Nana stared at them coldly, her eyes icy and piercing. "The Holy Spirit Cult? I've never truly joined, so how can you call me a traitor? I was coerced by you before; today, I'm here to collect my debt!"
"You're asking for death! Don't you care about the souls of your parents?" the two Holy Spirits threatened in a shrill voice, a tactic they habitually used and considered most effective.
Mentioning her parents, Nana's eyes flashed with a mixture of pain and murderous intent. Her fists clenched so tightly her knuckles turned white. "Because of them, none of you will live today! I will make sure that you beasts who destroyed my family die without a proper burial! I will liberate all the souls here that you have enslaved!"
Before she finished speaking, she stopped suppressing her aura.
A suffocatingly terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire courtyard.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red!
Nine spirit rings rose one after another from beneath her feet. The most dazzling and alluring 100,000-year spirit ring, radiating a power that sent shivers down one's spine, was like a blood-red sun, scorching the vision and perception of the Great Holy Spirit and the Second Holy Spirit.
"A Title Douluo? A 100,000-year soul ring! This is impossible, absolutely impossible! You just broke through to Soul King a month ago!" The two Soul Saint leaders looked as if they had seen a ghost. Their pupils shrank, their bodies trembled violently, and their minds went blank. They simply could not understand this scene that defied common sense!
Nana's lips curled into a cold, triumphant smile. "You frogs in a well, how could you possibly understand my master's extraordinary abilities? Your end has come! Sixth Soul Skill, Soul Liberation!"
Her black sixth soul ring suddenly shone brightly, and a strange and magnificent soul fluctuation spread from her to every corner of the branch altar like mercury spilling onto the ground!
The next moment, a shocking scene unfolded. All the evil magical devices used to imprison souls within the branch altar shattered, and illusory, tormented figures broke free. The confusion and pain in their eyes quickly faded, replaced by clarity and freedom! Countless imprisoned and tormented souls were liberated in this instant!
"ah--!"
"No! My soul's servant!"
"What happened? Who broke my soul skill?"
Immediately afterwards, the entire branch altar of the Holy Spirit Cult was filled with the terrified and heart-wrenching screams of the evil spirit masters. Those souls that had lost control, along with Nana's merciless ghostly power, began their reckoning and revenge!
About half an hour later, the entire branch altar fell completely silent. All the evil spirit masters had been killed, and the stench of blood and dissipated soul energy filled the air.
Those two Soul Saints were also personally crushed into powder by Nana.
Deep within a broken altar, Nana found the two souls she had longed for, their bodies shimmering with a soft light—her parents. She threw herself into their illusory yet warm embrace, and the pent-up grievances, fears, longing, and joy of the moment burst forth, causing her to weep uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.
She recounted her experiences over the years to her parents, but glossed over all the hardships and obstacles, only mentioning that she had met a great man who helped her achieve her current success and gave her the power to rescue her parents. She painted a bright future for her, so that her parents would have no more worries.
Upon hearing that their daughter had such a fortunate turn of events, Nana's parents' once-dreamy faces broke into smiles of relief and comfort. As long as their daughter was safe and sound, they had no more worries.
Before dawn, the souls of Nana's parents became increasingly transparent and peaceful; it was time for them to go to their final resting place. Although Nana was extremely reluctant to leave, she knew deep down that this was the best ending.
Possessing a ghostly martial spirit, she understands the difference between humans and ghosts better than anyone else. What she seeks is never to keep her parents in the human world for long, but to free them from torment and grant them the peace and freedom they deserve.
She gazed in the direction where her parents' souls were fading, tears streaming down her face, yet a relieved and resolute smile graced her lips. "Dad, Mom, rest in peace. Nana has grown up. From now on, I'll take care of myself. I will avenge you!"
Afterwards, she composed herself and returned to the hotel.
When Dai Youheng saw her return, he calmly asked, "Is everything resolved?"
Nana didn't answer immediately. She walked up to Dai Youheng with an extremely solemn expression, then knelt down with a series of thuds and kowtowed three times.
