Chapter 1777: The Future of Humanity (Please Subscribe)_1
Xu Sheng naturally noticed their actions, and his expression chilled slightly, thinking, "What are you doing? Are you preparing to make a move against me?"
He had not pursued these Old Demons for secretly using Life Force and Destruction Force to cultivate and extend their lives, which was already very merciful. However, he hadn't expected that they would actually consider attacking him!
Especially that Detestable Demon, whose intent to kill him was already filling his mind...
Old Demon Greed, with a complex expression, said, "Your Excellency, we have no intention of attacking you. After all, you are a God from the Divine Realm; your power is certainly beyond our comparison!"
After a pause, he continued with a resolute tone, "However, these two forces carry the hope of humanity's future. If you insist on taking them back, then we will have no choice but to stake our lives in a fight!"
Knowing they would lose, they would not give up on Life Force and Destruction Force until the very end!
Xu Sheng looked at them and seemed to recall his own past, then spoke with approval, "You are doing quite well."
Old Demon Greed, unable to guess his superior's thoughts, asked, "Your Excellency, do you mean... you agree?"
Xu Sheng cast a calm glance at him, an aura of terrifying oppression continuously emanating from him and spreading across the entire Demon Island...
"Since you are so determined, then I have no choice but to take back the Life Force and Destruction Force by force!"
Feeling the pressure from a higher being, the hearts of all the Old Demons skipped a beat!
They originally thought their power exceeded that of a "Demigod" and that the gap between them and a true God was not too large!
Now it seems that it was all wishful thinking. After all, a God is a God, and not so easily surpassed!
The Desire Demon said solemnly, "Just this pressure makes my legs tremble... If we really fight, we are bound to lose without a doubt!"
The Nightmare Old Demon hesitated, "Boss, maybe... we should give up the Life Force and Destruction Force?"
Before he could finish, the Devouring Demon vetoed, "No, not to mention the significance of these two forces to humanity, we can't continue to survive if we lose them."
Old Demon Greed took a deep breath and shouted coldly, "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
Even against a God, as long as there is a glimmer of hope for victory, they cannot give up!
...
Spirit Pagoda!
Gu Yue sat in the chair, staring somewhat absentmindedly at the documents on the table...
She murmured, "It's been over a year, I wonder how Wulin and the others are doing."
During her time at the Spirit Pagoda, she had been living there and had not returned to Shrek Academy!
"Gu Yue, missing your little boyfriend again?"
A light voice brought Gu Yue back to reality!
She turned around, somewhat angrily, to see Leng Yaozhu, who had appeared in her office without her knowing.
She rebuked, "Lord of the Cold Tower, even if you are the Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda, you should not intrude into someone else's office so rudely, should you?"
She had already been dissatisfied with the other's behavior; it was not the first time. But every time, her counterpart would brush it off carelessly and do the same thing the next time!
Of course, this time was no exception!
True to form, Leng Yaozhu blinked her lively eyes and giggled, covering her mouth, "With such a heavy workload, I'm just worried your body can't handle it!"
She had already seen clearly how hardworking the other was during these days!
In her heart, she had already entirely regarded Gu Yue as the next Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda!
Gu Yue sighed, "Thank you for your concern, Tower Master, but this workload is nothing to me!"
Leng Yaozhu pursed her lips slightly, "Well then, as an apology, I'll let you in on a little secret!"
These words piqued Gu Yue's curiosity, and she asked, "What secret?"
The former spoke out, "Not long ago, Shrek Academy announced the new generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters. Here, take a look."
After speaking, she handed a list to Gu Yue…
Upon receiving it, Gu Yue quickly glanced over the key information on the list…
Delighted, she exclaimed, "Wulin and the others became the new Shrek Seven Monsters? That's great!"
But immediately, her face showed a hint of disappointment…
Because her own name was not on the list!
Sensing Gu Yue's reaction, Leng Yaozhu explained, "Gu Yue, there's no need to feel disappointed. With your talent, there's no question that you could've been one of the Shrek Seven Monsters!"
"However, because of your current relationship with Spirit Pagoda, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion had no choice but to cancel your qualification!"
Allowing Gu Yue, a Shrek student, to join Spirit Pagoda, was already the limit!
Gu Yue nodded slightly, "I understand, it's just a bit sentimental, that's all!"
Leng Yaozhu reached out and ruffled her hair, "By the way, those kids should have returned from their military training. If you have time, you might want to go and see them."
Gu Yue was stunned for a moment, her heart moved, but she hesitated, "But what about the other Council Members…"
Leng Yaozhu waved her hand nonchalantly, "No worries, I'll handle that. These folks have been working in Spirit Pagoda for so long, yet they're not as efficient as you who've just joined!"
If it really came down to it, there'd be no problem in replacing all the Council Members!
Gu Yue's expression softened somewhat, and she said gratefully, "Hmm, thank you, Lord of the Cold Tower. I'll visit the academy in a few days!"
"No need to be polite. After all, to me, you're like a dau...never mind, I'll be leaving now! Take care of yourself."
…
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin, who was waiting, turned to Zi Yi, who had maintained silence all this time, and said, "Zi Yi, hasn't the headquarters' support arrived yet?"
Zi Yi opened her eyes and replied, "It should be soon. This time, the headquarters has sent two Black Rank Fighters to assist us. Eliminating those evil Soul Masters shouldn't be a problem!"
Tang Wulin frowned, "But we've successfully escaped from the evil Soul Masters. I'm afraid they won't stay there!"
If the opponents took the opportunity to flee, their trip would have been in vain!
Zi Yi sighed, "If that's the case, there's nothing we can do. After all, it's beyond our control."
Huang Yi'eyes darted around, probing, "By the way, Huang San... Isn't your Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass? Why were you able to use a dragon-type Martial Soul at the abandoned factory??"
Huang Er replied irritably, "Isn't that obvious? Huang San must have Twin Martial Souls, probably due to a significant disparity in his parents' Soul Power!"
Huang Si pondered for a moment, "Based on my guess, Huang San must be young, yet his strength is so formidable. I suspect his background is not simple!"
Hearing the words 'parents', Tang Wulin's eyes filled with reminiscence, "Parents…"
Speaking of which, it had been a long time since he last went home!
No, to put it simply... he had no home anymore!
Until now, Mang Tian had not told him where his parents were or how they were!
Zi Yi, witnessing the scene, interjected, "Alright, everyone quiet down. Don't forget the Tang Sect rules that forbid probing into each other's identities!"
