Douluo Continent: Little Huo Niang Taken Away by Di Tian

In the early morning in Shrek City, the mist had not yet dissipated, and the air, carrying the fresh scent of grass and trees, was invigorating.

Outside Shrek City, Moon was resting with his eyes closed, enjoying the fresh air and feeling quite relaxed.

However, Xuanzi standing next to him looked miserable. In order to participate in the "Longevity Training Plan", he had really lost a lot of weight these days!

That's several ounces of meat!

Those few ounces of meat seemed to carry a soul, causing him excruciating pain every time he thought of them.

Not only did Moon take a stroll around Shrek City every morning, but in the spirit of "sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone," he also forcibly dragged along a group of elders led by Xuanzi.

At this moment, Di Tian and his group, who were standing on the gate tower of Shrek City, looked down at the group of figures below who were usually so imposing but were now running wildly on the road. A rare look of astonishment and silence flashed in Di Tian's eyes.

Mu En, who was running right behind Xuan Zi and using his soul power to urge him on, keenly sensed Di Tian's aura.

"May I ask what brings you here, sir?" Mu En concealed his aura, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Di Tian, ​​asking in a low voice.

"I've come to discuss a deal with you," Di Tian said in a deep voice.

Before arriving, Di Qiu had already consumed the "shrinking pill" that Bi Ji had specially made for her. At this moment, she was only the size of a kitten, obediently perched on Di Tian's shoulder, blinking her big eyes curiously as she looked around.

"Let's go inside and talk."

Just as Mu En gave a greeting and prepared to lead the guests inside, the commotion behind him once again broke the tranquility of the morning.

Qian Duoduo, Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, Xian Liner, and the four deans of Shrek Academy's Martial Soul Department and Soul Guidance Department were performing a real-life version of "Jenching" in an extremely ungraceful manner.

It turned out that Qian Duoduo had sharp eyes. When she saw Mu En leave, she followed his gaze and happened to see Di Tian and his group stop in their tracks in shock.

In the moment he was stunned, Yan Shaozhe behind him couldn't dodge in time and bumped headfirst into Qian Duoduo's back.

The two women immediately stumbled and fell in the middle of the road. Cai Meier and Xian Liner, who were following behind, had no way to avoid them and were tripped by the two "human flesh balls" and fell into a heap.

Moon: "..."

Faced with this chaotic scene, Moon's temple throbbed, but he ultimately chose to magnanimously turn a blind eye.

He coughed lightly, regaining his composure as the master of the Sea God Pavilion: "Gentlemen, please follow me to the Sea God Pavilion for further discussion."

"We were unaware of your presence and have failed to greet you properly." Xian Lin'er, Cai Mei'er, and Qian Duoduo, who had fallen to the ground, reacted quickly, sprang to their feet, and apologized in unison, though their clothes were somewhat disheveled.

Yan Shaozhe, however, was clearly still stunned by the impact and was a beat behind.

"May I ask who you are?" Yan Shaozhe rubbed his nose, his mind filled with doubt. Who is this? Why are Elder Mu and Elder Qian looking at him with such serious eyes?

"Emperor Tian".

"Beauty".

"Purple Princess".

"I am Di Qiu."

After Di Tian briefly introduced himself, Bi Ji and Zi Ji stopped pretending and stopped bothering to maintain their facade.

At this, Yan Shaozhe, Qian Duoduo, Xian Lin'er, and Cai Mei'er all gasped in shock, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

You mean, Shrek Academy has been hiding two of the Ten Great Beasts as teachers all along?

And we even hold meetings and discussions together frequently!

We, a group of Title Douluos, couldn't even spot this small flaw?!

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, the rustic aroma of wood mingles with the fragrance of tea.

Yan Shaozhe held his breath and personally poured tea for Mu En and Di Tian's group.

"Thank you, Dean Yan." Biji and Ziji nodded slightly, their manners elegant.

"Thank you, Dean Yan." Huo Yutong, standing next to the phantom of Electrolux, accepted the teacup with both hands and thanked him politely.

