"Oh, isn't this the righteous and evil-slaying Tower Master Qiangu? What brings you to call me?"

After a moment of silence, a sinister, mocking laugh came from the other end of the Communication Soul Tool, which then abruptly changed, revealing a murderous intent.

"Want some more fish? You're not even qualified to shine my shoes!"

On the wilderness, the Ghost Emperor, along with the Four Great Dark Heavenly Kings and a group of Holy Spirit Cult elders, were resting in a sorry state.

The Ghost Emperor's face was contorted with rage, his eyes blazing with fury.

Despite the great difficulty in transporting the two God-Slayer Class Fixed Soul Guidance Shell and destroying Shrek Academy and Tang Sect Headquarters, the tens of millions of Federation citizens in Shrek City are still alive!

He didn't obtain Blood One from the Blood River God-Slaying Array he constructed!

His plan to become a god failed!

How could he not be furious!

Inside the Spirit Pagoda Master's office, the Eternal Pagoda Master listened to the Ghost Emperor's low roar with a furrowed brow, his voice instantly turning cold.

"Ghost Emperor, don't blame this on Tower Master. Tower Master 've already helped you transport the God-Slayer Class Fixed Soul Guidance Shell, and didn't your plan to destroy Shrek Academy and Tang Sect Headquarters succeed?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of frustration flashed in the Ghost Emperor's eyes. What he wanted were the souls and lifeblood of those nearly ten million living beings!

At this moment, the sound of the Qiangu Dongfeng continued to resound.

"Besides, you haven't fulfilled your Tower Master to let Long Yeyue and Shrek Academy be blown up together, and I haven't even Tower Master with you yet!"

Hearing this, the Ghost Emperor felt even more aggrieved.

Little did he know that Long Yeyue was so irresponsible. When Shrek Academy was facing a crisis, she actually ran away. She was even worse than the Sea God Pavilion Master from ten thousand years ago. Moreover, Long Yeyue's speed surprised even him.

"Speak, what do you want with me?" The Ghost Emperor suppressed his chaotic thoughts and said coldly.

He no longer needs the Qiangu Dongfeng), so there's no need for him to be as polite as before.

The Tower Master Qiangu clearly noticed the change in the Ghost Emperor's tone, but remembering what he had to do next, he could only say in a deep voice:

"Ghost Emperor, do you know that Jiang Xiu has been nominated as Federal Councilor for saving millions of Federation citizens in Shrek City? His progress is too fast. We absolutely cannot let him grow any further. Do you understand?"

"Jiang Xiu saved the people of the Federation?" Upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor paused for a moment, then his anger surged.

Jiang Xiu has effectively cut off his path to godhood!

"Kill! He must be killed! Only by killing him can I quell the hatred in my heart!" the Ghost Emperor roared, each word distinct and deliberate.

He has made up his mind: first kill Jiang Xiu, then gradually collect souls and blood essence, step by step reaching the pinnacle!

Hearing the Ghost Emperor agree so easily, Qiangu Dongfeng was even a little curious. Did the Ghost Emperor and Jiang Xiu have some deep-seated hatred between them?

However, since the Ghost Emperor had agreed, Qiangu Dongfeng stopped hesitating and said in a deep voice:

"I, the Tower Master, have an excellent opportunity. Jiang Xiu will soon be heading to the Star Luo Continent to represent the Federation in subjugating the Star Luo Empire."

At that time, far from Shrek City and the Body Sect, there will be no powerful figures protecting Jiang Xiu around, which will be the best opportunity to make a move!

"Go to the Star Luo Empire Star Luo Empire conquer it?"

The Ghost Emperor murmured, as if he had thought of something, a glint of malice flashing in his dark green eyes. "Tower Master Qiangu, do you mean the Federation is going to attack the Star Luo Empire?"

"That's right." Qiangu Dongfeng nodded slightly.

The Ghost Emperor's eyes instantly turned sinister as a plan to collect enough souls and blood essence surfaced in his mind.

"If Jiang Xiu dies in the Star Luo Empire, then the Federation, whether for the sake of face or for unification, will send troops to attack the Star Luo Empire..."

"When the flames of war ignite, countless people will die, and that will be the best opportunity for me to collect materials for the Blood River God-Slaying Array!"

Qiangu Dongfeng frowned upon hearing the Ghost Emperor's silence. "Ghost Emperor, this is the best opportunity to kill Jiang Xiu. Don't miss it."

"Hehehe, rest assured, Tower Master Qiangu, how could I possibly miss this opportunity? I'd cherish it more than I could."

After having the idea of collecting materials, the Ghost Emperor felt much better and chuckled:

"To ensure success this time, I will personally take action. If I fail, I will commit seppuku!"

With his Quasi-God level cultivation, facing a mere Soul Douluo would be a piece of cake.

You'd better be.

Qiangu Dongfeng silently thought to himself, after all, the Ghost Emperor had said the same thing last time.

But then, the Ghost Emperor said with a sinister smile, "However, our Holy Spirit Cult Sect has suffered heavy losses this time, and we hope that the Tower Master Qiangu will provide some assistance..."

"I've already planned out the best time for you to make your move." Qiangu Dongfeng's expression turned cold.

The Ghost Emperor remained completely calm and slowly said:

"If the Body Sect finds out you're planning to kill Jiang Xiu..."

"How dare you threaten me?" Qiangu Dongfeng's expression changed, and his tone immediately turned serious.

The Ghost Emperor continued meaningfully:

"If the Federation finds out you transported two God-Slayer Class Fixed Soul Guidance Shell and colluded with Evil Soul Master..."

Qiangu Dongfeng's expression changed repeatedly, but in the end he suppressed his resentment and asked, "How can I help you?"

