Zang Xin was somewhat surprised, "Really? So you still care about the Tang Sect, huh? I thought you didn't consider yourself to be the Young Sect Master of the Tang Sect!"
This sentence was not a joke. Although making Tang Wulin the Young Sect Master was his idea, no one really knew what the other party actually thought!
Tang Wulin felt a bit helpless, "Sect Master Zang, isn't what you said a bit inappropriate? Outsiders might think I am a cold-hearted person!"
Who would have thought that Sect Master Zang actually thought he was unwilling to be the Young Sect Master of the Tang Sect!
Little did he know, it was because just being the Sea God's Pavilion Master was already a headache, so he naturally didn't have extra energy to manage the Tang Sect!
Zang Xin's mood clearly improved a lot, "Hahaha, no worries, it seems I was indeed mistaken, wronging you, Wulin."
"But hearing your true feelings today can be considered as fulfilling one of my wishes!"
Tang Wulin felt something was off and hurriedly stopped him, "Wait, wait, wait, Sect Master Zang, from what you're saying, you don't intend to pass on the position of Sect Master to me right now, do you?"
"If that's the case, I must refuse!"
Hearing this, Zang Xin couldn't help but laugh, "Wulin, you think exactly like Hall Master Liang. I am still hale and hearty; it's not yet time for me to step down!"
Then he added, "Rest assured, I know that just managing Shrek Academy is already overwhelming for you. I won't rush you to take up the position of Tang Sect Master!"
Only then did Tang Wulin feel relieved, "That's good, Sect Master Zang, you really understand me!"
Zang Xin's lips curled slightly, "But... could you have Xing Lan come back from time to time? After all, she is still a Hall Master, and it's not right for the Tang Sect disciples to see her only a few times each month!"
.....
The Spirit Pagoda!
Thirty-six council members, including the Pagoda Master and Vice Pagoda Master, were seated in the hall...
Even without seriously feeling it, one could tell that the atmosphere in the surrounding space was a bit off!
Qiangugu Dongfeng took a deep breath and spoke, "Everyone, I believe you should all be aware of the recent events, right? The Tang Sect suffered a strike from a twelfth-grade soul guidance shell and was destroyed!"
"This is not good news for our Spirit Pagoda!"
In his heart, he thought coldly, "When did the Holy Spirit Cult develop the twelfth-grade soul guidance shell that could destroy the Tang Sect in one go!"
He was not yet happy about the Tang Sect's destruction, but the point was, the soul guidance shell which could destroy the Tang Sect, with its advanced defensive soul guidance devices, could just as easily destroy the Spirit Pagoda!
As soon as he said this, one of the council members proposed, "Pagoda Master, we currently do not know which force launched the twelfth-grade soul guidance shell, so I suggest we move the Spirit Pagoda headquarters as soon as possible!"
Another council member nodded, "That's right, the Tang Sect was one of the top in soul tool research, and even they couldn't withstand the attack of the twelfth-grade soul guidance shell. It's even more impossible for us!"
"Pagoda Master, for everyone's safety, I second the proposal!"
"I also second it. If we wait for the twelfth-grade soul guidance shell to strike, it will be too late!"
However, apart from those proposing the relocation, the rest of the council members remained silent, looking at Qiangugu Dongfeng with complicated expressions!
Qiangugu Dongfeng paused and then shook his head, "The construction area of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters is enormous. If we were to relocate, it would take at least a year and a half, which is completely unrealistic!"
The inside of the Spirit Pagoda is not that simple. If we relocated, many unspeakable secrets inside could very likely be leaked!
This was something he absolutely could not allow!
Seeing his firm attitude, those proposing relocation closed their mouths, and the atmosphere became awkward...
Just then, a council member sitting at the front spoke coldly, "Pagoda Master, there is actually something I have been puzzled about and I hope you can answer it."
Sitting next to Qiangugu Dongfeng, Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, "So the time has finally come..."
Qiangugu Dongfeng seemed to sense something but kept a calm appearance, "Oh? Go ahead."
The former asked without hesitation, "Pagoda Master, I want to know where all the artificial spirit souls we've made recently have gone? Can you give a reasonable explanation?"
His words were filled with strong questioning...
As council members of the Spirit Pagoda, with a little investigation, they could find that many spirit souls disappeared without any buyers!
They were only bringing this up now because they had all sensed something was amiss!
Instantly, numerous scrutinizing gazes fixed on Qiangugu Dongfeng, waiting for his answer!
...
Meanwhile, seeing his attacks being completely nullified, the middle-aged man widened his eyes in disbelief, "Wha... what? Just casually nullifying my soul skill, who is this man!"
He was a Soul Douluo! Even among the teachers at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, he was one of the top!
Even facing a Titled Douluo, he could still put up a fight!
The other teachers who had witnessed the scene were also shocked, "Who is this man that he can so easily block Teacher Liu's attack! I doubt even a Hyper Douluo could do that!"
"Snapping his fingers and destroying Teacher Liu's soul technique, could this man have a self martial soul?"
"That seems impossible. How could there be such an absurdly powerful Soul Master on the Continent! Maybe this is just one of his soul skills!"
They couldn't believe that the man in front of them had blocked the Soul Douluo's attack with just a finger snap!
The students of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy who were watching from the stage also murmured in confusion, "Who is that man! He's so handsome!"
"Not only that, he blocked Teacher Liu's attack with just a snap of his fingers. That kind of strength must be at the level of a Titled Douluo!"
"Nonsense, Teacher Liu's strength is not much different from a Titled Douluo's. I think this man must have used some sort of soul tool! Do you really think he can block an attack with just a snap?"
"Exactly, but since this man came to save those two pretending to be Shrek students, he's probably not a good person either!"
Ignoring the noise from the stage, Yuanen Yehui and Wu Dousi fixed their gaze on the man in front of them...
Yuanen Yehui spoke, "Teacher Xu... Teacher Xu, why are you here?"
Could it be that Teacher Xu had been secretly protecting them? Otherwise, how could he arrive so timely!
Yes, that must be it!
In an instant, a warm feeling surged in their hearts!
