Chapter 2997: The Arrival of Gu Yue_1

Liang Xiaoyu didn't choose to accept it, but objected, "Sect Master, I think you should reconsider this, abruptly removing Hall Master Guo's position may lead to the dissatisfaction of the Douluo Hall disciples!"

"Moreover, he has made no small contribution to Tang Sect, both emotionally and rationally, it shouldn't be done this way!"

However, Zang Xin did not change his decision, but said in a deep voice, "Hall Master Liang, do you think I haven't considered these things?"

"It is precisely because of this that I must strip him of his position as Hall Master!"

Today's Guo Xiaoxu, whether in terms of ability or strength, is far from what he was in his prime!

Moreover, the impact of Zhao Chong's death has only added to the pressure of being a Hall Master!!

Liang Xiaoyu was stunned, feeling the determination in his predecessor's words…

In other words, no matter how much he pleaded, he could not change this decision!

He clenched his teeth and said, "Sect Master, is there really no other way?"

Zang Xin replied with an undeniable look in his eyes, "Hall Master Liang, I know it's hard for you to accept, but this is the best choice for Hall Master Guo!!"

Liang Xiaoyu clenched his fists, "I understand, Sect Master, I will do as you ask"

"But just to be clear, my heart still only acknowledges Guo Xiaoxu as the master of Douluo Hall!!"

Zang Xin expressed understanding, "Of course, I think so too!"

Upon hearing this, his expression relaxed slightly…

But quickly, as if he thought of something, he asked, "But after removing Hall Master Guo from his position, who will then take over as the master of Douluo Hall?"

Zang Xin answered subconsciously, "Naturally, we would select the strongest person from within Douluo Hall to assume the position!"

Liang Xiaoyu shook his head and explained, "If that's the case, you may be disappointed, Sect Master. The strongest disciple in the Douluo Hall is only at the Soul Douluo level, appointing them as the Hall Master might not be convincing enough!"

Zang Xin couldn't help but prop up his chin, "If that's the case, it is indeed a bit troublesome…"

But in the next second, the former eagerly suggested, "Sect Master, how about this, let one of the Shrek Seven Monsters take over the position, they are Tang Sect disciples and are sufficiently strong!"

Zang Xin also showed a few traces of delight, but it disappeared in an instant…

"That's a good idea, but I don't think they would agree to it!"

The corners of Liang Xiaoyu's mouth lifted slightly, "Sect Master, it may not be necessarily so, don't forget Wulin is an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion and also the Tang Sect Master, given their relationship, the possibility of success is not small!"

"It might even greatly enhance the trust between Tang Sect and Shrek Academy!!"

Zang Xin just looked at him, word for word, "Hall Master Liang, since you are confident, then leave this matter to you to handle. It just so happens that we won't need to send Tang Sect disciples, you can go personally to Shrek Academy and ask about the situation!"

This statement made Liang Xiaoyu feel extremely uneasy…

He couldn't help but suspect, "Sect Master... did you plan this all along?"

He always felt like he had been set up!

Ever since they discussed removing Guo Xiaoxu from the position of the Douluo Hall Master, he had been led by the nose!

Zang Xin casually closed his eyes, replying leisurely, "Hall Master Liang jests, wasn't that your suggestion? I merely accepted it!"

Liang Xiaoyu, having realized what happened, couldn't hold back any longer and burst out angrily, "Sect Master Zang, you're truly despicable!!"

...

Meanwhile!

Shrek Academy!!

Xie Xie, who was on patrol, suddenly became very serious...

He said gravely, "Hm?? A familiar aura is approaching the academy, it seems to be..."

Thinking of this, he instantly burst into extreme speed and appeared outside the academy gates…

In his sight indeed materialized the figure of Gu Yuena…

And following her were Di Tian and Bi Ji, the two ferocious beasts…

After swallowing hard, Xie Xie couldn't help but call out, "Gu… Gu Yue??"

Gu Yuena waved her hand and said with a soft tone, "Xie Xie, it must have been a long time since we last saw each other, right?"

Eagerly, Xie Xie replied, "Yes, it has been a long time indeed, you…"

But quickly, it was as if he realized something, and his gaze sharpened once again…

"Gu Yue, weren't you staying in the Spirit Pagoda? Why are you here at the academy? And additionally, bringing Di Tian and Bi Ji!!"

If it were any regular encounter, he would definitely catch up with her properly!

But, definitely not now!

Gu Yuena, as if seeing through his thoughts, quietly reassured, "Don't worry, Xie Xie, we're here with no other intention, just to enter the academy and discuss some matters with the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion!"

Xie Xie frowned and decisively rejected the request…

"Sorry, Gu Yue, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion are very busy right now. I'm afraid they don't have time to meet with you!"

Gu Yuena was momentarily stunned, then a bitter smile emerged on her face…

"You've changed over the years as well…"

The Xie Xie of the past would certainly not have refused so decisively!

Without any change in his expression, Xie Xie replied, "Everyone changes with time, haven't you as well, Gu Yue?"

What is the real purpose of Gu Yue's visit here??

Is it really to discuss matters with the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion? Or, is it an opportunity to make a move against the academy??

Whichever it was, he couldn't let them enter the academy too easily!

Thinking this, he murmured a few words into the communication device at his ear…

It could be vaguely seen that with the blazing white brilliance within the academy, everything was enveloped in a soul barrier…

Gu Yuena just glanced and casually responded, "Yes, I've changed too. Otherwise, I might as well be a member of the Sea God Pavilion now…"

Has the academy been notified to activate the Defensive Soul Guidance Device?

Indeed, the relationship between the Spirit Pagoda that she now ruled and Shrek Academy couldn't be considered good!

It wouldn't be an overstatement to call them enemies!

Xie Xie didn't waver because of this; his eyes were still very determined…

"Maybe so, but if you've come just to catch up with me, let's choose another day!"

Gu Yuena didn't get angry, still speaking in an even tone, "Xie Xie, the reason you won't let me into the academy, is it because the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion are in discussions with people from the Xingluo Empire, the federation?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie's eyes narrowed right away, and the Light Dragon Dagger and Dark Dragon Dagger appeared in his hands…

Indeed, Gu Yue's sudden visit to the academy was not with a simple purpose!!

Gu Yuena's gaze also underwent a subtle change, "Xie Xie, are you intending to fight me?"

To be honest, she did not wish to confront her former companion!

Xie Xie showed no sign of backing down, and said coldly, "Sorry, Gu Yue, if you insist on entering the academy, then I will have no choice but to make a move!!"

With those words, he channeled Soul Power into the Light and Dark Dragon Dagger, and a threatening aura began to spread…
