Thinking about it, the hostages released last time did indeed spread some negative information about Shrek Academy and the original Shrek Seven Devils that I provided. According to the feedback collected by the Spirit Pagoda, the reputation of Shrek Academy and the original Shrek Seven Devils has indeed been affected.

Some people even started fabricating unofficial histories about Tang San and the Hook, further amplifying the negative impact.

However, as time went by, these negative stories had less and less impact on Shrek Academy's reputation. After all, Shrek Academy's reputation was already so bad that no matter how much they stirred things up with these kinds of scandals, they couldn't make a big splash anymore. They needed to find a new breakthrough.

Huo Yuhao thought for a while and finally decided to find a breakthrough from Xuanzi, since the existence of the other party was the biggest weakness of Shrek Academy.

"I remember when I was going through Xuanzi's recent memories last time, I saw that he imprisoned Xu Sanshi. Perhaps this matter can be used to influence the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Douling Empire. If it is publicized, it can also cause Shrek Academy's reputation to decline again."

After all, Xu Sanshi's mother, Xue Lingxun, was the most beloved princess of the former Douling Emperor, and the current Douling Emperor is Xu Sanshi's maternal uncle!

Before he could delve into his memories and pinpoint that false one, he inevitably encountered other memories as well.

.......

Shrek Academy, in a dark and damp dungeon.

Xu Sanshi, whose hands and feet were bound by specially made shackles, leaned against the wall, his whole body emitting a foul odor. His eyes revealed a trace of despair. For a young master like him, being imprisoned in a dungeon for a long time undoubtedly dealt a significant blow to his spirit.

He felt that this was the first time in his life he had fallen into such a predicament.

All of this is because of Xuanzi. If he could, he would definitely take revenge on Xuanzi.

Pat-pat, a familiar sound of footsteps rang out.

Xu Sanshi knew it was mealtime, so Teacher Tang, who always obeyed Elder Xuan's orders, would bring him food.

He immediately stood up, and sure enough, the familiar figure of Teacher Tang carrying a lunchbox came into view.

"Xu Sanshi, dinner's ready. We have soul beast meat today, consider it an extra meal." Teacher Tang walked to the cell door, opened it, and familiarly put down the lunchbox.

Although Xu Sanshi was hungry, he did not immediately pick up the lunchbox. Instead, he pleaded, "Teacher Tang, I have rendered meritorious service to the academy, I have shed blood for the academy, I want to see Elder Mu! Please let me out!"

He really didn't want to stay in the dungeon any longer, so naturally he had to speak up and fight for his rights.

Teacher Tang sighed and said, "Xu Sanshi, I'm just following orders. I can't help you. For the sake of the academy's safety as Elder Xuan mentioned, you still need to stay here!"

Chapter 710 Xue Lingxun's Suspicion and Uncertainty

Xu Sanshi's eyes instantly turned red, and he roared, "I'm going to stay in the dungeon? Teacher Tang, does Elder Xuan intend to lock me up for the rest of my life?"

"I am not a traitor to the academy at all, and I have never done anything to betray the academy. I have been wronged, I am innocent! Teacher Tang, do you know what I have been thinking about in the dungeon all this time?"

Teacher Tang sighed and didn't reply.

Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Xu Sanshi gritted his teeth and paced back and forth in his cell, the shackles clanging as his accusations poured out like a machine gun: "I'm thinking, what will happen to my family if I can't get out of this dungeon?"

Right now, people outside probably suspect that I've disappeared. As time goes by, they might think I'm already dead, and then my family will be plunged into an extremely sad state!

"Teacher Tang, you also have family. Please put yourself in my shoes. If you were in my situation, wouldn't you want to be reunited with your family? Please let me out and let me see Elder Mu. As long as Elder Mu speaks, everything will be alright!"

Teacher Tang was silent for a moment, then said, "Xu Sanshi, I can understand your desire to reunite with your family, but Elder Xuan says you are a traitor. Unless you can clear your name of treason, I will never let you go. Just give up on that idea!"

