Chapter 406: Let Go and Do It (Please Subscribe)

Bei Bei nodded and said, "Ancestor Xuan, we understand. Since we've joined the Tang Sect, naturally we will do our best to ensure its development flourishes."

Meanwhile, the others had also recovered from their shock at Qian Yu's refusal to join the Tang Sect...

Mu En opened his mouth again to speak, "However, what I'm about to discuss now is another matter entirely, which is the Continental Senior Soul Master Elite Competition that will take place in two years."

Ma Xiaotao squinted her enchanting eyes and asked, "Elder Mu, given the current state of affairs between the empires, which seems to be getting worse, can we really hold the competition successfully?"

Mu En glanced at Ma Xiaotao and said slowly, "The emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire was assassinated by an unknown powerful individual not long ago; his son, Xu Tianran, should be taking over as the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire now."

"So, before they are properly prepared, they're unlikely to display their ambitions prematurely," he said.

Xuan Zi, who was on the side, seemed to have realized something and narrowed his eyes, saying, "Elder Mu, are you suggesting that by having Bei Bei and the others join the Tang Sect, you're planning...?"

Elder Mu nodded and said, "Yes!"

Apart from Xuan Zi, everyone else did not grasp what Mu En was trying to convey.

With a smile, Mu En patiently explained to everyone, "I would like the eight of you to participate in this Continental Soul Master Elite Competition under the name of the Tang Sect."

Bei Bei and the rest were shocked and exclaimed, "What??"

Having them participate in the Continental Soul Master Elite Competition under the name of the Tang Sect, what would become of Shrek Academy then?

With talents like Tang Ya and Ma Xiaotao, who would certainly reach Soul Douluo within the next two years, they were indispensable main players for Shrek Academy!

Without them, it would be much more difficult for the Inner Court team to achieve a good standing at the Continental Senior Soul Master Elite Competition!!!

Mu En sighed and said, "This is what I owe to the Tang Sect, I guess it will serve as an explanation. As for Shrek Academy, don't worry; I have someone else in mind."

Elder Xuan suddenly realized what he meant and exclaimed, "Elder Mu, do you mean to let Qian Yu lead Shrek Academy's team in the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition??"

Mu En nodded and said, "Exactly, if my guess is not wrong, even if Qian Yu doesn't break through to become a Title Douluo in two years, he should at least come close, enough to secure a good standing for Shrek Academy."

Xuan Zi truly knew him well, always able to guess his thoughts.

Hearing this explanation, understanding dawned on everyone's faces.

With two teams, the odds of winning the championship were both very high, and it didn't matter which side would ultimately win it.

Unable to help himself, Bei Bei frowned and said, "But Ancestor Xuan, if we do that, there's a high chance our two teams will encounter each other." Mu En said indifferently, "That will require you to adapt flexibly. Sometimes, losing does not mean defeat."

....

Qian Yu, who had left the Sea God's Pavilion, looked up at the moon in the sky that shone with a bright light and sighed silently...

Suddenly, the image of Juzi came to mind, and he whispered to himself, "It's time to go see Juzi."

Since joining the Holy Spirit Cult, Qian Yu had not visited Juzi until now...

The next moment, he unleashed his Angel of Death Martial Soul, and eight golden soul rings slowly rose beneath his feet...

The Third Soul Ring lit up, the third soul skill, Nether Space!

A massive grey-white vortex slowly emerged, leading straight to the Sun-Moon Empire Imperial Palace...

Qian Yu stepped slowly into it...

...

Inside the Sun-Moon Empire Imperial Palace...

1 Two guards on duty outside Xu Tianran's room suddenly noticed the appearance of a grey-white vortex...

One of them exclaimed in shock, "Quick, look! What is that??!"

The other soldier said in terror, "Ghosts, it's ghosts!!!"

Under their stares, the figure of Qian Yu slowly walked out of the vortex...

When the guard realized that a person was emerging, he was about to shout, "Sta..."

