Douluo Continent: When Huo Yuhao Becomes the Lord of the End

Chapter 163 A thief stole the biggest fruit
"Xuanzu."

This title surprised Wang Dongning and the others for a moment.

Senior Beibei is actually the great-grandson of the Sea God Pavilion Master, something they had never known before.

Mu En sighed, "Alas, I know that you have always wanted to revive the Tang Clan with that little girl from the Tang Clan and restore its glory from ten thousand years ago."

"However, human strength has its limits. The decline of the Tang Clan is an inevitable trend, beyond human control."

"Ten thousand years ago, Tang San founded the Tang Sect, which led to the academy's ten thousand years of glory. Now that you have joined the Tang Sect, I will help you one last time, which can be considered as the academy helping the Tang Sect."

"."

That was well said.

After all, Shrek Academy didn't intervene when the Tang Sect was weakened, nor did it intervene when the Iron Blood Sect replaced the Tang Sect.

They even watched helplessly as the Tang Clan weakened and perished!
Now that the Shrek Academy's leader is about to die, he claims he wants to help the Tang Sect revive, which is truly...
Of course, among everyone present, only Ning Tian noticed something amiss.

This Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy doesn't seem so selfless after all.

They say they're helping the Tang Clan, but in reality, it's all just for Bei Bei's great-grandson. Helping the Tang Clan is just empty talk.

Sure enough, Moon pulled Bebe in front of him and passed on his last inheritance to Bebe.

“You are my only bloodline. In you, I see the inheritance of the bloodline of light. My child, do not waste your talent in the future.”

"You must strive to become stronger and carry forward the blue lightning tyrannosaurus rex within you."

It's all my fault for being so indulgent back then. With Bei Bei's great-great-grandson's talent, if I had kept him by my side back then and prevented him from contacting that girl from the Tang Clan, he would probably be qualified to inherit my mantle now.

But it's too late to say anything now.

Mu En not only helped Bei Bei stabilize her bloodline, but he also passed on his own dragon core to Bei Bei, which can be regarded as his last legacy.

Without Huo Yuhao, Mu En naturally couldn't pass on his life's research and experience. Those self-created soul skills, apart from Bei Bei learning the Overlord Dragon Domain, were all recorded and preserved in the Sea God Pavilion's library, just like the previous Sea God Pavilion masters.

After Mu En finished arranging everything, the Shrek Seven Devils took the unconscious Bei Bei downstairs, leaving only Xuan Zi, Zhang Lexuan, and the others in the room.

Although Xuanzi had been confined before, the situation was different today, and he was allowed to come out. Moreover, all of Mu En's previous punishments were nullified.

"Ah~"

With a sigh, Mu En felt distressed just looking at Xuanzi. If he had a choice, he wouldn't want Xuanzi to inherit the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master.

But clearly, he had no choice. Yan Shaozhe was not strong enough and was too indecisive. He was not only not decisive enough, but also lacked the right temperament.

Making him the head of the Sea God Pavilion would not only fail to win over the people, but could also lead Shrek Academy to an even more dangerous situation.

As for Xuanzi, although this old man is useless and extremely stupid, in terms of strength alone, as long as he stays calm and doesn't cause unnecessary trouble, he can still protect Shrek Academy and keep it peaceful.

Moreover, he did have ways to control this.

"From this day forward, Le Xuan will be the successor of the Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy. If Le Xuan reaches level 95 and no level 10 Soul Master appears in the academy, then Le Xuan will assume the position of Sea God Pavilion Master."

Xuanzi didn't dare utter a single word. He himself knew that he was only able to temporarily assume the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master because of his strength, despite having made so many mistakes.

Moreover, he wasn't good at sitting in the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master for long, so it was only natural that Elder Mu had made such an arrangement. Besides, he also felt guilty towards Zhang Lexuan.

then
Of course, when he inherits the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master, he will be in charge of everything. This idea is very subtle, and even Xuanzi himself is not aware of it deep down.

Thus, under Mu En's arrangement, Xuan Zi became the new head of the Sea God Pavilion, while Zhang Lexuan was designated as the successor of the next generation.

This brings us to Mu En's brilliant idea. After all, Zhang Lexuan was Bei Bei's childhood sweetheart, and although Bei Bei was beyond redemption, he still had Zhang Lexuan by his side.

When Zhang Lexuan becomes the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, she will also be able to help Beibei improve and pass on the Holy Dragon of Light of her lineage.

He has done right by Shrek Academy and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus lineage.

Mu En felt he had reached his limit, so he gave Yan Shaozhe some more instructions, mostly about Ma Xiaotao, Qian Duoduo, and Xian Lin'er, granting the two from the Soul Guidance Department a great deal of power.

