Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 260 Gu Yue is assassinated, the entire area is sealed off!
Following the individual competitions, the team finals will be held in the next few days.

To fully showcase their strength, the final stage of the team competition is not an elimination tournament like the individual competition, but a round-robin tournament.

However, with Shrek Academy's strength, they overcame all obstacles along the way.

Finally, in the final round.

A dazzling, starlight-infused giant sword crashed down, sweeping the struggling Long Yue off the stage.

"Shrek Academy, win!"

As the referee's voice rang out, cheers erupted from the crowd.

The giant starlight sword in mid-air slowly dissipated, transforming back into two slender figures, namely Ye Xinglan and Xu Xiaoyan.

"Yes! We won!"

Xu Xiaoyan jumped up excitedly and hugged Ye Xinglan's shoulder.

"Sister Xinglan, this is our exhilarating combination move!"

Long Yue sat on the ground, stunned, watching the Shrek Academy students enjoying the cheers, feeling a pang of sadness.

Shrek's overall strength is higher than that of Monster Academy. After his teammates were wiped out, no matter how strong he is, he can't hold the line alone.

"stand up!"

Enci suddenly appeared and snorted coldly at Long Yue.

It's okay to lose!
My disciple is exceptionally talented, but his journey has been too smooth, and he lacks the resilience of a true strongman.

"Teacher... I have let you down."

Long Yue sighed and stood up dejectedly.

He lost to Yuanen Yehui before because of the battle armor, but now he has lost again, and it wasn't even because of Jiang Yi.

This was the first time his proud heart had felt defeated; he didn't even have the right to see him.

"disappointment?"

Grace shook her head and said calmly,

"If you can't even handle a single defeat, that's true disappointment."

"After some time, come with me to travel the Douluo Continent. After we return, you should go into seclusion. Your journey is still long."

Long Yue clenched his fist, glanced at the Shrek Academy students, and then resolutely left with his teacher.

I will definitely be back!
……

"Phew! It's finally over!"

In the stands, Jiang Yi sat next to Ya Li and stretched.

With the team competition over, the three most anticipated events have come to an end, and the remaining competitions have received less attention.

Next, they were free to do as they pleased.

"Your lazy demeanor is starting to resemble that girl Na'er more and more."

Yali rolled her eyes at him.

Wu Changkong originally wanted Jiang Yi to replace Le Zhengyu on stage, but he refused.

He didn't play at all during the entire team competition, and was quite relaxed.

"I just trust them!"

Jiang Yi smiled, then stood up and waved to Ya Li.

"Godmother! I'm leaving now! Yue'er will be there soon."

After saying that, he disappeared instantly. His impatient manner made Ya Li smile.

This child... he's really forgotten his mother now that he has a wife!

……

Star City, Soul Guide Train Station.

As the Soul Master Competition nears its end, many visiting spectators have begun to return home.

The entire station was teeming with people and extremely crowded. Jiang Yi stood on the platform, waiting quietly.

Before long, accompanied by a long whistle, a streamlined Soul Guidance Train slowly pulled into the platform and came to a steady stop.

The car doors opened, and a flood of people poured out like a burst dam.

A group of people got off in one of the carriages, led by a black-haired girl.

"Yue'er!"

Jiang Yi's eyes lit up, and he waved.

Gu Yue looked up at the sound and saw Jiang Yi outside the crowd.

She whispered a few words to the few Spirit Pagoda staff members accompanying her, then broke away from the group and walked towards Jiang Yi.

"Why are you here? Is the match over?"

Gu Yue walked over and glanced at him.

This guy actually has some conscience; he actually came to pick me up at the station.

"No competition is as important as you, Yue'er!"

Jiang Yi blinked and naturally took Gu Yue's small hand.

Compared to Shrek's glory, going to Dragon Valley to see my father-in-law is more important.

If he could become the Dragon God's godfather, that would be truly incredible. Why bother betraying Tang San? Betraying the Dragon God would suffice. Just sell the Dragon God's information to Tang San once, to the Abyss once, to the Demon Emperor once... and he'd be on a meteoric rise.

