They Are Mine, Mine

"This kid's Martial Soul is the Blood Body Martial Soul. Even if he drinks blood, that is merely a characteristic of his Martial Soul. With the Spirit Pagoda's endorsement, no one will define his Martial Soul as an Evil Martial Soul.

We can take this opportunity to plant a genius with an Evil Martial Soul inside the Spirit Pagoda. Once we hand him over to Qiangu Dongfeng, if this kid doesn't want to go berserk, he will have to consume massive amounts of blood, leaving him completely under our control.

Furthermore, with the talent of his Twin Martial Souls, he will soon be valued by the Spirit Pagoda and receive prioritized training. In time, he will surely become a core member of the Spirit Pagoda.

By then, he will be a Spirit Envoy of the Spirit Pagoda on the surface, while secretly serving as a Blood Shadow Envoy for our Holy Spirit Sect—a dual identity.

Even if Qiangu Dongfeng tries to play us false, we will have a new pawn at our disposal."

Underworld Emperor had hit the nail on the head. A look of admiration appeared on Demon Emperor's face, and she quickly made up her mind:

"Very well. It is time we had a positive image to whitewash our reputation, and this little guy is the perfect choice."

They never even considered the possibility of Lin Tian betraying them, because his Martial Soul was an Evil Martial Soul. As long as Lin Tian met that condition, it was enough.

He might not understand the significance of an Evil Martial Soul right now, but as he grew stronger and older, and as he came into contact with a larger and more complex world, he would realize what a tragic end awaited a Soul Master with an Evil Martial Soul once they were discovered.

"I leave this matter to you; see that it is done well. I look forward to seeing that kid climb to the upper echelons of the Spirit Pagoda, or perhaps even take control of it.

An Evil Soul Master controlling the Spirit Pagoda—that would be quite interesting."

Demon Emperor gave a wicked smile and then teleported away, leaving only Ghost Emperor and Underworld Emperor behind.

"You certainly have plenty of devious ideas."

"Naturally. Why else would I be called Ghost Emperor?

Besides, this was something Qiangu Dongfeng requested himself. In his eyes, I am nothing more than a clown who obeys his every whim. Since he made such a request, how could I possibly refuse?"

"Then how shall we send him over safely?

We'll need to put on a show, won't we?"

"What are you panicking about? Qiangu Dongfeng will arrange everything. If there is a show to be performed, he will be the one performing it. I, for one, would like to see how he intends to bring this genius with Twin Martial Souls back to the Spirit Pagoda."

With that, Ghost Emperor dialed Qiangu Dongfeng's communication device. "Pagoda Master Qiangu, long time no see."

"Cut the crap. Where is the person?"

"The person is safe for now, just unconscious.

That fellow Blood Fiend dared to offend Pagoda Master Qiangu, so I have already extracted his soul and refined his spirit."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, a look of shock appeared on Qiangu Dongfeng's face.

"Isn't this the sincerity you asked me to provide?

I have delivered."

"That wasn't necessary. He was a Title Douluo, after all—you killed him just like that."

"The Holy Spirit Sect has no shortage of Title Douluo; if I kill one, there are others to take his place."

"Well, that is true."

Qiangu Dongfeng gave an awkward laugh, feeling that Ghost Emperor was truly ruthless. He had actually forgotten that he was dealing with a vicious and depraved Evil Soul Master.

However, the thought that such a vicious existence was being held firmly in his grasp brought a sense of satisfaction to Qiangu Dongfeng. At the same time, he was quite pleased with Ghost Emperor's performance; to curry favor with him, a Title Douluo was killed without hesitation.

He did not suspect that Ghost Emperor was lying. A powerhouse of Ghost Emperor's level would not deign to lie. He was certain of this, because such trash-tier Title Douluo were no different from ants in the hands of Limit Douluo like them.

At this moment, Ghost Emperor spoke again: "I have found the person, but how to safely deliver him into your hands is something you must consider.

He was captured by Evil Soul Masters, after all. Pagoda Master Qiangu had better come up with a good script."

"What about Han Tianyi and the others..."

Qiangu Dongfeng was suddenly troubled.

