The Legend of the Dragon King

Panda Novel

The Branch Pagoda Master who sat on the right-hand seat drily said, “Don’t tell me that you actually think that the Dou Spirit Empire can hold off the federation’s battleships. What’s the status of Dou Spirit Empire’s military?”

“Of course it’s impossible. Even with the addition of the Star Luo Empire, it’s still insufficient to fight against the federation. However, I’m more worried about our old nemesis. Although Tang Sect’s headquarters has been destroyed, their arrogance in Dou Spirit Empire is growing rampant. The royal family is pushing us away too. They’re instigating the royal family to believe that we had something to do with this war. Whether they’re helping the Dou Spirit Empire or not will be a point of uncertainty. Actually, we know that nobody can beat the Tang Sect in manufacturing good quality fixed soul ammunitions. If the federation didn’t place control over some unique metals, Tang Sect would’ve long ago produced fixed soul ammunitions of rank-9 and above. We’re not entirely sure about the depth of Tang Sect’s inner secrets.”

The Branch Pagoda Master slightly furrowed his brows. “You mean you’re worried about Tang Sect supporting the Dou Spirit Empire?”

“Yes. Although there’s no clear indication that such a thing might happen, we have received news that Tang Sect members are getting very close to Dou Spirit Empire’s royal family in these recent months. With Tang Sect’s access to information, it’s only natural that they’ve notified Dou Spirit Empire’s royal family about the possible war. This isn’t the federation. Tang Sect’s influence here is greater than ours. We can’t help but lay up against a rainy day.”

The Branch Pagoda Master nodded. “That’s a real problem. When are they leaving? If they haven’t left, I’m afraid we’ll be needing their help this time. We can’t go up against Tang Sect on our own.”

“The results of the research are basically completed, they will leave after they get the product. We’ll clear out every researcher and won’t leave any trace behind.”

” The research has finally borne fruit after so many years. I hope that they can treasure it. Truth be told, I don’t think that it’s good news. If the Pagoda Master didn’t think that we’re capable of controlling them completely, that gang of crazy ones is just…”

“Enough, we shall not discuss that here. Tell our people in Heaven Dou City to keep their eyes open. Have them report any sign of disturbance or trouble to us, especially when there are strangers going in or out of the castle. We’ll also report to the Pagoda Master about our situation here. I’m sure that the federation will make their move in at most half a year’s time.”

“Understood.”

…

Tang Wulin walked into Spirit Pagoda and kept his gaze forward. He did not look around. With his spiritual cultivation base, his spiritual power alone allowed him to clearly sense everything around him.

After two days of studying his new identity, he had basically memorized everything there was to this identity.

An executive officer was considered a middle-rank officer in the Spirit Pagoda Branch. An executive officer’s main responsibility was to deal with trivial matters on a daily basis, which included purchasing and distributing various goods. It could be considered a cushy job and it was only natural for an executive officer to know a lot of people. His current identity was called Ni Zhen. Due to his plump build and Elemental Dragon martial soul, he was called as Little Fat Dragon by the people in Spirit Pagoda.

He wore a perpetual smile on his face and looked harmless. For Tang Wulin, it was not a difficult thing to alter his build with Body Sect’s Secret Technique. He had also concealed his cultivation base. He kept greeting the people he met along the way. Because he was always tactful in dealing with others, this Little Fat Dragon was liked by many.

According to Ni Zhen’s information and map, Tang Wulin could basically confirm that there was some special underground place. He was not sure if it was a research laboratory, but he had some clues. Tang Wulin was not overly worried about his own safety. As long as he did not bump into a Limit Douluo, it would not be a problem for him to escape unscathed with his arrangements. There were no Limit Douluos in the entire Dou Spirit Empire. This was also why it was the weakest among the three great forces. Its overall strength was not even half that of the Star Luo Empire’s strength.

Tang Wulin dallied within Spirit Pagoda before returning to his office. He handled a few daily tasks in the way Ni Zhen taught him.

Someone knocked on his door.

“Come in,” Tang Wulin said with a smile.

The door was pushed open and a beautiful lively girl walked in. She looked about twenty-seven years old. Her beauty was above average and her build was gorgeous as well. She had a smile on her face. “Little Fat Dragon, can you help me out?”