Raising her head, her eyes were filled with boundless gratitude and absolute loyalty. Her voice was clear and firm, "Young Master, the release of my parents' souls and the avenging of my blood feud are all thanks to your grace and power. From this day forward, Nana will be your most loyal subordinate and your sharpest blade for life! Wherever your will leads, Nana will go, even if it means facing mountains of knives and seas of fire, without hesitation!"
A satisfied smile appeared on Dai Youheng's face as he gently helped Nana, who was kneeling on the ground, to her feet. "I appreciate your loyalty."
He said calmly, "Now that you're ready, I have the first task for you to do."
Nana immediately straightened up, her gaze intense. "Please give your orders, Young Master!"
"Return to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy." Dai Youheng gave the order directly. "You are a formal student of the academy and have the right to access the library to borrow materials. I want you to borrow as many books as possible related to soul tools, especially blueprints, detailed explanations of core magic arrays, alloy formulas, and the like. Borrow as many as you can and bring them all back to me."
Nana instantly understood Dai Youheng's intention: he wanted to seize the essence of the soul tool technology accumulated by the Sun Moon Empire over thousands of years!
Nana felt no guilt towards an empire that had long been secretly colluding with evil soul-master organizations like the Holy Spirit Cult; instead, she felt a surge of vengeful pleasure.
But she immediately thought of the difficulties in actual implementation, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Young Master, this is my duty. But there are two problems. First, the soul tool information available to the public in the academy library only goes up to level seven. The core technologies of level eight and above are all kept in the Mingde Hall and the Sun Moon Empire's Hall of Worship, which ordinary students cannot access at all."
"Secondly, I only have one student ID card, and each card has strict limits on the number of cards that can be borrowed and the time they can be limited. Even if I want to go back and forth frequently, I must return the ones I've already borrowed before I can borrow new ones. I can't possibly borrow a whole batch every time, so you have to memorize the contents and then I have to return them, can I?"
The academy's library is vast and complex; this method is far too inefficient and extremely easy to expose.
However, Dai Youheng seemed to have anticipated these difficulties, a knowing smile playing on his lips. "No problem. Since the highest level is only seven, we'll focus on the data for levels six and seven. As for levels below five, the Star Luo Empire has already acquired quite a bit through years of research, so their value is relatively low."
"As for the borrowing restrictions," he looked at Nana, a meaningful glint in his eyes, "Heh, didn't you just obtain a powerful eighth soul skill? Perfect opportunity to test its effects."
Nana was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "Young Master means I should use the Soul Thread?"
"That's right." Dai Youheng nodded. "You can find suitable targets—students who frequently spend time in the library, have high borrowing privileges, or are elites in the Soul Guidance Department. Subtly control them with your soul threads, making them use their cards to borrow the books we need, and then voluntarily and willingly hand them all over to you. In this way, the problem of the single card limitation will be easily solved, won't it?"
He paused, then continued refining the plan, "After collecting a batch, we'll immediately leave Mingdu and return to Xingluo. By the time the higher-ups at Sun Moon Academy discover that a large number of valuable books are overdue, or even that several students are behaving abnormally, we'll already be thousands of miles away. Even if they want to track us down, it will probably be too late!"
Nana's eyes lit up as she listened. The plan was bold and efficient, making perfect use of her new ability and minimizing the risks.
She admired Dai Youheng's strategies immensely.
"Understood, Young Master! Your plan is brilliant!" Nana's face lit up with eager anticipation. "Please rest assured, Young Master, I will do my utmost to borrow as much information as possible about the level six and seven soul tools from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy—and I mean, I'll borrow them and never return them!"
"Haha, very good, you're teachable. Go ahead. Be careful, safety first," Dai Youheng instructed.
"Yes!" Nana accepted the order, and with a flicker of her figure, she vanished as if blending into the shadows, heading straight for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. A clandestine relocation operation targeting the Empire's Soul Tool Technology Depot had begun.
