The Evil Soul Master's Prison 3: Welcoming the Return of the Blue Silver Saintess
Chapter 90 The Evil Soul Master Lao San respectfully welcomes the Blue Silver Saintess back to her position.
Seeing Xuanzi leave, Mu En glared angrily at Yan Shaozhe and said:
"Do you know about his attempt to steal students? Do you know what kind of situation his actions are putting the academy in? And Mei'er is even joining in your nonsense!"
Yan Shaozhe nodded with a grim expression: "Elder Mu, please don't be angry. We are doing this for Xiao Tao and for the academy. This matter is simply too unbelievable. No matter what, a twelve-year-old child could not possibly withstand the power of a ferocious beast."
Moreover, why is it that precisely when Elder Xuan went to capture the evil spirit masters, evil spirit masters also came to cause us trouble? I suspect that the Sun Moon Empire is colluding with the evil spirit masters.
Old Master Mu was clearly still angry, and spoke with a strong sense of displeasure:
"If they are colluding with evil spirit masters, why didn't they guard against Fan Xuanzi capturing students, but instead relied on a twelve-year-old child? I think the Sun Moon faction never expected that this bastard Xuanzi would do such a thing."
Yan Shaozhe was speechless after hearing this, and not knowing how to defend Xuanzi, he could only change the subject:
"Elder Mu, things have come to this point, there's no use in saying any more blaming. We should think of a plan. We can't just sit here and wait to die. Who knows what the Sun Moon Empire will do next?"
"Sigh, Yunzhi, go and inform the Academy's Defense Department and the Shrek City Lord to strengthen defenses recently. Use all available defensive soul tools. Have one elder and two titled Douluo lead a team every day to monitor suspicious persons around Shrek City."
Mu En sighed, gave instructions to Old Song beside him, and then continued with a worried expression:
Anyway, I'm getting old and don't have a girlfriend, so going a few more times won't cause any problems. Besides, Shrek's salary for this month has been settled.
Upon seeing Kong Deming enter, Xu Tianran waved and greeted him, "Old Kong."
Yan Shaozhe nodded, his expression changing: "We did give it, but... are you sure you want to bring such a young child to the Sea God Pavilion? We've never had this kind of precedent before."
Upon hearing his words, most of the elders in the Sea God Pavilion nodded. Given Mu En's prestige and the fact that his words were correct, they were willing to listen.
"Shrek Xuanzi, a mere level 98, dares to act like this, and with the Holy Spirit Cult at that, this evil soul master really knows how to glorify himself. Hopefully, he won't harm the empire, otherwise..."
Beibei nodded emphatically. He hadn't seen Xiaoya much since the competition started, and he wondered how she was doing...
Prisoner Da and Prisoner Er sacrificed themselves for the glory of the Holy Church. I never expected that I, who was just sent to do errands, would encounter such a good prospect.
Lao San frowned. What's wrong with kids these days? I was just joking about sacrificing myself for the Holy Church, are you serious?
After personally strangling Tie Li to death with her blue silver bindings, Tang Ya couldn't help but cover her face and weep:
Jing Hongchen nodded angrily as well:
"Beibei, your injuries have almost healed, right? I need to tell you some things about the Sea God Pavilion and... Lexuan."
Kong Deming smiled in astonishment: "Very well, there are actually people who are not interested in the soul tools I, Kong Deming, make. This little guy is really interesting. Then let's do as you say. Whatever you need, I can apply to His Majesty and take it from the national treasury."
After hearing this, Mu En waved his hand with a cold face and said, "Do you really think that the Sun and Moon will let this go? We might as well bring this up ourselves and gain a reputation for being courageous and responsible. If they expose us, how should we deal with it?"
The man in black standing to the side looked at Tang Ya with loving eyes, a surge of joy welling up inside him:
Meanwhile, in Tiandou City, at the Iron Blood Sect...
Mu En nodded: "Go and call that student named Wang Dong. He's a student in your Martial Soul Department, right? You've already given him the status of a core disciple, haven't you?"
Two large plaques stood on either side of the entrance, while the interior of the sect was already in a state of chaos.
Inside Shrek City.
Even Elder Mu's prestige couldn't immediately subdue these people, and Yan Shaozhe was the first to lower his head and reply:
Thinking of this, Wang Yan's originally gloomy face improved a lot. He suddenly remembered the soul technician who massaged him yesterday. The essential oil produced by her oil bird martial soul was indeed a bit fragrant and moisturizing.
"Elder Mu, isn't this a bit too much? Elder Xuan is highly respected, and your approach will inevitably create a rift between him and us. Moreover, this concerns the academy's eternal honor. Shouldn't we reconsider?"
