Chapter 3592

Serpent Spear Douluo immediately cupped his fists and said, "Holy Daughter, please calm your anger. I only wanted to remind you, with no other intentions!"

Qian Renxue snorted coldly, "I hope so. I am well aware of what kind of person Xu Sheng is."

"Furthermore," she continued, "sending two guests elder to protect him was not entirely my own decision. Grandfather also mentioned that we should attract others at all costs!"

The latter statement wasn't something she made up; it came directly from Qian Dao Liu himself!

Serpent Spear Douluo bowed his head, "Yes, yes, yes. I misspoke just now, please forgive me, Holy Daughter!"

Qian Renxue waved her hand, not wanting to dwell on the matter, "Alright, I don't want to talk about this anymore. Where is Porcupine Douluo?"

Serpent Spear Douluo replied truthfully, "Holy Daughter, that fellow Citun left yesterday, traveling at top speed back to the Worship Hall to relay your instructions to the Grand Elder!"

The matter regarding abyssal creatures must be extremely important; otherwise, the former wouldn't have emphasized it repeatedly!

Qian Renxue pondered for a moment, "Is that so? I originally had something else for him to do, but since he is not here, let it be!"

Serpent Spear Douluo's eyes lit up as he patted his chest, "Holy Daughter, if there's anything, you can tell me. That Citun guy is impetuous, not as efficient as I am."

Qian Renxue shrugged her shoulders, "But aren't you supposed to stay by my side, Serpent Spear Douluo? If you're willing to go, it's not impossible!"

Instantly, the former's back turned ice-cold, and he immediately dismissed the idea...

If he left, the Holy Daughter would be without a powerful protector by her side. Should any mishap occur, the Titled Douluo in the imperial palace could pose a threat to her life at any time!

"Holy Daughter, I was just joking. Your safety is of utmost importance compared to other matters!"

"By the way, there is something I haven't reported to you. The assassination attempt on Prince Xue Beng has failed!"

Qian Renxue showed no emotion, "Mhm, I am already aware of it. Xue Ye told me himself!"

"It seems, although he does not care about Xue Beng's fate on the surface, he values it greatly in secret!"

Otherwise, he wouldn't have tested her attitude toward Xue Beng multiple times!

Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Those incompetents, failing to kill even a child!"

Outwardly, however, he affirmed resolutely, "Holy Daughter, rest assured, the next time we act, we will eliminate this Xue Beng and not let him interfere with your plans!"

"There's no need. After this failed assassination, Xue Xing will surely guard Xue Beng very closely. Finding an opportunity will not be easy!"

Serpent Spear Douluo felt frustrated, "Then, Holy Daughter, do you mean to let that Xue Beng grow unchecked?"

Qian Renxue sneered, "Grow? As long as I am the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, he will have no chance to reveal his talent!"

"In other words, as long as my identity is not exposed, Xue Beng will never dare to show himself before others!"

Serpent Spear Douluo had an epiphany, "You are truly wise, Holy Daughter. I trust your judgment, and I will have people cease the assassination of Xue Beng!"

That Xue Beng is nothing compared to the Holy Daughter!

As long as Xue Ye isn't a fool, he wouldn't replace the latter with the former!

"Wait, while we shouldn't kill him, we must constantly pressure him, preferably making him feel as if someone is always out to kill him."

This way, even if Xue Beng is talented, he will fade into obscurity due to fear and worry.

...

Upon hearing these words, Wu Changkong's icy gaze shifted toward them...

"All you War Gods, trying to recruit the Shrek Seven Monsters in the presence of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, am I to interpret this as War God Hall provoking Shrek Academy?"

This was his warning!

The leading War God replied calmly, "Of course not, we are simply astounded by and recognize the talent of the Shrek Seven Monsters without any intention of provocation."

"After all, no power would refuse such outstanding Soul Masters!"

Yue Zhengyu stood up with color returning to his face, "This senior flatters us, but we have no intention of leaving Shrek Academy!"

He ended the topic with a tone that suggested a polite refusal...

Just then, Gu Yue, who learned the situation on the battlefield, came over and said, "With the support of the three major powers, the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters have been eradicated! But it is not certain whether there are any remnants in the vicinity!"

These War Gods glanced at each other, seeming to sense that the atmosphere was not quite right, and that they were not very welcome!

Taking a deep breath, the leading War God said, "Since that is the case, leave this matter to War God Hall, we will inspect the surroundings. You all take your time to chat!"

The rest of the War Gods nodded and then led the War God Hall's army away...

Xie Xie gave a thumbs-up at this, "Say what you want, but these War Gods from War God Hall have pretty sharp eyes!"

Yue Zhengyu, joining in, said, "Agreed, but it's all thanks to Ye Hui and me intimidating them with our Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"

After saying so, he didn't forget to throw Yuanen Yehui a flirtatious wink...

However, the latter ignored him entirely and asked everyone present, "Now that the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters have been eradicated, what should we do next?"

Xu Xiaoyan spoke in a playful tone, "Probably find a comfortable place to catch up, I'm dead tired right now!"

Xie Xie, with a mischievous grin, moved closer, "Tired for sure, because little Xiao Yan, you were managing a Limit Douluo Level opponent. Where does it hurt? Let me rub it for you..."

But before he could say more, Yue Zhengyu's hand landed heavily on his shoulder, his voice fierce, "Xiao Yan is my girlfriend; I don't need you to worry about that!"

Xie Xie curled his lip, "Tch, look who was making eyes at Ye Hui just a moment ago!"

Including Gu Yue, the rest of the group all covered their mouths and lightly chuckled...

No one had expected Xie Xie to be such a jealous type, quick to retaliate for the grievances he suffered after the battle!

At this time, Gu Yue turned her gaze to Wu Changkong and inquired, "Teacher Wu, indeed it's been a long time since I've seen everyone, can we have a chat?"

Her words may have seemed somewhat distant, but it couldn't be helped; she now represented not an inner court student of Shrek, but the Young Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda!

Hearing this, Wu Changkong looked up at the sky and calmly said, "I'll give you two hours. After catching up, return to the academy."

Xu Xiaoyan lamented, "Ah, just two hours? That's not even enough for us to have a meal together!"

Wu Changkong simply glanced at her and said indifferently, "A meal? If I'm not mistaken, Gu Yue should also return to the Spirit Pagoda to report back!"

With that, he left straight away...

Seeing him go, Xu Xiaoyan muttered under her breath, "Teacher Wu really doesn't spare anyone's feelings. Ever since becoming an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, he's been cold as ice!"

Gu Yue just smiled slightly, "On this point, Teacher Wu is correct; I do have to return to the Spirit Pagoda."

"Let's use the time we have to catch up then!"
