Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 833 Rejection!

"Xiao Dong, the person next to you should be Xuanzi from Shrek Academy, right?"

With a quick glance and a smile, Da Ming quickly guessed the identity of the level 98 Super Douluo before him.

With his divine power, discerning this person's cultivation level was not difficult for him.

Wang Dong nodded, his eyes widening in surprise, and said:

"Grandpa, this is indeed Elder Xuan. Have you met Elder Xuan before?"

“Of course not.” Da Ming shook his head. “I just sensed his cultivation level and saw that he was a one-armed old man. In addition, he followed you back to Haotian Sect, so I naturally deduced his identity.”

Erming, who was standing to the side, nodded and said:

"Me too. It wasn't difficult for me to recognize him as Xuanzi. But, Xiaodong, why did you suddenly decide to bring Xuanzi back to the Haotian Sect?"

“Second Father, this wasn’t a sudden whim. In fact, I brought Elder Xuan to Haotian Sect to ask for help.” Wang Dong sighed helplessly, his gaze unconsciously shifting to Xuanzi.

Following her gaze, Da Ming and Er Ming's eyes also fixed on Xuan Zi.

"So, Xuanzi, you want the Haotian Sect to intervene again and help Shrek Academy fight against the Sun Moon Empire?" Da Ming's gaze was like a sharp sword, directly piercing through Xuanzi's intentions.

In recent days, he also received some news about the battlefield situation and learned that Shrek Academy had suffered an unprecedented and humiliating defeat.

Considering that Wang Dong brought the other party to the Haotian Sect, it's not surprising that he could see through Xuanzi's intentions.

Xuanzi knew that the current situation was very unfavorable for Shrek Academy, so he did not adopt any arrogant attitude, but instead said with a smile:

"As expected of the Grand Master, you have keen insight. I have come here to ask the Clear Sky Sect to lend a helping hand to Shrek Academy once again in order to resist the evil Sun Moon Empire!"
"If you and the Second Sect Master can agree to this, I, as the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, promise that Shrek Academy will never forget the kindness of the Clear Sky Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Da Ming and Er Ming frowned slightly, as if they were considering whether to support Shrek Academy.

Xuanzi didn't dare to breathe loudly, staring intently at the two of them. For him, if he could get the support of Haotian Sect, it would mean that he had made certain preparations for the war two and a half years later.

This is a matter of life and death for Shrek Academy, so he naturally had to show a good attitude.

The two communicated secretly via telepathy.

"Brother, last time we sent people to help Shrek Academy, we suffered heavy losses. If we help Shrek Academy again this time, we might destroy the Clear Sky Sect."

Neither you nor I can arbitrarily descend the mountain to interfere in worldly affairs. Given the current overall strength of the Sun Moon Empire, if these people were to descend the mountain, they would be simply going to their deaths.

“You’re right. Moreover, Tang San already issued an order last time, requiring us to summon the Haotian Sect members who went to support Shrek Academy back to the sect.”

We don't need to risk upsetting Tang San by doing something as thankless as supporting Shrek Academy. After all, if these devout believers suffer heavy casualties again, Tang San might be provoked and might try to test Xiao Qi again, ultimately causing her to suffer!

For both Da Ming and Er Ming, their primary task in the lower realm was to protect Xiao Qi, after all, she was Xiao Wu's child. Everything else had to take a backseat to this.

After a brief exchange, the two...

Da Ming looked at Xuan Zi, shook his head, and refused with a reason: "Please go back. The Haotian Sect suffered considerable losses last time it supported Shrek Academy. Under no circumstances should it support Shrek Academy again."

Xuanzi immediately became anxious and hurriedly said:
"Grand Master, the Sun Moon Empire is ambitious and determined to devour the Douluo Continent. If Shrek Academy is truly destroyed, I'm afraid the Clear Sky Sect will also face the threat of the Sun Moon Empire!"

Da Ming glanced at Xuan Zi and said indifferently:
"You don't need to worry about that. If the army really does arrive here day and night, I will make them know what it means to regret it too late!"

In fact, he did not consider the Sun Moon Empire to be a threat at all.

After all, he and Erming were powerful priests, and in terms of strength alone, they would naturally crush Limit Douluo.

Even if the Sun Moon Empire attacks, he and Erming are confident that they can defeat the Sun Moon army.

The rules of the divine realm do say that gods cannot interfere in the mortal world, but they do not say that they cannot fight back. Although he and Erming cannot leave the Haotian Sect under normal circumstances, if the Sun and Moon Army attacks, there is no reason not to fight back.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi immediately became anxious, but he couldn't curse, so he could only put on a pained expression and express concern in his voice:
"Grand Master, you mustn't! The Sun Moon Empire is far more powerful than you imagine. If you underestimate it, you will surely suffer a great loss!"
Now that we have an opportunity to fight against the Sun and Moon Army together, why not cooperate with Shrek Academy?

Wang Dong, unable to hold back any longer, began to offer his advice:
"Big Uncle, Second Uncle, please help the academy!"

She really didn't want to see the academy completely destroyed by the Sun and Moon Army two and a half years later. After all, it was the place where she had studied.

Da Ming and Er Ming can refuse Xuan Zi's request.

However, they must carefully consider Wang Dong's request before deciding whether to grant it.

Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged glances and continued to communicate telepathically.

After a moment, Da Ming sighed and said...

“Xiao Dong, you haven’t been back to Haotian Sect for a long time, so you don’t know much about the situation in the sect. To be honest, the sect has a very bad impression of Shrek Academy.”

After all, some of the elders and disciples you knew died on the battlefield in order to support Shrek Academy against the Sun Moon Empire.

Those who survived lost some relatives and friends, and naturally harbored resentment towards Xuanzi. Shrek Academy's punishment of Xuanzi was merely ineffective, further fueling everyone's anger towards Shrek Academy.

"Can you bear to let the survivors suppress their grief and anger and continue to help Shrek Academy? No matter what, as the Grand Master, I cannot issue such an order!"

Upon hearing these words, Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, his head lowered little by little, and his expression became extremely complicated.

Having experienced many things, she is no longer the child she once was; she has grown up and naturally learned to put herself in others' shoes.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, with only the barely audible breathing of everyone being heard.

“Grandfather, you’re right. I should indeed consider the feelings of the others in the sect. After all, people are all made of flesh and blood. I shouldn’t ask the sect to help the academy, because that would be like rubbing salt into the wounds of many people in the sect.”

Upon hearing this, Da Ming's face showed relief; he thought to himself that he had finally managed to fool them.

"However, my good friends and some senior students are now in the hands of the Sun Moon Empire. No matter what, I must rescue them!"
