Peerless: The Evil Soul Master's Guide to Saving the World

Chapter 223: Both sides lose, Xu Cheng wins

Above Shrek Academy.

Several black robes were fluttering, and the wide cloaks were fluttering in the wind. Black blood energy was floating around them, mixed with dark clouds, giving people a sense of the end of the world.

Countless residents of Shrek City dared only to retreat into corners, close their doors, and quietly wait for the storm to pass.

Ye Xishui put his hands behind his back and stared coldly at the city.

Although Moon was not dead, he was very old. She really wanted to know how Moon would respond if she appeared here at this moment.

Should he surrender and beg her to let him go, or should he be as stubborn as before, stick to justice and fight to the death.

"Buzz!"

But the next moment.

A golden beam of light rose from the location of Poseidon Pavilion.

The powerful aura was no longer concealed, and like a real dragon soaring into the sky, a holy dragon of light appeared in everyone's sight.

What is even more shocking is the Lord of the Light Dragon.

A middle-aged man standing proudly in the air, exuding a holy aura.

"Who dares to cause trouble in Shrek? You are courting death!"

He did not look at his former iron triangle partners, but flicked his sleeves lightly, and the terrifying residual power dissipated, pulling out dozens of black-robed figures from Shrek Academy, and then he vomited blood and retreated explosively.

"Moon!!!"

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao spoke almost at the same time.

The former's eyes were full of disbelief, her fists clenched tightly. The information she had received was that Moon was in critical condition and was about to die, but this lively appearance made her heart tremble violently.

He is a little older than when we parted, but still very handsome. Standing in the light, his broad back is enough to make all the people in the same camp feel at ease. Although he is not the most powerful or wisest of all the leaders of Poseidon Pavilion, he is definitely the most "stable".

wrong!

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

They are now enemies, mortal enemies!
"You are actually alive..."

Long Xiaoyao was confused: "Even a last burst of energy can't be this strong, right?"

"Old friend, long time no see." After cleaning up the miscellaneous fish, Moon En glanced at the two of them. When he passed by Ye Xishui, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

When he chose to give up love back then, how could it be as easy as he told Yan Shaozhe?
Since then, he has kept his heart sealed for a hundred years, but that fairy-like figure will always occupy a place in his heart.

Unfortunately……

He looked at the black-robed figure that was full of evil spirits and had evil spirits floating around her, and shook his head sadly. She had changed.

"We have all changed, but you remain spotless." Long Xiaoyao sighed.

"Spotless, haha, people always change, sometimes they are forced by the situation, sometimes they have no choice." Moon sighed softly towards the sky.

"This is not a place to reminisce about the past. Would you like to come to Poseidon Pavilion to have a chat?"

Long Xiaoyao subconsciously looked at Ye Xishui beside him.

But the latter said coldly: "Anyone who dares to stop the Holy Spirit will be killed without mercy!"

"If we work together, we may be able to kill him."

As he spoke, blood-red color emanated from his body, and the overwhelming evil intent was completely released, dyeing half of the sky blood-red. The large area of ​​sky behind Moon was emitting a sacred and bright color, and the two skies were divided into two with a clear boundary.

"Xishui, we haven't seen each other for many years, why are you so heartless?" Long Xiaoyao said helplessly.

"Heartless? I am an evil person, he is a righteous person. We are naturally opposed to each other. This is a life-and-death battle, not a reminiscing scene of little girls." Ye Xishui said coldly.

"Can……"

"Long Xiaoyao, do you know why I liked him instead of you?"

"I……"

"Because you are a coward. No matter what you do, you are always submissive. You are afraid of falling into the evil path and affecting your reputation, but you don't want to leave me. You are neither righteous nor evil. You are not as decisive as Moon!"

Ye Xishui showed no mercy.

Countless people looked up at this scene in confusion, and a few people showed surprise on their faces, as if they recognized the name.

He was once the most arrogant person in the continent, worshipped by countless people and regarded as an idol by countless people. But now... he is being scolded by a woman like a dog.

However, Long Xiaoyao showed a bitter smile, as if he was coaxing Ye Xishui, with an expression that said, "I can do anything as long as you are happy."

"Huh..." Ye Xishui's anger was suppressed and swallowed silently. Then it turned into fighting intention, and he looked at Moon En with raging dark energy in his eyes.

"Tower of Death!"

Behind him, a pitch-black iron tower hundreds of meters tall slowly emerged. Its exterior seemed to be smeared with blood, and on each floor there were hideous and terrifying faces struggling and twisting. Peeking from the bottom, there was only bottomless eerie darkness inside the tower.

"..." Moon looked solemn as he stared at the tall tower.

