Douluo's Yun Ying

Chapter 206 Wait!
...Shrek Academy...

In Poseidon Pavilion.

With a crisp snap of fingers, Ye Rusuo's cloak fell to the ground, revealing her anxious expression. At this moment, she was pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot.

On the side, the white-haired old man was lying on a rattan lounge chair, rocking leisurely. Next to him was a solid wood table carefully carved from a thousand-year-old peach tree, with exquisite dragon and phoenix patterns on it that were lifelike.

At the same time, another old man with white hair presented a completely different picture. He was concentrating on the roast chicken in his hand and seemed indifferent to everything around him.

"Master Xuan, Pavilion Master, I think we should immediately send troops to the Star Dou Great Forest to demand those people! Instead of just sitting here in the academy and doing nothing!" After thinking it over again and again, Ye Rusuo finally spoke out what she was thinking. Her beautiful face was full of murderous intent, and it seemed that the years had never left any traces on her. The other party was still the Ye Sha who was once famous throughout the Douluo Continent.

The old man who was concentrating on eating ignored her. To Old Xuan, how to eat the roast chicken in his hand gracefully was obviously much more interesting than what the other person said.

The old man on the recliner gently waved a palm-leaf fan, and his drooping eyelids quietly opened, revealing his bright eyes. The sharpness contained in his eyes made Ye Rusuo, the "evil god" famous throughout the world, retreat.

"Rusuo, I know you care about that little guy, but everyone has their own fate. We should relax our control over them and let them grow on their own. Shrek never needs flowers in a greenhouse." The old man's tone was a little solemn, and his eyes turned to the vast sea lake outside the window. "Moreover, the situation on the mainland is no longer the same as before. What we need to cultivate is not only students, but also our future position on the mainland."

We can’t... let Shrek’s reputation of tens of thousands of years be destroyed in his hands!
Moon narrowed his eyes slightly. After being treated with the Gold of Life, his body was much better than before. As far as life span was concerned, there would be absolutely no problem for him to last another ten years.

Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of the remaining time to deal with the pressure from the Sun-Moon Empire. Even if he could not wipe out the desire for dominance of those lunatics, he should at least make life more comfortable for future generations!
Ye Rusuo bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth. The reason why her appearance remained eternally youthful had a lot to do with the soul beast she hunted - the beloved of the demon spirit: a red spider lily that had been cultivating for more than 10,000 years.

"Pavilion Master, the other party is a soul beast, not to mention the most powerful soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest. If we just leave Yun Ying alone, I'm worried..." Ye Rusuo wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Elder Xuan who had just finished eating the roast chicken: "Elder Ye, you also said that the other party is the most powerful in the Star Dou. So let me ask you, with such a huge gap in strength between the enemy and us, if the other party really insists on not letting us go, then won't Shrek be in a difficult situation? If a new round of war between humans and soul beasts is triggered at that time, who will bear the responsibility?"

"This..." Ye Rusuo fell silent. She had actually considered this situation, but this beautiful woman, whose mind was relatively immature compared to those old foxes in the Sea God Pavilion, always felt that if she didn't show some expression, it would disappoint the disciples.

After finishing a whole roasted chicken, Elder Xuan took out another one from his space ring and continued to eat. He said in a low voice, "Xiao Ye, I understand your feelings. After all, I made a big mistake back then, and it was thanks to that little guy that I felt less guilty not long ago."

"So, I can understand what you are thinking now. However, I hope you can also understand the difficulties of the academy. First, the pressure from Xingdou is too great. It will be difficult for us to find a force that can match them in a short time. After all, this is an internal problem of our academy, and those countries will not help us."

"This is true for all the big countries, not to mention the small countries that follow them. Moreover, once the Sun-Moon Empire learns of this news, it will be very unfavorable to our academy in terms of mainland public opinion!"

"But... haven't the inner courtyard disciples been complaining about the lack of suitable inspection team tasks? After three days, if Xingdou still doesn't let them go, then treat this as an emergency mobilization and send them out. Those who complete it can offset ten ordinary inspection team tasks!" Elder Xuan took a big gulp of wine, and then slammed the wine gourd heavily on the wooden table. With a crisp "crack", the round and flawless gourd bottom cracked, and the little bit of fine wine left inside spilled all over the floor. Elder Xuan: "..."

Night passes by: "..."

Moon: "..."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Ye Rusuo coughed lightly to break the deadlock. “I heard that not long ago, the Body Sect sent a few disciples to ask us at Shrek for someone. They said that their sect leader was not particularly satisfied with his current successor and planned to cast a wide net across the continent. Huo Yuhao, who had performed brilliantly in the Continental Spirit Master Competition, was also considered.”

Moon calmly waved his palm-leaf fan and snorted, "Can't the old guy be poisoned to death? It's not in line with his usual style to do such a thing! Oh, by the way, I remember our academy sent people to the Sun Moon Empire for exchange and study? Huo Yuhao was among them, right?"

“Well, and he also had an adventure in Xingdou not long ago, which shook the foundation of Xingdou’s revival. Perhaps, this is part of the reason why those soul beasts would hold on to Yunying.” Elder Xuan analyzed with a serious face. Then, his eyes were bright and his tone was unconsciously murderous. “If this is true, then Yunying is in great danger! Pavilion Master! Otherwise, I should take Shrek’s high-level combat power to negotiate with those soul beasts!”

"Be patient, Xuanzi." Moon En was still calm, with no emotion visible on his wrinkled face. Long before, when Ling Luochen was frozen into an ice cube by the Snow Empress and thrown into Shrek Academy, he had already sensed that something was wrong. So, holding on to his broken body, Moon En went to the far north alone and met the ice and snow girl who had transformed into a human body - the Snow Empress.

At that time, the shock in his heart was beyond words and he couldn't control it at all. The Snow Queen at that time had no good feelings towards humans other than Yun Ying, so the two of them started a fierce battle in the cold far north. This battle almost exhausted Moon's remaining life span - if it weren't for Yun Ying later, he would have died in the snow.

After fighting for thousands of rounds, Moon En was defeated. Xue Di knew that the other party was an elder respected by Yun Ying, so she did not kill him. After briefly summarizing her plan, she drove Moon En away.

Before leaving, Xue Di kindly warned the once powerful Dragon God Douluo that there was a terrifying existence in the depths of the Xingdou Great Forest, whose strength far exceeded the ten greatest beasts today, and that the other party was also keeping a close eye on Yun Ying. She asked Moon En to be a kind-hearted elder and not overstep his authority.

The old man, who was already a candle in the wind, was full of bitterness, but in the end, he had to admit that his time had passed. Moreover, he had never received the mercy of the gods in his entire life. Although Moon was so glorious in the past and was known as the Dragon God Douluo, in fact, there were too many beings stronger than him on the entire Douluo Star...

The higher you go, the more you realize how insignificant you are.

Moon also deeply understood this truth.
