As the two drops of blood drew ever closer, Yan Shaozhe instinctively clenched his fists. He was a smart man; he naturally understood that Ye Xishui's insistence on a blood test was not without reason. But this was simply too unbelievable.

Limit Douluo, when did I get a grandmother at the Limit Douluo level?

However, the Radiant Phoenix Martial Soul, apart from its own lineage, has indeed not appeared on the continent for many years.

The two drops of blood finally came into contact. They touched tentatively at first, and then, like two soft little balls, bounced apart slightly. Between the two little balls that bounced apart, there was actually a strand of blood connecting them. In the next instant, the two blood beads had merged together at an astonishing speed, turning into a larger blood bead.

Ironclad evidence.

The mysterious and powerful figure before him was none other than his own flesh and blood.

But if she is his grandmother, then why did his father become an orphan? And who is his grandfather?

Yan Shaozhe was in turmoil, his mind reeling from countless questions and shocks. But the current situation was still clear: the priority was to eliminate Kong Tianxu, this deadly threat.

He had just managed to compose himself and was preparing to ask this suddenly appearing grandmother for help...

But Ye Xishui had already turned around, bowed slightly to Kong Tianxu who had been standing quietly by, and spoke respectfully:

“Master, Shao Zhe is young and impetuous and has offended you. Xi Shui apologizes on his behalf. Please forgive him this time.”

Owner?!

Yan Shaozhe's mind went blank for a moment, completely confused, followed by boundless despair.

If it were just Ye Xishui alone, he could have escaped at his peak using his Super Douluo cultivation. But now, his soul power was nearly exhausted, he was critically injured and on the verge of death, and standing beside him was Kong Tianxu, who had just almost killed him instantly…

Today, he probably won't be able to go back.

Kong Tianxu, who had been keeping a low profile, finally spoke up leisurely:

"Dean Yan, doesn't the name 'Xi Shui' sound familiar?"

Xishui?

Wait... Xi Shui?!

The name struck him like lightning, cleaving through his chaotic memories, and a look of horror suddenly flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes.

Isn't this the name of Ye Xishui, the woman the teacher deeply loved back then, but who was painfully separated from him due to various reasons and ultimately fell into the path of an evil soul master?

Isn't she a demonic spirit master? Yet the powerful and pure aura of light surrounding her is undeniable.

Could it be that I am actually my teacher's child?! That's why my teacher has been so protective of me and treated me like their own son?

Countless past scenes flashed through Yan Shaozhe's mind: the complex look that Mu En occasionally gave him, his extraordinary patience and willingness to share everything he knew, and certain moments when he seemed to want to say something but couldn't...

All the clues seemed to connect at this moment, making him even more certain of his astonishing conjecture.

I had even lamented the fate of this ill-fated couple, only to find out that they were actually my grandparents.

"Xi Shui? You're Ye Xi Shui?" Yan Shaozhe asked hoarsely, his gaze fixed on Ye Xi Shui. "Grandma Ye, please tell me! Whose child am I? What exactly happened?"

Kong Tianxu's thoughts stirred slightly, and Ye Xishui's face showed a hint of struggle at the opportune moment.

"Sigh, it's about time."

"This story begins more than two hundred years ago. When I was six years old, I unfortunately awakened a half-evil martial spirit."

Ye Xishui's slightly sorrowful tone was full of the marks of time.

She recounted how, in her early years, due to a trace of corrupting nature hidden within her martial soul, she was hunted down as an evil soul master. By chance, she successfully joined a powerful evil soul master sect. Although she was now safe, she was forced by the sect's leader to truly become an evil soul master. She then maneuvered between Long Xiaoyao and Mu En, sowing discord and causing the brothers to turn against each other.

However, although she eventually broke free from the control of that powerful evil spirit master and even brought that evil spirit master's sect under her command, she fell in love with Long Xiaoyao in the process and gave birth to a child, who was Yan Shaozhe's father.

Yan Shaozhe's gaze had already glazed over, while Ye Xishui continued her narration:

"You didn't expect this, did you? I knew you'd be surprised. Actually, I never planned to let you know that you have a grandmother who is a cultist. I just wanted you to live a healthy life."

