Chapter 274 There is no good feast
Demonic Forest, headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult.
Although it was daytime and the sun shone through the gaps in the trees, the place still looked gloomy. Countless ghosts gathered here and howled in pain, making the surrounding temperature a bit colder.
In a secret room, the majestic energy of heaven and earth was constantly surging. Outside the secret room, Dragon King Douluo Long Xiaoyao was looking at the door of the secret room with a frown.
Having reached the realm of the ninety-ninth level Ultimate Douluo, he also touched the boundaries of this world. This world did not allow people with higher cultivation levels to appear, and suppressed soul masters like him from going any further.
Unless other means are used to travel to the larger world.
There is another name for this method, becoming a god.
In that secret room, Ye Xishui was trying to master a higher level of power. She is different from Moon.
As both Extreme Douluo, Munn had already lost the possibility of further advancement due to her own injuries, but Ye Xishui was in her prime, and she had tried to break through the limits of the plane more than once.
It’s just that she doesn’t know whether it’s because the means she obtained are only fragments and incomplete, or for some other reason, despite trying many times, she still hasn’t gained anything.
After a while, the door to the secret room finally opened, and Ye Xi walked out of it with a look of exhaustion.
Long Xiaoyao waited for the fluctuations in her soul power to gradually subside before taking a step forward and coming to Ye Xishui's side.
"How was it this time?"
Ye Xishui just shook his head.
"By the way, during your retreat, Xu Tianran sent someone an invitation, saying that the prince is going to hold a apprenticeship ceremony, and he invites you to come and observe the ceremony. Counting the days, it's just these few days."
"Hmph." Ye Xishui snorted coldly, "Since the end of the war, he has been avoiding us. If he takes the initiative to invite us this time, I'm afraid it won't be a good feast."
"Yeah, we lost the last war..."
When Long Xiaoyao said this, he glanced at Ye Xishui. Ye Xishui's child Zhong Liwu died in the war.
However, Ye Xishui's expression did not change at all when he heard this. Although Zhong Liwu was her child, she didn't like this forcibly obtained child. Once he died, Ye Xishui seemed to have broken free from the shackles and no longer cared about the Holy Spirit Cult, but only focused on seeking a breakthrough.
However, Long Xiaoyao did not continue on this matter, "I'm afraid this time is related to the Dongyang City matter. The Holy Spirit Cult did some things in Dongyang City without Xu Tianran's knowledge. I didn't expect that it would be exposed by people from the Star Luo Empire in the end." out.”
"Xingluo Empire?" Ye Xishui raised his eyes and asked, "Is he the child you showed mercy to last time?"
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from you." Long Xiaoyao laughed, "Although I have stopped, the child's strength is indeed extraordinary."
Ye Xishui nodded in agreement upon hearing this, "Besides him, I can't think of anyone else who can fight against that thing in Dongyang City."
"And that kid has a good relationship with Moon." Long Xiaoyao seemed to have thought of something and laughed.
"You just said that the prince is apprenticed to you, who is he apprenticed to?" Ye Xishui paused slightly after hearing this, and then asked about other things after a moment of silence.
"Kong Deming."
"It turned out to be the old guy."
"Since Xu Tianran dares to invite us to the banquet, I'm afraid that old guy has already made a breakthrough."
"Huh, this is a demonstration." Ye Xishui walked out with a trace of disdain in his eyes. A thought flashed through Long Xiaoyao's mind, but he chuckled, shook his head, and followed.
Even if Kong Deming breaks through, the Sun and Moon Empire will not be so arrogant as to deal with two Extreme Douluo at the same time.
……
The news of the Sun-Moon Empire's crown prince's apprenticeship spread quickly. Even for people who didn't know Kong Deming, it was easy to understand what the words "Father of Soul Guidance Devices" meant.
The entire palace was decorated, as if it were a festival, and it was much more lively than usual.
Naturally, those attending the prince's apprenticeship banquet were all soul masters with soul power, including dozens of ninth-level soul masters including Jing Hongchen, the contemporary master of Mingde Hall.
The evening banquet was slightly different from Ye Xishui's expectation. Xu Tianran seemed to be as usual, showing no other expression, and from time to time he smiled and raised his glass from a distance.
After three rounds of drinking, Orange, who had been sitting next to Xu Tianran, nodded slightly to him.
"It's really hard for Mr. Ye to work hard for Holy Spirit Cult."
Coming.
Ye Xishui's eyes moved slightly. This was the first time Xu Tianran mentioned the Holy Spirit Cult. Everyone here is of high strength and status. It is natural to know who the people in the Holy Spirit Sect are. Xu Tianran put it forward so straightforwardly, and I am afraid that other things will be mentioned next.
Sure enough, the smile on Xu Tianran's face gradually disappeared, "It's just that I heard that the Holy Spirit Cult has been secretly collecting souls. When our empire's soldiers fought desperately on the battlefield, their souls could not rest peacefully in the hands of the Holy Spirit Cult. If it weren't for Dongyang City some time ago, I’m afraid you’ve kept me in the dark about what happened.”
Ye Xishui glanced at the upright Xu Tianran. Without his secret instructions, how could the Holy Spirit Sect's actions be so smooth?
"Oh? I haven't been involved in the affairs of the church for a long time, but I have also heard that everyone in the Holy Spirit Church is doing things for His Majesty. I'm afraid this matter is inconsistent with what His Majesty said, right?"
Xu Tianran naturally knew the truth very well. There was only a reason for speaking first. At this time, everything was ready, and he did not want to talk to Ye Xishui anymore. After all, some of the things he did could not withstand scrutiny.
If he continues to talk about how he used the Holy Spirit Cult to seize the crown prince's position, he is afraid of causing trouble again.
So, Xu Tianran looked aside slightly.
A ninth-level soul master on one side immediately jumped up and said, "Ye Xishui, you have killed countless civilians in our empire. How can the empire keep you if you act like this?"
As he said this, the soul master came to Xu Tianran and bowed, "I beg your Majesty to order an order to get rid of this scourge for the empire."
"Your Majesty, please give the order." As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of agreement from the banquet.
Long Xiaoyao's eyes changed on the side, and the soul power in his body surged, already ready to go.
Looking at this posture, it is not just as simple as accountability. Unexpectedly, the thought that flashed through his mind before setting off would actually come true, and Xu Tianran actually wanted to take action against them.
Ye Xishui's eyes were also unkind. She looked around, but she didn't feel too panicked. Although she didn't bring any soul tools like the Death Tower on this trip, with the power of the two Extreme Douluo, she didn't think Xu Tianran could really keep them.
"Mr. Ye, this is the last time I call you this. I have to think about the people of the world, and the Holy Spirit Cult is really not allowed to stay."
