Chapter 242 The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Market Value Plummets
"How is it? Can he be saved?"
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi, along with a group of elders, anxiously surrounded a group of healing soul masters, asking them questions.
"We're sorry, Sect Leader Ning, we've done our best."
The healing soul saint responded, his face pale.
It wasn't that they didn't try hard enough; it was just that the dark soul power, which was like a leech clinging to their bones, was too terrifying.
Their soul power will be corrupted and devoured as soon as it comes into contact with them.
Not only did it fail to provide any therapeutic effect, but they were also nearly corrupted by the dark soul power.
They truly had the will but lacked the ability.
"How could this happen!"
Ning Fengzhi took two steps back and almost fell to the ground. After barely supporting himself, he looked up at Chen Xin with bloodshot eyes.
Chen Xin was the last pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School after Gu Rong left.
This departure also took with them a Title Douluo and ten top-tier Soul Douluos.
In the end, only Chen Xin returned, severely wounded.
They had no idea what had happened or what had happened.
Even whether Chen Xin and the others had completed their mission was still unknown.
They didn't know whether the remaining people were alive or dead, but it was highly likely that they had been sacrificed.
After all, even Chen Xin—
"Sect Master Ning, judging from the current situation, if no one removes the dark soul power from Sword Douluo's body, conventional methods will be completely ineffective against him."
We have done our best, please accept our deepest condolences, Sect Leader Ning.
After bowing to Ning Fengzhi, the group of healing soul masters hurriedly ran away.
They were afraid of being left behind if they ran too slowly.
The news that Chen Xin, the pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, had been crippled would be a disaster for the school if it were to leak out.
If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is planning to kill them to silence them, wouldn't they all have to die here?
However, Ning Fengzhi was too preoccupied to care about anything else. He sat down by Chen Xin's bedside, looking at Chen Xin as if he were in a daze.
Chen Xin was his last trump card, but now that Chen Xin is gone, his backer is gone too.
So what say does he have left within the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?
Seeing Ning Fengzhi's distraught appearance, the Grand Elder nodded to the bodyguard beside him, indicating something.
His protector nodded, and the next second, he vanished and chased after the group of healing soul masters who had left.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin in silence, and finally raised his hand to reach for a token at Chen Xin's waist.
This is also a storage soul tool, the very one that Chen Xin used to store his soul bones.
Although Chen Xin returned severely injured from this trip, he managed to bring back the soul bone.
However, there is no hope for Chen Xin to wake up now. Although Ning Fengzhi was heartbroken, he still wanted to find out if Chen Xin had achieved his goal.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is now at a critical juncture of life and death.
Tang San is our only hope.
As long as Tang San can grow according to the path he envisioned, then they only need to hold on for one year, just one year!
So they didn't care about etiquette anymore.
Ning Fengzhi directly opened Chen Xin's storage soul tool.
The expression instantly eased as the mental energy quickly probed within.
"How's Fengzhi?"
The Grand Elder approached Ning Fengzhi and cautiously inquired.
"It's done, but there are only six pieces, and it's a set."
After a moment of silence, Ning Fengzhi spoke, concealing the news about the gemstone soul bone.
The elder frowned.
Given Chen Xin's strength, it's highly unlikely that he only obtained one set of soul bones from killing soul beasts.
Then there's only one possibility: the other soul bones are in the other eleven people.
Those eleven people have most likely already been killed.
Honestly, now that Chen Xin is crippled, the other Title Douluo is probably gone too. Right now, the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School only has one Title Douluo supporting him.
He could become the new sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School immediately if he so desired.
But he can't do that.
The current pillar supporting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is Chen Xin. If outsiders were to learn of Chen Xin's current situation, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would likely face a catastrophic crisis.
So even if it means offending people, he needs to kill those who know the truth.
And to ensure Ning Fengzhi's status, maintaining the illusion that Chen Xin still exists.
To put it bluntly, he can't support the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School right now, otherwise Ning Fengzhi would definitely be the first one he produces.
The Grand Elder glanced at the token in Ning Fengzhi's hand but made no attempt to examine it.
This is, after all, something of the heart, not of the spirit.
"Give the items to Tang San. The soul bone that His Majesty Chen Xin swore to return must be used for the right purpose."
I hope your guess comes true.
The Grand Elder looked into Ning Fengzhi's eyes and said.
He did indeed have ambitions for power, but he also did not want to destroy the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School because of his own power struggle.
"I will certainly live up to the Elder's trust."
Ning Fengzhi stood up and bowed deeply to the Grand Elder.
He has adjusted his perception of his own status quite well.
Knowing the extent to which his status would rise after he lost worldly desires.
"Now let's talk about Chenxin's problem."
What are you going to do?
The Grand Elder's attitude towards Chen Xin changed instantly after learning that he had been crippled.
Previously, the Sword Douluo Elder was returned to his name, but now he directly addresses him by his given name.
"Uncle Jian became like this because of the sect, so no matter how hard or tiring it is, we can't give up on him."
Even if Uncle Jian is now a cripple, we cannot abandon him.
Ning Fengzhi looked outside the door and said.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is a sect supported by outsiders.
If they were to abandon Chen Xin today simply because he's crippled, then there would be no point in the existence of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Outsiders won't entrust their hearts to someone who abandons them simply because they've lost their value.
Actually, they had another option: to ask the Nine Hearts Begonia Sect to treat Chen Xin.
However, the price they would have to pay would have been ridiculously high, and it would have exposed everything about them to the Nine Heart Begonia Sect.
And right now, the one who wants them dead the most is probably the Nine Heart Begonia Sect.
So the two of them tacitly avoided mentioning it.
"You're right, then I'll leave it to you to handle."
Furthermore, I hope to see results within a year.
The elder nodded and then turned to leave.
"Uncle Jian, I'm sorry!"
Ning Fengzhi looked at the sleeping Chen Xin with a complicated expression.
Because of his selfishness, Chenxin missed the only way to recover.
They thought they had kept it a secret well, and that by ruthlessly killing outsiders who knew about it, they could preserve the secret.
Unexpectedly, the news of Chen Xin's crippling spread the very next day.
Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's ungrateful acts and acts of violence behind the scenes were exposed.
In an instant, the Heavenly Dou Empire exploded as if water had been poured into a calm oil pan.
The entire empire is filled with scorn and denigration of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
In particular, those forces that had produced healing soul masters united to resist the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The market value of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has once again plummeted.
Ye Xinlan responded that she had to strike hard when the enemy was down, and thus regained a large share of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's market.
