Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 404 Yan Shaozhe's Grief and Indignation (He only has himself to blame)

When Di Tian and his group returned to the Lake of Life, the scene before them shattered Di Tian's worldview.

Lin Yun ate the fruit with a smile on his face, while Gu Yuena nestled against him like a little bird, peeling the fruit for him and feeding it to him.

Holy shit.

Good heavens! The Venerable One and the Lord are actually sticking together like that!

Moreover, the master was actually feeding the venerable one like a submissive wife. Where did that kick come from? Is this still the same irritable venerable one and the aloof master?

wrong.

Emperor Tian, ​​with his exceptional intelligence, immediately identified the key point.

"According to the tradition of our dragon race, dragons with pure bloodlines are more likely to produce powerful offspring. If the Venerable One and the Lord One, who are avatars of the Dragon God, were to unite, wouldn't that be the most perfect match made in heaven for our dragon race?" A hint of wisdom flashed in Di Tian's eyes.

"As expected, relying solely on that little auspicious beast won't be enough to keep His Majesty's heart in our Starry Sky; we still need His Majesty's intervention!"

Hmph, these two little ice and snow emperors seem rather comical in front of their lord.

As long as the Lord makes a move, the position of Queen is completely in the bag. In the end, the winner will still be me, Xingdou! Hehehehe~

"Di Tian, ​​is there something that makes you happy? Tell me about it?" Gu Yuena wiped the juice off her hands, looked up at Di Tian, ​​and a playful glint flashed in her crimson eyes.

Di Tian's expression instantly tightened, transforming him into a serious Celestial Dragon: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Your Majesty's plan has achieved excellent results. Those human forces are now fighting tooth and nail at the Shrek Academy ruins!"

"Such a joyous occasion truly brings happiness!"

Well, that's a perfect reason, but Gu Yuena doesn't accept it.

"Isn't it expected that brother's plan would succeed?" Gu Yuena snorted and gave Di Tian a warning look.

Don't think I didn't see that you're shipping me and my brother. Although it's true, subordinates are not allowed to ship their superiors!

This is utterly upside down.

Lin Yun was quite interested in the situation on the Golden Tree's side. How many "tools" could a book like "The Source of Life" attract to help him was a very important matter.

He needed to assess whether these "tools" were sufficient to exhaust Tang San's spiritual energy.

Otherwise, it would be even more ridiculous if they couldn't even get past Ah Yin.

Of course, Lin Yun didn't know that Ah Yin had been controlled by the Golden Tree, otherwise he wouldn't be doing all this nonsense. With Ah Yin unable to make a move, Tang San would have no choice but to reluctantly release his divine sense if any Title Douluo came along.

If he doesn't take action, the Golden Tree might really be taken away.

What kind of thing is it to have your own mother dug up with a hoe? It's only because the divine consciousness in the Golden Tree wasn't triggered that Tang San was able to arrange for the Clear Sky Sect to guard the Golden Tree.

As for whether the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape know about the situation here...

Of course I know.

They just found out too late.

The Haotian Sect is a completely secluded and closed-off world, and the Demon King would never sell unofficial history to a place like the Haotian Sect. This led to a situation where, when Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong returned to the Haotian Sect to tell them about these things, a chaotic brawl, reminiscent of a school playground, had already broken out next to the Golden Tree.

(Don't leave after school!)

At Lin Yun's request, Di Tian recounted the entire information transmitted by the Demon King. During the first three days of the "Source of Life's" dissemination, most forces remained on the sidelines, waiting for the first to take the plunge.

Those second-rate sects that didn't even have a single Title Douluo knew they couldn't possibly possess such a treasure, so they didn't become stepping stones for others.

Only a handful of young Karami, with a humorous attitude of "maybe we'll succeed?", fearlessly charged towards the golden tree.

As a result, not only did he fail to encounter the Golden Tree, but he also failed to get past Yan Shaozhe, who easily burned him to ashes with his Bright Flame.

Even while sitting in the Sea God Pavilion, Yan Shaozhe, who stayed behind at the Golden Tree, could vaguely sense countless faint auras surrounding Shrek City. The greedy eyes staring at the Golden Tree made the former dean of Shrek feel a chill in his heart.

The Golden Tree... eventually attracted the attention of other forces.

What made Yan Shaozhe even more grief-stricken was that none of the forces that had been on good terms with Shrek Academy were willing to lend a helping hand. Shrek Academy had cultivated so many powerful individuals, yet not one of them was willing to stand up at this moment and do their part to protect the Golden Tree.

Including Yan Shaozhe himself, during his years as the dean of the Martial Soul Department at Shrek Academy, he has not only taught countless students, but also produced quite a few powerful individuals.

He is nearly a hundred years old, and among the older students who graduated from his class, there are even Soul Douluo and Title Douluo powerhouses.

But none of those people made a move.

It can only be said that Yan Shaozhe's information was too limited. Before he came out of the bottom of the Golden Tree, the entire Shrek Academy had already been blown up. Afterwards, he had to guard the Golden Tree every step of the way, so he had no chance to learn about the outside world.

So naturally, he had no idea just how bad Shrek's reputation had become at that time.

Even without Lin Yun's interference, Shrek Academy would still have maintained its original reputation. But now that they've fallen to their current state, those forces will only kick them while they're down, not offer any help.

Why?

Because Shrek himself set a good example.

Shrek Academy witnessed the decline of the Tang Clan from beginning to end. Even when the Tang Clan's foundation was seized by the weak Iron Blood Sect, and only Tang Ya, a young girl, escaped, Shrek Academy did nothing.

By the way, Tang Ya once said that Shrek Academy's attitude towards the Tang Sect was something like that.

Oh, so you're saying you only help in emergencies, not in long-term poverty?

Well, Shrek Academy is pretty poor right now, so we'll only help in emergencies, not in long-term poverty.

If Shrek Academy were still at its peak and encountered something like a beast horde attacking the city, then of course we would come to lend a hand.

But now Shrek Academy only has Yan Shaozhe as its only Title Douluo, and it also possesses the Golden Tree, a treasure of immense value. Being both so poor and so rich makes it difficult for us to do anything.

Dear Sir, listen to our advice: the Golden Tree is a treasure that is not meant for you. You cannot keep it by forcibly taking it.

Rare and precious treasures belong to the capable, and Shrek Academy is destined to have them, but we are!

Moreover, Yan Shaozhe has absolutely no idea how many enemies Shrek Academy has made over the years. Now that Shrek Academy has fallen on hard times, the other forces in Douluo Continent are just hoping they die.

Offer a helping hand?

That's a bit of wishful thinking.
