Chapter 99 The Destructive Power, Shaking the Sea God's Pavilion_2

```

"Ah, this..."

Wang Dong found himself unable to come up with a retort.

"It's just that your illness isn't congenital, but rather acquired."

"What do you mean?"

"I suspect someone has cast a curse on you, preventing you from using soul tools."

"A curse, how is that possible!"

Shock filled Wang Dong's eyes. "Who would dare go against the Hao Tian..."

But before he could finish, he quickly changed his tune.

"How could my sect have enemies?"

Enemies?

Qin Xiao could tell that Wang Dong believed the Hao Tian Clan was invincible and couldn't possibly have enemies.

But was Tang San an enemy?

Hehe, you'd never guess, it's your old man who betrayed you...

"I don't know what backing your sect has, but even Shrek Academy has enemies. Who can claim invincibility? Who dares to say they are unbeatable?"

Of course, Qin Xiao wouldn't reveal the truth of the matter and just spouted nonsense here.

The goal was just to make Wang Dong believe what he said.

And sure enough.

As Qin Xiao finished speaking, indeed, Wang Dong's expression changed again and again.

Thinking about it this way, it was very possible.

"Then what should I do to rid myself of this damn curse?"

He seemed to be gritting his teeth as he spoke.

"It's simple, you just need to suppress the power of the curse."

"Is that simple?"

Wang Dong was first taken aback, then frowned and said, "The power behind my sect is formidable. If a hidden enemy really cursed me, not even the experts within Shrek Academy might be able to lift it."

Wang Dong expressed his doubt towards Qin Xiao's words.

"Soul Master methods obviously won't work, but using Soul Master methods isn't that difficult. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Having said that, Qin Xiao stopped looking at Wang Dong, picked up the books on the table, put them back in their place, then said to Meng Hongchen, "Meng, I'm going upstairs to check something."

By then, Meng Hongchen was already lost in the sea of knowledge and just nodded her head when she heard Qin Xiao.

"Wait."

Seeing Qin Xiao about to leave, Wang Dong immediately stopped him.

Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow and asked coldly, "What? You don't believe me, do you?"

Wang Dong pursed his lips, and asked with a heavy voice, "What should I do?"

Qin Xiao stretched out three fingers and said, "It's very simple."

Wang Dong asked in confusion, "You actually need me to do three things?"

Qin Xiao shook his head. "You're overthinking it, I mean three hundred thousand golden soul coins."

Wang Dong: "..."

Is it just for three hundred thousand golden soul coins?

Isn't that a bit... cheap?

Seeing the change in Wang Dong's eyes, Qin Xiao immediately understood what was going on in Wang Dong's mind. "If you think it's cheap, I have no objections to you giving me an extra two hundred thousand golden soul coins."

Wang Dong: "Do you think I'm an idiot? Three hundred thousand golden soul coins, just three hundred thousand. Once agreed upon, you can't go back on your word."

Wang Dong briskly pulled out three Black Cards and handed them to Qin Xiao.

Each had a credit limit of one hundred thousand golden soul coins.

Given Wang Dong's status as someone who called Niu Tian and Titan his fathers, he was destined not to lack money.

"You're quite straightforward."

Qin Xiao didn't refuse the offer.

Money was not important, it was all just a setup for advancing his plan.

"Now that you have the money, you should do something for me, right?"

Wang Dong, eager for a resolution, asked.

He was desperate to get rid of this damn curse.

Qin Xiao planned to leave Wang Dong hanging a bit. "Wait for it, three days from now. Come back to the library and wait for me."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong's pupils shrank abruptly. "I have to wait another three days?"

Qin Xiao glanced at Wang Dong indifferently. "Do you think making a soul tool is an easy task? Moreover, to meet your needs, it's a very troublesome soul tool to create, with even higher difficulty. Of course, I need some time. If you don't trust me, go find someone else. After all, I have told you the solution."

Qin Xiao wasn't someone to indulge children, he immediately used a tactical retreat to advance on Wang Dong.

Seeing this, panic flashed across Wang Dong's eyes.

Apart from Qin Xiao, he really didn't know who else to turn to for help.

```

"Three days it is then; I can wait for you,"

As he spoke, his tone grew somewhat pleading, "Help me out."

