The Confidence of King Godzilla (Part 3) 25: Chapter 25: Chrysanthemum and Ghost, Holy Maiden Betrayal?
The Confidence of King Godzilla (Part 3) “Alright, then let’s go see the sea!
The Heaven Dou Empire’s largest seaport city is quite far from here, let’s set off today!” Tang Xiao clapped his hands in agreement, then gave Tang Hao a wink.
He responded, “Big Brother is right, let’s go see the sea!” Not long after the three of them finished their meal and left.
The Tenth Elder, who had been ordered by the Supreme Pontiff to hunt down the 100,000-year Soul Beast, followed the clues all the way to Vast Sea City.
However, in the city, he encountered someone who surprised him quite a bit.
“Holy Maiden?
And Elder Chrysanthemum, Elder Ghost?” The Tenth Elder looked at the three people in front of him and asked in surprise, “You were released?” “Yeah, otherwise did you want to stay for a while longer?” Chrysanthemum Douluo sighed with emotion.
His words caused Bibi Dong and Ghost Douluo to nod in agreement.
After the three left Sea God Island, the feeling of their spirit power skyrocketing disappeared instantly, and an inexplicable sense of emptiness and loss followed.
Although Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were unwilling, they had to accept reality.
The Tenth Elder looked at Chrysanthemum and Ghost and Bibi Dong, feeling stunned for a moment.
Had these three gone crazy?
What was there to miss about that godforsaken place?
Just as the Tenth Elder was puzzled, Chrysanthemum Douluo’s voice broke his train of thought: “Tenth Elder, why are you here?” The Tenth Elder’s gaze swept over the three of them, and he hesitated before speaking.
Chrysanthemum and Ghost were the Supreme Pontiff’s right-hand men, and Bibi Dong was the Supreme Pontiff’s Personal Disciple—although this matter was supposed to be kept secret from the High Priest, surely he could tell them, right?
After all, if Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo hadn’t been called away by the High Priest, this mission would likely have fallen to them.
Thinking of this, the Tenth Elder whispered: “I am under the Supreme Pontiff’s orders to track down a 100,000-year Soul Beast that has taken human form.
But you must not tell the High Priest; the Supreme Pontiff ordered me to keep it secret from the High Priest.” This matter shouldn’t have been mentioned.
But since Bibi Dong had already returned, the High Priest probably wouldn’t need to search for Spirit Bones anymore, right?
“A 100,000-year Soul Beast?!” Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Bibi Dong were immediately surprised and whispered, the three of them looking at each other with eyes full of shock.
“This is reserved for the Supreme Pontiff himself; he is already close to level 90 spirit power.” The Tenth Elder didn’t pay attention to their surprised expressions and, after thinking for a moment, continued, “The Supreme Pontiff wants to capture the Soul Beast personally, so he will likely meet the High Priest here.
When you see the High Priest, remember to help cover for me and just say the Supreme Pontiff is here to personally bring the Holy Maiden back.” “Easy, easy.
Tenth Elder, go do your work first, don’t lose the trail.” Chrysanthemum Douluo patted the Tenth Elder on the shoulder, signaling him to leave as soon as possible.
The Tenth Elder nodded and hurried away.
Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn’t help but feel tempted: “A 100,000-year Soul Beast, I remember it always yields a Spirit Bone every time it takes human form, right?” Bibi Dong frowned slightly.
She vaguely guessed Chrysanthemum Douluo’s plan, but as Qian Xunji’s student, it was not convenient for her to say too much.
“The last Spirit Bone, the High Priest has been searching for it for a full two years, and it has exhausted all of Spirit Hall’s resources and connections—” Chrysanthemum Douluo continued to himself, “If we could use this Spirit Bone to build a good relationship with the Sea God, wouldn’t we be able to stay for a while longer?
That way, we could continue to Cultivate in that place where spirit power surges.” Bibi Dong’s heart wavered slightly, but she remained silent, pursing her lips.
At this moment, Ghost Douluo said thoughtfully: “If we have to search for another Spirit Bone, it might take two or even three years.
At our current Cultivation speed, we would miss out on so many levels…” Bibi Dong couldn’t help but swallow, her heart rate accelerating, “But what about Teacher…
it won’t be easy to explain, right?
After Teacher kills the Soul Beast and obtains the Spirit Bone, if we reason with him and appeal to his emotions, Teacher surely won’t be stingy.” A flash of hesitation crossed Chrysanthemum Douluo’s eyes.
