What benefit would they receive if all living beings were reduced to ashes?

The Holy Spirit Cult was undoubtedly the greatest enemy he had to face. Although he was slightly suspicious of Spirit Pagoda, at least for now he did not have any actual proof connecting Spirit Pagoda with the great explosion.

The next thing on his agenda was to understand the Holy Spirit Cult.

The most terrifying part of it was not its collective strength, but its concealed and dark nature. The mysterious Holy Spirit Cult was the most terrifying one. When you do not understand your enemy, they could appear before you at any time and turn into your most terrifying adversary.

Take their recent experience as an example. If Blood Nine had not staked his own life by igniting his life flame and Blood God Army’s reactions were not fast enough, the ambush could have resulted in a great tragedy.

However, how should he go about understanding the Holy Spirit Cult? These evil soul masters were not only strong, but their determination was also unlike any ordinary person. According to what they currently knew, even if they managed to catch an evil soul master they would be capturing a dead body. They had a plethora of secret techniques to end their own lives.

Tang Wulin could not help but frown when he thought about this. There was still a lot that he needed to understand. Since his enemy was hidden, he could not afford to quickly expose himself as well. Unless…

Tang Wulin squinted his eyes slightly and a plan started developing in his mind.

They entered Mingdu City and proceeded to look for a place to settle down. Before they proceed to the inner parts of the continent Tang Wulin had to understand the general state of affairs in the capital, especially regarding the situation following the change in leadership of the federation.

However, when he prepared to find a place to stay he discovered another problem…

“Senior disciple brother, do you have some money?” Tang Wulin asked A Ruheng who sat at the back with a slightly awkward tone.

“Money? What for?” A Ruheng caressed his big bald head.

Tang Wulin shifted his gaze toward Sima Jinchi as the latter replied, “I still have a few tens of thousands.”

Tang Wulin’s lips twitched. It seemed that he had not much cash on him as well. He could not believe that they had overlooked such an important aspect. It would not be a problem if there were only three of them. Tens of thousands were enough for them to journey into the mainland. However, there was twenty-seven of them. Whether it was food for the men or transport they needed the money and they needed a lot of it!

Regardless of what they wanted to do, they had to solve their financial problem first. Even rebuilding Shrek Academy in the future would require large sums of money. A small bag of coins would not be enough.

Tang Wulin rubbed his temple. He always knew that he would have to face a lot of pressure and problems if he wanted to rebuild Shrek Academy. However, he never expected that the first problem he would have to face to be money.

They found a comparatively normal-looking hotel and checked-in. After they had their lunch, Tang Wulin noticed that they needed more money for their expenses as compared to what he had expected.

They were all cultivators in their prime. Their appetite…

He finally understood why his companions back then displayed the expressions they did when they saw him eating. They must earn money!

Earn money? How would he do that?

The first thing he thought about was forging. As a rank-7 Saint Craftsman, there was nothing else he could do to earn as quickly it. However, if he forged there was a possibility of him exposing his identity! After all for such a young Saint Craftsman, wait… young?

Tang Wulin’s eyes suddenly brightened. He had been cultivating in the Blood God Army recently. How could he have forgotten something he was skilled at?

Tang Wulin called Sima Jinchi, A Ruheng, Ma Shan, Jiang Wuyue, Long Yuxue, and Ling Wuyue into his room.

“I’m going out for a bit. The objective of our current trip is quite obvious. Try your best to stay indoors and wait for me in the hotel. When I’m not around…” Who should be in charge when he was not around?

Tang Wulin’s gaze scanned the faces of the people before him. He could not help but feel awkward. There was no doubt in that A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi were the most powerful ones among them, but these two were not skilled in leading. Moreover, they were not on good terms with each other. Allowing them to take charge was not a good idea. Not creating trouble would be difficult for them.

Ma Shan was a suitable candidate, but A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi were much stronger than him. Would they submit to him?

“Who’s in charge?” Ling Wuyue asked with a faint smile on her face. She saw the awkward situation Tang Wulin was in.

Tang Wulin nodded. “Our Blood Dragon Unit needs a co-captain. When I’m not here, the co-captain will assume command. That’s why I gathered all of you here. I wanted to ask who among you is willing to shoulder this responsibility.”

