Douluo: Wuhun Seven Killing Sword, Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven

Chapter 280: Snowfield Town, Encounter with Oscar and Chen Huayu
Since his stay in the sect was very short, Ning Tianchen did not waste any time.

At night, he first met Hong Kui.

From the other party, he learned that the mode of cooperation had been basically determined.

About half a year later, Qibao College will hold an enrollment, and Hong Xinyue will be able to enroll smoothly. In order to let her study without distraction, the Hong family decided to send another young talent to join Qibao College.

This person's purpose is not to come here to study, but to connect the two major forces.

The initial cooperation has been established. As for the specific details, Hong Kui said that an elder from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will meet with him tomorrow.

After the matter was settled, Ning Tianchen left the sect in secret and inspected the situation of the shadow guards in his fiefdom.

At present, Zhang Erhe has gone to Longxing City of the Xingluo Empire to investigate the situation of the Pozhi Clan.

The Shadow Guard is temporarily led by Zhao Wuji.

"Teacher Zhao, judging from your strength, you are about to break through to the Soul Douluo level, right?" Ning Tianchen asked with a smile.

Zhao Wuji bowed and responded, "Although we are not formal members of the sect, the treatment we receive from the sect is not bad. Over such a long period of time, thanks to the resources of the sect, I have improved very quickly."

In the original time and space, Shrek Academy received sponsorship from the Tiandou royal family and its life gradually became prosperous.

Zhao Wuji then had money to purchase resources for cultivation, and before the five-year agreement of the Shrek Seven Devils, he broke through to the Soul Douluo level.

Since he has such talent, Ning Tianchen certainly will not be stingy with resources.

"You have done well. When you need the eighth spirit ring, let Lao Zhang take you there."

After the pleasantries, they started discussing business.

Currently, the group that Shadow Guard has investigated the most thoroughly is the Li Clan in Tiandou City.

They found out that the Power Clan had contact with Tang Hao during the Soul Master Competition, and that the entire sect had a very good impression of the Haotian Sect. As long as there was a call, they would return to the Haotian Sect at any time.

"From now on, don't pay any attention to the Li clan." Ning Tianchen was not surprised.

Tai Tan was originally Tang Hao's servant, and now he is the patriarch of the Power Clan. Under his leadership, most of the people in the clan will definitely be close to the Haotian Sect. It is true that a dog will always eat shit.

"The Po Yi clan is very vigilant, and their clan leader has the lowest soul power level among the four clan leaders. But his strength even exceeds that of Titan. Otherwise, Old Zhang wouldn't have spent so much time."

Ning Tianchen said: "Later, you will sort out the situation and hand it over to me next time I come back. After this matter is done, you can start investigating Prince Xuexing. There is no time limit."

Dugu Bo always owes a favor to Prince Xuexing. If he doesn't repay this favor, Dugu Bo will always have a thorn in his heart.

Dugu Bo has done so much for him, so he should also do something for him.

……

The next day.

After Hong Kui finished communicating with the sect elders, Ning Tianchen and the others set out on their journey of training again.

Ning Fengzhi did not object to Ning Rongrong's trip, but gave her a mission.

During the Soul Master Competition, Tian Chao invited Ning Tianchen to be his guest.

Ning Rongrong and Ning Tianchen have a special relationship, so even if they go together, they will not be disliked by the Snow Mountain Sect.

Ning Rongrong came here as a representative of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to discuss cooperation with the Snow Mountain Sect.

Moreover, the Spirit Hall has little influence in the north of the Heaven Dou Empire, so there is no need to worry about the safety of the two.

Inside the carriage, Ning Rongrong held Ning Tianchen's arm and stared at Hong Xinyue.

A woman's sixth sense is very accurate. She saw Hong Xinyue's intention and declared her sovereignty in this way.

Ning Tianchen was talking with Hong Kui about the details of the cooperation and did not notice their performance.

After the conversation, Hong Kui couldn't help but sigh: "Xinyue has just broken through to level 40, I didn't expect that you and Miss Rongrong have broken through to Soul Emperor and Soul King."

The heritage of this big family is truly remarkable.

Ning Tianchen smiled back without explaining anything.

After a pause, he asked Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, has everyone left the sect?"

Ning Rongrong nodded.

Chen Huayu and Oscar have never returned since they left the sect last time.

