The heart of the Evil Demon Forest.
The raging fire consumed everything, reducing it to ashes, and the sky was dyed dark red by the surging Heat Wave.
The underground headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult has been completely destroyed!
Those Evil Soul Master who were transferred here were all eliminated without exception!
Qian Daoliu, the mastermind behind all of this, was now staring expressionlessly at everything that had already ignited.
The Holy Spirit Cult will be completely wiped out!
Whether they were high-ranking officials at the Titled Douluo level or new-generation Evil Soul Master at the fifth or sixth ring level, they were all completely eliminated by him, leaving no one alive.
To Qian Daoliu's slight regret, however, he did not see a single soul worthy of salvation in the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters.
This place is full of nothing but the fallen...
Thinking of this, Qian Daoliu shook his head and couldn't help but sigh.
"Why are you sighing?" a teasing voice rang out at the opportune moment.
Dugu Bo had somehow appeared behind Qian Daoliu, patted him on the shoulder, and asked.
"Ha, such a big fire, it's been going on for quite a while."
Looking at the scene before him, Dugu Bo clicked his tongue and said, "You killed all the Evil Soul Master here? Was there really not a single one who deserved to live?"
"No."
Qian Daoliu shook his head and looked at Dugu Bo, asking, " The Evil Eye Tyrant Dominator hasn't followed us? I thought I was going to lend you a hand and go deal with that giant eyeball together..."
"Ha ha."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo gave an awkward smile, "That won't be necessary. It seems he never really wanted to fight me in the first place."
"However, that big-eyed guy's cultivation and strength are truly impressive. If you have the chance, you can give it a try too."
As Dugu Bo spoke, he raised his hand again and patted Qian Daoliu's shoulder:
"If we were to truly engage in a life-or-death struggle, I definitely wouldn't be a match for that Evil Eye Tyrant Dominator. It's too much of a counter to me."
"My poison is strong, but it's hard to work against an opponent of this level. Not to mention, its mental strength is so powerful that my poison can hardly touch it." Dugu Bo's tone was somewhat dejected.
Having just absorbed the Dragon Core, a powerful treasure, his strength had increased considerably. He had been eager to find someone to fight, but he was defeated, which left him somewhat frustrated.
However, he quickly returned to normal.
That's perfectly normal. He was one of the weaker fighters among the Limit Douluo level, and his strength lay not in one-on-one battles, but in group battles.
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but glance at Qian Daoliu.
If the two sides were to truly unleash a bloodbath in a suitable environment, even ten Qian Daoliu wouldn't Dugu Bo. The same would be true even if the targets of the slaughter were Evil Soul Master.
"So after I sensed that your activity had stopped, I immediately took the opportunity to slip away and stopped communicating with him."
Dugu Bo met Qian Daoliu's gaze and spread his hands. "If I really wanted to leave, the Evil Eye Tyrant Dominator wouldn't be able to stop me there."
And it probably knew very well that if it really chased after us, it would have to face the combined forces of the two of us, so it went back to sleep.
"However, you probably won't have much of a chance to fight him, since it probably won't be long before Xiao Mo comes looking for him."
"Yes, that's right." Qian Daoliu nodded, still looking rather uninterested.
His gaze returned to the burning earth, and he began to mutter to himself:
" Old Poison, I wonder if you've ever had this feeling?"
address:\\\\\\.\\\
How does it feel?
"This world is abnormal, extremely abnormal, even extraordinary!"
"In this world, even Evil Soul Master dare to appear openly, choosing to emerge from seclusion, and even daring to cooperate with one of the heirs of a nation, attempting to become the state religion..."
Don't you think it's bad?
This world is so abnormal. Evil Soul Master, who should be like rats in the sewers, dare to appear openly, while normal Soul Master have to be careful when facing them, for fear of accidentally angering them and getting into trouble.
Qian Daoliu recalled what he had seen and heard while infiltrating the Sun Moon and Moon Court, and murmured to himself.
"This is unreasonable, extremely unreasonable!"
"What's unreasonable about this?"
Dugu Bo, looking like he'd never seen anything like it, raised an eyebrow and retorted, " Old Qian, don't forget, ten thousand years ago it was Tang San who defeated your Spirit Hall, winning that Battle of the Two Gods, and spreading the faith in the Sea God almost throughout the entire continent."
