Douluo Dragon King: I, the wielder of the Holy Sword, will vanquish all evil.

Chapter 218 News
Su Wuyan quickly recovered from his shock; he was used to it. He coughed lightly to ease the atmosphere: "Ahem, Tower Master Leng, I'm sorry you had to see this. This brat didn't even say hello before coming back, doing this kind of thing."

She rolled her eyes at him, and Leng Yaozhu left with Na'er after exchanging pleasantries.

Gu Yue then said to Su Qiu, "Then I'll go to the academy first."

Only Su Wuyan and Su Qiu remained.

"boom."

The office door was gently closed, shutting out the outside world. The room fell silent, leaving only Su Wuyan and his nephew Su Qiu staring at each other.

"Perfect timing, I just had some good news to tell you." Su Wuyan said cheerfully.

"What a coincidence, I also have some big news to tell you." Su Qiu took two steps forward and rested her arm on the edge of the desk: "Tell me yours first, and see how big your good news is. Can it be more important than the bombshell I brought back?"

Su Wuyan cleared his throat and raised an eyebrow smugly: "That old bastard Qian Gu Dongfeng must have gone crazy for some reason, he promoted me to be the Spirit Transmission Inspector in Shrek City. What's wrong with your eyes, kid?"

“Alright, then I have some bad news for you.” Su Qiu shook his head with a strange expression: “Shrek City is going to be bombed.”

Su Wuyan: "?"

Su Wuyan's smug expression froze instantly, his brows furrowed, and the teacup he had just picked up stopped in mid-air: "What nonsense are you spouting? Shrek City is full of experts, who would dare to bomb it?"

"Holy Spirit Cult, God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonballs." Su Qiu dropped his playful grin, pulled his arm back from the edge of the table, and his tone turned serious.

Su Wuyan's hand trembled, spilling a few drops of tea. The pressure of a level 95 Super Douluo instantly filled the entire office, causing the documents on the desk to rustle loudly: "God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonball? How is that possible!"

Su Qiu shrugged. "I also hope it's impossible, but if I'm not mistaken, the Federation should already be out of God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannons."

"."

After a long silence, Su Wuyan did not doubt Su Qiu's words or question the source of the information. He suddenly stood up, walked quickly to the window, and looked down at the bustling city below, his expression frighteningly solemn.

When will they make their move?

"So Gu Yue went to deliver a message? Shrek Academy and Tang Sect must coordinate immediately!"

"I don't know." Su Qiu shook her head. "Maybe a few years from now, maybe tomorrow."

"Wait a minute." Su Wuyan suddenly realized: "If I didn't know this news, wouldn't I, who was in charge of Shrek City, have been stuck here until I was blown up by the God-Slaying Cannonball?"

"Oh dear, that bastard Qian Gu Dong Feng is digging a hole for me here."

"What a coincidence!"

Su Wuyan was furious: "He must be involved with the Holy Spirit Cult."

Even years ago, during his investigation of the Holy Spirit Cult, Su Wuyan had already begun to suspect Qian Gu Dong Feng based on subtle clues.

"Maybe." Su Qiu didn't say much. He would deal with Qian Gu Dong Feng, but not now.

After their conversation, Su Qiu turned and left the office. He took the soul-guided elevator downstairs, passed through the magnificent lobby of the Spirit Tower headquarters, and merged into the afternoon crowds of Shrek City.

The sunlight shone on him, but he didn't feel much warmth; instead, he felt a heavy sense of responsibility and urgency.

He looked up toward Shrek Academy, where a huge golden ancient tree came into view.

"There shouldn't be any problems, right?" he thought to himself.

In the original story, the Golden Ancient Tree withstood the main impact of the God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonball. This was even with Tang Wulin receiving 30% of its energy.

If they were at their peak, they should be able to completely stop it. Even if there are any remaining aftershocks, Shrek City is prepared and there is nothing to fear.

Therefore, Su Qiu will stop Tang Wulin from getting close to Seagod Island.

Whether Tang Wulin will absorb as much energy as before is actually irrelevant to him, but there can't be any problems before the God-Slaying Cannon issue is resolved.

Meanwhile, inside the Sea God Pavilion.

The atmosphere was indeed heavy, almost frozen. Elders Yun Ming, Ya Li, Zhuo Shi, and Feng Wuyu were present.

Everyone stared solemnly at Gu Yue, the girl standing calmly in the center of the conference room.

Su Qiu is too dazzling.

However, Gu Yue was not overlooked either, and had already caught the eye of Shrek Academy's higher-ups, receiving their close attention.

After all, apart from Su Qiu, there is no genius more outstanding than her.

And this highly anticipated genius has just finished stating his thoughts in the most concise and clear language.

The shocking news that "the Holy Spirit Cult has acquired at least one level 12 God-Slaying Soul-Guided Cannonball and has most likely secretly deployed it somewhere in Shrek City, intending to cause the largest possible casualties" was revealed.

As for the source of the information, she only said that she learned about it by chance from the Green Skull organization that was destroyed in the Star Luo Continent.

This reason may sound far-fetched, but these well-informed and powerful experts cannot afford to ignore it.

“Gu Yue student, do you know what your words mean?” Yun Ming spoke slowly, his voice calm yet carrying immense power.

"This means that if the intelligence is true and the academy is completely unprepared, millions of lives in Shrek City, as well as the academy's millennia-old foundation, could be wiped out." Gu Yue looked directly at Yun Ming, her silver eyes clear and firm. "I cannot guarantee the truth of the matter, after all, I am only reporting information that I learned by chance."

The meeting room was silent, save for heavy breathing. Ya Li gently grasped Yun Ming's hand, her eyes filled with worry. Zhuo Shi's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

Gu Yue's answer almost froze the air in the conference room.

She didn't make any guarantees, didn't emphasize personal intuition, and even pointed out the indirect nature of the intelligence source, but this "objectivity" made her statement seem more credible.

She wasn't trying to take credit; she was simply sending a warning that could overturn everything.

“We can’t guarantee its authenticity, but we must take action.” Yun Ming’s voice broke the silence as his gaze swept over each of the elders present. “It’s better to believe it’s true than not to. Especially when it comes to weapons that kill gods.”

"From now on, Shrek City is on high alert."

"Don't contact other forces yet, since the veracity of the information is still uncertain."

Ya Li nodded slightly. As a Holy Spirit Douluo, she was most sensitive to the unseen world. At this moment, her brows furrowed: "When I meditated recently, I did occasionally feel palpitations, as if a huge shadow was looming over the city. Now that I think about it..."

Yun Ming stood up and said decisively, "I'm going to the Federation."

Looking at the solemn expressions on everyone's faces, Yun Ming gently stroked Ya Li's hand and said in a slightly softer but firm tone: "If the Federation lost the God-Slaying Cannon, it must have known about it but deliberately concealed it. I'm not going there to ask for their support, but to find out where the cannon is."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "While I am away, Yali, use the power of the Holy Spirit to cover the entire city and sense the movements of the evil spirit masters."