"My biggest weakness is my kind heart. I can't stand to see others suffer. So let's go with the time I mentioned before," Qin Xiao dropped these words and left the place, heading straight for the second floor.

Wang Dong left the library with a nervous heart.

He was incredibly eager for what would come after the three days...

...

Nighttime fell.

In Qin Xiao's room, Meng Hongchen curiously asked, "Uncle Master, why have you started making a First-Class Soul Guide?"

She stared non-stop at the soul guide pendant in Qin Xiao's hand.

No, to be exact, it was only a pendant with an Energy Storage Array, not even qualifying as a First-Class Soul Guide.

Qin Xiao laughed and said, "Hehe, someone paid three hundred thousand golden soul coins to have me custom-make a substandard soul tool; do you think I wouldn't do it?"

"What? Three hundred thousand golden soul coins for such a soul guide?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

Qin Xiao certainly didn't look like he was joking, and Meng Hongchen gasped, "Sss, I'd like to know who has so much money to burn and would be such a fool."

"You've seen him before, that guy from first class called Wang Dong, remember him?"

"You mean that guy from the library during the day, the one who was like a mummy? Didn't you knock some sense out of him?" Meng Hongchen recalled.

However, at the library, she had been focused on the books and hadn't paid any attention to what Qin Xiao and Wang Dong had been discussing.

Qin Xiao shrugged, "Perhaps."

Meng Hongchen was stunned for a moment before leaving at Qin Xiao's request.

When the room was left with only Qin Xiao inside, his expression grew severe.

Of course, it would not be easy to break Tang San's curse.

It was Divine King's Power, and Qin Xiao's current strength indeed found it difficult to do so.

Even if he paid a certain price, he could manage, but it would be meaningless.

In doing so, it could very likely shift Tang San's attention onto himself.

Therefore, Qin Xiao changed his approach. It wasn't time to confront Tang San head-on, but he could disrupt him.

As long as he used his destructive power to disrupt Tang San's judgment, or send Tang San false signals, that would suffice.

Building upfront and tunneling in secret, by the time Tang San realized something was wrong, Wang Dong might already have achieved a great deal on the path of soul tools.

Qin Xiao believed that by then, Tang San would surely be very surprised, wouldn't he?

A slight cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a pitch-black glow appeared in the palm of his hand, quickly injecting into the pendant he was holding.

Gradually, a black crystal the size of a grain of rice, formed within the pendant.

This was the materialization of Divine Power.

However.

At that very moment, Qin Xiao's gaze turned toward the window, only to see a golden light surging into the sky from the core area of Shrek, piercing the clouds.

Qin Xiao's brows furrowed, "Dragon God Douluo Mu En is indeed powerful, but he is only level 99 and still incomplete; he shouldn't have detected my presence, right?"

"Wait, there's something familiar in this aura..."

Qin Xiao's frown gradually relaxed, his eyes filled with contemplation.

Suddenly, he considered a possibility.

"Could it be that Mu En has now merged with the Gold Tree? Otherwise, he would not possess such a strong sense of perception and would also be unable to emit such a powerful breath."

"If that's the case, then I must make good use of this opportunity."

The more Qin Xiao thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

...

Elsewhere.

The powerhouses within Shrek Academy were alarmed.

"This is bad!"

In the Dean's office, Yan Shaozhe immediately put aside his work and turned into a golden streak of light, rushing toward Sea God's Pavilion.

On his way, he encountered the couple Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er, both looking grave.

"Shaozhe, do you know what's going on, why there's such a commotion from Sea God's Pavilion?"

Xian Lin'er asked in a serious tone.

Yan Shaozhe slowly shook his head, "I'm not sure, it seems to be a sudden incident."

Qian Duoduo spoke gloomily, "Stop guessing, we'll know everything once we get to Sea God's Pavilion."

Saying this, he flew despondently toward Sea God's Pavilion.

Before long, the silhouette of Sea God's Pavilion became clear in the eyes of the three of them.

At the same time, they clearly saw the startled expressions of the many Elders from the Pavilion.

Apart from Elder Zhuang and Elder Song, even Elder Lin, who controlled the Treasure Pavilion, and Elder Chang Gong, who was in charge of the Shrek Animal Fighting Arena, had arrived.

This was a sign of big trouble!
