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

Chapter 210 Aftermath
Xu Jiawei forced a smile: "Elder Zhao, do you think there is still a chance for us, Xingluo, to continue cooperating with the Body Sect?"

Although there was an error in the intelligence this time, it wasn't my intention. Someone must have sabotaged things to cause this result.

Regardless, the Body Sect is an extremely powerful force that needs to be won over. Xu Jiawei, in all honesty, wants the Body Sect and the Star Luo Empire to continue their cooperation.

Elder Zhao shook his head: "Xu Jiawei, the sect leader's distrust of your Star Luo intelligence has reached its extreme."

I suggest you investigate the Empire's internal intelligence agencies as soon as possible to see what exactly went wrong.

After saying that, Elder Zhao quickly left.

Xu Jiawei watched Elder Zhao's departing figure with some helplessness until Elder Zhao left the palace.

Xu Jiujiu, who was standing nearby, came over and asked, "Brother, why was our intelligence wrong? Elder Zhao's face looked very bad; it didn't seem like he was deliberately deceiving us."

Xu Jiawei sighed: "Jiujiu, as you know, I have a connection with a level nine soul master from the Sun Moon Sect. Whether it's the Conferred God Platform, the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, or some of the Sun Moon Sect's soul tool technology, they were all provided by that level nine soul master."

Therefore, I naturally trust that level nine soul master very much. If he is willing to openly betray the Sun Moon Empire, I can even give him the position of national advisor.

The basis for our plan to attack Mingde Hall largely came from that level nine soul master.

Without the intelligence he provided, and the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, this plan would clearly not have been able to proceed.

Xu Jiujiu frowned slightly: "Brother, in my opinion, we should try our best to cultivate our own people so as to get rid of our dependence on this level nine soul master. After all, no matter what, he is a person of the Sun Moon Empire. The reason he provides us with help must be for some purpose."

This time, a mere intelligence blunder ruined our cooperation with the Body Sect. What if they provide false information again next time? Wouldn't our Star Luo Sect suffer losses once more?

“Jiu Jiu, what you said makes sense. I remember that this level nine soul master is already very old, and the lifespan of a human soul master is limited. I estimate that it won’t be long before this level nine soul master dies of old age.” Xu Jiawei also fell into thought.

"We can only spend more resources to have our Star Luo spies win over suitable high-ranking members of the Sun Moon Empire. After all, the high-ranking members of any empire can never be a monolithic group."

Sun and Moon Palace.

Xu Tianran sat in his wheelchair, looking out the window at the scenery, and said, "The Body Sect actually chose to launch a surprise attack on Mingde Hall."

It's normal that they know Jing Hongchen purchased a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, after all, so many people in the Starlight Auction House watched Jing Hongchen buy the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo.

However, outsiders should not know the exact location of the storage, which suggests that there is a traitor in a high position within the empire.

Orange nodded in agreement: "Your Highness, this traitor is far too dangerous for the empire. I suggest a thorough investigation. Otherwise, allowing such a mole to exist will undoubtedly be a terrible thing for the empire."

Xu Tianran agreed, saying, "That's right, this matter definitely needs to be thoroughly investigated."

As long as I ascend the throne, the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire will inevitably clash.

If a high-ranking member of the Sun and Moon forces were to stab them in the back, it would cause considerable trouble for the Sun and Moon army.

Xu Tianran naturally despised traitors.

In his view, the empire would eventually belong to him, and any so-called traitor, no matter how high their position, was harming his interests by betraying the empire.

"Ju Zi, I'll arrange for people to investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Remember, you must investigate thoroughly. Once you find this traitor, report to me and Master Kong immediately. This is a good opportunity to curry favor with Master Kong," Xu Tianran said calmly.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Ju Zi replied. Although she had now “betrayed” Xu Tianran, in Ju Zi’s view, it was because Xu Tianran didn’t treat her like a human being at all.

Despite having done so much for Xu Tianran, in Xu Tianran's mind, he was still just a useful and trustworthy tool.

"By the way, how are things going between you and Huo Yuhao?"

"Your Highness, things are progressing steadily. Because of my senior status, Huo Yuhao trusts me quite a bit now and has even asked me to help him purchase some personal items." Ju Zi lied directly.

Xu Tianran's face showed satisfaction: "Ju Zi, you did a great job. Huo Yuhao is highly valued by Elder Kong. If you want to get along well with Elder Kong, you can start by getting to know the people he values."

Don't worry, once Huo Yuhao is no longer useful, you won't have to suffer this injustice anymore.

Does she feel wronged? Orange doesn't think so. Huo Yuhao's cooking skills remind her of her father, so she naturally favors Huo Yuhao.

However, just because she thought that way didn't mean she would reveal it to Xu Tianran.

She is a very good actress.

Ju Zi looked at Xu Tianran, her face immediately filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Well, as long as you work for me properly, I guarantee that one day, Dai Hao will die at your hands, and then you can get your revenge." Xu Tianran began to make promises. He didn't have any grudge against Dai Hao, but he knew that Ju Zi and Dai Hao had a deep-seated hatred.

Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.

Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged on the ground, with a book in front of him—"The Secret of the Body".

This book comes from the book "Poison Never Dies" and records the method for awakening the original martial soul a second time.

This method was developed by the predecessors of the Body Sect over the generations and can be considered the "core technology" of the Body Sect.

This is also the driving force behind the Body Sect's continued attraction of wild Body Martial Soul owners.

After all, no force outside of the Body Sect has a way to make the Body Martial Soul awaken a second time.

If the owner of the Body Martial Soul does not join the Body Sect, it largely means that there is no chance for the Body Martial Soul to awaken a second time.

This is something that many people find unbearable.

After all, the allure of a second awakening of one's original martial soul is simply too great. Once awakened, even if it's only at the Black Iron level, it can increase the martial soul's combat power by 30%.

In the game, the second awakening of the main body's martial soul is divided into four levels: Iron, Bronze, Silver, and Gold.

The higher the level, the harder it is to awaken. Even Huo Gua, a peerless master, only awakened his Spirit Eye Martial Soul to the Gold level during his battle with the Mermaid Princess in the later stages of the game, under the stimulation of a desperate situation.

"Well, the general content is similar to the awakening of the main body martial soul in Dou San. It seems there are no errors or omissions. Moreover, it also records the experience of the main body sect members in awakening their martial souls. You can refer to it and avoid some detours."

The so-called second awakening is essentially about stimulating potential and allowing the martial soul to evolve.

However, does the Body Refinement Sect currently not even show any signs of developing body-refining techniques?
