It wasn't until after they left that Guo Xiaoxu and Liang Xiaoyu approached, urgently asking, "Sect Leader, what did Gu Yuena discuss with you?"
Zang Xin glanced at them, "It's about the topic we discussed last time!"
Liang Xiaoyu's pupils shrank, "Our topic from last time? Wasn't that about whether to remove Gu Yuena's identity as a disciple of the Tang Sect?"
Guo Xiaoxu was quite puzzled, "Why would she suddenly ask about this? Is it possible she's dissatisfied with the identity of a Tang Sect Disciple and wants to get rid of it?"
Zang Xin denied, "No, it's not that simple. I'm afraid her doing this has something to do with the Spirit Pagoda's plans that have always remained hidden!"
Guo Xiaoxu persisted, "Then Sect Leader, what's your decision?"
Zang Xin took a deep breath, "In the absence of clarity, the natural response is to refuse. Perhaps, the Spirit Pagoda will reveal some clues through this!"
...
Upon hearing the news, Tang Wulin was slightly surprised, "What?? Gu Yuena has led Di Tian and others to the Tang Sect!"
Zhao Chong nodded slightly, "Indeed, it seems that her purpose is to have the Tang Sect revoke her status as a disciple!"
Tang Wulin frowned, "But why would Gu Yue do such a thing? Whether or not she has the identity of a Tang Sect Disciple shouldn't affect her now that she has taken over as the master of the Spirit Pagoda, should it?"
He felt increasingly unable to understand Gu Yuena's actions!
Zhao Chong shook his head, "That we cannot know. However, the Sect Leader specifically instructed me to inform you."
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment, "Because I am the Young Master of the Tang Sect?"
Zhao Chong replied, "That's one reason, another is that you and Gu Yuena are partners!"
Tang Wulin suddenly understood and nodded, "I see, I understand!"
Zhao Chong, seeing him stay calm, couldn't help but remind him, "Wulin, you must be careful with Gu Yuena. She's certainly up to some shady business behind the scenes!"
"Maybe, it involves the Holy Spirit Cult..."
Even though the two were partners, what if Gu Yuena deliberately exploited that relationship?
Tang Wulin interrupted in a cold voice, "Enough, Hall Master Zhao. I know that all forces are suspicious of Gu Yuena conspiring with the ferocious beasts because of Qiangu Qingfeng's remarks!"
"But she would never collaborate with the Holy Spirit Cult, definitely not that!"
He was well aware that Gu Yuena, like himself, loathed the Holy Spirit Cult!
Zhao Chong didn't expect such an outburst and hastily tried to appease him, "Wulin, don't be agitated. I was just giving a reminder, I meant no offense."
"It's my fault for speaking out of turn. You've been able to become the Young Sect Master and the Master of the Sea God's Pavilion; you surely have your own judgment!"
Tang Wulin gave him a look, "Hall Master Zhao, I didn't take it as a reproach. I just trust Gu Yue. I believe she wouldn't do anything to harm the Continent."
"If there truly comes a day when Gu Yue makes a mistake, I will risk my life to stop her!"
Zhao Chong sighed, "Wulin..."
The Sect Leader was right; Wulin was still too trusting of Gu Yuena and unable to see her true intentions.
Tang Wulin no longer had the interest to continue, "Hall Master Zhao, my friends are waiting for me. I will take my leave now!"
Watching him leave, Zhao Chong still took out his communication device...
"Sect Leader, Wulin is still too fixated on that Gu Yuena and doesn't want to believe what I said."
On the other end, Zang Xin's voice came through, "It's fine if he can't accept it now. I just hope the boy won't be completely devastated when he eventually has to face the truth."
Otherwise, it would just be too disappointing!
Hearing Zang Xin say that, Zhao Chong didn't dwell on the matter further, "Sect Leader, is there anything else I need to do here?"
Zang Xin hesitated for a moment, "Just stay there for now, and assist Elder Cai in rebuilding Shrek Academy."
"With Hall Master Guo and Hall Master Liang at the Tang Sect, there won't be any problems!"
Zhao Chong originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking it over, those two were smarter than him. He wouldn't be of much help even if he went back.
"I understand, Sect Leader, I leave the Tang Sect in your hands. I'll be back after a while!"
...
Meanwhile, after a fierce battle with the Titan Ape, Yueguan and Gui Mei finally found the opportunity to escape...
But when they pursued in the direction Xu Sheng had fled, there was no longer any trace of him!
Yueguan said angrily, "Damn it, we let that kid get away! We can't sense his presence at all!"
Gui Mei reigned in his murderous intent and spoke darkly, "It seems that the kid has no intention of joining our Martial Soul Hall. We must report this matter to His Holiness."
Such exceptional talent and intelligence, if he cannot be utilized by the Martial Soul Hall!
In the future, he could bring about significant trouble!
Upon hearing this, Yueguan's cheeks showed a hint of hesitation, "Lao Gui, if we report this to His Holiness, I fear..."
If the Pope were to learn that they couldn't even keep an eye on a child, the consequences would be severe!
But Gui Mei said coldly, "No matter. We'll just say that the child had already fled before we arrived at Holy Soul Village."
Possibly, the Soul Masters from the Sub-hall had already carried out his command to destroy Holy Soul Village!
Even if someone wanted to investigate, they wouldn't find any useful information!
Yueguan opened his mouth but ended up saying nothing...
....
Holy Soul Village!
When the Soul Masters from the Spirit Hall Sub-Hall received the command to annihilate Holy Soul Village, they all expressed their confusion!
"Do we really need to kill everyone in Holy Soul Village? Why must we do this?"
"Yeah, hadn't Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo taken that child away?"
"The villagers of this village are all ordinary people. There's really no need to kill the innocent, right?"
The leading deacon saw this and shouted angrily, "How dare you question! This is Ghost Douluo's command. Are you thinking of defying your orders?"
If he executed Ghost Douluo's orders perfectly, he would surely garner his favor!
At that time, he might even be transferred to the real Martial Soul Hall to serve directly under His Majesty!
With these words, all the Soul Masters lowered their heads...
But it was Suyun Tao who was the first to speak, "Since it's Ghost Douluo's command, what are you hesitating for? Let's do it!"
Holy Soul Village had brought shame upon him, and nothing could be more pleasing than destroying this place!
With his words, the other Soul Masters, although reluctant, chose to carry out the orders!
In an instant, everyone released their Martial Souls and rushed into Holy Soul Village...
Seeing the Soul Masters charging in furiously, filled with killing intent, the villagers of Holy Soul Village immediately showed a look of fear...
"What... what are you going to do??"
Suyun Tao, standing at the forefront, revealed an evil smile, "What are we going to do? Of course, we're here to destroy Holy Soul Village and all of you here!"
"Blame your bad luck if you must!!"
With that, the Soul Masters released their soul skills and launched an attack on the villagers before them...
