—------------------—

As the world changes, a day passes.

Zhongli Wu led his men across the border of the Tianhun Empire under the cover of night, sneaked into the territory of the Douling Empire, and entered a stronghold that had been prepared long ago.

Their Holy Spirit Church has deep roots and strongholds in the four empires. They have long made a plan for what to do in the event of a significant decline in strength - to move to the Douling Empire, the weakest of the four empires.

Although the evil soul masters are powerful, they cannot withstand the attacks of the orthodox soul masters in the world; Zhongli Wu knows very well that there are many hidden talents in the Douluo Continent. In addition to the forces in the open, there are also many hidden sects with profound foundations. The strength of the Holy Spirit Church is only enough to barely protect itself, and it must seek shelter in an empire to maintain long-term stability.

For example, it is not surprising that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, where Mu En came from, hides a level 98 immortal. There are also powerful forces such as the Haotian Sect, the Xuanming Sect, and the Body Sect. Even if the Holy Spirit Church has two Extreme Douluos, it cannot do whatever it wants.

The battle of Xingluo City caused great damage to the Holy Spirit Sect, and the two Ultimate Douluo had to retreat to recuperate. The injuries of the survivors, from Zhongli Wu onwards, had not healed, and they were unable to compete with the Sun and Moon Soul Guide faction in a short period of time, so they had to give up their hometown.

If you can't beat Kong Deming, Ye Yulin, and Jing Hongchen, can't you beat the fun-loving people in the Douling Empire? The old Emperor Sun and Moon was unwilling to give them the position of state religion, and it was the same when they became the state religion in the Douling Empire!

With the thought that he could regroup after a few years of development and the joy of getting the combat power of the three future super Douluo, Zhongli Wu walked straight to the place where Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui were in seclusion, and said respectfully: "Mother, Uncle Long, Xiao Wu has welcomed back the Taotie senior, the supreme worshiper of our sect, in Tiandou City, and brought back a future saint girl and a level 94 titled Douluo. I came here to report the good news to you two."

In the retreat area, a cold female voice full of surprise was soon heard.

"The Supreme Worshiper Taotie? Are you talking about Shrek's Xuanzi?"

"Yes, when I was leading the team to rest in Tiandou City, I suddenly sensed the presence of our sect's people. I took everyone to see and found the traces of the Blue Silver Saint, Shrek's beast king Gong Changlong, and Elder Xuan."

After saying that, Zhongli Wu winked at Zhang Peng and Wu Ya who were carrying Xuan Zi on a stretcher behind him. The two men gently put Xuan Zi down and turned into black light and retreated.

Zhongli Wu continued to introduce, "Master Xuan is the most meritorious minister of our sect. Upon hearing that our sect was in trouble, he took the trouble to bring two future Super Douluo to join our sect. This matter is of great importance, so I have no choice but to report it to the two elders. Please heal his wounds and restore his cultivation."

"We already knew when we came here that the Blue Silver Saintess is the girlfriend of Mu En's great-grandson. Master Xuan even sent such a genius to my school. It shows that he has been undercover for more than 200 years and has worked very hard. His loyalty is evident to all the world..."

As he spoke, Zhongli Wu couldn't help but sigh that his damn father had a good way of judging people. He immediately took a liking to Old Xuan, a loyal and unparalleled genius, and infiltrated him into Shrek.

On the way, he reviewed all of Old Xuan's deeds. Old Xuan's wisdom was truly as profound as the ocean. He went undercover as Shrek's number two figure and became the powerful deputy head of the Supervisory Group. He easily killed a large number of geniuses, and Shrek couldn't do anything to him.

From Yan Shaozhe's generation to the current inner courtyard of Shrek, there has not been a single worthy Titled Douluo for decades. This shows how great the contribution of Old Xuan was. He has killed dozens of future Titled Douluos!

After seeing that Xuanming Sect was extremely powerful, Elder Xuan acted decisively and attacked the core figures of Xuanming Sect one after another, leading to a life-and-death fight between Xuanming Sect and Shrek.

If Xu Xiaoyun's strength had not been underestimated, Xuanming Sect and Shrek would have both suffered losses, and the Holy Spirit Church would have easily lost two huge threats without arousing any suspicion.

