Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect

Upon hearing Xuanzi's response, Mu En's calm expression crumbled like a broken dam, replaced by a look of anger.

He roared, "Xuanzi, are you really that clueless about the current situation? Since you failed in the last counterattack in the Mingdou Mountains, you should realize that you have no ability to command a large army at all, instead of blindly believing that you have remarkable military talent."

In fact, you don't need to force your way into command, since it's not your area of ​​expertise. If Xu Jiujiu were to command the army, even if they were defeated, the number of casualties among the allied forces might be much lower.

Now that the allied forces have suffered a crushing defeat with countless casualties, how is Shrek Academy supposed to explain this to the Star Luo Emperor, the Dou Ling Emperor, the Haotian Sect, and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?

We're all in the same boat now; we must be united to fight the Sun Moon Empire. Because of your actions, if I don't handle this properly, it could cause an irreparable rift in our relationship!

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi's body trembled slightly. After a moment, he slowly raised his head, his eyes red and his face full of tears. He choked out, "Elder Mu, it's all my fault. I am no longer qualified to serve as an elder of the Sea God Pavilion. Therefore, I have decided to resign from my position as an elder as punishment for myself. This is also a way of giving them an explanation!"

“Xuanzi, you should indeed no longer serve as an elder, but resigning from your position as an elder is too lenient a punishment,” Mu En said coldly.

Xuanzi was somewhat incredulous. He subconsciously widened his eyes, thinking that since Elder Mu was acting so unpredictably, shouldn't he be trying his best to keep him from resigning and expressing his desire for him to continue contributing to the academy?

What's wrong with Old Mu today? Why did he say such a thing?

He couldn't understand it, but he keenly sensed that something was wrong with the situation today, and that he might really lose his position as a senior elder.

So he immediately said in a deep voice, "Elder Mu, whatever other punishment there is, I will accept it. After all, if you do something wrong, you need to be punished. Even if I am the second strongest in Shrek Academy, I cannot escape punishment!"

Looking at Xuanzi's tear-streaked face, Mu En thought that in the past he might have felt that Xuanzi was genuinely repentant, but Xuanzi's repeated mistakes could not be explained by ordinary carelessness.

Mu En even began to suspect that Xuan Zi was doing it on purpose, but as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he immediately dismissed it. He had known Xuan Zi for many years and knew that the other party wouldn't be so outrageous as to do that.

However, for Xuanzi, who has repeatedly made serious mistakes, he really needs to increase the severity of the punishment, otherwise he really won't be able to give others an explanation.

Of course, given the large number of Shrek Academy's strongest members who have fallen, and the fact that Xuanzi is currently the second strongest member of Shrek Academy, he cannot kill him for the sake of the bigger picture.

Mu En said in a deep voice, "Xuanzi, starting today, you will leave Shrek Academy and infiltrate the Sun Moon Empire to cause trouble. You are not allowed to return to Shrek Academy before the Allied Forces enter Mingdu!"

Unfortunately, in a sense, Xuanzi's destructive power to their side is too great, so Mu En doesn't dare to let Xuanzi continue to participate in the allied forces' affairs, for fear that the other party will deal another heavy blow to the allied forces.

In that case, it would be better to send Xuanzi directly to the Sun Moon Empire, allowing him to fully utilize his talent for causing chaos and thus diverting the attention of the Sun Moon powerhouses and relieving the pressure on the allied forces at the front lines.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi remained silent for a moment before finally saying in a deep voice, "Yes, Elder Mu!"

"Alright, go to the Sun Moon Empire now!" Mu En waved his hand, his face showing obvious exhaustion, and Xuanzi left quickly.

Standing beside Mu En, Yan Shaozhe remained silent, staring at Xuanzi's back with the same look he had for a dead man. For him, Xian Lin'er's death was a major blow, after all, she had been his lover.

The reason he didn't rebuke Xuanzi when the teacher criticized him was mainly because he understood that saying more would be meaningless.

From a broader perspective, there is no way the teacher could kill Xuanzi.

Therefore, he had made up his mind that he must work hard to cultivate. Once he became a Limit Douluo, he would be in charge of the overall situation and would be able to strike back hard against Xuanzi to avenge the dead Shrek students and the elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

"Shao Zhe, have the people from Haotian Sect, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Star Luo Royal Family, and Douling Royal Family come over. I need to talk to them about something," Mu En said without turning his head.

"Yes, teacher!"

Chapter 673 Tang San's Fury as He Calms the Crowd

After saying that, Yan Shaozhe immediately left the Sea God Pavilion, visited all the academies, gathered up all the people Mu En wanted to see, and then brought them all to the Sea God Pavilion to meet Mu En.

"Elder Mu, where is Xuanzi? I want to fight him to the death. Killing Xuanzi is not enough to quell my hatred!" Tang Niu, the Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect, glared angrily, holding the Haotian Hammer martial spirit in his right hand, exuding a strong killing intent.

The fact that all the Haotian Sect members who went to the front line to support the Allied Forces, led by the Second Elder Tang Feng, were killed in action undoubtedly dealt him an extremely heavy blow.