"I need Jiang Xiu's route after he goes to the Federation, and I need to ensure that no experts from the Body Sect are secretly following him," the Ghost Emperor said, enunciating each word clearly.

"Okay." Qiangu Dongfeng pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"I also need information on the Eternal Heaven, as well as its exact location," the Ghost Emperor continued.

Are you crazy?!

Qiangu Dongfeng was taken aback at first, then roared angrily, "The Eternal Heaven is located in the War God Temple, which is even safer than the Federation District 13. This Tower Master doesn't have the strength to do that!"

"You even dare to covet the position of Sun Moon Federation Speaker..." the Ghost Emperor continued.

But before the Ghost Emperor could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Qiangu Dongfeng, "This Tower Master can only do his best!"

After reciting "The Qiangu Dongfeng," a chilling killing intent flashed in his eyes. The Ghost Emperor knew far too much...

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"

Upon seeing this, the Ghost Emperor let out a sinister laugh and then hung up the Communication Soul Tool.

His gaze then swept over the people behind him, a hint of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.

These powerful members of the Holy Spirit Cult were the forces that helped him kill Jiang Xiu, and as Evil Soul Master, they would never betray the Holy Spirit Cult.

When the Ghost Emperor's gaze fell upon the Dark Blood Demon, a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes. The Dark Blood Demon's aura was now completely weakened.

"To insist on pretending to be divine with Ya Li is like trying to carry a lantern in a toilet."

The Ghost Emperor sighed inwardly; even he had fallen into Ya Li's hands back then.

Immediately, the Ghost Emperor instructed the Dark Bell and Dark Phoenix to look at the two beside him, for these were the ones he could trust.

"Dark Bell, Dark Phoenix, you two will accompany me to the Star Luo Empire to ambush Jiang Xiu!"

"Yes, sir!" Dark Bell quietly put away a mini Soul Tool from her sleeve and nodded.

The Dark Phoenix was the same; a slightly manic blush appeared on her face, which bore a striking resemblance to Leng Yaozhu.

She knew her older sister Leng Yaozhu, cared a lot about Jiang Xiu, so if Jiang Xiu died, it would be even more exciting!

After a moment's thought, recalling Jiang Xiu's numerous brushes with death, the Ghost Emperor's eyes hardened, and he immediately sent a message to the Underworld Emperor.

"Underworld Emperor, come quickly! Join me in annihilating Jiang Xiu, the great threat to the Holy Spirit Cult!"

There is strength in numbers; with one more Underworld Emperor, they have an extra guarantee in killing Jiang Xiu!

"But it's alright now. Although I haven't become a god, at least I still have the Underworld Emperor by my side."

The thought that even the Underworld Emperor was stuck at the Quasi-God level made the Ghost Emperor feel a bit better.

"Drop!"

But at that moment, a skeleton inside the Ghost Emperor's black robe suddenly trembled, and the Ghost Emperor's expression changed instantly.

Because it was a token used by the Demon Empress to contact him.

After setting up the soundproof barrier, the Ghost Emperor instantly opened it.

But the voice that came through was not that of the Demon Empress, but rather that of the Abyssal Sage King!

"Ghost Emperor, you must return to the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters immediately!"

"Holy Monarch Majesty, what has happened?"

Upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor instantly had a bad feeling.

Then, the Demon Empress's voice echoed from within the skull.

"Ghost Emperor, come back first. The Abyssal Sage King wants to ask you why the aftershocks of the God-Slayer Class Fixed Soul Guidance Shell reached the Abyss Plane."

"What? Bombing the Abyss Plane?"

The Ghost Emperor's eyes were somewhat dazed, and he was immediately stunned.

He felt as if a huge, black pot was being thrown at him...

Inside the Spirit Pagoda.

After disconnecting the Ghost Emperor's Communication Soul Tool, Qiangu Dongfeng's expression instantly turned gloomy.

The Ghost Emperor actually dared to threaten him!

At that moment, a secret message was sent to his Communication Soul Tool.

After reading the message, Qiangu Dongfeng raised an eyebrow slightly and murmured, "Why did Leng Yaozhu go to the Star Luo Empire at this time..."

After a moment's thought, Qiangu Dongfeng's eyes hardened, and he immediately sent a message to Zhang Geyang was in the Star Luo Empire.

"Secretly cooperate with the people arranged by this Tower Master to eliminate Jiang Xiu, if possible..."

"Kill Leng Yaozhu as well!"

After sending the message, seeing Zhang Geyang's completely obedient response, Qiangu Dongfeng's lips curled slightly. He then turned around and looked through the floor-to-ceiling window behind him at the location of the Body Sect.

"The Body Sect should go with the Shrek Academy..."

"The Qiangu Dongfeng" said with a serene gaze.

His plan was flawless.

After all, neither the Star Luo Empire's Spirit Pagoda branch nor the Holy Spirit Cult had anyone from the Body Sect...

It was at this moment, in the Cultivation Room on the top floor of the Spirit Pagoda.

Qiangu Dieting suddenly opened his eyes. For some reason, he had a very ominous premonition. At his level, the only reason for such a premonition, besides his own personal crisis, was the fate of his Qiangu Family, which he cared about most.

The next moment, Qiangu Dieting produced a Tortoise Shell in his hand, but after pondering for a moment, he still did not activate it.

Although this Turtle Shell Divine Artifact can predict future fortunes, it consumes irreparable life force. At his current age, using it even once could very likely lead to a decline in his combat power.

"Forget it, the Qiangu Family is thriving under Dongfeng's leadership right now, so there shouldn't be any problems..."

Qiangu Dieting murmured softly, and after much deliberation, slowly put away the Tortoise Shell.

Just as Qiangu Dongfeng was feeling that his flawless plan was perfect.

Jiang Xiu had just entered the Body Sect, suddenly received two messages...
