Chapter 480.

Tang San thought for a moment and said to Wang Feng, "Brother Feng, now that we are part of the Tang Sect, I want to win over a few other sects."

"What sects?" Wang Feng asked.

"Remember Tai Tan?" Tang San paused and continued, "He used to be one of my father's followers. One of the four great clans that once followed the Clear Sky Sect. I want to bring them under our banner first."

Wang Feng was briefly stunned, then recalled that in the original story, the Clear Sky Sect did have several subordinate clans.

He clearly remembered Tai Tan's background.

Besides the Strength Clan, there were also the Speed Clan, Defense Clan, and the Breaking Clan.

Wang Feng also recalled that in the original story, Ma Hongjun's partner was from the Speed Clan.

"Alright, but you'll have to do this yourself," Wang Feng said. "These four clans have ties to your father and the Clear Sky Sect, so it's only right that you reach out to them. As the Grand Elder, well… I won't interfere."

Wang Feng wasn't particularly interested in those four clans.

In contrast, the other four major sects were far more powerful. Even the smallest one—the Healing Spirit Sect—had hundreds of soul masters, all skilled in healing.

The strongest among them, the Battle Luo Sect, while not quite at the level of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, wasn't far behind.

Then there was the Tool Spirit Sect, which was also formidable. And the Elephant Armor Sect, renowned for its unmatched defense, was extremely powerful as well.

However, these four clans now believed Wang Feng was dead. He'd have to find the right time to visit them.

"Of course," Tang San nodded firmly.

The two talked for a while about the future of the Tang Sect.

With Wang Feng's earlier suggestions, Tang San seemed quite intrigued by the idea of unifying the continent—but that wasn't really who he was.

Still, he agreed with Wang Feng's vision.

That alone made Wang Feng feel satisfied.

"By the way, Brother Feng, why didn't you use your fifth and sixth soul abilities earlier?" Tang San suddenly asked.

"There are some limitations," Wang Feng explained. "To be precise, those abilities aren't stable yet. Those two forms haven't fully manifested. They're special, and I probably won't be able to use them until I reach a higher level—at least level seventy."

He was referring to the Innate Five Flags. The remaining two wouldn't fully appear until he reached level sixty-nine, at which point their associated soul abilities would also be revealed. He wasn't lying—at least not completely.

"I see," Tang San nodded.

Brother Feng's martial soul had always been special, even the teacher couldn't figure it out.

After their discussion, Tang San left.

He needed to begin looking into the matter of recruiting the clans.

Wang Feng had no plans to accompany him. If Xiao San didn't even have the ability to manage this much while trying to establish the Tang Sect, he might as well give up now. As the Grand Elder, Wang Feng was already dealing with people at the level of Titled Douluo. Everyone else could step aside—he wasn't interested.

Besides, letting Tang San win over the four clans on his own would help build his reputation.

"Wang Feng, if you didn't pick the first option, are you planning to tell my father about me or not?"

After everyone else left, Ning Rongrong stared at Wang Feng. "Even though your words were very touching, I'm not stupid!"

Ning Rongrong wasn't stupid—but she had been touched by his words.

Still, when she thought about it more, it was obvious that Wang Feng just didn't want to start a relationship. That's why he said what he said.

She looked at Wang Feng, waiting for an answer.

"Then which one would you want me to choose?" Wang Feng asked in return.

Ning Rongrong was momentarily stunned. After thinking for a while, she finally said:

"The first one because you were right. I'm not just a commodity in some transaction of support…"

"That's it?"

"..."

"Alright then, go on back," Wang Feng said softly.

Then he looked into her eyes and gently brushed her hair.

"–Okay!"

Ning Rongrong was caught off guard by Wang Feng's gaze. Her cheeks turned red and she walked away obediently. Halfway back, she suddenly realized something. She turned around—only to find Wang Feng had already disappeared.

Ning Rongrong: "..."

She stomped her foot in frustration and stormed off.

Meanwhile, Wang Feng, already gone, let out a quiet sigh of relief.

'My eyes still have their charm,' he thought to himself.

"Using the Red Lotus Karmic Fire to refine it wasn't for nothing!"

Wang Feng shook his head and muttered, "Rongrong, that impatient girl! Is she really that greedy for my body? Seriously!"

Not wanting to overthink it, Wang Feng shifted his focus to what he should do with the remaining time.

Qian Renxue had now become the next emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire. Judging from the current situation, that outcome seemed hard to change.

Which meant the power of the Soul Hall would expand even further. But how could it be stopped?

Expose her?

Impossible. Wang Feng had interacted with her before—this girl was special, smart, and definitely not someone who would be easily exposed.

If exposing her wasn't an option, then what could be done?

Bibi Dong had sent him to Heaven Dou City to secretly assist Qian Renxue. Could there be another reason behind it?

A sudden thought struck Wang Feng.

Qian Renxue was aligned with the Elder Hall and Qian Daoliu.

Could it be that Bibi Dong wanted him to become the one who influences Qian Renxue to eventually serve the Supreme Pontiff Palace?

Wang Feng had known that from the original work. These two characters were very popular on fan forums. Although he hadn't seen the full storyline, his curiosity had led him to read detailed summaries and encyclopedia entries—and he discovered –a tragic, twisted backstory.

Could it be that Bibi Dong doesn't want me to abduct her daughter in name but to win her over so that she listens to Bibi Dong completely?

Wang Feng couldn't help but have that thought.

And the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

Even if Qian Renxue controlled the Heaven Dou Empire, she would never obey Bibi Dong. If Qian Daoliu ordered her to do something, she would definitely prioritize his instructions.

But Bibi Dong feared Qian Daoliu deeply.

With that in mind, Wang Feng finally pieced it together.

Bibi Dong's true intention in sending him to assist Qian Renxue might very well be just that…

"This Bibi Dong really plans to use her own daughter like a chess piece…"

Wang Feng shook his head. "No wonder Qian Renxue was sent as an undercover agent when she was still so young… how pitiful."

Another thought crossed Wang Feng's mind.

That was the fact that Xue Qinghe—Qian Renxue in disguise—knew that Wang Feng had seen through her identity.

Back when Qian Daoliu had tried to kill him, she had –saved him while dressed as a woman.

She had even said, to his face, that she owed him a debt for saving her life!

That alone had exposed her identity. Although she had disguised her face at the time, Wang Feng could easily connect the dots. After all, Qian Renxue had already seen him as Feng Yuxiu in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Thinking about it now, Wang Feng frowned slightly.

He found himself becoming more and more intrigued by Qian Renxue.

A few days later…

Sure enough, Xue Qinghe came to visit, looking incredibly sincere.

He hadn't seen her in a while, and yet Xue Qinghe remained elegant and striking as ever.

And just like before, she was accompanied by Silk Rong.
