Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 108 Following Nana
To be honest, Jing Hongchen is quite familiar with evil soul masters. Shrek Academy may not know that the Holy Spirit Cult is in the Sun Moon Empire, after all, the distance is too far.

However, as a level nine Soul Master and the head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen did indeed know some people from the Holy Spirit Cult. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why he revealed the location of the Holy Maiden Ma Xiaotao to the Holy Spirit Cult in the original work.

Although Jing Hongchen had a generally negative view of evil soul masters, the current Sun Moon Emperor needed their power. According to the Sun Moon Emperor's plan, if the Sun Moon Empire were to launch a war against the Douluo Three Kingdoms in the future, the Holy Spirit Cult would become a great asset.

However, Jing Hongchen was still unwilling to let evil spirit masters control the students of the academy. After all, most of the students would become members of the Sun Moon Army in the future, which was completely different from the Holy Spirit Cult.

"Yuhao, are you sure there really is an evil spirit master controlling Nana?" Jing Hongchen suppressed his anger.

Any evil soul master in the Sun Moon Empire is definitely related to the Holy Spirit Cult. If what Huo Yuhao said is true, it means that the Holy Spirit Cult doesn't take the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy seriously at all.

"I'm certain that as long as we follow them, we'll find the evil spirit masters' hideout," Huo Yuhao said with absolute certainty. Following the answer key is the safest approach.

Jing Hongchen was about to ask Huo Yuhao how he determined that, but when he thought about how Huo Yuhao had gained some ability to glimpse fate after undergoing attribute guidance with the auspicious beast, he suppressed his desire to continue asking.

Jing Hongchen said, "Then let's follow them now and find out who is controlling this academy. I will make them pay the price."

It's worth noting that Nana was actually an outstanding student at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. In Jing Hongchen's opinion, she could definitely become a Soul Douluo in the future.

Such a student is definitely a talent. In the Sun Moon Empire, there are very few people who can become Title Douluo, so from the perspective of the entire empire, Soul Douluo is already quite good.

If such people are controlled by evil spirit masters, then the future of the Sun Moon Empire is worrying. Perhaps one day, a large number of people secretly controlled by evil spirit masters will appear in the Sun Moon Empire's army, which is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger.

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen's mood grew heavier and heavier. He felt that the Holy Spirit Sect had gone too far this time.

"Yes, Dean, that's what I think too," Huo Yuhao replied.

After saying that, the two began to follow Nana. With Nana's strength, it was naturally impossible for her to notice that two people were flying in the air and following her.

Nana walked in the direction she remembered, and after a while, she entered an inconspicuous building. Mingdu was a very large city, so there were actually many such inconspicuous buildings.

She reached out and knocked on the door five times, using a rhythm of three long knocks followed by two short knocks. This was a code, and if the code didn't work, the people inside wouldn't actually open the door for her.

Soon, someone opened the door for her and led her inside, and Nana followed them there.

A moment later, Nana entered a black domed building and stepped into a room. Before her were two people in white. To Nana, these two people held a lower status than her in the Holy Spirit Cult, but in order to verify her identity, she had to strictly abide by the rules set by the Holy Spirit Cult.

She handed over a completely black plaque with two round skulls on it, which looked somewhat intimidating. Then she began to exchange the secret code with the two men: "Long live the Holy Emperor."

The Holy Spirit Cult is a clandestine organization, so they are quite cautious when verifying the identities of their personnel.

A man in white glanced at the sign and said, "Long live the Holy Emperor."

Another man in white repeated the same words. Then, while handing over a wooden plaque, another man in white said with a smile, "Master Quasi-Spirit, we'll have to change our code from now on."

Nana took the sign, somewhat surprised: "You're changing it? Why are you suddenly changing the code?"

"Because just recently, our Holy Spirit Church welcomed back the Holy Maiden, which is a joyous occasion worthy of celebration. Just now, the Holy Spirit was praying for the Holy Maiden, saying that our Holy Spirit Church will surely prosper in the future!"

"Our code word from now on will be 'May the Holy Emperor live ten thousand years, and may the Holy Maiden's beauty remain forever.'" A man in white said with a smile.

"The Holy Maiden has been welcomed back?" Nana was stunned. She knew that the Holy Spirit Cult had the concept of Holy Son and Holy Maiden, but she had always thought that this was just a fabrication within the Holy Spirit Cult. She thought to herself that if the Holy Son was welcomed back in the future, the code would definitely become longer.

“I see. This is indeed a joyous occasion. God bless our Holy Spirit Church,” Nana said.

A man in white said, "Master Quasi-Spirit, please go in quickly. The Great Holy Spirit has been waiting for a long time. You are now a Soul King, and it is estimated that it will not be long before you are promoted to a Holy Spirit."

The term "quasi-spirit" refers to someone who is about to become the Holy Spirit.

Strictly speaking, Nana can only be considered a holy servant at this point.

The Holy Spirit Cult has a strict hierarchy. Holy Servants are peripheral members. Only when Nana reaches the Soul Emperor level can she become a Holy Spirit. A Holy Spirit is a formal disciple of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Of course, becoming a Soul Emperor was not a difficult thing for Nana. She was already a Soul King when she was seventeen years old. Although taking pills was an factor, it is actually a very normal phenomenon for Soul Masters to improve their strength by taking pills.

Soon, Nana entered the inner room, looked at the Holy Spirits, and respectfully said, "Holy Spirits!"

"Hmm." The Second Holy Spirit nodded, then said, "Sixth Holy Servant, go and cultivate."

Nana pleaded, “Great Holy Spirit, may I see my parents?”

Her parents' souls are still in the hands of the Holy Spirit Cult, which is the root cause of her joining the cult, because if she does not agree to their demands, they will torment her parents' souls.

“Meet your parents? Servant Number Six, have I been too lenient with you? I remember you just met your parents’ souls not long ago! One should not push one’s luck,” the Second Holy Spirit sneered.

Nana's expression changed slightly; she wanted to try again, "But, Second Holy Spirit..."

Before she could finish speaking, the Second Holy Spirit waved his hand, interrupting her. "Alright, that's enough. Go and cultivate diligently. If you behave well, I'll allow you to see your parents again in a month. Sixth Holy Servant, you don't want me to torment your parents' souls, do you?"

Nana's face paled, and she immediately apologized: "Second Holy Spirit, please don't torment my parents' souls. I will definitely cultivate diligently and strive to become a Holy Spirit disciple as soon as possible!"

"Hmm." The Second Holy Spirit nodded and waved his hand dismissively. "Go on, strive to become one of us as soon as possible, and then we will naturally release your parents' souls."