But he quickly thought of the live Spirit Beasts that Godzilla usually ate—taking a bite and absorbing the spirit ring directly, the efficiency was simply astonishing!
Plus those several “handmaidens” who were 100,000-year Soul Beasts in human form…
Chrysanthemum Douluo understood in his heart that whether it was for eating or as handmaidens—the Sea God loved them alive!
His eyes turned cold, and he whispered: “Don’t forget, the Sea God likes live Spirit Beasts!
The High Priest also said that the most important thing right now is to build a good relationship with Sea God Island.
I believe the Supreme Pontiff will understand.” Chrysanthemum Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, was not truly loyal to Spirit Hall.
Joining Spirit Hall was merely to obtain greater power, wealth, and status.
Otherwise, how could he have been so anxious to defect in the original story when faced with the death threat of Tang San’s ninth spirit ring, threatening to join the Heaven Dou Empire to fight against Spirit Hall?
Now, taking something already in Qian Xunji’s grasp to curry favor with the Sea God, he felt absolutely nothing wrong with it.
“I will immediately return to Sea God Island to notify the Sea God.
As for the High Priest—Old Ghost, you go notify him, and remember what the Tenth Elder said, do not tell the High Priest.” Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately made a decision and looked seriously at Bibi Dong: “Holy Maiden, when the Supreme Pontiff asks, just say you didn’t tell the High Priest, and the two of us will testify for you.” “I have no objections.” Gui Mei nodded, then looked at Bibi Dong along with Chrysanthemum Douluo.
Bibi Dong pursed her lips and lowered her head, staring at her toes, “Then…
alright, I will keep the secret.” The three of them split into two groups.
Since the Tenth Elder didn’t clearly state when the Supreme Pontiff would arrive, Chrysanthemum Douluo had to speed up, flying non-stop toward Sea God Island.
Fearing being stopped, when he entered the waters of Sea God Island, he shouted loudly: “I am Chrysanthemum Douluo, who plants flowers for the Sea God; I have an urgent matter to see the Sea God!” “Chrysanthemum Douluo?
Didn’t he leave?
Why is he back again?” Godzilla turned his head in confusion and let out a soft huff, which Sea Princess translated.
(To avoid padding the word count, in the following text, whenever Sea Princess and Godzilla appear together, it is assumed that Godzilla’s words are translated by Sea Princess.) “Sea God, I discovered a 100,000-year Soul Beast that has taken human form in Vast Sea City!” Chrysanthemum Douluo said excitedly: “The Supreme Pontiff wants to claim it for himself, but of course I don’t agree!” Godzilla looked at him curiously, “Why tell me?” “I admire the Sea God and am willing to serve by your side.” Chrysanthemum Douluo chuckled.
Godzilla couldn’t help but show a smug smile and tilted his head toward Bo Saixi, as if to say: Look, I told you they would come in handy.
Bo Saixi also smiled; she had never doubted Godzilla’s abilities.
Godzilla certainly knew of Chrysanthemum Douluo’s little schemes—it was just wanting to get close to him to absorb the trace amounts of Mortal World energy emitted by the Mortal World crystal clusters on his back to increase his spirit power.
Such double-dealing tactics would naturally be intolerable to ordinary people, but he was the strongest, so he didn’t fear him acting as such a three-surname servant.
“Break off a piece and give it to him.” Hearing Godzilla say this, Lan Fozi immediately examined the red crystal clusters, selected the smallest one, cut it off using her innate ability, and handed it to Chrysanthemum Douluo.
“This is your reward.
If used properly, it can advance the quality of your Spirit.” “Thank you for the Sea God’s grace!
Those involved also include Gui Mei and Bibi Dong…” Chrysanthemum Douluo was overjoyed and immediately knelt to thank him, taking the palm-sized red crystal with both hands and placing it in his chest pocket as if it were a precious treasure.
He did not use a spirit tool to store it, as if he would only be satisfied if he kept it close to his body and touched it from time to time.
“I will reward them both myself.
Lead the way.” Godzilla slowly stood up, and Xiao Bai and Bo Saixi left his back one after another, leaving only Lan Fozi and Sea Princess, the mother and daughter, on his back.
Led by Chrysanthemum Douluo, the group left Sea God Island and headed straight for Vast Sea City.
As the king at the apex of the ecosystem, an existence that had ascended to the throne of the King of Monsters—how could he not conquer some lackeys and keep some beautiful consorts?
Otherwise, wouldn’t this Godzilla have been for nothing?
It might not seem tempting right now but who knows what the future holds?
“And If you’re enjoying it, drop a Power Stone for me!”
