Chapter 156: Why cultivate without money? The Ghost Emperor is in action!
Time passed, the sun sank in the west.
At the gate of Shrek Academy,
Jiang Xiu strolled out, his nerves, strained all day, relaxed as he gazed at the sky filled with clouds.
So much had happened that day.
Fortunately, he had already made some preliminary arrangements for his Shrek Academy affairs.
Shen Yi had also agreed with him that, due to his immense strength, there was little to teach him. He instructed Jiang Xiu to spend his time as he pleased, aside from required classes.
Furthermore, with enough credits, he could access Shrek Academy's advanced facilities, such as the simulated training room, the Glorious Gate, where the Shrek Seven Devils fought against those from ten thousand and twenty thousand years ago, and even exchange his credits for rare treasures.
Leaving Shrek Academy and entering the Spirit Ice Square, Jiang Xiu glanced and saw two figures cleaning the square.
One of them was Yuan En Yehui.
"Titan Giant Ape, Demonic Plane, this Yuan En family is truly miserable." Jiang Xiu sighed softly.
The Yuan En family should have been at the peak of their glory in this lifetime, but instead, they suffered a catastrophic change.
Because Yuan En Yehui's mother possessed a Fallen Angel spirit, her passive ability was directly triggered when she reached Titled Douluo.
This passive ability provided the location of Douluo Continent to the Demonic Plane.
Thus, the Demonic Portal opened, and the Demonic Plane descended!
Although the Demonic Portal was shattered with the help of the Yuanen family elder, Qingtian Douluo, and the Federation, the damage inflicted was considerable.
Furthermore, since Yuanen Yehui's mother had already reached the Titled Douluo level, her Fallen Angel spirit would continue to transmit coordinates to the Demonic Plane. To prevent further damage, Yuanen Yehui's mother chose to commit suicide.
Due to Yuanen Yehui's mother's summoning of the Demonic Plane, many members of the Yuanen family were affected.
Perhaps because of her mother's death, or perhaps because of his own guilt, Yuanen Yehui's father, the spirit master most likely to reach the Ultimate Douluo Quasi-God realm, took the initiative and requested that the Yuanen family elder abolish and imprison him, a way to vent the hatred of his clan and comfort the deceased.
Thus, Yuanen Yehui lost his mother when he was a child, and his father became lost in thought and lost all hope in life.
The Yuan En family's elder didn't want Yuan En Ye Hui to know the cruel truth, so he pretended to have personally killed the murderer who imprisoned her father and killed her mother.
This hatred fueled Yuan En Ye Hui's survival.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiu shook his head slightly, a flicker of indifference in his eyes.
Ever since the Douluo Continent lost the Divine Realm, and with the inaction of Tang Hao, the replacement Plane Master, Douluo Continent has become a truly coveted commodity.
"Don't worry, Senior Plane Spirit, none of these planes can escape. I'll help you fight them off one by one!" Recalling the old Plane Spirit's dying words, a fierce look flashed across Jiang Xiu's eyes.
"Beep, beep!"
Just then, the horn of a soul-guided car honked outside Lingbing Square. Jiang Xiu looked in the direction of the sound and saw Na'er pulling up to the curb in a luxurious soul-guided car, waving at him.
"Tsk, Na'er's really got rich this time."
Jiang Xiu smiled slightly and walked towards Na'er. From what he knew, a soul-guided car with a little golden man logo on the front was worth a fortune, even comparable to the price of a few ordinary ten-thousand-year soul spirits.
"Hey, Yuan En, look, isn't that Jiang Xiu? He's so handsome, and so powerful." The female student next to Yuan En Ye Hui was also attracted by the beeping sound. Upon seeing Jiang Xiu, she excitedly pulled Yuan En Ye Hui to her side.
Although it was just one day, the news that Jiang Xiu had defeated three young prodigies in the Outer Court and ascended to the top of the Young Prodigy Ranking had already spread throughout Shrek Academy.
"Wow! He actually had someone to pick him up and didn't have to live on campus," the female student said enviously as she watched Jiang Xiu board the soul-guided car. "If I could be with Jiang Xiu, I'd be willing to ride in this car every day!"
Yuan En Ye Hui: "..."
It was just a fantasy before he was poisoned by the academy's prepared food.
"Yuan En, how are you feeling?" the female student next to Yuan En Ye Hui asked.
Yuan En Ye Hui took a look and nodded in agreement, "If I sell this soul guide car, I should be able to forge several battle armor parts."
"Oh, Yuan En, you are really unromantic." The female student said helplessly. She knew that Yuan En Ye Hui was short of credits and money, but she didn't expect him to be so short of it.
Yuan En Ye Hui pursed her red lips and did not respond.
In order to rescue her imprisoned father and avenge her mother, she had to become stronger.
And the resources for cultivation and the funds needed for battle armor had to be earned by her own hands.
In this era, what's the point of practicing without money?
In the era of the extinction of soul beasts, even the souls required for upgrades are clearly marked with a price.