Seeing the latter's generous offer, he naturally had no choice but to force himself to emerge from the pain of losing his son and daughter and accept Moon's kindness.
Yan Shaozhe hesitated before asking again, "Then... Elder Mu, how should we handle the situation with Sun and Moon? Should we ignore it or do something else?"
Furthermore, I am serious about dealing with Xuanzi. Anyone who dares to let him get involved in academy affairs again will be kicked out of the Sea God Pavilion.
"Oh? That's really strange. This young fellow is so young, yet he's not arrogant at all, and he even asked for it himself. With such talent, our Sun Moon Sect must find a way to keep him. I think it would be better if I personally crafted a set of soul tools tailored to his needs?"
Jing Hongchen shook his head with some pain: "He suffered the biggest loss this time. Not only did he use so many trump cards, but he also suffered such serious injuries. Without him, we might not have made it back."
The punishment for Xuanzi was to tell him to focus on his cultivation from now on. What the hell were the other punishments? Was his drinking stopped, or was his chicken leg broken?
Sun and Moon Empire Hall of Worship.
However, Kong Deming failed to notice his change. After the emperor briefly explained his purpose, a look of fear appeared on the emperor's face as he looked at Kong Deming and replied:
Kong Deming was still somewhat incredulous after hearing this, asking, "Can this little guy's body really withstand the power of a ferocious beast?"
Kong Deming's face was grim. After listening to Jing Hongchen's report, a hint of anger appeared on his thin face:
Tang Ya first expressed her gratitude to her ancestors for their protection, then clenched her right fist and placed it against her heart, put her left hand behind her back, and smiled.
"Elder Kong, isn't that why I've come here to ask for your opinion? Should we fire one, or a few, of them with level nine fixed-mount soul-guided cannons?"
After a moment's hesitation, Moon spoke softly:
Kong Deming frowned after hearing this: "Although I am also very dissatisfied with their actions, now is not the time to start a war. His Majesty is still in charge, and I need to consult his opinion first."
Mu En waved his hand: "Just do it. Our relationship with Sun Moon Academy has completely broken down. We can no longer consider ourselves the number one academy on the continent. This defeat in the competition is a wake-up call for us."
At least I no longer have to cooperate with someone as brainless as Xuanzi, and I no longer have to worry about encountering evil spirit masters who threaten my life.
After hesitating for a moment, Jing Hongchen stammered, "This...it seems not."
After listening, Jing Hongchen calmed down and nodded. He also knew that this matter was of great importance. The people were currently immersed in the joy of winning the championship and had no intention of starting a war.
Other factions also have geniuses, some even stronger than us. Right now, we need to utilize every possible resource. The Sun and Moon's soul tools had already reached a terrifying level several years ago, and they're only going to get better now.
Yan Shaozhe shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, Elder Mu. The two seniors implied in their words that they would not interfere in Shrek's affairs. Trying to befriend them will only increase their resentment."
Inside the palace.
[A heart of unwavering loyalty] [An indomitable spirit that endures]
Beibei opened her eyes, a hint of hesitation flashing in them: "Please speak, Ancestor."
Moon smiled after hearing this, with an expression that seemed to say he had seen through the illusions of the world:
This is undoubtedly extremely bad news for the academy. Now, it remains to be seen whether they are prepared to go to war with Shrek Academy.
We must be careful to maintain a proper balance and not let her feel that we are using her. We can also give preferential treatment to her close friends to a certain extent. The support of those two mysterious seniors is a matter of life and death for the academy.
"It's time for this old body of mine to make some personal visits. Prepare some generous gifts for me; I'm going to comfort the families of the fallen and wounded trainees. Note the special treatment given to Wang Dong."
"Deming, what do you think?"
"We will take the initiative to explain the whole story. Elder Xuanzi of the Sea God Pavilion acted impulsively and hurt a student of Sun Moon Academy. Shrek Academy sincerely apologizes and has now expelled him from the Sea God Pavilion. Of course, we will not talk about Mei'er's matter and that boy's matter for the time being."
Jing Hongchen bowed slightly and cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, Elder Kong."
Kong Deming waved his hand: "Well, you can go now. I'll go discuss with His Majesty the matter of dealing with Shrek Academy."
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
Hehehe, her potential is not much worse than that of the Evil Phoenix. Devouring life force, in those Shrek idiots, that's called a so-called evil soul master, right? That's pure bullshit. She must be our future saintess!
"This is just the first step. I will make the Tang Clan's name resound throughout the entire continent. For the Tang Clan, I will give everything!"
After everyone responded, Mu En led Yan Shaozhe away slowly.
