Chapter 269 1. Evil Generation, Dark Phoenix, Divine Artifact!
Chapter 269 One evil spirit among evil, Dark Phoenix, Divine Artifact!
"Blood Eye, a spirit-type Soul Master, a level 96 Super Douluo, specializing in stealth and assassination, and holding the seventh position among the elders in the Holy Spirit Cult."
The paper human skin shattered into fragments and flew everywhere. Under Jiang Xiu's deep voice, disbelief appeared on Xue Tong's pale and slightly sinister face, and her pupils contracted sharply.
Because what Jiang Xiu said was exactly the same, and you have to know that the information of their Holy Spirit Cult is extremely secretive!
Especially these elders, with the exception of a very few who are known to the Federation and wanted by the government, never show their true faces.
"Could there be a traitor within the Holy Church?! Do the Underworld Emperor and the Ghost Emperor know about this now?!" Blood Eyes pursed his pale lips, his mind churning with thoughts.
But before she could think any further, Jiang Xiu's voice rang out again:
"Two months ago, you infiltrated the Star Luo delegation's ferry, where you met Chang Gongyan, the vice president of the Star Luo Empire's Blacksmith Association, and were brought here by him to complete your mission of assassinating the Divine Craftsman..."
"But what I'm curious about is, who sent you? And where is the person who sent you now?"
Jiang Xiu looked at Xue Tong with a kind expression, but a hint of coldness lingered in his deep purple eyes.
Zhenhua, his teacher who had imparted all his knowledge to him, had now been assassinated. As his student, he naturally wanted to get to the bottom of the matter and find the final killer.
According to Dark Bell, there was a Ghost Emperor and a Dark Heavenly King among them, but since the Ghost Emperor personally arranged this matter, Dark Bell did not know much about the specifics of the matter.
"I can't tell you anything!"
Blood Eyes turned Zhen's head to the side and remained silent.
The easier something is to obtain, the less it is valued. Before being taken away by Ba Huang, she had already seen the Dark Hummingbird, but the Dark Hummingbird did not save her, which meant it had abandoned her. Her only value now is her understanding of the internal information of the Holy Spirit Cult.
Therefore, she must increase her own weight!
"Ba Huang, turn on the power!" Jiang Xiu seemed to have expected this, waving to Ba Huang.
Besides, since Blood Eye had come to assassinate his teacher, he had no intention of making Blood Eye suffer easily; turning Blood Eye into a shadow soldier would be too lenient.
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
Before anyone knew it, Ba Huang had already pulled out a soul tool crackling with electricity, looking down at Xue Tong with a smile.
"According to the conservation law of the human world, when the soul guide lamp above your head runs out of power, the lightning soul guide device in my hand will be powered up."
Blood-Eyed hardened her heart and stubbornly continued, "I can't tell you anything..."
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ahhh!"
But before Blood Eye could finish speaking, Ba Huang had already swung out the lightning soul tool in his hand. Instantly, lightning flashed, electric arcs spread, and the tense atmosphere quickly heated up.
Three minutes passed, and Xue Tong's whole body convulsed. Her cultivation had been completely suppressed by Ba Huang, so she could only endure the blows.
Shaking his head violently, his bloodshot eyes gradually cleared. Looking at the two men, Jiang Xiu and his companion, who didn't seem like good people, he growled excitedly, "How dare you treat me like this!"
"You inferior creature, I'm already being kind by not killing you," Ba Huang said indifferently.
"Do we evil spirit masters deserve to die?!" Blood-eyed, scorched hair fluttered wildly, and as if changing his expression, he suddenly burst into tears.
"Huh? If you don't die, am I supposed to die?" Jiang Xiu said without hesitation.
"..." Looking at the righteous Jiang Xiu, Xue Tong was slightly taken aback, and said sadly, "Then...then we can also correct our mistakes, you can reason with us..."
"You're an evil spirit master for a day, and you'll be an evil spirit master for life. I'm too lazy to reason with you; you're not worthy." Jiang Xiu said calmly, looking down at Blood Eyes.
"..." Blood Eyes looked at Jiang Xiu, whose stance was firm and even somewhat wicked, and was at a loss for what to do. Was her acting not good enough just now?
"No, he must be trying to mislead me. As an elder of the Holy Spirit Cult, I hold so many secrets in my hands. He would never let me die!" Blood Eye thought to himself, as if he had already seen through the source of the problem.
Immediately, in order to increase her own influence one last time, Blood Eyes resolutely said, "Then kill me. I won't tell you anything."
"This is the first time I've heard of such a request." Jiang Xiu raised an eyebrow, then said to Ba Huang, "Give her her wish."
He's already tormented his teacher enough, so Blood Eye should now become a Shadow Soldier.
As the fierce Ba Huangzhen walked towards her, a hint of anxiety flashed in her blood-red eyes. Something felt wrong with how things were going!
The next moment, Blood Eye felt a pair of thick hands on his neck.
"Take a deep breath, it's normal to feel dizzy," Jiang Xiu said gently, but to Xue Tong's ears it sounded like a devil's whisper.
"I...I...I'll talk!"
"Snap!"
Before Xue Tong could finish speaking, a clear voice rang out, and then Xue Tong's body went limp and collapsed.
"Be careful next time, speak faster." Ba Huang released his hand, letting the blood-red eyes fall.
Jiang Xiu's purple eyes transformed into blood-red pupils, and he slowly raised his palm towards the body of the blood-red pupil, "Shadow King, go!"
In an instant, the [Extraction] power was activated, and a black shadow rose up on Blood Eye's body like flowing water. The panic in Blood Eye's eyes gradually dissipated and was replaced by loyalty.
