Chapter 6 Zhang Lexuan
Shrek Academy
In the New Student Dormitory, an old man lay there. The old man had a very ordinary appearance and was not tall. His voice gave people a soul-cleansing feeling, but his age could not be discerned.
He was dressed in a grey cloth robe, and the wrinkles on his face were enough to trap dozens of flies simultaneously. His eyes were cloudy, his eyelids drooped, and he looked like he was on his last legs.
The old man, Mu En, was the current Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, a Level 99 attack system Limit Douluo, titled “Dragon God,” with the Martial Soul of Holy Light Dragon.
After his battle with the Body Sect Master, Du Bisi, he attempted to absorb the power of a dragon pill to recover from his injuries and break through to Level 99. However, the hidden malevolence within the dragon pill caused his body to be unable to straighten, with his waist almost bowed ninety degrees when standing, requiring a cane to support himself. Thus, he often lay on a reclining chair.
At this moment, he lay there, feeling the vibrant aura of the New Students. Only in this way could he feel that he was still so young and energetic.
“Youth is truly wonderful!” Mu En sighed inwardly, sensing someone approaching. His cloudy eyes slowly opened, looking at the newcomer. Seeing that it was Zhang Lexuan, he asked with some surprise and curiosity, “Le Xuan, what happened that brought you to me, an old man?”
Zhang Lexuan came to Mu Lao’s side and respectfully said, “Mu Lao!”
“You don’t need to be so respectful out here. I’m just an old man about to retire.”
Hearing Mu Lao’s words, Zhang Lexuan looked at the frail Mu Lao, her heart filled with worry and pain, never expecting that Mu Lao was slowly aging without her realizing it.
“Mu Lao, I just met a young man at the Shrek City Food Street. The moment I saw him, my Martial Soul trembled, or rather, it was excited…” Zhang Lexuan recounted everything she encountered at the Food Street and her thoughts to Mu Lao in detail.
Mu Lao listened very carefully and quickly offered his thoughts, “That child’s Martial Soul might possess a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with your Martial Soul. An excited reaction couldn’t be fear.”
“Is that so?” Zhang Lexuan’s mind fell into thought.
Mu En looked at the pensive Zhang Lexuan and fell silent. When he learned this news from Zhang Lexuan, he began to doubt whether his actions at the time were correct.
“A young man who possesses a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Zhang Lexuan, if he joins Shrek Academy, can he help Zhang Lexuan improve her Soul Power? And if he can fuse with Le Xuan’s Martial Soul, the quality of the young man’s Martial Soul must also be very high.” Mu En couldn’t help but think. He had known earlier that he should have gone out with Zhang Lexuan at that time and brought that young man back to Shrek Academy.
His time was truly running out.
“Thank you, Mu Lao, for clearing my doubts. Le Xuan will go down to cultivate first to prepare for the next Soul Master Competition.” Zhang Lexuan quickly recovered and respectfully said to Mu Lao.
Mu Lao looked at the departing Zhang Lexuan, still unable to help but speak, “Le Xuan, actually, you don’t have to abide by our agreement at that time.”
“I apologize, Mu Lao, I am a person who keeps my promises.”
Leaving these words, Zhang Lexuan walked towards the Sea God Lake. She had long loved Bei Bei, and it was impossible for her heart to hold anyone else.
“Alas~” Mu En stared at Zhang Lexuan’s retreating figure, ultimately only able to sigh. It seemed he truly couldn’t persuade anyone.
Like Elder Xiao, like Xuan Zi, like Shao Zhe, and now Le Xuan too.
Mu En: ε = (ο`*) ) ) Alas
He could only turn his gaze back to the New Students, feeling the vitality in them, so he wouldn’t feel so tired and powerless.
Where exactly is the person who will carry the banner in the future? —
Tianhun Empire Hotel
Tian Mucheng finally regained all his strength and means. He sat up and opened the box beside him. The moment he saw what was inside the box, his mind was a bit blank.
Photo???
The item in the box was actually a photo, but why were those people looking for this photo?
