Chapter 110 Re-entering the Sunset Forest
"So after all that, these Shrek guys just went home." Xiao Yan thought so too. Without Tang San's mediation, given Yu Xiaogang's mentality, he would probably have already lost his temper when he saw Liu Erlong. How could he possibly agree to merge Shrek Academy with them in a pleasant manner?
Thus, Shrek Academy had only two paths: one was to follow Dai Mubai to the Star Luo Empire and settle down there, and the other was to return to their original dilapidated courtyard.
Tang San nodded: "I heard it's near Soto City in the Baroque Kingdom region within the Tiandou territory, which isn't too close or too far from here."
It's clear that Xiao San even went out of her way to find out the exact location of Shrek Academy. She was initially worried that the other party might have escaped to the Star Luo Empire, but that would be too far away, and it wasn't something she needed to worry about now.
However, now that Dai Mubai has made such a mistake, causing the Star Luo Empire to lose two Soul Kings, he probably wouldn't dare to run back. He can only wait for him in Shrek Academy. But right now, he probably still wants to enjoy his life.
Thinking about this, Xiao Yan was already considering what methods to use to deal with Dai Mubai. The best way would naturally be to have Agumon spit out a mouthful of phlegm, burning the person to ashes, destroying the evidence and leaving no survivors. However, the problem was that no one knew if Dai Mubai, as the former prince of Xingluo, had anything valuable on him. But according to Xiao Yan's memory, he probably didn't.
After all, Dai Mubai fled to the Heaven Dou Empire as a refugee, fearing that he would be killed by Davis. He originally wanted to use his own head to turn the tide, but now that has failed. According to the old monster, it is a foregone conclusion that he will lose his position as prince and Davis will be made crown prince in the Star Luo Empire. To put it bluntly, Dai Mubai is now a pawn to be discarded.
"Little monster, you wouldn't be thinking of making a move right now, would you? Do you need this old man's help?" Although Dugu Bo asked this question, his expression didn't seem to indicate that he wanted to help Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan could, of course, see what he was thinking.
"Don't worry, old monster, I can handle this myself. Why would I let a Title Douluo like you do an assassination? It would be a waste to use a cannon to kill a mosquito."
"No, I just feel that although you may speak of it lightly, someone wants to take your life. But when death comes, you will surely have a different understanding. Understanding this inner conflict will help your future cultivation. Of course, if you need my help, what harm is there in killing a mere Soul Venerable brat?"
Dugu Bo's words to Xiao Yan were all out of genuine concern. He was indeed worried that Dai Mubai would have too much influence on Xiao Yan and that a genius would be wasted. But in Xiao Yan's eyes, Dai Mubai was nothing more than a noisy fly. Since he insisted on getting acquainted with him, then he might as well kill him.
"You said it yourself, so I'll have to ask you to protect me then. I can guarantee that I can hit Dai Mubai with one strike, but there are still two Soul Douluos in Shrek Academy. If something goes wrong and we can't get away, wouldn't that be too risky?"
"That works too. Just let me know once you've made up your mind. By the way, little monster, I also heard that the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall wants to take you as his disciple. Is that true?"
"Of course, but I refused. What level is Salas at? If I really want to take an old Contra master as my teacher, why wouldn't I take you as my teacher?"
"So, you want to be my disciple? But it would be a shame if I couldn't pass on my poison skills to you." Dugu Bo said, looking Xiao Yan up and down.
Xiao Yan rolled his eyes: "Come on, old monster, you're really getting cocky after I praised you." After thinking about it, Xiao Yan didn't say the rest. If it really came down to learning poison, there probably wouldn't be another person more poisonous than Tang San in the entire Douluo Continent.
"It's good that you refused. The Spirit Hall hasn't been very peaceful lately. The factions inside are in complete disarray, and it seems like everyone is making moves, as if they're afraid outsiders won't notice. But Salas is an exception. He usually stays in Heaven Dou City." Dugu Bo said earnestly, as if he had thought of something.
"How can things not be chaotic? I feel like the Tianxing Kingdom and the entire Douluo Continent are almost in complete disarray, yet they still have the mind to hold some kind of National Soul Master Competition here." Ever since Xiao Yan released those theories with Yan Xiao and proposed the effects of those spiritual herbs and elixirs, the progress of the entire continent seems to have accelerated. Not to mention the improvement in the cultivation of Soul Masters of the same age, there is also the overall situation that he unintentionally influenced Qian Renxue. The story is developing in a direction that he did not expect.
It seems everyone is becoming a variable he can't understand. Right now, Xiao Yan really has no interest in participating in that so-called national competition. He originally thought that if he showed his talent in the Tian Dou selection competition, he would catch the eye of the Tian Dou royal family or even other forces and get their attention. But now it seems that he's only attracted annoying flies. And this is without him evolving Agumon into Greymon. If he's really pushed to the limit in the national competition, he might use all his tricks. In that case, can he really escape unscathed?
I am not Tang San. Would Tang Dachui take action for me? Obviously not. Even if I seem to have a good relationship with Tang San now, if Tang San's mother and other things are involved, it is hard to guarantee that Tang San will not be out of my control.
"After all, it's the National Soul Master Competition held once every five years. A lucky Soul Master can participate in two competitions, one as a substitute and the next as a main player. Such an honor is not just about showing the strength of a Soul Master in front of the whole continent, but also a spontaneous invitation. Which Soul Master wouldn't be tempted? Only you, little monster, seem unwilling. Do you really think you can win the championship?" Dugu Bo was about to roll his eyes at Xiao Yan, but then he felt that if it were Xiao Yan, he might actually be able to do it, so he shut his mouth again.
"This kind of championship only exists in whether I want it or not, not whether I can get it or not," Xiao Yan said with great confidence. "I still have many tricks up my sleeve, old monster."
"Yes, Big Brother's flames have been much more restrained. Senior Poison Douluo, you don't really think that Agumon's flames only have that little power, do you? Back when Big Brother only had one ring, he could evaporate a small lake in less than ten breaths. That time, he was afraid that Yu Tianheng would die without even ashes, so he deliberately restrained himself." Tang San couldn't help but praise Xiao Yan.
"No, no, it was already a stroke of luck to defeat Yu Tianheng. After all, it's not easy to use your first soul skill against someone's fourth soul skill."
Dugu Bo remained silent, recalling the scene of Xiao Yan's assassination at the foot of the mountain near Tiandou Academy. The scorched earth and the surrounding trees were clearly affected by the extremely intense flames, which Xiao Yan himself admitted were caused by his flames.
But even now, there's still no news of those two Star Luo Soul Kings, and Tang San just said he could burn people to ashes...
Dugu Bo nodded without doubt, finished the last sip of tea in his cup, walked straight to Xiao Yan's dormitory, pointed at Xiao Yan and Tang San, and then pointed to his own shoulder.
Xiao Yan nodded in agreement, and Tang San watched in bewilderment as Dugu Bo carried him and Xiao Yan, while the Rolling Ball Beast clung tightly to Xiao Yan's head as the group headed towards Sunset Forest.
