"Try? Evil Soul Masters deserve nothing but death." Xuan Zi took a sip from a flask he pulled from his storage type soul tool.
After a brief silence, he continued, "Cai Mei'er, you know I've made mistakes in the past. If I hadn't been negligent, maybe Yao Haoxuan and the others wouldn't have died."
As he spoke, his eyes reddened with emotion.
"The academy sent people to comfort their parents and paid compensation, but this has always been a wound in my heart.
I swore to myself I will kill the Death God Envoy.
I will avenge my students.
Even if I can't find him right now, I will slaughter every last Evil Soul Master.
Who knows when one of them might harm another student?
You know me I've always prioritized my students above all else!"
Cai Mei'er sighed, her expression darkening.
"Xuan Lao, this wasn't entirely your fault.
The Death God Envoy was too cunning.
I can understand why you can't hold back when you see an Evil Soul Master."
Yao Haoxuan and the others had been exceptional students, yet they all perished at the hands of the Death God Envoy.
Cai Mei'er felt a deep sorrow had they survived, they would have become powerful soul masters and brought great honor to Shrek Academy.
"It's good that you understand.
I won't allow another student to die at the hands of an Evil Soul Master."
Zhongli Wu's expression was grim.
He turned to his vice leader, Feng Ling, and said,
"Shrek Academy has hunted down and slaughtered our Evil Soul Masters.
Our entire intelligence network in the three former Douluo empires has collapsed.
Some escaped, but many more were exterminated."
"This is a devastating blow to the Holy Spirit Cult."
Although the cult's headquarters was in Sun Moon Empire, they still needed external intelligence.
They also recruited talent from other empires, but Shrek's assault had caught them completely off guard.
"Shrek's Enforcement Squad has always hunted Evil Soul Masters, but they've never inflicted such damage on us before.
Should we ambush Shrek students near their academy?
If they dare slaughter our people, we can retaliate."
Zhongli Wu immediately rejected the idea.
Feng Ling was stunned.
"Are we really going to just swallow this insult?
The Holy Spirit Cult's dignity cannot be challenged!"
"Feng Ling, I mean not right now.
For the greater good of the Holy Spirit Cult, we must endure for now.
Even if we attack Shrek Academy and kill a few students, it won't matter.
Their core students are heavily protected.
If we target the exchange students from Sun Moon, we'll damage relations with the empire.
Right now, we are allies with Sun Moon Empire.
Unless the empire orders us to act, we must not move.
If we do, it will jeopardize our position."
He clenched his fists.
"Besides, Kong Deming is already against me.
He opposes my plans to make the Holy Spirit Cult the empire's state religion.
If we act recklessly, my dream of becoming the Empire's Grand Priest will be even harder to achieve!"
Zhongli Wu's ambition was to secure the Holy Spirit Cult's dominance, not waste time fighting battles that wouldn't change the outcome.
"Furthermore, with our intelligence network in ruins, we are completely blind in the Douluo territories.
Attacking now would be reckless.
But I promise you one day, Shrek Academy will suffer dearly."
As he finished, he took his wife's hand.
Feng Ling finally understood.
Her husband wasn't backing down he was playing the long game.
He was biding his time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
Truly, he was a man of great vision.
Then, Zhongli Wu said,
"I've heard that a girl with an Angel Martial Soul has appeared in the Sun Moon Empire.
Feng Ling, deploy our forces to hunt her down immediately.
No matter what, she must die.
If she is allowed to grow, she will become our greatest enemy."
Feng Ling's expression hardened.
"An Angel Martial Soul?"
I'll send every available force to eliminate her."
The Angel bloodline was the ultimate counter to Evil Soul Masters.
Not only could they purify evil spirits, but they could absorb that purified energy to grow stronger.
They were natural enemies of the Holy Spirit Cult.
"According to our records, when the Angel Clan was at its peak, many of our ancestors fell to them.
We should be grateful to Tang San."
Feng Ling was confused.
"A thousand years ago, he defeated the Angel God and destroyed Spirit Hall, leading to the Angel Clan's decline.
Because of that, our Evil Soul Master ancestors finally had a chance to thrive.
The Holy Spirit Cult was founded as a result.
In a way, Tang San contributed greatly to our existence."
In truth, the Angel Clan wasn't just Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu, and Qian Xunji.
They were simply the strongest members.
And given Qian Renxue's personality, after Tang San defeated her, she wouldn't have had children.
Any Angel Martial Soul users today were likely unrelated to her.
"But if I were Tang San, before leaving for the so called God Realm, I would have protected the Angel Clan.
If he had gathered them under his rule, they wouldn't have faded away.
After all, the holy attribute of the Angel Martial Soul is extremely powerful against certain enemies.
Yet, he chose not to.
Did he actually want the world to fall into chaos?"
Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao reached a small creek.
He raised his staff, chanting an incantation.
Moments later, a pitch black gate filled with aura of annihilation appeared before him
The Gate of the Undead.
With a wave of his hand, he disabled his Mimicry Soul Skill, allowing the Golden Tortoise to reappear.
The creature stared at the Undead Gate, its eyes filled with confusion.
"This gate… its aura doesn't feel right. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵
It reminds me of the Evil Soul Masters.
I don't fully understand it, but…
Are you really not an Evil Soul Master?"
Strictly speaking, I am a half Necromancer completely different from an Evil Soul Master."
After all, he was the student of the Undead Holy God, Electrolux.
So technically, he was a Necromancer.
However, he wasn't a true Necromancer because he also used light based magic, like Purifying Light.
He was a Holy Necromancer.
And when it came to controlling the dead, Necromancers were far superior to Evil Soul Masters.
