Wuhun element periodic table, rubbing black hole in Douluo

Chapter 466 Kong Deming VS Mu En
Kong Deming stood on the high platform, and Mu En's gentle gaze fell on him. The words "Give me your answer" weighed on his heart like a huge boulder.

His gaze involuntarily turned to Xu He, who was dressed in a dark gold python robe. This former "He Caitou" and now "former Crown Prince" had a resolute expression and already possessed the air of a crown prince.

But how did it turn out like this?
In just one night, he felt like the sky was about to fall.

Kong Deming's thoughts were extremely complicated.

Moon and Shrek Academy's actions this time were by no means simply acts of chivalry.

That seemingly benevolent protection almost single-handedly saved the entire faculty and students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

He clearly remembered the undisguised chilling killing intent in the eyes of those titled Douluo from the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent not long ago.

If it weren't for Moon's intervention, this square would probably be awash in blood today, and the future of the academy's younger generation and the Sun Moon Empire would be completely extinguished.

It is no exaggeration to say that Mu En's attitude completely determined the fate of the Sun Moon Empire.

However, what is the price of this "goodwill"?
The palace was destroyed, members of the royal family died tragically, and now even Crown Prince Xu Tianran has become a prisoner.

Shrek Academy's support for Xu He's rise to power reveals their ulterior motives.

Kong Deming dedicated his life to the empire; how could he be willing to let the Sun Moon Empire become a vassal of Shrek?

But did he have a choice?
A thought flashed through his mind like lightning, making him shudder.

Xu Tianran! That rebellious son has already been damaged by the palace coup in the past, and it is impossible for him to leave any offspring!
There had been rumors about this matter within the royal family for some time, but they were quickly suppressed. He had also heard about it, but due to the Crown Prince's authority, no one dared to speak out about it, and no one had the guts. After all, the Crown Prince's methods were so cruel that even ordinary people would be terrified.

However, he is very capable and has subdued all his brothers one after another. He is now even in the period of the Crown Prince overseeing the country. This means that if Xu Tianran is the only heir, the Sun Moon Royal Family will be completely cut off in this generation!
Kong Deming suddenly looked at Xu He, his eyes filled with scrutiny and a hint of realization.

Shrek Academy's open conspiracy! This is their true, open conspiracy!
They didn't just want to interfere with imperial power; they wanted to ensure that the future of the Sun Moon Empire was in the hands of Xu He, who had a close relationship with them, because Xu He was the only hope to continue the royal bloodline!

Refuse? The consequence of refusal would be the extinction of the royal bloodline and the disintegration of the empire. This was something he could not accept under any circumstances.

Agree? Agreeing means that the Sun and Moon Royal Family will inevitably be subject to the constraints of Shrek Academy in the future.

The lesser of two evils.

Kong Deming took a deep breath, and the struggle and resentment in his heart were gradually replaced by a heavy sense of helplessness.

He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a resolute look in them.

He addressed Moon, his voice slightly hoarse but exceptionally firm: "Your Excellency Moon, I understand."

He turned to face Xu He and bowed slightly: "This old minister, Kong Deming, pays his respects to Your Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness has endured humiliation and hardship, and today you have finally restored order to the country. This is truly a blessing for the empire and a boon for all the people!"

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen, who was standing not far away, was struck dumb, and exclaimed in shock, "Teacher! You..." He simply couldn't believe his ears. How could his teacher, how could he bow to this... this suddenly appearing "former crown prince"?
He looked at Xu He and felt that the man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he could not connect him with He Caitou, who had been an exchange student at Shrek Academy for several years.

Kong Deming ignored Jing Hongchen's shock. He and Mu En exchanged a glance, and a look of understanding flashed in their eyes.

Although they didn't exchange a single word, in that instant their eyes met, the two top experts of the era had already reached a tacit understanding through their divine senses.

The sovereignty of the Sun and Moon Empire cannot be easily surrendered.

With the palace bombed and the crown prince captured, how will the people view a new emperor who ascends the throne so easily? How will the international community comment on it? Shrek Academy's intervention must also have a "reasonable" ending.

They need a show, a show for the whole world to see.

Kong Deming sighed helplessly. The royal family members were either dead or incompetent, and Xu Tianran, that rebellious son, was of no use. Now, they could only rely on Xu He.

Since the goal is to support Xu He, overthrowing the "legitimacy" of Xu Tianran's rule becomes the most urgent task.

The next moment, Kong Deming's aura suddenly erupted, and an incomparably powerful soul force surged into the sky! His hair and beard stood on end as he shouted fiercely, "Mu En! Your Shrek Academy destroyed my palace, captured my crown prince, and now you are coercing Prince Xu He, attempting to control my Sun Moon Empire! I, Kong Deming, as the empire's chief retainer, how can I tolerate your arrogance!"

A silvery-white light surged from his body, instantly condensing into a huge silver moon halo in front of him, exuding a chilling cutting intent. It was his strongest defensive soul tool, the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield!

Seeing this, Mu En smiled faintly, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes: "Mr. Kong Deming, right and wrong will be judged by public opinion. Since you insist on this, then I have no choice but to accept your superior skills!"

A gentle light quietly emanated from Mu En's body, not as violent as Kong Deming's, but carrying an unshakable holiness and majesty.

Light and silver moon, two completely different ultimate forces, silently confronted each other in the sky above the academy.

The war is about to break out!
Just then, Xue Di, who had been standing quietly to the side, vanished silently from the high platform, as if she had never been there at all.

Below the platform, Lin You watched this sudden turn of events, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He walked up to He Caitou, who had just dismounted and was about to approach him, patted him on the shoulder, and chuckled in a low voice, "Well done, Caitou, you really do look like a ruler in this python robe. When you become emperor, don't forget your brother. As for wealth and honor, just give him a few thousand catties of gold."

He Caitou, no, now we should call him Xu He.

Upon hearing this, he gave a wry smile and shook his head helplessly: "Lin You, please stop mocking me. Everything I have achieved today, everything I have gained to stand here, is thanks to your and the academy's help. I, Xu He, will never forget this kindness."

His gaze turned to the sky, where two figures had transformed into streaks of light and collided violently!
"boom--!"

A deafening roar echoed through the sky!
Moon's power of light and Kong Deming's silver moon divine light shield collided fiercely in mid-air, bursting out with dazzling light. The powerful energy aftershocks spread in all directions, causing the entire square to tremble.
