Meanwhile, every node of the Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device began to emit faint blue light spots, steadily accumulating towards the launch port of the soul cannonball...
The Titled Douluo looked at Marshal Juzi and said gravely, "Marshal Juzi, the Soul Power of these Soul Masters is quite weak, and it will take a considerable amount of time just to charge!"
Juzi nodded slightly, murmuring softly, "Hmm! Did they do as I instructed at the imperial palace?"
The existence of a Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device absolutely must not be discovered by other empires or leaked out, otherwise...
It wouldn't be excessive for all the Soul Masters on the Continent to come and attack the Sun-Moon Empire!
The Titled Douluo's eyes hardened as he said sternly, "Marshal Juzi, rest assured, we have followed your instructions and found a Soul Master skilled in imitation to temporarily replace you; there should be no exposure!"
Juzi breathed a sigh of relief and, pursing her thin lips, ordered, "That's good. The four of you, quickly seal off the four corners of the Soul Master Troop, not allowing any Soul Master to leave!"
"Once these Soul Masters have finished charging the Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device, it will be their time to die!"
The four Titled Douluo bowed and said in unison, "Understood!"
The next moment, they vanished from the spot...
Only then did Juzi's beautiful eyes look towards the clear sky above, thinking to herself, "If I do this, I'm afraid I'm going against the will of that God, but I no longer have the luxury of choice!"
If I don't use this Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device, everything I've done will be in vain...
She could not tolerate the unexpected happening!! Even if it would cost the lives of millions!!
......
Divine Realm!
Xu Sheng's dark eyes peered down at Juzi, his expression showing a trace of displeasure...
This woman had actually ignored his warning!
Brazenly using a wide-range killing Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device!
Feeling Xu Sheng's mood was off, Qian Renxue beside him asked with concern, "Xu Sheng, what's wrong??"
Xu Sheng's words carried a touch of coldness, "I previously descended to the Lower Realm and warned this woman, telling her to prohibit the use of Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Devices, but now it seems she has forgotten everything I said!"
If both empires were indeed wiped out by this Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device, as the ruler of the Divine Realm, it would definitely be his responsibility to deal with the aftermath...
Resurrecting millions or tens of millions of people was not a simple matter even for him!
Qian Renxue's eyes grew serious, "Can't you simply obliterate this woman then?"
Though her personality was kind and gentle, it only covered the sharpness and ruthlessness she once had...
Xu Sheng lightly lifted Qian Renxue's hair, speaking somewhat helplessly, "Ren Xue, have you really not noticed Qian Yu's actions in the Lower Realm all these years?"
Qian Renxue's cheeks flushed slightly, "Isn't it because I was worried about you..."
Xu Sheng smiled, "Alright, alright, then after seeing all this you should understand!"
With that, he waved his hand and the Power of Creation instantly formed a screen in front of them, displaying everything about Qian Yu and Juzi...
After watching, Qian Renxue spoke thoughtfully, "So that's it. Are you worried about Qian Yu?"
Xu Sheng nodded slightly and frowned, "Yes! That boy knows this Juzi's character, but he still holds back because of their relationship! If I were to slay her for him, what do you think would happen?"
If it were him back in the day, he would have already steeled his heart and cut down such a woman...
Qian Renxue blinked her amber eyes playfully, "Become enemies?"
Xu Sheng tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Enemies? Qian Yu's talent is indeed not bad, but to think he can defeat me, his father, now—that's still a long way off!"
Qian Renxue leaned gently against Xu Sheng's chest, speaking tenderly, "Then let's wait for Qian Yu to resolve this dilemma himself, after all, isn't it easy for you to resurrect these deceased Soul Masters?"
Xu Sheng smiled helplessly. "Fine, let's just consider it making up for all the years I've owed that kid!"
Now was not the time for him to appear, but it wouldn't be much longer!
...
Inside the Sea God's Pavilion!
Xuan Zi stroked his beard, his murky eyes observing Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao, and nodded, "Since you've both agreed, from now on, you two are members of the Sea God's Pavilion!"
Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao said in unison, "Yes, Elder Xuan!"
Qian Yu sighed silently in his heart. Although he was reluctant to doubt Xuan Zi, the purpose behind his decision was indeed very troubling!
Just as everyone was about to discuss, the door of the Sea God's Pavilion suddenly echoed with urgent knocks...
"Tap tap tap..."
Xuan Zi's gaze then turned toward the door. "Come in!" he said.
An inner court student walked in briskly and reported respectfully, "Elder Xuan, the students responsible for surveying the two great empires have sent back their messages!"
At this statement, all the members of the Sea God's Pavilion showed a touch of curiosity in their eyes...
As Xuan Zi's word "Speak" rang out...
The inner court student began, "It seems that the Sun-Moon Empire's Lie Yang and Kuang Feng, both Hyper Douluos, are not satisfied with a woman as their ruler and each wishes to proclaim themselves emperor!"
He too hadn't believed this at first, but the facts were as such...
Xian Lin'er's beautiful eyes sparkled. "Does that mean the Sun-Moon Empire's Marshal Ju Zi has been betrayed?"
Doesn't this mean there's still a chance to prevent the unification of the continent?
Xuan Ziwen's eyes showed a trace of emotion as he shook his head. "Ju Zi, she planned everything but failed to anticipate her subordinates' betrayal..."
Yan Shaozhe stroked his chin, pondering. "Then perhaps we can take advantage of this to reassemble the scattered Soul Master Troop..."
Tang Wutong pursed her lips and said softly, "This is a blessing in disguise, at least unification hasn't been achieved."
Suddenly, a thunderous "Buzz!" resounded!
A terrifying ripple instantly swept through the inside of the Sea God's Pavilion and spread far into the distance...
All members of the Sea God's Pavilion who felt this power experienced a suffocating sensation!
Xuan Zi, sitting at the head, took a deep breath, astonished. "What power is that? It even makes my heart flutter!"
Compared with that power, even as an Ultimate Douluo, he felt insignificant!
Xuan Ziwen was somewhat dazed. "What exactly is this power? It's so strong!"
He had never felt such a sense of oppression even with a level 9 soul tool...
Xian Lin'er wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said with dread, "Under this pressure, I can hardly breathe!"
As all the members of the Sea God's Pavilion looked on with bewildered faces, Qian Yu's light golden-colored eyes suddenly narrowed, and he thought to himself, "That's... the Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device I gave to Ju Zi!"
Other than a god, only a Tenth-grade Soul Guidance Device capable of destroying nations could generate such power!
If she had activated such a thing, it meant that Ju Zi had no other choice after the split of the elite Soul Master Troops of the Sun-Moon Empire!
He could see right through Ju Zi's actions! That was to utterly destroy both the Xingluo Empire and the Sun-Moon Empire!!
To achieve the unification of the continent by other means!!
