Chapter 108 Mu En Falls_2

"Sacrificing myself to protect you, no matter how I calculate it, it's not a loss," Mu En said, followed by a light chuckle.

"Old Mu..."

Xuan Zi was deeply moved.

"Alright, there's no need to mourn for me. With my current state, dying sooner means liberation sooner. But from now on, the burden on your shoulders will be heavier."

"Old Mu, rest assured, if anyone wants to destroy Shrek Academy, they'll have to step over my dead body."

At that moment, Xuan Zi underwent a tremendous change in his mindset; his previous rebellious thoughts had vanished. Now, he desired to devote himself wholeheartedly to Shrek.

"Good, I believe in you."

Mu En's voice was filled with contentment.

Using his own dying breath to painfully tie Xuan Zi down with a chain like a tethered dog, he felt it was worth it.

"But I must remind you of one thing: you can no longer take the position of Hall Master of the Sea God's Pavilion, nor can you become the leader of the Shrek Monitoring Group. Because your current identity is too sensitive, you can only work behind the scenes, silently supporting Shao Zhe."

Upon hearing Mu En's words, Xuan Zi didn't hesitate and nodded solemnly. "Old Mu, rest assured, I will fully dedicate myself to supporting Shao Zhe. If he tells me to go east, I'll go east; if he tells me to go west, I'll go west. I will not be as willful as before."

In that moment, Xuan Zi was like a child who had suddenly grown up.

"There's one more thing, concerning the source of the destructive power. Several days ago, I sensed an extremely strong force of destruction erupting within the academy. I suspected there was an evil Soul Master lurking inside, but unfortunately, that person was too cunning, and I never detected his presence again..."

"So, is it possible that the evil Soul Master made his move in secret today?"

"Quite possible. So, you must remember to be wary of the evil Soul Master."

"Teacher, we will remember!"

Yan Shao Zhe answered solemnly.

Xuan Zi nodded seriously. "Old Mu, rest assured, from today onwards, I am utterly opposed to gambling, poison, and evil Soul Masters."

Mu En smiled with relief. "Good, good, good, I believe in you guys..."

However, as his voice faded, the golden glow on the Gold Tree was receding at an astonishing rate.

This also signified the rapidly vanishing life force of the Gold Tree.

That trace of destructive power that Qin Xiao wielded seemed very weak, but it was, after all, Divine Power containing rules and laws. How could a bodiless Ultimate Douluo dispel it?

Even if he was Mu En, it was impossible.

So, he could only guide that destructive power into the Gold Tree, using the tree's life force to consume the destructive power, and this is what saved them from catastrophe.

Under the watchful eyes of Xuan Zi, Yan Shao Zhe, and the others, visible cracks appeared on the ancient tree. Then, with continuous cracking sounds, the Sea God's Pavilion, built around the Gold Tree, began to collapse.

"Elder Xuan!"

"Teacher!"

In front of the Sea God's Pavilion, everyone cried out mournfully.

They could all feel it—Shrek's legendary figure, Dragon God Douluo Mu En, was gradually fading from this world.

"Goodbye!"

Suddenly, Mu En's gentle voice resounded in everyone's ears, followed by a beam of light shooting straight into the sky. From then on, there was no trace of Mu En's presence left between heaven and earth.

"Goodbye."

Tears filled everyone's faces.

They knew that the backbone of Shrek Academy, the elder who had led them, had departed from this world forever.

...

"Hey, that's not right. Such a powerful fluctuation… Could it be Old Mu En has caught up?"

Miles away, Poison Not Dead felt a powerful soul power fluctuation behind him.

He instinctively turned back, only to see a golden pillar of light shooting into the sky.

"Mu En!"

Poison Not Dead's pupils shrank sharply, his heart trembling as he muttered to himself, wondering if Old Mu En could be ascending to godhood?

But soon, he slapped himself.

What was he thinking?

Could someone without a physical body have the possibility of becoming a god?

He didn't believe it.

He watched in place, and after a moment, the golden pillar of light gradually disappeared...

