Before Yu Yuanzhen could speak, the Elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect around him showed an incredulous expression…
"What Bone Douluo said is indeed true; these creatures didn't leave behind any soul bones or soul rings after they died!"
"I can't believe it, they're really not soul beasts, no wonder they were so troublesome to deal with!"
"These creatures are called abyssal creatures, I've never heard of them before, but since Bone Douluo said so, it must be true!"
"If that's the case, it seems we don't need to be worried about powerful soul beasts showing up and can join the battle!"
"Sect Master, give the order. Let the disciples hold the line, we Elders can't sit back without honor!"
Yu Yuanzhen pursed his lips, "Alright, since Sect Master Ning and Bone Douluo have an understanding of these abyssal creatures, we have nothing to fear!"
"My fellow Elders, I entrust you with the task of slaying those abyssal creatures!"
With the nature of Sect Master Ning and Bone Douluo, they certainly wouldn't make empty promises; they must be absolutely confident!
So, there was no reason for him to stop the Elders from taking action!
As soon as these words were spoken, the Elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, who had been eager to fight, unleashed their Martial Souls and launched an attack on the abyssal creatures ahead…
Ning Fengzhi looked towards Gu Rong and suggested, "Uncle Bone, you should join them too!"
Without refusal, the latter promptly joined the battle…
"Look fast, the Elders have made their move, those abyssal creatures are finished!"
"That's right, with the Elders taking action, these abyssal creatures are no match for us!"
"Eh… that is… Bone Douluo from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, the elder has actually come too, doesn't that mean the reinforcements have arrived?"
"That's great, with Bone Douluo here, our chances of defeating these abyssal creatures are even higher, everyone join in, we've been holding back for so long, it's time to counterattack!"
In an instant, the battle desire of the disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was ignited, and they were almost defeating the abyssal creatures in retreat…
Observing the situation before him, Ning Fengzhi said softly, "It seems, if we continue like this, holding off these abyssal creatures won't be difficult!"
Hearing this, Yu Yuanzhen also expressed his gratitude, "This is all thanks to Sect Master Ning's warning; otherwise, we might have held back and caused more disciples to fall!"
Ning Fengzhi showed no change in expression, responding casually, "Sect Master Yu is too kind. Even if we hadn't come, I believe the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, with its foundation, would have withstood easily!"
The reason for seeking reinforcements was probably the fear of encountering existences like hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!
Yu Yuanzhen, however, didn't see it that way and sincerely replied, "No matter what, I am grateful that Sect Master Ning and Bone Douluo have come to support us personally. I, Yu Yuanzhen, will remember this favor. If the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect ever faces difficulty, my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will not stand idly by!"
After a pause, he continued with confusion, "But one thing I don't understand… Even if Sect Master Ning received the message for support at the first instance, it would not have been possible to arrive so promptly!"
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi did not hide the truth, "To be honest, it was a coincidence."
"Uncle Bone and I had already set out a few days ago, planning to meet with Sect Master Yu and Tang Sect Master."
"It just so happened that today we saw the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Gate under attack by abyssal creatures, and thought we might be able to offer some help!"
Yu Yuanzhen stroked his chin, pondering, "So that's the case!"
No wonder the reinforcements arrived so quickly; it was because Sect Master Ning had already planned to come here!
"However, Sect Master Ning, your visit wouldn't happen to be because of Xu Sheng, would it?"
He vaguely remembered that the other party did not want to participate in the assassination plan against Martial Soul Hall's Saint Heir Xu Sheng!
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, "Yes, my visit this time is actually to persuade both of you to give up the assassination against Xu Sheng."
"This will not only bring no benefits but might even cause the upper three families to fall apart!"
Yu Yuanzhen frowned, "Cause the upper three families to fall apart? Sect Master Ning's words, even Martial Soul Hall can't do that, right?"
Although he was very grateful for the other party's help, that was a different matter!
Ning Fengzhi sighed, "Indeed, Martial Soul Hall can't do that now, but Sect Master Yu must not forget... Now the entirety of Tiandou Empire's Soul Masters is joining them in an unending stream, which signifies that the number of future Soul Masters will reach a terrifying level!"
"By then, even if the upper three families join hands, they may not have an advantage over Martial Soul Hall!"
"Furthermore, if the assassination of Xu Sheng fails, it will surely bring the animosity of the other party. A child with such talent growing up is a terrifying influence for any power!"
Yu Yuanzhen pondered for a while before answering, "Sect Master Ning has a point, but... if we let this Xu Sheng grow, he will also be a huge hidden danger for my upper three families!"
"He is, after all, from Martial Soul Hall!"
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi knew it would not be easy to persuade the other party...
"Actually... I have had a brief encounter with this Martial Soul Hall's Saint Heir!"
"Based on my observation, it seems that he holds no hostility towards the upper three families, which is very rare for someone from Martial Soul Hall!"
"Because of this, he may be able to become the link between the upper three families and Martial Soul Hall."
After listening, Yu Yuanzhen's eyes filled with intense surprise, "Sect Master Ning, you actually trust this Martial Soul Hall's Saint Heir so much?"
He trusted the other party's capability to judge people, so since he dared to say so, there must be a reason!
Ning Fengzhi rarely added, "It's not really trust, I suppose, but I feel we could try it. After all, if the upper three families and Martial Soul Hall truly become sworn enemies, Tiandou Empire is likely to be plunged into chaos."
"This would be a disaster for both Soul Masters and commoners!"
"This... But Sect Master Ning, how can you be sure that this Martial Soul Hall's Saint Heir won't follow Pope Bibi Dong's orders in the future and act against our upper three families?"
All prepared for this, Ning Fengzhi patiently explained, "It's simple... because in Bibi Dong's eyes, the one who is really going to inherit the Pope's position is that goddess, Hulena!"
"As for Xu Sheng, his talent is too terrifying, and his controllability too low, making it impossible for him to sit on the Pope's throne!"
Although it was just his speculation, it was likely very close to the truth!
Yu Yuanzhen seemed to have realized something, "If it's really as Sect Master Ning says, then this Martial Soul Hall's Saint Heir could indeed be worth a try!"
"Even if we can't win him over as an ally, we must not let him become an enemy!!"
Even, when necessary, to help this Saint Heir become the Pope of Martial Soul Hall!
Seeing that the other party's attitude was wavering, Ning Fengzhi also gave a suggestion...
"It seems Sect Master Yu has understood my point, so... can we put an end to the matter of assassinating Xu Sheng? I believe there is still a chance to remedy the situation!"