"Hmph! It had better be that way."

Gu Yue rolled her eyes at him, but didn't break free, letting him lead her, though the corners of her mouth curled up almost imperceptibly.

However, the moment they stepped out of the station—!!!
A blurry black shadow emerged from the corner of the wall, carrying a chilling killing intent, and rushed straight towards Gu Yue!

It was a figure shrouded in a black robe, holding a dark blue dagger, poised to slash at Gu Yue's throat.

assassin?

Jiang Yi realized what was happening and was about to make a move when a slight ripple suddenly appeared in the space in front of him.

These ripples stretched and condensed rapidly, transforming into a silver-white thread that stretched across the air, stopping precisely in front of the black-clad assassin's neck.

The assassin was clearly a master, but the silver thread appeared too strangely, and he didn't react in time, crashing straight into it.

The silver thread pierced the neck, instantly separating the body from its head.

"Pfft!"

The headless corpse collapsed to the ground, and blood gushed out, quickly spreading a glaring crimson across the ground.

"Killing! Killing!"

After a brief silence, pedestrians screamed in panic and scattered in all directions, and the station alarm sounded instantly.

Several armed guards surrounded the area.

"Moon, be careful!"

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow and pulled Gu Yue behind him.

Your Majesty... Bah, Gu Yue has been assassinated. Lock down the entire area!

"How dare you attack a key member of my Spirit Pagoda!"

A dignified-looking middle-aged man descended from the sky, landing in front of Gu Yue and shielding the two of them behind him, separating them from the crowd.

Zhang Geyang glanced at the headless corpse on the ground and roared angrily.

"Who dares to hide like this! Don't let me find out, or this will be your fate!"

After saying that, he snorted coldly, raised his hand and pressed down in mid-air, turning the corpse into ashes.

"Miss Gu Yue, you've been frightened! It was my fault for not making proper arrangements, please forgive me!"

After cleaning up the scene, Zhang Geyang turned around to look at Gu Yue, his face showing some apology.

"It's alright, Master Zhang, you flatter me."

Gu Yue peeked out slightly from behind Jiang Yi and nodded faintly.

Upon arriving in Xingluo City, they pulled this stunt on her. Was it a show of force or a threat?

"It's good that Miss Gu Yue is alright. I'll send someone to handle things here. Please come with me, Miss Gu Yue; headquarters has prepared accommodations for you."

Zhang Geyang smiled, not paying any attention to Gu Yue's attitude.

"No need!"

Gu Yue refused without hesitation, then took Jiang Yi's hand and got into a car parked on the street.

Zhang Geyang's smile froze as he watched the two get into the car.

Only when the Soul Guided Car merged into the traffic did the apology and enthusiasm in his eyes quickly fade, replaced by a deep gloom.

"Hmph, little brat, quite the airs..."

Zhang Geyang snorted coldly, but his brows furrowed slightly.

This little girl actually has a master by her side; he didn't even notice when that person made a move just now.

……

On the other side, in a taxi.

Jiang Yi and Gu Yue sat side by side in the back seat, while a handsome man in black drove.

"Uncle Tian?"

Jiang Yi looked at the man in the driver's seat and called out softly.

Sure enough, it was Di Tian who made the move.

"Ok!"

Di Tian nodded slightly, then turned to Gu Yue and reported.

"Miss, that person was instructed by Zhang Geyang..."

He came to Xingluo City ahead of time, partly to secretly protect Jiang Yi, and partly to follow his master's orders and observe Zhang Geyang's reaction.

"Find an opportunity to deal with it."

Gu Yue said in a cold voice.

She came to the Star Luo Continent with a mission: to win over the Spirit Pagoda branch on behalf of her teacher.

Along the way, she managed to sway quite a few people to side with Leng Yaozhu.

This also aligns with her interests; the higher the teacher's status in the Spirit Pagoda, the smoother her plans will go.

"Yes, ma'am."
