Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 472: Has something happened to Liu Yun?

Back when the three of them were outwitting and outmaneuvering that old Deng... cough cough, former emperor Xueye, they put in a lot of effort.

Now that my disciples have grown up and become towering trees, they are able to help us old folks who are about to enter the grave to go even further. It is truly gratifying.

Bai Baoshan and Zhilin exchanged another glance, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "Then we'll accept it without hesitation!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feilian waved his hands repeatedly.

"Please, teachers, don't say such things..."

Shamelessly accept it?

She received so many favors back then, how should we account for them?

Doesn't it seem too distant for a master and disciple to say such things?

"Sigh, old people just get sentimental. Look at the mess you've made!"

Meng Shenji pointed at Bai Baoshan and Zhilin, and said irritably, "Do you expect Chiyu to say what would happen without us old guys?"

"Without us, she might have grown even faster?"

Xiao Feilian: "..."

Bai Baoshan, Zhilin: "0.o"

Don't tell me, really don't tell me!

Shrek Academy and his group had already left Heaven Dou City, and almost all the students had been dismissed.

Jiang Zhu, Liu Erlong's direct disciple, is now a teacher at Shrek Academy. However, unlike the other hired teachers, she did not leave but stayed.

"teacher……"

"Dean..."

Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai earnestly advised, "Please come with us to the Star Luo Empire. The Heaven Dou Royal Family doesn't value Shrek Academy, but the Star Luo Empire is different!"

At this point, Ma Hongjun paused, then continued, "With Boss Dai around, we'll definitely enjoy the best resources over there!"

Upon hearing this, the group of old men, including Liu Erlong, all fell silent.

After a long pause, Flander sighed, "Alas...we're getting old."

In a single day, I experienced both great joy and sorrow, and the ups and downs of life...

The entire Shrek crew seemed to have aged many years.

"Dean..."

Dai Mubai hesitated, then looked at Flander.

Before Dai Mubai could finish speaking, Flander waved his hand and said, "Hongjun, Mubai, we've already discussed it. We'll find a small village to live in seclusion and no longer concern ourselves with anything in the Soul Master world."

"We are exhausted, both physically and mentally. It's time to rest."

Everyone nodded. In fact, they had had this idea for a long time, but they had always held onto that sliver of hope.

Now, hope has been shattered.

Of course, they didn't blame Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai for being incompetent; the two young men had already tried their best.

Only they know how much hardship they endured to achieve what they have today.

If this calamity is destined to befall you and you cannot avoid it, then take the initiative to leave.

A peaceful life is quite nice.

Upon seeing this, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun trembled, but said nothing.

They knew that once these old guys made up their minds, no amount of persuasion could change their minds.

"Dean, there is one million gold soul coins here. Even if you live in seclusion, you still need daily necessities. This is the only thing I, Dai Mubai, can do for you. Please accept it!"

Dai Mubai took a deep breath, took out a gold card from his storage soul tool, handed it to Flander, and said solemnly.

One million gold soul coins is no small sum; it's enough to forge a hundred sets of Royal Knight equipment.

As long as they don't gamble or purchase large amounts of cultivation resources, this money is enough to support everyone in their old age and provide for them in their final days!

Flanders and the others chuckled at this.

Their lives were a mix of good and bad, with both merits and demerits; they were masters of deception and fraud.

To meet the needs of the academy, they ripped off the children's enrollment fees; but to ensure the students had a future, they abandoned the investment.

Good people and bad people are for others to judge.

"The academy never accepted any investment before, but now that the academy is gone, I will accept whatever the students offer as a token of their respect."

Flander did not refuse Dai Mubai's kindness and accepted the gold card.

He did not regret taking in Dai Mubai, the troublemaker, into the advanced academy. He had never regretted it before, and he still does not regret it now.

This child has the potential to become a god, but he has gone astray. Perhaps this is his trial before he becomes a god!

As if he had thought of something, Flander continued, "By the way, don't even think about avenging the academy in the future. Xiao Feilian has already shown us immense mercy by letting us go today."

"She's so smart, how could she not know about your scheme?"

"She was just too kind and unwilling to go on a killing spree."

Flander's words struck them like a thunderbolt, leaving them bewildered. Upon reflection, however, they found them to be quite reasonable, and for a moment, neither of them could utter a word.

Especially Dai Mubai, he had really become withdrawn before. He thought that the gap between him and Xiao Feilian had been smoothed out or even surpassed by the divine inheritance. He never expected that the gap would only get bigger and bigger!

After a moment, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun exchanged a glance before nodding and saying, "Okay, teacher (dean), we understand."

"Although I'm angry, I acknowledge her abilities and character."

Dai Mubai said solemnly, "I lost. I will not target her again."

This time, he was completely convinced.

Flander sighed, then suddenly seemed to remember something. He patted the two on the shoulders and said, "Mu Bai, Hong Jun, you both have the potential to become gods. Judging from your previous performances, Xiao Feilian should be a bit stronger than you, right?"

"..."

"Yeah, that's pretty impressive!"

Ma Hongjun said with a conflicted expression.

"Let go of this hatred. Besides, you don't actually have any direct hatred for each other."

"If possible, seek refuge with her and assist her. When you reach the place where God resides, your status will be higher, and you will have a powerful backer."

Flanders was incredibly cunning, and his intelligence was certainly not low.

His guidance to Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai on their future paths can be considered Shrek Academy's final lesson.

"No, absolutely impossible!"

"I may acknowledge their abilities, but I'll never defect!"

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, however, did not listen to Flander this time; they also wanted to save face.

Seek refuge with Xiao Feilian?

This is worse than them dying!

Upon seeing this, Flanders' mouth gaped slightly, and he remained silent for a long time.

After a long pause, he sighed.

"Sigh, you guys are still so stubborn..."

"We're leaving. You two should cultivate diligently and strive to become gods as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Dean (Teacher)!"

The two nodded and respectfully watched Flanders and the others leave.

Beyond the edge of the frozen forest lies the far north.

Zhong Li and the others were about to step into this world of ice and snow when suddenly, Zhong Li seemed to sense something and stopped in his tracks.

"Morax, what's wrong?"

"Liu Yun is back, and she seems a little anxious..."

"That girl is always so energetic, could it be that you're just imagining things?"

"There's probably no mistake, she's traveling at almost full speed."

"Let's go back first, we can come back for another trip later."
