Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 166 Frequent Reports of Robbery
Xuanzi's voice summoned back the enraged Light Dragon.

After circling around and confirming that there was no one else within a radius of 10,000 meters, Mu En immediately withdrew from his Martial Soul True Body, hunched over at a ninety-degree angle, and flashed in front of Yan Shaozhe.

"Shao Zhe! How are you?!"

"teacher"

Seeing Yan Shaozhe, who had already fainted from the pain, Mu En did not hesitate. He immediately picked up his disciple, on whom he had placed great hopes, and flew rapidly toward the Sea God Pavilion.

Seeing this, Xuanzi hurriedly followed, but unfortunately he was not good at speed, and no matter how fast he sped up, he could not catch up with Mu En in front. His injuries, which had not yet healed, seemed to have worsened.

When Xuanzi arrived at the Sea God Pavilion, he saw Cai Meier and the others waiting anxiously under the Golden Tree.

"How is Shao Zhe?!"

"Old Master Mu said that Shao Zhe had already suffered multiple internal injuries, and now that he has broken his leg and lost his soul bone, his injuries have been aggravated."

Old Master Zhuang has already gone in to treat Shao Zhe.

Cai Meier responded to Xuanzi's question with a slightly tearful voice, then continued to look in the direction of the golden tree with a worried expression.

The other elders also stood silently, their faces full of worry.

Xuanzi wanted to go in and take a look, but he was blocked outside by Mu En and the power of the Golden Tree, so he had to wait outside with the others.

Before long, Old Zhuang, covered in sweat, finally emerged from the golden tree. The regretful expression on his face made everyone's hearts tighten.

"Old Zhuang! How is Shao Zhe?!"

As Yan Shaozhe's wife, Cai Meier couldn't help but ask first, but Zhuang Lao's answer made her feel as if the sky had fallen, and she burst into tears on the spot.

"Sigh, Shao Zhe must have suffered internal injuries two or three times when he was in Xingluo City. If he had been treated properly, there wouldn't have been any major problems."

But I don't know what urgent matter this child had, that he would risk his life to rush back despite his serious injuries.

"As a result, he was ambushed by the man in black and lost a leg. Not only did he lose his soul bone, but his soul power also dropped significantly, and the internal injuries he had been suppressing also completely erupted."

If it weren't for Elder Mu's profound soul power keeping him alive, Shao Zhe would have been crippled, if not killed.

"Now, his injuries have basically stabilized, and thanks to the Golden Tree, his cultivation level has barely been maintained at level 91."

However, he was unable to fight again for a long time, and due to the loss of limbs, he could no longer continue his training.

The verdict delivered by Elder Zhuang made everyone present look extremely grim, and Cai Meier and Xian Lin'er even nearly fainted from crying.

As Qian Duoduo's face darkened, a complex feeling also arose in her heart.

Although Xuanzi was still quite old, he was still somewhat better than the other elders, at least he knew to inquire about treatment methods.

"Xiao Zhuang! Is there any good treatment method?! We've watched Shao Zhe grow up, we can't let him be ruined like this."

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhuang nodded in agreement, but his expression became somewhat troubled.

"Yes, there is, but only if we can find the soul bone that Shao Zhe lost."

"Okay! I'll go find it now!"

Before Elder Zhuang could finish speaking, the voices of Xuanzi, Cai Meier, and Xianlin'er rang out almost simultaneously, startling everyone present.

"Nonsense!"

Just as Xuanzi was about to set off, a dragon palm formed from the power of light instantly slammed him into the ground.

Mu Lao, having withdrawn his withered hand, emerged from the Sea God Pavilion, his face filled with disappointment as he looked at the irrational Xuan Zi, and angrily berated him:

"Xuanzi! Mei'er and Lin'er are being silly, and you're joining in their nonsense too?!"

"Let alone whether you know who the black-robed man who ambushed Shao Zhe is, or even if you can find him, do you think you can easily deal with his spatial abilities?!"

"But Elder Mu..."

"No buts! Let's deal with the immediate problem first! I'll figure out a way to handle Shao Zhe's matter!"

Xuanzi, who had originally wanted to struggle a bit, fell silent after hearing Mu En's decision, but also put aside her worries.

If Elder Mu intervenes, everything will definitely be fine.

The other elders, including Cai Meier and Xian Lin'er, shared the same thoughts as Xuanzi and firmly believed in Mu En's decision.