Tang Wulin quickly searched among the information Ni Zhen had given him. The identity of this girl immediately surfaced in his mind. She was also an executive officer and was in charge of the spirit ascension platform. This meant that she had greater power than Ni Zhen. She was a coquettish married woman who spent her days flirting with others in Spirit Pagoda. It was said that she was flirting with a high-ranking officer. Her husband was out of town and thus was not around. Her name was Jia Feifei.

“Feifei, what do you want?” Tang Wulin looked at the young married woman before him with a fake skittish gaze. However, he had already stood up.

Jia Feifei replied, “What else would it be? You know that we need more clothes than others. Give me another ten sets of uniform.”

Tang Wulin awkwardly said, “Feifei, I don’t think that’s very appropriate. The uniforms I have with me have been accounted for. You’ve taken five sets the other day. If you take another ten sets, it’ll be difficult for me to explain it to the higher-ups when they come checking.”

Jia Feifei walked up to him and pinched the “fatty flesh” on his waist. She threw him a flirtatious look and said, “Don’t give me that. Everyone knows that you’re in full control over the goods here. Quickly do this for me.”

Tang Wulin looked helpless. “Feifei, I really can’t! It’s not that I don’t want to help you out, but…”

Jia Feifei humphed and stood with her hands on her hips. “Are you trying to play dumb with me? I’m telling you, the deputy Pagoda Master knows about this as well. Do it quickly or else the deputy Pagoda Master won’t be as easy to talk to if he comes looking for you.”

Tang Wulin knew full well about why Jia Feifei needed more uniforms. Spirit Pagoda was a very strict organization. Everyone’s uniform had their own serial number to facilitate their travels. The possession of a uniform meant that one had an extra identity in Spirit Pagoda. She was trying to have secret underhand dealings by accepting outsiders into the spirit ascension platform to earn some money.

This was not Feifei’s first time doing such a thing. However, she was asking for a lot of uniforms this time.

Of course, these matters had nothing to do with Tang Wulin. However, he could not hand them over directly. That would have been too obvious.

“Alright, alright. Feifei, but you must help me put in a good word or two with the deputy Pagoda Master if something happens.” Tang Wulin made a helpless face.

Jia Feifei’s face beamed with delight. “Alright! Let’s go. This time, it’s really from the deputy Pagoda Master. Otherwise, do you think I’d take that many at once? They’re for some guests of honor. There won’t be an issue,” she hugged Tang Wulin’s arm as she said this and rubbed it against her own body.

Tang Wulin had to fight back the disgust within his heart. He slightly nodded. “You want them now?”

“Of course it’s now. Let’s go!” As she said this, Jia Feifei pulled on his arm and they exited his office.

Tang Wulin was pulled towards the stock warehouse and took ten sets of uniforms which he then passed to Feifei.

“Feifei, who are the guests of honor that you mentioned?” Tang Wulin ventured with a question.

A dash of fear flashed across Jie Feifei’s eyes. “I don’t know.”

She clearly unwillingly said these words. It was only natural for Tang Wulin to pick up on that. However, her expression had also increased the puzzlement in Tang Wulin’s heart. Who could make a Spirit Pagoda executive officer feel this afraid? The change in Jia Feifei’s emotions had piqued his interest.

“Do you need my help in sending them over?” Tang Wulin pointed to the uniforms in her hands.

Jia Feifei replied. “Of course I do! Did you plan to let me take all this by myself? If you’re coming with me, I’ll feel braver.”

Tang Wulin could be even more certain that there was something wrong about these guests of honor. He followed Jia Feifei to Spirit Pagoda Branch’s elevator with a poker face.

When they entered the elevator, Jia Feifei pressed the button that represented the lower third ground floor. Tang Wulin felt happy. This was because his very goal for infiltrating was to get to the lower third ground floor.

Ni Zhen had been to the lower third ground floor. However, the security there was too tight. Ordinary members were not allowed there. He could only guess that the lower third ground floor was at least thirty meters below the ground. The defense system was the best within Spirit Pagoda. Even if a high-ranking soul master made it in, it would be difficult for them to escape with life.

He never thought that he would have such luck to be able to enter right after he got here.

The elevator arrived in no time.” The elevator doors slid open with a soft “ding. Tang Wulin walked out from the elevator and quietly spread out his spiritual power. Since he was at the lower third ground floor, it should be easier for him to discover the whereabouts of his parents with his spiritual cultivation base.
