Douluo Continent: Transmigrating to the Star Palace of Yuhao

Chapter 102: Everyone's an Outsider

A thousand years in an instant; the domain's effect lasts only a moment, but it makes the opponent feel an immeasurable length of time. Within that time, the Demon King can unleash countless techniques.

Even if the Demon King, already enraged, didn't intentionally try to kill, his next attack was definitely aimed at crippling his opponent!

Thousands of branches! Corrosive venom! Paralyzing tree eyes!

A barrage of attacks rained down as if they were free, and it looked like Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er were about to be hit!

Suddenly, a golden light descended, transforming into a solid barrier that protected the two of them!

The Demon King narrowed his eyes and looked over. A golden figure had appeared on the horizon at some point. It was none other than Mu En, the first person in charge of Shrek Academy, who had been visiting every day for the past few days.

Mu En, his body hunched over, coughed twice and said, "King of Ten Thousand Demons, let's leave this matter between the two of them here, shall we?"

Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er became extremely anxious and blurted out, "Teacher! Yuhao and Lexuan are still..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mu En immediately raised his hand and said sternly, "You have no right to speak here! Qian Duoduo, keep an eye on her! You two will each write a self-criticism when you get back!"

Xianlin'er's face immediately turned extremely ugly, but she couldn't talk back to Mu En; her words just now had already offended her teacher.

Qian Duoduo stepped forward and took her hand, gently shaking her head. They couldn't afford to act recklessly any longer; they'd have to see what Elder Mu thought first.

Having just finished reprimanding the other party, Mu En turned to the Demon King, his expression somewhat gloomy, and said, "After all, the two of them haven't done anything outrageous. I don't think the Star Dou Great Forest has any intention of starting a war with Shrek Academy, right?"

The Demon King nodded. He understood that the matter should end here, as both sides could accept it. There was no need to continue to press the issue. Since there was no news from their lord, it was not their place to make decisions on their own.

"That's settled then. We'll let those two children go home when it's their turn."

Mu En pondered for a moment, then said, "Just now, according to my junior, he wanted to see those two children, but I don't know..."

The Demon King sighed and made up an excuse, saying, "Di Tian took them away. We don't know what he's planning. Even if we want to see those two children, we'll have to wait until Di Tian comes back."

Mu En's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "Where did Di Tian take them?"

The Demon King subtly twitched the corner of his mouth. So, I just found a reason, and you seized the opportunity to try and trick me into talking?

"I already said, we don't know either. You'll have to wait for that guy to come back."

"But I just met Di Tian yesterday. Isn't your answer a bit too perfunctory?" Mu En was also starting to lose his temper.

If you're going to lie, at least give a perfectly plausible reason, right? How can you lie so blatantly?

The Demon King stopped in Bengbu, his face immediately darkening. "I'm giving you a way out, don't push your luck!"

"Moun! Don't push your luck!"

Mu En's anger was also starting to build up. He said with a stern face, "I want to see the person alive or dead! Don't tell me that's all the credibility your Star Dou Great Forest has to offer? If Di Tian hadn't assured me, I would have stormed into this ominous place of yours that very day."

The Demon King's face grew even more gloomy. So, I've become the scapegoat today? If I still can't persuade them to leave, then the master will punish me alone.

Just as the Demon King was full of complaints and trying to figure out a way to persuade the people to leave, a majestic voice rang out from the ominous place behind him.

"Moun, I, Di Tian, ​​assure you that we will return the person unharmed within one week!"

As he spoke, a dark figure tore through space and appeared. His cold and stern face was filled with endless majesty. His long black hair hung down his back, with two strands of golden hair hanging quietly in front of him, which were particularly eye-catching.

When Moon saw that the person in question had arrived, he composed himself and asked calmly, "I just want to know what you plan to do with those two children. Don't tell me I can't tell you that."

Di Tian was equally unyielding, "This matter involves the secrets of my clan, so naturally I cannot tell you. Even if they return later, this matter will never be passed on to you by them. Don't dream about it."

Di Tian's words were watertight, giving Mu En no chance to get any information out of him.

Of course, in reality, everyone here is an outsider.

Mu En knew that if the person was really dead, Di Tian and his group of ferocious beasts would not waste their breath making repeated promises to him. Since he had already received the promise, there was no need to continue to pester him.

As for the secrets involved, we'll talk about them when the children come back.

"Then..."

Just then, two figures flew over.

It turned out to be Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan, who had been missing for a long time.

The two were still holding hands. Zhang Lexuan struggled a little, but it was no use, so she simply let Huo Yuhao go.

When the two of them hurriedly flew over, everyone present, including the two ferocious beasts, fell into an endless silence.

All three Shrek members, including Mu En, noticed that Huo Yuhao and Zhang Lexuan were holding hands, and the entire room fell silent for a moment.

Di Tian and Wan Yao Wang had just managed to trick people away with a combination of deception and trickery when the two people involved suddenly appeared and slapped them in the face.

Zhang Lexuan's face was slightly flushed. She glared at Huo Yuhao fiercely, but didn't say anything or struggle. She just let him hold her hand and flew to the side, showing no intention of speaking.

Huo Yuhao, thick-skinned as ever, coughed lightly twice without batting an eye, panting, or blushing, and then said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you all, seniors and elders. Mom and Dad, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo didn't have much doubt about Huo Yuhao's words; they just looked at him with concern but didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Mu En didn't say anything, but just smiled and said, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."

Di Tian and the Demon King looked somewhat embarrassed, unsure of what to say.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao didn't put too much pressure on them. He then continued, "Le Xuan and I have been well taken care of by Senior Di Tian during this time, so please rest assured, we are perfectly fine. We have been cooperating with Senior Di Tian and his team on a small experiment, but there are no results yet, so we cannot go into details. Please go back and wait. Once we have the results, Le Xuan and I will naturally return."

Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo seemed to want to say something but hesitated, but it was clear that there was no place for them to talk in the current situation.

Mu En glanced at Di Tian and the Demon King's expressions without changing his expression, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He already had some guesses in his mind, but he still said to Huo Yuhao without changing his expression, "Well, that's good. We're relieved that you two are alright. I'll take your parents back first, and we can have a proper talk when you get back to the academy."

After saying this, he turned to Di Tian and the Demon King, nodded slightly, and then left with Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo.
