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

Yu Ying Douluo said with some difficulty, "Senior... Regardless of who committed the sin, since it has already happened, we cannot sit idly by and watch them grow stronger. Being unable to manage and being unable to manage are two different things. We are not the leaders of that force, and we cannot guarantee that they will never use that advanced soul guidance technology for military purposes."

"Their existence is like a sword hanging over the heads of both our camps. They might suddenly strike when we are both exhausted and take the final victory."

"That's at least a sensible thing to say," Bing Muxue said sarcastically. "From now on, just say what you mean directly. Don't give me that Poseidon's nonsense. It makes it seem like all the high-ranking officials in our empire are bad people, and only the people in Poseidon's Pavilion are good people?"

As she spoke, Bing Muxue took out a piece of intelligence from her storage bracelet and tossed it in front of Jade Shadow Douluo. "The officials of the former Tianhai Alliance, both high and low, are not opposed to restoring the imperial system. They have even voluntarily handed over their military power. Apart from their own garrison troops, all military power has been handed over to the Governor's Office."

Looking at the intelligence report in front of him, Jade Shadow Douluo's face also showed a solemn expression.

Humans are very strange creatures.

For someone in power, a capable but unassuming subordinate who blindly follows orders is more reassuring than one who frequently contradicts them.

As things stand, even if the one lurking in Tianhai City were to step forward and demand permission from the higher-ups of the Sun Moon Empire, or even if she were to establish a true duchy that obeys summons but not decrees, and possesses a degree of autonomy beyond paying due taxes, it wouldn't cause Bing Muxue such a headache.

After a moment of silence, Jade Shadow Douluo tentatively said, "How about... I set a trap, have their employees injure our Shrek Academy students, escalate the issue to a diplomatic level, and you can use this opportunity to search their properties."

Bing Muxue shook her head and said, "No, the Empire's higher-ups can cooperate with your Sea God Pavilion, but not like this. If we get too close, what will the higher-ups of the Spirit Pagoda think?"

Jade Shadow Douluo hesitated for a moment, then continued to suggest, "Then... let's change the protagonist and have the middle-level management of the Tianhai City Spirit Pagoda branch carry out this plan."

"Are you fucking deaf? That was a high-EQ way of putting it. It's not a problem with the person implementing it; it's just that your method is completely ineffective. You're making it so obvious. Do you think everyone's an idiot?"

Enraged, Bing Muxue grabbed the documents from the table and hurled them at Jade Shadow Douluo.

You don't even know how many Limit Douluos or Level 4 Battle Armor Masters the other side has, yet you try to use intimidation to spy on them. Do you think you're living too comfortably?

This is the kind of person from the Sea God Pavilion. If any member of her Ice Jade Scorpion family dares to utter a wise word, she will hang that person up and beat them.

"You're a complete idiot, good for nothing, a useless idiot who can't even eat properly, and you still dare to be a diplomat... Humph, you should just go home and take care of your kids!"

Bing Muxue slammed her fist on the table in anger, her impression of the Sea God Pavilion plummeting to its lowest point. Was the Sea God Pavilion out of its mind? Couldn't they even send out a leader with a normal brain?

However… when Bing Muxue thought of Cai Yue'er’s willful and capricious behavior, her anger vanished instantly.

Good or bad, the problem lies in comparison.

Compared to that old woman, Jiang Yuying is at least not willful or capricious. She may be a little silly, but she won't cause any trouble.

Just then, the soul communication device on Jade Shadow Douluo's left wrist suddenly beeped three times.

Yu Ying Douluo opened the package and his expression immediately turned strange. "Um... Senior Ice Emperor, Cai Yue'er and her group's special train will arrive at Tianhai City's Soul Guidance Train Station in half an hour. They're accompanied by the Twin Holy Dragons, and they say... they want to meet with you..."

"roll!"

Bing Muxue grabbed Yu Ying Douluo's wrist, strode to the door, opened it, and threw Yu Ying Douluo out the door like trash.

The enemy is hateful, but the traitor is even more hateful!

Let her negotiate with Cai Yue'er, that traitor from the Silver Moon family? Ha! Did a donkey kick her in the head?

Outside the door, Yu Ying Douluo watched the door gradually close, a helpless expression appearing on his face. He could only silently get up from the ground.

Being caught in the middle is a very unpleasant feeling.

Despite possessing a cultivation level of 97, Jiang Yuying is not a four-word battle armor master. In terms of status, she is not much higher than Cai Yue'er in the Sea God Pavilion.

Jiang Yuying is the head of the delegation to the Star Luo Continent, while Cai Yue'er is the deputy head. Both of them have the right to know about all the missions of the delegation.

Jiang Yuying found it hard to understand the Sea God Pavilion's pointless behavior. Tracking a hidden intelligence agency in Tianhai City inevitably involved dealing with the Sun Moon Empire's officials, and now they were sending a traitor from the Silver Moon family to follow them the whole time. Did they not trust her, Jiang Yuying?

Jiang Yuying had no choice but to ask her trusted confidants to look after Yue Zhengyin and the others, while she herself went to the Soul Guidance Train Station in Tianhai City.

Cai Yue'er is a troublemaker. If Jiang Yuying dares not to pick her up at the station, that old woman will definitely complain to Long Yeyue after they return to Shrek City, saying that she looks down on her identity as a traitor to the Silver Moon family.

Ugh! This is so annoying!

Inside the Tianhai City Soul Guide Train Station.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Silver Moon Douluo Cai Yue'er, Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuo Shi (known as the Twin Holy Dragons), and Blazing Dragon Douluo Feng Wuyu led a group of members from the Shrek Academy Blacksmith Association off the special train.

Zhuoshi hurriedly stepped forward and greeted Jiang Yuying, "Sister Ying, it's so late and you still came to pick me up. You must be very kind."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuying curled her lip and said sarcastically, "How could I dare not come to pick you up? If I dared not come, someone would impeach me on the grounds that I disrespected her, this traitor."

Ah this...

Hearing this, Zhuoshi awkwardly shook his arm, cursing himself a million times in his heart. He knew these two people didn't get along, so why was he meddling in their affairs? Did he think he was living too comfortably?

Cai Yue'er didn't care about Jiang Yuying's attitude. Her greatest pleasure in life was using her status and cultivation to bully the weak and causing trouble for her peers within the rules.

Her happiness is built on the suffering of others.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, go back to the hotel. I have something to ask you; I have the right to know about that matter."

Cai Yue'er raised an eyebrow and, under everyone's gaze, strode towards the station exit. (End of Chapter)