Zhu Zhuqing, Yudie and Caidie came back twice. As for Feng Xiaotian, Ning Rongrong ran into him several times while shopping in the city.

Ning Rongrong's expression changed as she spoke, "I forgot to tell you that Huang Wu and Bao Zhen were in that mission."

After all, it had been some time since the two of them were injured; and Ning Rongrong was in a hurry to pack her luggage at the sect, so she didn't think of it at the first moment.

Ning Tianchen was shocked and quickly opened the car.

At this time, the carriage had already driven nearly a hundred miles into the sect’s headquarters, and it would take a long time to turn back.

It has been more than a month since Hong Xinyue broke through level 40, and there is no time to delay her obtaining the spirit ring.

After thinking for a while, Ning Tianchen closed the car curtain and said, "Forget it, I'll visit them next time I go back."

Hong Kui reminded, "Since Xinyue awakened her martial spirit, the Hong family has collected a lot of information about the Far North. It is said that there are many medicinal herbs on the ice field in the Far North that can regenerate severed limbs. Perhaps you will encounter them during your training."

"However, these herbs are not very good for treating eyes."

Ning Tianchen thanked him and said, "It's not easy to come across natural treasures. We will pay more attention to them during our training."

Huang Wu lost his right arm, and Ning Tianchen had two right arm soul bones.

Absorbing soul bones can allow the soul master to regrow arms, but Baozhen's eyes are troublesome after all.

Ning Tianchen asked, "Rongrong, where were they attacked?"

Ning Rongrong shook her head. "Dad gave them a gag order at the time. It must have been something serious. Otherwise, Dad wouldn't have taken it so seriously."

Ning Tianchen understood.

When he returns to the sect next time, he will personally ask Ning Fengzhi about the situation.

Huang Wu and Bao Zhen are his classmates and also members of the team. As the captain, he has the obligation to avenge his teammates.

Over the next month, the carriage continued to move north, and the weather became increasingly colder.

Ning Tianchen and the others put on thick coats, but Hong Xinyue, as an ice-attribute soul master, could keep out the cold with her daily attire.

The carriage drove into the Ice and Snow City, and everyone decided to rest there for one night.

At night, Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong sat in front of the fireplace to keep warm.

Ning Rongrong suddenly had an idea and asked, "Brother Tianchen, why is it that the weather gets colder the further north we go, and the hotter the further south we go?"

In Douluo Continent, apart from the Imperial Astronomical Observatory in the Imperial Palace, which observes celestial phenomena, other forces or individuals do not care about the changes in celestial phenomena at all.

What Ning Rongrong was asking about was something she had learned in her junior high school geography textbook in her previous life.

Ning Tianchen smiled and said, "You are not entirely right. If you keep walking south, you will find that the weather is getting colder. But you need to walk a long way."

Ning Rongrong pouted, "Brother Tianchen, you haven't answered Rongrong's question yet."

Ning Tianchen smiled and explained: "Did you notice when we entered the city that the sun at noon was not hanging above our heads, but in front of our sight, and we could see it just by looking up a little?"

Ning Rongrong asked back: "What does this matter?"

Ning Tianchen explained simply: "You can understand it as follows: when the sun is above our heads, it is closest to us, the light is sufficient, so the temperature is high. The sun in the north is relatively far away from us, so the temperature becomes lower."

Explaining this problem requires a lot of geographical knowledge. People on Douluo Continent don't understand that there is a ball under their feet. Instead of explaining it in detail, it is better to explain it in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

"Is that so?" Ning Rongrong nodded, not quite understanding.

Then, she asked back: "How did Brother Tianchen know that? You haven't touched the sun?"

Ning Tianchen explained: "I saw it in a book. Not only that, the stars in the north are also very bright."

As he spoke, he walked to the window and opened the curtains.

Looking up, the stars outside the window are unusually bright.

Ning Rongrong came to the window, her mouth wide open in surprise.

When she was in the sect, she had never seen such bright stars.

Of course, Tiandou City and Qibao Liuli Sect are illuminated by soul guide lamps at night. The light on the ground is too bright and blocks out the light of the stars.

The cities in the north are sparsely populated and relatively underdeveloped, so there is no light pollution.

Ning Tianchen put a coat on her and reminded her, "It's cold by the window, be careful not to catch a cold."

Ning Rongrong thanked him and stood by the window, watching for a long time.

