Chapter 3067: Send a Message_1

Tang Sect!

Guan Yue looked at Guo Xiaoxu who pushed the door open and entered, and couldn't help but let out a light chuckle...

"Hall Master Guo, if you've come to me proactively, I assume the issues with the Battle Soul Hall have been resolved?"

Guo Xiaoxu also sat down without any courtesies...

He sighed and said, "Well, although Xing Lan won with an absolute stance, there's still a portion of stubborn disciples who are unwilling to recognize her as the Hall Master."

"I've had individual conversations with them, and only now have I finally smoothed things over!"

Zang Xin remarked with emotion, "It must've been tough for Hall Master Guo. I imagine convincing those stubborn disciples wasn't anything easy, right?"

Guo Xiaoxu didn't deny it but affirmed, "Of course, convincing those disciples gave me quite a headache, but... after all, they were just trying to stand up for me!"

Upon hearing this, Zang Xin said in a slightly complicated tone, "Hall Master Guo, are you implying that you have objections to my decision?"

The corner of Guo Xiaoxu's mouth twitched. "Sect Leader, didn't we talk about this last time? Of course, there are objections, but it doesn't mean I can't understand!"

Did he expect to feel grateful after being stripped of his Hall Master position?

That's clearly not happening!

Zang Xin was stunned for a moment, then cleared his throat awkwardly. "Ahem, I seem to have overlooked that. However, I trust that Hall Master Guo, being the man of great magnanimity that you are, wouldn't mind these things!"

Guo Xiaoxu glanced at him. "Sect Leader, you're not like that, so stop putting on an act!"

Ever since he was stripped of his Hall Master position, both Zang Xin and Liang Xiaoyu had been extremely polite in their conversations with him, as if they owed him something!

Zang Xin pursed his lips and said in a solemn voice, "Since Hall Master Guo speaks so, then I'll drop the act!!"

"After all, it's true that the Tang Sect owes you somewhat."

Guo Xiaoxu waved his hand. "It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. Besides, the current Hall Master is Ye Xinglan. For matters concerning the Tang Sect, you should discuss them with her!"

Zang Xin immediately responded, "Alright, matters concerning the Tang Sect will be handed over to Ye Xinglan in the future!"

"However, we might still need to rely on you for the Battle Soul Hall side of things."

Guo Xiaoxu didn't refuse. "That's natural, it's also the duty of a former Hall Master like me!"

He might have lost the position of Hall Master, but he was still a person of the Tang Sect!

Right at that moment, Liang Xiaoyu also suddenly walked in...

Upon seeing the two, he said with a wistful look, "Sect Leader, Hall Master Guo, so you were here. I've been looking all over for you!"

Guo Xiaoxu looked at him, and a sudden mischievous urge emerged in his heart. He immediately rebuked coldly, "Hall Master Liang, you should not address me as Hall Master Guo anymore, lest it cause any confusion!"

Liang Xiaoyu was momentarily stunned, unsure if the other was joking.

Zang Xin abruptly reminded him, "Hall Master Liang, he's just joking. Don't make that face!"

Liang Xiaoyu came back to his senses and scratched his head, "This... is that so? You gave me a fright. I thought Hall Master Guo was genuinely displeased about being stripped of the Hall Master position!"

Perhaps the previous words were just meant to tease him...

Guo Xiaoxu curled his lips, "I was not joking at all. Hall Master Liang indeed should not call me that anymore!"

Seeing this, Zang Xin changed the subject. "Hall Master Liang, let's talk about why you came looking for us in such a hurry. Is there something important?"

Considering how urgent Liang Xiaoyu seemed, it must be no small matter!

Liang Xiaoyu's expression immediately turned serious, "Yes, that's right. I just received news from the federation that they've successfully developed a God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile!!"

Zang Xin's eyes widened in shock, exclaiming, "What?? A God-Slaying Level soul-guided missile has been developed?"

Guo Xiaoxu couldn't help but speak up, "This is indeed excellent news. With this, the Spirit Pagoda will no longer pose a threat!"

Liang Xiaoyu sighed, "That may be true, but things are not going as smoothly as we hoped!"

Zang Xin expressed his confusion, "Hall Master Liang, why the sigh? Could it be that you think we shouldn't use God-slaying soul-guided missiles to bombard the Spirit Pagoda?"

"Such thoughts could very well cause the Tang Sect to pay a price as well!"

Seeing this, Liang Xiaoyu explained, "Sect Leader, I am well aware of that, so I don't pity the Spirit Pagoda!"

"But if the Spirit Pagoda were really to be wiped out, can the major powers of Soul Land really assure they can cope with the multitude of evil Soul Masters from the Douling Empire?"

Zang Xin instinctively replied, "This… Of course, that won't be a problem. Shrek Academy has many powerful individuals. Those transformed evil Soul Masters cannot possibly each reach the level of a Titled Douluo, they're simply not worth mentioning!"

Liang Xiaoyu did not rush to contradict but instead looked straight at him, "Sect Leader, is that really the case?"

Zang Xin was momentarily at a loss for words…

Guo Xiaoxu, standing beside them, interjected, "Sect Leader, I'm afraid that without the Spirit Pagoda, we really won't be able to completely eradicate the evil Soul Masters of the Douling Empire!"

"Using God-slaying soul-guided missiles to destroy the Spirit Pagoda first is not a wise choice!!"

"At the very least, we should wait until after the evil Soul Masters have been exterminated!"

"Does Shrek Academy know about this??"

Liang Xiaoyu shook his head, "I fear they are not aware. The Spirit Pagoda only shared the news with the Tang Sect!"

Zang Xin stroked his chin, pondering, "That's strange. Logically, such news should be told to Shrek Academy first, then to us at the Tang Sect!"

"Hall Master Guan probably doesn't want the news to leak, to prevent it from reaching the ears of the Spirit Pagoda!!"

Guo Xiaoxu spoke again, "In my opinion, the Spirit Pagoda probably already knows and is fearlessly confident. Otherwise, they would have already evacuated entirely!"

"However, whether the Spirit Pagoda knows or not, we should inform the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion first!!"

Zang Xin and Liang Xiaoyu looked at each other, both agreeing on this point!

"Then there's no time to lose, we must set out for Shrek Academy immediately!!"

Inside the imperial palace of the Douling Empire!

A evil Soul Master bowed down and said with a fist in hand, "Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, every Soul Master within the Douling Empire that doesn't belong to the Holy Spirit Cult has been completely eliminated!!"

The corners of the Ghost Emperor's mouth curled into a cold smile, "Very well, it seems that converting you all into evil Soul Masters was not useless!"

Upon hearing this, the latter did not stint his praise, "All thanks to you, Sect Hierarch, for transforming us into evil Soul Masters. Otherwise, we could have spent our entire lives without ever gaining such immense power!"

These Soul Masters of the Douling Empire were inherently weak, and even with diligent cultivation, they might never breakthrough to the level of Soul King!

But after being transformed into evil Soul Masters, just by absorbing a few Soul Masters, they had broken through to Soul Sage!

Such a terrifying pace of cultivation!

For this reason, he was willing to obey the former's orders and become a member of the Holy Spirit Cult!!!

The other evil Soul Masters had also tasted this sweetness, hence they couldn't extricate themselves!
