Chapitre 2090: Chapter 2044: Triple the Price (Subscription Request)_1
Several days later, Shrek Academy sent a message to the Spirit Pagoda...
Shen Yi entered the Spirit Pagoda and, with a smile on his face, said to the front desk staff, "I am the Dean of Shrek Academy, Shen Yi. I have matters to discuss with Lord of the Cold Tower! Please notify them for me!"
Upon hearing the identity of the visitor, the staff's expressions subtly changed...
One of the female staff members respectfully said, "Please wait here a moment; I will go and inform the Pagoda Master right away."
This was the Dean of Shrek Academy, whose strength was at the very least of the Title Douluo level. He was not someone they could afford to offend!
Then she went to the side, turned on the communicator, and began to converse...
After a long while, she hung up the call and walked over to Shen Yi, saying, "The Pagoda Master is waiting in the rest room. I will lead you there!"
Shen Yi didn't say much else, replying simply, "Okay!"
And so, the two of them took the elevator to the upper levels and, after walking some more, finally arrived outside a closed rest room...
The female staff member gestured, then turned and left...
Shen Yi politely knocked a few times, "Tap, tap, tap!"
"Come in!"
Only after hearing a response from inside did he push the door and enter...
What met his eyes was Leng Yaozhu sitting lazily on the couch, but it did not diminish the terrifying pressure she exuded...
Shen Yi silently circulated his Soul Power to resist and respectfully said, "Lord of the Cold Tower!"
After seeing his face, Leng Yaozhu lessened her pressure and said coldly, "You must be Turbid World's disciple, aren't you? Why didn't Cai Yue'er come personally? Does Shrek Academy think that our Spirit Pagoda no longer holds any status on the Continent?"
Shen Yi took a deep breath, trying to stay calm as he replied, "Lord of the Cold Tower, you have misunderstood. Elder Cai has already handed the position of the External Academy's Dean over to me!"
The opponent was indeed a being from the same era as the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion, their mere presence suffocating him!
Hearing this, Leng Yaozhu's expression eased somewhat, "So, why have you come? Is it regarding Gu Yue?"
If they had regrets and wanted to take Gu Yue back to Shrek Academy, she would definitely not agree!
Shen Yi quickly waved his hands and said, "No, Lord of the Cold Tower, I am here for another matter!"
Leng Yaozhu snorted coldly, speaking indifferently, "Have a seat; don't say that our Spirit Pagoda lacks hospitality!"
Shen Yi then cautiously sat down and said earnestly, "Lord of the Cold Tower, I am here on behalf of all the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion, hoping that you can open up the supply of Spirit Souls to the Douling Empire!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of chill flashed through Leng Yaozhu's eyes, "Open up the supply of Spirit Souls? The current Pagoda Master is still here, and Shrek Academy already wants to control the Spirit Pagoda?"
"And once Gu Yue becomes the Spirit Pagoda's master, do you expect to use the excuse that she was once a Shrek student to monopolize the Spirit Pagoda!"
These few sentences made Shen Yi feel as though he had fallen into an ice cave...
He even had an illusion that if he dared to agree, he might not be able to leave this room!
He clenched his teeth and mustered his courage to say, "Lord of the Cold Tower, Shrek Academy has no intention of interfering with the Spirit Pagoda, nor have we ever thought about it, it's just that..."
Leng Yaozhu's sharp gaze hardened as she pressed, "Just what?"
Shen Yi's tone grew heavier, "It's just that recently, the emperor of the Douling Empire sent a letter, hoping that Shrek Academy could help ease the relations between the Spirit Pagoda and the Douling Empire."
Shen Yi clenched his fists, "These hypocritical people, having been exposed, now want to leverage a third party to pressure me?"
When the Douling Empire's supply of Spirit Souls was cut off, they showed not a hint of reflection!
What's more, in the past few years, they even secretly dispatched Soul Masters to attack the Spirit Pagoda's transport teams...
Whether it was one or the other, she had not the slightest thought of restoring the supply of Spirit Souls to the Douling Empire!
```
Witnessing this scene, Shen Yi approached cautiously and asked, "Lord of the Cold Tower, if possible, can you tell me what exactly happened between the Spirit Pagoda and the Douling Empire?"
Leng Yaozhu glanced at her and said coldly, "I see no harm in telling you..."
...
After learning everything, Shen Yi's expression turned ugly as she said, "So that's how it is, no wonder the Spirit Pagoda refuses to supply Spirit Souls to the Douling Empire!"
Even she felt like saying they deserved it!
At that moment, Leng Yaozhu crossed her arms and said indifferently, "You've heard what you wanted to hear. In consideration of your teacher, I won't make this difficult for you. Go back!"
Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, "But..."
Leng Yaozhu's thin lips tightened, and a faint murderous intent surfaced as she said, "But what? While I don't wish to harm you, everyone's patience has limits!"
At that moment, Shen Yi no longer restrained herself, and the aura of a Titled Douluo burst forth...
With a stern rebuke, she said, "Lord of the Cold Tower, Shrek Academy also does not wish to get involved in this matter, but if the Spirit Pagoda does not agree to resume supplying the Douling Empire, they will wage war on Soul Land!"
"With the current situation, I can't believe you, Lord of the Cold Tower, do not understand. First, there was the Holy Spirit Cult, then the abyssal creatures. Whichever intervenes, it will bring a great disaster!"
"That's all I have to say. Please reconsider, Lord of the Cold Tower!"
Having said that, Shen Yi turned to leave...
"Wait,"
A slightly calmer voice stopped her...
Shen Yi paused, turning back to look at Leng Yaozhu...
The latter sighed resignedly, "I understand now why Cai Yue'er chose you to be the dean of the outer court; you're just like her when she started out!"
Shen Yi's face reddened, "Lord of the Cold Tower, I was too impulsive just now, please…"
Leng Yaozhu did not hold it against her and waved her hand dismissively, "Forget it, go back and tell them that the Spirit Pagoda can resume the supply of Spirit Souls to the Douling Empire, but the price will be three times that of ordinary Spirit Souls! Additionally, the damage initially caused must also be compensated!"
"If they are unwilling, then the Spirit Pagoda is not afraid to go to war!"
At three times the price of ordinary Spirit Souls, it would bring sufficient benefits and give the Douling Empire a blow to their pride!
As for going to war, that was even more laughable!
Don't forget, the federation still has the last God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile; they certainly won't sit idly by!
Shen Yi nodded, "Yes, Lord of the Cold Tower, I will relay the message exactly as you have said!"
With that, she gestured and then left the room...
...
Emperor Xue Yuntian slammed his fist onto the chair, bellowing, "The Spirit Pagoda is going too far, demanding that our Douling Empire buy Spirit Souls at three times the price, and they even require compensation!"
Seeing this, the ministers below urgently tried to console him, "Your Majesty, this result is not bad, considering if the Spirit Pagoda had not agreed, initiating a war by ourselves would have probably made us a target for all!"
"That's right, not to mention the presence of the federation, which still possesses a God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile."
"The Spirit Pagoda's master must have calculated that we can only accept, damn it... it feels somewhat intolerable!"
"Intolerable or not, we on Douling Land are at the bottom among the three major empires, both in terms of technological level and Soul Master strength!"