Seeing this scene, Moon sighed inwardly.

He was already on the verge of death, yet no one in Shrek Academy could take over his great responsibility. Now his disciple has suffered this calamity as well. It is truly a disaster for Shrek Academy.

In an instant, Moon's back seemed to hunch over, and his breath became increasingly heavy and dull.

"Come in, everyone. Shao Zhe has already woken up. Let's hear what he has to say." With that, Mu En walked into the Sea God Pavilion without looking back.

The other elders looked at each other, puzzled as to why this 'invincible' pillar of strength had suddenly become so dejected.

Afterwards, the group, having regained their senses, followed Xuanzi to their respective positions.

"Shao Zhe."

"Mei'er, there are more important things to do now!"

As soon as Cai Meier entered, she ran to Yan Shaozhe's side, intending to comfort her husband, but was ruthlessly stopped.

Seeing this, Xian Lin'er, who was not far away, snorted and withdrew her steps, completely unaware of Qian Duoduo's complicated expression behind her.

'Lin'er, do you really not have me in your heart?'

After everyone was seated, Moon, who was reclining on a rocking chair made of golden tree branches and meditating with his eyes closed, finally spoke:
"Shao Zhe, tell me, what exactly is it that requires you to abandon your seriously injured student and travel thousands of miles back alone?"

Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly after hearing this and stood up, leaning on the solid wood table.

Only then did everyone notice his change.

Unlike his usual gentle and elegant demeanor, Yan Shaozhe, still recovering from serious injuries, was not only pale-faced, but also had a hint of sinister malice in his eyes that was hard to hide.

"The first thing is that the Star Luo Empire unilaterally cut off most of its ties with Shrek Academy."

"what?!"

The elders exclaimed in unison, and even Mu En slightly opened his eyes and looked at Yan Shaozhe.

Xuanzi, who was acting as Mu En's mouth double, immediately asked, "Shao Zhe, what is Xu Jiawei's reason for doing this?"

Although that kid's performance in the finals was less than satisfactory, he's definitely not such a foolish person!

Immediately afterwards, Yan Shaozhe recounted everything he had seen and heard in the imperial palace treasury, as well as Xu Jiawei's final decision, word for word.

As the last word faded, the Sea God Pavilion fell into a long silence once again.

To be fair, given the severity of the losses, was Xu Jiawei's decision problematic?
No problem at all!
If Shrek were in this situation, they would most likely do the same.

However, saying it is one thing, doing it in your own life is another.

Unfortunately, no one present could find fault with Xu Jiawei, so this evil aura remained trapped in the hearts of all the elders.

After a long while, Moon's voice broke the silence of the Sea God Pavilion once again.

"Shao Zhe, there must be more than just this, right?"
This matter, while significant, shouldn't have caused you to lose your mind like this.

Based on his understanding of this disciple, he was quite certain that there must be something else, perhaps even related to Mu En himself, that made Yan Shaozhe act this way.

Yes, teacher.

"Well, tell me."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying, "Zhang Lexuan, she has defected!"

"hiss!"

This time, even Moon, who had always been quite calm, couldn't sit still.

The Limit Douluo's power suddenly erupted, his eyes widened, and an irresistible majesty burst forth from his deathly pupils.

"Shao Zhe! Do you know what you're saying?!"

However, Yan Shaozhe nodded very lightly, but it showed his inner determination.

"Shao Zhe! Tell me quickly what happened!"

At this moment, Lin Huiqun, who had been silent for a long time, noticed that something was wrong and quickly spoke up to ease the tension, giving the master and apprentice a way out.

The day after the competition ended, Zhang Lexuan disappeared from her hotel room without her noticing.

Not only did they avoid everyone's gaze and my senses, but they also took Han Ruoruo, Ling Luochen, and Ning Tian, ​​who were traveling with them, with them.

Furthermore, there were no signs of struggle or fighting in the room, indicating that Han Ruoruo and the others were most likely there voluntarily.

At this point, Yan Shaozhe paused, then continued under Mu En's increasingly gloomy expression:
"After discovering Zhang Lexuan's defection, Jiang Nannan, a disciple of the outer academy, found a letter in Zhang Lexuan's room."

It reads "

"I will avenge the bullying of my siblings and the destruction of my Zhang family in this lifetime!"
