Facing Tianlin's question, Ning Fengzhi's answer was unexpected, "I don't know. I'm just deducing some low-probability possibilities based on the recent changes in Heaven Dou City, thinking we must guard against them!"
This was the first time he had answered so uncertainly, indicating that he was simply being extra cautious with his deductions this time.
Following Ning Fengzhi's instructions, Tianlin ordered all the Spirit Hall Black Robed People to change into sect disciple clothing before heading down the mountain towards Heaven Dou City.
At the same time, Xiao Yi pulled open a small bamboo tube in his hand, and with a piercing screech, a beam of red light shot into the sky, instantly exploding into a dazzling firework.
This was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's signal for help, completely different from the Bursting Fire that Qin Ming had just used for warning. Xiao Yi released it at this time for two purposes: one was to interfere with the enemy, Ning Fengzhi's so-called backup plan.
The other was to notify Ning Rongrong and the others down the mountain. Before their action, Ning Fengzhi had told them that once they saw this signal for help, it meant that all threats within the sect had been eliminated, and they should return immediately.
"Great, Dad and Brother Sword have won!" Ning Rongrong said excitedly.
"Needless to say, with Boss around, enemies like that will die no matter how many come," Gu Ran had always blindly trusted Tianlin and never doubted him.
The group went up the mountain from the Back Mountain, also bringing out the villagers who had been settled in the secret passage in the Back Mountain.
At this time, most of the experts within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect were sitting cross-legged, recovering their soul power. According to Ning Fengzhi, tonight's crisis was only seventy percent over, and they still needed to be wary of the remaining thirty percent.
In fact, Ning Fengzhi's worries were completely correct. Besides Ning Rongrong and her group, there was also an army of ten thousand people less than ten miles away from Seven Treasure Mountain who saw the signal for help.
The three people at the head, besides a black-robed man whose figure could not be seen clearly, were Xue Beng and Tang San. However, their states seemed somewhat off, with black gas surrounding their eyes, very different from their usual selves. Looking at the fire in the sky, Xue Beng said, "This is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's signal for help. They must have suffered heavy losses. Pass down the order, the army sets out!"
This Heaven Dou Empire army that had appeared out of nowhere was the foundation that Prince Xue Xing had painstakingly gathered some generals for and left to Xue Beng, but now it was being used by Xue Beng to deal with his own people. They marched towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to reap the rewards.
Before long, they encountered a group of people fleeing down the mountain, dressed in Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciple clothing, looking very disheveled. They were the Spirit Hall people who had been controlled by Tianlin using Mind Control.
"It's Prince Xue Beng."
"Your Highness, please send troops to save my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! A group of Black Robed People suddenly attacked our sect, and our sect suffered heavy casualties. Sword Elder, Poison Elder, and Thunder Eagle Elder, the three Titled Douluo, have all died in battle, and Bone Elder is still fighting desperately alongside the Sect Master."
When this group of people saw Xue Beng, they knelt on the ground excitedly and begged. These were all the words that Ning Fengzhi had told them to say.
Hearing this, Xue Beng laughed coldly, "Is that so? Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo are not dead yet? What a pity."
"Your Highness, what do you mean by that?" The controlled Spirit Hall people all showed puzzled expressions.
"What I mean is this, Tang San, kill!" Xue Beng gave an order.
"Yes, Your Highness, Third Spirit Ability, Blue Silver Strangulation!" Tang San acted decisively. Although his Blue Silver Grass had not awakened into the Blue Silver Emperor, it was very different from before.
The Vines made of Blue Silver Grass were pitch black, covered with a strong evil aura. This was Dark Blue Silver Grass.
In an instant, these people from Spirit Hall were all strangled by Tang San, without any ability to fight back.
Xue Beng ordered the soldiers to take the corpses, and the army continued to march towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
At this time, Ning Rongrong and the others had already returned to the sect ahead of them. They were worried about their families, so they walked very fast. With the foot strength of Soul Master, it didn't take long to go up the mountain.
