Jiang Qiyue then straightened up, proudly saying, "That's more like it! So, back to the issue at hand, let's start the investigation with the members holding high positions!"

But as soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at her with strange eyes...

Tang Wulin said somewhat awkwardly, "Well, July, I'm actually the captain of the Blood Dragon Squad now."

Her taking charge as soon as she arrived certainly wasn't a good way to integrate into the team!

Jiang Qiyue immediately realized her mistake and covered her mouth to cough a few times, "Cough... cough cough, I've been too used to giving orders in the Blood God Army, and it's all the Army Leader's fault for leaving all the tasks to me!"

Even though she had experienced absolute authority, it was indeed exhausting!

With that thought, she took a step back and stood in line with the Blood Dragon Squad...

Tang Wulin then continued, "So, as Colonel Jiang Qiyue just said, we'll start our investigation with the high-ranking members. No objections, right?"

All members of the Blood Dragon Squad shook their heads, choosing unconditional trust!

Tang Wulin nodded, "Good."

Having said that, he then turned to Yue Zhengyu and the others!

"Everyone, the Blood Dragon Squad will take leave first; you must stay vigilant!"

The Blood God Army was vast, and if they wanted to complete the investigation by night, they had to make every minute count!

Yue Zhengyu gestured with a 'no problem' hand signal, "Wulin, go ahead, we've got this place covered!"

Xie Xie then flexed his pitifully skinny biceps, "Yeah, if any evil Soul Masters dare to come, we'll smash their heads!!"

Xu Xiaoyan also reminded, "You all be careful too, the Holy Spirit Cult's evil Soul Masters might get desperate and retaliate recklessly!"

After signaling, the Blood Dragon Squad began their search...

...

Elsewhere!

One of the guest elders bowed deeply, speaking with a grave expression, "Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, our two pieces that were planted in the Blood God Army long ago have been exposed and have been killed by Blood One!"

"It seems to be related to the ruins that were destroyed!"

Another guest elder didn't speak, but carefully observed the Ghost Emperor, apparently ready to bear the brunt of the latter's forthcoming reprimand!

However, upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor showed no anger but sneered, "How ruthless indeed, to think that after fighting side by side for so long, just the identity of an evil Soul Master was enough to kill without hesitation!"

Leng Yulai, who hadn't spoken till now, seemed to be reminiscing something and showed a touch of sentimentality on her cheeks, "In this respect, they are even more ruthless than the people of our Holy Spirit Cult!"

Halosa scoffed disdainfully, "Tch, humans are all selfish. When their own interests are threatened, they show their claws!"

Fortunately, he was different, having never trusted anyone from the beginning!

The Ghost Emperor glanced at the two of them, "Why are they called evil Soul Masters? It's because of their Martial Souls, they receive disdain from others. So, if everyone becomes an evil Soul Master, there would be no more distinction between Soul Masters and evil Soul Masters!"

For an evil Soul Master to become a normal Soul Master was as difficult as ascending to heaven, but for a Soul Master to turn into an evil Soul Master was extremely simple!

Then, the Ghost Emperor questioned the guest elder again, "What about the rest of the pieces?"

The guest elder swallowed, "Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, most of our pieces have not been discovered yet. However, Tang Wulin, the captain of the Blood Dragon Squad and the Shrek Seven Monsters, is searching with the Sea God's Trident!"

"If we delay any further, your plans might be hindered!"

The Ghost Emperor's profound eyes flickered, deep in thought...

Those planted pieces were the main force in opening the Abyssal Seal; otherwise, they would not risk being active within the top echelons of the Blood God Army.

Perhaps it's time to pick up the pace!

...

Shrek Academy!

Inside the Sea God's Pavilion!

Long Yeyue glanced at the uninvited guest with her beautiful eyes and spoke calmly, "Lord Chen, you've just handed over the position of Battle God Hall's hall master to Guan Yue and rushed to Shrek Academy. Isn't that a bad influence?"

Chen Xinjie chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, I haven't been spotted by anyone, so I won't bring trouble to the War God Hall or Shrek Academy!"

Only in front of this woman could he reveal his true emotions!

Long Yeyue pursed her lips slightly, "Is that so? That would be for the best."

Chen Xinjie detected the distance in her words, his gaze intensely fixed on her, "Yeyue, when did we become so estranged? You know, I have always been waiting for the moment you would accept me!"

Long Yeyue let out a sigh, "Xinjie, we are both old now. What's the point in clinging to whether or not to love?"

Chen Xinjie did not show any sign of disheartenment. His expression, on the contrary, became even more resolute...

"No, this is very meaningful to me. It's worth my entire life!!"

Seeing this, Long Yeyue's heart softened...

To say she had no affection for him would be impossible, but her heart was filled with someone else!

With a complicated tone, she said, "Xinjie, I do have some feelings for you, and I know how deeply you've loved me over the years, but my heart is already occupied by him. I can't respond to your expectations..."

Chen Xinjie clenched his fists and said again, "It's okay. I will keep waiting until the moment you accept me!"

After speaking, he stood up...

"Then, I won't bother you for now. I'll come back after some time!"

As he left, the listening Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, who had been eavesdropping outside, one by one entered the Sea God's Pavilion...

Seeing this scene, Long Yeyue knew that everyone had been outside from the start, and calmly said, "You all heard it, didn't you?"

Tang Yinmeng's eyes shone as she said, "Yes! I never imagined that Lord Chen would have such deep feelings for you, Elder Long. If it were me, I would have agreed long ago!"

Lan Muzi coughed slightly, "Yin Meng, what are you thinking? The reason Elder Long is reluctant to accept him is probably because of Elder Bei!"

Perhaps Elder Long felt that accepting Lord Chen would be a betrayal to Elder Bei!

Cai Yue'er then said seriously, "Actually... I think you should really consider it, Elder Long. Even though we are old, we still could live for a few more decades. One shouldn't spend their entire life alone!"

"Moreover, Elder Bei would surely hope that, without him, you could find happiness!"

Wu Changkong nodded as well, "Though it's not my place to interject, I still believe that Elder Long, you could give Lord Chen a chance. After all these years, his feelings for you remain true and unchanged!"

Long Bing had returned from the dead, thus he valued emotions more than ever before!

Long Yeyue was not angry but spoke in a heavy tone, "I understand all that you're saying. It's just that, I simply can't get over the hurdle in my heart!!"

Sometimes, she indeed felt a flutter in her heart, but whenever she was about to agree, the words just wouldn't come out...