Perhaps she had seen enough, so she closed the curtains and walked to the fireplace to warm herself. "It's really cold. By the way, Brother Tianchen, aren't we going to the Frozen Forest? How do we plan our schedule for tomorrow?"

Ning Tianchen took out a map and pointed, "Go out from the north gate of Ice and Snow City, about twenty miles away, you will reach the Snowfield Town, also called the Wasteland Town. This town is similar to the Soul Beast Town, and the town is connected to the Frozen Forest."

On that day, Tian Chao gave him a token and asked him to look for the other party in the town in the wasteland (snowfield).

He didn't know whether he could find anyone from the Snow Mountain Sect, so he could only try his luck.

……

At dawn the next day, Ning Tianchen and others set off again in a carriage.

The cold-resistant BMWs provided by the Hong family have very good physiques. They have not had any difficulty adapting to this bitterly cold place, and their strength and endurance have not decreased at all.

Snowfield Town. After parking the carriage at the hotel, everyone started to inquire about the situation in the town.

Before leaving, Ning Tianchen took out several pairs of sunglasses from his soul guide and distributed them to everyone.

"Don't look directly at Shirayuki, it would be better if you wear glasses."

The purpose of coming here is to inquire about the traces of soul beasts suitable for Hong Xinyue. Later, everyone will enter the frozen forest.

Compared to the entire Arctic ice field, the frozen forest is only a very small part of the periphery.

It was the first time that Ning Rongrong had seen such heavy snow. She picked up a piece of snow from the roadside, rolled it into an ice ball in her hand, and threw it at Ning Tianchen.

"Rongrong, you are an auxiliary soul master, you can't catch the snowballs I throw." Ning Tianchen smiled bitterly.

Ning Rongrong made a face and picked up another snowball and threw it at him.

Ning Tianchen didn't dodge either, but stood there and let her hit him.

Little did they know that this action would not seem like the right thing to do in the eyes of someone with ulterior motives.

A group of idle men gradually noticed them.

"Boss, that little girl is still interested in playing snowballs here. That boy is not very old either, but they are dressed well. They are probably children of wealthy families. Do you want to join them?"

As he said this, the man made a gesture of wiping his neck.

The leading man smiled and said, "Don't be anxious. Let's see if there is anyone behind them. Damn it, if we don't do something big, we will all freeze to death when winter comes."

Among food, clothing, housing and transportation, why does clothing come first?
In addition to providing cover, clothes can also keep you warm and even protect you from some diseases.

Winter in the north is no joke. Without clothes and a sturdy, warm house, you can really freeze to death.

……

After wandering around the town, Ning Tianchen still couldn't find any trace of the Snow Mountain Sect's disciples.

It wasn't long before he noticed that a group of people were following them.

Ning Rongrong dropped the snowball in her hand, rubbed her hands and said, "Brother Tianchen, haven't you found the person yet?"

Ning Tianchen shook his head. "The Snow Mountain Sect's training in the Far North should be periodic. When they didn't plan to explore the Far North, it is estimated that only a small number of people stayed in the town."

Winter is coming soon, and it is not wise to explore the Far North at this time.

Soon, Hong Kui and Hong Xinyue found them.

"How is it? Did you find out?" Ning Tianchen asked.

Hong Kui nodded, but hesitated for a moment before saying, "There is a soul hunting team that knows where the soul beast is, but their requirement is that they must be entrusted to help hunt the soul."

Getting lost in the frozen forest is no joke. The cold weather at night is enough to freeze people to death.

"Do you have any ideas?" Ning Tianchen asked.

"Dad, let's find a soul hunting team." Hong Xinyue said, "Although we have received a lot of information about the Far North, we haven't experienced it ourselves, so we can't completely believe it. Finding a soul hunting team will give us some peace of mind."

This is not what Hong Kui is worried about.

He was afraid that the soul hunting team would rob him during the hunting process.

If they really took action in the forest, they would still get lost.

Ning Tianchen suggested: "Master Hong, I can sense any subtle murderous intent. Let's go meet the Soul Hunting Team first and see how they perform."

There is indeed a phenomenon of black-eating black in the Soul Hunting Team, but it does not mean that everyone will do so. There are also many Soul Hunting teams with clean backgrounds.

……

Soon, Hong Kui brought Ning Tianchen to find the other party.

The group of people who were originally following them spontaneously retreated a distance when they saw Hong Kui, but they did not give up on them.