Jiang Xiu felt a surge of power flowing back into his body, and his cultivation level, originally level 58, instantly broke through to level 59, only slowly stopping at level 60.
This was because he had not yet condensed his sixth spirit ring. The remaining feedback energy was slowly gathering in his body, waiting for him to condense his sixth spirit ring.
Jiang Xiu stretched out his palm, made a grasping motion in the air, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his blood-red eyes.
No wonder everyone likes to add points to Dark Blue; it really does level up quickly!
"Greetings, my lord." In the next instant, Blood Eye knelt on one knee and said respectfully.
"Hmm." Jiang Xiu nodded slightly and asked softly, "Tell me, besides the Ghost Emperor, which Dark King is involved in this mission?"
A hint of reminiscence flashed across her pale, blood-red face, and she parted her red lips slightly to say, "Besides the Ghost Emperor, there is also the Dark Phoenix."
"Dark Phoenix... Leng Yulai..." Upon hearing this name, Jiang Xiu frowned slightly.
Dark Phoenix is the only one of the four Dark Phoenixes whose existence is known to the outside world, because she comes from the Leng family of the Spirit Pagoda and is also the biological sister of Leng Yaozhu.
However, due to love and some misunderstandings back then, Leng Yulai betrayed the Spirit Pagoda and joined the Holy Spirit Cult.
At the same time, this also resulted in only Leng Yaozhu being able to shoulder the great responsibility of the Leng family in this generation, and the Leng family's position in the Spirit Pagoda has been constantly squeezed out, partly due to this reason.
"Hmm... To be precise, both Dark Phoenix and I were executors this time. Dark Phoenix was responsible for establishing a legitimate identity in the Star Luo Empire, while I was responsible for the direct assassination." Blood-Eyed Su pointed to her red lips and pondered.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly. "Then where is the Dark Phoenix now?"
"I don't know about that. We parted ways two months ago. Besides, she has a divine artifact called the Time-Space Shuttle, and she always comes and goes without a trace." Blood Eyes shrugged her shoulders and said with some helplessness.
"Leng Yulai, the Time Shuttle..." Jiang Xiu rubbed his temples. He already had an idea of how to deal with Leng Yulai, but the prerequisite was to capture her.
"However, I feel that the Dark Phoenix will still stay in the Star Luo Empire, because I can sense that the Ghost Emperor has given it another mission. Otherwise, just having an identity would be a waste of its talents."
Her bloodshot eyes and red lips lit up, and she raised her delicate eyebrows as she spoke.
"My lord, aren't we also going to..." Ba Huang suddenly said, his interest piqued.
"That's right, we'll find out when we get to Xingluo." Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered as he said softly.
Taking the opportunity, Xue Tong examined her own body, rubbed her face, and looked back at her fallen body, still charred. A hint of resentment appeared in her beautiful eyes.
"My lord, you were able to turn me into a shadow just now, why did you shock me again? It hurts so much."
"You weren't my subordinate just now, which is why I felt at ease," Jiang Xiu glanced at him and said slowly, "Besides, you assassinated my teacher; I can't just turn the page on that now."
Upon hearing this, Blood Eyes' nostrils twitched slightly, and he immediately adopted a pitiful expression.
"Inferior creature, how can you keep changing your appearance?" Ba Huang frowned slightly as he looked at Blood Eyes' ever-changing expression.
"I grew up in a theater..." Blood Eyes said, his expression returning to normal.
Jiang Xiu stopped listening to these things and began to ponder silently.
The ferocious beasts led by Gu Yue will definitely go to the Star Luo Empire. After all, Dragon Valley is there, and now the Holy Spirit Cult has also sent people there. Moreover, Qian Gu Dong Feng is preparing to send people to intercept and kill him.
This journey through the stars seems destined to be anything but ordinary.
"Interesting. Let's see who will be the final winner, all or nothing..." Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly.
However, this also suited his interests. Only when things were in chaos could he go to the Star Luo Empire's treasury to borrow the national treasure, the Vajra Bracelet.
The Emperor has sent word that he has a way to obtain the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd, so naturally he will make all the necessary preparations.
"By the way, my lord, actually, a major Dark Lord of the Holy Spirit Cult is hiding within Shrek City. Would you like me to lead the way so we can capture him?"
Suddenly, Blood Eyes seemed to have thought of something and raised his hand with great interest.
"The Dark Hummingbird, is it? He still has his mission to fulfill, and it's not time for him to die yet," Jiang Xiu said meaningfully.
The role played by Dark Hummingbird in bombing Shrek Academy and Tang Sect is also very important; he and Jin Lao needed him to imprison Ah Yin.
"Huh! My lord, you know?" Blood Eyes was slightly taken aback and said incredulously.
Didn't the Ghost Emperor say that their Holy Spirit Cult's information was highly confidential? How come her current master knows everything!
Is the mole really that high-ranking?
"Alright, I have something to attend to now. You can go back to the King's Domain," Jiang Xiu said softly.
"King's Domain?" Blood Eyes asked, slightly puzzled.
"Don't worry, everyone in the King's Domain is a good person, a talented individual, and they all speak very well," Jiang Xiu said with a smile.
"Is that so..." Blood Eyes asked, somewhat doubtful.
"Oh right, bring that 100,000-year-old soul bone over later." As if remembering something, Jiang Xiu pointed to the ground and then walked towards his teacher Zhenhua's office.
"I understand," Blood Eye replied, and then disappeared with Emperor Ba.
As Jiang Xiu walked into Zhenhua's office, he happened to hear a voice coming from inside.
"President Chang Gong, I'm sure you don't want this matter to worsen relations between the Star Luo Empire and the Federation..."
