Tang Yinmeng was somewhat angry. In her heart, both the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy were symbols of justice.
But now, they're doing this.
The sudden collapse of her faith was something she found hard to accept.
Looking at Tang Yinmeng's expression, Lan Muzi sighed softly and said, "Actually, the academy and the Tang Sect were forced into this situation. If it weren't for those short-sighted guys in the Federation, the academy wouldn't be in this predicament."
"What does this have to do with the Federation?" Tang Yinmeng asked, frowning.
Lan Muzi sighed softly and said, "Alas! As you know, the conflict between the Federation and Shrek Academy has become increasingly serious over the years. But what you see is only the surface. The real situation is even more serious than you think. Especially after Xia Yi displayed his talent Divine Craftsman in Heaven Dou City half a year ago, the Federation became even more unscrupulous. Some members of parliament even proposed that the Federal Government control the number of students admitted to the Shrek Academy. Although the proposal was not passed, this was only the first test. It won't be long before there is a second test."
Lan Muzi glanced in Xia Yi and Gu Yue's direction and said, "If something happens to Xia Yi, the academy and Tang Sect will be confident in pushing Tang Wulin to the position of Divine Craftsman. At that time, if we act a little closer to the Star Luo Continent, the Federal Government will have to beg us. I don't think the Federal Government wants the next Divine Craftsman to appear on the Star Luo Continent."
In recent years, the relationship between the Federation and Shrek Academy and Tang Sect has become increasingly strained.
Even with Ya Li's intervention, the fact that she couldn't bring Wu Zhangkong back from Ming City is a good example of this.
Shrek Academy is now in dire need of proving itself.
Lan Muzi is not only Long Yeyue's disciple, but also the designated next head of the Sea God Pavilion Master.
Long Yeyue intended to mentor him, so he knows a lot of things.
He knew more about the plan targeting Xia Yi and Gu Yue than even Cai Yue'er did.
However, he was just casually mentioning it to Tang Yinmeng.
He did not tell Tang Yinmeng the specific details.
He didn't want Tang Yinmeng to think he was a cold-blooded person.
Lan Muzi still remembered what Long Yeyue had told him, "Those who do great things don't concern themselves with trifles. A true strong person's heart should be like a great tree. The more one yearns for the light at the top, the deeper one's roots must extend downwards, into the soil, into the Abyss of darkness. If one cannot endure the darkness, then one does not deserve to enjoy the light."
Tang Yinmeng looked at Lan Muzi. She knew Lan Muzi's status at the Shrek Academy and that she must know a lot, but she just didn't want to say it in detail.
"In any case, I believe that Brother Lan has his reasons for whatever he does." Tang Yinmeng didn't ask any more questions, but just held Lan Muzi's arm tightly.
Lan Muzi used her Spiritual Power to cover him and Tang Yinmeng.
His Spiritual Power is very strong, and he is only one step away from the Spirit Domain Realm.
Unless one possesses the Spiritual Power of the late-stage Spirit Domain Realm, it is impossible for anyone to eavesdrop on his conversation with Tang Yinmeng without his knowledge.
On this ship, there wasn't even a single person at the early stage of the Spirit Domain Realm Spirit Domain Realm, let alone someone at the late stage.
So even in a crowded environment, he wasn't worried that anyone would hear them.
Little did he know, his conversation with Tang Yinmeng had already been overheard.
The moment he released his Spiritual Power, the Demon Empress and the lurking Ferocious Beast had already locked onto them.
"I thought only our Holy Spirit Cult had ill intentions, but it turns out every organization has its own ulterior motives, hehe." The Demon Empress chuckled, glancing at Xia Yi and Gu Yue, his smile growing even brighter.
"They're trying to scheme against me, why are you laughing so happily?" Xia Yi rolled her eyes.
Before he could think further, the person in charge of the Star Luo Empire on stage suddenly picked up the microphone and spoke.