"Lin Dong should be fine, right? Has his potential been affected?"
"Sigh, their level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannons are not so easy to deal with. Moreover, if what you say is true, wouldn't we be offending a future super Douluo with an ultimate martial soul?"
After several days of running around, Mu En and his group finally managed to appease those forces. As forces that originally belonged to the Three Kingdoms, they held Mu En, the mysterious master of the Sea God Pavilion, in the utmost respect.
Jing Hongchen shook his head, looking troubled.
Seeing that she was still going to thank that so-called ancestor, he slapped Tang Ya unconscious, tucked her under his arm, and left straight away...
With slightly red eyes, Bei Bei replied, "Ancestor, please don't say that. You're still in good health. If... that day really comes, I will find a way to shoulder the responsibilities of the Sea God Pavilion and Shrek Academy. But... you know, my heart only has room for Xiao Ya."
"Xuanzi is too unreliable, and Shaozhe is too opposed to soul tools. After I die, the main responsibility for the Sea God Pavilion and Shrek Academy will fall on your and Lexuan's shoulders."
Seeing that they had no objections, Moon patted the back of his chair and then gave the order:
"Have those two mysterious experts who were responsible for protecting Wang Dong already left? If possible, I'd like to go and meet them in person. If I can get their help, things might be easier."
As for the academy's glory, we've been bound by this shackle for far too long; it's time to take it off for a while. Don't worry about Xuanzi; I'm still alive. He went too far this time. Let him come to me if he has any complaints.
Seeing him fall silent, Moon said nothing more, but simply patted him on the shoulder:
"Yes."
As he fell into thought, Kong Deming grabbed him and asked:
Back at the academy, Moon looked at Beibei cultivating under the golden tree, a gentle expression on his face, and slowly said:
Anyway, judging from the college's performance, it doesn't seem to intend to implicate his family. He might as well become a teacher who focuses on theoretical research and tutor the children of wealthy families to earn some extra money.
Kong Deming raised his eyes in surprise after hearing this:
Moon looked at him with a loving expression and said in a calm tone:
Jing Hongchen nodded: "That's right, I saw it with my own eyes. He deserves great credit this time, we can't let him down."
"Dad... Mom... Ancestor Tang San... Did you see that? Xiaoya finally did it. I've finally taken the first step in revitalizing the Tang Clan."
Not only should his teacher rating be lowered and his salary halved, but his office should also be downgraded by a grade. This is simply an insult to him!
Hearing this, Beibei sighed helplessly. He knew he couldn't change Moon's mind. In Shrek Academy, such dramatic love triangles were not uncommon.
"It's good that you know what's going on; I trust you completely."
An elderly man dressed in a dragon robe sat in a chair, while Xu Tianran sat in a wheelchair, seemingly discussing something with the emperor.
These words caused an uproar throughout the Sea God Pavilion. This concerned Shrek Academy's eternal glory, and it was a major stain that would be remembered by everyone!
He meticulously devised plans and tactics for Shrek Academy, but Xuanzi ignored them all. In the end, when things went wrong, he was made to bear most of the responsibility.
I sensed several presences approaching.
After Jing Hongchen left, Kong Deming murmured thoughtfully:
With a stern face, Kong Deming first bowed to the old emperor before smiling and nodding at him.
"What a Shrek Xuanzi! He actually did something like this. We really underestimated Shrek's domineering nature."
Kong Deming nodded solemnly: "He didn't make any requests, and we will do our best to meet them."
Yan Shaozhe nodded obediently to the side, and Mu En asked as if he suddenly remembered something:
"Elder Kong, I don't think he's very interested in our soul tools. He mainly wants to improve his soul power level. Why don't we give him the best pills and treasures to enhance his physical strength? I think he'll accept that."
Wang Yan, carrying his briefcase, walked out of the academy gate with an indignant expression. As the teacher who led the team with Elder Xuan this time, he was inevitably affected, and even suffered the most.
"Sometimes, for men, certain women are destined to remain only in their hearts. Le Xuan is the most suitable for you. Besides, I didn't ask you to marry only one woman."
Wang Yan, who was already dissatisfied with Xuanzi's actions, finally snapped. After arguing with the teacher in charge of personnel management at the academy, he resigned in anger.
Grandpa, I will inherit your mantle and position. You can rest in peace now…
A subtle flicker of emotion flashed in Xu Tianran's eyes. It seemed that Kong Deming was reminding him of his status as a subject.
I woke up late; I'm currently writing the second chapter, and it will be released this afternoon. The book club group is already set up; feel free to join if you'd like. I can also ask you some questions there.
