The Girl Who Saved Up Money, Little Yuanen; Qiangu Dongfeng Leaves the City!
Forging Hall.
Jiang Xiu, familiar with the route, took the information card and returned to his Forging Room.
Master-level blacksmiths hold a high status in any faction. Even at the Shrek Academy, Jiang Xiu could obtain his own Forging Room by virtue of his blacksmithing skills.
And without Long Yueye and Cai Yue'er, he finally found some peace and quiet at the Shrek Academy.
Entering the Forging Room, Jiang Xiu sat down in a chair, gently stroking his chin, lost in thought.
"I imagine Ya Li will be coming to find me soon."
Two and a half years ago, after he finished his seclusion in the Golden Ancient Tree, he learned that Ya Li had not stayed at the Shrek Academy since then, but had returned to the mainland to continue saving lives.
It wasn't until half a week ago that I returned to the Shrek Academy.
Although he didn't know why, Jiang Xiu was certain that Ya Li would come to him for a way to control the Faith Power; it was just a matter of time.
There was one more thing that Jiang Xiu had been thinking about.
That was the Scorpion Tiger Inner Core in Qiangu Dongfeng's hands.
Since he defeated Qiangu Zhangting two years ago, Qiangu Dongfeng has intensified his training of Qiangu Zhangting, and even personally taught him the Qiangu Zhangting Battle Heaven Concept. He also entrusted his trusted confidants with some minor matters of the Spirit Pagoda branch.
Therefore, for two whole years, the Qiangu Dongfeng never left Shrek City even once.
If there are any problems at the Spirit Pagoda branch, it is always the branch's Tower Master comes to headquarters to report to Qiangu Dongfeng. Moreover, the Spirit Pagoda has existed for tens of thousands of years and has long since grown into a behemoth. Its internal Order is also nearly perfect, so there are basically no major events that would require Qiangu Dongfeng to leave.
This is why the Underworld Emperor has been unable to find an opportunity to strike.
After all, there are many powerful figures at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, including the patriarch of the Qiangu Family. If the Underworld Emperor were to force his way in, the chances of success would be very slim.
Shrek City also contains Shrek Academy and Tang Sect, both of which pose a threat to the Underworld Emperor.
Shaking his head slightly, Jiang Xiu suppressed this thought. The Qiangu Dongfeng would surely leave the city one day; he just needed to wait patiently.
"Ba Emperor, how's the plan to lure the Sky Ox Emperor going?" Seeing that the person he was waiting for hadn't arrived yet, Jiang Xiu activated his Monarch Domain and asked Ba Emperor about the Sky Ox Emperor.
"Reporting to the Master, the plan is progressing smoothly. After I continued to provide the Sky Ox Emperor with Abyss spiritual items, the Sky Ox Emperor's vigilance towards me has decreased."
"Even last time, the Sky Ox Emperor accompanied me to the Seventeenth Layer of the Abyss to search for Abyss treasures. I believe we can soon lure it to the 32nd Layer."
"The Ba Emperor said in a deep voice, and the 32nd Layer of the Abyss is his plane of existence, which is also where they plan to attack the Sky Ox Emperor."
"That's good. If you need any help, just let me know." Jiang Xiu nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
He definitely intends to make the Sky Ox Emperor his legion commander, and the sooner this plan is completed, the better.
"Then please the Master more bamboo-based medicinal herbs, since the Sky Ox Emperor is particularly fond of them," Ba Emperor said respectfully. Over the past two years, he had gradually figured out the Sky Ox Emperor's specific preferences, as he had an absolute fascination with bamboo.
"No problem." Jiang Xiu waved his hand and said. Compared with the Sky Ox Emperor, these things were just a drop in the ocean.
"How's Fierce Emperor doing...?"
Jiang Xiu then continued to inquire, as he also needed to address the Sky Saint Rift Halberd issue from both sides.
Just as Jiang Xiu was asking his questions, a young girl was standing slightly outside the Blacksmith's Hall.
"I've finally accumulated enough credits; I'm going to have my own Battle Armor now."
The girl stared at the hammer-shaped building before her, her fair hands clenched tightly together, and a hint of excitement flickered in her dark red eyes.
A Qingfeng swept by, ruffling her chestnut-red hair and stirring ripples in her heart.
And she was none other than Yuanen Yehui. After two years, she finally collected enough credits to hire a master-level blacksmith to forge her Battle Armor.
Of course, she was actually a little short of credits, but last night on the Shrek Academy's information website, a master-level blacksmith posted a message offering a 20% discount, and the shrewd and calculating girl naturally seized the opportunity.
However, she doesn't know the blacksmith's identity yet; it's just a temporary arrangement.
"After this, I'm afraid all the credits I've accumulated will be wiped out again." Yuanen Yehui pursed her red lips, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
But in the next moment, all that reluctance transformed into unwavering resolve.
If you lose money, you can always earn more.
But rescuing her father cannot be delayed any longer.
Battle Armor provides a huge boost to Soul Master, so she absolutely must have her own set of Battle Armor; she can always take on two more jobs in the future.
With this in mind, Yuanen Yehui strolled into the Forging Hall.
She just hoped the blacksmith was skilled, otherwise her credits would be wasted...
The Spirit Pagoda.
Inside the Tower Master's office.
"Finally, I can go out for a walk."
The Qiangu Dongfeng wind stirs the muscles and bones, and a soft sigh escapes.
Over the past two years, he has been training his grandson, and now he has finally made some progress in the Battle Heaven Concept of Qiangu Zhangting. Although it is still far from being fully mastered, at least he will no longer be easily trapped by illusions.
What happened last time was incredibly embarrassing for him.
Even at some point, rumors began Spirit Pagoda that his grandson was a warrior of illusions, which was tantamount to undermining his grandson's position as heir to the Spirit Pagoda.
"The East Sea Branch... it's time to give them a good talking-to."
Looking at the report on the table, Qiangu Dongfeng's eyes darkened, and he murmured in a low voice.
Although he didn't say anything openly about Leng Yaozhu's constant planting of her own people in different branches, he had been secretly sending people to investigate.
This time, Leng Yaozhu even wanted to support the deputy Tower Master of the East Sea Branch to replace the Tower Master he had arranged for the East Sea Branch, which he absolutely could not allow.
As a major coastal province of the East Sea Federation, the East Sea branch of the Spirit Pagoda is one of the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars of their Spirit Pagoda, holding an extremely important strategic position. Under no circumstances would he give it up so easily.
Taking advantage of his grandson's period of reflection, he planned to secretly visit the East Sea Spirit Pagoda to give it a good talking-to, and also to help the East Sea Branch's main Tower Master stabilize morale.
After gathering the documents on his desk, Qiangu Dongfeng vanished from the office in a flash, heading towards the Shrek City.
Since he planned to make a move secretly, he did not intend to bring anyone with him.
Just as the Qiangu Dongfeng burst out of the gates of Shrek City.
A pair of grey eyes and a pair of Dark Gold Dragon Pupils moved simultaneously.
Two figures swept into the space from different directions.
But they all point directly to the Qiangu Dongfeng!
