Chapter 422 Demon Emperor
Chapter 422 Demon Emperor
In the far north, the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Church.
A man in a simple black robe hurriedly pushed open the door of a secret room and said:
"Master Ghost Emperor, the Holy Soul Sea Conference is about to be held. If the Corpse Emperor really becomes the leader, our situation will be bad!"
"Gu Qi, shut your mouth! Why are you so flustered?" a burly man sitting next to the Ghost Emperor shouted.
Gu Qi smiled awkwardly, seeming to realize his own gaffe, and quickly closed the door before walking in.
Including Gu Qi who just came in, there are a total of six people sitting in this room. Except for the Ghost Emperor who is an Extreme Douluo, the other five are all Super Douluos without exception.
"Lord Ghost Emperor, although Gu Qi is a little impulsive, his questions are not unreasonable!" said an evil soul master.
"Yeah, what should we do now?"
"Once we lose our power, the cultivation resources we enjoy will be gone!"
Facing the arguments of the people around him, the Ghost Emperor still leaned on the sofa in the main seat without saying a word.
Before, the person sitting in this position was his teacher, Long Jun, and these people were the core members of Long Jun's faction.
[Teacher, if it were you, what would you do? ]
Finally, after the noise around him gradually died down, the Ghost Emperor said, "Hold on and wait for that master to come back."
“But Lord Ghost Emperor, forgive me for being blunt, if the Holy Soul Sea chooses the next leader, it will be useless even if she has Lord Dragon King’s appointment!”
"If she doesn't show up again, there's no way we can delay this any longer."
The Holy Soul Sea Conference is the most noble meeting of the Holy Spirit Church. All evil soul masters whose cultivation has reached Super Douluo or above will be invited to participate to discuss and make decisions together.
The resolutions made by the Holy Soul Sea Council will never be easily changed.
Titled Douluo or some extremely talented disciples can obtain the right to watch the ceremony and take the opportunity to admire the heroic figures of their predecessors.
The Dragon King had always been like a stabilizing force that stabilized the hearts of these people, but now, this stabilizing force had collapsed.
After the death of the Dragon King, the Corpse Emperor Li Renwu wanted to directly take over as the leader of the Holy Spirit Church, but was rejected by the Ghost Emperor on the grounds that the Dragon King passed the position of leader to another person before his death.
In the end, Li Renwang only became the acting leader, but now Li Renwang wants to convene the Demon Saint Soul Sea Conference and directly serve as the leader of the Holy Spirit Church.
After hearing this news, everyone in the Dragon King faction suddenly felt insecure. Everyone knew that the Ghost Emperor would never be a match for Li Renwang.
Once they lose power, they will not only lose a lot of cultivation resources, but they will also suffer different kinds of retaliation.
Therefore, they can only hope that the person who was passed down the throne by the Dragon King as mentioned by the Ghost Emperor will show up soon and be strong enough to overwhelm Li Renwang.
The Ghost Emperor's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and he saw the panic and fear in their eyes, but he just said, "Trust that sir, all we need to do is buy time for her."
...
Holy Soul Sea Assembly.
It was said to be a grand event that all the high-level members of the Holy Spirit Church had to attend, but the meeting place could not be said to be particularly luxurious. After all, evil soul masters were not particularly particular people.
When the Ghost Emperor led his people into the venue, he saw the figure sitting in the main seat, wearing a purple dress. She was very beautiful, but had a pair of sword-like eyebrows, cold eyes, and a purple-gold light.
Even though she didn't make any moves, she just had a feeling that she was the center of the world.
Seeing her, the Ghost Emperor's pupils suddenly contracted, while others were still wondering why she was able to sit in the main seat.
But with the status and position of the Ghost Emperor, he could naturally recognize the identity of the woman in front of him at a glance, "Supreme Leader...Demon Emperor..."
For the first time, the Ghost Emperor felt that things were completely out of his control.
The Ghost Emperor's heart was instantly filled with a huge wave of questions: "Why did that old immortal come here? Hasn't she stopped caring about human affairs for thousands of years?"
Because the Demon Queen cannot always maintain a stable state, and because she actually looks down on these short-lived humans, she has almost never participated in the Holy Spirit Church's Holy Soul Sea Conference.
But this time was different. The Demon Emperor was extremely angry this time. The Dragon King consumed almost all of the Holy Spirit Church's soul reserves without informing her at all, and ended up suffering a great defeat.
The Demon Emperor was extremely dissatisfied with the loss of support from the Holy Spirit Church, so she came here in person.
The Ghost Emperor first gave his subordinates a look, asking them to be patient, and then walked straight to his position.
The venue was arranged roughly in the shape of three circles, with the three Ultimate Douluo, Li Renwang, Xue Di Ye Lingshang, and Gui Di, and the sudden visit of the Demon Emperor, at the center of the circles.
The innermost circle is the Super Douluo who hold key positions in the Holy Spirit Church. All the people brought by the Ghost Emperor are in this circle.
The middle layer is composed of some super Douluo who do not have any special positions. These people either joined later and cannot be trusted, or have various mental problems and are unable to hold key positions.
The outermost layer is composed of some evil soul masters who came to watch the ceremony.
After waiting for a while, seeing that most people had arrived, Li Renwu stood up and said, "Since everyone is here, the Holy Soul Sea Conference will officially begin."
"I'm sure you all know the reason for holding the Holy Soul Sea Conference this time, which is to elect a new leader of the Holy Spirit Church."
As soon as Li Renwu finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out, "I support Lord Corpse Emperor to become the leader!"
It was like the firing of a starting gun, and the cheers that followed were endless, all cheers in support of Li Renwang.
"Long live the Corpse Emperor!"
"You are the real leader!"
The Ghost Emperor's expression became uglier and uglier. He suddenly coughed, and his voice, which carried soul power, instantly suppressed the noise of booing. He said:
"My opinion is the same as before. Before his death, Lord Long designated another evil soul master as the leader of the Holy Spirit Church."
"Even if the position of the Holy Spirit Church leader cannot be designated, we should at least wait for her to come before we make a choice."
"Enough!" A cold shout suddenly rang out, and everyone felt a flash of light appear in the sea of their consciousness, making them unable to help but cover their foreheads.
The Demon Emperor's cold voice sounded, "Ghost Emperor, before this, why don't you explain to me why your teacher, Long Jun, mobilized so many resources of the Holy Spirit Church without informing me, and ultimately failed?"
The Ghost Emperor first looked at the Demon Emperor, then at the Corpse Emperor Li Renwu who was calm and composed beside her. An unprecedented huge pressure suddenly rose in his heart.
