Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor.

Chapter 157 Qiankun Asks About Love Valley, About to Backstab Lao Mu

"That place... is very strange." Ye Qing was silent for a while, his eyes filled with confusion and contemplation, as if he was recalling the scene he had seen before.

"It was a special alternate dimension. I could feel that I had left Douluo Continent and entered a place that was like a small world. There were clouds and mists that could isolate spiritual power everywhere, and plants that I had never seen before grew everywhere."

"More importantly, at the very center of the alternate dimension, there is a lake that is both gold and silver. The water in the lake is clearly clear, but I can't see what's at the bottom of the lake. What I see is Le Xuan's face instead."

The more Ye Qing spoke, the more solemn Mu En's expression became.

He had also accidentally entered another dimension before, but the other dimension he entered was extremely dilapidated, barren of everything, and contained no other life, only a skeleton tens of meters long.

Dragon skeleton.

The dragon pill he obtained came from an ancient ruin in a small world. After he took the dragon pill out of the ruin, that alternate dimension collapsed.

Mu En's past experience told him that alternate dimensions exist, as do ancient ruins. Since Ye Qing could describe the scenery of an alternate dimension so clearly, it proved that he had indeed been to such a place.

However, he did not interrupt Ye Qing, but listened silently, trying to find information about this alternate dimension from Ye Qing's description.

"When I saw Le Xuan's face through the lake, I knew this place was definitely eerie, because I left the academy alone, and Le Xuan had no idea that I went to the Sun Moon Empire, yet I clearly saw Le Xuan's face here." As he said this, Ye Qing's expression became somewhat uncertain, and even carried a hint of lingering fear.

"How to Become a Movie Emperor" - by Lao Ye.

"My first thought was that I shouldn't stay here any longer, so I ran at full speed in the direction I came from. But the clouds that could block spiritual energy made me lose my way. Even though I felt like I was always keeping a straight line, I was actually just going around in circles in one place."

"Just when I was about to despair, a voice that I couldn't tell was male or female rang in my mind. It asked me: Do you have a lover? Since I had already established a relationship with Le Xuan, I naturally gave an affirmative answer. The owner of that voice seemed to have acknowledged my feelings for Le Xuan in some way. In the end, not only did it send me away from that place, but it also gave me two immortal herbs."

Then Ye Qing handed the jade box containing the eight-petaled fairy orchid to Mu En: "One of them is the eight-petaled fairy orchid in this jade box. As for the other one, I have already consumed it. It is the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum that Dai Mubai, the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils War God, consumed."

Having read the original story, it would be incredibly easy for Ye Qing to fabricate an experience of entering the Valley of Love and Destiny.

Qiankun Wenqing Valley is the perfect cover for Ye Qing, because there really are immortal herbs in Qiankun Wenqing Valley!

At least Moon has already truly believed it.

Ye Qing described it so vividly, and there was an eight-petaled fairy orchid right in front of him, how could he not believe it?

"Teacher, is there any other question?" Ye Qing blinked.

Moon shook his head.

"Then I'll go find Le Xuan. I haven't seen her for more than half a year and I miss her terribly. It's all that awful place's fault, it's made me almost lovesick." Ye Qing chuckled and darted out of the window on the third floor of the Sea God Pavilion.

They didn't even take the jade box containing the eight-petaled orchid with them.

Mu En raised his hand, intending to call Ye Qing back and take the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid with him to give to Zhang Lexuan.

After all, both the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum that Ye Qing had already consumed and this Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid were obtained by him from that strange little world, and the process of obtaining these two immortal herbs was actually a problem.

Do you have a lover?

Does that mean that these two immortal herbs are for Ye Qing and Zhang Lexuan, this couple?

But recalling some records about the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid in the Sea God Pavilion's library, Mu En hesitated again. According to the notes left by Master Yu Xiaogang, the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid's function is to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vital energy, and to increase the cultivation speed of a Soul Master. Its effects can last until level 70.

However, Zhang Lexuan's soul power level has already exceeded level 70, and she will soon be able to break through to the Soul Douluo level.

To be honest, using this eight-petaled orchid on her would yield very little benefit; the cost-effectiveness is almost nonexistent.

Did Ye Qing leave it here because he considered Zhang Lexuan's level and felt that the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid wouldn't be of much use to her, and intended for the academy to distribute this immortal herb?

Moon was a little unsure.

Personally speaking, Mu En definitely wanted Bei Bei to take the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid. This immortal herb, which strengthens the body's foundation and nourishes the vital energy, could not only improve Bei Bei's cultivation speed but also catch up on the progress he had fallen behind in the past few years of neglecting his studies.

If he were to take it, Mu En was certain that his great-grandson would be able to break through to the Limit Douluo level in the future.

But rationally speaking, he really couldn't do such a selfish thing. Ye Qing risked his life to retrieve the immortal herb from that other dimension just to line his own pocket and practice nepotism.

At this moment, Mu En's selfishness as an elder of the Xuanzu and his conscience as a teacher and pavilion master were constantly fighting in his heart, with both sides trying to gain the upper hand and make Mu En obey their will.

In the end, reason prevailed over selfishness.

A flawless version after careful inspection!

Immortal herbs are very precious, but as a Light-attribute Soul Master capable of cultivating to level ninety-nine, Mu En wouldn't do something so underhanded. Don't underestimate this small decision; according to the concept of immortal herbs during the Douluo Continent era, Mu En undoubtedly abandoned the greatest greed.

When a person is about to die, he should not only think of himself, but also of his descendants.

Some people are willing to do anything for their offspring, even the most heinous things. It's not that Moon doesn't love Beibei, but it's clear that he's not the kind of person without principles.

However, Mu En clearly forgot that while he possessed a strong heart and unwavering will, not everyone could be like him. In Mu En's eyes, the immortal herb was not as important as his bottom line and sense of righteousness.

In the eyes of some, how could such a precious thing as the immortal herb be wasted on someone who would not have much effect after taking it, just because of some feelings?

Maximizing profits is their only goal.

In their view, since Zhang Lexuan was past the age of consuming the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, this immortal herb should be offered up and handed over to a Soul Master who could truly make it work, so as to create greater benefits for Shrek Academy.

Moon is about to be betrayed!