This tower alone involves at least thousands of souls. They are swallowed by the tower and then turned into nutrients to supply the final one - Ye Xishui.

Moreover, these thousands of souls were far from enough to feed the tower. As an Ultimate Douluo, he could tell at a glance that this was far from the limit of the tower.

And if tens of thousands of people were to fill it up, the power of this tower would probably surpass that of the Ultimate Douluo, and even he would not be its opponent.

"Even if I die, I must take her with me to be buried with me!" Moon's heart was heavy.

The joy of reuniting with friends and the excitement of seeing his former lover had long since turned into a resolute murderous intent.

If he died two years later, without him, would Shrek Academy become a slaughterhouse for Ye Xi's Water Holy Spirit Church?

The consequences were so disastrous that he didn't even dare to think about it.

"In this case, we have different paths of good and evil, and the battle today will determine the winner..." Moon said calmly.

"Hahaha, Moon, this is why I like you." Ye Xishui glanced at Moon with obsession, and then suddenly turned into a hint of madness in her beautiful eyes.

The Tower of Death vibrated and hummed, and countless evil spirits floated out and rushed towards Moon.

……

"Moon is still alive?" Xu Cheng was stunned. "No, he has recovered his strength? Impossible!"

In the original novel, he is the head of the Sea God Pavilion and a level 99 Ultimate Douluo. His injuries were so severe that even Wang Xian'er could only ask him to eat something good. But now, good news suddenly came. His arms no longer hurt, his waist no longer felt sore, his legs and feet were nimble, and he felt more energetic!
This is this...

Xu Cheng frowned and pondered.

In the original novel, Moon is Shrek's mainstay. Even if it costs Shrek all his family fortune, Shrek will never miss a chance to extend Moon's life. But even Shrek can only watch Moon leave, which shows how serious his injury is.

unless……

Xu Cheng's eyes narrowed: "God?!!" "No!"

He quickly rejected it again.

According to the meaning of destruction, now both good and evil have returned, plus he and the God of Life, the four God King-level beings are all eyeing Douluo Star. He doesn't believe that Tang San dares to do anything openly - otherwise he wouldn't have sent a clone down.

He had been staring at the clone, and almost killed himself, but he didn't notice anything unusual.

That means that the God King Tang doesn’t even dare to contact his own clone!
Being so cautious, it is highly likely that he is not Tang San.

Then who could it be?

"But they both suffered heavy losses." Nana said with a smile, "It is said that this battle was so fierce that cracks appeared in the Death God Tower. Although Moon severely injured the Supreme Elder, he was not much better. His hair was half white and his body was almost unstable. He needed Yan Shaozhe to support him - Moon was definitely going for a life-and-death battle."

"Yeah." Xu Cheng nodded slightly, and his face felt a lot more relaxed.

I got news yesterday that when the Grand Elder came back, he was supported, and then he immediately went into seclusion and we haven't received any news since. I'm afraid his injuries are much more serious than I expected!

Moreover, this level of trauma may not be able to be healed.

Didn’t you see that Moon lost hundreds of years of his life in a fight with Du Bi Si, and Shrek couldn’t heal him no matter how hard he tried…

The Holy Spirit Church is a double-edged sword. It is a sharp weapon if used properly, but one must also be careful of the backlash.

Therefore, these two great mountains still put a lot of pressure on Xu Cheng, but now that Moon has "returned to glory", he has fought with Ye Xishui again, which is a win-win situation! (Xu Cheng won twice)

"Yes, especially those who followed Ye Xishui, most of them were priests who leaned towards their faction, and the four elders, all of whom suffered heavy casualties. On our side, only Priest Wu Crow went, but he was unharmed thanks to his life-saving skills." Nana's eyes curved, unable to hide her joy.

"I want to develop peacefully. Doesn't this give me the opportunity?" Xu Cheng laughed.

He had always been worried that Ye Xishui would cause trouble. After all, she had been urging him impatiently before. He didn't expect that she would do something now and go to Shrek Academy to "steal people" in a swagger, but ended up losing more than she gained.

"Then next, we have to deal with those provincial dukes." Xu Cheng smiled.

In fact, the incident with Duke Baihu was a lesson for him. Although the Sun-Moon Empire was powerful and mostly concentrated in Mingdu, even if those duke provinces wanted to rebel, they were no match at all - the frontline soldiers all took orders directly from Mingdu.

What's more, the Brilliant Duke in the original novel was a man who was not afraid of death. He dared to revolt relying on the strength of a few hundred ordinary soul masters and eighth-level soul engineers.

Although this thing can't kill people, it's disgusting.

Xu Cheng tapped the chair handle gently.