"Welcome everyone to tonight's banquet. Hello, I am Sima Lanxiao, the Minister of Foreign Affairs from the Star Luo Continent Empire of the Star Luo Empire. It's a pleasure to see so many good friends from all walks of life on the Douluo Continent. Tonight, let's drink until we drop! Tonight, we will have some games. We will select the best-dressed man and woman, the most handsome man and woman, and the pair with the most beautiful dance moves. They will all receive prizes from our Star Luo Empire."
Sima Lanxiao was a tall, middle-aged man with handsome features and blond hair. His voice was magnetic and very captivating. His words immediately brought the already lively atmosphere of the room to a climax.
"Come on, let's go have some fun too." Gu Yue glanced at the Demon Empress and pulled Xia Yi into the crowd.
"I don't know how," Xia Yi said somewhat awkwardly, looking at the men and women around her who were freely expressing themselves.
"If you don't know how, then we should play even more. Come on, put your hands on my waist and move with me." Hearing that Xia Yi didn't know how, Gu Yue became even more interested. She pulled Xia Yi's right hand and placed it on her waist, then took Xia Yi's left hand and started moving.
A force naturally flowed from her hands, causing Xia Yi's body to move.
Although Xia Yi couldn't dance, he learned quickly and reacted fast. Although his steps were always a little slow, he was still able to keep up with Gu Yue.
Although it seemed a bit rusty, she could still jump.
"Hehe, you're learning pretty fast." Gu Yue laughed happily, and her pace gradually quickened.
"Of course, don't you know who your husband is?" Xia Yi smiled smugly, his steps becoming more practiced, and soon he no longer relied on Gu Yue.
Holding Gu Yue close, he moved in sync with Gu Yue steps to the rhythm of the music, his movements fluid and seemingly completely practiced.
"Stop being so vain!" Gu Yue rolled her eyes at Xia Yi.
Before Xia Yi could speak, Di Tian's voice suddenly rang in his and Gu Yue's minds, " My Lord, the Demon Empress has left. He went to the large ship next door, leaving with Pan Wen and Sima Lanxiao."
Two giant ships, one the Star Luo and the other the Ocean Voyager. The one Xia Yi and Gu Yue were on was the Star Luo Empire's Star Luo, and the other was the Ocean Voyager from the Douluo Continent.
Today's networking event is being held simultaneously on two giant ships.
Although the two giant ships were a kilometer apart, piloting the Mecha would only take a few minutes.
Both Pan Wen of the Federation and Sima Lanxiao of the Star Luo Empire need to travel between the two places.
But why is the Demon Empress watching them?
Xia Yi shook his head, indicating to Di Tian not to interfere.
No matter what the Demon Empress wants to do, as long as it doesn't threaten their safety, they have no obligation to stop him.
On the Ocean Voyager, after Pan Wen and Sima Lanxiao boarded the ship, Sima Lanxiao followed Pan Wen to the hall for the social event.
One of Sima Lanxiao's attendants did indeed turn around and enter the revelry.
The scene was so lively that Pan Wen didn't even notice.
The attendant quietly approached the door of the control room on the Ocean Voyager.
Someone is already here to meet you.
The person who came to meet them was none other than Lan Muzi, the Grandmaster of the Shrek Academy's Inner Court.
He didn't know when he had arrived on the Ocean Voyager.
As a password was entered, the door to the control room slowly opened.
" The Ocean Voyager is the most advanced giant ship in the Federal Government, several times more advanced than your Star Luo. Some of the Federation warships even use the same propulsion system as the Ocean Voyager. You have ten minutes to observe and record," Lan Muzi said calmly.
As he spoke, Sima Lanxiao's attendant took out a notebook and began recording the data of the Ocean Voyager liner.
Taking photos using Soul Guidance Device is prohibited here; doing so will immediately trigger an alarm. All data must be copied manually.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
Lan Muzi and Sima Lanxiao's entourage left the control room on time.
"Remember the conditions you promised us," Lan Muzi said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, we have already informed His Majesty the Emperor, and he has personally agreed," said Sima Lanxiao's attendant.
"Very good, I'll remember your words." Lan Muzi nodded, turned around, and flew back towards the Star Luo.