The reason was that he was worried that after his death, Yan Shaozhe, a disciple of the Martial Soul system, would cause trouble for the Soul Guidance Device.

The group left the Sea God Pavilion and waited obediently outside. At this time, only Mu En and Zhang Lexuan were inside the Sea God Pavilion. Looking at Zhang Lexuan's sad and sorrowful expression, Mu En couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. He considered himself to have lived an upright life, but there were only two things that he had always kept in mind, almost becoming knots in his heart.

One is Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao from back then, and the other is about Zhang Lexuan.

"Le Xuan, I have one last request of you."

Zhang Lexuan knelt beside Mu En and nodded hurriedly.

“Ancestor, please say what you want, I will agree to anything you say, please rest for a while, okay?”

Moon looked up at the golden tree, and the turbidity in his eyes suddenly became clear, and even his appearance began to change dramatically.

Without letting Zhang Lexuan speak, Mu En remained remarkably calm.

"Le Xuan, if war breaks out on the continent in the future, and Shrek Academy is powerless to help, then we should blockade Shrek City, declare that Shrek Academy will no longer interfere in the affairs of the continent, and maintain absolute neutrality."

"Just like those reclusive sects, this move will cause Shrek Academy to fade from the continent's view and lose its title as the continent's number one academy, but it is the best way."

"Shrek should not perish along with the Three Kingdoms."

His idea was good, after all, Shrek Academy is just an academy.

Regardless of who wins or loses on the mainland, the demand for education remains. Although doing so will cause Shrek to lose most of its voice, those in power will probably not continue to pursue Shrek's troubles.

But that's obviously impossible. Shrek Academy's position isn't irreplaceable. If the original Douluo Three Kingdoms had won, that would have been fine, since Shrek Academy has cultivated a large number of mid-to-high-level Soul Masters, and a large portion of them speak in favor of Shrek Academy.

But if the ultimate winners are the Sun and Moon, then Shrek Academy won't have many options: either complete submission or total annihilation.

After all, the war between Shrek Academy and the Sun and Moon, which brought together the continent's top experts four thousand years ago, is still fresh in our minds. Both the Sun and Moon have written this event into their history books, which shows how much they hate it.

Oh, you say you're not playing anymore and you want to watch the two sides fight, and help whoever wins? Can't you find out?

Shrek Academy has lost its innate advantages and is incomparable to a reclusive sect like the Body Sect.

"Ancestor, I promise you, I promise you everything, you must get better, okay?"

Mu En patted Zhang Lexuan's forehead, his face full of exhaustion.

"I will not truly die. The souls of all the Shrek Academy leaders after their deaths will merge with the Golden Tree, and their life's cultivation will be used to nourish the tree, increasing its energy concentration and providing a top-notch simulated cultivation environment for the inner disciples."

"Although I don't know if I will still be conscious by then, my remnant soul will watch over the academy, protect the academy, and watch you little guys grow up."

"."

Mu En just didn't want Zhang Lexuan to be too sad, but the latter had already taken his words to heart.

It's a golden ancient tree.
Nourishing the Golden Tree is the ultimate destiny of the Shrek Pavilion Master, which is essentially to sacrifice himself to activate the Golden Tree's protective power.

Each generation of Sea God Pavilion Masters sacrificed their own chance of reincarnation in order to pave the way for the growth of their descendants, maintain the academy's hegemonic status on the continent, and at the cost of eternal silence, ensure the prosperity of Shrek Academy for generations to come.

But no one knows that the sacrifices of generation after generation of Sea God Pavilion masters have only resulted in the growth and expansion of a certain thief within the Golden Ancient Tree.

Just as Mu En had made final arrangements for Zhang Lexuan, he finally faced the last moments of his life.

A dazzling golden light erupted from his body, transforming into a giant golden dragon that soared above the Shrek Sea God Pavilion, hovering above the ancient golden tree on Sea God Island, its radiant energy instantly covering the island.

At this moment, the ancient golden tree also burst forth with dazzling golden light, and a golden pillar of light rose up, absorbing Mu En's life's cultivation and soul.

The energy concentration of the ancient golden tree has increased significantly, and the protective barrier it generates has become much stronger.

"Mr. Mu!!"

Outside, everyone was overcome with grief. The towering pillar of the Sea God Pavilion was gone. What would become of Shrek Academy?

Just as mentioned before, no one knew that at the very moment Mu En nourished the Golden Tree with his life's cultivation and soul, a thief hiding inside stole the largest portion of the fruit.

The Golden Tree could only watch helplessly as this unfolded, unable to do anything about it.
