Qiangugu Dongfeng's gaze unconsciously glanced at Leng Yaozhu beside him, and upon seeing her expressionless face, he seemed to know that she was inextricably linked to the matter!
He then turned his attention back to the thirty-six Council Members below and calmly said, "Every Artificial Spirit Soul created by our Spirit Pagoda is meticulously recorded, so, everyone must be mistaken, the Artificial Soul Spirits have always been kept within the Spirit Pagoda!"
This insincere statement brought a look of disappointment to the faces of the Council Members below…
They had never imagined that the Pagoda Master they had always respected could tell such blatant lies!
They were not fools! Without thorough investigation, how could they make such claims!!
Considering this, many Council Members spoke with anger and sorrow, "Pagoda Master, at this point, do you still intend to deceive us?"
"The only one who could silently transfer those Artificial Spirit Souls elsewhere is you, the Pagoda Master. Even the Vice Tower Master doesn't have that privilege!"
"Qiangugu Dongfeng, as the Pagoda Master, we all have great trust and respect for you, but now, you are engaged in unmentionable deeds behind our backs! You have let us all down!"
"Without even the most basic trust between us, forget it, there is no need for me to remain a member of the Spirit Pagoda's Council!"
"Hmm, anyone who wishes to stay with the Spirit Pagoda can do so, but from today on, I will no longer set foot in this place!"
Seeing that quite a few Council Members had already stood up, intending to leave the Spirit Pagoda, a few of the more rational Council Members hastily tried to appease them, "Let's not get overexcited. To leave the Spirit Pagoda over such a trivial matter would negate years of hard work!"
"Yes, perhaps the Pagoda Master has his reasons. Throughout the years, hasn't the Spirit Pagoda treated everyone well?"
The impact of so many Council Members quitting the Spirit Pagoda at once can be imagined!
Watching the entire hall become increasingly noisy, Qiangugu Dongfeng's face gradually darkened, and he shouted coldly, "Everyone, stay where you are!"
The next second, his massive and terrifying pressure surged throughout the entire hall...
Every Council Member facing this pressure trembled involuntarily and stared at Qiangugu Dongfeng in disbelief, never expecting him to take action personally!
Upon seeing Qiangugu Dongfeng take action, Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes flickered, and she instantly teleported to the front of the Council Members, unleashing her own Limit Douluo Level immense pressure, rolling directly towards him…
And so, the two of them stood off against each other, neither able to overpower the other!
Qiangugu Dongfeng's eyes narrowed, "Vice Pagoda Master, are you betraying me too?"
Leng Yaozhu replied coldly, "Betrayal? Pagoda Master, after all, shouldn't you be the one who first betrayed us, secretly cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult?"
"For that, you even have someone watching me at all times!"
The moment these words left her mouth, the Council Members' eyes widened in shock...
"What? The Pagoda Master has been secretly cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult?"
"Could it be… all those missing Artificial Soul Spirits have fallen into the hands of the Holy Spirit Cult's evil Soul Masters? Hiss…"
"The Pagoda Master was indeed in collusion with the Holy Spirit Cult. The Spirit Pagoda is no longer worth our protection!"
They never expected that they, the internal staff of the Spirit Pagoda, were in the dark the whole time!
At this moment, Qiangugu Dongfeng revealed a brutal expression and began a savage laugh, "Hahaha... Hahahaha! Now that it's come to this, there's indeed no need to hide it from you anymore. I have indeed traded with the Holy Spirit Cult in secret! But… everything I do is for the future of the Spirit Pagoda!"
Leng Yaozhu pressed her lips together tightly, "Pagoda Master, stop being delusional. It's not too late to sever ties with the Holy Spirit Cult now!"
If the Elders of Sea God's Pavilion were to find out, Qiangugu Dongfeng would surely die without a doubt!
Qiangugu Dongfeng ignored her and, turning his gaze to the shadowy corners of the hall, said, "Come out!"
After his words, dozens of evil Soul Masters in black robes eerily emerged from the shadows surrounding them.
This naturally included one of the Four Great Kings, the Dark Blood Devil!
He approached Qiangugu Dongfeng at a leisurely pace and spoke with a creepy voice, "Hehehe… Qiangugu Dongfeng, I told you earlier to take care of that Vice Pagoda Master, didn't I?"
```
Qiangugu Dongfeng rebuked in a cold voice, "Shut up, it's not your place to point fingers at what I do!"
His cooperation with the Holy Spirit Cult was purely for the sake of profit; he didn't have the slightest bit of fondness for evil Soul Masters!
The Dark Blood Devil didn't get angry but sneered instead, "How heartbreaking, it was you who actively sought out our Holy Spirit Cult's help!"
Opposite him, Leng Yaozhu was inwardly shocked, thinking to herself, "Damn it, when did they plant an evil Soul Master without me even noticing!"
She paused for a moment before looking towards the Dark Blood Demon with evident wariness...
The strength of this evil Soul Master was not weaker than her own, but stronger!
The situation had become somewhat troublesome!
...
Shrek Academy!
Turbid World approached Shen Yi and inquired, "Shen Yi, where is Elder Xu?"
Having been rejected by Xu Sheng, Shen Yi pouted and said with a bit of resentment, "How would I know where he is!"
That guy kept putting her off time after time; if it weren't for her true feelings, she couldn't care less about his whereabouts!
The former coughed and said seriously, "Shen Yi, I have an important message for him!"
Every Elder at the Sea God's Pavilion was currently very anxious and had no interest in joking around!
Shen Yi shifted her mouth, about to speak when suddenly the voice of Wu Changkong rang out...
"Teacher, Elder Xu just left the academy a short while ago," he said.
Turbid World frowned slightly and said helplessly, "I see, then we'll have to wait until he returns to speak with him!"
After saying this, Turbid World turned and left, clearly having other important matters to attend to!
Then, Shen Yi curiously turned to Wu Changkong and asked, "Senior Brother, what brings you here? Aren't you with Tian Bing?"
Wu Changkong revealed a small smile, "It's been a while since Tian Bing was revived, we have plenty of time and there's no need to rush this moment."
His character nowadays had changed from the cold male god he once was, following the revival of Long Bing.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi showed contempt, "Pfft, that's not what you said when Tian Bing first revived. Don't tell me you're bored with her now."
Wu Changkong suddenly became anxious and said with some displeasure, "Shen Yi, don't say things like that anymore. Tian Bing is the only one in my heart!"
Shen Yi pursed her lips and said, "Alright, alright! I get it, my dear senior brother."
Seeing her reaction, Wu Changkong changed the subject and asked, "How are things going with you and Xu Sheng?"
This question immediately made her cheeks turn red, "Senior Brother... what... what are you talking about!"
Wu Changkong sighed, "You can hide it from the teacher but not from me. You like Xu Sheng, don't you?"
Shen Yi became as fidgety as an ant on a hot pan and mumbled unclearly, "No... that's not it! You're overthinking it, Senior Brother!"
Wu Changkong appeared resigned, his expression gradually becoming serious...
He said earnestly, "Regardless of whether you like him or not, as your senior brother, I must give you a piece of advice: there is no future for you and Xu Sheng together! Think about it carefully!"
After hearing this, Shen Yi's expression stiffened and she fell into a silent, speechless state...
