Chapter 588 This is a high-stakes gamble

At this moment, Qiangu Jingyin, who had returned from the Sun-Moon Empire, took the initiative to step forward and plead with Mu Xing: "Pavilion Master, I earnestly request that the task of wiping out the remnants of this rebel army be entrusted to the Qiangu family." He bowed slightly, his tone calm but revealing a hint of deep meaning, "But please allow me to postpone the dispatch of troops. When they are out of ammunition and food, and wield the sword against the weak to survive, my Qiangu family will unleash all our might to annihilate them in one fell swoop."

Mu Xing raised an eyebrow and looked at him, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "Why bother? If you're worried that they still have the strength to resist, I can just have Di Tian take action. Not to mention that there are less than a thousand soul masters among these remnants, even if a hundred thousand soul masters were assembled, they would be dead against him."

Qiangu Jingyin slowly raised his head, a dark current surging in his eyes. "The Beast God can indeed annihilate the enemy in an instant, but I do not seek to annihilate them. Hunger will eat away at humanity, and despair will breed madness. When they betray each other and plunder their compatriots, they will no longer be an army, but a group of mindless beasts called 'evil'. If we take action then, the world will see clearly that they are not heroes who have brought about the fall of a nation, but bandits who have brought about their own destruction."

What Qiangu Jingyin is waiting for is not just the collapse of the army, but the moment when human nature completely collapses.

A hint of interest flashed in Mu Xing's eyes, and he gestured for him to continue.

Qiangu Jingyin gave a few instructions to the communication soul guide, and as the conference room door opened, a young woman slowly walked in. She had gorgeous blonde hair and deep blue eyes. Her face was exquisite, but covered with a coldness and wariness that didn't match her age.

However, when the girl saw Mu Xing curled up on the sofa and Di Tian beside her, her eyes froze instantly.

The girl's gaze uncontrollably fell on Mu Xing's vaguely inhuman features, and Di Tian's more obvious dragon horns and tail, which exuded pure and powerful dragon power. Her icy expression instantly cracked, and her blue eyes widened with extreme shock. The sacred angel martial spirit in her body even produced an instinctive throbbing of extreme darkness, but she quickly suppressed it.

It's just that she is still too young and has not yet learned to perfectly hide the turmoil in her heart.

Before she could react, an invisible pressure instantly emanated from Qiangu Jingyin's body, landing precisely on the girl. The girl's body trembled imperceptibly, instantly realizing her loss of composure. She quickly lowered her head, forcibly suppressing the shock and surging doubts in her eyes. She quickly walked to Qiangu Jingyin's side, bowed her head, and stood respectfully. Her slightly pale face and clenched fists betrayed her inner turmoil.

Qiangu Jingyin calmly introduced her to Mu Xing as if nothing had happened, "Pavilion Master, this child's name is Ye Guyi. She's a special talent I found from the Ordinary Alliance during my previous operations in the Sun-Moon Empire. She possesses a top-tier sacred angel spirit, making her a natural nemesis of evil spirit masters and corrupted creatures. Her spirit has a special property: after destroying evil and purifying filth, it can gain pure feedback power, which not only quickly restores spirit power but can even enhance cultivation."

Before Ye Guyi, he omitted his true purpose of "nurturing bandits to enhance his own importance," instead articulating his plan in a way more in line with the interests of the Dragon Pavilion and Ye Guyi's understanding. His words sounded grand and righteous, as if everything was for the efficient completion of the mission. But apart from Ye Guyi, the dragons and humans present instantly understood his unspoken intention—sacrifice. Sacrifice those nearly one hundred thousand humans struggling in despair and on the verge of falling, using their "evil" as the richest nourishment to pave a blood-stained stairway to godhood for this holy angel.

Even the Mirror of the Ancients is ruthlessly scheming against its own kind, so why should Mu Xing, as a dragon, care about the lives of humans? If the Mirror of the Ancients wants to create a god, then let him. If he succeeds, the Dragon Pavilion might gain a powerful ally or tool; if he fails, it's merely internal loss for humanity. The Angel God was once a first-level deity in the divine realm; if he could truly reappear, it might actually be a good thing.

Mu Xing's gaze swept across Ye Guyi and saw the light in the girl's eyes that was burning with the "just mission".

"Angel... your former boss of the Spirit Hall's descendants." Mu Xing's tone was calm, but he did not reveal his true purpose. "Since that's the case, I will follow your plan."

"I will follow the Pavilion Master's orders." Qiangu Jingyin bowed deeply, and Ye Guyi followed suit awkwardly. She only understood the superficial task, and her eyes seemed particularly firm because she was about to practice the belief of "purifying evil."

After receiving Mu Xing's approval, Qiangu Jingyin led Ye Guyi slowly out of the hall. Only after they were free from the suffocating pressure did Ye Guyi dare to take a deep breath. Her blue eyes still held a lingering sense of shock and confusion at Mu Xing and Di Tian's appearance, but more so a sense of mission to dedicate herself to a "just cause." Therefore, she didn't notice the cold, calculating intent that flashed across the eyes of the unfathomable figure before her.

At least until the Angel God reappeared, Ye Guyi would never know that, from the moment she was found in the Sun-Moon Empire, she had been the "divine seed" meticulously nurtured by Qiangu Jingyin. He captured evil spirit masters and made her his executioner, witnessing her rapid growth in the process of purging evil. Especially after executing Ye Xishui, the ultimate Douluo-level evil spirit master leader, her soul power soared from Soul Emperor to Quasi-Soul Sage. Even after obtaining her seventh spirit ring, her soul power continued to grow. That "harvest" was already so bountiful, so... what would the immense "nutrients" be from sacrificing nearly 100,000 remnants of the army, inevitably sliding into darkness and madness in despair? Enough to propel her to unprecedented heights!
As for whether Ye Guyi, if he truly achieved deification and learned the truth, would backfire on the Qiangu Family... Qiangu Jingyin probably didn't care. He knew exactly what he was doing. It was a gamble, and for the future of the Qiangu Family, to control a power capable of changing the landscape, he was willing to take any risk. He might even be anticipating such a backlash; that might be the most brilliant part of his plan.

The conference room fell into a brief silence. Long Xiaoyao looked at the closed metal door, as if he could still see Qiangu Jingyin's back, who seemed respectful but was actually paranoid and crazy, and the blonde girl who was kept in the dark, with pure eyes but destined to be involved in the bloody storm.

This is really crazy. Long Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel a complicated chill in his heart.

Perhaps Qiangu Jingyin's madness had already been traceable. Long Xiaoyao still remembered how that young colleague calmly wrote a suicide note and arranged the family affairs in an orderly manner in order to plan the almost suicidal attack on Poseidon Island a few years ago, as if it was not a death but just an ordinary journey. At that time, Long Xiaoyao felt that this person had a desperate gambling nature in his bones.

Hey guys, please help! Some bastard changed the title of my previous book and copied it word for word to Tomato Books, renaming it "Douluo: Starting as the God of Asura, Twin Martial Souls". Please, please help me report this. Thank you!
