Chapter 105: Poisoned Yet Unyielding!

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. Between the lives of her family and her own, Zhou Yi ultimately chose herself.

As long as Zhou Yi admitted to crippling Dai Huabin, she would be irreversibly at odds with the White Tiger Clan. At that time, even Fan Yu, an eighth-level Soul Engineer, would be dragged into this conflict, inevitably being forced to confront Dai Hao. This was obvious.

As for Dai Huabin, without his arms, all he had left was his soul power and the value of his White Tiger Martial Soul.

With his soul power, he would live a long life, existing as a useless person within the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. Perhaps Dai Hao would even find some women to breed with him, hoping to produce offspring with the White Tiger Martial Soul.

However, his life would forever be devoid of hope, confined to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, living a meaningless existence under the watchful eye of the White Tiger Duchess.

This was Huo Yuhao's revenge against the mother and son, making the proud Dai Huabin a useless person for the rest of his life. To him, this fate was more terrifying than death.

"Because of some misunderstandings with Huo Yuhao earlier, I came to find him after class this afternoon to talk it out. But I encountered these assassins trying to kill Huo Yuhao. I immediately protected him, but the Soul Emperor from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion was as strong as I am. We fought to a draw, and I barely won in the end."

Once she understood the situation, Zhou Yi was just as adept at crafting a story. Hearing this, Elder Xuan nodded and squatted down to search the body of the assassin, who had been burned to a crisp. Finally, he pulled out a bright silver token.

The front of the token featured a lifelike silver-white tiger, and the back bore a large "Dai" character.

"White Tiger Duke's Mansion, White Tiger Token? Very well!" Elder Xuan sneered, putting the token away. "Daring to assassinate a Shrek Academy student in Shrek City, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion will pay the price!"

As he finished speaking, Elder Xuan glanced at Zhou Yi. Sticking to the principle of doing a thorough job, he asked a female elder to help her up. Then, the senior members of the Sea God's Pavilion opened the door, intending to leave.

"Xuan Zi, are you leaving just like that?"

Du Busi's voice suddenly sounded in the room, and a vast amount of green soul power spread like an ocean, covering the entire hotel.

Elder Xuan released an earthy yellow soul power from his body, breaking through the Du Busi's soul power blockade. But neither he nor the elders of the Sea God's Pavilion had anything to say about the Du Busi's actions.

They were too embarrassed! A student of Shrek Academy had been assassinated right under their noses. It was too humiliating!

Moreover, the one being assassinated was no ordinary person but the young master of the Body Sect, Du Busi's successor. Now that Du Busi was furious, they had no grounds for complaint.

"Du Busi, this incident is Shrek Academy's fault. But I must handle these matters before giving you an explanation," Elder Xuan said.

"Xuan Zi, I don't want any explanations from you because you've given me too many over the past few days!" Du Busi said calmly. "Where's Mu En? I want to see him!"

Elder Xuan hesitated for a moment, about to speak. However, Mu En's gentle voice reached both his and Poison Immortal's ears simultaneously.

"Xuan Zi, bring Du Busi to see me. And bring that young one along, into the Sea God's Pavilion."

Though surprised, Elder Xuan would not go against Mu En's wishes. However, in his memory, no outsider had ever entered the Sea God's Pavilion.

"The Sea God's Pavilion? Why not? Xuan Zi, lead the way!"

Du Busi said coldly. Huo Yuhao exchanged a glance with him and then followed behind him.

Elder Xuan transformed into an earthy yellow light and shot towards Shrek Academy, while Du Busi, carrying Huo Yuhao, followed as a dark green light, heading to the center of the Sea God's Lake.

Entering the first floor of the Sea God's Pavilion, Huo Yuhao looked around, recognizing the extraordinary nature of the place.

"Here, there is also the aura of a god," Electrolux's voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea. "Moreover, the life aura and the power of light here are very strong."

"You're awake?" Huo Yuhao was startled by Electrolux's sudden awakening.

He had just returned to Shrek Academy recently and hadn't had time for Yao Lao to start refining the Soul Nourishing Dew. The alchemy cauldron he ordered last year was also almost delivered to Shrek City, giving him a chance to learn alchemy from Yao Lao.

"Yes, my time awake each day is short. I sensed some familiar light aura, which stimulated me to wake up," Electrolux said. "Is this the so-called Sea God's Pavilion of Shrek Academy? The Sea God... this academy indeed has a connection with a god."

Huo Yuhao smiled faintly, thinking to himself that the Sea God's aura was not the only remarkable thing here. The Golden Tree, the life core of Douluo Continent, continually absorbed nutrients and nourished itself here!

Originally, Douluo Star had its own life core shared by humans, soul beasts, and even ants and mosquitoes. But under the dual plans of Shrek Academy and Tang San, it was later taken over by Tang San's parents, acting as if it was their private property.

Shrek Academy and Tang Sect's elites enjoyed abundant resources, while ordinary students had to use their family's hard-earned money to gain access. Non-Shrek and non-Tang Sect members couldn't even dream of it.

The Golden Tree was planted by Shrek, but its roots extended through Douluo Star, with the entire planet providing nutrients. Yet, 90% of the life energy was reserved for the upper echelons of Shrek Academy.

Even significant forces like the Spirit Pagoda and War God Temple had few who could absorb Douluo Star's life energy. No wonder the Spirit Pagoda colluded with the Holy Spirit Sect to launch a god-killing fixed soul cannonball at Shrek Academy—wasn't that their own doing?

What? The soul beast clan? The soul beasts had long been driven to other planets by Shrek Academy. Even knowing that Beast God Di Tian had a chance of passing his divine tribulation on Douluo Star, they didn't allow him to return.

What home? This is Shrek Star, our territory! Shrek is simply too powerful!

As Huo Yuhao silently mocked in his heart, Elder Xuan walked to a golden tree chair on the first floor and sat down, gesturing for Du Busi to sit.

Poison Immortal sat down across from him without hesitation, both of them staring at each other in silence, creating a tense atmosphere.

At this moment, Dragon God Douluo Mu En slowly descended from the second floor of the Sea God's Pavilion. Although his figure was hunched and his appearance withered, no one dared to underestimate him.

Apart from the slumbering Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena and Beast God Di Tian, Dragon God Douluo Mu En was currently the top combatant on Douluo Continent.

When Du Busi saw Mu En, he didn't greet him as courteously as last time. Standing up with a serious expression, he said something that stunned Elder Xuan.

"I hope that during these three years of study and life, Huo Yuhao will at least retain some goodwill towards Shrek Academy. As for his safety, I swear on my Martial Soul that if Huo Yuhao faces any life-threatening danger in Shrek City, the Bright Holy Dragon lineage will end!"
