Besides, the Spirit Pagoda was already so powerful . If they were bolstered by the Holy Spirit Cult, who could match against them in terms of combat strength? It would only be possible if the Douluo Federation's Battle God Hall worked together with the Tang Sect . They might not even be a match for them .
What was the Spirit Pagoda hoping to achieve by associating itself with the evil soul masters?
For a time, a plethora of thoughts and ideas were forming in Xue Yuntian's mind, all of which gave him a splitting headache . He felt like he was a rootless duckweed at risk of going under at any time .
"Your Majesty, you should make a decision soon!" his valet said softly . This valet had taken care of Xue Yuntian since he was a small child . His words meant a great deal to Xue Yuntian . He was also in charge of the royal family's internal affairs . He was extremely loyal to Xue Yuntian, and the emperor trusted him absolutely .
"What should I do?" Xue Yuntian closed his eyes painfully .
"Your Majesty, we must be decisive when a choice is needed at times like this . We have no other way out . If we don't pick a side, I'm afraid we'll…" The valet stopped when he reached this part of his reply . His expression was one of concern .
Naturally, Xue Yuntian understood what he had wanted to say . He took a deep breath and said with a deep voice, "Contact Li Yunzhe for me . I want to meet the Tang Sect's Sect Master . We'll meet in Spirit Wave City . Do it immediately!"
For him to be worthy of being selected out of the many princes and eventually enthroned as the emperor, Xue Yuntian was definitely not an indecisive person . At this moment, his heart had already made its choice . The Spirit Pagoda could no longer be depended upon . Regardless of the truth in the Tang Sect's statement, the Spirit Pagoda was currently leaderless and the war would be starting at any time . Under such circumstances, he could only protect his country by relying on the Tang Sect's strength . The Dou Spirit Empire would not end on his watch!
He had decided to discard all his pride and travel to Spirit Wave City to meet the Tang Sect's Sect Master . No matter what the Sect Master requested, he could only compromise and agree to them out of consideration for the greater good . The safety and future of his country came first .
In Spirit Wave City . . .
"Sect Master, the Dou Spirit Empire's royal family has just sent word that the emperor Xue Yuntian will personally come to Spirit Wave City to meet you," Li Yunzhe stood at Tang Wulin's right hand and conveyed the message reverently .
In truth, Li Yunzhe did not when support Tang Wulin's announcement that the Tang Sect would assume all responsibility for the destruction of the Spirit Pagoda's headquarters . If this had happened before the incident, he would have certainly voiced out his objections . This was because Tang Wulin's actions would undoubtedly place the Tang Sect at the heart of the storm .

However, after the incident that day where he saw how genuinely terrifying Tang Wulin could be, he had a newfound fear for this Sect Master of his . Although he had objected to the statement, he agreed to it when Tang Wulin insisted .
Naturally, Tang Wulin had made this move after giving it much thought and not merely on a whim . Claiming responsibility for the destruction of the Spirit Pagoda was firstly a way to intimidate the empire's royal family . He wanted them to understand that besides the Tang Sect, there were no other forces that could threaten them .
At the same time, Tang Wulin wanted news of this to travel back to the Federation . Although the Spirit Pagoda's standing in the Federation was as stable as Mount Tai, they would most certainly deny it or blame the Tang Sect . However, Tang Sect was operating entirely underground, so he was not too concerned for the time being . As long as some members of the public believed that the Spirit Pagoda was cooperating with the notorious evil soul master's sect, the Holy Spirit Cult, and suspected Spirit Pagoda, it would already be a huge blow to the Spirit Pagoda's name .
After all, there would still be many who would choose to believe in the Tang Sect . In addition to that, the destruction of the Tang Sect's headquarters and Shrek Academy would provide ample dots for the people to connect .
