Hearing this, Chen Xinjie's face relaxed slightly, but he still said coldly, "The reason Yun Ming sacrificed himself is because he had Shrek Academy and Shrek City behind him. Therefore, I will not allow any War God in the War God Hall to slander him!"
Seeing this, the assembled War Gods all spoke up, "Yes, Hall Master!"
It was a moment of careless talk, and they hadn't expected this to enrage their usually calm Hall Master!
Guan Yue asked softly, "Hall Master... should we send a War God to Shrek Academy to express our condolences?"
Chen Xinjie shook his head, "No need! Since Shrek Academy waited so long to release the news, it's clear they don't want their students to be plunged into grief over Yun Ming's death."
"If we send someone now, it will only have the opposite effect!"
Guan Yue pursed her lips, "The Hall Master speaks wisely. It was my lack of consideration."
How could he not have thought of this? It was only because of the relationship with Long Yeyue that he had made the suggestion...
Chen Xinjie's beautiful eyes flickered, changing the subject, "By the way, Guan Yue, how is the task I gave you going?"
A while ago, he had instructed Guan Yue to negotiate with that legion, promising to help within the War God Hall's capabilities in order to win them over.
Guan Yue's expression turned uglier, "This... Hall Master, it seems that the legion isn't interested in our help and they already have ample funds! Enough to pay for the thousands of Spirit Souls they bought from the Spirit Pagoda!"
Obviously, the other party already knew their intentions. The reason they didn't accept the help was to make a statement.
They could be allies of the War God Hall, but would never join under its banner!
Chen Xinjie didn't seem surprised and after some thought, he spoke again, "Guan Yue, continue to follow up on this matter. If the other side needs anything, provide as much help as possible!"
"If they don't need help, then keep an eye on the entire legion's movements!"
Guan Yue nodded slightly, "Yes, Hall Master!"
After all was said and done, Chen Xinjie waved his hand, "Alright, you may all leave now!"
With those words, Guan Yue and all the other War Gods quickly left...
It wasn't until the room was empty that a few traces of regret appeared in Chen Xinjie's eyes, and he murmured, "Yun Ming, who would have thought? You, with such strength, would die in such an aggrieved manner! But I guess, this is what makes us, Shrek Academy, strong!"
If the War God Hall had suffered the same attack, he, as the Hall Master, would likely have made the same decision...
...
Councilor Gu Yue stepped out of the Star Dou Cabin, letting out a deep breath...
The female member of the Spirit Pagoda who had been waiting quietly said respectfully, "Congratulations, Councilor Gu Yue, on yet another victory!"
Although she couldn't see what was happening inside the Star Dou Cabin, she could guess from Gu Yue's expression.
Gu Yue glanced at her and frowned slightly, "What it is the matter with you?"
She hadn't sensed the presence of the other, obviously, she had come in while Gu Yue was using the Star Dou Battle Network.
Upon hearing this, the Spirit Pagoda female member reminded, "Councilor Gu Yue, have you forgotten? Some time ago, you emphasized to keep a close watch on the Blood God Army and that Tang Wulin. If anything happened, you wanted to be informed immediately!"
Gu Yue suddenly realized, "That's right, I had forgotten. But next time, please make sure I'm fully awake before you come in!"
The female member naturally did not dare to disobey, "Yes!"
After a pause, Gu Yue's beautiful eyes sharpened, "Alright, tell me what has happened with the Blood God Army."
The female member replied, seeing the look on her face, "Not much has happened with the Blood God Army, but that Tang Wulin you asked us to keep an eye on— he..."
Gu Yue's complexion grew anxious, "Wulin? What's happened to him?"
```
Could it be that an unexpected event occurred during the days of my absence?
Sensing the peculiar tone of the former, the female member quickly consoled, "Councilor Gu Yue, don't worry, he's fine, it's just that..."
Having finished, she relayed the specific details...
After listening, Gu Yue involuntarily raised an eyebrow, "Are you saying that two women entered Wulin's room and then stayed the entire night?"
A coldness erupted from her without form...
The delicate body of the female member on the other side trembled, "No... no mistake, the Pagoda Master thought this would be significant to you, so she sent me to report!"
Gu Yue realized she had lost her composure and retracted the pressure she was releasing, calmly saying, "All right... I understand the situation now, you can go!"
The female member swallowed hard, "Yes, Councilor Gu Yue!"
Didn't the Pagoda Master say that Councilor Gu Yue is easy to get along with?
I didn't expect her to be so terrifying; next time, let someone else do the reporting!
As she watched the retreating figure, Gu Yue's expression gradually turned strange!
Although she believed that Tang Wulin would not do anything with other women behind her back, she still felt an inexplicable irritation in her heart!
Shaking her head to cast these thoughts aside, she thought, "Well, once this grand competition is over, I'll be able to return to the Blood God Army!"
...
In the abyss!
The Abyssal Emperor watched with a somber face as Emperor Mei and the Bee Emperor stood before him; he asked in an icy tone, "Emperor Mei, Bee Emperor, who gave you permission to launch an attack on the outside world? And to lose so many abyssal creatures at that!"
In his eyes, all abyssal creatures were insignificant pawns, but their actions behind his back infuriated him!"
Emperor Mei immediately bowed, explaining, "Emperor, it was not our intention to command the abyssal creatures to attack without your knowledge! It's just that..."
The Abyssal Emperor stared at her, "Just what?"
At his words, Emperor Mei couldn't utter a sentence, her gaze fiercely fixed on the Bee Emperor beside her...
This guy, didn't he say the Emperor wouldn't blame us??
The Bee Emperor clenched his teeth, explaining, "Emperor, the human that you instructed us to capture last time had left the abyss before we arrived!"
"Out of desperation, we commanded the abyssal creatures to attack behind your back, hoping to give those humans a lesson!"
"We did not dismiss you!"
The other Abyssal Emperors were sneering at all this...
For them, being gathered here was solely due to the Abyssal Emperor's might!
Otherwise, they would have killed each other and devoured one another!
The Abyssal Emperor let out a cold "hmpf," and rebuked, "Two wastes, unable to even detain a human!"
Emperor Mei and the Bee Emperor were among the strongest in the abyss and future powerful aids to contend with the human plane, so naturally, he could not lay hands on them!
However, in order to demonstrate his absolute power, he spoke again, "I will overlook this matter, but I hope this will not happen a second time, or else... death"