The deaths of these people are inextricably linked to the Sun Moon Empire, and of course, they are also inextricably linked to Xuanzi. If it weren't for Xuanzi's extremely foolish methods, how could all the Haotian Sect members have perished?

While external enemies are certainly hateful, the existence of incompetent teammates is also intolerable.

Upon hearing this, others also began to express their opinions.

"Yes, Xuanzi should pay for the lives of those who died, and our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School also needs an explanation!"

"The Douling royal family also needs an explanation."

"The Star Luo Royal Family is the same!"

The crowd was indignant, openly venting their dissatisfaction with Xuanzi.

Moon had a headache and remained silent, letting these people vent their emotions.

Xuanzi was in the wrong in this matter, so naturally he wouldn't defend Xuanzi.

However, since Xuanzi is the second strongest in Shrek Academy, he naturally carries the label of Shrek Academy, so Shrek Academy also needs to bear some responsibility for this matter.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Regarding Xuanzi's matter, the teacher will give you an explanation. Just now, the teacher has already punished Xuanzi." Yan Shaozhe's sharp, knife-like gaze swept over the crowd.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent, their gazes fixed on Moon, awaiting his response.

Mu En said in a deep voice, "I have stripped Xuanzi of his status as an elder and sent him deep into the Sun Moon Empire to cause trouble. Before the allied forces enter Mingdu, Xuanzi is not allowed to return to Shrek Academy."

For Xuanzi, unless the allied forces storm the capital of Ming, he would spend the rest of his life wreaking havoc throughout the Sun Moon Empire, and might even die there—that would be an extremely severe punishment.

Upon hearing this, Tang Niu sneered: "Elder Mu, the title of a senior elder is nothing but an empty name. With Xuanzi's level 98 Super Douluo cultivation, does it really matter whether he is an elder or not?"

As for your claim that Xuanzi was sent to the Sun Moon Empire to cause trouble, forgive my bluntness, but I don't trust Xuanzi at all. Who knows if his trip to the Sun Moon Empire will lead him into danger or back to square one? After all, given everything Xuanzi has done, I have reason to suspect that he has already sided with the Sun Moon Empire!

Upon hearing this, doubts also appeared on the faces of the others.

Mu En's expression darkened, and he said, "Elder Tang Niu, I know that you harbor resentment towards Xuanzi because of his actions, but no matter what, Xuanzi will never submit to the Sun Moon Empire. I can guarantee that with my own reputation!"

"If the allied forces conquer Mingdu and achieve victory, and Xuanzi is still alive, I promise you that you can fight Xuanzi one-on-one to the death. This duel will only involve the two of you, and no one else will step in to stop your revenge!"

For Mu En, he had to appease Tang Niu's emotions as much as possible. Otherwise, if Tang Niu became unhappy and took the people of Haotian Sect back to continue living in seclusion, it would undoubtedly weaken the strength of their joint resistance against the Sun Moon Empire.

As for this promise, it is certainly true. However, to be honest, Moon felt that Tang Niu might not even live to see that time, given the escalating intensity of the war.

Upon hearing this, Tang Niu's eyes lit up: "Is this really true?"

He wanted to fight Xuanzi to the death, but the biggest obstacle was actually this Limit Douluo. If the other party insisted on stopping him, he had no good way to stop him. Although the First Sect Master and the Second Sect Master were powerful, in Tang Niu's memory, these two could only guard the sect and could not go out to help him now.

“Of course it can’t be faked. If you don’t believe me, I can swear it right now in front of the statue of Tang San’s ancestor.” Mu En’s voice was as deep as thunder.

Seeing this, Tang Niu said, "Old Mu, there's no need for you to swear an oath. I'll trust you one more time."

"Tang Niu, since you have already agreed to my request, I must remind you again that before we defeat the Sun Moon Empire, I hope you will prioritize the overall situation and temporarily put aside your hatred for Xuanzi."

"Don't worry, Elder Mu, go and ask around at Haotian Sect. I, Tang Niu, am the one who puts the big picture first!" Tang Niu replied.

Appeasing Tang Niu is equivalent to appeasing the Haotian Sect members stationed at Shrek Academy.

Immediately afterwards, Moon began to reassure the others.

He gave the Douling Royal Family and the Xingluo Royal Family some soul bones as compensation and promised to provide free soul tools, although the overall quality of Shrek's soul tools could not compare with that of Mingde Hall's soul tools.

However, in terms of the quality of soul tools, Shrek Academy is far superior to the three great empires.

As for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, they were relatively easy to talk to. Mu En successfully appeased the group by giving them some soul bones in return.

.......

Spirit world.

Tang San sat high on the divine throne, his face gloomy.

The reason is simple: people from the Haotian Sect have died in droves.

Therefore, he made a special observation and learned the cause of death of these people.

For Tang San, after ten thousand years of taming, the Clear Sky Sect had become a place where he harvested the power of faith. There were two main reasons why he made the Clear Sky Sect hide from the world.

