"Seeing you energetic children, I believe the future will be even brighter, and I can die in peace."
Moon spoke slowly, pausing after every few sentences, as if speaking had exhausted all his strength.
This made those below feel even more heartbroken. Who would have thought that this person was the Ultimate Douluo standing at the pinnacle of the continent?
"teacher……"
Jiang Yi stood at the very front, letting out a soft sigh, his face filled with sorrow.
There aren't many things about Mu En that can be criticized, except for feeding the Douluo, but Jiang Yi has no right to say that.
From the perspective of mentor and student alone, Moon had already done more than enough for him, even though he was competing with Bebe for a girlfriend.
"Xiao Yi, I'm very relieved to have Shrek Academy in your care. But when it comes to matters of the heart, you should still keep a little restraint..."
Mu En coughed lightly and spoke earnestly to Jiang Yi, his gaze sweeping over Xian Lin'er and the other girls.
There are some things he knows very well.
But feelings can't be forced, so he could only try his best to fulfill them, and let this dying man do some of the bad things.
"Also, Lin'er, you're not young anymore. Your impulsive actions back then should come to an end, cough cough..."
His gaze shifted to Xian Lin'er, his tone filled with helplessness, before turning to Qian Duoduo beside him with an apologetic look.
"Duoduo, let this old man be the villain! I hope neither of you will be trapped by the other."
"Teacher/Master!"
Seeing Mu En contemplating his future marriage on his deathbed, Xian Lin'er could no longer hold back her tears.
Qian Duoduo fell silent, seemingly struggling, before finally letting out a deep sigh and nodding to Mu En.
"Elder Mu, I understand."
Love is not about possession, but about letting go.
He knew that Xianlin'er's heart was not with him, so he should stop hoping for the best.
"That's good."
Immediately afterwards, Mu En looked at Xuan Zi, his tone becoming more serious.
“Xuanzi, after I leave, you have the highest cultivation level and the most seniority, but you are too impulsive. Before you take action, you must discuss it with Xiaoyi. Do you understand?”
"I...I know..."
Xuanzi was overcome with grief, and even his usually carefree face was streaked with tears.
His teacher passed away early, so his junior uncle Mu En was his true teacher. The two had been teacher and friend for two hundred years.
"Well, that's good! And Shao Zhe, it's really good that you can let go. After I leave, let Xiao Tao take over as the vice dean of the Spirit Academy..."
"Beibei, you should handle matters of the heart yourself, just don't regret it later. You don't need to worry about the family."
"Little Ya, you did a great job with the Tang Clan. Shrek Academy and the Tang Clan are of one mind. You and Xiao Yi..."
Moon addressed the teachers and students present, giving them instructions one by one, his kind smile making him look like an ordinary old man.
All good things must come to an end.
“Ancestors, Mun has come.”
Suddenly, Mu En let out a long roar, and a powerful golden light burst forth from his body, accompanied by a dragon's roar echoing through the void.
Bathed in golden light, the old man's long-paralyzed body stood up again, and his appearance returned to its youthful state.
"Haha, I'm off!"
Moon laughed loudly, and a golden dragon soared upwards, circling above the golden tree outside the Sea God Pavilion.
Loud dragon roars rang out continuously, and the intense aura of light almost transformed into a golden ocean.
On the open ground outside the hall, dozens of inner court disciples knelt on the ground. Seeing this strange sight, they felt deeply saddened.
Just then, Jiang Yi led the group out and respectfully bowed to the Holy Dragon of Light in the sky.
"Respectfully seeing off Elder Mu!"
Following his lead, the rest of the mourners saw Mu En off, their sorrowful voices echoing through the sky.
The white dragon in the sky glanced back, seemingly with a smile, then let out a long roar and vanished into the world.
Roar--!
The dragon's roar faded, and the giant dragon transformed into streaks of golden light that drifted down.
On Poseidon Island, everything was bathed in a faint golden light, and everyone felt the cleansing power of light.
"Everyone, sit down cross-legged, concentrate your minds, and comprehend the Dao. This is Elder Mu's final gift to you..."
Xuanzi wiped away her tears, her voice carrying throughout the entire Seagod Island.
A single robe still hangs heavy with drought, its leaves rustling and crackling, its head thrown back in disarray. A flattering glance at the jade-like figure, a peephole-like creature ...
"..."
Jiang Yi stood silently in the Sea God Pavilion, watching the golden hue dissipate between heaven and earth, and sighed softly in his heart.
This time, Moon's wish was fulfilled, and he had no more worries. Unlike in the original story, he did not choose to stay in the Golden Tree, but instead returned directly to heaven and earth to be reincarnated.
That's good! It saves us from becoming fertilizer for others inside the Golden Tree.
He stared for a long time, then came to his senses, looked down at the entire Shrek Academy, and raised his hands with a look of rapture.
"Shrek's surname is now Jiang!"
……
Meanwhile, the Sun and Moon Empire.
In the Ming Dynasty imperial palace, in the inner palace, the once ambitious emperor now lay sickly on his bed.
"Hahahaha! Boss, I've said it before, you're the one who's most like me, and also the one who's least like me..."
Xu Haotian struggled to lift his head and looked at the young man sitting in a wheelchair in front of him, with blood-stained guards lying on the ground.
