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

"Xianlin'er, you really don't understand your current situation!"

Lan Feng sneered, "From the moment I spiked your food, I never thought my family would survive until the end of the war. I, Lan Feng, can die, the entire Lan family can die, but your entire Sea God Pavilion clan will be buried with my Lan family, hahahahaha..."

Lan Feng grew increasingly frenzied, increasing the force with which he beat Xian Lin'er until she screamed in pain.

madman!

Xian Lin'er cursed Lan Feng a million times in her heart, but there was nothing she could do. After all, she had trampled on Lan Feng's face before, so it was only natural that he would retaliate.

No, absolutely not. She can't just sit here and wait to die. She has to do something. Even if she dies, she has to die a quick and painless death.

Thinking of this, perhaps out of a survival instinct, Xian Lin'er actually broke free from Lan Feng's restraints and hurriedly crawled to Zhu Ningyu's carriage, kowtowing three times.

"Lord Ningyu, I am willing to surrender. I, Xian Lin'er, am willing to surrender. I will do anything Lan Feng can do. Please... please give me a chance, please give me a chance, okay?"

Upon hearing this, the senior officers of the Deep Sea Army turned around and looked at Xian Lin'er, who was kowtowing repeatedly, with extremely shocked expressions.

Will even the most loyal followers of the sea god surrender?

How ugly!

At this moment, a high-ranking general in blue armor stepped out from the crowd, knelt on one knee facing Zhu Ningyu's carriage, and said, "General, since the Martial God Douluo has shown remorse, our Ningyun Sect is open-minded and should give him a chance to reform."

"I propose that we allow the Martial God Douluo to atone for her crimes by recruiting her into the Deep Sea Legion. She can serve as the vanguard when we attack Shrek City!"

The general kept his head low, and where no one could see him, he revealed a villainous smile.

His entire family was killed by the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan.

They harbored deep hatred for the Sea God's lineage.

Rather than personally wielding his sword to annihilate those old blind lamps of the Sea God Pavilion, he would much rather see the Soul Masters, who were once fellow believers of the Sea God, kill each other!

At this moment, almost all the transformed soul beasts belonging to the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan knelt down to "plead" for Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er.

They knew their master's character very well; he was definitely not the kind of stupid, overly kind person who would resort to any means necessary.

Letting the Sea God Pavilion fight amongst themselves is definitely the simplest way to erode the faith in the Sea God.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Ningyu nodded and said, "Very well, since everyone is pleading for Martial God Douluo, and I am not the kind of person who is heartless, let's put aside the past crimes for now. I hereby appoint Xian Lin'er as the commander of the Po Lu Guard, under the command of Blazing Sun Douluo Lan Feng, and select one thousand Soul Masters from the surrendered soldiers to serve as the main force."

After saying that, Zhu Ningyu waved her hand, and the carriage started moving again, entering Jialing Pass.

……

Under Xu Guiyue's leadership, the intelligence department of the Sun Moon Empire worked overtime and in less than three days, the news that the Deep Sea Fleet had captured Jialing Pass without bloodshed spread throughout the entire Douluo Continent.

Even so, the Sea God Pavilion still sends members of the inspection teams to the Douling and Xingluo Empires, or the Sea God Pavilion family's trained assassins to participate in the defense of the city. They do not seek to repel the armies of the Sun Moon Empire and Ningyun Sect, but only to delay enough time for the third generation of Sea God to descend into the world and become the "savior" of Douluo Continent once again.

"Shuang'er, go to Lingdou City in my stead and command the Soul Masters under the Sea God Pavilion. Remember, the main priority is to delay them. Do not launch a counterattack unless you are absolutely certain of victory."

In the top-floor office of the Sea God Pavilion, Chen Yu spoke while taking out a deep blue token from his pocket and pushing it in front of Lu Qingshuang.

Upon seeing the token in front of her, Lu Qingshuang's expression froze instantly.

"Yu, Sister Yu, I... I dare not go to Lingdou City. I'm afraid that one day I won't be able to resist going to seek refuge with Zhu Ningyu."

As she spoke, Lu Qingshuang could no longer control her emotions, and her beautiful eyes became misty.

Ugh!

Seeing Lu Qingshuang's aggrieved look, Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh, and an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart.

Chen Yu slowly said, "Go if you want to go. Zhu Ningyu is right. No one has the right to stop someone from pursuing their dreams."

ah???????

Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshuang frowned, then stared at Chen Yu in front of her with an extremely shocked look.

Is this something that you, Chen Yun, the third-generation inheritor of the Sea God, could say?

Hearing this, Chen Yu took a deep breath, pointed in the direction of the Heavenly Soul Empire, and said in an icy tone, "A Soul Master legion can reach Maple Leaf City in just half a day if it sets off from Shrek City at full speed. When Maple Leaf City is besieged by the Deep Sea Legion, those old fogies of the Sea God Pavilion are unwilling to send troops to support it. Instead, they let the five major families hand over the southern part of the Heavenly Soul Empire and hold the Jialing Pass and Baishui Pass line. When the Heavenly Soul Empire's army suffers heavy casualties, they will use moral blackmail to force the Body Sect to participate in this war, thereby weakening the Body Sect's strength."

"As a result, Jialing Pass was taken over by the Sun Moon Empire's army without bloodshed, and Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er surrendered. It was only a matter of time before the Sun Moon Empire occupied the entire Heavenly Soul Empire. Now, those old 'closed-lamp' types are still unwilling to participate in the war. They just keep sending troops out to delay the time and pin their hopes on me and Huo Yuhao."

"Under these circumstances, you want me to continue proclaiming that the Sea God Pavilion is invincible, that Shrek Academy is invincible, and that we will definitely achieve final victory, to smear the Sun Moon Empire and the Condensing Cloud Sect, and to brainwash those genius soul masters into believing they will live and die with Shrek City? Isn't that ridiculous?"

"From the moment Qian Xunhuan refused to join the Sea God Pavilion, some people had already lost!"

"For every Zhu Ningyun who dies, there will be thousands more. Welfare is never bestowed by those in power, but rather fought for by the people at the bottom through resistance!"

Chen Yu's words were remarkably insightful. She had long foreseen the inevitable failure of the Sea God Pavilion. Putting aside everything else, the stagnant attitude of Tang San, Huo Yuhao, and others made it difficult to see a future in them.

In his previous life, Huo Yuhao was incredibly successful. Apart from the pain of losing his mother in his childhood, he didn't experience much hardship as he grew from a quasi-Soul Master to a Supreme God King.

But so what? You, Great God-King Huo, still died in the chaos of the divine realm, your remaining soul arriving in this world, taking the place of your childhood self. (End of Chapter)
