Yuanen Yehui's beautiful eyes, filled with hesitation, looked towards Xu Sheng and said blankly, "Teacher Xu... I... I just killed someone..."
Xu Sheng nodded and replied softly, "Yes, you killed someone, but it was an evil Soul Master you killed. You don't need to feel psychologically burdened!"
Although he said that, he knew that shaking off the shadow of murder was not something that could be done in just a few days!
Yuanen Yehui pursed her lips, lowered her head, and stopped speaking, as if she was trying hard to convince herself…
At that moment, Wu Changkong spoke up, "Teacher Xu, what are you doing here? Could it be that there is some problem?"
Shen Yi said with a hint of sourness in his voice, "Yeah, Xu Sheng, you secretly brought Yuanen Yehui to the auction house, what are you planning to do?"
Even though he knew Xu Sheng and Yuanen Yehui couldn't possibly do anything inappropriate, the thought that he hadn't gone to the auction house alone with Xu Sheng still irked him somewhat!
Xu Sheng looked at Yuanen Yehui and smiled, "It's nothing, just getting something she needed through the auction."
Wu Changkong looked meaningfully at Xu Sheng and said, "I see."
Perhaps, it was Yuanen Yehui who took the initiative to ask Xu Sheng for something...
While they were talking, those inner court students from Shrek Academy were all staring at Xu Sheng with eyes shining brightly, whispering among themselves, "Teacher Xu is so powerful, able to kill so many evil Soul Masters by himself!"
"What are you talking about, Teacher Xu is an Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion! Although it's just at the Soul Sage realm, his real strength can't possibly be weak!"
"Yeah, I heard that Elder Tang and the others were attacked, and it was Teacher Xu who stepped in to resolve the crisis!"
"I didn't believe it before, but among so many evil Soul Masters, there were Title Douluo Level powerhouses. Teacher Xu was able to handle them; his strength must be extraordinary!"
"But this auction house is filled with corpses everywhere, what should we do?"
"What to do? Naturally, we must destroy them all! Since they dared to make a move on our Shrek Academy's territory, they should be prepared to have no corpses left!"
Cai Yue'er snapped back to reality, glanced at the auction house situation, and commanded, "All students, spread out quickly and dissolve the evil Soul Masters' corpses as fast as possible!"
Some evil Soul Masters could use their bodies to resurrect even after death, due to their Martial Souls, so this was also to nip the problem in the bud!
In an instant, all the inner court students shouted, "Yes, Academy President Cai!"
After these words fell, they released their Martial Souls one after another, utilizing their soul skills to quickly cleanse the surroundings...
...
Not long after, although the auction house still looked somewhat grim, the pungent smell of blood had significantly lessened!
Only then did Cai Yue'er turn towards Xu Sheng and say, "Teacher Xu, the situation here has been resolved. Are you going to return to the Academy with us?"
Wu Changkong and Shen Yi also looked at him with questioning eyes...
Xu Sheng shook his head and rejected the offer, "There's no need. This child has killed for the first time, and it will probably be very hard for her to accept. I need to give her some guidance."
After giving Yuanen Yehui a deep look, Cai Yue'er nodded slightly and said, "I see, then we'll leave first."
Subsequently, she led the inner court students away...
Meanwhile, those Soul Masters hiding in concealed places began to emerge from their covers...
Suddenly, the auction house became noisy once again...
"Thank goodness for Shrek Academy, otherwise, we would all have become wandering souls under those evil Soul Masters!"
"Humph, Shrek Academy actually reduced their patrolling area; otherwise, how could the evil Soul Masters have the audacity to launch an attack here!"
"That's right, Shrek Academy is clearly afraid of the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"Don't spout nonsense. Shrek Academy has always had the duty of exterminating evil Soul Masters; how could they possibly fear the Holy Spirit Cult?"
"I'm afraid Shrek Academy must have their reasons. We just need to trust them!"
Faced with these words, Xu Sheng remained unmoved and, turning to Yuanen Yehui who had regained some sense of consciousness, asked with concern, "Yehui, how do you feel now?"
Yuanen Yehui took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Teacher Xu, I am fine now."
Xu Sheng pressed on, "Considering what happened today, how about we reschedule our trip to acquire your Soul Ring for another day?"
To go absorb a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring with such a mindset, the risk would be much greater!
Yet, Yuanen Yehui firmly replied, "No, Teacher Xu, I am fine now, please take me to get my Soul Ring."
Although the incident of killing someone had a considerable impact on her, it did not hinder her determination to absorb the hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring!
Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment before replying seriously, "Is that so... then as you wish, but before that, be prepared for the possibility of your body exploding and dying!"
He would not lend a hand to Yuanen Yehui; whether she could successfully absorb the hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring depended on her own will!
If she held on, her strength would increase geometrically!
If she did not, that would mean certain death!
There was no room for regret!!!
...
Sea God's Pavilion!
Yun Ming's profound eyes lit up as he calmly inquired, "Elder Cai, what's the situation like?"
Cai Yue'er chimed in from the side, "By the time we arrived, Elder Xu had already dealt with all the evil Soul Masters! But... the number of persecuted Soul Masters was not small!"
"At least, there were over a hundred people!"
Turbid World asked in confusion, "Teacher Xu? What was he doing at the auction?"
Tang Yinmeng raised an eyebrow, "Who knows, but the safe extermination of those evil Soul Masters is certainly a good thing!"
Long Yeyue narrowed her eyes and said, "I fear that those evil Soul Masters daring to act near the academy must not be acting recklessly, but are likely instructed by the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Lan Muzi wholeheartedly agreed, "Very possible! Ever since we reduced our patrol range, those evil Soul Masters have become more rampant. If this continues, I'm afraid even the status of Sea God's Pavilion might be affected!"
Feng Wu Yu said coldly, "In my opinion, we should increase our patrol range, just like before! Let those people from the Holy Spirit Cult see that we at Shrek Academy are not afraid of them!"
Elder Cai immediately rejected the idea, "Absolutely not! Doing so would put the academy in great danger! Don't forget that the Holy Spirit Cult has powerhouses comparable to the Pavilion Master!"
If the Holy Spirit Cult were to launch an attack when the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion were away from the academy, as they did last time, the situation would be perilous!
Feng Wu Yu slammed the table in frustration and retorted, "Elder Cai, the academy is important, but we can't just let the Holy Spirit Cult run wild because of this threat, can we? Wouldn't that be betraying our original purpose?!"
The atmosphere in Sea God's Pavilion suddenly became somber, and Ya Li turned her gaze towards Yun Ming at the main seat...
"Pavilion Master, what do you think we should do?"
Yun Ming, seeing everyone's eyes fixed on him, took a deep breath and then slowly uttered a few words...
After hearing this, all the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion widened their eyes, displaying astonished expressions...
They had not expected Yun Ming to say such a thing!