At the same time, he could no longer sense Mu En's presence.

```

"Mu En, dead?"

"I wondered why he suddenly retreated!"

Poison Not Dead appeared utterly astonished. "I killed Mu En?"

But he felt it was unreal...

"Forget it, no matter what the truth of the matter is, this is still good news.

Big Brother, do you see this? Your spirit in heaven can now rest in peace.

As for the details and what happened, I will return to the Heavenly Soul Empire and let the emperor investigate. I don't have the time to bother with it."

Poison Not Dead said this, casting his gaze into the distance.

The place he looked at was not the Heavenly Soul Empire, but the Sun-Moon Empire.

He still remembered that a disciple within the sect mentioned a promising seedling suffering at the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy; as the Sect Master of the Body Sect, it was his responsibility and duty to bring this disciple back.

Besides, the Xingluo Empire had offered hundreds of millions of golden soul coins for the snatching of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast embryo.

Since he had to make a trip to the Sun-Moon Empire anyway, Poison Not Dead decided to kill two birds with one stone and take care of this matter as well.

...

"This is bad, I sense that a powerful being has fallen within Shrek. It's very likely The Hall Master mentioned—the strongest at Shrek Academy, Dragon God Douluo Mu En!"

In Qin Xiao's dormitory, Elder Ma and Meng Hongchen hadn't even managed to leave when they were drawn by a sudden anomaly.

His face was filled with shock.

"Shrek is truly troubled these days. Trouble follows trouble—the place of conflict is no place to stay."

With Mu En's fall, Elder Ma was even more determined to leave.

He felt that this was not the end, and that some other unexpected issue might arise.

"Elder Ma, should we now return to the academy?"

Meng Hongchen looked up and asked Elder Ma.

"You guys wait here for me, and don't go anywhere. I'm going to negotiate with Shrek Academy right away to leave Shrek City as soon as possible. Only when I return to the Sun-Moon Empire can I have peace of mind."

Leaving those words behind, Elder Ma hurriedly left.

The room was left with only Qin Xiao and Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen looked around and said to Qin Xiao, "Uncle Master, Elder Ma said to wait here for him until he comes back. It's not that I don't want to leave..."

Qin Xiao could see right through his little scheme and smiled slightly, "Do as you please, just like at home, don't be constrained."

After finishing speaking, he casually laid down on the bed.

In that moment, he finally felt relaxed.

But before he could rest for long, there was a knock at the door again.

"Did Elder Ma return so quickly?"

Meng Hongchen muttered in surprise and went to the door. Opening the door, she saw a handsome man with pink short hair—Wang Dong standing outside.

The moment she saw him, Meng Hongchen frowned and said with displeasure, "Why is it you, this annoying guy."

She couldn't help but wonder inwardly—had the news that they were leaving Shrek spread, and Wang Dong, still bearing a grudge for being defeated by Qin Xiao, had come to settle the score?

"Is Qin Xiao here?"

Wang Dong glanced at the door number; it should be the right one.

That's it; this guy was here for revenge! Meng Hongchen said darkly, "If you have issues, take it up with me."

Wang Dong: "..."

Noticing Meng Hongchen's hostility, he couldn't help but smile wryly, "You misunderstand. I didn't come to cause trouble, but to thank Qin Xiao."

Thank?

Meng Hongchen was somewhat dazed.

She suddenly didn't quite understand what Wang Dong was getting at.

"Meng, let me handle this."

Qin Xiao also came to the door at this point, looking directly at Wang Dong, "It seems you have used those soul tools?"

"Mmm, I've used them, and they're all great; I'm very satisfied."

Wang Dong nodded vigorously, then sincerely bowed deeply to Qin Xiao, "Thank you. Without you, I would probably have never been able to use a soul tool in my life."

Meng Hongchen was stunned—this guy had actually come to thank Uncle Master?

Qin Xiao nodded slightly and said indifferently, "If you want to thank me, then you should cherish the hard-won opportunity and work to enhance the way of the soul tool."