Back then, he did the same thing, carrying a robe and a sword, storming into the palace, and seizing the throne from his cowardly elder brother.
Now, it's his turn...
"Isn't this what you taught me before? But, Father, you've grown old! And you've become weak!"
Xu Tianran said in a leisurely tone.
He looked at his father lying on the hospital bed, his eyes filled with nostalgia, disdain, but mostly fervent passion.
Military power, the imperial court, soul masters... he has already grasped them all. He doesn't want to wait any longer for the throne.
Behind him stood two figures: one was Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall, and the other was Ju Zi, dressed in military uniform.
Over the years, the oranges of today have shed their former scholarly air and gained a more decisive and ruthless edge.
"Are you ready to do this? Being an emperor isn't so easy..."
Xu Haotian showed no anger or fear of impending death, but instead looked at him calmly like a father.
"Openly repair the plank road, secretly advance through Chencang! First subdue the Heavenly Soul, then use a policy of appeasement to gain a foothold within the territory of the Three Kingdoms..."
"By keeping the war on the Douluo Continent, the empire will only grow stronger and stronger, gradually eroding the territories of the three kingdoms."
Xu Tianran did not rush to take action, but instead maneuvered his wheelchair forward and patiently talked to his adoptive father, the emperor.
The entire nation is a soldier, and the national system is designed for war. Apart from the deaths, waging war is almost entirely beneficial.
However, the technological gap between the two sides made Xu Tianran very confident; the Sun and Moon were simply a matter of overwhelming those country bumpkins.
"it is good!"
Xu Haotian smiled with satisfaction.
His dream is to lead the sun and moon, wash away the humiliation of thousands of years of imperial history, and unify the entire Douluo Continent.
Unfortunately, his life was full of twists and turns, and he ultimately couldn't do it, but his son was even more ruthless and outstanding than him.
"Let's get started!"
The emperor slowly closed his eyes, leaned against the headboard, and said no more.
Xu Tianran's gaze shifted between Ju Zi and Jing Hongchen, finally settling on Jing Hongchen.
Mirror of the Mortal World: ...
No, are we going to drag him down with us?
Rebellion is a meritorious act of following the emperor's lead, but having personally killed the emperor, there's no guarantee that Xu Tianran won't turn on him after he's served his purpose and settle scores later.
Chapter 254 The Sun and Moon Coup! The Daily Life of Pavilion Master Jiang! The Pure-Hearted Female Secretary!
"The Master of the Red Dust Hall?"
Xu Tianran squinted, a slight smile playing on his lips, but that smile made Jing Hongchen feel like he was being pricked by thorns.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Jing Hongchen sighed and could only step forward helplessly. He flicked his finger, and a cold light shot towards Xu Haotian on the bed.
If we don't take action, he'll be the one who dies.
Since death is inevitable sooner or later, it's better to die later. Who knows, the Red Dust Clan might have another chance to escape in the future.
"Ugh—!"
Xu Haotian grunted and tilted his head to one side, thus ending the life of this once ambitious and talented emperor.
"Ha ha……"
Xu Tianran smiled with satisfaction.
Orange is his most trusted confidante and will be his queen, while Jing Hongchen is still on the fringes.
He hates fence-sitters the most.
Looking at his father, who had died on the bed, Xu Tianran felt no sorrow, only joy. From this day forward, he declared, "I am the sun and the moon."
Xu Tianran turned to look at the trembling court historian beside him, tapped the wheelchair, and spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"Write! Emperor Xu Haotian died of illness, and on his deathbed, he passed the throne to Crown Prince Xu Tianran!"
"Yes Yes……"
The historian recorded it with trembling hands, without altering a single word, but whether there was any subtle or euphemistic writing style is unknown.
Xu Tianran didn't care much. As long as he unified the world, so what if he killed his father, murdered his brother, and took his sister-in-law?
"Issue my decree to summon the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince... to the palace! Tell them that the Emperor is critically ill and there is no time to lose."
Xu Tianran's voice resounded throughout the hall, and the guards outside the palace obeyed and left.
He, meanwhile, was captivated by the supreme taste of the fish, the pungent aroma of the fish, and the intoxicating sensation of the fish.
I want to be the greatest emperor of all time!
What the Spirit Hall can't do, I can; what the gods can't do, I can also do—
……
The situation on the mainland is changing rapidly. In a short time, Shrek Academy and the Sun Moon Empire on both the east and west sides will be greatly shaken.
The former master of the Sea God Pavilion was the only fallen Ultimate Douluo in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, while the new master is just a greenhorn!
The Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire has passed away, and the more radical Crown Prince Xu Tianran has succeeded him...
These changes prompted various countries to respond, some gloating while others were filled with sorrow.
In the Star Luo Empire, at the imperial court.
"Your Majesty, Xu Tianran's ambition surpasses even that of his father, the Emperor. Xingluo must be on guard!"
An old minister said with deep concern.
Xu Jiawei, sitting at the head of the table, also frowned, lost in thought, a dark cloud hanging over his brow.
Over the years, Xingluo and the Sun Moon Empire have had their share of friction, but due to Xu Haotian's physical condition, both sides have tacitly controlled the intensity of the friction.
Now that Xu Tianran has ascended the throne, this young emperor is likely to harbor ambitions to make a big splash.
