Di Tian extended his hand, stopping them...
Then, those golden pupils turned towards the Ghost Emperor and his entourage straight ahead, his voice cold, "I believe our legion has never offended the Holy Spirit Cult, right? Why take action against us without reason?"
Indeed, the strength of these evil Soul Masters was formidable. Should a fight really break out, it was uncertain how many of the other ferocious beasts would end up dead or injured!
If possible, it was best to avoid battle!
Hearing this, the corners of the Ghost Emperor's mouth slightly curved upwards, "Take action? No, we're merely interested in your legion. We're here on orders from the Demon Emperor himself!"
Halos, who was standing by the side, nodded in agreement, "Exactly, the development speed of this legion is extremely rapid, having approached the level of a first-rate force in a very short time! Being valued by the Demon Emperor is also an honor for you!"
"If you choose to cooperate with our Holy Spirit Cult, not only can we offer each of you an Elder-level position, but you," he added, pointing, "could assume the role of the second Vice Sect Hierarch of the Holy Spirit Cult!"
As these words fell, not only did Di Tian and others show astonished looks, but even Nanali and the other two beside him were stunned...
After all, neither the Ghost Emperor nor Halos had ever mentioned this to them!
Leng Yulai curled her lips, "Interesting, so the Demon Emperor is actually willing to put forth such a condition?"
The Dark Blood Devil clenched his fist, "Even at my peak, I was not qualified to be the second Vice Sect Hierarch, yet the leader of this legion..."
And what about it, the Vice Sect Hierarch had promised that after slaying the strong ones of this legion, I would be restored to my peak, hadn't he?
Nanali propped her chin, thinking aloud, "However... if we can really get them to join the Holy Spirit Cult, it would indeed greatly enhance our high-end combat power! We might even... directly confront Shrek Academy!"
Di Tian's golden eyes flickered, seemingly weighing something...
Seeing this, the nearby ferocious beasts immediately became anxious, afraid that Di Tian might agree to cooperate with the Holy Spirit Cult!
"Boss, the words of the Holy Spirit Cult cannot be trusted. Everyone on the Continent knows their word is as good as a fart!"
"Yeah, there's no shortage of evil Soul Masters who have wiped out our kin. If they think I'm going to work for the Holy Spirit Cult, they can dream on!"
Bi Ji furrowed her brows, "No wonder they did not attack immediately. They must know that fighting us would result in them being injured or dead! Di Tian, what should we do?"
Di Tian did not respond to them but stared at the Ghost Emperor in front of him, "This matter cannot be decided by me alone as the leader. The will of the legion members must be consulted. Doesn't the Holy Spirit Cult intend to give us some time to consider?"
The Dark Blood Devil bellowed angrily, "What? Being noticed by the Demon Emperor is an honor for your legion, and you dare to make demands!"
If it wasn't for his soul power rank dropping to level 97, far from being a match for this man before him, he would have attacked already!
Leng Yulai cast a glance at him, "Dark Blood Devil, don't forget that your strength is even less than mine now, so stop showing off!"
The Dark Blood Devil's eyes flashed with thick murderous intent, "Damn you, woman!"
Nanali spoke out, interrupting them, "Will you all stop talking nonsense! Is this the time for infighting?"
Just then, not only did the Ghost Emperor not show anger, but he also spoke calmly, "You're right, you should indeed have time to consider."
After a few seconds' pause, he continued, "However, you only have today! If you cannot provide a satisfactory answer to the Holy Spirit Cult by tomorrow, we will not be so amicable!"
"Additionally, let me remind you, if you do not wish to be destroyed, it's best not to try to leave under the cover of night! Let's go!"
Watching the Ghost Emperor turn around and leave without hesitation, doubt filled Halos's heart...
They, the Holy Spirit Cult's high-end forces, had come all this way with such fanfare, only to intimidate without taking any action?
```
But, he still didn't take the initiative to ask...
Glancing sideways at Nanali and the others, he said, "Let's go. The Sect Hierarch must have his reasons for doing this!"
Then, the group vanished within the legion...
This scene jolted the still-dazed legion members awake...
One of the members exclaimed with joy, "The people of the Holy Spirit Cult have left? Hiss... Is this the deterrent power of our leader? Even the powerful ones from the Holy Spirit Cult are scared!"
Another member rolled their eyes, "Were you deaf just now? Didn't you hear that the Holy Spirit Cult only gave us one day to consider? They will return tomorrow!"
"How could the Holy Spirit Cult just leave like this, I always feel there's something fishy! There must be some sort of scheme!"
"Yes! Not a single force that the Holy Spirit Cult has set its eyes on has been able to stay out of harm's way! Tang Sect, Spirit Pagoda, these two massive organizations are also thanks to them."
"Even Tang Sect and Spirit Pagoda can't withstand the evil Soul Masters, our newly developed legion looks to be hanging by a thread!"
"Hmph! In terms of high-end combat power, our legion is no weaker than the Holy Spirit Cult, if it really comes down to a do-or-die situation, they won't get off easily either!"
After all, their legion also had a good six or seven Hyper Douluos!!
As for the ferocious beasts that were already prepared for battle, their expressions seemed impatient...
"Hmph, I was prepared to fight to the death, yet these evil Soul Masters just left!"
"Hmph, giving us one day to consider, isn't this an outright humiliation? As if the Holy Spirit Cult has us completely figured out!"
"If it weren't for the boss not taking a stance, I would have torn them to shreds already!!"
Bi Ji looked towards the silent Di Tian next to her and hesitated, "Di Tian, by doing this..."
By doing this, they had only managed to buy the legion a day's time, with no practical effect!
If nothing unexpected occurred, their legion's surroundings should already be surrounded by evil Soul Masters!
Di Tian took a deep breath and spoke gravely, "Bi Ji, what do you think about us feigning allegiance to the Holy Spirit Cult, and once we figure out their specific location, secretly passing this information to Shrek Academy and the other forces?"
Shrek Academy and the various great forces are now watching intensely, just waiting for the location of the Holy Spirit Cult, they will definitely launch a fatal blow!
Then, breaking free from the control of the Holy Spirit Cult would be easy!
Bi Ji sighed, "But Di Tian... Will the Holy Spirit Cult really let us know their exact location? The likelihood of this plan's implementation is not high!"
She did not believe that Di Tian was unaware of the risks involved!
Di Tian looked up at the sky, "Hmm, I understand all that, but... never mind, it's nothing!"
Having said that, he closed his heavy eyes...
If the legion is gone, it can be rebuilt; after all, there are plenty of Soul Masters on the Continent. But Bi Ji and the others are like him, ferocious beasts! They absolutely cannot afford a mishap!
Suppose he put himself in her shoes, she would probably make the same choice...