"It's fair to say that Tang San's behind-the-scenes efforts are indispensable in shaping the current state of the mainland..."
"If others don't know Tang San 'Tang San situation, how could you and I not know it?"
Dugu Bo sneered, his tone full of mockery. "That guy Tang San can be said to be the biggest Evil Soul Master in the entire Douluo Continent."
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the leader of the Evil Soul Master!
"Under these circumstances, isn't it perfectly normal for the Holy Spirit Cult to have developed to its current state?"
Moreover, who knows, the so-called Holy Emperor, the deity worshipped by the Holy Spirit Cult might actually be the righteous and majestic Lord Sea God in the eyes of others on the Douluo Continent?
"With a Sea God who is also Evil Soul Master around, what kind of world can you expect the Douluo Continent to be in now?"
"In other words, with Tang San supporting them, the fact that the Evil Soul Master have been able to endure until now and develop to this point is already quite remarkable." Dugu Bo's tone was full of sarcasm.
Qian Daoliu silent; he had no words to reply.
Not long after.
Sun Moon Empire and Moon Empire, Princess Tianzhen's Residence.
"Master, you're back!" Xu Tianzhen's excited voice rang out, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the two people who had suddenly appeared in front of them. Qian Daoliu and Dugu Bo's faces were full of surprise.
"Master." Ye Guyi bowed slightly, greeting Qian Daoliu and Dugu Bo.
"Alright, alright, no need for formalities." Dugu Bo waved his hand, walked to a chair in the hall, and sat down with his legs crossed.
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu smiled helplessly and found a chair to sit down.
"Master, how was the outcome of your mission?"
Xu Tianzhen tugged at the hem of her skirt, her face showing a conflicted expression. After hesitating for a long time, she slowly asked:
"Master, have you found evidence that my elder brother colluded with Evil Soul Master?"
"Found it."
Qian Daoliu said, " The Harvest this time has been extremely fruitful; it was definitely worth the trip."
"From this day forward, the Holy Spirit Cult will cease to exist on this continent. Except for a few weak Evil Soul Master who have escaped the net, all other Evil Soul Master will be exterminated."
"All the high-ranking members of the Holy Spirit Cult were killed, including all the Titled Douluo- level elders, such as Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao and Death God Douluo Ye Xishui."
Even if a few members of the Holy Spirit Cult Holy Spirit Cult do manage to spread outside, there is no possibility of them rising again in the short term.
"So you can rest assured and think carefully about how to be a good empress when you come of age in a few years."
At this point, a smile appeared on Qian Daoliu's face. As he spoke, he reached into his Storage Soul Tool, took out something, and tossed it to Xu Tianzhen.
Xu Tianzhen subconsciously reached out and took it, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that it was a meticulously compiled case file.
The things recorded above are evidence of her elder brother Xu Tianran's collusion with the Holy Spirit Cult.
Xu Tianzhen stared wide-eyed, her hands trembling as she flipped through all the records inside.
After a long silence, he sighed, "Alas, so that's how it is. Power has always stirred people's hearts."
I never imagined that my elder brother would go so far as to collude with the Holy Spirit Cult in order to better seize the throne.
To further their relationship, she even recognized the leader of the Evil Soul Master as her mother.
This is truly an insult to royal dignity, utterly despicable...
"Pfft!"
Seeing her junior sister's righteous demeanor and her earnest words, Ye Guyi couldn't help but speak up.
"What's wrong? Little Tianzhen, are you having second thoughts? Want to let your older brother off the hook?" Ye Guyi teased.
No, I didn't.
Xu Tianzhen shook her head, her expression turning serious. "Speaking of which, Brother Tianran took good care of me, just like the other brothers."
Considering this friendship, all I can do is let him pass away peacefully, suffer less, and perhaps leave him a complete corpse.
Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi couldn't help but shake her head.
Sure enough, this junior sister of hers, the innocent junior sister who was extremely favored in the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire, was far from being as innocent as she appeared on the surface.
Otherwise, upon realizing that he also had the ability to compete for and vie for the throne, he wouldn't have made up his mind so quickly.
"Then I'd like to congratulate you in advance, future Empress of the Sun Moon Empire!" Ye Guyi whispered softly in Xu Tianzhen's ear.
Xu Tianzhen blushed and ignored her senior sister's teasing. Instead, she turned to look at her master, who was watching the commotion from the side.
