Chapter 202 Qin Mu's Unexpected Status After the War!
The four titled Douluos bowed to Qin Mu and left one by one. Not only did Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo not even give Ling Yuan a second glance.
As the last Title Douluo departed, he didn't forget to throw a beam of red light into the sky, and then the four of them disappeared.
A red light exploded in the sky, and upon seeing the red light, the originally aggressive invaders retreated as quickly as the tide receded.
Apart from a very small number of people who knew the truth, the vast majority of people were completely baffled by this extreme practice.
Just a moment ago they seemed determined to destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so why did they suddenly run away?
Although they were confused about the situation, most of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, nobody likes war.
If the other side doesn't back down and continues fighting them directly, I believe that no more than one-tenth of them will survive to the end.
For a moment, these disciples who had survived the ordeal felt a sense of relief.
A very small number of people even felt that they had won a great victory and were celebrating.
Even Qin Mu was somewhat taken aback by the fact that these four Title Douluos left so decisively.
He originally thought that even if he intervened, it would be a tough battle before he could finally persuade them to back down.
Unexpectedly, the other party recognized Qin Mu's identity immediately and chose to retreat.
Although things were different from what was expected, they were fortunately moving in a positive direction, which made Qin Mu happy to have some free time.
However, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo who had been silently watching from behind did not think so.
The two looked at each other, and both could see the shock in each other's eyes.
They were merely guardians of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so naturally they were unaware of Qin Mu's influence within the Spirit Hall.
To be able to make the other party retreat immediately simply by speaking a few words is a feat that is not something an ordinary person can accomplish.
It seems that Qin Mu's status in the Spirit Hall is even higher than they imagined.
As for the suspicion that Qin Mu may have orchestrated the whole thing.
The moment the idea crossed their minds, they immediately dismissed it.
Sword Douluo, in particular, who was skilled in the unity of man and sword, could sense that Qin Mu's spirit also experienced a slight fluctuation when the other party chose to leave.
Such fluctuations usually occur because things have gone beyond one's expectations, or due to other influences.
If it was pre-arranged by them, with Qin Mu's spiritual strength, he could definitely make sure that Sword Douluo wouldn't be able to sense it by deliberately influencing him.
In other words, it was precisely because Qin Mu was unaware of the other party's reaction beforehand that he was surprised when the other party chose to leave so directly, and his mind was thus disturbed.
"This discovery must be reported to the Sect Master!"
The two, Sword and Bone, exchanged another glance. The tacit understanding they had developed over the years allowed them to understand each other's thoughts with just a look.
"I never imagined that young friend Qin Mu would have such influence within the Spirit Hall. I am truly impressed!"
"Heroes have always emerged from among the young. I never expected that young friend Qin Mu would hold such a high position and have such strength at such a young age. In comparison, the two of us seem old."
With the matter resolved, Qin Mu had rescued the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect from dire straits, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo naturally had to step forward to offer their compliments.
"Please don't make fun of me, elders. You two are still vigorous despite your age. The world of soul masters is still in your era."
"However, what happened just now was somewhat unexpected for me as well."
"Otherwise, I would have intervened long ago to mediate between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the other side, thus preventing such casualties from befalling your sect..."
Qin Mu returned the greeting to Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo with a wry smile.
He really hadn't expected the situation to change like this, so his words carried a hint of apology.
After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suffered real losses, and if he didn't pay attention to his words, it would inevitably cause people to harbor resentment.
Some alternative ideas may even emerge.
"Natural disasters and man-made calamities are unavoidable and have nothing to do with young friend Qin Mu."
"On the contrary, if it weren't for young friend Qin Mu's timely intervention, I'm afraid this old body of mine would have come to its end here."
Sword Douluo responded to Qin Mu with a wry smile. Both sides were being polite in their conversation, which made things a little awkward for both of them.
"Young friend Qin Mu, the great battle has just ended, and an unexpected incident has occurred on the Sect Master's side. There are many complicated matters that still need to be dealt with. Please forgive us for not being able to accompany you for a while."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo bowed to Qin Mu again, and only after Qin Mu nodded did they leave with peace of mind.
"Oh, I didn't expect these two old guys to be so wary of you now!"
As veterans in the Soul Master world, Ling Yuan naturally knew the temperaments of these two.
There are probably fewer than five people on the entire continent who could elicit such an attitude from these two.
But Qin Mu, who is only in his early twenties, already has such qualifications. If this gets out, it will probably shock many people.
"What surprised me even more was that they ran away as soon as they recognized me. I thought I was going to have to fight for a while."
Ling Yuan chuckled at this.
"There's nothing we can do. You've been gaining more and more popularity in the Spirit Hall lately. I'm afraid quite a few elders in the Spirit Hall would be willing to let you replace Pope Bibi Dong."
Qin Mu didn't seem to care much about Ling Yuan's words.
Ling Yuan is, after all, a political idiot whose mind is only focused on fighting. If you really trust her judgment, then you're really stuck with her for life.
"By the way, about the identities of those four Title Douluos..."
Ling Yuan wasn't sure if Qin Mu really knew, so she asked again.
"It's alright, I have my own plans. Let's go back first, and while we're at it, let's also check on the situation at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
After saying that, Qin Mu immediately set off, heading towards the city wall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
At this time, within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, under the organization of Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Ning Rongrong, most people already knew the work they were going to do.
Figures moved in and out of the city gate in an orderly fashion. The bodies of some of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's fallen disciples were also sent back to the castle one by one, awaiting burial.
A relatively spacious tent was erected at the foot of the city wall. At this time, the tent was surrounded by powerful Soul Masters, and only a very few people were qualified to enter it.
Even when Qin Mu and Ling Yuan tried to enter, they were stopped by the guards at the entrance.
With Sword Douluo's permission, Qin Mu and Ling Yuan entered the tent.
There were only a few figures in the tent. Besides Ning Fengzhi lying on the bed, there were Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, Ning Rongrong, as well as two or three familiar elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Young friend Qin Mu, thank you very much for your help this time!"
