Chapter 403 How to Repay Huo Yuhao's Kindness; Counter-Terrorism Only Requires a List
Cola Novels makes reading always a chapter faster than others.
Qian Gu Die Ting quickly took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his superfluous thoughts, and then turned to Huo Yuhao respectfully, saying:
"Ancestor, the foolish things that Qian Gu Dong Feng did are simply unforgivable. But I still have to swallow my pride and beg you to give the Qian Gu family a chance to redeem themselves."
My entire family, throughout the ages, will surely serve our ancestors with utmost loyalty and devotion.
The group of people who had been watching with amusement as the father beat his son with Seven Wolves cigarettes now turned their attention back to Huo Yuhao.
Leng Yaozhu, in particular, felt even more uneasy.
She knew that her ability to quickly gather and integrate the forces within the Spirit Pagoda was almost entirely due to the support and assistance Huo Yuhao had secretly provided beforehand.
If his recent performance fails to satisfy Huo Yuhao, and the other party wants to take back everything and plunge the Tianfeng family, which has finally climbed up, back into the abyss, it's just a matter of a word.
Huo Yuhao slightly raised his eyes and glanced indifferently at Qian Gu Die Ting, who still looked respectful.
He had to admit in his heart that the other party was indeed worthy of being the previous tower master of the Spirit Pagoda.
This ruthless self-inflicted injury, coupled with sincere words of feigned retreat, was indeed a good way to preserve the family.
But no matter what, Qian Gu Die Ting is a quasi-god level powerhouse, and Qian Gu Dong Feng is a demigod; they are not some stray dogs that can be found anywhere on the roadside.
Faced with the imminent threat of an invasion from the Abyss Plane, the entire Douluo Plane should have gathered as much strength as possible to unite and defend against the external enemy.
Of course, the more important reason is that it is not worth wasting the immortal spiritual energy that he had painstakingly accumulated in the Dragon God's remains on something that would not benefit the overall situation, such as directly blasting away the Thousand Ancient Court.
Meanwhile, Qian Gu Die Ting had not received a reply from Huo Yuhao for a long time, and his back was completely soaked with cold sweat.
He even anxiously considered whether he should take the initiative to ask Huo Yuhao to use the brass belt in his hand to whip Qian Gu Dongfeng a few times to vent his anger.
Just as he was lost in thought, Huo Yuhao finally broke the silence with a calm voice:
"You can atone for your sins with good deeds, and I can give you that chance. But the Qian Gu family must pay the price for this incident today, completely step down from the position of the Spirit Pagoda Master, and never again be allowed to touch core power."
"Yes, I understand that perfectly well. I will follow the arrangements of our ancestors."
Qian Gu Die Ting felt as if he had been granted a pardon and immediately and respectfully agreed.
He was afraid that if he answered even a second too late, Huo Yuhao would change his mind.
"One more thing, to ensure everything goes perfectly, both you and Qian Gu Dong Feng must sign this soul contract to avoid any trouble later."
As Huo Yuhao spoke, he chanted a spell and waved his right hand, and two sheepskin scrolls radiating a gray-gold glow fell into Qian Gu Die Ting's hands.
Qian Gu Die Ting felt a tremor in his heart upon seeing this extremely bizarre scroll.
But the current situation is pressing, leaving him no room for further thought or hesitation.
With the soul contract successfully signed, Zang Xin, who had been silently observing from the sidelines, smiled and said:
"Since things have already developed to this point, War God Douluo should not mind if I take the Eternal East Wind directly to the Federation War God Temple for a final detailed examination, right?"
We need to see if we can recover that lost God-Slaying Fixed-Mount Soul-Guided Cannon Shell.
Qian Gu Die Ting raised his hand without hesitation, his tone resolute: "I entrust my useless son to the federal government for impartial judgment."
If the subsequent investigation reveals any area where our Qian Gu family needs assistance, the federal government is welcome to make a request, and we will fully cooperate.
Zang Xin shook his head slightly, not responding to Qian Gu Die Ting's words, but instead turned to Huo Yuhao, bowed respectfully, and said:
"I will not reveal a single detail of what happened today to the outside world. I also hope that Master Lingbing will have the time to visit our Federation's Temple of War in person next time."
Even after Zang Xin took the Eternal East Wind away, Leng Yaozhu, who had been on edge the whole time, remained in a daze.