"In my current state, I am not fit to drink this mortal tea." Electrox's voice rang out softly, but before he finished speaking, the tea in Yan Shaozhe's hand had already filled the empty cup.

Electrolux's phantom paused, but did not touch the teacup, only glancing at it indifferently.

Yan Shaozhe gave an awkward smile and had no choice but to remove the cup of tea.

After pouring the tea, Yan Shaozhe stood respectfully to Mu En's left, while Xian Lin'er stood upright to his right.

For a moment, the pavilion was quiet and still, with only the wisps of tea smoke rising from it.

"Biji, bring it out," Di Tian said.

With a gentle wave of her hand, Biji took out several jade boxes from her storage soul tool.

As the lids were opened one by one, the room was instantly filled with rosy light and a wonderful fragrance.

Those were the leaves of the immortal herb shimmering with light, and the roots breathing in and out spiritual energy.

Mu En, Yan Shaozhe, and Xian Lin'er felt their breath catch in their throats and their hearts tremble—such a quantity and quality of rare and precious materials was considered extravagant even for Shrek Academy, which possessed endless resources!

"What do you wish to exchange this for?" Moon asked in a deep voice.

"Half a golden tree," Di Tian said bluntly. "We will not damage its roots, but only take a few branches."

Brigitte added softly, "I can help your esteemed institution refine these rare and precious herbs into pills, making the medicinal power purer and easier to absorb."

Zi Ji said, "Besides, I can also take care of the Shrek Academy team members after the tournament ends."

Mu En pondered for a moment, a decisive glint in his eyes: "...Alright. Please wait a moment, I will go and fetch something."

However, a moment later, Mu En returned, carrying an ancient jade box in his hand.

He placed the jade box on the table in front of Di Tian and slowly pushed open the lid.

In an instant, a pure dragon's might spread out, and inside the box lay a golden dragon pill the size of a dragon's eye, with dragon patterns faintly visible on it, exuding a powerful vitality.

"This was a fortuitous encounter I had during my travels in my youth. A hundred years ago, I was severely injured in a battle with Poisonous Death and was on the verge of death. It was thanks to this Dragon Pill that I was able to break through my limitations and achieve the position of Limit Douluo."

Mu En's gaze was deep as he swept over Huo Yutong beside him and slowly said, "I originally intended to give it to Yutong when she was trying to break through to the title level, to help her condense her soul core and even achieve a dual soul core that complements Yin and Yang."

"Now that a senior is here, given the friendship between the senior and Yu Tong, we will be able to better activate the power of this pill and protect her."

"Teacher..." Huo Yutong's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled slightly.

Di Tian suddenly said, "Mu En, I'll be frank. Are you a dragon? How dare you consume a dragon pill? It's a miracle you didn't explode and die back then!"

For dragons, the Dragon Core is more important than the heart, containing their very essence. It can usually only be inherited by direct bloodlines, and it leaves behind a bloodline constraint.

This elixir has no owner; its original owner must have passed away suddenly without having time to set a limit.

"And you just happened to share the same elemental affinity, and being in such a precious place as the Golden Tree, you were fortunate enough to succeed."

Upon hearing this, Moon gave a few bitter laughs: "Back then, it was indeed a desperate gamble, extremely risky."

"If you want to live a little longer, then you should never again use power beyond your limits so easily." Di Tian's tone softened.

Mu En shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I will follow my own path."

Electrolux suddenly interjected slowly, "Moun, I have a plan. You only need to sign a contract with me, and your soul will continue to exist, free to do as you please, far better than being dependent on plants."

"Old Master Yi?!" Huo Yutong exclaimed in surprise.

Mu Enqian chuckled twice and waved his hand: "I am grateful for your kindness, senior, but I have decided to dedicate my remaining soul to the Golden Tree after my death to protect the peace of the academy."

"Good." Electrox's eyes flashed, and he acted swiftly. "In that case, the contract shall be established as follows—half of the authority of the Golden Tree shall belong to the Soul Beast and the Spirit Pagoda."

As soon as the words fell, the three forces resonated, and an ancient contract, woven from soul power, spiritual power, and the laws of life and death, instantly took shape, shining brightly.