"Heh, after all, who would have thought that a Limit Douluo-level evil soul master would possess a second martial soul, the Phoenix of Light? I have been hiding this martial soul very, very deep. Because once I reveal this martial soul, those evil soul masters will not let you go, your future will be plunged into an abyss of no return, and I will truly and completely lose my mind."

"Therefore, I have kept my second martial soul a secret for two hundred years."

Throughout this process, Ye Xishui remained completely unguarded around Yan Shaozhe, so Yan Shaozhe could sense from Ye Xishui's intense mental fluctuations that her words were absolutely genuine.

Therefore, although Ye Xishui's version was different from the version he heard from Elder Xuan and other elders, he still subconsciously believed it.

After all, that was over two hundred years of forbearance! Putting himself in that position, Yan Shaozhe couldn't even imagine that pain.

“Grandma…” he said with great difficulty, “But why are you cultivating the Phoenix of Light again now? And have you reached such a profound level?”

"Because of Tianxu, our great master, the evil spirit masters."

Ye Xishui's eyes suddenly shone with an amazing light as she turned to Kong Tianxu, and even Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but look at the young man who was resting with his eyes closed not far away.

Meanwhile, Yan Shaozhe, completely absorbed in Ye Xishui's narration, did not notice at all that a blurry, ethereal figure quietly appeared behind him.

Then, Ye Xishui's first words caused Yan Shaozhe to lose his composure:

"His martial soul ability can help evil soul masters completely purify the evil energy within their martial souls,"

The Holy Spirit Puppet's six wings shimmered with golden light, and along with Ye Xishui's peculiar voice, invisible black and white threads slowly began to weave.

"With Tianxu's help, I no longer had any worries. I not only began cultivating the Radiant Phoenix Martial Soul, but also joined forces with your grandfather, Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao, to completely overthrow the original evil soul master sect."

"However, I underestimated the cunning of the evil spirit masters. They have already spread and branched out all over the continent. In order to completely solve this problem, Tianxu and I founded the Holy Spirit Cult, an organization dedicated to purifying evil power."

"Currently, we have discovered and dealt with many forces that harbor evil spirit masters, and the Xuanming Sect is one of them."

So that's how it is!

Yan Shaozhe suddenly understood, and a small black and white vortex swirled in each of his eyes, making him even more convinced of Ye Xishui's words.

No wonder the Xuanming Sect was destroyed by a Limit Douluo with the Light Attribute who suddenly appeared on the continent. No wonder the teacher was suddenly intercepted and surrounded by a group of evil soul masters when he returned. No wonder the Dragon Emperor Douluo, oh no, his grandfather, stood firmly on Kong Tianxu's side.

Yan Shaozhe was deep in thought, his brain racing at an unprecedented speed, but Ye Xishui's next words instantly brought him to a standstill:

“Even within Shrek Academy, there are still remnants of this sect.”

She paused, then spoke with absolute certainty:

"It's inside the Sea God's Pavilion!"

Chapter 250 Mu En's Last Will: The Enemy is at the Sea God Pavilion!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Yan Shaozhe's expression changed drastically, and he immediately and sternly rejected Ye Xishui's words.

There are evil soul masters inside the Sea God Pavilion? That's utterly absurd!

Was it Xian Lin'er who married that silly boy Qian Duoduo out of spite towards him? Or Cai Mei'er, who was by his side day and night? Was it the kind-hearted Zhuang Lao and Lin Lao? Or the righteous Song Lao and Yun Lao? Or perhaps the research-obsessed Cui Lao?

It can't be that current Sea God Pavilion Master, Elder Xuan, who caused eight deaths and four injuries in a Soul Hunting Operation and one death and six serious injuries in a Shrek Academy Inspection Team Inspection Mission due to his own Martial Soul problem, right?

These elders are all seniors who have watched him grow up. They have been together for decades or even nearly a hundred years, and they are both teachers and friends. He believes he knows each of their character and past in his heart.

Based on this long-held understanding, Ye Xishui's words were nothing short of the most absurd slander to him.

In Yan Shaozhe's eyes, the black and white vortex trembled violently, while Ye Xishui still looked at him with affection, as if she had a thousand words to say but hesitated to speak.

Kong Tianxu, with his back to Yan Shaozhe, had his eyes slightly closed and his brows furrowed.

Tiny golden specks of light, like dust, escaped from his tightly closed eyes, but were firmly locked in by his powerful and precise mental strength, preventing them from leaking out the slightest fluctuation.

