Chapter 3238: The Final Stage_1

Seeing Gu Yuena's genuine-looking expression, Di Tian finally nodded slightly...

In a respectful tone, he said, "Yes, Your Excellency, I assure you that I will not bring up such matters again!"

Then, he turned to Bi Ji and transmitted his voice, "Bi Ji, are you satisfied now? I have formally apologized to Her Excellency, so, I hope you can let it go!"

Bi Ji had not spared him any scowls over this issue!

Hearing this, Bi Ji's mood also softened somewhat, and with crossed arms, she responded, "I'll let it slide this time, but if I catch you saying such things to Her Excellency again, don't blame me for ignoring you!"

Gu Yuena, unaware of their silent communication, clapped her hands to interrupt their conversation...

She gestured, "Alright, now that the matter is resolved, let's leave..."

But Di Tian smacked his forehead, "Oh right... I almost forgot. Your Excellency, I have already informed Tang Wulin that you have agreed to the federation's request!"

Gu Yuena's brows slightly rose, "Hmm, you did well, apart from what you said to Wulin!"

Di Tian seemed to realize something and immediately shut his mouth, no longer speaking...

Bi Ji glanced at him and then at Gu Yuena, her voice tinged with suspicion, "Apart from what you said to Tang Wulin? Your Excellency, did Di Tian do something else to upset you?"

Could there be something she was not aware of?

If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have let Di Tian go in her place to deliver the message!

Gu Yuena looked deeply at Di Tian but did not reveal anything...

Instead, she waved her hand, "It's nothing. Even if Di Tian hadn't spoken, I would have clarified things with Wulin myself!"

This time, she who always chose to escape would not run away anymore!

Bi Ji chuckled lightly, "Your Excellency, no matter what, we will always trust you completely, and we ask that you trust us too!"

She spoke these words from the heart!

Gu Yuena had no intention of dwelling on the subject and changed the topic, "Let's go; we've already wasted enough time here!"

With that, she turned decisively and left...

Bi Ji and Di Tian, seeing this, also quickly followed...

At this moment, the other ferocious beasts hiding in the shadows, who had been eavesdropping, also came out with a sense of relief...

They scratched their heads and couldn't help but say, "Seems like the boss has made up with Her Excellency, huh?"

"It seems so, but I really didn't expect the boss to take the initiative to apologize. That would've been impossible in the past!"

"What's so surprising about that? To revive the Soul Beast Clan, we need Her Excellency's help. If there were any rifts between them, it might affect future plans, but... we were hidden there; surely we haven't been discovered, right?"

"Forget it, with Her Excellency's terrifying spiritual power, she probably spotted us the moment we hid. If she didn't expose us, it was probably to save the boss from embarrassment!"

Hearing this, they felt a sudden pressure on their hearts...

It was hard to imagine what the scene would have been like if Di Tian had been aware of their presence at that time...

"Cough cough, since Her Excellency didn't say anything, let's just pretend that nothing happened today!"

...

After leaving, Gu Yuena immediately went to the soul beast research facility...

She looked at the Spirit Pagoda Members guarding the place with a stern face and inquired, "In this period, have any of you discovered suspicious individuals?"

The man at the head immediately puffed out his chest and replied, "Reporting to the Pagoda Master, we have not detected any suspicious individuals. No one without your explicit command is allowed entry!"

Gu Yuena nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, continue as such from now on. As long as there are no problems, I will provide you with some benefits that you can't refuse!"

Upon hearing these words, the members were immediately excited...

However, bound by face, they still stiffened up and said, "Podoga Master, guarding the Spirit Pagoda is our duty as members!"

Gu Yuena was well aware of their little schemes, responding with just a gentle smile before stepping inside...

It wasn't until she disappeared from their view that the members couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief...

"Who would have thought that we, the bottom members of the Spirit Pagoda, could also receive the affirmation of the Podoga Master? Today is really our lucky day!"

"Yeah, but I'm more curious about what benefits the Podoga Master will give us. I can't calm down!"

"Shh, don't talk like that. We are guarding this place not for the benefits!"

"Alright, alright, now is the time for vigilance, let's all be serious; not even a fly should be let in!!"

...

Seeing Gu Yuena enter, all the researchers in the institute stood up...

They said in unison, "Podoga Master!"

Gu Yuena gestured with her hand, indicating, "Everyone, there is no need for this, continue with your work. I'm here just to check on the progress!"

After getting permission, the researchers sat down again, continuing with their tasks...

The man in charge of supervising the progress quickly approached, with a beaming smile he said, "Podoga Master, it must have been a while since you last visited the research facility, right?"

Gu Yuena did not deny it, confirming, "Mm, I had too many things to handle recently, so my visit was delayed!"

Seeing this, he immediately praised, "Ah, Podoga Master, you have worked hard!"

Gu Yuena glanced at the surrounding researchers, countering, "Speaking of hard work, these researchers have worked much harder than me."

"Alright, enough small talk, what is the progress on the soul beast research?"

She was not here to chitchat with him!

The man's expression also became calm again, answering seriously, "Podoga Master, through our tireless research, the technology for Artificial Spirit Beasts has reached its final stage. Given the current efficiency, we can create a large number of soul beasts in a short time!!"

"Moreover, these soul beasts possess the most basic intelligence and reproductive capabilities!"

"To put it simply, once they are released into the soul beast forest, it won't be long before they rapidly multiply!!"

Gu Yuena showed a trace of surprise, "I didn't expect it has come this far already..."

It seems these researchers had not been slacking off!

The man, curious, asked, "But Podoga Master, there is one thing I don't quite understand. Why do you want to bring soul beasts back into the world? It doesn't seem to bring any benefit to the Spirit Pagoda!"

"Furthermore, if it's for the sake of Soul Rings, we already have a better substitute in Spirit Souls!"

Spirit Souls are easier to absorb and even more powerful, a perfect replacement for Soul Rings!

Gu Yuena paused for a moment, casting a complex gaze upon him...
