Douluo Continent: Contract with Gu Yuena, Start by Slaying Tang Shenwang

"What did we do wrong to deserve being kicked out of Shrek?"

Xian Lin'er collapsed to the ground, her eyes red as she questioned Yan Shaozhe.

At that moment, she felt nothing but utter absurdity.

Qian Duoduo was also somewhat out of control of his emotions and wanted to personally question the Sea God about why he treated them this way.

"Old Song's defeat has caused the Sea God to lose his disciple and has also greatly damaged the reputation of the Sea God and Shrek Academy. Someone must take responsibility for this."

"By openly disobeying his orders and staying here with Elder Song, you are openly embarrassing the Sea God. No wonder he is so angry and wants to expel you two from Shrek Academy."

Yan Shaozhe explained that he naturally did not approve of this, but the sea god's command was difficult to disobey.

"Haha, hahaha."

Xianlin'er laughed loudly, finding it utterly absurd.

"My mother lost, but does the Sea God understand why she lost?"

"If it weren't for the Sea God proposing this wager, my mother wouldn't be in this situation."

Xianlin'er roared, indignant on behalf of her mother.

Old Song lay on the ground, extremely weak, his eyes slightly red, feeling equally wronged.

Is it all his fault?

Yan Shaozhe remained silent, unsure how to respond.

He had his own judgment and knew that the fault did not lie with Old Song, but unfortunately, that was the Sea God.

"I don't want to discuss right and wrong anymore. We accept being expelled from Shrek Academy with Duo Duo and me."

"My only request now is that you, out of consideration for our past relationship, help me find some medicine to heal my mother."

"She destroyed her spirit ring, and her cultivation level is constantly dropping. It's freezing cold here, and if she doesn't receive timely treatment, her life may be in danger."

Xian Lin'er pleaded, feeling helpless despite her former strength.

She was powerful, but not a healing Soul Master. The simple healing medicines she carried were far from enough to cure her mother's injuries; only healing medicines made from top-grade rare and precious herbs could heal her.

She would also need a titled healing Soul Master, which she could find, but top-tier healing medicines could only be found in the Shrek Treasure Vault.

"this..."

Yan Shaozhe hesitated, then said in a low voice:

Personally, I would definitely be willing to help you.

"But this is not permitted by the sea god, and I am truly powerless to help. I'm sorry."

Tang San has clearly given the order that no Shrek Academy resources should be given to Elder Song and the others.

They even had someone pass on the message, telling others not to help them out of respect for Shrek, as they had no connection with Shrek anymore.

This is tantamount to banning them.

He dared not disobey this order.

He sympathized with Old Song and still cherished the past relationship with Xian Lin'er, but these feelings had varying degrees of importance, and he would weigh the pros and cons at this moment.

His inability to do anything was a rational choice.

"Poseidon is driving my mother to her death."

"My mother ended up in this situation because of him!"

Xianlin cried out, her emotions on the verge of collapse.

After a moment of silence, Yan Shaozhe felt too ashamed to face them any longer. He apologized and left.

Waaaaah—

Xianlin'er covered her face and wept bitterly, like a helpless little girl.

Qian Duoduo quickly comforted her, saying that he would definitely find a way to save his mother-in-law and would not watch her die from serious injuries.

...

Outside the Star Dou Great Forest, Jing Hongchen led nearly a hundred Soul Masters from the Hongchen Clan to this place.

He was still carrying Huo Yuhao, who looked utterly despondent, his expression blank, his breathing weak, as if he might die at any moment.

In fact, if Jing Hongchen hadn't channeled some soul power into him on the way to keep him alive, he would have already died.

"Grandpa, what are we doing here?"

"Are you planning to feed this villain who killed your brother to the soul beasts?"

Meng Hongchen, who was beside Jing Hongchen, asked softly. Her eyes were swollen from crying, and she was very listless, speaking weakly.

I guess so.

Jing Hongchen affectionately patted his granddaughter's head and glanced around.

He called out uncertainly, "Senior, are you nearby?"

The man seemed somewhat mysterious to him. Since he had been summoned to the Star Dou Great Forest to kill Huo Yuhao again, there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

Before taking action, he still wanted to meet that senior expert.

If I could befriend him, it might be a good opportunity for me.

Shortly after he finished speaking, the surrounding space distorted, and a group of people emerged.

The Soul Masters from the Hongchen Clan brought by Jing Hongchen immediately went on high alert and took out their Soul Guidance Devices.

"You all stay put."

After Jing Hongchen clearly saw who it was, he immediately spoke sternly to the soul master of the Hongchen family.

These people quickly put away their weapons and dared not do anything reckless.

Jing Hongchen looked at the newcomer with slight surprise, yet also with a sense of unease.

He had seen these people at the top of Tianshan Mountain, and it was some of them who expressed their support for him that enabled him to force Shrek Academy to hand over Huo Yuhao.

With eight levels of power, such a force should belong to a hidden world, so it's not surprising that there are highly skilled individuals among them who can guide me.

"Thank you all for supporting me atop Mount Tianshan, which allowed me to avenge my grandson. I, Jing Hongchen, owe you all a great debt of gratitude, and I will surely repay you in the future."

Jing Hongchen expressed his sincere gratitude.

Meng Hongchen, who was beside him, also bowed and expressed her gratitude, though she seemed a little scared.

"I just couldn't stand Shrek's shameless behavior. If you want to thank someone, thank my master."

Xiong Jundao felt extremely pleased to see Shrek suffer a setback.

"Your Excellency?"

Jing Hongchen followed Xiong Jun's gaze and looked at Bai Xuan.

Is this young man the esteemed one of these ultimate powerhouses?

What is so special about him that a group of top-tier experts would willingly call him "Your Excellency"?

"Thank you, sir. May I ask your name?"

Jing Hongchen asked politely.

Bai Xuan's words immediately startled Jing Hongchen, who exclaimed in surprise:

"You were actually the senior expert who helped me defeat my enemy atop Mount Tianshan?"

He thought that person was at least at the limit of cultivation, but he didn't expect that he was just a young soul master. No matter how strong he was, he probably hadn't reached the limit level.

"I believe in equal exchange and reciprocity. Since I've helped you, you should leave some of your soul tools behind as a reward."

Bai Xuan said that those soul tools were interesting and he wanted to study them.

He has a wide range of interests, including alchemy, formations, weapon crafting, and other arts of cultivation.

I'm happy to research and learn new things; it's always good to have more skills.

"That's how it should be."

Jing Hongchen was taken aback, but quickly agreed.

After thinking for a moment, he put half of his soul tools into a storage soul tool and handed it to Bai Xuan.

Among them are nine level-eight soul tools and six level-nine soul tools, with a total value of over 100 million.

In his view, the help the other party gave him was far more valuable than these soul tools.

The hand of a level nine Soul Master is worth hundreds of millions, not to mention that it helped him avenge his grandson. No amount of money is too much.

He also quickly explained the uses of these soul tools to Bai Xuan, showing great sincerity.