Or perhaps, the long-cherished wish of the Tianfeng family to control the Spirit Transmission Tower, which had lasted for hundreds of years, was so easily fulfilled at this moment, with the help of such a casual remark from their ancestor.
She still finds it hard to believe this dreamlike result.
Leng Yulai, standing to the side, understood the meaning behind her sister's expression and found it somewhat amusing.
However, upon reflection, it seemed quite necessary to hasten the implementation of the plan she had secretly devised in her mind.
But at this moment, she secretly reached out her finger and quietly poked Leng Yaozhu, transmitting her voice in an annoyed tone:
"My dear sister, stop standing there in a daze. It's your turn to take the stage now. It's time to prepare for the handover ceremony of the new tower master of the Spirit Pagoda."
……
In a secluded underground stronghold in a hidden chamber somewhere in Tiandou City, the Ghost Emperor was watching the Soul Guidance Television in front of him with utter boredom.
When a grand handover ceremony for the new master of the Spirit Pagoda suddenly appeared on the channel, he was clearly taken aback for a moment, then a sneer of disdain appeared on his lips.
"Interesting. This ancient family is truly an eye-opener. They actually handed over the core power of the Spirit Pagoda, which they had controlled for thousands of years, so easily."
But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Qian Gu Dong Feng was a good-for-nothing, an arrogant and conceited fool. It's not too surprising that the position of the Spirit Pagoda Master fell into someone else's hands.
It's a pity that our Holy Spirit Cult will lack an easy scapegoat in the future. However, the good news is that our long-planned scheme will soon be fully launched, plunging the entire continent into endless chaos.
I wonder if that scoundrel Qian Gu Dong Feng will live to see the day he gets to watch the show, hehehehe…”
In the end, the Ghost Emperor couldn't help but let out a series of sinister, triumphant laughs, making the already cramped secret room even colder.
……
Inside the Southern Army Corps Commander's office.
With his white hair and beard, and still standing tall and straight like a pine tree, Le Zheng'en, dressed in a crisp military uniform, was focused on dealing with the mountain of military documents piled up on his desk.
On a nearby table, a soul-guided radio was broadcasting live the grand ceremony of the handover of the Spirit Pagoda's master.
When he heard that Leng Yaozhu had been announced as the new tower master, Le Zheng'en paused slightly as he wrote, pondering to himself.
"As expected of the Spirit Ice Ancestor, he was able to force the Qian Gu Clan to abdicate in such a short time."
Now that the core magic array of the Angelic Forbidden Land has received his latest plan, perhaps the ancestor will soon be able to stabilize the broken angelic divine essence and return to the world.
"Our Holy Angel family has lay dormant for so many years; it is time, under the guidance of the Angel God, to exert all our strength to resist the full-scale invasion of the Abyss!"
Le Zheng'en's gaze was unusually firm, and the huge angel portrait hanging on the wall behind him, at this moment, with the rise and fall of his emotions, also faintly emitted a holy hazy glow, illuminating the entire office.
……
Mingdu, Federal Parliament House, inside the office of the Deputy Speaker.
With a stern face and dressed in a bright yellow robe, Yu Guanzhi, the commander of the Central Army Corps, who was nearly eighty years old but still vigorous, withdrew his gaze from the Soul Guidance Television.
He turned to look at Chen Xinjie, who sat in the main seat with a calm and composed expression, and said with undisguised admiration:
"Senior Brother, you really are a prophet. I never expected that this ancient family would actually be willing to give up the position of Tower Master."
Yu Guanzhi was genuinely surprised.
Although Qian Gu Die Ting is over two hundred years old and his physical functions are no longer at their peak, he still possesses genuine quasi-god cultivation.
Moreover, as an independent and enormous organization, the Spirit Pagoda's leader is not like the Federation Speaker, whose position is ultimately just a figurehead chosen by various Soul Master factions through compromise.
When the Speaker of the Federal Parliament faces a situation where he needs to apologize to the public or quell public anger, he can simply announce his resignation and go through the motions of electing a new one.
This is why, even though Qian Gu Dongfeng committed a heinous crime by losing a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell capable of destroying a city, the federal government could still only wrangle and negotiate with the Qian Gu family.