Ling Wuyue shrugged. “Not me.”

Jiang Wuyue glanced at Ma Shan. As Ma Shan’s subordinate, he immediately shook his head without hesitation.

A Ruheng turned to look at Sima Jinchi. There seemed to be sparks flying out of both their eyes. They appeared ready to fight it out at the slightest hint of disagreement.

Ma Shan looked awkward. These two were so wild and intractable that there was no way he could handle them without Tang Wulin. He did not have enough strength!

“I’ll do it.” A voice nobody had expected came at this very moment. It also attracted everyone’s attention.

Long Yuxue calmly looked at Tang Wulin. “When you’re not around, I’ll take charge. Let me be the co-captain.”

“You?” Jiang Wuyue looked at Long Yuxue with shock.

Long Yuxue glanced at him. “Do you have something to say?”

Jiang Wuyue hastily shook his head.

Ling Wuyue giggled. “Little sister Yuxue’s going to be the co-captain? That’s good, that’s good.”

A smile appeared on the edge of Ma Shan’s lips but he did not make a sound.

The two strong men who were having a contest with sparks in their eyes shivered at the same time. This was because the scene of the heavy-ion beam affecting the Bear Lord’s body was replayed in their minds. That weapon… It was truly terrifying!

“You guys don’t have any objections either?” Long Yuxue dryly asked.

Sima Jinchi was never skilled in leading so he nodded. A Ruheng shrugged. “I don’t mind.”

“Alright, it’s me then. Will this do?” The final three words were directed at Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin looked at his primary senior officer from the Blood God Army with shock. He never thought that the problem in his heart would be settled so easily by her. He could not help but look at her in a different light now.

Long Yuxue said to Tang Wulin, “If there’s no problem then you should go do what you have to. Do you need any one of us to go with you?”

Tang Wulin shook his head. “There’s no need for that first. I’m just going to find some information. I’ll be back soon. Make sure everyone stays inside the hotel. If it’s possible don’t gather everyone in the same place. Just wait for me.

“Alright.” Long Yuxue did not say much. One word was all she muttered.

Ling Wuyue said with a smile, “Captain, I think you have a great butler here.”

Tang Wulin looked at Long Yuxue who was also looking at him with keen sparkling eyes. Tang Wulin wanted to thank her, but he did not know why he could not say the words.

The others scattered, leaving only Long Yuxue behind.

“Do contact us anytime you need something. There’s one more thing I want to remind you about. We who are trained by the Blood God Army are all-rounders. We’re not only skilled in combat, but we’re highly-trained in other areas as well. If there’s something you need us to do, I suggest that you give orders for everyone to do it. You’d be wasting resources by having everyone gather here and do nothing,” Long Yuxue told Tang Wulin

Tang Wulin nodded. “You have a point. I was also thinking about that. Thank you, Yuxue.”

Long Yuxue shook her head. “I’m your subordinate right now. These are things that I should do, you don’t have to thank me. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

Tang Wulin felt a warmth spread in his heart as he looked at her receding back. He was genuinely thankful that there was someone who wanted to help him.

A disappointed look appeared on Long Yuxue’s beautiful face as she exited Tang Wulin’s room. In the end, her personality had dictated her course of action. Even if she knew that it was impossible, she would persist for what she had made up in her mind. If she had the best choice, she would never settle for second best. She might have inherited such stubbornness from her father. At least she was by his side for now. Maybe, someday…

Half an hour after when Tang Wulin silently left the hotel, he had taken on a whole new appearance.

He appeared to be in his forties, a middle-aged man who was not pleasing to the eye. His body appeared well-built, but his stature was shorter by half a head than his original height.

Such an appearance would almost go unnoticed in the crowd. This was the art of disguise he learned from the Demon Island. It must be known that the secret techniques and little tricks he learned on Demon Island could even be used to alter the colors of his soul rings, let alone his appearance.

After he exited the hotel, Tang Wulin did not go to the Blacksmith’s Association directly. Instead, he took a soul taxi and gave the driver an address.

The taxi drove on steadily. About half an hour later, he arrived at his destination. Tang Wulin alighted as he raised his head to look at this shop before him.
