Bibi Dong paused for a moment, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.
Those present were all elders of the Spirit Hall, holding high positions and wielding great power.
Having spent so long navigating the power dynamics, they knew this was a major taboo for a subordinate.
As expected, Qian Daoliu remained silent for a moment before asking, "The third request!"
Tuoba Yan said, "As for my third request, I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I do."
"No way!" Second Elder Golden Crocodile Douluo flatly refused. "This is tantamount to asking for an imperial edict that's completely blank, just stamped. What's written on it is entirely up to you. How can this be acceptable?"
At the council of elders, the elders all joined in the commotion and rejected Tuoba Yan's request.
Tuoba Yan added, "Of course, I will not allow the Elders' Council to do anything that violates the law, morality, or your bottom line. My third requirement is that it must be legal and compliant!"
"No, absolutely not!" Golden Crocodile Douluo's attitude was resolute. He still refused to agree to Tuoba Yan's three demands.
Bibi Dong, who seemed to thrive on chaos, said, "I think it's worth considering!"
Bibi Dong was overjoyed.
This is exactly the effect she wanted.
If the Spirit Hall remains in chaos, how can she realize her desires?
Without any hesitation, the Second Elder refused outright, "No. Bibi Dong, I support you on everything else, but not on this. It's too frivolous."
Bibi Dong, unusually, helped Tuoba Yan, advising, "If the Soul Hunting Operation succeeds, it will solidify the Spirit Hall's dominant position in the Soul Master world. Second Elder, please reconsider."
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were stunned.
They secretly admired Pope Bibi Dong.
Tuoba Yan had already "snatched" Xiao Wu from Bibi Dong, but Bibi Dong acted as if nothing had happened and spoke up for Tuoba Yan.
Selfless and impartial.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo secretly praised Bibi Dong, saying that this was the epitome of selflessness.
Just as the Second Elder was about to speak and refuse Tuoba Yan's harsh demands, the voice of the First Elder, Qian Daoliu, rang out.
"I won't help you at all!"
"OK."
"You cannot use a single soldier other than the Kaituoba family!"
"OK."
"Operation Soul Hunt must be completed!"
"Any other requests?" Tuoba Yan agreed to all of the Grand Elder's requests.
Grand Elder Qian Daoliu said, "In that case, I, on behalf of the Spirit Hall, have reached an agreement with you. Tuoba Yan, I will await your triumphant return in Spirit City."
Anyone with eyes to see could see that Qian Daoliu was intentionally weakening the power of Tuoba Yan and the Tuoba family.
Tuoba Xi is already a Title Douluo, and Tuoba Yan will definitely become a Title Douluo in the future.
The presence of two Douluo from one family poses a threat to the Qian family's rule.
Therefore, Qian Daoliu readily agreed to Tuoba Yan's demanding request, but also stipulated that he would not provide Tuoba Yan with a single soldier, thus depleting the Tuoba family's soul masters.
Neither the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect nor the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School are pushovers.
They are the three upper sects.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, in particular, boasts over five thousand Soul Masters, making it virtually a miniature Spirit Hall.
No matter how strong Tuoba Yan is, he is still just one person.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has the number one support-type Soul Master, Sword Douluo Chen Xin, who has inherited his father's true skills. With Ning Fengzhi's assistance, his combat power is even higher than that of Golden Crocodile Douluo.
Is the Bone Douluo Gu Rong a vegetarian?
Then there's the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, whose Thunder Douluo's combat power shouldn't be underestimated. Rumor has it that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan possesses an ancestral secret technique that can temporarily increase a person's combat strength.
If Tuoba Yan is careless, the Tuoba family may be ruined. Even if he is extremely careful, if he kills a thousand enemies but loses eight hundred of his own, the Tuoba family will definitely suffer a great loss.
Is this the end of the story?
Of course, that's not all.
If the Soul Hunt fails, it will be difficult for the Tuoba family to regain its current status in the Spirit Hall within a hundred years.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The sect's location was established thirty miles away from the Tiandou Empire.
It is said to be a castle, and it calls itself the Seven Treasures Glass Castle, but in reality it is no different from a fortress.
Look at those high city walls. And that castle, built according to the terrain, encircling several mountains—is it still a castle?
Inside the forest, two Soul Masters are on patrol.
"Xiao Yi, do you feel cold?"
"No!"
"That's strange, we Soul Masters rarely catch colds. Why do I suddenly feel so cold!"
"Could it be that he's been going to Xiaohong's place too much?"
"Nonsense. I've only been there ten times this month, fewer than usual. In any case, we should remain vigilant and be careful. That young master of the Tuoba family is a madman, even madder than Tang Hao. The sect leader said he might attack our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Fortress at any time!"
"Tch, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Fortress is teeming with experts, and it's located near the capital. Even if he had ten lives, he wouldn't dare come to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Fortress!"
"Ugh, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to take a dump."
A man who called someone "Xiao Yi" turned and went into the bushes to relieve himself.
Suddenly, Xiao Yi felt a chill behind him. He turned around and saw a figure.
"who?"
"I am the madman you said dared not come to Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
A cold glint flashed in the darkness, and Xiao Yi felt a sweet taste in his throat as blood gushed out. He opened his mouth as if to make a sound, but nothing came out.
At the same time, Tuoba Xi emerged from the woods.
"Yan'er, he solved it! He almost got my clothes dirty!"
Emerging from the darkness was a sprightly old man with white hair and beard, and a ruddy complexion. He was broad-shouldered and burly, none other than the Holy Dragon Douluo Tuoba Xi.
Tuoba Yan asked, "Have the clansmen been settled?"
"I have obeyed your orders. Tonight, we will launch an attack on all the shops of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and deploy our main forces along the four main routes outwards. Once the attack is complete, no one from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will be able to escape the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Fortress!"
"All the shops of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect belong to our family; do not hand them over to the Spirit Hall!"
Is this appropriate?
"Perfect. As long as our family has a big appetite, we can handle it. Qian Daoliu thinks he's clever by not giving me a single soldier, which just goes to our family's advantage. All the people going into battle this time are from our family, and have nothing to do with the Spirit Hall. Public opinion will be on our side!"
"good."
Tuoba Xi's eyes were filled with excitement.
You should know that the most valuable thing in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is wealth.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has accumulated wealth over hundreds of years, including all the shops under its umbrella. If the Tuoba family were to acquire the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's wealth, they would become the richest family in the Soul Master world.
Tuoba Yan said, "We must take advantage of this opportunity to elevate our family's foundation to a level that makes us feared by all other families."
Tuoba Xi nodded.
The schemes of the elders, devised by Qian Daoliu, could not satisfy the worldly-wise Tuoba Xi.
Tuoba Xi could tell that Qian Daoliu was wary of the Tuoba family and wanted to weaken the power of the affiliated families that depended on the Qian family, just like in history, in order to balance the various families and maintain the Qian family's rule.
