A strong sense of unease welled up in Yu Xiaogang's heart.
Just then.
The previously dark sky suddenly brightened.
The golden light curtain that stretched across the sky changed once again.
A thunderous roar echoed through the clouds, causing the entire Jialing Pass to tremble slightly.
All eyes were drawn to it at that moment.
Both the Martial Soul Empire's defenders on the city walls and the Heaven Dou Empire's army below the city walls stopped what they were doing.
Lines of enormous golden text, like divine pronouncements, slowly emerged.
[Sixth on the Power Ranking: Miaoyin Pavilion!]
Upon seeing these three words, Yu Xiaogang was stunned.
Tang Hao was stunned.
Ning Fengzhi was also stunned.
"Miaoyin Pavilion?"
Yu Xiaogang frowned, frantically searching his memory for any recollection of that name.
He is a theoretical master in the world of Soul Masters, who boasts of being well-read and knowledgeable about all the major forces on the continent.
No matter how hard he tried to recall, he couldn't find any information about "Miaoyinfang".
"What kind of force is this? I've never heard of it before."
Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself, his eyes filled with growing doubt.
Not only him, but Ning Fengzhi beside him also looked bewildered.
As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, his intelligence network spanned the entire world, yet at this moment, he also felt a deep sense of defeat.
The unknown is the most terrifying.
However.
The following words, however, struck the three men like a heavy hammer blow.
[Mystic Sound Pavilion: The most mysterious and powerful intelligence organization on the continent!]
[Our eyes and ears are spread throughout the continent, reaching from the imperial court to the common people!]
[A tightly organized group, infiltrating various powerful factions, leaving no stone unturned!]
Every faction has been infiltrated by it, without exception!
No information can be kept from the Mystic Sound Pavilion; they are the continent's unseen spies, knowing all the world's secrets!
Each word was like a thunderclap, exploding in the ears of the three.
Yu Xiaogang swayed violently and almost lost his balance.
His face instantly turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.
"All factions have been infiltrated?"
"Without exception?"
"There's no way to keep this from them?"
Yu Xiaogang's voice trembled, and his once intelligent eyes were now filled with terror.
what does that mean?
This means that all his plans and schemes over the years were nothing but child's play in the eyes of Miaoyinfang.
What terrified him even more was...
His private affairs.
His past with Bibi Dong, those hidden loves and hates.
And there was also the arrangement for this private meeting.
"Doesn't that mean they've also discovered my affair with Bibi Dong?"
Yu Xiaogang felt a chill run down his spine, a cold sensation shooting straight to the top of his head.
He always thought he had hidden it well.
He always believed that his relationship with Bibi Dong was a secret known only to heaven, earth, you, and me.
But now it seems that all of this is under the watchful eyes of others.
If these things are exposed...
If the world knew that this dignified master was still entangled with the Empress of the Spirit Empire...
Yu Xiaogang dared not think any further.
The fear of being utterly disgraced almost suffocated him.
Tang Hao, standing to the side, was also in disbelief, his hair and beard bristling.
"Then wouldn't my Haotian Sect have also been infiltrated?"
"How is this possible?!"
Tang Hao roared, his voice filled with anger and doubt.
"Our Haotian Sect has been in seclusion for many years, sealing off the mountains and locking the gates, so that not even a fly can get in!"
"The disciples of the sect are united as one, with absolutely no disloyalty!"
"How could such a secluded place be infiltrated?"
Tang Hao could not accept this fact.
The seclusion of the Haotian Sect was his last source of pride and also the sect's greatest shield.
But now, this barrier is completely ineffective in front of Miaoyinfang.
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart.
He gripped the scepter so tightly it creaked, his knuckles turning white from the force.
"The Wonderful Sound Pavilion? How terrifying!"
Ning Fengzhi stared intently at the sky, his eyes terrifyingly deep.
As a master of political maneuvering, he understood the importance of intelligence better than anyone else.
An intelligence organization capable of infiltrating all forces poses a threat far exceeding that of a peerless Douluo.
This means that you have no secrets from them.
Your weaknesses, your plans, your trump cards—all of these are known to the enemy.
"This force is too powerful."
Ning Fengzhi said in a deep voice, his tone filled with unprecedented apprehension.
"If they want to target someone, that person probably won't even know how they died."
Yu Xiaogang also came to his senses at this moment. He seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Such a powerful force is only ranked sixth?"
His voice was sharp, with a slight crack.
"Controlling intelligence across the entire continent and possessing three deities, such a foundation only ranks sixth?"
"That number one on the power rankings..."
Yu Xiaogang dared not think about it anymore.
The strength of the number one player is probably beyond the scope of human comprehension.
While the three were still immersed in shock and unable to extricate themselves.
The text on the screen scrolled again, dropping an even bigger bombshell.
The organization is controlled by three people, but in reality, there is a mastermind behind it all, manipulating everything!
Upon seeing this line of text, Yu Xiaogang completely lost his composure.
His eyes widened, his lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a single complete sentence.
"What?"
"Such a powerful organization as Miaoyin Pavilion actually has a mastermind behind it all?!"
Yu Xiaogang was so shocked that he was incoherent, his voice trembling like a leaf in the wind.
Li Bai is a first-class god.
Gongsun Li and Jing are level two gods.
This already places them at the pinnacle of power on the continent.
It could make three gods willingly submit and obey its commands.
Who exactly is the mastermind behind this?
"Who exactly is pulling the strings behind all this?"
"Could it be that Qianyu?!"
Yu Xiaogang stared at the sky, his eyes filled with confusion and fear.
"Is the mainland about to undergo a dramatic change?!"
Tang Hao and Ning Fengzhi were also dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.
They felt an unprecedented pressure.
It's a feeling of insignificance when facing an unknown, irresistible force.
...
Wuhun City.
Offering Hall.
This is the highest holy site of the Spirit Hall, and also the place where angelic light shines.
Beneath the enormous angel statue, an old man stood with his hands behind his back.
He had long, flowing blond hair, a dignified face, and an aura of sacred inviolability emanating from him.
It was Qian Daoliu, the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall.
now.
Even the peerless Douluo standing at the pinnacle of the Soul Master world looked up, his face filled with astonishment.
"Power Ranking, sixth place is the Wonderful Sound Pavilion?"
"It is ubiquitous, infiltrating all major forces..."
Qian Daoliu frowned deeply as he looked at the comments on the screen.
"There is such a powerful intelligence organization on the mainland."
"I have been in charge of the Spirit Hall for many years, and I have never noticed it."
