"An opportunity?" The white-robed youth asked with some curiosity, "Who are they?"
Gou Luanshi hurriedly introduced them to the youth, "Your Highness, these few are my classmates from Shrek Academy. The one in the lead is precisely the great-grandson of His Excellency the Dragon God Douluo."
The white-robed youth's interest was clearly ignited. "The descendant of old Master Mu?"
As he spoke, he cast his gaze towards Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Tang Wutong and the others. Especially when it had stopped on Tang Wutong's face, his pupils immediately lit up.
The expressions of the few were a little unnatural, but they still nodded at the white-robed youth. Gou Luanshi had told him that Elder Ancestor Xuan was in the Sun Moon Empire. Now to have led the few of them to have an audience with this great person who was clearly a prince, it was unknown what his deep meaning was.
"Yes," a trace of sorrow was immediately revealed on Gou Luanshi's face. "Shrek has been destroyed. We are heartbroken and are determined to rebuild Shrek and to avenge ourselves on the Demon King, Huo Yuhao."
The white-robed youth nodded and sighed. "I am the same. In my younger years, my greatest dream was to sit in a classroom at Shrek Academy, to study and grow stronger together with my good friends."
"What Master Mu means is that he hopes to obtain Your Highness's help to rebuild Shrek Academy," Gou Luanshi explained respectfully. "If possible, in the future, the academy will stand in the territory of the Sun Moon Empire."
It could be clearly seen that the white-robed youth's entire body had shaken. What Shrek Academy meant, he was all too clear. If he could control this academy and have the experts of the Sea God Pavilion be used by him...
"In that case, then let's go and visit old Master Mu together," the white-robed youth said, nodding.
Gou Luanshi quickly walked behind the white-robed youth and, with a light sound of a wheel pushing, pushed him out.
The white-robed youth was sitting in a wheelchair. His two legs were almost gone from the roots. The hem of his trousers was empty. And his two hands had also been replaced with soul tool mechanical arms from the elbows.
His four limbs were all crippled!
Absolutely do not look down on him as a disabled person. He was the current First Prince, Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, Xu Tianran, the first in line of succession of the Sun Moon Empire.
In the original novel, after Ju Zi's parents had died, she had been wandering outside and had run into Xu Tianran. At that time, Xu Tianran was not yet disabled. He had taken her in and had cultivated her to enter the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy to study.
But this time, Ju Zi had been taken back to the Illustrious Virtue Hall by Jing Hongchen early on. He had naturally not met Ju Zi. It might be very difficult for the two of them to have any intersection again. The future Empress God of War was out of the question.
Back then, when Xu Tianran had been attacked, without Ju Zi to protect him, the two stabs that had originally been blocked by Ju Zi had been blocked by him with his own hands. The blow of that attack on Xu Tianran had been exceptionally great. No one could become his confidant anymore. As for Gou Luanshi, Xu Tianran had on the contrary taken a fancy to his deep schemes. For Gou Luanshi's sinister and unscrupulous nature, he had always been very appreciative.
Xu Tianran's position in the imperial family of the Sun Moon Empire had originally been as solid as a rock. To succeed the throne had been almost a sure thing. But after that attack, he had lost his two hands and two legs and had become a disabled person. This had made his status drop a lot. In any case, for the emperor of a country to be disabled, the impact on the country would undoubtedly be considerably great.
However, Xu Tianran had immediately shown his iron-fisted side. He had forcibly endured his injuries and had, with a thunderous means, suppressed the voices of doubt. He had even found out the true culprit behind the scenes who had plotted against him, one of his many brothers. No one knew how Xu Tianran had done it. His brother had in the end been lingchi'd in his own sleeping chamber. The sleeping chamber had completely turned a blood color.
From then on, no one had dared to question Xu Tianran's disability problem head-on. And his position as Crown Prince had also been considered to have been preserved.
In these few recent years, the body of the current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire had not been well and had been bedridden all year round. So the few of Xu Tianran's qualified brothers had begun to stir again. The matter of his disability had also then been brought up again.
