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

Chapter 222 The hearts of the people are scattered, where to go?
Douluo Star.

Shrek.

The people from the Sun Moon Sect and the Body Sect had all withdrawn by this time, leaving behind only severed limbs and remains, as well as countless forces that had been wiped out and were dependent on Shrek City.

The surviving Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, and Elder Zhuang, along with several other elders whose strength did not reach the level of a Super Douluo, have already entered the Star Luo and Heavenly Soul Realms in batches.

Only now did they understand why, even though Shrek Academy had already spread the news, the three kingdoms and other major powers had not taken any action.

The Sun and Moon Soul Master Legion launched a unilateral attack on the border armies of Heavenly Soul and Star Luo. Under such circumstances, it would be good enough if they didn't request Shrek Academy's support, let alone have the opportunity to support Shrek Academy.

They finally realized that this was an organized and premeditated operation aimed at eliminating Shrek Academy, with influence extending to the Body Sect, the Sun and Moon Hall of Virtue, and the Sun and Moon Royal Family.

They should have realized this long ago. With the establishment of the Three Kingdoms Axis Alliance, the Sun and Moon faction had been relatively quiet, clearly preparing a major move.

As the conflict escalated, war soon became an open secret, and it was impossible for the government not to take action.

Shrek Academy, which unilaterally gathered dozens of top experts four thousand years ago to thwart the ambitions of the Sun and Moon faction and crush their ideal of unifying the continent, was naturally their first target.

Shrek's millennia-long glory and arrogance prevented them from realizing their predicament. Before this immense disaster struck, they never imagined that any force would dare to attack Shrek, especially one that was determined to destroy them.

Shrek Academy is no longer the Shrek Academy it once was. Shrek Academy is now at its weakest point in a thousand years. The timing of the Sun Moon Sect and the Body Sect's move was perfect, directly hitting Shrek Academy's Achilles' heel.

Yan Shaozhe was reviewing the situation, while Cai Meier was trying her best to comfort Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, the remaining Shrek Academy students.

Elder Zhuang led a group of Shrek disciples to infiltrate the Heavenly Soul Sect. They planned to separate their powers to preserve the spark of Shrek's legacy.

Coming back to his senses from the defeat and fear, Yan Shaozhe looked at the surviving Shrek disciples in front of him and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, ​​Bei Bei, Zhang Lexuan, Ling Luochen, and a few other surviving inner court disciples were the only ones left; they couldn't possibly take so many little ones with them to safety.

As for the other elders and the few disciples who survived outside Shrek Academy, he was unaware that the group had been completely disrupted.

The only option is to establish contact once things have stabilized, and then gradually organize our forces.

People like He Caitou, Wu Ming, and Nanmen Yun'er all died in the aftermath of that battle. He Caitou, in particular, was with Fan Yu at the time and directly withstood the damage of a level nine soul-guided bomb, leaving not even ashes behind.

Frustration, unprecedented frustration and confusion filled everyone's hearts.

"Dean, can we... ever go back to Shrek Academy?"

Ning Tian asked the first question. Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were still in shock, their eyes glazed over, and they hadn't recovered yet.

Back to Shrek?
Yan Shaozhe and Zhang Lexuan both wore bitter smiles.

Shrek Academy is gone, and the Golden Tree was taken away by those guys using some unknown means. What can these remnants do?

Although it's hard to admit, in a sense, Shrek Academy can already be declared destroyed. And who can guarantee that those guys won't leave behind some tricks in Shrek City to wipe them out in one fell swoop? Going back is definitely necessary; it's Shrek's home, the spiritual symbol of all Shrek people, but not now.

"Let's rest for a bit first. Next, we'll head to Xingluo City and apply for asylum from the Xingluo royal family."

This is a last resort. The Holy Spirit Cult is still active in the Three Kingdoms region. Given Shrek Academy's relationship with the Holy Spirit Cult, if those madmen find out, their last remaining hope will be completely extinguished.

Therefore, the best solution is to remain subordinate to the royal families of the Three Kingdoms for a long period of time. They also have powerful figures with titles, and the Three Kingdoms will not refuse.

Ning Tian's expression changed slightly. Although the dean did not say it explicitly, she knew that returning to Shrek Academy was no longer an option.

In fact, during their escape, many sects and nobles had already begun heading towards Shrek Academy, not because they were truly prepared to share the hardships with Shrek, but simply because some of their juniors and disciples were studying at Shrek.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School was no exception. Ning Tian looked into the distance and knew clearly that everything she had done before was useless. Her plan to recruit talented disciples without backgrounds into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School through Shrek had completely failed.

Since that's the case, she has no reason to share hardships with Shrek Academy; it's time for her to return to her sect.

"Dean, I must return to Tianhun and rejoin my sect. Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you to the Star Luo Royal Family."

After Ning Tian spoke, Wang Dong suddenly raised his head, his eyes regaining the expression he had when he entered the Golden Ancient Tree a long time ago.

"Dean, I also wish to return to Tianhun and go back to Haotian Sect. Please grant my permission!"

Wang Dong didn't know what had happened at the Golden Ancient Tree, but she clearly remembered the unease she felt at the time. She wanted to return to the Haotian Sect and ask her eldest and second uncles to help her find out everything.

As for Shrek Academy, she, like Ning Tian, ​​had long wanted to break away. Although they were somewhat ungrateful, Shrek Academy had never shared their wealth and prosperity, had they? Now that they were in trouble, there was no reason for them to suffer along with them.

"You, you guys."

Yan Shaozhe took a few steps forward, trembling. He pointed at Wang Dong and Ning Tian, ​​and it wasn't hard to believe that he had heard these words from these two current Shrek Seven Devils.

He knew he absolutely could not agree, otherwise, the people's hearts would truly be scattered!
Don't they feel any sense of belonging to Shrek Academy at all? Shrek Academy has worked so hard to train you, and now that Shrek Academy is in trouble, you don't hesitate to leave. Where is your heart?
Do you think you've lived up to Shrek Academy's expectations of you?

Don't you want to avenge Shrek, those teachers, and the classmates who grew up together and supported each other?!
(Wang Dong, Ning Tian: Sorry, we don't know each other and have no connection!)
Xiao Xiao naturally followed Wang Dong. If she still had some feelings for Shrek Academy before, with the destruction of Shrek Academy, the best choice for her now was to return to Haotian Sect with Wang Dong. Moreover, she had made this preparation a long time ago.

Yan Shaozhe could not possibly agree, but just as he was about to speak, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School personnel who were secretly protecting Ning Tian appeared, as if they had timed it perfectly. Helpless, Yan Shaozhe could only watch Ning Tian being taken away.

Since Wang Dong had a background with the Haotian Sect, Yan Shaozhe didn't dare to gamble on whether this person had any powerful figures from the sect protecting him in the shadows, so he could only let him leave.

At this time, only a handful of Shrek disciples remained beside Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier, including Bei Bei and Zhang Lexuan.

Everyone looked grim, especially Bei Bei. Shrek Academy was gone, and Xuan Zu's greatest effort had been destroyed. How could he face Xuan Zu's trust? What should he do in the future?

He harbored immense hatred for the Body Sect and the Sun Moon Sect, and at this moment he made up his mind that he would make them pay a price a hundred times worse than this. Of course, the prerequisite for this was to find Xiaoya first.