Five years ago, he was planning to use Emperor Wu of Han's "Enfeoffment Order" to gradually divide the people. However, although he had the support of the Holy Spirit Church at that time, his prestige was not high due to his strength, and he did not have the support of Mingde Hall, Kong Lao and others. He had no choice but to think of this solution.

And now, he has almost completely controlled 50 to 60 percent of the power in Mingdu, and it only takes a word for him to flatten various provinces.

"Then... let's release the military power over a cup of wine, find a reason to bring those provincial dukes back to Mingdu, and then send high-ranking officials to govern them, so as to centralize power."

"What if someone doesn't come?"

"Not coming? Haha, that gives me a chance." Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes. "Notify Aunt Qing to tighten the security in Mingdou Mountain Range. Do not let any forces pass through it. Close the door and beat the dog! Especially keep an eye on the Brilliant Duke. Send spies into the Duke's mansion. If there is any unusual movement, capture them directly to scare the monkeys!"

"How can we govern the Sun-Moon Empire if we work with this bunch of insects?"

"Your Highness, your ambitions are so grand..." Nana said yearningly.

"Haha, their so-called overthrow of the regime is nothing more than picking up the corpses, putting on new skins, and continuing the cannibalism of the old world." Xu Cheng said lightly.

"But the old world has been broken, so we should build a new world..."

……

"Huchihuchi~"

Inside the Shrek Academy training room.

Dai Huabin fell to his knees with a thud. His legs and feet were weak and he couldn't get up. Seeing this, Zhu Lu hurried forward to support him. She said with red eyes, "You've been overtraining for a week. Your body will collapse sooner or later..."

"Don't stop me! Don't stop me!" Dai Huabin pushed Zhu Lu away.

He climbed up tremblingly and said to the teacher in front of him: "Please continue. I want to squeeze out the last bit of soul power so that the training can be more effective."

"You are overdrawing your talent." The middle-aged man opposite shook his head and turned away.

"Don't go, I can still continue! Don't go..." Dai Huabin collapsed on the ground, pounding the ground hard and sobbing.

"My mother and elder brother are dead, my father's life and death are unknown, all my relatives have left, what's the point of me living!"

"This is something my eldest brother gave me to keep before he left..." Zhu Lu supported Dai Huabin distressedly, "Because you are the only one left in the Dai family, you must take better care of yourself. The spirits of aunt and eldest brother in heaven will bless you."

"Wuwuwu..." Dai Huabin finally took off his disguise and threw himself into Zhu Lu's arms in pain.

"Xiao Lu, Hua Bin is here too."

A voice interrupted Dai Huabin's crying.

Zhu Lu looked a little flustered. Not far in front of her was her own brother, the most outstanding young generation of the Zhu family, the Netherworld Spirit Cat.

Because not long ago, my brother wrote to me asking me to leave Dai Huabin. The Dai family had lost its investment value. A legitimate son who might not even survive in the future, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, which was an empty shell and had offended the Xingluo royal family and the people of the entire Xingluo imperial capital, had no value at all.

But she was conflicted and didn't reply. She didn't expect her brother to come to the school.

"Haha, I'm just chatting with Xiaolu. Are you okay, Huabin?" the young man said with a smile.

"Hmm..." Dai Huabin remained silent.

Watching the two figures walking out one after the other, he felt more and more uncomfortable. He was not a fool. Being in the big melting pot of the Duke's Mansion, he naturally knew how cold-hearted people were.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Just as Dai Huabin's eyes turned bloodshot and he clenched his fists tightly.

Tang San put his hands in his pockets and appeared in front of him leisurely.

"Are you... Tang San?" Dai Huabin asked suspiciously.

Although he didn't know what this guy wanted to do with him, his name was the same as that of Tang San's ancestor who lived ten thousand years ago, and it was said that they had twin martial souls. This coincidence made him, a descendant of Dai Mubai, one of the Shrek Seven Devils ten thousand years ago, feel a little strange.

Although this guy doesn't seem to have a good reputation in the academy...

"What's the matter with me?"

Dai Huabin's expression quickly turned cold.

"Haha, don't you think we are destined to be together?" Tang San seemed unaware of the repulsion emanating from Dai Huabin, and smiled as he stood aside.

"What do you want from me?" Dai Huabin asked coldly.

“Haha, I remember correctly. Ten thousand years ago, when Tang San’s ancestor and Dai Mubai first met, they also had a big fight.” Tang San grinned.

"What I mean is, I want to re-form the Shrek Seven Devils, the real Shrek Seven Devils!"

ps: I only have 4k today, I'll make up for it tomorrow... I can't make up for it anymore. (I owe three chapters)
