"The world says that the current Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda, Qiangu Mingyue, is a once-in-a-generation genius."
"Though you haven't achieved much in your Soul Power cultivation—ha! 'Haven't achieved much.' It seems the world was fooled by your disguise after all!"
At that, Zang Xin suddenly sucked in a sharp breath. "It looks like you're confident you can pull this off. Qiangu Mingyue, what exactly are you after?!"
He stared at Ming Yue warily, his Martial Soul, the Affectionate Sword, already gripped in his hand!
Seeing this, Cao Dezhi, whose hand was clasped in his, cautiously summoned his own Martial Soul, the Heartless Sword.
The tip of the Heartless Sword pressed against the tip of Zang Xin's Affectionate Sword, ready to enter the Martial Soul Fusion Skill at any moment!
"Hehehe. Even I didn't know that, in the eyes of you worldly folk, this Tower Master was such a person. How interesting. How very interesting."
Unable to resist, Ming Yue clapped his hands and chuckled. Then he quickly changed tack and shook his head.
"Most people are foolish. But that's precisely why it proves this Tower Master's plan is right."
With a sigh that was hard to interpret, Ming Yue looked at the two Martial Souls touching one another.
"I have to say, Amorous Douluo, your imagination is quite rich."
"With such an interesting little husband by your side, I'm sure the road to the underworld won't be lonely for Heartless Douluo or the people of the Tang Sect."
With that, he gave a signal. Led by Qiangu Dieting and Snake Emperor Douluo, the Spirit Pagoda's Douluos instantly launched their attack!
Under the full-force suppression and encirclement of two Limit Douluos, the Tang Sect's own Limit Douluo quickly fell into a disadvantage.
And he wasn't the only one. Zang Xin, Cao Dezhi, and the other Super and Peak Douluos were all brutally suppressed by the Spirit Pagoda's Super and Peak Douluos. Some were even used by Leng Yaozhu as whetstones.
Standing in the air, Ming Yue watched the Tang Sect fall further and further behind. Suddenly, he sensed two surges of energy whose powerful auras had already surpassed those of Limit Douluos.
"Just as I thought. Those two sacrificial dogs are here, too!" Thoughtfully summoning Void Archives, Ming Yue raised a hand and clenched it.
A replica of Judgment of Shamash appeared in an instant. He swallowed two pills that converted Soul Power into a special energy!
Ming Yue flashed forward. As a cross-shaped sword beam slashed through the air, he cut the Tang Sect's Limit Douluo—who had been preparing to fight Qiangu Dieting and Snake Emperor Douluo to the death—into four pieces!
"Tower Master?!" x2
Ming Yue's sudden attack left the two stunned. Before they could ask anything, he snapped his fingers.
Two special Soul Guidance devices floated in front of them.
"Save your questions. These are upgraded Soul Guidance devices that can connect to the barriers outside."
"You two, fly to the top of the barrier right now and keep feeding Soul Power into these devices."
"Leave things here to me."
His eyes fixed on the spot where the energy fluctuations were growing ever stronger, Ming Yue issued his orders.
"...Yes! We obey the Tower Master's command!" x2
They exchanged a glance and took the devices. Qiangu Dieting and Snake Emperor Douluo vanished from the spot in an instant.
Naturally, both sides, locked in battle below, saw it happen.
"Qiangu Mingyue! It's too late to call for reinforcements now! Those two lords have already awakened!"
"It's a shame about Elder Yu, but you invaders and the Spirit Pagoda will pay for what you've done!"
Zang Xin was the one leading the Martial Soul Fusion that he and Cao Dezhi were performing.
Holding two swords, he used Soul Power to amplify his voice and shouted after breaking free of the encirclement, supported by several Peak Douluos under Leng Yaozhu's command.
"Heh. Just two brainless, beast-betraying simps."
Ming Yue glanced at them scornfully and swallowed another strange, specially made pill.
Just then, two booming roars rang out from the hillside behind them!
As two surges of Soul Power, tinged with divinity, surged forth, a hulking man with bulging muscles and a thick coat of hair appeared abruptly in the air above them.
Beside him was a slender young man with a slightly feminine face.
"Great Ancestors!" x2
Zang Xin and Cao Dezhi fought off another wave of attacks from the Spirit Pagoda's Douluos, then could no longer hold on and dropped out of their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
"Was it you, boy, who woke me? And what's going on here?"
The deep voice rumbled like thunder as Tai Tan asked in a gravelly tone.
"Who will explain what's going on here?"
After surveying the scene, Niu Tian turned his gaze to the pale-faced Zang Xin and Cao Dezhi and asked in a grave voice.
At last, the old monsters who could stand up for them had arrived. Zang Xin immediately shook off the disadvantage he'd been suffering. With an aggrieved, resentful tone, he quickly explained the whole situation to the two beasts.
"...How dare you! You actually dared to bully the Tang Sect! What on earth did that little brat Dai Yuhao inherit back then?!"
Tai Tan's booming rebuke was followed by an overwhelmingly powerful aura erupting around him!
"You little bastard! You're the one who led this, aren't you? Tell me! How do you want to die?!"
His Soul Power, tinged with a faint divinity, swept across the area. Tai Tan quickly locked his gaze and crushing aura onto Ming Yue!
"You're so young, yet so calculating—and so murderous. It seems I can't let you live, boy."
Niu Tian's gaze sharpened as he sized Ming Yue up, his expression turning cold.
"Your Tower Master has seen plenty of pet dogs, but never dogs like you—simps, tool dogs, beast traitors, and so full of yourselves. This is the first time."
"How very interesting. Don't you think this Tower Master is right?"
Yet despite the divine-official-level pressure from the two beasts, Ming Yue felt not the slightest pressure.
Instead, he calmly looked back at them, his unhurried words dealing ton after ton of real damage!
"..." x2
"..." xn
As Ming Yue's words fell, silence descended over the scene.
Everyone was puzzled by what he meant by "beast traitor," but they understood words like "simp" and "tool dog" all too well.
So, for a moment, they were filled with nothing but shock and admiration!
After all, the Tower Master dared to verbally attack two experts of such strength!
He was truly the Spirit Pagoda's greatest role model!
Of course, that was only how the Spirit Pagoda's side saw it!
Among the Tang Sect's high-ranking Douluos, those who knew a little about their two ancestors' background were now drenched in cold sweat!
As they feared the two ancestors might snap and decide to slaughter everyone, they all silently added another label to Ming Yue: "crazy."
