In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

"My two elder sisters... oh no, my two mothers, is the 'Blood Sea Plan' you're talking about referring to breaking through the level 100 barrier by devouring the soul power, soul, martial soul, and spiritual power of soul masters?"

Ah Ying clenched her little fists excitedly.

Zhu Ningyu said calmly, "That's how it is in theory, but in practice it will be a little different from what you imagine, but there won't be any major deviations."

"Since that's the case, let's just carry out the plan." Aying pouted, looking unhappy. "We all have our own ways to become gods, why should we become someone else's servant?"

Zhu Ningyun chuckled and said, "Little Bingyu, it's not as simple as you think. More than a decade ago, we created this Soul-Absorbing Bead. By stirring up trouble on the continent, we can absorb the souls of Soul Masters who die on the battlefield and compress them into the finest soul nourishment."

"The problem is... there are too few Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent, so it's impossible to make two people become gods at the same time through this method. Once the Blood Sea Project is launched, one of us sisters will have to make a sacrifice. The sacrifice is a small matter, but neither of us wants to have the blood of our loved ones on our hands."

"Hmph, Tang San deserves to die! Zhu Zhuqing, the God of Speed, only has a level seven innate soul power, while we soul masters with full innate soul power don't even qualify for the Divine Trial. If it really comes to that... I will slaughter the entire White Tiger Dai family, the Netherworld Zhu family, the Clear Sky Sect, Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, and the Sea God Pavilion. If they don't give us a way out, then none of us should live!"

Seeing Zhu Ningyun's gritted teeth, Zhu Zhuqing was speechless. If she wanted to fight or kill, she should go find Tang San. Why take her anger out on the Youming Zhu family? It wasn't her, Zhu Zhuqing, who made the rules.

"Then, what do we do?" A-Ying frowned. "Are we just going to the Star Dou Great Forest like this, to seek refuge with the soul beasts or the demon beast clan? Second Aunt went to great lengths to place her people in the middle and upper echelons of the four great empires, are we just going to hand them over to others like this?"

Two, second mother?

Zhu Ningyu was speechless. How shameless was A Ying? Those few times she called her "mother" were so intimate.

Zhu Ningyun said irritably, "When did I say I was going to join the Soul Beast or Demon Beast clan? We're going to cooperate! Don't you understand cooperation? As long as the beast race launches a beast tide, we can continuously collect soul nourishment through the Soul-Absorbing Pearl..."

Just then, Zhu Ningyun stopped speaking abruptly, gave Aying a nonchalant glare, slowly stood up, and walked out of the private room.

Zhu Ningyu, Aying, and Ma Xiaotao hurriedly followed.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart skipped a beat. Why did they leave so suddenly? Did she have her period?

Or...did the other party discover that Zhu Zhuqing was eavesdropping?

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing felt a little scared. She knew that the Silver Dragon King was very likely hiding somewhere in Douluo Continent. He was the incarnation of the Dragon God. Even if he was injured, dealing with her, a mere second-level god, would be a piece of cake.

Any normal man would have the urge to lock her in a secret room, making it the perfect reward for his troops.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing wished she could slap herself. She shouldn't have agreed to let that bastard Dai Mubai come and follow Zhu Ningyun and her group. Why did she insist on doing this without knowing the other party's actual strength?

Time ticked by, and Zhu Zhuqing leaned against the wall, motionless, not daring to even breathe, for fear that any movement would reveal her whereabouts.

After an unknown amount of time, just as Zhu Zhuqing was feeling anxious, a slightly muffled voice rang in her mind.

"Zhuqing, where are you? Zhu Ningyun and the others are almost out the street corner, why haven't you caught up yet?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt as if all her strength had been drained, and she slowly slumped to the ground, cold sweat instantly streaming down her forehead.

Fear, terror, and anxiety overwhelmed Zhu Zhuqing as she huddled in a corner, a torrent of negative emotions surging into her heart.

Even when facing the Rakshasa God Bibi Dong and the Angel God Qian Renxue, Zhu Zhuqing had never been this afraid. Those with nothing to lose are not afraid of those wearing shoes. Even if the allied forces were defeated and the Spirit Empire became the ultimate winner, the Shrek Seven Devils could simply die.

But if it falls into the hands of Zhu Ningyun and her group, well, a bunch of madmen researching the destruction of the world, they could do anything that violates the bottom line of human morality.

"Fatty, tell Oscar that we don't need to follow him anymore. Let's go straight back to Shrek City, organize the intelligence we've gathered, and report it to that person in the God Realm. How he makes his choice is his business."

After careful consideration, Zhu Zhuqing decided to give up tracking them. If nothing unexpected happened, Zhu Ningyun and her group would definitely head to the Star Dou Great Forest next. Without knowing the other party's background, it was best not to be reckless.

She didn't believe that the Shrek Five Monsters could defeat the Dragon God's incarnation. The so-called Nine Treasures Protective Divine Light that could withstand ten attacks from a God King, or the Netherworld White Tiger God-level Martial Soul Fusion Skill that was comparable in power to a first-level god, were all just lies to fool children.

After becoming gods, everyone will focus on developing divine skills and condensing divine artifacts based on their divine status. Who would still use their martial soul abilities? That's something that soul masters in the lower realms should do.

……

"That's the situation. According to Zhu Ningyun's description, they plan to break through the level 100 barrier by killing... that is, by using evil soul masters, and prepare to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to form an alliance with the demon beast clan and the soul beast clan to fight against the God Realm together."

In the conference room of the Sea God Pavilion, Zhu Zhuqing briefly organized the intelligence she had recently obtained and gently pushed it in front of Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong glanced at the intelligence report in front of her, her brows furrowed, and said, "But... the origins of the lineages of those weapon refiners, pharmacists, alchemists, and assemblers are still a mystery. There is no information about this. We... I'm afraid we won't be able to deliver."

Zhu Zhuqing said coldly, "Rongrong, we only have the cultivation of a second-level god. It is not easy for us to find this information. There are many places in Douluo Continent that we cannot go to. No matter how unreasonable Tang San is, he should not ask us to do things beyond our capabilities."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai, as the leader of the Shrek Five Monsters, had no choice but to report the information he had obtained to Tang San in the God Realm in the most concise language.

Of course, all the information about the original Tang San had been processed. Dai Mubai only said that Ye Xishui saw a male phantom in Qin Yi's memory, a male phantom that looked very much like Ah Yin.

"Old Dai, what's the probability that the male phantom in Qin Yi's memory is the mastermind behind it all?"

Tang San frowned, his slightly authoritative voice traveling through the golden ancient tree into Dai Mubai's mind. (End of Chapter)
