Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 59 The Duty of Those Who Kill Themselves

Tang Ya and Wang Dong escorted Huo Yuhao to the dormitory entrance, where Bei Bei caught up. He used his soul power to help Huo Yuhao recover, then solemnly said, "Little brother, please take good care of him for me."

Then, he took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket, poured out a pill, and handed it to Wang Dong: "Please help me feed him this pill as well."

At this moment, the old man sitting downstairs in the dormitory building, who was also Beibei's great-grandfather Mu En, slightly opened his eyes.

Mysterious Water Pill?

Mu En thought to himself calmly. While he himself might not value this thing, it was indeed a good thing for this rather polite young man. In a sense, the Xuan Shui Pill was one of the most prized treasures of the Xuanming Sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire; it could cleanse the marrow and bones of Soul Masters below level twenty, increasing their innate soul power by one level!

Speaking of the Xuanming Sect... Mu En's lips curled into a smile that went unnoticed by others.

This sect is very special. Although it is located in the Heavenly Soul Empire, Xu Sanshi's mother, who is also the sect leader's wife, is actually a princess of the previous dynasty of the Douling Empire.

In a sense, the Douling Empire was actually trying to plant a seed of infiltration in the Tianhun Empire through the Xuanming Sect. However, the exact extent of this infiltration remains unknown.

Thinking of the Xuanming Sect, Mu En inexplicably recalled the war of resistance launched by the original kingdoms when the Tiandou Empire split.

The organizers of the rebellion in the five kingdoms somehow obtained information about the Spirit Hall of the former civilization. Under this name, they led their kingdoms in a war, drove the Xue family out of the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, and forced them to establish a new empire in the northeastern corner of the continent—the Douling Empire.

Hmm... what was the name of that organizer again? I think—Lin something?

I don't remember. It's just dust in the tracks of history; nobody cares about such things. People will only remember that Shrek once again protected the faith of the continent.

Moon recalled the story from thousands of years ago. At that time, Shrek Academy did not choose to directly intervene in this matter, after all, it was an internal affair of the empire. However, it is said that after this incident, the then-patriarch of the Sea God Pavilion received some kind of secret divine revelation within the Golden Tree.

The oracle told him that the Heavenly Soul Empire was established, but the culprit had to be brought back and executed. This was because the person had acted under the banner of the Spirit Hall. The Heavenly Dou Empire splitting into ten parts was none of their business, but someone was acting against the tide of history, and that was something Shrek Academy could not tolerate.

Finally, the Sea God Pavilion Master and the Tang Sect Master of that generation gathered nearly thirty Title Douluo from across the continent to jointly besiege the royal family of the Heavenly Soul Empire, ultimately succeeding in capturing the organizer. It was incredibly shocking that this organizer, at the time, already possessed a cultivation level of ninety-eight, yet was only forty years old.

Her martial spirit seems to be some kind of Spider Queen.

Finally, as he was executed, a sinister smile appeared on the organizer's face.

"I am not the starting point of all chaos." The organizer stared at the executioner and the righteous people of the continent. "You must remember my eyes, which are like red spider lilies."

The executioner's sword fell.

"You should be afraid, for we will surely meet again..."

She didn't get to say the last word "see" before her head was severed by the Martial Soul Ruthless Sword. The executioner was the current head of the Sea God Pavilion.

"Tch, how dare you defy the sea god's decree and act perversely?" The executioner shook his head disdainfully.

The story ends here; it was just a farce, and it clearly ended in Shrek's victory.

However, ever since then, the royal family of the Heavenly Soul Empire and Shrek Academy have never been on good terms. Even later, when the Body Sect became the guardian sect of the Heavenly Soul Empire, it continued to have minor conflicts with Shrek Academy.

"All you ever think about is eating! You almost got our junior brother into trouble today." Bei Bei's voice pulled Mu En back to reality.

Tang Ya snorted: "Don't try that on me. I already knew you were up to no good with Xu Sanshi. That guy was stupid and fell for it. You just happened to have the chance."

Beibei looked innocent: "I was just about to go to sleep when someone gave me a pillow. What could I do? I remember someone said that if I beat up Xu Sanshi, I could kiss him. You have to keep your word." Tang Ya stuck her tongue out at him: "I mean, you have to beat him so badly he can't take care of himself! Do you have that kind of ability? You should practice."

Mu En's lips curled into a subtle smile again. Truly worthy of being his descendant; his methods for seducing young girls were endless. He himself had once forcibly married the senior disciple of the inner courtyard to this great-grandson, and with this Tang Clan girl added to the mix, this descendant's future was undeniably bright!

Hehe, it doesn't matter if the Tang Clan declines. If my descendants help rebuild its glory, won't the ancestors in heaven remember my contributions? Then, my bloodline as the Holy Dragon of Light will have the opportunity to continue.

Beibei glanced at her ancestor, a thoughtful expression on her face, and then quietly blinked before leaving with Tang Ya.

"Hey—Xue'er, wake up, are you a pig?"

The little devil was sitting in the small room, his hands supporting his chin.

"Tsk, instead of cultivating properly at a time like this, you're still sleeping in..." She gently fiddled with the scales beside her.

Previously, Qian Renxue had been infused with a stream of luminous soul power by Ye Xishui. The affinity of that soul power made her feel completely relaxed. After the conversation ended last night, she washed up, changed her clothes, and went to sleep.

However, the little devil was not affected by this soul power. She could have secretly taken over the body from the little angel during this time, but since she cared so much about her other self, she decided to let her sleep for a while.

She kept a close watch on the outside all night. Having boarded the Holy Spirit Cult, she had to be careful. If anyone tried to harm the tired, sleeping little angel, she would have to forcibly take control of her body no matter what.

Of course, it's also because she's so bored right now, with no one to talk to, she's about to fart from boredom.

"Hmm—" The little angel heard another version of herself rambling on and slowly woke up, rubbing her eyes.

She was still in that quaint hotel, sleeping on the large bed in one of the rooms. However, the velvet quilt was a mess because of her less-than-elegant sleeping posture, one of her long, shapely legs was sticking out, and she was curled up like a kitten, hugging her pillow.

She tried to get up by propping herself up on her arms, but her golden hair with a few white streaks got stuck under her arms.

"Hiss—ah—"

Her hair was pulled, and she cried out in pain.

"Thump—" She lay back down on the bed.

"How long have I been asleep?" she asked the little devil.

"Huh? You slept for a whole day and night. I really don't know how you could sleep."

This chapter is important because it supplements the background of some major forces on the continent from a third-person perspective.

Besides the background of the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Star Luo Empire, the Golden Tree of Shrek Academy can convey divine messages. However, the source of this divine message is not Tang San, but his mother, Ah Yin.

Ah Yin resided within the Golden Tree, constantly transforming it. In the end, during Douluo Continent III, it became the Tree of Life, completely replacing the Lake of Life in Star Dou and becoming the source of life in the Douluo Continent. This was inseparable from the actions of the successive Sea God Pavilion Masters who sacrificed themselves to the Golden Tree after their deaths.

However, in Douluo Continent III, Ah Yin used the energy within the Golden Tree without hesitation to condense a golden-green spirit ring for her grandson, which... caused the Tree of Life to run out of energy, resulting in Shrek Academy being blown up.
