Douluo Reborn: The Silver Dragon Returns, but Regrets End

Chapter 284 East China Sea Crisis
It was drizzling for several days. The weather at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters had been gloomy, with continuous drizzle, and the atmosphere seemed particularly gloomy.

Gu Yue was still handling her work as usual, occasionally glancing at the gloomy sky outside, her brows slightly furrowed, as if the gloomy weather had also affected her mood.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on her office door. Gu Yue withdrew her gaze from the window and said softly, "Come in."

A staff member of the Spirit Pagoda stood respectfully at the door and said to Gu Yue, "Sir, the Spirit Pagoda Master invites you to the conference room." Gu Yue nodded slightly, put down the documents in his hand, stood up gracefully, and walked slowly towards the conference room.

Arriving at the door of the conference room, Gu Yue gently pushed the door open. In the conference room, Qian Gu Dong Feng sat in the main seat, looking solemn, as if a heavy burden was weighing on his heart. Seeing Gu Yue coming in, Qian Gu Dong Feng nodded slightly and motioned her to sit down.

"Grandpa, I'm preparing the soul-guided weapons I'm going to use. Is there something wrong?" Gu Yue asked softly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Qian Gu Dong Feng's face was somewhat gloomy. "No need to prepare. The Federation just sent people to the Spirit Pagoda." He paused for a moment, and then continued, "They are concerned about some of our recent actions at the Spirit Pagoda, especially in the research and development of soul-guided weapons. They believe that our actions may disrupt the existing balance of power and bring about instability."

Gu Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and asked doubtfully, "Then should we listen to the Federation?"

Qiangu Dongfeng shook his head, then sighed, "Look at this." As Qiangu Dongfeng finished speaking, a shocking picture appeared directly on the projection screen in the conference room.

On the edge of the ocean, thousands of alien creatures rushed towards the city like crazy, and the entire East Sea City was almost in a desperate situation in an instant. Those creatures had different shapes, some were as big as a hill, and some were as agile as lightning, but each of them was extremely brave and had no fear of death. With such a perverted charge, the strength of the East Sea City guards was instantly destroyed. Those creatures rushed into the city without scruples and began to frantically kill innocent residents. The bloody scene was unbearable to watch.

Qiangu Dongfeng said solemnly: "The Federation came here precisely because of this matter. Now that Donghai City has fallen, other coastal cities are also in danger. We in the Spiritual Pagoda must send people to provide support immediately."

Gu Yue frowned and asked, "Is it so serious?"

Qiangu Dongfeng nodded and said, "The first East China Sea Corps to support suffered heavy losses, and the nearest South China Sea Corps has already established a defense line outside East China Sea City. East China Sea City has been basically occupied by Abyss Creatures. The reason why East China Sea City is a place with developed economy and trade is because of its convenient transportation and location in a plain area. If the Abyss Creatures completely break through the East China Sea City defense line and march straight in, with their numbers, once they are dispersed, it will be difficult to organize an effective defense. By then, this Douluo Continent will be destroyed in an instant."

Gu Yue's expression also became extremely serious. She said solemnly: "Grandpa, we must act as soon as possible. If one person dies, the other will be in trouble!"

Qiangu Dongfeng nodded and said in a deep voice: "Go and make arrangements first, we will be ready and leave immediately."

"Yes, grandpa." Gu Yue walked out immediately.

Not long after Gu Yue left, an old man with a gloomy face walked into the meeting room. Qiangu Dongfeng immediately stood up: "Father."

Qiangu Zhangting asked, "How is it?" Qiangu Dongfeng changed his calm expression and said, "Crazy people, these crazy people. They are really crazy. They actually colluded with the Abyss Plane, and the collusion is so thorough. After all, they are human beings!"

At this time, a man who looked somewhat like Qiangu Dongfeng walked in and said in a cold voice: "I have told you a long time ago that cooperating with them is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger."

Qiangu Dongfeng suddenly turned around and looked at Qiangu Qingfeng, "I don't regret that. If I were given another chance, I would still throw two God-killing-level soul-guided shells at Shrek Academy. If we don't blow up Shrek, when will we ever be able to make a breakthrough? Facts have proved that I did nothing wrong. The only mistake I made was that I failed to eradicate the root of the problem."

Qiangu Qingfeng's eyes flashed coldly, but he said nothing more.

Qiangu Dieting said coldly: "Those guys from the Holy Spirit Church can no longer be called human beings. What they want is the energy of death and destruction. And what the Abyss Plane wants is the energy of life. All life will release destruction and death energy when it dies, so there is no conflict between the two. It seems that their behavior is crazy, but in fact, they all have their own plans."

"What the Abyss Plane wants is to devour our entire Douluo Plane as a stepping stone for its own evolution into the God Realm. And what the Holy Spirit Church wants is the aura of death and destruction emitted by all creatures in our entire Douluo Plane when they die, to help them reach the God level. We should have thought of it earlier, and the Abyss creatures are their best choice for real partners. But I didn't expect that the Abyss Plane actually has the ability to open another tunnel."

Qian Gu Dong Feng stood there somewhat absentmindedly, muttering, "Then what should we do?"

Qiangu Dieting's eyes flashed with coldness, "What do you think? Aren't you talking nonsense? Apart from fighting together, what else can we do? If the entire plane doesn't exist, can the Spirit Transfer Tower still exist? If the skin is gone, where will the hair be attached?"

Qian Gu Dong Feng hesitated and said, "Do we really have to cooperate with Shrek Academy?"

Qiangudi Ting said angrily: "Are you out of your mind? I asked you to inherit my position because you had enough thinking ability. Why are you so flustered when encountering things? What's the big deal about losing an arm? There are many ways to recover. The most important thing is to get through the difficulties in front of us. What we have to do is not only to fight against the abyss, but also to take this opportunity to find a way to weaken Shrek and Tang Sect in the battle. This war may not be a bad thing for us."

At this point, a gleam of light flashed in Qiangu's pupils: "This time, the Beast King Palace will also come, and we can also get to know them a little bit through this time."

Qian Gu Dong Feng was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what his father meant. He took a deep breath and said, "I understand. I'll arrange it right away."

Qiangu Dongfeng left, and only Qiangu Dieting and his son Qiangu Qingfeng were left in the room.

"I'm leaving too." Qiangu Qingfeng stood up and wanted to leave.
