Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 290 Run?

Mu En's demise was incredibly frustrating, and arguably the most humiliating death ever suffered by a Limit Douluo.

Which normal Limit Douluo doesn't die in a fierce battle, live a wonderful life and then quietly pass away, or peacefully close their eyes with their disciples, grandchildren, relatives and descendants seeing them off?

Like Moon, he was exceptionally talented and admired by all in his youth, powerful and respected by the world in his prime, and in his later years, as the master of the Sea God Pavilion, he led Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent, and was showered with glory.

However, on his deathbed, he was utterly disgraced, dragging his wounded and crippled body as he was betrayed by Shrek, to whom he had dedicated his life, bearing the infamy and eternal stigma, and ultimately dying in obscurity.

But there was nothing we could do.

To be honest, Lin Yun really admired Mu En. He was able to maintain a certain level of clarity in a hellish place like Shrek Academy, and he was also able to develop the Soul Guidance System with a long-term vision. While grasping the answer to the current situation, he also helped Shrek Academy recruit Huo Gua, the chosen one of destiny.

He and Xuanzi were like two extremes: one calm and wise, the other reckless and impulsive; one farsighted, the other short-sighted.

That is why Lin Yun had to force Mu En offline.

To truly kill Mu En, Lin Yun actually had many other ways to do so. It was difficult to kill a Limit Douluo in his prime, but it was still possible to kill a Limit Douluo who was severely injured and weakened like Mu En.

It's a bit troublesome, but not much.

Killing Moon alone won't do any good. He has already gone into hiding. While killing Moon might cause some turmoil at Shrek Academy, with Moon already relinquishing power, Shrek will return to normal operations in less than half a month.

The mere absence of Moon would have a significant impact on Shrek Academy, but it wouldn't be of much help to Lin Yun.

With the Golden Tree in place, directly destroying Shrek Academy would be nothing short of a pipe dream. Therefore, Lin Yun could only resort to a small scheme to cause internal strife and division within Shrek Academy, while simultaneously ruining Shrek's reputation on the Douluo Continent.

The moment Mu En died, Lin Yun, who was cultivating, was awakened by Bing Di.

"Your Excellency, Shrek Academy has lost a powerful figure, just now." The Ice Emperor's cold voice reached Lin Yun's ears.

After gradually calming down the rapidly circulating Solar Scripture, Lin Yun opened his eyes.

"Oh? A powerful expert died? How powerful?" Lin Yun raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.

He was in the outer courtyard at the time, so he certainly didn't know what was happening in the Sea God Pavilion. Even if the Soul Beast Clan was incredibly powerful, it was impossible for them to secretly monitor the Sea God Pavilion without being discovered by anyone.

Unless Gu Yuena comes in person.

Therefore, during this period, Lin Yun simply cultivated with Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian in the outer courtyard, watching Shrek Academy become deserted and waiting for Shrek to become the enemy of the continent.

There are very few people left in the Foreign Languages ​​Department now.

Presumably the inner courtyard is the same.

"Very strong. At the moment that human died, it unleashed at least the soul power fluctuations of a human Limit Douluo. I could sense the fluctuations when the soul core collapsed, and those fluctuations were even stronger than mine," Ice Emperor calmly analyzed.

Here, we first need to understand one point: Soul power is soul power, and combat power is combat power.

In terms of combat power, the Ice Empress, with her current cultivation of 400,000 years, is definitely not inferior to a severely crippled Mu En. However, Mu En is still a Limit Douluo with two soul cores. Although she cannot match the Ice Empress in terms of combat power, she surpasses her in terms of soul power.

At the moment of Moon's fall, his identical resonant dual soul cores collapsed instantly. However, under Moon's control, there was no soul core explosion that would have leveled Shrek Academy. Externally, it appeared as if Moon's entire body had transformed into pure soul power and dissipated into the air.

As fellow peak experts, and given that the outer court is only "one step away" from the inner court, the Ice Emperor could clearly sense the fluctuations of this soul core collapse, which meant the fall of a peak expert.

To be honest, Xuanzi should have been able to sense it too, but Mu En didn't want him to know.

If Xuanzi knew that Mu En was dead, he would surely awaken from his seclusion and then engage in a great battle with the members of the Sea God Pavilion led by Elder Song, causing Shrek Academy to completely split apart and even be destroyed.

The best outcome would be for Xuanzi to take Yan Shaozhe away and escape Shrek Academy.

Therefore, due to the dual isolation caused by Mu En and the inherent power of the Golden Tree, Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe were completely unaware of Mu En's demise and were still working on the sewing machine at the bottom of the Golden Tree.

And this is what Mr. Song hoped to see.

She has now basically taken over the entire Sea God Pavilion, and has become the new Pavilion Master.

The later Xuanzi emerges, the more time she will have to reorganize Shrek Academy and rebuild it into an unbreakable fortress.

Well... of course, this is all just wishful thinking on Old Song's part. In reality, how she can turn Shrek Academy depends entirely on Lin Yun's mood. As long as Lin Yun doesn't want Shrek Academy to have an easy time, without Mu En, Shrek Academy is practically at his mercy.

"A powerful expert of the Limit Douluo realm has fallen..." Lin Yun's eyes widened immediately, his expression extremely strange.

Who else in Shrek Academy could be considered the ultimate limit? Of course, it's Dragon God Moon!

Logically speaking, since Ma Xiaotao didn't fall into the Black Phoenix during the competition, and the Holy Spirit Cult didn't attack Shrek Academy because of Ma Xiaotao, Mu En, who hadn't experienced a single battle, shouldn't have died at this time. Therefore, the reason for Mu En's premature death must be Lin Yun's doing!

"That's awesome!"

Lin Yun almost slammed his fist on the table in approval.

Although it's unclear whether Moon died a natural death due to the approaching end of his lifespan or from being driven to his death by his own outrageous actions, it doesn't matter. As long as Moon is dead!

If he were still alive, he might actually have a way to solve Shrek Academy's problems, but since Moon is dead, Shrek Academy can forget about clearing its name!

It wasn't that Lin Yun looked down on those bastards from the Sea God Pavilion; it was simply that they didn't have the strength at all!

They lack strategy and are not good at scheming. Besides relying on their strength to brute force, there are basically no people who dare to oppose Shrek Academy. They are high and mighty, so how would they know how to clear their name?

Lin Yun glanced out the window at the almost deserted Shrek Academy campus and fell into deep thought.

His original purpose in coming to Shrek Academy was to bring it down from within and have some fun, but now that he has achieved that goal, there is no point in him staying any longer.

How about... we get some moisturizing?