Are they crazy to look for it?
Or something else...
Tian Mucheng turned to the other side. “Zhang?” On the back of the photo was the character “Zhang,” and nothing else.
“No, that’s not right!” Tian Mucheng immediately realized something and looked at the front: an old man and a young woman. The old man was an old man, and the young woman was a girl, and she looked very familiar.
Zhang? Girl? Could it be Zhang Lexuan?
Oh my goodness!
It couldn’t be such a coincidence, could it?
Could I be the Son of Destiny?
But why am I so frail and sickly!
Jin Tianming also leaned over at this moment, looking at the girl in the photo, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “The World is truly small. What are you going to do, Engulfing Sky Dragon?” After speaking, he stared curiously at Tian Mucheng, truly looking forward to Engulfing Sky Dragon’s next plan.
There was also a piece of paper at the bottom of the box. Tian Mucheng curiously picked it up to examine it.
“Xiao Cheng, when you get the photo, I, the old man, will know that you have survived. I, the old man, have no children, so I treated you like my own grandson and kept you by my side. But when I learned about your Martial Soul and physical defects, I initially planned to send you to Shrek Academy.
But then I thought that your Soul Power aptitude would probably make it very difficult to cultivate above Level 15, so I could only keep you by my side.
I, the old man, used to be a member of the Zhang family, a noble family in the Tianhun Empire. One time, I returned from an outing to find the Zhang family annihilated. I was filled with hatred and wanted revenge, but when I reached that family, I learned that they had already been killed by the Shrek Monitoring Group.
My elder brother’s granddaughter was taken as a disciple by Shrek Academy. When the royal family learned that I was still alive, they wanted to silence me. They were afraid that I would go to that girl, Le Xuan, and tell her the truth. At that moment, I understood that the noble family that could annihilate the Zhang family definitely had the shadow of the royal family behind them.
From that day on, I started to flee everywhere, and I picked you up along the way.
A Cheng! If you are ever in danger in the future, take this paper I left for you and that paper made by a Soul Master using a Soul Skill. You can take these to Shrek Academy and find that girl Le Xuan. If you tell her my name, she will still take care of you.”
“Engulfing Sky Dragon, that old man has already paved the way for you.” Jin Tianming immediately saw what the old man wanted to do: leave a backup plan for Engulfing Sky Dragon and pave the way for his future.
This grandfather of Engulfing Sky Dragon was not his biological one, or perhaps he was.
I envy you, I envy you.
Tian Mucheng took out the last item from the box, a spatial Soul Guidance Device ring, and put it on his thumb. He put all these things back into the box and into the ring, shaking his head, “I have my own path to walk now. Since the old man is gone, I owe Zhang Lexuan a favor, that’s all.”
“Are you that decisive?”
“In the future, it’s impossible for me to get Engulfing Sky Dragon into Shrek Academy.” Tian Mucheng had already thought it through. His current sickly body could not enter Shrek Academy, otherwise, something unexpected would definitely happen.
Tian Mucheng thought of something and looked at this arrogant clone, saying, “Tianming, you need to cultivate harder. There are still arrangements to be made at Sun Moon Royal Academy. If possible, you should win over Meng Hongchen.”
“Apologies, Engulfing Sky Dragon, my pride does not allow me to rise through a woman!”
Jin Tianming refused Engulfing Sky Dragon’s request this time. For him, conquering everything with his own strength was what he wanted.
Tian Mucheng heard Jin Tianming’s answer and was not angry. This clone was only obedient in front of him; in front of outsiders, he was arrogant. He simply said, “As you wish.”
He then began to ponder again. Jin Tianming going to Sun Moon Royal Academy was already enough. For Shrek Academy, at least two or three clones would be needed, especially for the Golden Tree and the planar seed within it.
During the third era of Douluo, A Yin devoured the core of life and became the new core of life. Could he use the dragon soul for engulfing?
He summoned the transparent dragon soul, vaguely feeling that the dragon soul’s ability was still just the tip of the iceberg.