"Is this, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Ning Rongrong looked at her home in disbelief. The once extremely prosperous Seven Treasure City now seemed to have experienced a magnitude ten earthquake, plus the devastating blow of heavenly thunder and earthly fire.
The ground was cracked, the houses were collapsed, and flames were burning everywhere. The sect disciples who were not injured were trying to put out the fires everywhere, the slightly injured were collecting the corpses of the dead, and the seriously injured had been carried down to rest.
"Spirit Hall, these bastards, one day I, Gu Ran, will repay this revenge tenfold." Gu Ran clenched his fists, furious.
"Alright, Gu Ran, don't be too angry. It's just the buildings that have been damaged. In fact, our casualties are not large. With Sister Lingling's mother helping to heal, everyone is fine." Tianlin walked over and comforted them, "As long as everyone is still alive, the sect can be rebuilt no matter how many times it is destroyed."
Ning Rongrong wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Brother Sword is right, as long as everyone is alive, no matter how big the matter is, it can't defeat us. We will rebuild a more luxurious Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect here."
"Alright, Rongrong, now you must shoulder the responsibility of succeeding as Sect Master. Lead everyone here to reorganize the sect and rescue the injured disciples. Uncle Sword, Golden Crocodile Douluo still needs you to watch over him. Uncle Dugu, guard the sect. Uncle Eagle, patrol the Back Mountain, don't let anyone take the opportunity to launch another sneak attack from behind. Uncle Bone and the remaining Soul Emperors and above who are not injured, come with me down the mountain to await our next batch of guests," Ning Fengzhi solemnly ordered.
At this time, there were really not many people in the sect who could maintain combat power. There were less than a hundred Soul Emperors and above who were not injured, but that was enough. The next batch of opponents was far from being as strong as the group just now, after all, they were just here to reap the rewards.
Ning Rongrong heard this and knew that things were not over yet. Although she was worried about Tianlin, she also knew that now was not the time for her to be willful. She immediately organized the sect disciples and began to clean up the mess.
Gu Ran followed Tianlin down the mountain. He had broken through to Soul Emperor and was not injured, which happened to meet the standard Ning Fengzhi said, so he would naturally not let go of this opportunity to fight alongside his boss.
Finally, a group of less than a hundred people met Xue Beng's army of ten thousand head-on.
"I've seen this scene before!" Tianlin was surprised in his heart.
The three people at the head, a black-robed man whose identity was unknown, Prince Xue Beng, plus Tang San, were exactly the scene Tianlin saw when he used Predict Future to detect Tang San.
The things seen by Predict Future must be related to him. Although he didn't scan his own image at the time, he now understood why this Spirit Ability was passively released to warn him. It turned out that this was the scene of them joining forces to attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Xue Beng also saw Ning Fengzhi, and sure enough, only Gu Rong was by his side, and they both looked extremely exhausted. They probably exhausted all their strength to barely kill their way out with so few people.
"Sect Master Ning, where are you going? So travel-worn," Xue Beng said with a mocking smile.
"Prince Xue Beng, I should be asking you this. You brought a large army here, could it be that you saw my sect's distress signal and came to rescue us?" Ning Fengzhi didn't panic at all.
If this scene was seen by Tianlin through the Spirit Ability Predict Future, then Ning Fengzhi deduced it through the Imperial Palace intelligence collected by Yin Yang during this period, plus his own wisdom.
For some reason, he actually suspected that Xue Beng was related to Spirit Hall. Tianlin had asked him what the probability of this judgment was, and whether it was worth being so vigilant.
Ning Fengzhi's answer was less than 30%. This was a judgment made considering Xue Beng's identity, who should not be associated with Spirit Hall in any way. Otherwise, the probability would be even higher.
However, for Ning Fengzhi, 30% and 100% were actually no different. As long as it reached more than 20%, he would not be careless.
Judging from the current results, it is no longer important whether Xue Beng is related to Spirit Hall. In short, Ning Fengzhi's vigilance against him was completely correct.
