Chapter 532 Speculation on the Strength of the Holy Spirit (Part 1)
Shrek Academy, Flander's Office.
A gentle breeze blew in through the window. The eight Shrek monsters sat on the sofas, while opposite them, Flander, Ning Fengzhi, and Chen Xin raised their teacups in silence.
Just a few days ago, after Emperor Xingluo finished dealing with matters concerning Davis, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing returned to the academy with the other six Shrek monsters.
At the same time, Xuanmo and the others learned some things about evil soul masters from Davis through interrogation.
A moment later, Ma Hongjun couldn't hold back any longer and slammed his hand on the table, his tone urgent, "Brother Mo, what's your opinion on what that guy Davis said?"
"Based on what he said, I'm not sure either."
Xuanmo's expression remained unchanged as he put down his wine gourd.
At the same time, he tapped the table repeatedly with one finger. However, each tap felt like a chord in the hearts of the other seven monsters.
"However, it's clear they have grand ambitions."
"That's obvious."
Tang San suddenly spoke up, though his eyes were now somewhat gloomy. "I didn't expect these evil spirit masters might actually be connected to the City of Slaughter."
"But that's just our speculation."
Hearing Tang San's words, Oscar spread his hands, his tone slightly tense, and the worry on his face was no joke.
"No."
At this moment, Xuan Mo, whose eyes had already become somewhat serious, immediately denied Oscar. "Xiao San's deduction is probably correct. I'm afraid the evil spirit masters really are connected to the City of Slaughter. If that's the case…"
"If that's the case, then it's really bad."
Tang San picked up the conversation and sighed softly.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu looked worried and leaned on Tang San's shoulder.
Tang San, seeing this, knowingly stroked her hair, indicating that he was alright.
"I've been to the City of Slaughter. Even though you can't use your soul power there, the environment is very suitable for the growth of evil soul masters. If what Davis provided is true, and evil soul masters can establish themselves there, it's not good news."
At this point, Tang San's expression relaxed slightly.
"However, depending on the situation, it might not be bad news."
"Oh?"
Tang San's words instantly attracted everyone's attention, including Flander and the others who had been silent until now.
In an instant, Tang San became the focus.
The next second, Oscar asked,
"Third Brother, what did you mean by what you just said? Isn't that bad news?"
"Misfortune may be a blessing in disguise."
Tang San's expression remained calm, and he asked in return, "What if the City of Slaughter is destroyed?"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, only Xuan Mo reacted, his heart slightly stirred.
"Little San, let me ask you. When you say destruction, do you mean the destruction of Slaughter City itself, or the complete annihilation of all living beings within it?!"
"Huh?!"
"Completely annihilated?! That's an exaggeration!"
Unlike the other six Shrek Seven Devils who were shocked, Flander and the others looked thoughtful. Clearly, they had already grasped the meaning behind Xuan Mo and Tang San's words.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Tang San smiled and explained, "Actually, when I was traversing that Hell Road in Slaughter City, I threw a Snow-Colored Swan Kiss into that River of Blood..."
"Snow-Colored Swan Kiss? What's that?"
Just then, Ma Hongjun suddenly asked. However, as soon as he asked the question, he was locked onto by everyone's gaze.
Then... "Bang bang bang..."
Several large bumps instantly appeared on Ma Hongjun's head, and they were constantly steaming.
Xiao Wu, standing to the side, blew on her fist and glared fiercely at Ma Hongjun.
"Fatty, Third Brother is talking, why are you interrupting! Listen first!"
"Sorry, I'm guilty."
Ma Hongjun's interruption didn't bother the others much. Tang San continued, "The Snow-Colored Swan Kiss is a celestial herb, and its only effect is activation. The Bloody Mary in the Slaughter City contains a slow-acting toxin that can make people stronger through killing, and can also subtly change their mind and body. So this celestial herb can make that slowly-acting poison exert its effects a thousand times more. So the Slaughter City should be destroyed."
"So what you mean, Little San, is that evil spirit masters can also..." Oscar touched his chin with his right hand, understanding.Oscar didn't continue speaking, and Tang San nodded slightly.
"If nothing unexpected happens, that should be the case."
But then, the tone changed again. Tang San's originally calm expression changed slightly, "However..."
"Little San, are you afraid that evil spirit masters have other methods?"
Hearing Xuan Mo's words, Tang San admitted his concern. "Indeed, judging from the information we got from Davis, the Holy Spirit mentioned by the evil soul masters is quite strange."
"Indeed, so we must take action."
Xuan Mo's eyes turned unusually serious, and at the same time, a murderous aura emanated from his body.
"This organization of evil soul masters, the Holy Spirit Clan, not only traveled overseas to Douluo Continent, but also established a solid foundation here. Every large-scale operation involves slaughtering lives to build altars. According to my deduction, these altars are not simple, but the problem is that we haven't figured out the situation yet."
"Bang!"
At this point, everyone's minds flashed back to that horrific scene. Then, they were startled by the loud thud caused by Xuan Mo, who was furious, slamming his fist on the table.
"So we can't be careless with these beasts!"
"Then, Brother Mo, you mean..."
Under Ning Rongrong's comforting words, Xuan Mo forcibly suppressed his anger. After hearing Tang San's words, he gritted his teeth and said.
"We need to pay attention to their movements, especially in the City of Slaughter. And in my opinion, the Holy Spirit Cult might be a greater threat to us than the Spirit Hall."
"So…"
"Alright."
Just as the Shrek Eight Monsters were looking solemn, Flander and the other six suddenly spoke up, interrupting them.
They put down their teacups and said, "The matter of evil spirit masters is not for you to worry about right now."
"We old folks are still alive."
At this moment, Grandmaster also picked up where Flander left off, saying, "What you should be doing now is improving your own strength. Otherwise, nothing else matters."
"Grandmaster is right."
Ning Fengzhi put down his teacup, his expression serious.
"Father…"
