Chapter 1671: Chapter 1671: Holy Spirit Cult’s Master

“Hmm.” Ling Zichen in front of him was always somewhat unable to assert herself. Tang Wulin waved his large hand, a golden light swept, taking her away with him.

Gu Yuena, however, did not follow but instead came to Lan Xuanyu, smiled slightly, and said, “You did very well today.”

Lan Xuanyu looked at his mother, smiled, and said, “It’s the first time I’ve seen you dressed like this. You’re truly beautiful.”

Gu Yuena couldn’t help but laugh, “You’re very beautiful too. I wish I had a daughter like you.”

Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but have a hint of awkwardness on his forehead, Bai Xiuxiu beside him almost burst out laughing.

Getting teased by his own mom, especially in such a circumstance, he also felt helpless!

Gu Yuena changed the subject and said, “I believe there will be a result soon. You can go back to Shrek Academy and wait.”

“Thank you.” Lan Xuanyu thanked again, and then left the Congress Hall with Bai Xiuxiu and Jialin.

The Ming Mountain Range is very famous in the history of Soul Land. The current Soul Land is formed by the original Soul Land and later stages of movement and collision with planetary continental plates. The Ming Mountain Range was created from the collision of two continents.

In that era, the Sun Moon Empire from Sun Moon Land and the two great empires on Soul Land had a war that spread across the entire continent.

Now, on a high peak of the Ming Mountains. The elderly Qiangu Qingfeng leaned on a cane, gazing into the distance, his eyes slightly hazy.

Some things cannot be avoided. He originally thought that his overall aura had undergone a drastic change, and no one could possibly recognize him, not even his old acquaintances. Yet, he didn’t expect to be recognized immediately. In fact, even he was about to forget that name.

Tang Wulin is still Tang Wulin after all!

He didn’t try to flee because he knew it was meaningless. When that person called out his name, he understood it wasn’t a presence he could contend with.

Golden light flashed, and two figures suddenly appeared behind him.

“Meeting old friends is truly a cause for endless emotion! In terms of seniority, you are still my predecessor.” Tang Wulin looked calmly at the back of Qiangu Qingfeng, who was facing away from him.

Qiangu Qingfeng slowly turned around, looking complicatedly at the presence that still had the youthful appearance he once did, with a bitter smile, “Yes! Truly endless emotion. Who would have thought I’d see you again near the end of my days.”

Tang Wulin said, “With your status, you should have recognized me and Gu Yue long ago.” After all, he was a singer for so long, and Gu Yuena was frozen and revived by the research institute. The Fighting Sky Department has the most information, there’s no way this person wouldn’t know.

Qiangu Qingfeng smiled bitterly, “I did speculate later and vaguely felt it. But I didn’t want to help you recover your memories. Perhaps I just wanted to live a few more years in my waning years.”

“Then why did you come out today?” Tang Wulin asked.

Qiangu Qingfeng smiled bitterly, “Unwillingness, I suppose. Seeing you always brings about anger. After all, we can say that our family was ruined by you and Gu Yuena. How could I not harbor resentment? But who would’ve thought it brought my downfall. Can you tell me, how did you recognize me?”

Tang Wulin looked deeply at him and said, “Because you’re not just the Minister of the Fighting Sky Department of the Douluo Federation, but also the current master of the Holy Spirit Cult, right?”

Upon hearing this, Qiangu Qingfeng couldn’t help but tremble all over, while the air around Ling Zichen next to Tang Wulin suddenly became cold and sinister, with an intent to act.

Tang Wulin raised his hand to press Ling Zichen’s shoulder and looked calmly at Qiangu Qingfeng, saying, “Am I right?”

Qiangu Qingfeng seemed only now to gradually calm down, with a bitter voice, “You can see it all?”

Tang Wulin said indifferently, “Super God Level divine consciousness, but only the true god level fractured body, which itself is very unreasonable. Moreover, I’ve dealt with the Holy Spirit Cult too many times and know their traits all too well. Not to mention, you can live for ten thousand years. By what means?”

Qiangu Qingfeng looked at Ling Zichen, “Hasn’t she also lived for over ten thousand years?”

Ling Zichen snorted coldly, her right hand suddenly raised. In an instant, a deep, clear, clanging sound accompanied by an orange-red light sphere appeared in her palm. The orange-red light sphere looked only palm-sized, but when this sphere appeared, Qiangu Qingfeng felt his entire body quiver, and even his divine consciousness shook, causing him to retreat a few steps in shock.

“You, you’re not…”

Ling Zichen said blandly, “Shut your filthy mouth. I detest you disgusting Holy Spirit Cult members.”

Tang Wulin said, “So, you entered the Holy Spirit Cult to survive long?”

Qiangu Qingfeng sighed, “Since you’ve seen through it, there’s nothing left to hide. Yes, you’re right, I joined the Holy Spirit Cult. But you should also know that during these millennia, the Holy Spirit Cult has seemed to vanish, and hasn’t come out to do evil, right?”

Tang Wulin smiled slightly, “If not for this, I wouldn’t be talking with you so peacefully.”

Qiangu Qingfeng smiled bitterly, “Back then, when I was broken and left, I actually understood that the family hoped to extend its survival. After leaving alone, I felt indignant and, to be honest, I truly hated you, especially you and Gu Yuena. But I also knew I couldn’t confront you. When I learned you were frozen in Permafrost, I didn’t feel that joyful; after all, you did save humanity. Later, I sensed the benefits brought by planetary evolution and the higher intensity of life energy made cultivation easier. Through constant accumulation, I unexpectedly broke through and achieved the God Rank. From then on, my heart came back to life. The past things weren’t that significant anymore. After all, even though you and Gu Yuena were considered my enemies, you were already dead. Without enemies, I had longer life than before, so I had to do something.”

“Then I chose to return to the Spirit Pagoda while continuing to cultivate. Our Qiangu Family had been operating in Spirit Pagoda for so many years, there were still some channels. After returning, I disguised as a newcomer, and under friends’ cover and aid, gradually revealed my cultivation, step by step rising to higher levels. For this, I spent thirty years. But I was willing. At that time, I thought when I became the Pagoda Master, our Qiangu Family would be back.”

“But then a special opportunity arose. The federation wanted to establish the Fighting Sky Department. The Fighting Sky Department was jointly initiated by several organizations, aiming to execute more interstellar missions for the federation during the Interstellar Era. At that time, interstellar exploration hadn’t fully started. Yet, my many-year attempts to become Pagoda Master failed because I inadvertently revealed my identity. The Spirit Pagoda worried about targeting by Shrek Academy, naturally wouldn’t let me reach the top position. But they didn’t want to lose me, a God level strong. So, using the establishment of the Fighting Sky Department, they had me represent Spirit Pagoda; out of sight, out of mind. Knowing I had no chance in Spirit Pagoda, it was good to enter Fighting Sky Department — a new stage, a broader stage, nothing to bind me. So, I earnestly devoted myself in the Fighting Sky Department; for thousands of years now. Living long enough accumulates more merit, and eventually I became the Minister, a significant figure in the federation. I cherished authority, and life even more. The longer you live, the more you fear death. Thus, during my first sense of nearing life’s end, fear filled me. I tried all possible means to extend my life.”