It's a pity that the old man had to get involved in the game with his own body. All his cultivation was destroyed by Xu Xiaoyun, and even the origin of the martial soul of the Taotie Divine Bull was almost dissipated.

The Taotie Divine Bull is born with the talent to devour vast amounts of food. With a little guidance, it can become the most powerful evil martial spirit in the world, capable of swallowing up the heavens and the earth. Zhongli Wu asks himself whether even his Death Demon Puppet can compare to it.

If Elder Xuan had not gone undercover but had stayed in the Holy Church, he might have already achieved the limit of his generation. Such great courage and contribution must be recognized by the Holy Spirit Church!

"...Xiao Wu personally believes that when the Holy Church is in danger, we must unite as one and give Elder Xuan enough status and respect. We must not let the masters in the Church feel disheartened. This will greatly boost the morale of our Church."

After Zhongli Wu finished speaking, the retreat was silent for a long time, and Long Xiaoyao's deep sigh was heard.

"...You are right. I have not made any great contribution over the years. I am far inferior to Xuan Zi. From now on, he is the first supreme worshiper of our sect. Everyone who sees him will see him as if he were me."

"He is the second most important person in Shrek, and his status in our sect cannot be lower."

Ye Xishui's voice sounded immediately: "Leave Xuanzi's injury to me and your uncle Long. You go down first and send people to capture some precious soul beasts with Taotie blood and devouring talents, as well as earth-attributed soul beasts. The more the better. I will personally heal his wounds..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of black soul light passed through the retreat area, wrapped up Xuanzi's body, and disappeared.

Zhongli Wu said "yes" with a look of joy on his face, and left happily.

"Hehehe, fellow Shrek people, when you know the truth, I wonder how desperate you will be. This leader is looking forward to it…"

In the retreat place, the pale-faced Long Xiaoyao stood up, looked at Xuanzi, who was lying on the ground and breathing evenly, with a complicated expression, and sighed deeply.

"Xuan Zi, you are a ruthless person. You hide deeper than anyone else!"

Zhongli Wu just told all his guesses. Even though Long Xiaoyao felt that Mu En would not be unable to see Xuanzi's true face for more than two hundred years, he had to admit that Xuanzi, this old guy who was half a generation younger than them, was an absolutely ruthless man.

Xu Xiaoyun's disciple was killed by him, and his great-grandson almost lost his life; Mu En was even worse, his life was also killed by him, and his great-grandson's wife was sent to the Holy Spirit Church;

Shrek and Xuanming Sect, the two former top transcendent forces in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, are now at loggerheads with each other, fighting to the death and causing severe internal friction.

And all of this was manipulated by Xuan Zi, a guy hiding behind the scenes! Long Xiaoyao was conceited about his good eyesight, but he couldn't see the truth under the water.

A level 98 Super Douluo played two Extreme Douluos at his fingertips. Both he and Ye Xishui felt ashamed of themselves.

Long Xiaoyao was very curious about what kind of promise the former leader of the Holy Spirit Church, Zhongli Old Ghost, had made to make Xuanzi persevere in being an undercover agent for more than two hundred years, and return to the arms of the Holy Spirit Church with gifts before his death, dedicating his entire life to the Holy Spirit Church.

Ye Xishui stepped forward and said coldly, "Long Xiaoyao, you know you haven't done your best for the Holy Church over the years. Xuanzi's cultivation is only level 98, but his contribution to the Holy Church is more than ten times yours!"

Long Xiaoyao smiled bitterly, "So I'm giving up my position, right? If you have the ability to restore his cultivation, he can command the people in the Worship Hall to work for him."

"But the old turtle has quite a lot of skills. If you had rescued him earlier, you might have been able to save his cultivation. But now it may not be easy."

Ye Xishui reached out his hand, closed his eyes and sensed the state of Xuanzi's body for a while, frowned and said: "The soul core was broken, there is not much cultivation left, the martial soul was forcibly wiped out, and only some blood power is left. It's really not easy."

"But that's okay. His body is in a relatively pure state now. I can easily transform his blood into evil and activate the Taotie blood."

"Then, with our sect's secret method and a large amount of resources, we can repair his physical foundation. It will be just around the corner for him to return to being a Titled Douluo, and even a Super Douluo won't be a problem!"

Long Xiaoyao whispered, "I see his Dantian was destroyed by the old turtle, and the position of his soul core has been broken. If he wants to condense the soul core again, he can only do it between his eyebrows and chest. Isn't it very hard?"

