  Moreover, everyone knew that Shrek’s reconstruction must have been backed by the Tang Sect. However, he could not say anything publicly. The Federation could not possibly take away Shrek’s lands by force.

  The original Shrek City had been around before the Federation even existed. That piece of land belonged to Shrek. If the Federation confiscated it, it would be equivalent to an invasion.

  Even though Shrek was destroyed in that explosion, its influence on the continent still ran deep and wide. If the federal parliament dared to make such a brazen move, its days would be numbered.

  Hence, when the Holy Spirit Cult made it clear that it would not come to destroy Shrek, Qiangu Dongfeng realized that he was quite powerless to do anything.

  At the very least, Shrek Academy was supported by the Amorous Douluo and the Heartless Douluo. With the presence of the two great Limit Douluos, how would they suppress Shrek with martial force? There would be no excuse for the campaign.

  Under such circumstances, there was another disturbance in the Great Star Dou Forest. Qiangu Dongfeng could not keep himself from losing his temper. He had never felt as furious as he was feeling now.

  “Get to the bottom of it!”


  Naturally, he knew about the existence of the few Great Beasts. The Spirit Pagoda had always been in an agreement with the Great Beasts that they would not disturb each other. The Spirit Pagoda allowed them to rest there in peace, though the actual reason was that the Beast God was too powerful. It was too difficult to kill him.

  According to the instructions of their predecessors, they were actually waiting for the Beast God’s final divine punishment to hit him. When that day came, they would have the opportunity to turn the Beast God Di Tian into a spirit soul and add him to the Spirit Pagoda’s collection.

  If they could collect this Beast God’s spirit soul, the Spirit Pagoda would have its own treasured spirit soul. The Spirit Pagoda had already developed a way to keep spirit souls in existence for a prolonged period of time.

  For this reason, dozens of generations of Spirit Pagoda Masters had attempted to communicate with this Beast God, but they were all turned away.

  Fortunately, the Beast God had been behaving himself for the past few thousand years and did not make any trouble. Both parties co-existed peacefully. The predecessors of the Spirit Pagoda had passed on the information that Beast God’s divine punishment was imminent and the Spirit Pagoda could afford to wait. Once Beast God Di Tian’s divine punishment was about to befall him, being converted to a spirit soul would be his only way out of the cycle.

  The thought of possessing this Beast God’s spirit soul itself was utterly wonderful, and it would be the same for the other Great Beasts. If the Beast God became a spirit soul, the other Beasts would be easier to deal with. After all, they were not exactly invulnerable.

  After he had given the order for his people to investigate the Great Star Dou Forest, Qiangu Dongfeng squinted his eyes slightly.

  The current situation seemed calm on the surface. However, Shrek Academy was being rebuilt. Even without Yun Ming, Shrek would still be a great problem once it was reconstructed. This was because it had too many supporters.

  At the very least, once news of Shrek’s reconstruction went out, the Dove Faction’s had grown more of a backbone. The neutral parties were also starting to sway toward the Dove Faction. In the military, many high-ranking generals had shifted their association from the Hawk Faction to the neutral faction. These generals were all alumni of Shrek Academy.

  Without a doubt, Shrek had contacted them while it was being rebuilt. As the saying went, ‘pull a hair and the body is affected’. When an academy’s influence could reach such a stage, it definitely lived up to its reputation of being the best.

  ‘No, this can’t go on. We must at least create some news to maintain the Spirit Pagoda’s influence. We must clear away the negative image we have before this.’


  At this very moment, there was a knock at his door.

  “Come in!” Qiangu Dongfeng said with a deep voice.

  The door opened, and a tall, burly and high-spirited figure walked in from outside. It was one of the Spirit Pagoda’s four great spiriters, who was also Qiangu Dongfeng’s most beloved grandson, Qiangu Zhangting.

  “Zhangting, why are you here?” Qiangu Zhangting had been in secluded cultivation lately. When he saw his grandson, Qiangu Dongfeng was highly surprised.

