Chapter 151 Xuanzi: Is Liu Yuan the Number One Soul Master in Douluo Continent? Who Consists of That?
Xu Tianran harbored deep resentment towards Liu Yuan.
Xu Tianran was unaware that since Liu Yuan arrived, he had become increasingly neglected.
The mere fact that Liu Yuan destroyed the Holy Spirit Cult filled Xu Tianran with resentment.
After all, within the entire Sun Moon Empire, Xu Tianran is probably the nobleman who least wants the Holy Spirit Cult to be destroyed.
Because he had already planned to cooperate with the Holy Spirit Cult, he would find an opportunity to work from within and without, and secretly poison the Sun and Moon Emperor.
In this way, he could rightfully inherit the throne.
After that, the Holy Spirit Cult worked for him, while he provided the Holy Spirit Cult with a constant stream of resentment, resulting in a win-win situation for both parties.
Unfortunately, Liu Yuan ruined all of this.
Therefore, whenever Liu Yuan is mentioned, Xu Tianran's heart is filled with extremely strong resentment.
It was precisely because of his deep cunning that he was able to keep all these resentments hidden.
But deep down, he truly wished Liu Yuan would die sooner.
So at this moment, after hearing Kong Deming's words, Xu Tianran immediately stood up to sow discord.
What he didn't expect was that his very first words immediately provoked the serious dissatisfaction of the Sun and Moon Emperor on the side.
"Shut up!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, you can expect to be put in solitary confinement!"
Although Xu Tianran is his son, Liu Yuan is clearly much more important in the eyes of the current Emperor of the Sun and Moon.
So upon hearing Xu Tianran's words, his expression immediately changed, and he quickly stopped Xu Tianran's actions.
"Teacher Liu Yuan has made outstanding contributions to our Sun Moon Empire. As a prince, what have you done for our Sun Moon Empire?"
"If you continue to speak recklessly in the future, I will strip you of your princely status."
"Get out of here right now!"
The Sun and Moon Emperor was clearly very angry, hence his extremely stern tone.
After hearing the Sun and Moon Emperor's lies, Xu Tianran did feel extremely angry and humiliated.
But what could he do when he was just a mere prince? Moreover, the Holy Spirit Cult was gone, and Xu Tianran had no confidence at all. So, although he felt extremely humiliated after being scolded by the Sun and Moon Emperor, he dared not say anything and could only leave in a sorry state.
Kong Deming, on the other hand, remained silent, as this was a matter between the Sun and Moon Emperor and Xu Tianran, and it was inconvenient for him to say more.
He remained silent throughout, and only after Xu Tianran left did he ask the question that concerned him most: "So... Your Majesty, what do you intend to do?"
After a brief moment of thought, the Sun and Moon Emperor replied directly to Kong Deming, "What else can we do but go along with Teacher Liu Yuan's wishes?"
"Does this mean I should break ties with him?"
The Sun and Moon Emperor exhaled and continued, "Actually, what he said makes a lot of sense. Moreover, our Sun and Moon Empire is currently in a state of great prosperity, so in my opinion, there is indeed no particular rush to launch a war."
Upon hearing this, Kong Deming nodded to the Emperor, saying, "Your Majesty is wise!"
That was indeed what he thought. Putting aside his conversation with Liu Yuan, just considering the previous incident with the Holy Spirit Sect, Kong Deming had clearly seen just how powerful Liu Yuan was, so he was unwilling to be his enemy under any circumstances.
In other words, the current Sun and Moon Emperor is able to think things through. If the Sun and Moon Emperor were not, then Kong Deming would definitely have to give him a good talking-to.
"It's getting late, so this old minister shall take his leave."
Having received the answer he sought from the Sun and Moon Emperor, Kong Deming had no intention of lingering any longer.
He quickly bowed to the Emperor of the Sun and Moon, and then left.
On the other side...
Shrek Academy.
The people at Shrek Academy had no idea that so many things had happened during this time.
They are still making preparations for Moon's funeral.
However, the funeral preparations are almost complete.
They don't need to do many things themselves.
Therefore, tonight Xuanzi summoned all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion to the Sea God Pavilion for a meeting.
As the saying goes, a new broom sweeps clean.
In particular, the conflict between Xuanzi and Liu Yuan was very deep, and with the Devouring God fanning the flames from the side, Xuanzi was even more eager to achieve results immediately.
Therefore, at this moment, Xuanzi directly stated his attitude during the meeting.
"Elders, I believe you all heard what Elder Mu said before his death."
"He hopes we can revive Shrek Academy, so we absolutely cannot let him down."
However, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion could only sigh repeatedly after hearing Xuanzi's words.
If they could, why wouldn't they want a revival?
After all, they had always been the bosses, but now they had suddenly become the second-in-command, which made them all feel extremely uncomfortable.
Therefore, many of them said, "That's what they say, but putting it into practice is just too difficult!"
Xuanzi, however, said confidently, "Difficult? What's so difficult about it?"
"Everyone, let me ask you, why has the Sun Moon Royal Academy risen to prominence in the past few years?"
A voice rang out from an elder of the Sea God Pavilion: "Is that even a question? Isn't it all because of Liu Yuan?"
Xuanzi's laughter immediately rang out: "That's right, it's because of Liu Yuan!"
"If it weren't for this troublemaker, the Sun Moon Royal Academy and even the Sun Moon Empire would still be the same as before, and would not be able to threaten our Shrek Academy and our Douluo Continent at all."
"So he's the culprit behind all of this!"
Another elder from the Sea God Pavilion spoke up: "But what can we do? Liu Yuan's strength is too great; he can even be said to be the number one Soul Master on the Douluo Continent right now. We can't do anything about him!"
Xuanzi scoffed dismissively, "The number one Soul Master? Who's the one who acknowledges that?"
"He's worthy of being the number one Soul Master?"
The elders of the Sea God Pavilion all showed doubt on their faces. Although Xuanzi had said before that he had obtained the inheritance of the gods, his other hand was cut off by Liu Yuan. They still felt that everything that happened that day was still vivid in their minds. So, it was indeed somewhat unbelievable that Xuanzi was saying such a thing now.
This made all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion look at him with strange expressions.