Ye Xishui said coldly: "The Taotie Divine Bull has Taotie blood, and devouring energy is its instinct. How do you know that he can't succeed? Are you jealous of his talent?"

Long Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "See where you are going Xishui, I don't mean that..."

"That's fine as long as you don't mean it that way."

Ye Xishui interrupted Long Xiaoyao's words, and a purple-black soul light surged out of his fair palm that was not in line with his age, covering Xuanzi's body. The Taotie bloodline remaining in Xuanzi's blood and bones was quickly drawn out, turning into a ball of faint khaki light, wrapping around Xuanzi's body.

Ye Xishui clenched his five fingers, and the khaki light quickly shrank and converged, condensing into the shadow of a gluttonous bull about an inch in size, which was illusory and faint and rose into the air.

The next moment, Ye Xishui bit his fingertips, and a few drops of dark blood dripped out, falling towards the light and shadow of the Taotie divine bull. The blood turned into something when it touched it, and merged into one with it.

Under the two people's nervous gaze, the khaki-colored Taotie divine bull quickly turned into dark black, and the Taotie blood seemed to be aroused. The horns gradually turned into goat horns, and the majestic face turned in an evil and violent direction, and soon became unrecognizable.

The new Taotie bull has lost many of its bull features. Its expression is greedy and manic, and its spiral horns are like two dark whirlpools, emitting a terrifying aura that captivates and stuns the soul.

"good!"

Ye Xishui pressed down with his palm, and the evil spirit light and shadow fell into Xuanzi's dantian. The unconscious Xuanzi groaned, and his body suddenly trembled, and his bones creaked.

"Gah!"

Amidst the trembling, Xuan Zi's weak aura began to rise rapidly, soon breaking through the boundaries of Soul Master, surpassing Soul Sect, Soul King, Soul Emperor... and only began to slow down until the Soul Saint level.

This is not because the power Ye Xishui brought him can only reach the Soul Saint level, but because his body still needs a process of adaptation.

As his strength recovered, Xuan Zi's old face with wrinkles all over it began to show signs of rejuvenation. At the same time, clusters of black air rushed out from between his eyebrows, covering his facial features.

This aura was not strong, but the potential it contained made Long Xiaoyao secretly think it was extraordinary, and he even felt a hint of looming pressure from a superior.

He knew that this was Xuan Zi's Taotie bloodline manifesting. Not to mention Long Xiaoyao, even the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian would be suppressed by his bloodline.

"Xuan Zi has a full set of six soul bones. His martial soul is now stronger than mine. If he returns to level 89, he will be able to rival a Super Douluo. Should I send a message to the old turtle and ask him to kill this old thing? It's not easy..."

Long Xiaoyao was in a dilemma. He didn't want to see the Holy Spirit Church become too powerful, but he was worried about Ye Xishui. But if Xu Xiaoyun came, he might kill Ye Xishui after killing Xuanzi.

They were injured by the self-explosion of the temple master before his death. It would take three to five years for them to recover. It was really difficult to deal with.

At this moment, Ye Xishui's voice rang in Long Xiaoyao's ears: "Long Xiaoyao, your black dragon blood essence can also help his bloodline, why don't you drop a few drops?"

Upon hearing this, Long Xiaoyao stared at Xuanzi, whose martial soul had completely turned evil. His eyes flashed slightly, and he forced out two drops of blood, which fell into Xuanzi's dantian.

"Okay, I'll do something to you, and we'll see how it goes one step at a time..."

…

When Long Xiaoyao was in trouble, there were people in the Sun and Moon Empire who were in the same trouble as him.

In the Prince's Mansion, Xu Tianran was bent over his desk, staring at Xu Guozhong who came to visit him late at night, his eyes dark and uncertain.

"Uncle, you made such a big mistake, and the Hongchen Hall Master has seized the evidence. It's too difficult for me to come forward to save you, isn't it?"

"My dear nephew, listen to my uncle. As long as you save him this time, he will be yours from now on. He will give you whatever you want!"

Xu Guozhong gritted his teeth and knelt down to pay homage: "Your Majesty, I bow to you. Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long, long live the emperor!"

Xu Tianran raised his chin slightly, a satisfied smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"Then I will have to think about this carefully..."
