Spirit Pagoda!
The Brain Domain Laboratory of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform!
A member of the Spirit Pagoda responsible for communication found Gu Yue, who was discussing with other research staff...
He interrupted her, "Young Tower Master, excuse the interruption, but I have something to report to you!"
Although Gu Yue was somewhat puzzled, she nodded her head...
After the two had walked to the side, she then inquired, "Let's talk here. What is it that you need to report to me?"
The Spirit Pagoda member glanced at the surrounding research staff and whispered, "Young Tower Master, actually... recently, quite a few Soul Masters have ignored our warnings and still went to the forbidden area. To date, dozens of casualties have occurred!"
Of course, after it happened, the Spirit Pagoda covered it up with lightning speed...
Gu Yue's pupils shrank, "What? When did this happen?"
The member pondered for a moment, "About half a month ago!"
Gu Yue was panicked, "And the other Soul Masters..."
To think that something like this had happened so long ago and she had known nothing about it!
And if this kind of news were to spread, it would greatly affect the usage of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform and cause her plans to deviate!
The former seemed to have noticed her concern and reassured her, "Young Tower Master, rest assured, no one knows except for those involved Soul Masters and their relatives. We have covered up this matter according to the instructions of the Pagoda Master!"
Gu Yue's expression finally eased a bit as she said,
"I understand. You may leave now!"
"Yes!"
After nodding his head, he turned and left...
After he had left, she sighed, "I was slightly careless, and such a big problem occurred. It must be related to the Titan Ape and the Azure Oxpython!"
However, there was no choice. She had made a promise after all—if any Soul Master were to break into the forbidden area, they would be left to their own devices.
Just that... dozens dying all at once, if not for the Pagoda Master timely covering up the situation, the number of Soul Masters coming to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform would have greatly decreased!
Just as she was preparing to deal with the matter, Qiangu Qingfeng suddenly appeared behind her and said, quite indifferently, "Gu Yue, was that Spirit Pagoda member looking for you with something important?"
Gu Yue took a deep breath, "It's nothing important, just that the Pagoda Master sent someone to tell me that there were some issues again with the Ten Thousand Beast Platform."
Qiangu Qingfeng let out a sneer, "Really? I doubt it's that simple. Otherwise... why would there be the situation of Soul Masters falling within the Ten Thousand Beast Platform!"
A glint flashed in Gu Yue's beautiful eyes, "Vice Tower Master, your tone seems to suggest you suspect I'm involved in this matter?"
Qiangu Qingfeng replied coldly, "Don't bother calling me Vice Tower Master, I no longer have that privilege! Of course, I wouldn't dare to suspect you, the esteemed Young Tower Master!"
Last time, merely mentioning in front of Leng Yaozhu that Gu Yue had impure intentions had resulted in a scolding!
This showed that in Leng Yaozhu's heart, Gu Yue's status in the Spirit Pagoda surpassed anyone else's!
Even if he truly found evidence that Gu Yue had meddled with the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, it would be meaningless.
Suppressing the displeasure in her heart, Gu Yue said without changing her expression, "Vice Tower Master, if you simply wish to be sarcastic with me, I won't keep you company!"
With that said, she ignored the former and left the Brain Domain Laboratory...
Qiangu Qingfeng watched as Gu Yue walked away and thought to himself, "Gu Yue... although I don't know what your ultimate objective is, as long as it harms the Soul Masters, I will definitely not stand by idly!"
The rest of the research staff naturally witnessed this scene and began to whisper among themselves...
"What actually happened? It seems like the Young Pavilion Master and the Vice Tower Master had an argument!"
"Nonsense, didn't you notice something off about the way they were speaking to each other?"
"I've rarely seen the Vice Tower Master so angry before. In my memory, his demeanor has always been very gentle…"
"Shh... Stop talking, and go about your business. The Vice Tower Master is still furious; it wouldn't be good if he took it out on us!"
…
The Ten Thousand Beast Platform!
Upon entering the core area, Gu Yue observed the Titan Ape and the Azure Oxpython with a cold gaze!
"Titan Ape, Azure Oxpython, why did you slaughter so many Soul Masters? Don't you know this will bring great trouble to the Spirit Pagoda?"
"Moreover, it could even reveal the secrets of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform!"
Upon hearing this, the Titan Ape became displeased and retorted, "You have the nerve to question us, when you had promised not to let Soul Masters intrude into the forbidden zone. What happened? There are more intruders than ever!"
"Furthermore, we decide how to deal with those Soul Masters who break into the core area!"
The Azure Oxpython, expressionless, added, "Gu Yue, if it was simply an intrusion, we would normally only intimidate them, but those Soul Masters have slaughtered dozens of soul beasts!!"
"Would you let them slaughter so recklessly, if you were in our place?"
Gu Yue fell silent all of a sudden…
Indeed, if it were her, she probably wouldn't let those Soul Masters off either!
Still, she clenched her teeth and said, "But you should have consulted with me first. If it weren't for the Spirit Pagoda's master sealing the news, I'm afraid no one would ever use the Ten Thousand Beast Platform again!"
The Azure Oxpython and the Titan Ape glanced at each other, seemingly agreeing to some extent...
The former took a deep breath, "We take responsibility for this matter, but in the end, we cannot completely prevent Soul Masters from breaking into the core area!"
They also didn't dare to offend her lightly now!
After all, they had the responsibility of guarding the Ten Thousand Beast Platform and couldn't roam freely in the human world!
Gu Yue didn't expect the two to choose to step back, and she swallowed the words she had prepared to say…
She changed her tone, "You're right, I will order the Spirit Pagoda to tell the Soul Masters that the forbidden area is unstable and accidents can easily occur. That way, nobody should infiltrate the forbidden area again!!"
"If occasionally one or two Soul Masters enter, try not to take action whenever possible. All of this is for the revival of the Soul Beast Clan."
The Azure Oxpython nodded slightly, "Alright, as long as they do not harm the soul beasts living in the core area, my younger brother and I will spare their lives!"
The Titan Ape frowned, "But what if they spread the word about this?"
Gu Yue looked directly into their eyes and said calmly, "Both of your strengths are not inferior to that of an Ultimate Douluo, so erasing a Soul Master's memory shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
Compared to losing their lives, a slight impact on the Spirit Sea is much better!!
…
Sea God's Pavilion!
Cai Yue'er said with a surprised face, "I never expected that the ancestor of the Yuan En Clan was actually the Titan Ape; no wonder everyone chose it as their Martial Soul!"
Leng Yaozhu nodded, "Indeed, the Titan Ape is not inferior to a God Level Martial Soul in terms of quality! However, why is her second Martial Soul the Fallen Angel, which seems to have no relation to the Titan Ape at all?"
Yuan En Zhentian, upon hearing this, sighed, "Ye Hui's second Martial Soul is essentially that of an evil Soul Master, most likely inherited from Ye Hui's mother!!"
"That's right, just as the Elders have thought, Ye Hui's mother is an evil Soul Master!"
