Chapter 2033: The Grudge between the Demon Emperor and the Ghost Emperor (Seeking Subscriptions)_1
The Demon Emperor narrowed his eyes. "Ghost Emperor, do you think just because you've reached the Limit Douluo level, I can no longer kill you?"
There are also differences between Limit Douluos!
The Ghost Emperor said coldly, "I naturally believe that the Demon Emperor has the means to kill me, but if you do so, you will definitely not end well either!"
The Demon Emperor's face darkened as he felt the intense threat in the words, "You, follow me, and kill this guy!"
Upon hearing this, bystanders like Nanali fell silent and did not choose to get involved...
Because whether they win or lose, they would offend one party!
Seeing this scene, the Ghost Emperor pursed his lips and said indifferently, "My Lord Demon Emperor, there's truly no need for us to slaughter each other!"
The Demon Emperor, as if he had heard the greatest joke, laughed coldly, "Heh... If it weren't for Nanali, I might still be under your control, right?"
"Now that it has come to this, you remember not to slaughter each other? Unless you give me a reasonable explanation, it's either your death or my demise!"
The Ghost Emperor gazed deeply at her, and the next second, his right hand burst forth with terrifying Soul Power, chopping towards his own left arm...
With a "pu" sound, the severed arm flung out, mixed with scarlet blood, and fell to the ground...
Bearing the pain, he said solemnly, "Let this be the price for what I've done to you in the past, Lord Demon Emperor. Are you satisfied now?"
Nanali and the others' pupils constricted sharply, never expecting the always domineering Ghost Emperor to do such a thing!
The Demon Emperor also had an incredulous look on her face, but the next second, she said again, "Do you think this will quench my anger?"
The Ghost Emperor looked straight at her and said word by word, "Of course, I know this won't quench your anger. So, from now on, the Holy Spirit Cult will still have you, Lord Demon Emperor, in charge. How about that?"
This was his last resort!
The Demon Emperor fell silent...
After a long while, she finally said in a cold voice, "Only this once. If I detect any more devious acts from you, I won't be so merciful!"
She thought about how the Ghost Emperor, even though he controlled her, had not done anything excessive. It was difficult to pursue the matter further.
Of course, there was no way she would trust him!
Seeing the Ghost Emperor's concession for a brief harmony, Leng Yulai asked, "Sect Leader, what exactly did you do on Soul Land this time? The opening of the Abyssal Seal also bears your handprint, doesn't it?"
Unfazed, the Ghost Emperor replied, "Indeed. I reached a consensus with the strongest creatures of the abyss. Our Holy Spirit Cult would open their seals, and in return, they would deal with forces such as the Spirit Pagoda for us."
"But this plan was thwarted by the former Tang Sect Master, Cao Zhide! Of course, he also paid the price with his death!"
The Demon Emperor snapped, "Trying to strike a deal with abyssal creatures, how foolish!!"
Abyssal creatures have at least thirty Limit Douluo-level powerhouses. Even if all the forces combined, they would not be able to match them in high-end combat strength!
The creatures simply weren't within the Holy Spirit Cult's control!
The Ghost Emperor did not get angry but calmly said, "No... The goals of the Holy Spirit Cult and the abyssal creatures are aligned. They have no reason to turn on us!"
The abyssal creatures want this plane, and the Holy Spirit Cult wants the lives of the Soul Masters!
The two do not conflict!
After pondering for a moment, Halosa spoke, "Lord Demon Emperor, I also think the Sect Leader is right. Our Holy Spirit Cult is indeed much stronger than before, but to make enemies of three countries simultaneously would be as difficult as scaling the heavens!"
"But if we cooperate with the abyssal creatures, it would be very possible!!"
The Demon Emperor remained silent...
But she realized that Leng Yulai and Halosa were almost all leaning towards the Ghost Emperor!
It was hard to guarantee that the incident of her being controlled had nothing to do with them!
...
Spirit Pagoda!
A member of the Spirit Pagoda handed the storage soul tool to Leng Yaozhu and respectfully said, "Pagoda Master, this is the storage soul tool Councilor Gu Yue asked me to give you. She said she would spend some time at Shrek Academy!"
Having anticipated this, Leng Yaozhu said indifferently, "Mmh, I see."
This little girl, she's likely to spend quite some time at Shrek Academy this time!
Gathering his courage, the Spirit Pagoda member asked, "Pagoda Master, if I may be so bold to ask, what is stored in this storage soul tool?"
Leng Yaozhu glanced at him, "Soul Beast Embryos and the Heart of the Ice God!"
The former's eyes widened in astonishment and he exclaimed, "What?? Soul Beast Embryos, in an age when soul beasts have declined, there's actually such a precious thing?"
The next second, he lowered his tone and asked, "Pagoda Master, what is this Heart of the Ice God? I have not heard of it before."
Leng Yaozhu said with a sigh, "I am also seeing it for the first time, but the Heart of the Ice God contains immense energy and is a major material for making God-Slaying Fixed soul cannonballs."
The eyes of the Spirit Pagoda member grew fervent, "God-Slaying Fixed soul cannonballs? To think that our Spirit Pagoda could have the chance to create the fourth one!!"
At that time, the position of the Spirit Pagoda on the Continent will replace the federation!
Leng Yaozhu shook her head, "Don't get excited yet. Immediately notify the Forging Masters and Soul Masters within the Spirit Pagoda to conduct a detailed analysis of this Heart of the Ice God and see what our chances are."
In fact, the Spirit Pagoda has the technology to make God-Slaying Fixed soul cannonballs, but it was forced to stop because the federation exhausted its resources!
"Yes! Pagoda Master, I will inform them right away!"
...
Dou Spirit Empire!
The daijins within the hall were all furiously discussing...
"Damn it, so much time has passed, yet our messengers sent to the Spirit Pagoda haven't returned; I fear they've met with foul play!"
"Indeed, the Spirit Pagoda must have realized it was the Dou Spirit Empire who did it, and they have retaliated against the messenger team!"
"To lay hands on people from our Dou Spirit Empire is to provoke our dignity, Your Majesty, we cannot let this matter rest!"
"But... it was we who attacked the Spirit Pagoda's team first. If this leads to war, we will likely be in the wrong,"
Xue Yuntian, as the emperor, had a volatile expression on his face...
These daijins might not know, but he was very clear about the sequence of events!
The reason the messenger team had not returned was not that the Spirit Pagoda acted ruthlessly, but that he had sent someone to assassinate them all!
To prevent them from exposing the true nature of the incident!
With this thought, he tried to appear as calm as possible, "Honorable daijins, please be quiet. I think that the Spirit Pagoda wouldn't do something so foolish. Perhaps the messenger team encountered an attack from another power on their way!"
"We must not let this incident escalate into a bigger conflict with the Spirit Pagoda!"
Such evasive words naturally couldn't fool the daijins...
They easily speculated that the death of the messenger team might be related to the emperor!
