Qiangu Dongfeng: This kid has beef with Shrek, I've got his back

Xuesha was a Blood Shadow Envoy of the Holy Spirit Sect, in charge of the entire Eastsea City branch.

Seeing this, Lin Tian immediately understood: besides the branch, Xuesha had built a private territory for himself on Blood Island. Public was public, private was private; using public resources to develop his own private forces was quite interesting.

Behind the identity token was a blood-red token filled with baleful blood energy, with the characters "Blood Master" carved upon it.

This token could control all the Blood Slave and Blood Servant on the entire Blood Island. The lifeblood of all these people was locked within the token, and they were also under special restraints left behind by Xuesha.

As long as the Blood Token was in hand, Xuesha could make everyone die without a burial place with a single thought. However, all of this now belonged to him, and everything on Blood Island was his for the taking.

Xuesha was over a hundred years old, and he had managed this Blood Island for a full sixty years.

There were Three Great Blood Fiend Envoys on Blood Island, all of whom were Spirit Douluo. This was the highest combat force Xuesha had cultivated. The commander-in-chief, Blood Butcher, even had a cultivation level as high as level 86, serving as the supreme commander of the entire Blood Island.

There were also twelve Spirit Sage, who served as minor supervisors on the island.

Below the level of Spirit Sage, there were two hundred Spirit Emperor, Spirit King, and other ranked spirit masters.

As for the remaining low-level Blood Servant and thousands of Blood Slave, these Blood Slave were merely consumables on Blood Island, responsible for providing blood to the Blood Servant and Xuesha; if they died, they would just go and capture more.

Xuesha did not capture people on Douluo Continent, but rather on Tiandou Continent not far away—where human lives were worthless and everyone was a slave.

His island was situated perfectly between Tiandou Continent and Douluo Continent, making it an ideal location.

It was Lin Tian's first time encountering so many slaves, and he did not know how to handle them for the time being, but with so many subordinates under Xuesha, they would surely be useful.

After this experience, he had transformed from a penniless boy into someone with a solid foundation, and it felt incredibly satisfying.

Blood Fiend was truly worthy of being called an angel investor; when the opportunity arose in the future, he would certainly burn a stick of incense for him.

Beyond these two most important identity tokens and control plates, there were various legacies that made Lin Tian extremely envious: an exaggerated amount of rare metals, as well as treasures containing high-level energy and soul power, most of which were edible.

This haul was simply delightful. After organizing these items, Lin Tian tucked them back into his storage Soul Tool and kept it on his person.

Finally, there was Blood Fiend's communicator. It was a level-eight Soul Tool with many encrypted numbers on it, clearly the contact method for the Holy Spirit Sect.

Now that his Martial Soul had been corrupted, Blood Fiend was thoroughly dead, he had taken all the loot, and the entire Blood Island was now in his pocket, but how was he to deal with the Holy Spirit Sect? This was a problem.

And how was he to get back? Lin Tian fell into deep thought regarding this.

Just at this moment, far away in the Heavenly Spirit Pagoda of Shrek City, Han Tianyi and Qiangu Dongfeng received messages simultaneously: Han Tianyi's message was sent by Han Tianxin, while Qiangu Dongfeng's message was sent by a spy from the Qiangu Lineage planted around Han Tianxin.

At this moment, Han Tianyi and Leng Yaozhu were studying the development direction of the Spirit Pagoda for the Leng Family lineage.

Upon receiving Han Tianxin's message, Han Tianyi couldn't help but be stunned: "Eastsea City, Twin Martial Souls, Body Martial Soul Evil Soul Master..."

Leng Yaozhu asked: "What is it, Elder Han?"

"Nothing." Han Tianyi smiled and shook his head. "A small matter. That girl Tianxin discovered a genius with Twin Martial Souls in Proud Arrival City, a small city subordinate to Eastsea City. Moreover, it is a genius with Twin Martial Souls of the Body Martial Soul variety. She wanted to recruit him, but ended up encountering an Evil Soul Master who snatched him away."

After Han Tianyi finished speaking, a sharp glint immediately flashed in Leng Yaozhu's eyes. She was currently competing against the Qiangu Lineage.

What she lacked was talent.

As long as they were a genius, she wanted to recruit them into the Leng Family.

Twin Martial Souls combined with a Body Martial Soul—this was an aptitude destined to produce a top-tier powerhouse. She never expected Han Tianxin to be the one to discover it.

Han Tianxin belonged to the lineage of Elder Han, and Elder Han was one with the Leng Family. By that logic, didn't that make them one of her own?

This was a good thing.

Leng Yaozhu pressed further:

"Has that Evil Soul Master been found yet?"

"The sea is vast; how is one to search it? However, that girl Tianxin provided me with a general range, asking me to utilize the Spirit Pagoda's soul-guided satellites and combine them with my Super Brain Domain to help her search. That girl just can't stop thinking about that genius!"

"It's not just her, Elder Han. I felt moved the moment I heard about it as well. It has been so many years since a Twin Martial Souls user has appeared. A genius with Twin Martial Souls, and a Body Martial Soul at that—after a second awakening, the power would be even more extraordinary. As long as they are nurtured properly, becoming a Super Douluo is a certainty, and they might even be able to challenge the realm of a Limit Douluo."

"That is true. What? Are you interested in that kid, too?"

"Mm, Elder Han, are you not?"

"I don't have much interest. Although his martial soul is a Body Martial Soul, it is not of the spiritual attribute, and his other Starfish Martial Soul is not of the spiritual attribute either. I have no interest in cultivating him. However, since that girl Tianxin wants to cultivate him vigorously, and you are also interested, it wouldn't hurt for this old man to lend a hand. After all, I also possess a Body Martial Soul and have some insights in that regard."

"Then Elder Han, please hurry and help Tianxin check. If we are any later, that little guy might run into trouble."

"Very well. It has been a long time since I've had to use my brain at such high intensity; now is a perfect time to give it a workout."

"Then let us search within the vast ocean."

Han Tianyi's body instantly erupted with a powerful aura, the presence of the strongest spiritual-attribute soul master fully revealed.

Meanwhile, inside the office of Qiangu Dongfeng, it was pitch black.

His fingers tapped rhythmically against the desk, producing a "thud-thud" sound as he muttered to himself:

"Twin Martial Souls, body blood, Han Tianxin, Han Tianyi... Twin Martial Souls are nothing special, but if they fall into your hands, that becomes a problem. You only said you would join the Spirit Pagoda, not which faction. Whoever finds this brat first, he belongs to them."

That fellow Han Tianxin found Han Tianyi and demanded he activate his Brain Martial Soul to assist in the search. The ocean is vast, but with Han Tianyi's abilities, he would surely find them within a day!

"But..."

Qiangu Dongfeng chuckled and dialed a mysterious number: "Why search when you can simply ask?"

A moment later, a cackling, eerie laugh came from the other end of the line: "Oh? Did I see that correctly? The great Pagoda Master Qiangu is actually taking the initiative to contact us Evil Soul Masters? How rare, how rare!"

Ghost Emperor was currently busy with "corporate culture." Even as he chatted with Qiangu Dongfeng, his hands did not stop, and shrill, miserable screams rose and fell in the background.

Qiangu Dongfeng frowned, his face still etched with anger as he spoke: "Ghost Emperor, how is your Holy Spirit Sect handling things? It is one thing to be snatching people everywhere, but how dare you snatch my people?"