  “Grandfather, I heard that Shrek Academy’s being rebuilt?” Qiangu Zhangting asked with a slight frown.

  Qiangu Dongfeng sighed softly. “Yeah! This is no small problem. Because of Shrek’s reconstruction, the situation in the parliament is shifting. Our great advantage is being broken down. Shrek has many supporters. If we can’t impede them in the early stages of the reconstruction, they will only pick up the pace in the future. Knowing Shrek and its hidden secrets, it won’t be long before they can bring back their former glory.”


  “Grandfather, I wonder if you’ve noticed something,” said Qiangu Zhangting suddenly.

  “What’s that?” Qiangu Dongfeng looked at his grandson, puzzled.

  Qiangu Zhangting’s eyes flickered with light. “Do you still remember that Gu Yuena and I have met a person from the Holy Spirit Cult at the train station? During that time, we’ve seen them walking with the Tang Sect’s current Sect Master, Tang Wulin.”


  “Hmm?” When he heard his grandson’s reminder, Qiangu Dongfeng quickly remembered the situation back then.

  Qiangu Zhangting’s eyes flashed with a frosty gleam. “Back then, I thought that Nana was looking at him in a strange way. Then, I did my own digging, and I found out that Shrek Academy has a traditional festival called the Sea God’s Fated Date Festival. I’m sure you know about this as well.”


  Qiangu Dongfeng nodded. “That’s Shrek Academy’s grand occasion.”


  Qiangu Zhangting continued with a cold tone, “Nana had been a student there, and that Tang Wulin was her classmate. Also, in the outer court, Tang Wulin was class monitor, while Nana was the deputy. They were even in the same team.”


  Qiangu Dongfeng had a slight frown. “Go on.”


  Qiangu Zhangting continued, “We already had this information, but there were some things that we didn’t know. I’ve bribed an outer court disciple who was dismissed by Shrek Academy, and he gave me an important piece of information. On the Sea God’s Fated Date Festival, Tang Wulin had proposed to Nana, and she had accepted his proposal back then.”


  “What did you say?” Qiangu Dongfeng was greatly surprised.

  Although the Spirit Pagoda had always been keeping an eye on the happenings in Shrek Academy, it was like an iron shield. Also, it had many experts on the inside, and it was very difficult to get any sort of information.

  Qiangu Zhangting snorted and said, “If Shrek Academy hadn’t been destroyed, it’d be difficult for me to bribe that dismissed outer court disciple, but what he said was completely true. Also, there’s another more important piece of information. Tang Wulin’s not only the current Tang Sect’s Sect Master. When he was still in Shrek Academy, he was the leader of this generation’s Shrek Seven Monsters.”


  Qiangu Dongfeng’s gaze flickered. That was right! He knew about Tang Wulin being the leader of the Shrek Seven Monsters. Shrek had never tried to conceal this. The only thing was that he seemed to have overlooked this fact. When Qiangu Zhangting reminded him of it in this manner, the dots were finally connected together, and he seemed to have an idea.

  Qiangu Zhangting said with a deep voice, “Although I was very envious after I got this information, I even wanted to question Nana right away, but I still restrained myself. Because it seems that this information is a means with which we can break this stalemate.”


  Qiangu Dongfeng beamed. “You’re saying that we’ll use the feelings Tang Wulin has for Gu Yuena?”


  Qiangu Zhangting nodded. “Their relationship should run deep. That’s the way it seems according to the description of the outer court disciple. Tang Wulin liked Nana, and Nana must’ve fancied him as well. Otherwise, Nana wouldn’t have accepted him on the Sea God’s Fated Date Festival. However, I wonder why Nana is still here with us. She should have made a choice already. Maybe she’s having some doubts. She knows that the Spirit Pagoda is a more suitable place for her development, but her heart still holds on to Tang Wulin. I reckon that Shrek Academy’s destruction was what gave her the resolve to follow us.”
