Chapter 3064 Judgment_1

Although somewhat contemptuous, they chose to shut their mouths to avoid affecting the subsequent discussions...

And Gu Yuena, hearing these words, showed no change in her expression...

She calmly replied, "Gentlemen, I understand your concerns, but as the Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda, I must lead by example. How could I possibly leave the Spirit Pagoda headquarters!"

"Moreover, this matter is extremely urgent and doesn't give us much time to consider!"

These Branch Tower Masters of the Spirit Pagoda actually fear death so much!

But this is normal, after all, aside from those at the Limit Douluo Level, there are very few who can survive the bombardment of a God-Slaying soul-guided missile!

Not to mention people like them whose soul power ranks aren't exceptional!

These words, instead of steadying the emotions of those present, only intensified their inner fears...

"No, we can't stay here. I don't want to become a wronged soul under a God-Slaying soul-guided missile!"

"That's right, I am not afraid to die, but I absolutely refuse to die a meaningless death!"

"Even if the Pagoda Master gives the order to stay, I must leave; otherwise, wouldn't the federation just wipe us out in one fell swoop!"

"The Pagoda Master's unwavering spirit is admirable, but the Spirit Pagoda I manage has recently encountered some issues that require immediate attention. I must leave immediately and will not delay!"

Even already, some had stood up and were groping their way towards the doorway...

Clearly, they were determined to leave...

Seeing this scene, Gu Yuena couldn't help but sigh...

Then, her tone started to turn chilly, "Di Tian!!"

"Yes, Pagoda Master!"

Getting the hint right away, Di Tian flashed to the door, blocking everyone's way...

Instantly, a terrible pressure burst forth, carrying an air of 'come close and die'!

"The Pagoda Master hasn't said you could leave. Everyone back to your places, or face the consequences!"

All were intimidated, daring not to take another step...

However, they all turned their heads back toward Gu Yuena above, unable to restrain their loud protests, "Pagoda Master, what is the meaning of this? You're not letting us leave? Isn't this a bit too authoritarian?"

"That's right, we came here risking the situation at our branches of the Spirit Pagoda, and this is how the Pagoda Master treats us? This is deeply disappointing!"

"This is outrageous... What do you mean by this? Do you want all of us to just stay here and wait for the federation's bombardment??"

"Pagoda Master, we already made it very clear a moment ago, we need to leave the Spirit Pagoda headquarters now, and then you can say whatever you want!"

Damn it, I am just a few short steps away from the door, but that man is blocking it!

Hearing this, Gu Yuena said emotionlessly, "Gentlemen, as I said before, the federation is not going to bombard the Spirit Pagoda headquarters for the time being!"

"You are very safe staying here now!"

The crowd still showed no intention of complying!

"Pagoda Master, mere words are not proof, how can you make us believe you?"

"That's right, even if you are the Pagoda Master, you can't just expect us to risk being annihilated based on a single sentence, can you?"

"If the Pagoda Master cannot provide a convincing answer, even if I step down from my position, I will leave this place!"

Bi Ji's eyes flared with anger, "Enough, you guys, are you challenging the authority of the Pagoda Master??"

"Do you really think the Spirit Pagoda can't operate without you??"

Having said that, she was about to make a move to teach them a lesson!

Gu Yuena, seeing the former's intentions, stopped her first, "Bi Ji, stop!"

Bi Ji clenched her fists, "Pagoda Master, they are disregarding your commands, it's better to discipline them first!"

Gu Yuena furrowed her brows, "I don't want to say it a second time!"

How could even Bi Ji be causing trouble along with these people!

Bi Ji hesitated for a moment but eventually sat back down...

However, she still glared fiercely at those attempting to leave...

It was then that Gu Yuena patiently explained, "If I dare to say so, it's naturally because I have my reasons!"

"Even though the federation has already manufactured God-Slaying Level soul-guided missiles, it doesn't necessarily mean they will act against the Spirit Pagoda!"

"After all, the Douling Empire still harbors who knows how many evil Soul Masters!"

"Without the Spirit Pagoda, even if all the forces on the Soul Land were to join hands, they might not have the power to resolve these evil Soul Masters!"

Everyone was stupefied, and soon, they also understood the implications of her words...

"This... The Pagoda Master seems to have a point. Our Spirit Pagoda does gather around sixty to seventy percent of Soul Masters from the entire Soul Land. If it were destroyed, it would indeed have a tremendous impact on the overall strength of Soul Land!"

"Yes, I can't believe I didn't think of that. Should I say 'as expected of the Pagoda Master'? To have considered this far!!"

"Even so, isn't there still the Xingluo Empire? If Soul Land and the Xingluo Empire were to join forces, they might eradicate the evil Soul Masters of the Douling Empire!!"

"Give it a rest, although the Xingluo Empire has been on good terms with Soul Land in recent years, if most Soul Masters were gone, who knows if they would immediately change their attitude and take the opportunity to annex Soul Land!"

Although they still felt some fear, it was clear that their emotions were not as intense as before!

That's when Gu Yuena finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Since you think it makes sense, then please return to your positions. Next, we have even more important matters to discuss!"

"It even concerns the survival of the Spirit Pagoda!"

...

After the conclusion, watching the humans gradually disperse and leave, Bi Ji spoke with dissatisfaction, "These Branch Tower guys are really timid and afraid, even we are not afraid of being bombarded by God-Slaying Level soul cannons, what are they afraid of!"

The other ferocious beasts behind her echoed, "That's right, even if we really face the attack of a God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile, with our combined efforts, it's definitely not a problem to protect most people!"

"Cough cough, that's a bit overconfident. Do you really think a God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile is a common soul tool? Don't forget, to defend against it, the former Pavilion Master of the Sea God's Pavilion sacrificed his life!"

"Of course, but we also can't possibly sacrifice our lives for these humans, unless it's a direct command from our lord!"

Gu Yuena walked over to them and answered, "I certainly won't allow anyone to do so. There aren't many soul beasts that have survived from that era. Even if we lose these members of the Spirit Pagoda, I won't allow any harm to come to you!"

Seeing her approaching, all the ferocious beasts spoke in unison, "My lord!"

Gu Yuena nodded slightly and then commanded, "Di Tian has already acted according to my instructions just now. I will have to leave for a while too. Bi Ji, the Spirit Pagoda is in your hands!"

Bi Ji replied without hesitation, "My lord, rest assured, I will manage the Spirit Pagoda well!"
