Chapter 1373: Do Not Wish to Be Stabbed in the Back by Comrades (Please Subscribe)_1

On the other side, Yuanen Yehui, who was waiting in the office, expressed her surprise upon seeing Xu Sheng step in, "Teacher Xu, aren't you an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion? Don't you need to join the other Elders in thoroughly inspecting evil Soul Masters?"

Because her Martial Soul was the special Fallen Angel, she didn't need to go to the square for inspection!

The reason she couldn't possibly be an evil Soul Master had to do with some secretive relationship with the Academy!

Seeing this, Xu Sheng chuckled, "The inspection is finished. From morning until now, we've probably slaughtered several hundred evil Soul Masters."

He had carefully sensed earlier that there was no aura of evil Soul Masters within Shrek Academy, most likely all of them had been rooted out!

Hearing this number, Yuanen Yehui's beautiful eyes flickered, feeling a numbness wash over her brain...

Within the prestigious Shrek Academy, to think that there were several hundred evil Soul Masters hiding, and they had been undetected for so long!

If they hadn't carried out the search today, they would still be in the dark!

Shaking her head to put these matters out of her mind, she looked at Xu Sheng with hopeful eyes, "Teacher Xu, now that the issue with the evil Soul Masters is resolved, could you take me to obtain my Soul Ring?"

Compared to the slaughtering of evil Soul Masters, she was more focused on her fifth Soul Ring!

After all, if she succeeded this time, she would be able to continue absorbing soul skills from hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings!

Hearing her words, Xu Sheng pursed his lips slightly, then patiently said, "Yehui, have you really considered absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring for your fifth Soul Ring?"

Even Tang San, back in his Soul King Realm, couldn't possibly have absorbed a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, and now Yuanen Yehui intended to do so, with frighteningly low chances of success!

And once one's body explodes, there's practically no hope of survival!

Yuanen Yehui nodded her head, saying earnestly, "Teacher Xu, I've thought it over carefully, please help me."

After speaking, she bowed deeply…

Xu Sheng didn't ask any further, instead saying with a sigh, "Well, alright, but for you to just absorb a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring would definitely lead to your body exploding, let's first go to the auction house to collect some Immortal Herbs!"

If they could find suitable Immortal Herbs to alleviate the pressure from a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, it could also increase the success rate a bit!

Yuanen Yehui's face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Teacher Xu."

After a pause, she pulled out her storage soul tool and handed it to Xu Sheng, "By the way, Teacher Xu, this is all my..."

Before she could finish, Xu Sheng interrupted with a chuckle, "As a teacher, how could I take money from a student?"

With that, he affectionately ruffled her head...

Under his touch, Yuanen Yehui quietly bowed her head...

Internally she mused, "Teacher Xu, you're so kind..."

But he must be like this with everyone...

And then there's Teacher Shen...

With these thoughts, she felt a faint sense of loss in her heart...

…

On the other side, in the top room of the Holy Spirit Cult...

The room showed the Holy Spirit Cult's Elders standing on both sides around a woman sitting in the master seat, whose face couldn't be seen clearly; their gazes filled with traces of fear...

Suddenly, Halos spoke out, breaking the silence, "Demon Emperor, all of our evil Soul Masters sent to Shrek Academy have been exterminated! They are probably fully prepared for war now!"

"If it continues like this, it will be difficult for us to obtain firsthand information from Shrek Academy, which isn't a good thing!"

One of the Four Great Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Dark Blood Devil, said coldly, "The Vice Sect Hierarch is right. Furthermore, Shrek Academy has significantly increased the difficulty in recruiting students, making it virtually impossible for ordinary evil Soul Masters to infiltrate!"

Next to her, the "Darkness Phoenix," one of the Four Great Kings, Leng Yulai spoke with a cold voice, "In my opinion, the killing of the Dark Hummingbird by the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion has led to our Holy Spirit Cult being inferior in high-end combat strength compared to Shrek Academy. The plan needs to be delayed!"

The Ghost Emperor's expression turned grave as he said, "Indeed, the Dark Hummingbird was also counted as our Holy Spirit Cult's top combat power. We indeed need to extend the timeframe for our plan and take the opportunity to cultivate high-end combat power!"

"What do you think, Demon Emperor?"

The so-called cultivation naturally referred to the various bizarre methods of the Holy Spirit Cult!

After a while, the woman known as the "Demon Emperor" finally spoke in an icy and bone-chilling tone, "The plan can be delayed, but... we cannot let Shrek Academy think that the Holy Spirit Cult fears them. Order those evil Soul Masters scattered everywhere to start taking action!"

These ordinary evil Soul Masters were, in their eyes, just pawns that could be sent to their deaths at any time. As long as it could weaken Shrek Academy's strength, whatever the number that died would be worth it!

Upon hearing this sentence, everyone present responded in unison, "Yes, Demon Emperor!"

However, just then, the woman's body gradually began to emit a terrifying jet-black aura, and the oppressive force she radiated continued to rise...

Suddenly, the entire room was filled with a heavy sense of suffocation...

Although her strength was formidable, for this reason, she was easily affected by her own emotions and the external environment!

Seeing this, the Ghost Emperor, with the pupils of his eyes flickering slightly behind his mask, quickly took out medicine from his storage soul tool and carefully handed it over to her...

After she took the medicine, she coughed a few times, "Cough... cough..."

Before the eyes, her overwhelming aura gradually returned to calm...

Halos, observing this, spoke softly, "Demon Emperor, we shall take our leave first."

With that, everyone except for the Ghost Emperor turned and left the room...

Immediately afterward, Leng Yulai spoke with a grave face, "The Demon Emperor is now extremely reliant on drugs. If it were not for the Sect Hierarch constantly by her side, it is very possible she might lose control!"

The Dark Blood Devil nodded in agreement, "Indeed, with the Demon Emperor's strength, if she were to completely lose control, aside from that individual in the Sea God's Pavilion, I doubt anyone could withstand her!"

Halos glanced sideways at Leng Yulai and said indifferently, "Instead of talking about this, it would be better to think about how to make a breakthrough. Leng Yulai, how long have you been stuck at level 97 now?"

Leng Yulai's expression darkened as he stared at the other, "Vice Sect Hierarch, are you mocking me with that statement?"

Halos replied expressionlessly, "I am not in the mood for that. Now, Nanali, come with me."

After speaking, he walked directly ahead...

Nanali's pupils suddenly shrank as if she guessed something. Biting her thin lips, she still stepped forward and followed...

When she saw Halos stop, she tried to speak as calmly as possible, "Vice Sect Hierarch, do you have something to tell me?"

Halos gazed meaningfully at Nanali, his voice cold, "You may be able to deceive others, but not me. The Dark Hummingbird being slain, you must be involved in this as well, right?"

With the temperament of those from the Sea God's Pavilion, how could they ruthlessly kill the Dark Hummingbird, one of the Holy Spirit Cult's Four Great Kings, in such a hasty manner?

They would at least leave him alive until they obtained the information they needed!

Nanali's face turned slightly panicked, and she feigned composure as she said, "Vice Sect Hierarch, I do not understand what you mean..."

Halos let out a cold "Hmph," "Whether you do not understand or will not admit, you know in your heart. However, you did indeed do the right thing. If we let the Dark Hummingbird fall into the hands of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, our entire plan would possibly be exposed!"

"But afterward, I do not wish to be stabbed in the back by a companion!"

Nanali lowered her head slightly and remained silent...

Was this... a warning to herself?