After saying that, Teacher Tang left the cell and closed the cell door tightly.

The vast dungeon was filled with many cells, but they were all empty now. The only prisoner in the dungeon was Xu Sanshi.

A wave of loneliness, as if abandoned by the entire world, washed over Xu Sanshi, filling his heart. A pang of sorrow gripped him, and he slumped onto the thatched ground, his expression dejected, muttering to himself:

"Dad, Mom, Uncle... they must be very worried about me, they probably can't sleep at night."

"As for Nan Nan... I wonder if she'll worry about me because of my 'disappearance'... Nan Nan, I miss you so much."

Tears gradually welled up in Xu Sanshi's eyes.

As time passed, his hunger slightly diverted his attention. He got up and went to the lunchbox, opened it, and took out all the delicious-looking food inside.

Although he was imprisoned in the dungeon and labeled a "traitor," he was never short of food. He ate delicious meals, but they tasted like cardboard.

.......

The Spirit Empire, Spirit City.

In the palace, Princess Xue Lingxun of Douling sat in front of her dressing table, looking at her haggard face in the mirror. She sighed, and a look of sorrow settled between her brows.

"Shi'er, where are you? Your mother misses you so much. I wish I hadn't let you go to Shrek Academy. It would have been better if you had stayed in the Xuanming Sect. You would have had a family business to inherit, and your father and I would have been there to protect you."

As Xu Sanshi's mother, she was naturally extremely concerned about his disappearance.

For this reason, she even returned from the Xuanming Sect to the Douling Empire to seek her brother's help, hoping to find Xu Sanshi's whereabouts with the help of the Douling Empire.

To be honest, returning to the Douling Empire was not an easy task for her.

Although she was the late emperor's most beloved princess, and the current Douling emperor was her brother, her love affair with the young sect leader of the Xuanming Sect was strongly opposed by the entire Douling royal family.

Even Xue Lingxun's father was planning to break her up with the young master of the Xuanming Sect.

Then Xue Lingxun made a snap decision and eloped with the young sect leader of the Xuanming Sect.

This incident greatly angered her father, the emperor, and the entire royal family was quite dissatisfied with Xue Lingxun. Some even thought that Xue Lingxun's actions were a disgrace to the Douling royal family.

After all, although the Xuanming Sect is strong, it is not enough compared to the Douling Empire.

Moreover, how could a princess of a nation do something like elope without the knowledge of the royal family?

Time has passed, and the young sect leader of the Xuanming Sect has become the sect leader.

She became the sect leader's wife and gave birth to several children, of whom Xu Sanshi was the second.

The last time she returned to the Douling Empire was because her father had passed away, and as his daughter, she had to come back.

Suddenly, a male voice rang in her mind: "Xue Lingxun, do you want to know where Xu Sanshi is?"

Xue Lingxun was stunned, wondering if she had misheard. She rubbed her temples, thinking that she might be hallucinating because she was overthinking. But the male voice rang out again: "If you don't want to know, then it seems that I don't need to keep asking you."

Xue Lingxun suddenly stood up. She looked around in a panic but found nothing unusual. She tentatively asked, "I really want to know where Shi'er is now. Senior, do you know where Shi'er is?"

She knew she was grasping at straws in her desperation.

But as a mother, she couldn't let go of any opportunity to find Xu Sanshi.

"Alright, then I'll show you the way. Xu Sanshi is currently in the Shrek Academy dungeon, and he was imprisoned there personally by Xuanzi. If you want to reunite with Xu Sanshi, you should ask Shrek Academy for him." The male voice echoed in your mind again.

"How could that be! Elder Xuan would never do something so outrageous." Xue Lingxun subconsciously denied it.

She felt that the unfamiliar male voice was completely deceiving her.

In her memory, Xuanzi had indeed done many wrong things, but locking his students in the dungeon was simply too far-fetched.