Is that too far-fetched?

Yan Shaozhe's faith in Shrek Academy was even more profound than he had initially imagined. In order to ensure that the memory weaving and mental suggestion were sufficiently concealed and deep, Kong Tianxu had to increase the output of his mental power.

Without a doubt, Kong Tianxu is using the soul-controlling ability of the Holy Spirit Puppet to alter the spiritual imprint deep within Yan Shaozhe's spiritual sea.

First, she gained Yan Shaozhe's trust by sharing Ye Xishui's absolutely real personal experiences and the issue of his background that Yan Shaozhe cared about most, gradually opening his heart. When he was most shaken and immersed, she quietly planted the seeds of thought she had woven, using the mark left by the Heavenly Heart Sword as the source.

This made Yan Shaozhe completely believe Ye Xishui's words, making her the most useful bomb he planted inside Shrek Academy.

In fact, whether it's the natal demonic puppet or the soul ring demonic puppet, Kong Tianxu can enable Yan Shaozhe to retain his sanity while still being able to control him.

However, Yan Shaozhe's strength was still too weak for him, and there was no need to waste these spots, which is why such a troublesome method was needed.

Since simple talk therapy isn't working, let's add some more substance.

"Shao Zhe, I know this is hard for you to believe, but it was actually said by your teacher, Dragon God Douluo Mu En, himself."

Ye Xishui sighed deeply, her expression filled with indescribable melancholy.

A teacher? How could a teacher possibly let me off the hook...?

Before Yan Shaozhe could voice his question, Kong Tianxu, who had been facing away from him, finally turned around slowly.

A peculiar golden light emanated from him, unlike any other golden hue he had ever displayed before; it was a golden light that seemed to burn with golden flames. Yet, these golden flames were icy cold.

Beyond this coldness, it reveals a tenacious and proud spirit that grows stronger with each setback, like a king reigning over the world, exuding an aura of supreme power and a strange spiritual intent.

"This is……!"

Sensing the unique aura emanating from this thought, Yan Shaozhe's eyes widened immediately.

To rule the world, that's it!

Although it was as clumsy as if it was the first time it had been used successfully, it was absolutely and undeniably the purest and original version of "Ruling the World" from the hands of Dragon God Douluo Mu En!

How could he possibly know his teacher's ultimate technique?! Even though he had stayed in the Wutong Pavilion, his understanding of its essence was mainly focused on the application of martial spirit power. Without his teacher's instruction, how could anyone else possibly learn such profound and exquisite combat skills?

Unless, of course, the teacher has actually met Kong Tianxu and has a very high level of trust in him, and is even willing to teach him his most secret technique, "Ruling the World."

The physical wounds were almost healed in that short time, but Yan Shaozhe's heart sank little by little into a cold abyss.

"Impossible..." He involuntarily took a few steps back, repeating his previous words, but his tone was no longer as certain as before.

Kong Tianxu certainly knew how to use Mu En's "Ruling the World" ability; he had previously chopped Mu En's soul into minced meat in the Golden Tree's consciousness world.

His three awakenings of his martial soul also endowed him with a terrifying ability to instantly grasp the essence of any skill.

Even though he seemed a little awkward when he first used it, in such a short time, Kong Tianxu's control over Junlin Tianxia was already no less than that of Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao.

At that moment, he took a step forward.

"These things were revealed to me by the remnant soul of Dragon God Douluo Mu En when I was comprehending in the Wutong Pavilion. He said that he originally intended to use his Limit Douluo cultivation to forcibly retain his soul power and part of his soul in the Golden Tree, to coexist with it. However, his soul was injured by the remnants of the evil soul master during the fusion process and was on the verge of breaking. If I hadn't triggered the resonance of the Golden Tree, I'm afraid no one would have known about this."

"Unfortunately, my enlightenment with the Golden Tree was quickly interrupted, and the Dragon God Douluo's spiritual consciousness was too fragmented, leaving only fragments of words and the complete cultivation method of the Sovereign of the World as evidence. We still do not know who the real evil soul master is."

Kong Tianxu looked directly into Yan Shaozhe's violently shaking eyes, and spoke each word with resounding force:

"But I remember his last words very clearly: 'The enemy is at the Sea God's Pavilion.'"

"Now, Dean Yan, don't you still believe me?"