Ning Tianchen sneered in his heart, "Your murderous aura is almost overflowing, are you worried that I will discover you?"

For the time being, he had no intention of causing trouble for this group of people. He would first help Hong Xinyue complete the soul hunting.

The soul hunting team that Hong Kui found was a seven-member team.

The team leader is a middle-aged man. Judging from his aura, he has the strength of a Soul Saint.

Ning Tianchen was confused.

Do soul-hunting teams at the Soul Saint level still need to take the initiative to accept orders?

There must be a lot of people looking for such a strong person.

If there was no murderous aura on the other side, he would even suspect that they were a group of people who killed and robbed people.

"One thousand gold soul coins, have you thought about it? Winter is coming soon. If you are late, there will be no team to take you into the forest."

The captain added, "This is our last order before winter. Just follow our team and don't worry."

The price is reasonable.

There is no chance of any accidents happening when the Soul Hunting Team, led by the Soul Saint, is hunting the fourth soul ring.

Ning Tianchen whispered to Hong Kui, "You can agree to it."

Hong Kui nodded and readily paid one thousand gold soul coins.

As the Soul Hunting Team was packing up, Ning Rongrong pointed at two of them and asked, "Brother Tianchen, do you think he looks like Fatty Chen?"

Ning Tianchen nodded and pointed at another person, "Do you think he looks like Xiao Ao?"

Ning Rongrong covered her mouth and said in surprise, "No way, I heard they went to the north for training, could it really be them?"

Ning Tianchen laughed and said loudly: "Chen Huayu, Oscar."

Yes or no, you will know once you try it.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, two people in the Soul Hunting Team immediately raised their heads and looked around.

Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong were wrapped tightly to keep out the cold, so they didn't recognize him at first.

"Fatty, I seemed to have heard Tianchen's voice just now." Oscar said uncertainly.

Chen Huayu nodded and pointed forward, "I heard it too. Look, do those two people look like the eldest brother and the eldest daughter?"

Oscar said: "The figure is somewhat similar, but it is covered too tightly, so it is hard to recognize."

"They are coming over. Let's ask them later."

Seeing that the two were still looking around, Ning Tianchen walked up and kicked Chen Huayu.

"Fatty, it's been such a long time since we last met, and you don't recognize me?" Ning Tianchen scolded with a smile.

Chen Huayu covered his buttocks and said happily, "Boss, is it really you? Why did you and Miss Rongrong come to the Far North? Are you going to hunt souls?"

Oscar said unhappily, “Tianchen and Rongrong had already broken through to the Soul Sect. What we helped to hunt was the fourth soul ring, which is definitely not the soul ring they need.”

"Do you know each other?" Hearing the noise, the team leader came over.

After Oscar's explanation, the captain laughed and said, "Haha, so you are Xiao Ao and Hua Yu's friends. Let me introduce myself, my name is Hao Te. The cost of this soul hunting is waived, we are all friends."

Northerners are generous in nature and have always welcomed their friends with delicious food and fine wine.

Hong Kui wanted to refuse, but the other party insisted on returning the money, so he said, "How about this, I will treat everyone to a meal when I come back to show my gratitude."

Hao Te and others accepted it with pleasure.

Ning Tianchen was a little nervous.

Hao Te and his men were not on good terms with each other. If something went wrong, it would be troublesome.

You know, when the soul bone of Oscar's sixth soul ring exploded, this group of people came to snatch it immediately.

Ning Tianchen didn't expect that fate was so mysterious.

Oscar's life course has changed greatly compared to the original time and space, but he still gets to know Hot and others.

"Boss, do you know about Huang Wu and Bao Zhen?"

Ning Tianchen said: "I only stayed in the sect for one day, and I left in a hurry. I didn't have time to ask about the situation. I'll ask next time I go back. By the way, you two are doing well. You actually joined the Soul Sage's Soul Hunting Team."

……

After everything was ready, the group marched into the forest in a mighty procession.

In the small town, the group of people who had followed Ning Tianchen earlier had no choice but to stop.

"Damn it, they actually hired the Hot Team."

In the forest, the Soul Hunting Team has an obligation to ensure the safety of their employer.

The Hot Squad has an excellent reputation and there has never been a precedent of an employer dying.

This group of people are no match for Hao Te, and going to rob them would be tantamount to seeking death.

"Boss, what should I do?"

The leading burly man cursed: "I'm going to fuck your mother."
