After returning to Sea God's Pavilion, Lan Muzi and the other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion all cast curious glances...
Especially Xu Xiaoyan, who couldn't help but ask aloud, "Elder Cai, have you figured out who the guy investigating Shrek Academy is?"
Cai Yue'er shook her head, "I'm not sure who he is, but one thing is certain—he wore a black robe, and his strength is probably even greater than mine!"
Lan Muzi pondered, "Does that mean he's an Ultimate Douluo level powerhouse? Could it be that the Ghost Emperor sent him to spy?"
To this query, the former denied, "No, that shouldn't be the case. I didn't sense any trace of evil from him!"
Ye Xinglan frowned and reminded, "Elder Cai, just this point alone isn't enough to be sure he's not an evil Soul Master. After all, there are many evil Soul Masters who can conceal their own aura, like those who infiltrated our Shrek Academy before!"
Xu Lizhi echoed, "Right, if this man is an evil Soul Master coming to investigate Shrek Academy, it won't be long before he takes action!"
Yuanen Zhentian propped up his chin and pondered deeply, then asked from another angle, "Elder Cai, did that man mention his purpose for coming to Shrek Academy?"
Cai Yue'er replied honestly, "He said he had an extremely important matter to discuss with Wulin personally, and he was unwilling to tell me!"
"After he left, he should have already headed to the Douling Empire by now!"
Xu Xiaoyan seemed to think of something and looked toward Ye Xinglan, whispering, "The man in a black robe, looking for Wulin... could it be...?"
The latter also understood her meaning and replied discreetly, "Yes, it's very possible!"
Wearing a black robe, and with strength at the Ultimate Douluo level, and his goal is to find Wulin...
In their memories, there was only one person!
The Titan Ape!
Noticing this, Lan Muzi couldn't help but follow up, "Xiao Yan, Xing Lan, do you two suspect something?"
Xu Xiaoyan didn't conceal her thoughts and agreed, "Yes, there's a high probability that this black-robed person could be the ancestor of the Yuanen Clan, the Titan Ape, but we also aren't completely sure."
In an instant, everyone turned their gazes towards Yuanen Zhentian...
Because the latter could be said to be the eldest in the Yuanen Clan!
He showed an embarrassed expression and explained, "Perhaps that's the case, but I've never met our ancestor myself, so I cannot judge."
The only one who had seen the Titan Ape might be his granddaughter, Yuanen Yehui!
After a pause, he added again, "If it really is the ancestor, given his relationship with the Sea God, he probably wouldn't do anything to harm Wulin!"
Cai Yue'er suddenly interrupted the conversation and suggested, "In any case, we should first contact Wulin and inform him of the situation, just to be on the safe side!"
Her statement received unanimous agreement from everyone...
Thus, the former used the communicator to dial Tang Wulin...
Only a few seconds passed before the call was answered...
Tang Wulin's deep voice came from the other side, "I am Tang Wulin!"
Cai Yue'er also sensed that something was amiss and lowered her voice, "Wulin, how are things on your end?"
Tang Wulin glanced at the evil Soul Master in front of him and replied, "Elder Cai, we are currently positioned ahead of the Evil Soul Master Army!"
Upon hearing this statement, all the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion showed surprised expressions...
Cai Yue'er probed further, "Ahead of the Evil Soul Master Army, does that mean you're preparing an ambush?"
Tang Wulin shook his head, "No, we' are watching the Evil Soul Masters slaughter each other, waiting for their numbers to diminish to a certain extent before deciding whether to take action!"
After hearing this, the former was still somewhat baffled and said solemnly, "Wulin, if the situation isn't urgent, could you explain in detail?"
Tang Wulin seemed to think that the situation wasn't too urgent, and after organizing his thoughts, he explained, "Yes, the situation is like this, the Evil Soul Masters..."
After he finished speaking, everyone showed an expression of sudden realization...
"No wonder these Evil Soul Masters' strength has surged so dramatically, I didn't expect they obtained it by compressing their own lifespans, the Ghost Emperor really is ruthless."
"Hmm, I'm afraid they'll never know that they are just chess pieces in the hands of the Ghost Emperor, disposable at any moment!"
"Eh, ever since the Ghost Emperor broke through to God Rank, it's been troublesome, so easily using such rituals to transform the life force of evil Soul Masters into power!"
"Wait... Since these evil Soul Masters won't live much longer, doesn't that mean that if we just delay for a while, the crisis will naturally resolve itself?"
"It's not that simple, the Ghost Emperor, observing from the shadows, will definitely intervene!"
Cai Yue'er took a deep breath, "Wulin, you all must be careful, and make sure to return safely!"
Tang Wulin felt a warmth in his heart and spoke in a convincing tone, "Don't worry, Elder Cai, I will bring everyone back to the academy safe and sound. Well then, I'm going to disconnect now!"
However, Cai Yue'er stopped him, "Wait a moment..."
Tang Wulin felt puzzled, "Elder Cai, is there something else?"
Cai Yue'er reminded him very seriously, "Hmm, in fact, today a mysterious strong stranger came to the academy, seemingly with something he wishes to tell you personally. He has already gone to the Douling Empire, so you must be cautious!"
Given his unknown identity, she could only tell him to be watchful!
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin hesitated briefly, "Thank you for the reminder, Elder Cai, I'll be careful!"
Then, he disconnected the call...
...
War God Hall!
Standing beside him, a War God saluted Guan Yue with a fist, "Hall Master, all the War Gods have already set off to the federation; now it's just you and me left!"
"Shall we promptly head to the federation??"
Guan Yue shook his head, "There's no rush, the revival of the War God Hall's operations still needs someone to direct!"
"Yes, Hall Master,"
The former nodded, then fell into silence...
The atmosphere in the entire space turned stifling...
Finally, Guan Yue spoke again, "Ao Rui, do you feel that I'm not qualified to be the Hall Master?"
Ao Rui, clearly the War God with a soul power rank as high as level 98!
His heart trembled slightly as he shook his head, "Of... Of course not, when Lord Chen was in office, you were the Vice Hall Master of the War God Hall, naturally the most qualified person to assume the position of Hall Master!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Yue looked deeply at the man before him, "Yet, I don't see even a hint of respect for a Hall Master in your eyes!"
Ao Rui, having his feelings exposed, replied somewhat nervously, "You're overthinking it, Hall Master, how could I possibly not respect you!"
Guan Yue closed his eyes, "You might fool others, but you can't fool me!"
The former, obviously, also desired to vie for the position of Battle God Hall's hall master, and the reason he hadn't acted yet was that most of the War Gods leaned towards himself!!
After a pause, he spoke again, "Actually, there is no need to worry, the position of Battle God Hall's hall master probably won't be long before it becomes yours!"
Ao Rui was stunned, his eyes flashing with dense confusion...
He couldn't comprehend the meaning of those words...
What did he mean that the position of the Battle God Hall's hall master would soon be his?
However, Guan Yue clearly had no intention of explaining and reopened his eyes...
"Let's go, we'll head to the federation together!"