In a flash, a wild wind howled to life, blowing past them, and the pupils of the two soldiers dilated as they collapsed to the ground...

.Upon closer inspection, one would see that each of their necks now bore a crimson scar...

Afterward, Qian Yu, with an indifferent gaze, briefly glanced at them, stepped over their bodies, and headed towards Xu Tianran's room...

At the same time, the two corpses emitted a golden glow and slowly disintegrated away...

Qian Yu stretched out his hand and slowly pushed open the room's door, revealing Juzi, her back to him, sitting by the table.

She was dressed in a silver-lit Fleet Admiral's armor, exuding a persuasive leadership aura.

With her back towards Qian Yu, Juzi, hearing the sound of the door opening, spoke with ice-cold words, "Who is it?"

"Juzi, it's me."

Upon hearing this familiar voice, Juzi's delicate body trembled violently...

She quickly turned around, her gaze intently fixed on Qian Yu, her eyes inevitably reddening slightly...

Seeing the redness at the corners of Juzi's eyes, Qian Yu walked over to her, full of confusion...

Who could have known that Juzi would suddenly stand up, run towards Qian Yu, and tightly embrace him...

Feeling the warm fragrance of the delicate figure in his arms, Qian Yu involuntarily wrapped his arms around her...

He whispered in her ear, "Juzi, what happened?"

Juzi couldn't help but choke up, saying, "Nothing much, I'm just a little overwhelmed from not seeing you for so long."

During this time, because of what the Qianyu Puppet had said earlier, Juzi had always mistakenly thought something had happened to Qian Yu...

Though she longed to speak her mind, she held back...

Qian Yu's eyebrows quirked, feeling that Juzi might be holding back something she wanted to say, but he didn't press the issue...

"Is that so?"

After releasing Qian Yu, Juzi wiped the moist corners of her eyes and smiled, "Yes, it's your fault for not coming back to see me."

The next moment, she noticed she was wearing her armor and blushed, "Qian Yu, let me change my clothes first."

Qian Yu shook his head, "No need to change, the armor suits you well, adding a dashing and vibrant air to your aura."

Juzi paused, then nodded, "Alright."

Suddenly, a figure hurried in—it was none other than Xu Tianran!

When he looked up and saw it was Qian Yu, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master... Master."

Upon seeing the disappearance of two soldiers he had stationed outside the room, he had feared something had gone wrong, which is why he had rushed in.

Qian Yu glanced at Xu Tianran, remaining silent...

Then he closed the room's door, and the three of them sat down by the table...

Qian Yu turned to Xu Tianran and asked, "How is the Sun-Moon Empire doing now?"

Xu Tianran replied respectfully, "Reporting to the master, with Lady Juzi's presence, we have nearly seized complete control of the Sun-Moon Empire!"

Qian Yu expressed his surprise, "Oh? Have you not encountered any obstacles like the royal household?"

Xu Tianran hesitated, unsure of whether to speak, his gaze shifting towards Juzi, and he faltered, "This... "

Juzi compressed her lips, lowered her head, and said, "I had anyone who posed a threat of resistance or obstruction killed in secret."

By doing such a ruthless act, she wondered whether even Qian Yu would start to see her differently?

After all, it was a great departure from the way she had presented herself to him,

Qian Yu looked at Juzi, who lowered her head, and lightly pinched her, smiling faintly, "Juzi, well done!"

Juzi's eyes sparkled at his words, "Qian Yu, you... you don't blame me?"

It wasn't just the troublesome people she had dealt with; most of them were innocent!

Qian Yu stared intently into Juzi's eyes and said earnestly, "Why would I blame you? Since you wish to destroy the Xingluo Empire, all these actions were necessary."

Overcome with emotion, Juzi looked up at Qian Yu and murmured, "Qian Yu..."

Qian Yu ruffled her hair, "Don't think too much; just go ahead with what you need to do, I'm here for you."

Juzi nodded firmly, her eyes quietly glinting with a slight coldness...

"I understand."