After bowing respectfully to him, he then said very seriously:
"Master, if I ascend the throne, I will fulfill all the promises I made to you. With just a word from you, the entire Sun Moon Empire Sun Moon Empire will spontaneously begin to worship Lord Lin Mo!"
"Just do it however you like," Qian Daoliu waved his hand dismissively.
With the evidence he obtained, Xu Tianran is about to become a prisoner, not far from death.
With his and Dugu Bo's support behind the scenes, Xu Tianzhen will become the only legitimate heir to the Sun Moon Empire.
Within the Sun Moon Empire, besides him and Dugu Bo, who were outsiders, Xu Tianzhen had also won over other supporters.
Thinking of this, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but recall the scene of fighting against the only Soul Engineer in the Sun Moon Empire who possessed Twin Martial Souls.
Golden Sun, Silver Moon.
A fairly good combination of Twin Martial Souls, but unfortunately, the Martial Soul's owner doesn't care much about cultivation.
Despite possessing such a top-tier Twin Martial Souls configuration, the original owner was so engrossed in researching Soul Tool that he greatly neglected his cultivation.
Even with the power of his Twin Martial Souls in their later stages, it only barely pushed his cultivation level to level Level 94.
In Qian Daoliu's view, this was a great pity.
If he continues to cultivate normally, this guy's cultivation level, let alone breaking through to the Limit Douluo realm, would easily reach level ninety-seven or ninety-eight.
Coupled with that guy's porcupine-like, peak-level ninth-grade Soul Tool, he would have the power to fight even against Limit Douluo.
Thinking of this, a smile involuntarily appeared on Qian Daoliu's face.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".
He had fought against Kong, the number one Soul Engineer in the Sun Moon Empire, and even though Kong used all his skills, he was no match for him.
As the saying goes, no fight, no friendship. After fighting with him, Kong also figured out his and Dugu Bo's intentions. After thinking for a long time, he also chose to stand on Xu Tianzhen's side.
Without Kong's explicit stance, it wouldn't be easy for Xu Tianzhen, a woman, to secure her position as the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire.
Kong made the difficult decision to take sides only after careful consideration.
After all, his status in the Sun Moon Empire was extremely special, as he himself possessed one-quarter royal blood.
In addition to his own Offering Hall, it can be said that Kong held an extremely prominent position within the Sun Moon Empire.
Simply put, whichever prince Kong sides with will become the next emperor of the Sun Moon Empire.
Unfortunately, even Xu Tianran, who was at the height of his power at the time, failed to win him over. That's why he took a risk and chose to bring in external forces and cooperate with the Holy Spirit Cult.
The main reason Kong decided to support Xu Tianzhen was the appearance of Qian Daoliu and Dugu Bo.
The two Limit Douluo, both of whom were not Evil Soul Master Limit Douluo, chose to support Xu Tianzhen.
From the moment the two of them chose to side with Princess Tianzhen, all the other princes, including Xu Tianran, had already lost, utterly lost.
His actions, at best, can only be considered as acting from his heart.
As for the old emperor of the Sun Moon Empire?
No one has ever cared about his attitude.
Because of the former crown prince Xu Tianran's secret intervention, the old emperor, who was originally Eight-Ring Soul Douluo, was already in poor health in his middle age.
According to the imperial physician, the old emperor, who should be in the prime of his life, has little time left to live.
Even with the help of the Imperial Physician Douluo and the nourishment of numerous rare and precious herbs, he would only have a lifespan of seven or eight years at most.
In this situation, he had long since lost all real power. If he had simply remained a puppet emperor, he could have enjoyed his later years in peace.
Otherwise... he might "accidentally" die.
"Alright, alright, you two little girls can go down now."
Dugu Bo waved his hand, indicating that Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen could leave for the time being, but before they left, he added:
"I know you've reached a bottleneck in your cultivation and are eager to acquire Soul Ring to break through, but don't rush it."
"After some time, I'll take you somewhere to obtain the most suitable ' Soul Ring ' for you."
Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen exchanged a glance, then nodded simultaneously, their hearts filled with joy.
They then left.
A moment later, Dugu Bo looked at Qian Daoliu beside him, took a sip of wine, and asked, "Old man, do you think Xiao Mo has finished his business yet?"
