Chapter 179: Being sold and still counting money (Update)

In front of Huyan Zhen, Lin Hanye and Ning Daorong conspired.

After hearing this, he exclaimed in his heart, what a great guy.

What a good guy.

He originally thought that Lin Hanye was just strong, intelligent, and talented.

But I never expected it.

Lin Hanye’s method of manipulating people’s hearts is so powerful.

In his eyes, Ning Daorong was like an old fox who was dirtier and more cunning than anyone else. In front of Lin Hanye, he was like a little Karami.

The whole process was under control.

Especially the sentence "So-and-so, you don't want to see someone do this or that, right?" It's simply amazing.

Why didn't the Xiangjia Sect think of using such methods before?

If this is the case, even though their Xiangjia Sect cannot rival the top three sects due to the lack of a Titled Douluo, it would have already become an existence far superior to the other four lower sects.

Half an hour later, Huyan Zhen took the token that Lin Hanye had given him on a snowy night, and brought Ning Daorong into the Tiandou Palace to see the ancient banyan tree whose soul power was sealed.

"Elder Gu, I'm sorry for making you suffer."

Right from the start, Ning Daorong played the emotional card, recounting all the contributions Gu Rong had made to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, which deeply moved Gu Rong, an orphan who had lacked love since childhood.

Then, he told everyone about the deal he had made with Lin Hanye, except that Gu Rong needed to die with him and Ning Fengzhi had one leg crippled.

"What? That bastard, besides asking me to take the blame, he also extorted 1 billion gold soul coins from my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and asked my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to pay 30 million gold soul coins every year. Why doesn't he just rob it?"

Gu Rong, who had no idea that he had been sold out, was still speaking up for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

"Alas, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. I think this snowy night was most likely caused by Xue Xing, but he has now reached a consensus with Lin Hanye, and he is the only successor to the throne of the Tiandou Empire. Everything is too late. I have to wrong you. In the days to come, you can only be in the dark."

Ning Daorong looked heartbroken.

According to the agreement between him and Lin Hanye, after Gu Rong confessed his crime, he would be released secretly and allowed to return to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, never to show his face in public again.

Of course, this is just an agreement that can be made known to Gu Rong and Jian Douluo.

Secretly, after Gu Rong leaves Tiandou City, Lin Hanye will take action personally to resolve the issue.

Ning Daorong himself will die together with Gu Rong at the hands of Lin Hanye.

This is currently the only way to save the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

As for Ning Fengzhi's leg, that was another agreement.

"What's the big deal? Isn't it just that I won't show up in public from now on? At worst, I can hide in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect for the rest of my life and let that bitch show up in public."

As long as it was for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Gu Rong felt that it was okay for him to suffer a little injustice.

Ning Daorong nodded, then explained something to him again. Finally, he looked at Gu Rong again, left the palace, and asked his men to find Ning Fengzhi.

It just so happens that tomorrow is the day when Xue Xing ascends the throne and also the day when Gu Rong confesses his guilt. Ning Fengzhi needs to attend as the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.

Before he died, he still needed to give his son some explanation. On the other side, Tang Chen and his party had already returned to Haotian Sect.

As soon as he entered the main hall of Haotian Sect, Tang Chen could no longer suppress the injuries in his body. He puffed and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"Father!"

"Ancestor!" ×6
Upon seeing this, Sect Master Tang Wei and the six Haotian Sect elders he brought back hurriedly surrounded Tang Chen, fearing that something might happen to him. They risked their lives to transmit their soul power to Tang Chen to repair his injuries.

Half an hour later, Tang Chen slowly opened his eyes and took the initiative to cut off the soul power connection between Tang Wei and the other seven and him.

"Father, how do you feel?" Tang Wei helped Tang Chen up.

"I'm fine now. I just got some internal injuries in the final fight with Qian Daoliu, but it's not serious. Fortunately, all this is worth it. Lin Hanye got the fake explosive ring I gave him, and he thought he was invincible from now on. He was very proud of himself and didn't take anyone seriously. Qian Daoliu also promised that no one from the Spirit Hall would step into Haotian Peak before he defeated me in his lifetime."

Tang Chen waved his hand, a smug smile on his face.

"What on earth is going on?"

Tang Wei looked at his father, but he didn't look like he was really okay.

Tang Chen's injuries were not light at all, on the contrary very serious. Fortunately, he was a peerless Douluo, with a recovery ability far exceeding that of ordinary soul masters. Otherwise, if it were another ordinary Titled Douluo, he would have suffered irreparable trauma or even been seriously injured and could not be cured.

The second elder Tang Bai explained: "Sect Master, this is what happened."

As he spoke, he narrated what had happened.

From the battle between Lin Hanye and Tang Chen, to Lin Hanye's reminder to Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen ended up only having a tie with Qian Daoliu, without winning.

He told her everything.

As for why he knew that Lin Hanye had reminded Qian Daoliu, it was naturally because Tang Chen told him and the other five elders on the way here.

"Damn it, it's absolutely damnable. First it was Hao'er, and then it was my father. What hatred does Lin Hanye have against my Haotian Sect? He actually planned to harm our Haotian Sect in this way."

After learning what happened, Tang Wei, the six elders and Tang Chen himself all concluded that Tang Chen did not defeat Qian Daoliu and that Lin Hanye was the one who interfered.

This resulted in Tang Chen having an unfair duel.

He was so angry that his eyes turned red and he started panting like a cow.

After hearing what Tang Wei said, the six elders completely forgot about the previous killing order they had issued to Lin Hanye. Their eyes turned red and they began to breathe heavily, united in their hatred of the enemy.

"Father, you are so seriously injured, don't leave so soon. Stay in Haotian Sect for a few more days to keep an eye on Lin Hanye, who is making things difficult for Haotian Sect. After the matter in Tiandou Empire is over, I am worried that he will come to Haotian Sect to cause trouble for us."

Tang Wei looked at Tang Chen.

Tang Chen was stunned. "What happened in the Tiandou Empire?"

Tang Bai answered for Tang Wei: "Ancestor, during the time when you were fighting with Qian Daoliu, a major event happened in Tiandou City. The Emperor Xue Ye of Tiandou Empire was assassinated. The murderer is said to be Bone Douluo of Qibao Liuli Sect. Now that Bone Douluo has been captured by Lin Hanye and imprisoned in Tiandou Palace. The specific situation is still unknown. But it is a foregone conclusion that Prince Xuexing will ascend the throne."

Tang Chen suddenly realized, "No wonder Lin Hanye left so suddenly. Although I don't know who did it, Gu Rong doesn't have the guts to assassinate the emperor of a country, let alone the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. But these have nothing to do with us. To be safe, I will pretend to leave after the soul ring recovers in three days, and then watch secretly. If the guy doesn't come after a while, it means that something went wrong with his soul ring training. By then, it won't be too late for me to leave."
