Douluo Continent: I Moved the Entire Dragon King.

He looked Mu En up and down, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Your body..."

"No way."

Moon spoke casually, his old face revealing no emotion.

"He won't live much longer, at most... a few months."

Long Xiaoyao's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Is there no other way?"

"no."

Moon shook his head.

"Fate has run its course; it cannot be forced."

Long Xiaoyao remained silent for a long time.

The rooftop was quiet.

The moonlight shone on the two of them, casting their shadows long and thin.

Finally, Long Xiaoyao spoke.

"Then why did you lead me here?"

Mu En raised his head and looked at Long Xiaoyao, a glimmer of clarity flashing in his murky eyes.

"Xiaoyao, I have a request."

Chapter 273 Born a Shrek Academy student, die a Shrek Academy ghost.

Long Xiaoyao looked at Mu En in the wheelchair, waiting for him to continue.

Moon didn't speak immediately. He slowly reached out and took out a small object from his soul tool.

The object was small, only about the size of a cherry, perfectly round, and radiating a faint golden light.

The light was soft and not dazzling, yet it carried a refreshing and pleasant aura.

Long Xiaoyao's pupils narrowed slightly.

He could sense that the tiny bead contained an extremely pure and powerful energy.

That energy caused a slight tremor in his Dark Holy Dragon Martial Soul.

"This is..."

Long Xiaoyao's brows furrowed slightly.

"Dragon Pill".

Moon spoke, his voice soft and lacking strength.

"Dragon Pill?"

"That's right."

Moon nodded, his gaze falling on the golden bead, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"I discovered this by chance in an ancient site years ago."

"That was the corpse of a giant dragon of the Light element. It had been dead for countless years, and the body had decayed, leaving only a dragon core."

"This Dragon Pill is formed from the essence of that giant dragon, containing extremely vast energy."

Moon's gaze remained fixed on the dragon pill in front of him before he slowly opened his mouth.

"When I obtained it, its power was extremely domineering, and ordinary soul masters could hardly withstand it. Even I was damaged because of this thing. However... fortunately, I kept it in my body and nurtured this dragon core for hundreds of years, finally smoothing out its rough edges and making it gentle."

After hearing these words, Long Xiaoyao fell silent, but soon spoke again.

"So, you lured me here for this Dragon Pill?"

“That’s right, Xiaoyao. I hope you can do me a favor.”

He raised his head and looked at Long Xiaoyao, a glimmer of clarity flashing in his murky eyes.

"At the right time..."

Mu En handed the Dragon Pill to Long Xiaoyao.

"Give this Dragon Pill to Beibei."

Long Xiaoyao was slightly taken aback.

"Beibei?"

“My great-grandson.”

A faint smile appeared on Moon's lips.

"He's also the one I've chosen, the future leader of Shrek Academy."

"This child is talented and kind-hearted, but..."

He paused, his tone now tinged with concern.

"It's just that their strength is a bit weak."

"He didn't inherit my Holy Dragon Martial Soul, nor my talent, so his cultivation speed is far slower than mine was back then."

"But he worked very hard, harder than anyone else."

"But... in this world, hard work alone is not enough."

Moon's voice grew softer and softer.

"So, I want to give him this Dragon Pill."

"The power of the Dragon Pill can purify his body, enhance his bloodline, and strengthen his bones."

"After the body is strengthened, even if I break through to the level of a Limit Douluo, I won't be afraid of being unable to withstand the power."

"This is the last thing I, as his great-grandfather, can do, and it is also the most suitable successor I, as the head of the Sea God Pavilion at Shrek Academy, have chosen."

When Mu En said these words, Long Xiaoyao listened very quietly without interrupting him. From Mu En's words, Long Xiaoyao did not hear the slightest resentment, nor did he vent his dissatisfaction from back then.

Long Xiaoyao did not ask Mu En why he trusted him so much and was not afraid that he would kill people to steal the treasure. Mu En was indeed stronger than him in the past, but now Mu En was old and frail and his physical functions were not as good as before.

If you want to, it's just a matter of paying a higher price.

However... Long Xiaoyao ultimately did not choose to take action, just as Mu En trusted him and he would not lay a hand on Mu En.

Long Xiaoyao reached out and solemnly accepted the Dragon Pill.

Golden light danced slightly in his palm, as if responding to his touch.

"it is good."

Long Xiaoyao nodded and put the Dragon Pill into his soul tool.

"I will give it to Beibei at the appropriate time."

Thank you.

Moon let out a long breath, as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

……

"Any other arrangements?"

Long Xiaoyao asked.

Moon shook his head.

"That's all."

"It's enough that you can help me with this."

Long Xiaoyao looked at him silently without saying a word, a complex emotion welling up in his heart.

He had assumed that Moon had brought him here to ask him to take care of Shrek Academy.

After all, in his entire life, apart from the bond between the three of them, what Moon valued most was the honor of Shrek Academy.

Back then, Moon was willing to risk his life for Shrek Academy.

Now that he is about to pass away, isn't he worried about the future of Shrek Academy?

But Moon didn't. He didn't ask Long Xiaoyao to take care of Shrek Academy, or even mention it once.

He entrusted only the future of his great-grandson.

Long Xiaoyao took a deep breath and slowly nodded.

"I understand."

He paused for a moment, then added.

"Brother Mu, take care."

Moon smiled.

Take care of yourself too.

……

Long Xiaoyao turned around, took a light step, and rose into the air. The silver moonlight shone on him, casting a long shadow. He didn't look back, but simply floated quietly in mid-air before transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the night.

Long Xiaoyao knew that the Dragon Pill was originally something inside Mu En's body. Mu En had spent a hundred years nurturing the Dragon Pill, and the Dragon Pill also gave Mu En feedback, maintaining Mu En's life.

Now that the Dragon Pill is in his hands, Mu En's remaining lifespan is probably less than the few months he initially said.

On the rooftop, only Mu En remained. The moonlight was still bright, and the night was still cold.

Mu En sat in his wheelchair, gazing in the direction where Long Xiaoyao had disappeared, and remained silent for a long time.

It wasn't that he didn't want to ask Long Xiaoyao to take care of Shrek Academy.

Rather...it is not possible.

Their positions differ, and if he interferes in Shrek Academy's affairs, it will only complicate matters further.

At that time, not only will Shrek Academy be in a state of panic, but the forces outside that have been eyeing Shrek Academy will also take advantage of the situation.

Perhaps... even one or two things he originally wanted to accomplish will fall through because of this.

Mu En shook his head and gave a wry smile.

He thought of Xuanzi, and the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

Each and every one of them was giving him a headache.

"That's it..."

He murmured to himself.

"Let's leave it at that."

Moon drove the wheelchair and slowly descended from the roof.

The wheelchair landed on the corridor floor with a soft thud.

He pushed open the door and returned to his hospital room.

The ward was brightly lit.

Xuanzi was sitting on a chair to the side when he saw Mu En come in, and he quickly stood up.

"Old Master Mu, have you gone out?"

His voice carried a hint of concern.

"Ah."

Moon nodded without saying anything more.

He drove the wheelchair back to the bed and slowly lay down.

Xuanzi looked at him, opened his mouth as if to ask something, but didn't know whether he should ask or not.

Finally, he couldn't help but speak up.