When they discovered the evil soul masters under the Spirit Pagoda the other day, Tang Wulin already understood that the Tang Sect and the Spirit Pagoda would stand on opposing sides . There was no question about that . If that was the case, then he would rather declare war on a grand and spectacular scale . The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy needed a clarion call . Although the timing was not exactly ideal, seeing that a war was coming and the Tang Sect was still in the dark, he decided to attack the Spirit Pagoda . He had to at least manipulate the public's opinion to give them a headache .
At the same time, this was also related to Tang Wulin breaking through to a Soul Douluo's rank . His strength could never be measured with simple soul master ranks . Similarly, an increase in his soul master rank meant that his cultivation base would improve greatly as well .
It was important that he possessed enough strength . This gave him the ability to face various situations . At the same time, with this announcement, he believed that the objectives of his current trip would be achieved with greater ease . The Dou Spirit Empire was actually easier to deal with . After all, they were a weaker country and did not have much choice . On the other hand, the Star Luo Empire was different . If the war really broke out, the Star Luo Empire was the real target of the Douluo Federation . Also, it would not be an easy task to persuade the Star Luo Empire to act according to their wishes .
"Tell the Dou Spirit Empire's royal family that we're already on our way to Heaven Dou City to meet His Majesty the Emperor," Tang Wulin said to Li Yunzhe .
Li Yunzhe was slightly stunned . Could it be that the Sect Master's announcement regarding the Spirit Pagoda's destruction was not meant to make the Dou Spirit Empire bow down?
However, he quickly understood his intentions . There was some give and pull . He was giving the royal family some face . His Sect Master was making some interesting plays!
If it was only for their current mission, then they would definitely have a greater advantage if they let Dou Spirit Empire's emperor come to Spirit Wave City to meet them . However, if they wanted to sustain a long-term relationship between Tang Sect and the Dou Spirit Empire, it was only natural to not put too much pressure on them .
Firstly, he announced that the Tang Sect would take responsibility for the Spirit Pagoda's destruction as a display of strength, and then, he announced he was willing to head toward the Dou Spirit Empire to meet the emperor . There was just the right amount of tension and relaxation, forcefulness and gentleness . This Sect Master truly had some extraordinary qualities .
Thus, they set out!
Two soul buses drove quietly onto the highway . Tang Wulin sat in front and closed his eyes to rest his spirits .
At the moment, he was playing with various ideas in his mind, working hard to tidy up his train of thought .
He had to put some things down for the time being . The most important task he had to do at this point was to stop this war from happening . After seriously focusing his mind on it, he noticed that the only thing he could do at the moment was believe that everything he saw was real . His adopted parents were rescued by his biological father, who was a great personage, a true deity .
This was because believing in these things would have the smallest impact on his spirits . The effect they would have on him would also be the lowest .
That was why he recalled every single sentence Tang San had said to him and kept them in his memories deep inside his heart .
He brought some order to his thoughts . There were a few important points Tang San had wanted to say to him . The first thing was that his biological mother did not abandon him . She parted with him so that he may live on and prevent the Golden Dragon King's seal from breaking . The second thing was that he should stabilize his spirits and protect his own body as much as he could . At the same time, he did not have to worry too much about the Golden Dragon King . With the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, he would not die easily .
Then came the passing down of his legacy and his reminders .
The more he recalled the incidents back then, the more Tang Wulin believed that everything he saw was real . This was because Tang San's words had explained why there were eighteen seals in his body that contained the Golden Dragon King's powers .
Tang Wulin had posed a question for the Holy Spirit Douluo once . He had asked her if he was related to his adopted parents by blood . The Holy Spirit Douluo answered him after much hesitation that their blood was indeed different . This meant that they were truly his adopted parents and not his biological parents . They did not say that just because they wanted to comfort him .
When he cleared his thoughts on these matters, Tang Wulin felt much happier . Although he himself could not believe that his father was a God King, he was still unable to believe Tang San's words back then .
Tang San had told him that all the hard work he had done and the strength he had obtained was so that his children would be proud of him . These words had touched Tang Wulin's heart . It was similar to Tang Ziran's words when he said that the only person one could completely trust and rely on in life was oneself .
