Xingluo Empire!
Gui Mei frowned as he looked at Xu Sheng, who was veering off course, and said, "Xu Sheng, where are you going? That's not the way to the Xingluo Empire!"
They had already left the Tiandou Empire and were currently on their way to the Xingluo Empire. However, Xu Sheng was not following the normal route!
Xu Sheng glanced at Gui Mei and replied truthfully, "Elder Gui, I know. But by taking this path, we can reach the Xingluo Empire more quickly!"
To his surprise, Gui Mei's expression turned to confusion, "Reach the Xingluo Empire more quickly? You have never left the Tiandou Empire, how could you possibly know the way?"
After all, Xu Sheng was not even ten years old; he definitely hadn't had the chance to leave the Tiandou Empire!
Of course, what was more important was that the Martial Soul Hall was thoroughly familiar with the routes between the various empires but was unaware of this shortcut!
Xu Sheng fell silent for a moment before chuckling, "Elder Gui, I just happened to have come here before and discovered this shortcut?"
Gui Mei absolutely did not believe him, watching him with an icy gaze, "Xu Sheng, your lies are full of holes!"
"As soon as you joined the Martial Soul Hall, His Holiness the Pope ordered me to conduct a comprehensive investigation into your background!"
"It turned out that you have never left Holy Soul Village and have always lived there!"
From this fact alone, Xu Sheng's recent statement was clearly a lie!
After a pause, Gui Mei spoke again, "So, what exactly is your purpose in coming to the Xingluo Empire?"
He had begun to suspect that Xu Sheng's trip to the Xingluo Empire involved a secret unknown to others!
And furthermore, it was related to many matters!
Hearing this, Xu Sheng also knew that he could no longer conceal his true intentions, his gaze slowly becoming serious…
"Elder Gui guessed correctly. I have indeed come to the Xingluo Empire with my own secret."
"That is, to find a solution to the abyssal creatures!"
Gui Mei pursed his lips, "A solution to the abyssal creatures? Are you joking?"
Although the national strength of the Xingluo Empire was stronger than that of the Tiandou Empire, it was not nearly as formidable as the Martial Soul Hall in terms of Soul Master strength!
The Martial Soul Hall itself was unable to deal with abyssal creatures, so he thought it highly unlikely for the Xingluo Empire to succeed!
Xu Sheng knew this reason sounded far-fetched and thus replied immediately, "Elder Gui, you should know there is a place beyond the Xingluo Empire called Sea God's Island."
"There, perhaps, we can find the help we need!"
The pupils of Gui Mei suddenly constricted...
No wonder Xu Sheng insisted on going to the Xingluo Empire. The true destination, it turned out, was Sea God's Island!
"I advise you to give up that thought, the conflict between Sea God's Island and the Martial Soul Hall is not something you can imagine!"
"Should you be exposed, death is certain!"
Don't forget, on Sea God's Island resides that High Priest of Limit Douluo Level!
With her power over the seas, even the Grand Elder of the Worship Hall, who is also a Limit Douluo, might not be able to defeat her!
Xu Sheng chuckled lightly, "You can rest assured on that point, Elder Gui. That High Priest should not take action against me!"
After crossing over to this timeline, the High Priest must have sensed it by now!
If I'm not guessing wrong, she has probably anticipated my arrival!
Xue Ye looked straight into Ning Fengzhi's eyes and said word by word, "Sect Master Ning, although that's what you say, what if the royal household can't find evidence to condemn the Martial Soul Hall?"
Since the Martial Soul Hall dared to take action, they would definitely not leave behind any evidence!
Ning Fengzhi was at a loss for words, "This... Emperor Xue Ye's remarks are not without reason, what do you plan to do next?"
Don't even consider whether it was the work of Martial Soul Hall!
The primary objective is to protect the remaining princes, otherwise, the same thing could still happen!
Xue Ye answered without hesitation, "I plan to have all princes go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, where there are many Soul Masters, and safety can be guaranteed."
Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up, "Emperor Xue Ye, does this include Qing He among these princes?"
Xue Ye shook his head to deny, "Not so, for Qing He, I have other plans!!"
Even if all other princes encountered trouble, he didn't wish for Xue Qinghe to experience the slightest mishap!
Ning Fengzhi tactfully refrained from asking further, "It seems that Emperor Xue Ye is already well-prepared, so I won't say any more!"
However, Gu Rong, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke out, "Emperor Xue Ye, forgive my bluntness, but has the fourth prince been buried? Perhaps, I could discern something from his body!"
Although Du Gu Bo was a Titled Douluo, he had not yet reached the level of a Hyper Douluo!
This realization jolted all the Soul Masters present to awareness...
These lights were not harbingers of victory but would instead snatch away their lives!
So, they began to flee madly in all directions, trying to leave this place...
But it was all in vain!!
"What... What's happening, these beams of light, they're actually draining our blood, everyone run!!"
"Can't... can't move, what in the world is this aaaaahhhhhh!!!"
"Someone save me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die! I don't want to die!!"
In an instant, the entire scene turned extremely bloody, any Soul Master touched by the light would become pure blood and flow into a certain place...
Zhao Chong, the first to come to his senses, saw the sinister light approaching and exclaimed, "Not good, everyone retreat!!"
However, even if the people nearby reacted, it was too late to escape now!
In desperation, a Soul Ring underfoot flickered...
"Boom!!"
A terrifying golden Shock Wave spread outwards from his position, directly blasting Guo Xiaoxu and others away, out of the affected area...
He, however, was forced to bathe in the light...
Knowing that death was imminent, he no longer struggled and looked towards Guo Xiaoxu and Liang Xiaoyu, who had fallen to the ground, with complex eyes, "Tang... Tang Sect, I leave it to you!"
Having spoken, his flesh began to rot away and rapidly congealed into blood, floating up towards the sky...
Guo Xiaoxu, who had just managed to stand up, were utterly dumbfounded, rage surging in their hearts...
Everyone heard these words, but their expressions remained unchanged...
Because they had already anticipated this situation on their way here, to join forces and besiege the Holy Spirit Cult!
Tang Wulin propped up his chin, reminding, "I have no objections to this proposal, but, Council Chairman, you must also be aware that our Shrek Academy has only recently been rebuilt and it might be difficult to provide effective assistance!"
Seeing this, the Chairman immediately responded, "Hall Master Tang, I am naturally aware of this, but having a few Elders from Sea God Pavilion come to assist should not be an issue, right?"
