After saying that times had changed, Qiangu Dongfeng was silent for a while, and then said: "Zhangting, don't look at our Spirit Pagoda as the sun in the sky, but all this is just an illusion. You have also studied the history of the Federation and know why the former Sun-Moon Empire failed to unify the continent after thousands of years."
Qiangu Zhangting nodded and said: "Of course I know. According to historical records, just when the Sun-Moon Empire was about to succeed, the Sea God who had ascended to the God Realm came to stop the Sun-Moon Empire from unifying the continent. But this has nothing to do with our Spirit Pagoda. What's more, isn't it said that we can't contact the God Realm now?"
Apparently, after being slapped by Qiangu Dongfeng before, Qiangu Zhangting had stopped listening carefully to the conversation between Anping and Qiangu Dongfeng, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind.
Qiangu Dongfeng was really helpless about this, but who made Qiangu Zhangting his own grandson? He could only explain patiently: "It is true that the God Realm has disappeared, but now that the Sea God's consciousness has appeared on the Douluo Star, it means that the God Realm will come back one day. You also know the recent news, Chen Xinjie and Yu Guanzhi publicly announced that they would join the Tang Sect."
"Let's not talk about Yu Guanzhi for now. Chen Xinjie's family is called the Sea God Family, and his army is also called the Sea God Legion. He is the most devout follower of the Sea God in this world. What he did can only mean one thing, which is that the Sea God's consciousness is real."
Qiangu Zhangting asked puzzledly: "But isn't it just the divine consciousness of the Sea God that appears? The God Realm has not really returned? And even if the God Realm has really returned, isn't it better for us to join the Tang Sect? Do we have a choice?"
The reason why Qiangu Zhangting thought so was simply that the Sea God was a god, and there were countless gods in the God Realm. No matter how much Anping and Gu Yuena talked about it, they were still not at the god level now. It was obvious that the Tang Sect was the better choice. He didn't understand why his grandfather chose the Miracle City.
Qiangu Dongfeng naturally knew what his grandson was thinking. He shook his head slightly and said: "If the relationship between our Spirit Pagoda, the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy was the same as when the Spirit Pagoda was just established, there would be no problem with what you said, but obviously our Spirit Pagoda does not have a good relationship with the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy."
"You have to understand one thing. The Sea God Tang San is not a good person. If we choose to join the Tang Sect, it is inevitable that we will devote ourselves to soul guidance technology. But without this, we will be dispensable to the Tang Sect."
"And because of our relationship with the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, whether we face the Miracle City or the abyss in the future, we will definitely be regarded as the vanguard, or even abandoned."
Qiangu Zhangting asked curiously: "If what Anping said is true, that Gu Yuena is really some kind of Silver Dragon King and the co-master of the soul beasts, our relationship with the Miracle City is not very good, right?"
Qiangu Dongfeng explained: "There are still differences. The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy are both organizations that have lasted for tens of thousands of years, while the Miracle City has just been established. We are more valuable to the Miracle City. But for the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, apart from soul guidance technology, we are dispensable."
"And after all, Leng Yaozhu is from the Spirit l Pagoda, and Anping and Gu Yuena are Leng Yaozhu's disciples. The most important thing is to become a god. No matter what, Anping is the one who dares to give the method of becoming a god to those who join the Miracle City. It is obviously impossible for the Sea God Tang San to allow us to reach the god level."
Regarding what Qiangu Dongfeng said about becoming a god, Qiangu Zhangting was a little confused for a moment and asked doubtfully: "Why is that? Doesn't the Sea God know that only more gods can better deal with the Miracle City and the Abyss?"
Qiangu Dongfeng sighed and said: "How could the Sea God not understand such a simple thing? But according to various signs, he is a nepotistic god. I am afraid that only the people from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy who devoured his parents can become gods before the abyss. He will not allow anyone else to do so."
"Otherwise, why do you think Yun Ming is so talented and yet he has been unable to break through? If it wasn't for what the Sea God Tang San did, how could Yun Ming and Yali leave Shrek Academy? You must know that Yun Ming used to regard Shrek Academy as important as his own life."
"And if Tang San's parents want to devour the abyss, they must first lure out the Abyssal Sage King. If a large number of gods suddenly appear on the Douluo Star, the Abyssal Sage King will definitely not take the bait. And the soul masters of the Douluo Star will definitely be suppressed when they go to the abyss. They can't use their full strength."
"Tang San didn't allow the Douluo Star to have any gods, I'm afraid he just wanted to sacrifice us to lure out the Abyssal Sage King."
After hearing Qiangu Dongfeng's analysis, Qiangu Zhangting finally understood why his grandfather chose the Miracle City even if he had to pay a huge price.
Afterwards, Qiangu Dongfeng explained to Qiangu Zhangting his understanding of Anping and Gu Yuena, as well as the major forces that had joined the Miracle City. In short, these two people were not as nepotistic as Tang San.
And just after Qiangu Dongfeng and Qiangu Zhangting left, and Anping and Gu Yuena returned to their residence in the Miracle City, Gu Yuena said with some confusion: "Judging from the current situation in the Miracle City, the Qiangu family is already dispensable, right? Why are you so concerned about them?"
It was no wonder that Gu Yuena didn't understand. Compared with the forces that had joined the Miracle City, the Qiangu Family didn't seem to be an indispensable existence except for having more resources. After all, the Miracle City already had technology that could replace souls.
And after the Miracle City possessed artificial soul ring technology and artificial soul bone technology, resource acquisition would not be particularly difficult for the Miracle City. After all, compared to souls, customizable soul rings were obviously more attractive to soul masters, not to mention artificial soul bones.
Anping explained: "Nana, I am doing this mainly for the future. You have to know that we will eventually leave this world in the future, and if we want to explore other worlds, the two of us alone are not enough. It is natural for people to transcend. The more the merrier."
"What's more, the Qiangu family has been running the Spirit Pagoda for a long time, and it is not a waste of reputation. It will be an extremely important help for the rapid development of the Miracle City, and for dealing with the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy in the future."
After hearing Anping's words, Gu Yuena didn't say anything more. She also understood that the God Realm was the root cause of the soul beasts' plight. The Spirit Pagoda and the other soul masters were just pawns of the God Realm.
And Anping's reasoning made sense. The Qiangu Family and the Spirit Pagoda under their control would greatly boost the Miracle City's development. Besides, Qiangu Dongfeng had agreed to hand over all the existing souls, and they could also turn them back into soul beasts.
