity of Spirit Hall, but that's alright. We bring our sincerity with us."
"I've heard that Sect Master Ning has a daughter, and she is seven years old today. Coincidentally, our innate full soul power support-type genius Lin Yu is also seven years old, and they're about the same age. How about we arrange a betrothal between our families?"
"This is merely a sign of our sincerity. As for whether the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School agrees to today's cooperation, we won't force it."
Upon Ning Fengzhi's silence, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan continued to smile softly and spoke.
"What? His name is Lin Yu?!"
Upon hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo mention the name Lin Yu, Ning Fengzhi was immediately shocked.
"Sect Master Ning, don't be too agitated. He and the Lin Yu you know are just name twins. We have confirmed this from Spirit Hall."
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's startled expression, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan wasn't surprised, merely explaining helplessly.
"Lin Yu..."
However, hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo's words, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but glance at Lin Yu again, his mind still filled with doubt.
Could it really not be him?
This is an innate full soul power support-type soul master, and his soul abilities are quite special...
Although, according to Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan, this Lin Yu joined Spirit Hall over a year ago.
That Lin Yu's first wish must have been to learn about Douluo Continent's past, present, and future, not to wish for a martial soul.
So, the possibility of this being the Lin Yu from the original story could indeed be ruled out.
But Ning Fengzhi still had a strange feeling in his heart.
"Sect Master, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's rules..."
Hearing that Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan wanted Ning Rongrong to be betrothed to a support-type soul master, Sword Douluo Chenxin couldn't help but frown, preparing to have Ning Fengzhi reject it.
After all, according to the rules of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the spouses of their support-type soul masters must be powerful battle soul masters, and Lin Yu was a support-type soul master.
Moreover, Sword Douluo Chenxin didn't want his beloved goddaughter Ning Rongrong to marry a support-type soul master who couldn't protect her.
Even if this support-type soul master was very talented.
"It's fine, we agree!"
However, to Chrysanthemum Douluo's proposal, Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed, and he smiled as he agreed.
"Sect Master!"
On the side, Sword Douluo Chenxin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong both became anxious.
However, Ning Fengzhi waved his hand and interrupted them.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, there's no need to say anything. I know what I'm doing."
"Hehe, then I wish for our Spirit Hall to have a lasting and harmonious relationship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's agreement, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan was a bit surprised but still smiled lightly and congratulated him, as instructed by Pope Bibi Dong.
In response, Ning Fengzhi nodded and smiled.
He wouldn't regret agreeing to this engagement.
He had always been an investor, but investments always carry risks.
However, relying on his instincts, most of his investments had been profitable.
It was through his intuition that he spent a lot of time recruiting Sword Douluo Chenxin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, who weren't Title Douluo yet, which led to the current state of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
This time, he still chose to trust his instincts.
However, on the side, listening to Ning Fengzhi and Chrysanthemum Douluo Yueguan's conversation, Lin Yu couldn't help but be stunned.
What is this? Why did he just become Ning Rongrong's fiancé?
Why didn't I know anything about this beforehand?