"Believe it or not, that's all I have to say," the male voice said again.

Xue Lingxun was stunned for a moment, then frowned and shouted, "Zhao Gongfeng!"

The next moment, a figure in white robes burst through the door and appeared inside the hall. He went straight to Xue Lingxun and said, "Your Highness, what is it?"

He was a retainer of the Douling Empire and a titled Douluo, who was transferred by the current emperor to protect Xue Lingxun.

Xue Lingxun said, "Someone just transmitted a message to me. Look around and see if you find anything unusual?"

Zhao Gongfeng frowned: "Your Highness, I have not noticed anything unusual. If someone were to send a telepathic message to you, Your Highness, I should be able to detect it immediately."

After all, as you know, my martial soul is very special. It is best at sensing the abnormalities around me. Even when I transmit my voice, it is essentially a method mixed with soul power, which cannot escape my perception.

Unless... the sender's strength far surpasses mine; this person is extremely powerful, likely a Super Douluo!

Upon hearing this, Xue Lingxun's eyes widened in shock.

Even in the Douling Empire, the number of Super Douluo is extremely rare. Would such a person come to the Douling Imperial Palace just to tell him where Shi'er is?

Instead of doing other things in the Douling Empire? Like assassinating the emperor? Or gathering intelligence?

But what if the other party really just wanted to tell Stone about what happened in the Shrek dungeon?

Although I don't know what the other party's purpose is, now that I know this news, I naturally have to go and see for myself!

Even if there is only the slightest possibility, we cannot ignore it!

Chapter 711 Xue Lingxun Heads to Shrek Academy

After all, she hadn't seen Xu Sanshi for a long time, and her longing for her second son, Xu Sanshi, surged like a tide, unstoppable.

Even though there are certain risks and uncertainties involved in doing this, a mother's instinct is strong, and she is determined to find her child.

"Zhao Gongfeng, take me to see my imperial brother now." Xue Lingxun said earnestly.

If she were to go to Shrek Academy simply as the wife of the Xuanming Sect Master, it certainly wouldn't be enough.

After all, the Xuanming Sect was not powerful enough.

Therefore, she must go to Shrek Academy openly and legitimately as the princess of the Douling Empire.

This is something I must discuss with my elder brother, the Emperor.

Zhao Gongfeng nodded and said, "Alright."

After saying that, he took Xue Lingxun to the Douling Hall. When the emperor was not in court, he often reviewed memorials there.

Huo Yuhao stood outside the hall, quietly watching the two figures disappear into the horizon.

Through his mimicry soul skill, his appearance has become one with the air. The effect of this type of spiritual soul skill is largely related to whether one's own spiritual power is strong enough.

Given his level of spiritual power, he naturally wouldn't be discovered by the so-called Zhao Gongfeng.

Huo Yuhao did not follow to check the situation. His mental detection soul skill had already been activated, and nothing in the entire Douling Palace could be hidden from him.

Of course, his main focus now is on Xue Lingxun, in order to see whether she will go to Shrek Academy.

If the other party chooses to go to Shrek Academy, then he can head home now.

If Xue Lingxun gives up on the idea of ​​going to Shrek Academy, then he will continue to push her to make her determined to go to Shrek Academy and put her idea into action.

Inside the Battle Spirit Hall.

A middle-aged man dressed in a yellow robe, with a mustache and a heroic air about him.

He was sitting in a chair, reviewing the memorials submitted by his ministers. The rustling sound of ink on the memorials, like silkworms eating mulberry leaves, echoed faintly in the hall.

Compared to the overwhelmed Xingluo Emperor, this Douling Emperor was in a much better mental state.

After all, the Star Luo Empire lost a large amount of territory, while the Dou Ling Empire has not lost any territory so far.

Of course, in order to prevent the Sun and Moon Army from launching a surprise attack on the Douling Empire, the Douling Emperor naturally arranged for some powerful soldiers and elite legions to guard the border.