"Yuan En, I've cleaned up the area I'm responsible for, and I'll go back first." The female student put away her tools, hesitated for a moment, and whispered to Yuan En Ye Hui.
The area they cleaned was divided equally, but few people were willing to clean Lingbing Square. The task required three people, and today, one person was missing. Yuan En Yehui volunteered to take on the work of two people, earning an extra credit.
"Yeah, okay," Yuan En Yehui replied softly, continuing to clean. Lingbing Square, vast as an entire football field, was lined with sculptures.
Under the setting sun, bathed in the rosy glow of the sunset, Yuan En Yehui continued to clean.
His slender shadow stretched out, a little lonely, yet filled with a resolute strength.
"Elbow! Boss, I'll take you for a ride." Na'er watched Jiang Xiu get into the car and immediately started it.
This was Leng Yaozhu's car, which Na'er had secretly driven out today to pick up Jiang Xiu.
Shrek City is a large city with a population of one million. Although the roads are wide, it is still during the evening rush hour, and the traffic on the roads is a bit congested.
But when Na'er drove this soul-guided car, the previously crowded lane ahead suddenly became moving.
When Na'er saw the car stuck in the traffic ahead, a flash of understanding flashed in her beautiful eyes. "So it's a Ma Yingda. No wonder you're stuck in traffic."
Jiang Xiu was stunned at first, then smiled slightly at Na'er on the side. Did he count this as eating the gigolo's rice in one bite?
"Boss, your master and my master had a big fight at Shrek Academy today." Na'er said excitedly as she drove the car. "Even the Shrek Academy's self-defense forces were alarmed."
"Self-defense forces..." Jiang Xiu whispered.
"Yes, a self-defense force, but I'm also curious. Shrek Academy has its own army. In the eyes of the Federation, isn't that a recipe for death? And yet the Federation tolerates it?" Na'er shrugged, puzzled.
"If it were me, I'd make sure Shrek Academy didn't suffer any consequences. Doesn't the Federation have three level 12 fixed-type soul-guided cannonballs? If Shrek Academy doesn't disband its army, I'll just fire one down and blow them apart."
Jiang Xiu stared at Na'er in amazement. Could it be that Na'er could predict the future?
But a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. What Na'er could foresee, some of the Federation's powerful figures could also foresee.
Therefore, the fact that two level-twelve fixed-type soul guide shells were transported through the Federation wasn't a coincidence, but an inevitable outcome.
"To destroy them, you must first drive them mad..."
Jiang Xiu muttered softly, watching the Shrek Academy recede behind him.
Meanwhile, at this time, the various forces within Shrek Academy were reaching their peak...
...
inside the Spirit Pagoda.
"Brother Mu, Elder Han, Tower Master Leng, please all take a seat." Qiangu Dongfeng led a few people into the spacious office and ordered his subordinates to make tea.
"Temple Master Qiangu, thank you very much for this. I wonder what's the important matter?" Han Tianyi asked slowly, a glint in her eyes.
After the day's battle, Qiangu Dongfeng had invited them to the Spirit Pagoda. And since Qiangu Dongfeng was ostensibly supporting the Body Sect in this matter, it was understandable that they wouldn't come.
"Hehehe, it's nothing serious. I just want to improve the relationship between our Spiritual Transmission Pagoda and Sect Master Muye, so we can help each other in the future." Qiangu Dongfeng said with a smile
. Damn, that's the sound of a rich man's laughter.
Listening to Qiangu Dongfeng's voice, Muye thought secretly.
Perhaps the Spirit Pagoda's treasure trove is even more valuable than the Tang Sect's...
Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu's beautiful, dark crimson eyes flashed with a cold glint. Qiangu Dongfeng clearly knew of her relationship with the Benti Sect, and his actions were precisely intended to drive a wedge between them.
However, she knew full well that Qiangu Dongfeng's actions were futile.
This was undoubtedly an attempt to completely marginalize the Leng family.
Qiangu Dongfeng then engaged in a bland conversation with the others.
Suddenly, Qiangu Dongfeng's communication soul device began to chime. He had already placed one on the table, and there was even another one on his person.
"What a rich man! He even has two communication soul devices." Seeing this, Muye's mouth twitched slightly.
He also resolved that once the Benti Sect became wealthy, he would also have two, one in reserve and one in use.
When Qiangu Dongfeng heard the communication soul guide on his body ringing, a hint of nervousness flashed across his eyes. He then apologized to a few people, walked out of the office, went to the silent room on the other side, and used his soul power to open a soundproof cover.
On the communication soul guide, the note was exactly: "Saint - Ghost" in two big characters.
After Qiangu Dongfeng confirmed that it was correct, he pressed the answer button and said in a low voice, "Ghost Emperor, are you crazy? Didn't this tower master say that you should not call me unless it's a big deal?"
"Hehehe!" The voice of the Ghost Emperor came faintly, "My dear Qiangu Tower Master, have you decided on our [Ammunition Transport] plan?"
Upon hearing this, Qiangu Dongfeng's face instantly straightened!
