章 2178: Chapter 2122: Eradicating the Holy Spirit Cult (Please Subscribe)_1

The next day!

Spirit Pagoda branches in various cities began to mobilize personnel, and after assembling tens of thousands of people, they started the day-and-night eradication of the Holy Spirit Cult's strongholds...

Meanwhile, Nanali and several Title Douluo level evil Soul Masters, in order to avoid unnecessary battles, kept changing their strongholds, but they were still discovered by the Spirit Pagoda's eradication team within a short period of time...

At this moment, one of the evil Soul Masters cursed, "Damn it, has the Spirit Pagoda gone mad? They're actually pulling in personnel from each branch to cleanse our Holy Spirit Cult's strongholds on such a large scale!"

Another evil Soul Master gritted his teeth, "I don't remember us ever offending the Spirit Pagoda; they have no reason to chase us like mad dogs!"

"Hmph, the Spirit Pagoda truly is hypocritical. They weren't like this when they joined hands with our Holy Spirit Cult."

"There's no helping it, the new Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda despises the Holy Spirit Cult, and it seems he has a complicated relationship with the Darkness Phoenix!"

"If the Spirit Pagoda's people come after us again, we'll fight them to the end. We evil Soul Masters aren't pushovers!"

However, this suggestion was rejected by Nanali, "No!"

The team leading the Spirit Pagoda's force this time actually included two Ultimate Douluo and several Hyper Douluo, clearly beyond what they could contend with!

The only option was to lay low for the time being and wait for the Spirit Pagoda to stop their cleansing!

The evil Soul Master closest to her hesitated, "But Lord of Dark Bell, if we keep fleeing like this, it's going to disrupt the Demon Emperor's plans... "

Nanali merely glanced at him, "It doesn't matter, we just need to keep attracting the attention of the Spirit Pagoda to allow the other strongholds' evil Soul Masters to quickly evacuate."

It was strange, the Holy Spirit Cult had infiltrated Skysea City and used it as their initial base to expand around...

The Spirit Pagoda should have discovered it the first thing, but they took no action and chose to merely watch from the sidelines!

This time, however, they have launched such a massive campaign; it probably isn't so simple!

But in the next second, something seemed to click in her mind, and she thought, "Wait, could it be because they attacked Tang Wulin?"

No... no, that's not right; Tang Wulin should have no relationship with the Spirit Pagoda...

Then, it all had to be because of the Title Douluo level young man she had slain not long ago!

He could have a significant position within the federation!

Putting these things together, Nanali finally understood the ins and outs of the entire situation!

Just as she was about to say something else, an evil Soul Master burst in with a frantic look and hurriedly reported, "Lord of Dark Bell, the Spirit Pagoda's people have caught up again and destroyed several strongholds closest to us!"

Nanali took a deep breath, a cold light flashing in her eyes, "Notify everyone to retreat immediately! Do not confront the Spirit Pagoda head-on!"

The former bowed slightly, "Yes, Lord of Dark Bell!"

...

In the midst of the large assembly of Spirit Pagoda members!

One could see most of the members discussing among themselves...

"It's truly exhilarating, in just one morning and evening, we have destroyed dozens of the evil Soul Master's strongholds; the Holy Spirit Cult must be feeling the pain."

"Of course, after all, the Holy Spirit Cult has to sneak around like rats, secretly keeping tabs on all the major powers! Losing so many evil Soul Masters all at once must have them fuming."

"It's just a pity that we didn't capture the Lord of Dark Bell to avenge Qiangu Zhangting."

"No helping it, that character seems to know she's no match for us, always in hiding! If this continues, it's going to be hard to catch her!"

As the leader of this team, Bi Ji's dark green eyes appeared somewhat complex, "I never thought that one day, we would stand shoulder to shoulder with humans in battle!"

The other ferocious beasts, upon hearing this, retorted disdainfully, "Tsk, we are only doing this to vent our Master's anger; humans are simply unworthy of fighting alongside us!"

"You're right. Humans are so cunning and not to be trusted. Moreover, if it weren't for the Spirit Pagoda, how could our Soul Beast Clan have ever fallen to the brink of extinction!"

"Once Master takes control of the Spirit Pagoda, we must use the technology of the humans to restore the Soul Beast Clan to its former glory!"

Bi Ji sensed someone approaching and interrupted without changing her expression, "Alright, it's better not to talk about such things in public!"

Indeed, several powerful members of the Spirit Pagoda approached them...

The leading man respectfully said, "We didn't expect the strength of the legion commanders... no, I mean the Council Members, to be so formidable. Without our involvement, we would likely be able to easily annihilate the Holy Spirit Cult's stronghold!"

He had reached the realm of the Hyper Douluo, but in front of them, he always felt a sense of trepidation...

The others also agreed, saying, "Thanks to your joining, our Spirit Pagoda's top combat strength is now second to none!"

"Yes, especially Council Member Bi Ji, who can easily slay the Title Douluo level evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult; your strength is truly formidable!!"

"At first, I thought the Pagoda Master was being somewhat rash, but now it seems that with your strength, you are fully deserving of the Council Member positions!"

Bi Ji and the other ferocious beasts responded to these flattering words with only brief, noncommittal replies...

These human powerhouses had only come to exchange greetings and, knowing their place, they promptly left...

At this time, one of the more ill-tempered ferocious beasts sneered, "They talk as if they are so heartfelt. When we first took over this team, very few treated us as comrades!"

Bi Ji said indifferently, "Just keep it in mind. There's no need to say it out loud. Everyone, get ready. We will continue to attack the Holy Spirit Cult's stronghold later!"

...

Meanwhile, Gu Yue had already returned to the Spirit Pagoda!

The moment she saw her, Leng Yaozhu immediately pressed on her shoulders, and a massive surge of Soul Power rushed into her body...

Gu Yue was startled by this action, but upon sensing that the other person had no ill intent, she did not resist, though she did become more vigilant...

"Pagoda Master, what is this??"

After a while, Leng Yaozhu finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, you haven't suffered any injuries, and there are no curses or soul skills left by evil Soul Masters!"

Only then did Gu Yue realize that the other party had been checking her for injuries and lowered her guard...

Immediately after, she passed over a storage soul tool, "Pagoda Master, this contains the corpse of Qiangu Zhangting; I have brought it back!"

Leng Yaozhu was stunned for a moment, then took the storage soul tool, looked at it deeply for a moment, and sighed, "This child was a descendant of Qiangugu Dongfeng. Such misfortune—I never thought he would die at the hands of a Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master just after joining the Spirit Pagoda!"

She still felt a twinge of guilt...

After a pause, she then looked intently at Gu Yue, "But in my eyes, your safety is the most important!"

After all, she was the one Leng Yaozhu had identified as the next master of the Spirit Pagoda, and the "daughter" she had unilaterally acknowledged!
