Leaving the room, Halos's racing heart finally began to calm down. He thought to himself with a silent sigh, "Hmm... has the Sect Hierarch already started to be dissatisfied with me? It seems I must be more cautious in my actions and speech hereafter!"
After all, as the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Holy Spirit Cult, he had personally witnessed the terrifying power of the Sect Hierarch, no, the Ghost Emperor!
It was something no evil Soul Master could compare to!
He then walked toward the Dark Blood Devil and the other two. Seeing him approach, they all said in unison, "Vice Sect Hierarch!"
Halos nodded slightly, "Hmm."
Following that, Leng Yulai asked in a cold tone, "Vice Sect Hierarch, now that Tang Sect has dispatched Disciples to support Shrek Academy, has the Sect Hierarch or the Demon Emperor instructed us on how to act?"
Dark Blood Devil and Nanali also fixed their gazes on Halos, awaiting his reply...
Halos's expression grew more solemn as he spoke, "According to the Demon Emperor and the Sect Hierarch, they want one of the three of you to lead some evil Soul Masters and take the opportunity to attack the Tang Sect!"
"Of course, the so-called attack is not about completely destroying Tang Sect, but rather to probe the true strength of this force!"
Nanali's beautiful eyes suddenly sharpened, "Vice Sect Hierarch, let me handle this!"
Halos had been watching her as he spoke, likely intending for her to undertake this mission!
Halos nodded, noncommittally saying, "That's what I was thinking too. The Dark Blood Devil needs to communicate with the Spirit Pagoda at all times, and the overall strength of Leng Yulai is slightly weaker, not quite suitable for this mission!"
The Darkness Phoenix, Leng Yulai, although also one of the Four Great Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, had a soul power rank of only level 97!
This was far weaker than Nanali and the Dark Blood Devil!
If faced with the peak strength of Tang Sect, it could lead to death, therefore sending Nanali was the most appropriate decision!
Nanali said indifferently, "Hmm! I will lead the evil Soul Masters to attack Tang Sect tomorrow!"
Seeing that Nanali had no objections, Halos affirmed again, "Hmm, let's go. We should discuss the specific plan before we attack!"
After speaking, Halos and she left together, leaving only the Dark Blood Devil and Leng Yulai behind.
The Dark Blood Devil, giving Leng Yulai a side glance, revealed a sinister smile, "Leng Yulai, if I were to kill your sister, you wouldn't hold any grudges, would you?"
Leng Yulai was stunned for a moment, his face immediately darkening, "What does her death have to do with me?"
Although Leng Yaozhu was Leng Yulai's blood sister, their relationship had shattered in the past over Yun Ming!
That's why she joined the Holy Spirit Cult and became one of the Four Great Kings, the Darkness Phoenix!
The Dark Blood Devil twisted his neck, eliciting a series of "crack crack" sounds, and, licking his dry lips, said, "Since that's the case, I won't need to hesitate when the time comes to act."
If Qiangugu Dongfeng couldn't make up his mind, then it was up to him to lend a hand!
...
In a vacant space outside the Shrek Academy!
Yuanen Yehui, who was meditating in a seated position, slowly opened his eyes and curiously turned to Xu Sheng beside him, "Teacher Xu, I heard that Tang Sect has sent reinforcements to Shrek Academy, is that true?"
The meditating Wu Dousi woke up from her trance immediately...
Xu Sheng smiled, "Yes, Tang Sect has likely dispatched nearly half of their Disciples here. Now, the whole Shrek City is under the control of Tang Sect and Shrek Academy!"
Even though these Tang Sect disciples continuously spread towards other cities in the vicinities, it was clearly not a wise move!
Once the Tang Sect disciples are separated, it would be easy for the Holy Spirit Cult to defeat them one by one!
Wu Dousi said coldly, "Humph, Tang Sect didn't lift a finger when our Shrek Academy was severely damaged, and now they come to make a show of it!"
In her mind, this move by Tang Sect was too little too late and entirely useless!
Yuanen Yehui glanced over, "Well, that's not entirely fair to say. Tang Sect has been focusing on the study of soul tools for many years and hasn't paid much attention to the matters of the Continent. It's understandable that they didn't provide immediate support!"
This statement immediately aroused Wu Dousi's dissatisfaction, who said with a cold voice, "Yuanen Yehui, since you speak so favorably for the Tang Sect, whose side are you really on?"
The look in Yuanen Yehui's eyes also grew colder, "I am naturally a student of Shrek Academy, I'm just stating the facts!"
While neither of them was willing to back down, Xu Sheng's communicator suddenly rang...
After connecting, he immediately asked, "Hello, Elder Cai, is there something you need?"
From the communicator came Cai Yue'er's voice, "Elder Xu, people from the Tang Sect have arrived, the Pavilion Master is calling you to the Sea God's Pavilion right away!"
Xu Sheng nodded, "The Tang Sect, eh? Alright, I'll be there right away!"
To tell the truth, he didn't have a very good impression of the Tang Sect because the use of hidden weapons in the world of Soul Land was considered a lowly tactic!
Of course, part of the reason was Tang San!
Immediately, as his dark eyes shifted towards Yuanen Yehui and Wu Dousi, preparing to speak...
Both of them said in unison, "Teacher Xu, since the Sea God's Pavilion has something important for you, go ahead!"
After saying this, the incredulous girls gave each other a fierce glare...
Seeing this, Xu Sheng didn't say much, "Okay, then you two keep on cultivating quietly here, I'll come back after I finish with the matter!"
...
Inside the Sea God's Pavilion!
The Mintang Hall Master glanced around at the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion seated nearby and spoke up, "Pavilion Master, esteemed Elders, can we start the discussion now?"
Cai Yue'er's beautiful eyes flickered as she spoke softly, "All the Tang Sect Hall Masters, please wait a moment, we're still missing one Elder of the Sea God Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, the other Hall Masters all showed puzzled expressions...
They remembered that the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion should only be the ones present!
Could it be that the Sea God's Pavilion has recently had a new addition?
Just then, Yun Ming suddenly said, "He's here!"
The crowd, hearing this, turned their heads to look toward the great doors of the Sea God's Pavilion...
Indeed, a few seconds later, the door was slowly pushed open, revealing the figure of Xu Sheng...
"Sorry, esteemed Elders, I'm a bit late!"
When the people from the Tang Sect saw how young Xu Sheng was, they were utterly stunned...
They had not expected that the Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion they had been waiting for would be such a young man!
"What? This young fellow couldn't possibly be the Elder we've been waiting for, could he?"
"You've got to be joking, his soul power fluctuation seems to be only at the Soul Sage level, right? He's definitely not qualified to join the Sea God's Pavilion?"
"Never expected the Sea God's Pavilion to admit a Soul Sage, this... this truly is unprecedented!"
Seeing this scene, Cai Yue'er's face showed a flicker of displeasure, reminding them, "Fellow Hall Masters, Xu Sheng is indeed an Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion!"
If one were to judge Xu Sheng's strength based on his soul power rank and age, that would be quite foolish!
This was a being that even the Sea God Pavilion Master was wary of!
