Chapter 228 Sword Douluo Makes a Move, Spirit Hall Retreats!
Minutes earlier, on a secluded mountain peak at the edge of the canyon.
Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood side by side, their gazes piercing through the smoke and dust, clearly seeing the fierce battle raging with energy in the canyon below.
Watching the Spirit Hall, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, Tang Hao and his son, and the Tianxing Academy entangled in a fierce battle, especially seeing his daughter Ning Rongrong's Tianxing Academy deeply surrounded.
Ning Fengzhi's usually refined face was now furrowed with worry as he fell into deep thought and deliberation.
He hesitated, wondering whether to get involved in this mess at this moment.
Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is one of the three upper sects, it would be extremely risky to rashly get involved in such a large-scale conflict, especially to directly confront the Spirit Hall.
"Feng Zhi, judging from the current situation, it seems impossible for the Spirit Hall to capture Tang Chuan today."
"Unless... they have other Title Douluos hidden from the scene."
Just then, standing beside him, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, dressed in white with an aura as sharp as a sword, slowly spoke. His voice, like his sword, was clear and direct.
"Should we... make our move now?"
"After all, Rongrong is also at Tianxing Academy. Our intervention now, while not exactly a timely help, is much better than waiting until everything has settled down and the storm has subsided before trying to curry favor."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed. He hesitated for only a brief moment before nodding heavily.
In that situation, Tianxing Academy was at a huge disadvantage. If they were not careful, the entire academy could have been wiped out.
But things are different now; both of the Thousand-Pound Demon-Slaying Guardians have lost their ability to fight.
If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were to make another move at this moment, the outcome would be uncertain.
Having reached a consensus, a glint of light flashed in Sword Douluo Chen Xin's eyes. He said no more. The Seven Kill Sword in his hand, famous throughout the continent, had already sensed its master's fighting spirit and emitted a clear and melodious hum!
The next second, all nine spirit rings on his body shone brightly at the same time, and then he flew away on his sword!
Thus, the scene just now unfolded where the Seven Kill Sword pierced through the air and shocked the entire audience!
…………
On the chaotic battlefield, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had also retreated in a sorry state to the side of Qianjun and Jiangmo, the two elders. The four of them stood together, facing the changing situation before them.
Gazing at the Seven Kill Sword that had suddenly appeared, radiating endless sharpness and a chilling aura, deeply embedded in the ground as if cleaving the entire battlefield in two, Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression changed slightly, and he shouted in a shrill voice, his voice trembling with fear:
"Chen Xin! Does your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also want to get involved in this mess?!"
His voice was threatening, attempting to intimidate the other party with the power of the Spirit Hall.
However, what responded to him was a graceful figure descending from the sky like a startled swan.
It was an old man with white hair and beard, a cold and stern face, sharp eyes like swords, and a tall and straight posture like a pine tree. He landed lightly in front of the Seven Kill Sword, and then stretched out his hand, which was as steady as a rock, and pulled the Seven Kill Sword out of the ground as if without a trace of fire.
Why get involved in this mess?
With a cold laugh, Sword Douluo held the Seven Kill Sword, casually pointing the tip forward. His gaze swept calmly over Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others, his tone indifferent yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.
"My young lady is located within this Tianxing Academy."
"At this moment, I am merely protecting my young lady and her friends... nothing more."
He cleverly defined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's intervention as protecting his young lady and her friends, thus occupying the moral high ground rather than openly opposing the Spirit Hall.
"You...!" Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo was so enraged by Chen Xin's seemingly reasonable but actually forceful statement that he almost spat out another mouthful of blood. He roared:
"So, you mean your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School really intends to oppose us?!"
"Aren't you afraid..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xin merely flicked his wrist, causing the Seven Kill Sword to emit a low, buzzing sound as its sword energy surged. His eyes, as cold as icy stars, stared coldly at Chrysanthemum Douluo. Although he did not speak again, his posture spoke volumes.
So what if it is?
With him here, the Spirit Hall will not be able to touch the Skywalk Academy in the slightest today!
The atmosphere in the arena became tense again due to the strong intervention of Sword Douluo Chen Xin! However, this time, the balance of power had begun to tilt towards Tianxing Academy.
Just then, a clear and elegant voice rang out:
"What are you doing? My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is merely acting on the orders of Emperor Xueye to protect the safety of the participating students." Ning Fengzhi walked out carrying the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
At this moment, Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, was also by his side.
However, the latter's expression was rather unpleasant at the moment. Clearly, he had not expected Qianjun and Jiangmo to appear here at this time.
Upon seeing Ning Fengzhi's figure, Qianjun Douluo frowned slightly.
He naturally knew about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's support capabilities. At this moment, Sword Douluo Chen Xin was completely equivalent to two level 96 Title Douluos! If the fight continued...?
However, as an elder of the Spirit Hall, how could he possibly give up so easily? He was about to speak when he saw Xue Qinghe's lips move slightly.
Immediately, his expression changed again, and he said to Chrysanthemum Demon Douluo:
"Take your men and let's get out of here."
After saying that, the two of them flashed and disappeared into the spot as two streaks of light.
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were somewhat puzzled, but they simply exchanged a glance, nodded, and then vanished from their spot in a flash.
After the two titled Douluo, Yue Guan and Gui Mei, quietly disappeared, the men in black around them also retreated like a tide, taking their companions' corpses with them as they left.
They came fast and retreated even faster; in the blink of an eye, these men in black, who posed a deadly threat, had disappeared on both sides of the hill.
Just after the Spirit Hall members disappeared in a streak of light, a dark green figure rushed over from the other side of the valley. It was none other than Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.
At this moment, his hair was a little messy, and his robes were covered with dust, clearly indicating that he had just gone through a fierce battle.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Ning Fengzhi immediately stepped forward, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in his hand still shimmering with light, and gently apologized:
"Dean Dugu Bo, I apologize. I wanted to come and help you sooner, but I needed to protect His Highness the Crown Prince's safety, so I was a little late."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo stopped and glanced at Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe beside him. A knowing look flashed across his wrinkled face. He knew perfectly well that the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had been observing from the sidelines until the situation became clear before showing up.
But he still managed a smile and said in a hoarse voice:
"Sect Leader Ning, what are you saying? We are extremely grateful for your help. If you hadn't appeared in time, I doubt those people from the Spirit Hall would have retreated yet."