"Pagoda Master Qiangu need not worry. I have already had my men install an Anti-Soul Guidance Satellite Device and an Anti-Mental Detection Device on the island.

The ocean is vast, and with these high-level countermeasures, Han Tianyi will not be able to find him. You have a few days to think over the script.

Once you have decided, I will send him back to the port of Proud Arrival City."

"That will work. Let the kid stay there for a few more days; finding someone takes time, after all.

Since Han Tianyi cannot find him, I will send my own men to search, spend some time 'finding' him, and let things take their natural course.

Oh, and don't withdraw your people. The act must be realistic. Leave Blood Fiend's corpse for me, and don't let a single one of his subordinates go. I need to kill a few people to make it credible, don't I?"

"Blood Fiend's corpse has already been eaten, but his subordinates can all be left for you."

"That will do.

Wait a moment, Pagoda Master Qiangu, Blood Fiend had quite a lot of subordinates.

This kid is a genius with Twin Martial Souls, yet I gave him to you just like that. I killed Blood Fiend, and I destroyed the entire Blood Island. Don't you think you should show some appreciation?"

As soon as Ghost Emperor said this, Qiangu Dongfeng's expression suddenly hardened: "What do you want?"

"The dark channel for the Spirit Ascension Platform of the Spirit Pagoda—add another one for my Holy Spirit Sect. We have too many people; it's not enough."

"You are going too..."

Upon hearing Ghost Emperor's request, Qiangu Dongfeng's face tightened, but just as he was about to speak, he swallowed his words.

Her eyes shimmered with a shifting light, and then she unexpectedly agreed to his request:

"This wave will not only secure Lin Tian, but also wipe out this evil force that has been running rampant in Eastsea City. Once reported, the prestige of my Spirit Pagoda will soar even higher; this is quite a good deal.

Besides, one must give a dog a treat if one wants it to wag its tail.

A dedicated line is nothing; at most, it can only add another thousand people. It is of no consequence."

Qiangu Dongfeng and Ghost Emperor were chatting quite pleasantly, and by this time, Lin Tian had also recovered.

Ghost Emperor spoke bluntly: "Kid, This Seat has paid a heavy price to secure connections for you at the Spirit Pagoda. In a few days, you will be sent back to Proud Arrival City to join the Spirit Pagoda!

In the future, you won't have to live in this dark and twisted place called the Holy Spirit Sect, but can instead grow strong under the sun. This is the sincerity our Holy Sect offers you.

As long as you don't expose your Evil Martial Soul or drink blood and kill in public, your martial soul will simply be blood; no one will ever discover it."

"What did you say?

I have already become an Evil Soul Master; can I really return to the light?"

A look of shock appeared on Lin Tian's face.

"Of course, anything is possible.

However, the price is that the legacy of Blood Fiend you just inherited—everyone on this Blood Island must die. This is your pledge of allegiance.

Leng Yulai just transmitted the basic information of Blood Island to me. There are quite a few people: three Contra-level masters, and from Soul Saint down to Soul Grand Master, there are five hundred in total. The rest are all Blood Servant and Blood Slave without cultivation.

You may take half of these cultivators with you; they will remain your men. After all, if you take them all, only ordinary people will be left to die, which lacks credibility. A few hundred Evil Soul Masters are enough."

"If only Evil Soul Masters are needed, why kill those Blood Slave?"

"Hehehe, if so many Blood Slave don't die, how can we create a visual conflict to prove how cruel we are?"

Upon hearing this, a chill ran through Lin Tian's heart, and his expression turned cold.

As expected, Evil Soul Masters are all animals.

He remembered that in the Holy Spirit Sect, you could be wild, arrogant, kill people, and do anything at all.

The only thing you could not be was incompetent.

He seemed to have some utility value now, which meant, He could be a little more reckless now.

"What you say makes some sense, but—I refuse!"

"Good, hmm?

What did you say?"

Ghost Emperor seemed to have heard the most incredible thing; Lin Tian actually dared to refuse his order?

"I don't care what kind of deal you made with others.

But I killed Blood Fiend, so his people are mine.

Everything on this island is mine; they are all my blood bags."

Lin Tian stared at him with scarlet eyes, his face twisted in a ferocious sneer!

"By what right do you point fingers at my property?"
