Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 379 "Returning intact is your sin"

Qian Renxue looked at Ling Luochen. This person was not restrained, and there were no ropes or anything on her body. She was just sitting there.

"Where did you catch this?" Qian Renxue asked Ye Xishui with a strange expression.

"It's quite a coincidence that I ran into this girl when I arrived in Wangjiang City," Ye Xishui said. "I've seen her before and recognize her aura, so her disguise was useless."

Qian Renxue gave Ling Luochen a strange look. This girl was really unlucky. She knew that Shrek Academy knew how to use disguise, but she didn't expect to run into Ye Xishui directly.

"I haven't reached the point where I'd directly attack the Little Soul King," Ye Xishui said helplessly. "Instead, I followed her into the city and came to this hotel to see what she was up to. Then, for some reason, this girl hasn't made any contact with anyone here and just sits here in a daze all day long."

"Then, yesterday she suddenly took the initiative to find the Martial Soul Prince and said..." Ye Xishui said strangely, "that she wanted to surrender."

Qian Renxue's expression also turned strange: "Does this girl have some deep-seated hatred for Shrek Academy?"

Ling Luochen felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Qian Renxue's words.

Because her actions were tantamount to betraying Shrek Academy, and it's said that people who do this, even if they join an opposing force, will not have a good ending.

"Let her tell you herself," Ye Xishui nodded to Ling Luochen.

"You are, the Sun Goddess, right?" Ling Luochen looked at Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue nodded: "You can also call me the Demon Saintess."

"..." Ling Luochen was taken aback, but she didn't pay much attention to it and continued, "You must be very curious as to why I did this. It's because I'm disappointed with Shrek Academy."

Her voice was low: "You also participated in the Soul Master Competition in Star Luo City, so you should be very familiar with our situation."

Then, she told Qian Renxue about her experiences at Shrek Academy. For example, at the beginning, as a Soul Master with an Ice Attribute Martial Soul, she had to help Captain Ma Xiaotao suppress the Evil Fire. However, Ma Xiaotao's Martial Soul became stronger and stronger, and sometimes she couldn't keep up. Then Ma Xiaotao found other people willing to help, and the academy's higher-ups were actually very dissatisfied with her behavior.

The reason is that Ma Xiaotao is the future dean of the Martial Soul Department. It is necessary for her to make some sacrifices for the future of Shrek Academy, and she will be compensated.

However, suppressing evil fire is always a two-way street. Only someone with an ultimate ice martial soul could ensure they remain unaffected. This is one of the reasons why, despite possessing the unique ice element martial soul, she hasn't reached the Soul Emperor level.

Then Huo Yuhao appeared, possessing twin martial souls and the ultimate ice martial soul, and she was immediately neglected. However, she didn't complain about this at first, since talent is something that can't be controlled, and Huo Yuhao's potential was simply stronger than hers.

However, what she could not accept was that in Star Luo City, when faced with the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone, Teacher Wang Yan of Shrek Academy immediately chose to allocate the soul bone to Huo Yuhao without saying a word, even before he had bought it.

Then, in order to ensure the honor of the trainees, Ling Luochen was forced to go on stage before her injuries had fully recovered, which caused her injuries to worsen further, and she still has hidden injuries to this day.

Later, Shrek Academy openly committed murder during the competition. Although this was within the rules, she still felt it shouldn't have been done.

Even after Shrek Academy achieved a commendable second place and returned to the academy, what happened next became the final straw that made her want to leave. Four of the original Seven Monsters who participated in the competition were killed or wounded during the bandit suppression, leaving the team incomplete. However, due to a decision made at the Sea God Pavilion meeting, no reinforcements were sent, and they were allowed to continue fighting.

As a result, of the remaining three of the Seven Eccentrics, Dai Yueheng died in battle, Ma Xiaotao turned to the dark side, and only she returned seemingly intact.

Immediately, the entire academy, from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard, from students to teachers, felt that Ling Luochen should not have returned intact; she should have given her all like Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng!

Ling Luochen hurriedly explained that her appearance was all arranged by Wang Yan.

However, in order to keep Xuanzi's promise to let him enter the Scripture Pavilion, Wang Yan said that it was because Ling Luochen had shown resistance. He was worried that Ling Luochen would not do her best to influence the battle after she went on stage. Therefore, after the final individual battle, the 2-2-3 strategy did not let her go on stage, but instead chose Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong and Ma Xiaotao.

Poseidon Pavilion had no objection to this, because having come in second place, they definitely needed someone to take the blame.

Ling Luochen, the only one of the Seven Eccentrics still alive, naturally became the candidate.

Furthermore, the Sea God Pavilion, citing insufficient effort, kicked out Jiang Nannan and Xu Sanshi, two minor monsters who had not suffered any fatal injuries.

Bei Bei was left to investigate in the outer courtyard due to her lack of skill. Only Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao, whose martial souls had been shattered, Wang Dong, whose spiritual sea had been injured, and He Caitou, a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, were kept behind. After all, Mu En had proclaimed before his death that he would vigorously develop the Soul Guidance Department, and this legacy and face had to be respected.

"Who are the Seven Little Monsters now?" Qian Renxue asked. "Do you know?"

"Dai Huabin, He Caitou, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, ​​Zhu Lu," Ling Luochen said.

Just as Qian Renxue had guessed, she nodded: "Then, why are you here?"

Ling Luochen said, "I was stripped of my status as one of the Shrek Seven Devils, and then because of the issues raised in the academy, the Sea God Pavilion wanted to get rid of me, this scourge, so they gave me an early graduation assessment. The content of the assessment was..."

"In order to carry forward the spirit of Shrek Academy and save the innocent people of Star Luo, the Sea God Pavilion has decided to send you as a missionary to sneak into the four cities of the Sun Moon Empire that are sheltering the people, as an undercover agent, and wait for an opportunity to revolt." A look of desolation appeared on Ling Luochen's face.

"This is forcing you to your death," Qian Renxue said with interest. "Who gave this order?"

"He's a powerful figure who suddenly appeared in the Sea God Pavilion. I don't know his exact background, I only know that he's a..." Ling Luochen thought for a moment, "...a middle-aged man with a stubble beard who isn't very tidy."

"This is Tang Hao. Now that Mu En is dead, this guy might just be the highest leader of Shrek Academy now," Qian Renxue thought to herself.

"Then what was your motive for surrendering?"

"The defeat in the competition did not break my fighting spirit and belief, but my classmates and teachers did." Ling Luochen shook her head. "I really don't know what I did wrong, but I feel my own insignificance and powerlessness."

"Furthermore, I think that the Sun Moon Empire and the Sun Temple were able to win the championship and even take in refugee civilians, so they are probably not like the Sea God Pavilion said, 'Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts.'"

"On the contrary, on my way here I overheard people from the Sun Moon Empire talking about how countless civilians of the Sun Moon Empire were killed by Dai Hao in past wars. If it weren't for the strong control from above, these cities would probably be dead cities by now."