This time, Xu Tianran had appeared very calm and had not even had any movement all along. It was just that at present, absolutely no one dared to ignore his existence. He was still the number one in line of succession of the current Sun Moon Empire—
Subsequently, Bei Bei and the few had seen the Mu En who had almost recovered in the depths of the Crown Prince's palace.
The Dragon God Douluo, Mu En, after being heavily injured, had been brought to the Sun Moon Empire by Gou Luanshi's group. What even Bei Bei didn't know was that his own Elder Ancestor had long had a connection with the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire.
The occurrence of the great war in the future was inevitable. The rejuvenated Mu En had realized this. In recent years, he had no small number of times infiltrated the Sun Moon Empire to peek at the research progress of soul tools. The destruction of Shrek had directly led him to no longer be obsessed with staying in the academy and working behind closed doors. On the contrary, he had chosen to throw himself into this most competitive empire on this continent.
The current him was paranoidly thinking that the world was boring to the extreme. It would be best if it were destroyed. He wanted to use the hands of the Sun Moon Empire to launch the "world's most top-tier war." Mu En believed that to pull the power-holders of the major empires on the continent, who were born as nobles and were indulging in comfort and happiness, to the battlefield was equality and freedom. Only war could decide the value of humanity!
...
More than a month had already passed since the time of the agreement with Huo Yuhao. Although Huo Yuhao's partners were extremely at ease with his safety, they still couldn't help but begin to miss him.
"Yuhao must have been delayed by something he had to do."
This was a sentence that Ju Zi often used to comfort everyone. But even she couldn't help but begin to send out manpower to search for the whereabouts of the Holy Spirit Cult.
Evil soul masters were all madmen with extreme personalities. For Huo Yuhao to want to borrow their power was no different from asking a tiger for its skin.
However, even Shrek, which had once been full of experts, could not find the main camp of the Holy Spirit Cult. What could they, a few students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, do?
To this, Xie Huanyue had proposed a suggestion, and that was to wait for Huo Yuhao for a year. A year later, if Huo Yuhao still hadn't returned, he and a few of his partners who were not good at soul tool learning and research would split up and set off to find Huo Yuhao's whereabouts.
And within this one year, they had to improve their own strength as much as possible. At the very least, they had to ensure that when they were reunited with Huo Yuhao in the future, they would be able to truly help him.
To wait for Huo Yuhao for a year was their trust in him.
To set off to find Huo Yuhao a year later was on the contrary a worry for his situation.
Thus, everyone had begun to strive to improve themselves, training hard day and night, working hard to improve themselves.
At this time, it was already a cold winter. Goose-feather-like snow was falling one after another, deeply hiding everyone's longing for Huo Yuhao.
Ju Zi was leaning against the side of the bed in the soul tool laboratory, looking at the flying snow outside the window in a daze. Her peerlessly beautiful, pretty face was reflected on the frozen window. The watery pupils revealed an endless longing.
Yuhao, where on earth are you?
...
In the depths of the Holy Spirit's great hall, Huo Yuhao and Feng Ling were being intimate day after day. The two were on the verge of becoming each other's shape.
"Gah hah..."
Feng Ling's beautiful pupils were hazy. Her body was madly writhing below. She was continuously squeezing Huo Yuhao's self-recovering life energy. Compared to a month ago, she looked a full twenty years younger.
Huo Yuhao, on the other hand, was in much more pain. Every bit of soul power and life primordial power he had recovered in this one month had, under Feng Ling's torment, been consumed completely. The room full of the Ten Thousand People Drunk had also greatly restricted his spiritual power, making him wish he were dead.
Feng Ling held him tightly. Her fragrant lips had locked his voice. Her soft cartilage had broken through, pouring in the phoenix saliva that was full of the Death God's Demonic Puppet's factor, and then from below, had taken away the essence of his life.
If not for the fact that she had already reached an age where she could no longer give birth, otherwise, after this one month, she would surely have been able to add a descendant to the White Tiger's lineage.
