"Wulin, may I come in?"
Engaged in closed-eye rest and again trying to break through to God Rank, Tang Wulin was clearly interrupted by this voice…
Regaining full consciousness, he opened his eyes and said, "It's Ye Hui, come in!"
Yuanen Yehui did not beat around the bush and immediately pushed the door open…
Seeing her, Tang Wulin curiously asked, "Ye Hui, did something happen at the academy?"
He had instructed that unless it was something important, they should not disturb him!
Because he needed to dedicate himself to cultivation during this time to prepare for breaking through to God Rank!
Yuanen Yehui, upon hearing this, was also very straightforward and handed over the letter she was holding, "Wulin, this letter was given to me by someone from the Spirit Pagoda to pass on to you!"
"It's very likely that Gu Yue had something she didn't want to say in public, so she wrote it in this letter. Of course, Xie Xie and the others wanted to pry it open, but I stopped them!"
Tang Wulin expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Ye Hui!"
Yuanen Yehui nodded in acknowledgment and then turned around, "In that case, I'll head back first!"
However, Tang Wulin stopped her, "Wait a moment, Ye Hui, since it's a letter from Gu Yue, you might as well have a look too!"
Yuanen Yehui paused and said dubiously, "Isn't it…all right? Gu Yue probably didn't want us to see it, that's why she specifically used a letter to give it to you, right?"
Tang Wulin immediately declared, "It's fine, we are companions who have been through life and death together, why would we worry about these things?"
It's just a letter, after all, whomever reads it does so, it's not a big deal!
Yuanen Yehui hesitated for a while, but eventually, her curiosity got the better of her, "I understand, then Wulin, you quickly open it and see what exactly Gu Yue wrote!"
Tang Wulin gathered his focus, carefully tearing open the envelope…
Inside, several lines of graceful handwriting appeared, undeniably penned by Gu Yuena!
As for what it specifically said…
He immediately put it away, looking somewhat embarrassedly at Yuanen Yehui…
His cheeks flushed as he said, "Ye Hui, well…although it's a bit embarrassing, but… the content of this letter…"
Even though he was already the Sea God Pavilion Master, he was still feeling this wave of emotion!!
Could it be because he hasn't seen Gu Yue for so long?
Yuanen Yehui was at first a bit puzzled, but then she had an epiphany…
Perhaps there were some unspeakable secrets in the letter Gu Yue had sent to him!
Immediately, with a smile on her lips, she said, "Wulin, I understand!"
"Then I won't disturb you any further!"
With those words, she left the room without a moment's pause…
Only after her presence had completely vanished did Tang Wulin finally breathe a sigh of relief…
He reopened the letter, looking through its content…
But with each passing second, his cheeks grew redder…
"Gu Yue really, if she has to say this kind of thing, she should have said it face to face!"
However, Tang Wulin quickly noticed at the very bottom of the letter, a rather conspicuous large character…
"Hm? Gu Yue wants me to go to the Spirit Pagoda tomorrow??"
"Although I don't know the specifics, this is the first invitation from Gu Yue in many years. It merits serious consideration!"
Xingluo Empire!
Just then, Lord of Dark Bell and Demon Emperor were leading several hundred evil Soul Masters, moving swiftly towards the front...
After about fifteen minutes, all the evil Soul Masters stopped in their tracks and concealed themselves around the perimeter of a massive sect...
One of the deacons, a Title Douluo, spoke to the two leading women, "Report to Lord of Dark Bell, Demon Emperor, we have now annexed about a dozen small sects, and this sect in front of us is also a top-tier sect within the Xingluo Empire!"
The Demon Emperor's expression showed no change, but Lord of Dark Bell narrowed her beautiful eyes and asked, "Oh? What is the strength of this sect?"
The deacon answered, "There is roughly one Hyper Douluo, two Title Douluos, and several Soul Douluos in the sect!"
Xingluo Empire was already at a disadvantage in terms of Soul Master strength, so even a top-tier great sect only had one Hyper Douluo-level fighter!
Lord of Dark Bell nodded slightly and commanded coldly, "Act!"
The next second, Holy Spirit Cult's evil Soul Masters, who had concealed their presence, slowly infiltrated into it...
Upon encountering the sect disciples on guard, they no longer hid their evil aura, releasing their Martial Souls and beginning a wanton slaughter...
Caught off guard, dozens of cold bodies fell to the ground...
Only then did the rest of the sect disciples realize that something was wrong, also releasing soul weapons and Martial Souls to mount a defense...
As for the others, they were visibly panicked. "What? So many evil Soul Masters are attacking! We must immediately inform the Sect Master and the Elders!"
"Damn it, it was tolerable for the Holy Spirit Cult to target the other small sects, but to dare move against our sect, this is utterly outrageous!!"
"Yes, the Holy Spirit Cult is completely lawless! Do they really think we're pushovers?"
"Everyone, don't be afraid, if worst comes to worst, we'll die fighting. Let's go all out! Fifth soul skill..."
It wasn't long before the sect's Sect Master led the elders to arrive in time, rallying the sect disciples to resist...
For a short while, the outcome of the battle was indecisive...
Witnessing all this, Lord of Dark Bell clapped a few times, praising, "As expected of a top-tier sect of the Xingluo Empire, such rallying power is indeed impressive!"
The Demon Emperor just glanced over with an icy, murderous gaze, readying herself for battle...
The man known as "Sect Master" showed a hint of wariness in his eyes...
He thought to himself, "Without even releasing their Martial Souls, they're putting so much pressure on me, they must also be Hyper Douluo-level powerhouses! And their soul power rank might be even higher!"
The few elders next to him whispered, "Sect Master, those two women must be the strongest in this Holy Spirit Cult troop, we must eliminate them first!"
"That's right, after killing them, the soul masters of the Holy Spirit Cult won't be a threat anymore, otherwise, our sect fears it may..."
The man gestured for them to stop and, staring at Lord of Dark Bell and Demon Emperor, said, "Our sect has never provoked the Holy Spirit Cult. I wonder why the Holy Spirit Cult would launch such a massive attack?"
With just himself and the elders, they definitely would not be a match for the evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult!
Therefore, the best they could do now was to delay for time and wait for reinforcements!
Upon hearing his words, Lord of Dark Bell pursed her thin lips and said indifferently, "It's quite simple. The Holy Spirit Cult's goal is to rule the Continent. Any sect or Soul Master only has two choices: submission or death."
Her words, brimming with confidence, made the man swallow hard and, steeling himself, he said, "I can't decide this matter alone. May I ask if you could give us some time to consider?"