First of all, in his eyes, the disciples of the Haotian Sect were just a group of livestock that provided him with faith power. If he released the livestock casually, it would mean that there would be losses and the amount of faith power he could harvest would be reduced.

Secondly, in a relatively closed and secluded environment, it is actually easier to brainwash these Haotian Sect members and make them develop a firm belief in themselves.

To this day, almost all members of the Haotian Sect have extremely devout faith in him, so they can provide him with a lot of faith power every year.

As a result, nearly half of the Haotian Sect members died on the battlefield.

Undoubtedly, even for Tang San, this is a considerable loss. After all, a devout believer is much harder to cultivate than a casual believer.

Moreover, devout believers can provide more spiritual strength than casual believers.

"Who exactly sent the Haotian Sect members down the mountain? Could it be Da Ming and Er Ming?"

His eyes blazed with fury, his divine sense surged, and he immediately began to contact Da Ming and Er Ming. Although Da Ming and Er Ming had been resurrected, he could still easily contact them because of their special relationship with him.

The next moment, the phantom images of Da Ming and Er Ming appeared in front of Tang San.

He immediately launched into a tirade: "Da Ming, Er Ming, I need an explanation. Why have all the Soul Masters of the Clear Sky Sect left the mountain? And why have nearly half of the Clear Sky Sect members died on the battlefield?"

Chapter 674 Let the people of Haotian Sect suffer, and let Da Ming and Er Ming bear the infamy!

Upon hearing this, Da Ming and Er Ming felt a jolt in their hearts. In fact, they already knew that the group of Haotian Sect Soul Masters who had come down the mountain had encountered an accident.

Although Tang San wouldn't kill them out of respect for Xiao Wu, since Tang San now demands an explanation, they should naturally tell the truth. Otherwise, no one knows what Tang San might do.

Da Ming said in a deep voice, "The matter is like this..."

He quickly informed Tang San about Wang Dong's visit to the Clear Sky Sect seeking help, and how he then dispatched Clear Sky Sect Soul Masters down the mountain to support Shrek Academy.

Tang San's face was gloomy: "I can understand why Mu En sent Xiao Qi to Shrek Academy for help. After all, Shrek Academy is indeed in a bad situation right now, and Mu En also wants to seek more support from outside. However, Xiao Qi is young and doesn't understand things. Don't you understand things too?"

To ensure the safety of the Haotian Sect members, the sect has been in seclusion for ten thousand years under my orders. As the saying goes, ancestral laws cannot be changed; logically speaking, these people shouldn't have come down the mountain at all!

"But..." Da Ming wanted to argue, but Tang San interrupted him: "There are no buts. You need to arrange for people to make sure that the remaining people of the Clear Sky Sect return to the mountain gate and continue to live in seclusion before the next war begins. Also, urge the disciples to have more children and recuperate!"

There's no way around it; cultivating devout believers is not easy. Compared to the large number of casual believers in Shrek Academy, the group of devout believers in the Clear Sky Sect is much more important.

Although Tang San could use Wang Dong's body to release his divine sense and order the Haotian Sect disciples to return to the sect, there were some things that he, as the ancestor, could not say.

After all, the Haotian Sect has suffered heavy losses and most of its members are now harboring thoughts of revenge for others. If I were to step in and dispel these people's desire for revenge, these devout believers would definitely obey my orders. However, this would also damage my glorious image and make it difficult to harvest the power of faith.

After all, the hatred of having a fellow disciple killed is not so easy to suppress. If he were to order the Haotian Sect members to return to the mountain gate, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the Haotian Sect members.

Tang San cannot help the Clear Sky Sect members avenge themselves at the moment. After all, from beginning to end, he has to be wary of the damned God of Destruction taking advantage of the situation before he completes his rescue plan.

Moreover, Haotian Sect's main enemies are Sun and Moon level experts. He is hoping that these Sun and Moon level experts will kill indiscriminately on the battlefield so that he can obtain more killing intent to convert into faith power!

Of course, this group of Sun and Moon powerhouses also had a crucial role: to advance the war. He hoped that the Sun and Moon powerhouses could lead the Sun and Moon army to thoroughly deal with the Douluo Three Kingdoms and Shrek Academy, forcing them into a desperate situation so that he could carry out his rescue plan.

After all, this way, he could highlight his own worth in saving everything and reversing the situation, thus reaping a large wave of faith power. Even if the Gods convened a council afterward to punish him, he would have already gained a lot of benefits, making it a worthwhile deal.

In short, his current idea is simple: let the people of Haotian Sect suffer, and let Da Ming and Er Ming bear the blame.

Upon hearing this, Da Ming and Er Ming looked rather grim, and they remained silent.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Tang San was furious and scolded Da Ming and Er Ming for their lack of gratitude. If it weren't for him, how could these two have been resurrected and possessed the strength of a god?

Back then, Da Ming and Er Ming did indeed sacrifice themselves for him, helping him to improve his strength to a certain extent. However, the fact that he promoted these two guys to priests was a debt of gratitude that Da Ming and Er Ming could never repay in their lifetime.
