Spirit Pagoda!
Gu Yuena stared at the ferocious beasts before her, speaking solemnly, "According to the news we've just received, the Evil Soul Master Army of the Douling Empire has been successfully eradicated!!"
Upon hearing her words, the ferocious beasts couldn't help but feel puzzled...
They asked one after another, "If the Evil Soul Master Army has been eradicated, Your Highness, why do you look so grave?"
"Yeah, with the Evil Soul Master Army gone, the Ghost Emperor shouldn't be able to affect our Soul Land anymore. This should be good news!"
"Could it be that this matter isn't as simple as it seems???"
Bi Ji and Di Tian didn't ask, but they were equally curious...
Gu Yuena glanced at them and said again, "But... the imperial palace was attacked by the Ghost Emperor due to the absence of any powerful defenders, leading to the fall of Emperor Xue Yuntian of the Douling Empire!!!"
"Simply put, the Douling Empire is now headless and has completely lost control!!"
At this revelation, the ferocious beasts couldn't help but cry out in surprise...
"What in the world are those human Soul Masters thinking? Knowing full well that the target of the Evil Soul Master is Xue Yuntian, how could they not station one or two powerful figures in the imperial palace? Is this not akin to sending him to his death?"
"Yeah, to think that humans are so clever, yet they don't even know this much!!"
"Hmph, I think the people from Shrek Academy and the Xingluo Empire did it on purpose. As long as Xue Yuntian dies at the hands of the Evil Soul Master, they can then do whatever they want with the Douling Empire!!"
"Thinking about it, it indeed seems like something humans would do!!"
Di Tian narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. If these humans knew that the target of the Evil Soul Master was Xue Yuntian, yet they still dispatched all their strong ones!"
"They must have anticipated the Ghost Emperor taking advantage of the situation and made their preparations accordingly!"
Bi Ji obviously agreed, echoing, "Yes, Xue Yuntian is the emperor after all. Without his permission, the powerful figures of the Douling Empire wouldn't possibly have all been deployed!!"
Gu Yuena pursed her lips, "You're thinking the same as I am. If Xue Yuntian knew that he was going to be killed by the Evil Soul Master, then what was his purpose in doing all this?"
Di Tian and Bi Ji looked at each other, then shook their heads involuntarily...
They couldn't figure it out either...
Gu Yuena shook her head, "We are in Soul Land; this is happening in the Douling Empire. It's strange enough that we can think this through!!"
"But what the Spirit Pagoda needs to pay most attention to right now is the federation!"
"Their Chairman has suddenly fallen to an attack by the Evil Soul Master, and they are likely to point the finger at us!"
For instance, assuming that the Spirit Pagoda has covertly collaborated with the Evil Soul Master...
Di Tian also realized something, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent, "Then, Your Highness, what should we do?? Should we take this opportunity to wage war on the federation??"
"Having lost their Chairman, the federation must be in utter chaos right now; it's a good opportunity!!"
Before Gu Yuena could speak, Bi Ji interjected, "Di Tian, you are underestimating the federation. Even without the God-Slaying Level soul-guided missiles, they still have the War Gods of the Battle God Hall!"
"Especially since a few days ago, the Battle God Hall's hallmaster temporarily assumed the role of the federation's Chairman. With him in charge, the federation will return to order in a short time!!"
Gu Yuena agreed, "Bi Ji is right. Even without the God-Slaying Level soul-guided missiles, the federation is still a formidable force!!"
"Therefore, to completely destroy it, we must ensure foolproof success!!"
Di Tian calmed down as well, "Sorry, Your Highness, I was too hasty!"
His desire to destroy the federation was probably the strongest among all the ferocious beasts...
Gu Yuena didn't say much more, simply giving a light smile, "Di Tian, as long as you understand, that's good enough!!"
There was a pause before he turned his gaze to Bi Ji, "By the way, Bi Ji, has the Titan Ape returned to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform?"
The latter was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting the other party to suddenly ask this question...
She immediately replied, "My Lord, I have not been surveilling the Ten Thousand Beast Platform recently. Perhaps… I should go check now?"
Since the last time she left the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, she had given up on monitoring it...
As for why, it was naturally because of her Lord's trust in the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Ape!!
Gu Yuena showed a look of surprise, but it was just a casual question and meant nothing special...
"If you don't know, then never mind. If the Titan Ape returns to the Spirit Pagoda, it should not be able to escape my perception!!"
Her own spiritual power was already enough to envelop the entire Spirit Pagoda!
Although she did not know how the Titan Ape managed to leave the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, if it tried to enter, it would surely be detected!
Bi Ji nodded slightly, "I understand, my Lord."
Gu Yuena had no intention of continuing the conversation and waved her hand, "All right, that's all I wanted to tell you. You may all leave now!"
With that said, the ferocious beasts present, including Di Tian, began to leave one after the other…
When only Gu Yuena was left, she no longer opted to keep up appearances, her recent smile disappearing instantly, revealing a trace of helplessness…
"Wulin, during this time, you should also be almost back to Soul Land, right?"
…
The federation!!
Guan Yue, who also received the situation of the Douling Empire...
Could not help but exclaim, "What? Emperor Xue Yuntian of the Douling Empire is dead? And the evil Soul Masters have even taken over the imperial palace; this is worse than imagined!"
The War God beside her replied with a grave face, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen. With the death of Xue Yuntian, the Douling Empire will indeed be thrown into chaos!!"
Guan Yue nodded and sighed, "Yes, but the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion must have also tried their best to annihilate the Evil Soul Master Army. It's just that we didn't expect the Ghost Emperor to choose a sneak attack and be too late to defend, leading to the loss of the imperial palace."
The former clenched her fists and said again, "Hall Master, if the Douling Empire falls under the control of the evil Soul Masters, our federation's situation will be even grimmer!"
We're already at our wits' end because of the Spirit Pagoda, and now this has happened!
Guan Yue pursed her lips, "There's no helping it. To break out of the current situation, we would need to manufacture God-Slaying Level soul-guided missiles as soon as possible!"
However, to accomplish it would take at least several months!!
Hearing this, the War God felt an intense reluctance, "Then, Hall Master, are we just going to watch as the Douling Empire becomes a nest for the evil Soul Masters?? There are tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of Soul Masters there!!"
"If they were all converted into evil Soul Masters, the whole world would be plunged into living hell!!"
Guan Yue looked at him deeply, "I know what you're saying, but... we must prioritize the federation's situation right now!!"
If the federation falls, then the evil Soul Masters can truly do whatever they want!!!
We absolutely cannot place our hopes on other forces!!!