Even now that Chen Xinjie has become a god, he cannot forcefully use force to compel the Qian Gu family, whose status in the Federation is almost equal to theirs, to abdicate.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xinjie's eyes flickered slightly, and he replied calmly, "The outcome of this matter was already predetermined, and we don't need to pay too much attention to it or interfere."
In contrast, I'm more concerned about the situation regarding the Abyss Passage that the Blood God Legion is suppressing.
When Yu Guanzhi saw Chen Xinjie bring up serious matters, he immediately suppressed his smile and his expression turned serious.
"Senior Brother, you have repeatedly reminded us to guard against the Abyss's large-scale invasion, but the recent intelligence is a bit strange. Could the Abyss really launch a full-scale attack as you said?"
The seal on the abyss passage currently guarded by the Blood God Legion remains stable, showing no signs of breaking. In fact, the frequency of abyss tides has decreased significantly in recent years.
Based on the intelligence brought back by several Blood Gods who ventured into the Abyss Passage to investigate, it seems the Abyss Dimension, unable to break through our Douluo Dimension for an extended period, is considering actively severing the Abyss Passage.

"Foolish!"
Chen Xinjie unusually raised his voice and said sternly:
"The Abyss Plane first invaded our Douluo Plane more than 6,000 years ago. Countless ancestors paid an extremely heavy price to barely seal and block the Abyss Passage."
But the monsters of the Abyss Plane still covet the life energy of the Douluo Plane at all times. Having tasted its benefits, how could they possibly choose to give up and leave so easily?
The more abnormal this situation, the more vigilant we need to be. Immediately issue my order: all legions must enter a state of wartime readiness. No one is to be negligent in the slightest; anyone who disobeys will be punished according to military law!
Chen Xinjie finished speaking in one breath, and then glanced at the specially made communication soul tool that had just vibrated.
He then frowned and said, "Zang Xin has sent word that Qian Gu Dong Feng has confessed under interrogation that he did indeed trade the God-Slaying Fixed-Equipment Soul-Guided Cannonball to the Holy Spirit Cult."
"If the Holy Spirit Cult were to use this shell to strike the Blood God Legion, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Upon hearing Chen Xinjie's words, Yu Guanzhi's expression changed drastically, and he immediately stood up and slammed his hand on the desk.
"Damn it, that damned Qian Gu Dong Feng actually dared to do such a heinous thing! That's a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannonball, I'm going to kill that bastard right now."
Seeing Yu Guanzhi about to rush out the door, Chen Xinjie raised his hand and waved him back to his seat, stopping him, saying, "This matter is not urgent. Qian Gu Dong Feng has other uses."
I previously instructed you to secretly investigate the possible collusion between the Tang Clan and the Holy Spirit Cult. What substantial results have you found?
Yu Guanzhi took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, shook his head, and said with a headache, "Senior Brother, those bastards are very stubborn."
Even after using various forms of torture on the recently arrested groups of evil spirit masters, no useful direct evidence was extracted from them. Of course, it's also possible that they simply didn't know the specific movements of the higher-ups.
Moreover, although the Tang Clan has been in seclusion for a long time, its relationships within the Federation remain complex. If our actions are too obvious, they might directly attract Harosa's attention.
Chen Xinjie slowly stood up, retiecing the slightly disheveled buttons on his military uniform, his eyes revealing a cold, thoughtful expression.
"Since conventional methods can't find anything, we should use swift and decisive measures during this special period."
As the saying goes, catching bad guys requires solid evidence, but when it comes to terrorist organizations that could threaten the entire federal government, all we need is a list.
Once I've selected reliable candidates for the mission, I'll launch a surprise attack on the Tang Clan's base in Tian Dou City. I refuse to believe they can hide their true intentions completely.
……
Qiankun Asking Love Valley is a small world specifically opened for girls to undergo divine trials.
Under a clear blue sky, a gentle sea breeze is blowing.
Wearing a sexy pink one-piece see-through swimsuit that showed off her beautiful figure, Ning Rongrong was lounging on a beach chair, enjoying a rare sunbath.
She would occasionally raise her hand and comment on the few girls who were engaged in combat training with various ferocious sea spirit beasts in the turbulent ocean not far away.
Although only a little over six months have passed in the outside world.
But the seven girls in this divine testing space now look much more mature than when they first entered, with their appearance and demeanor having matured considerably, as if they had suddenly aged several years.
