Chapter 446 I'll Make You Suffer a Crushing Defeat; Tang Wutong: Yuhao, isn't the academy the home you're meant to protect?
"Alright, you don't need to put on this fake self-pity act in front of me anymore."
Poseidon waved his hand impatiently and said coldly, "Since the God of Asura is so heartless and unwilling to come out to see me, it means he doesn't care about his old friend at all."
No matter what, Tang San was the successor of the Sea God that I personally chose and selected. Helping him revive is my way of repaying this favor.
According to your plan, you should know immediately when the Abyss Saint King descends upon Douluo Continent, right? I will stay here for the time being and personally deal with the Abyss Saint King before those two do.
After a pause, Poseidon seemed to realize something crucial and pressed on, "But after dealing with the Abyss Saint King, how will you utilize the Abyss's energy to revive Tang San? You shouldn't make any mistakes in this crucial step, right?"
"Please rest assured, Lord Poseidon, that's a matter you can be completely at ease with."
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao was overjoyed and completely relieved. He quickly stated, "My beloved should now be the life core of the Douluo plane."
Once this step is successful, the abyssal energy that will be devoured and absorbed by the Douluo plane in the future will be at our disposal.
"Then let's hope things go as smoothly as you say, and that nothing goes wrong."
Poseidon picked up his teacup again, took a sip of tea, and a glint of light flashed in the depths of his slightly lowered eyes.
Shura, Shura, since you old fox have chosen to keep this from me, then I, your brother, am going to have a good fight with you today.
This time, I'm determined to disrupt your plans and make you taste the bitterness of defeat.
Meanwhile, on the still desolate and lifeless lunar surface, riddled with craters of varying sizes, stands a pavilion that seems utterly out of place with its surroundings.
The Asura God, whose face was as red as cinnabar, suddenly sneezed several times without warning.
He rubbed his nose and muttered strangely, "This is really weird. Why do I always feel like someone is talking badly about me behind my back?"
"If only the central authority of the divine realm were no longer here, I would definitely drag that audacious fellow out and give him a good dressing down on the judgment seat."
Seeing this, the God of Destruction, sitting to the side, chuckled without any attempt to hide his amusement: "Alright, stop pretending. Who else would be talking about you at a time like this, besides Poseidon who just got back not long ago?"
According to the message from the god of lust, Poseidon has been searching for you everywhere. Why don't you go down and drag him up here for a confrontation?
"Then forget it. Why did that guy have to come back now of all times to join in the fun?"
The Asura God decisively shook his head, then revealed a cunning and wicked smile: "Since you sent the God of Lust to the scene, and Rong Nianbing said that if things don't work out, he will personally help that kid Huo Yuhao."
So it's necessary for me to have Poseidon, that sucker, go to Tang Hao's side to balance the current combat power between the two sides.
"After all, I used to be the most impartial enforcer in the divine realm, and fairness was my top priority."
"You old codger, how dare you stand here and talk about fairness? Your scheming and despicable nature hasn't changed at all over the years."
The God of Destruction rolled his eyes in exasperation, scoffing at the Asura God's words.
Upon hearing this, Rong Nianbing, who was sitting on the other side, also showed some curiosity and asked, "From what you're saying, does it mean that you, Asura God, and Poseidon had some kind of grudge in the past?"
Or is the grudge and entanglement stemming from Tang San's simultaneous inheritance of two godhoods?
"Rong Nianbing, you joined after these two left the God Realm to travel, so you really don't know about their grudges back then."
Anyway, all we have to do now is wait here for the right opportunity. Since we're bored, let me expose the true nature of this Asura God to you.
Completely ignoring the Asura God's repeated objections and threats, the God of Destruction began to recount with great interest the Asura God's various double standards in the God Realm back then.
Rong Nianbing was speechless with astonishment, secretly marveling that double standards were probably a kind of tradition for the enforcers of the divine realm.
Mingdu, Federal Conference Hall.
The spacious room, brimming with cutting-edge technology, was now enveloped in a heavy and oppressive atmosphere.
Arguments erupted as people shifted blame and accused each other; some even shouted at the top of their lungs:
-
"Don't you understand? Yun Ming made such a big fuss simply because he was angry about the Federation's previous decision to merge the schools!"
In my opinion, it would be better to temporarily shelve the school merger plan. Then, as usual, we could just send the Federal Speaker out to apologize to Yun Ming and quell his anger, wouldn't that solve the problem?
The federal speaker, who exists only as a mascot, doesn't even have the qualifications to attend the meeting; otherwise, upon hearing this, his face would probably turn green with rage.
A sharp and angry rebuttal quickly followed.
"Are you planning to let Shrek take advantage of this incident and bully our Federation again?"
Didn't you just see on the screen that Yun Ming's single command was enough to make millions of people in Shrek City obey orders?
Such appeal undoubtedly proves his blatant rebellious intentions! We must not hesitate or compromise in the slightest when dealing with such a traitor who dares to openly challenge the authority of the Federation; we must strike hard.
Using a god-slaying level fixed-position soul-guided cannon might just kill Yun Ming, who had just become a god, in one fell swoop.
The peacemaker, who had been silent all along, quickly stood up and said, "Everyone, don't be so hasty. Let's see what Yun Ming, who is heading towards Mingdu, is up to first."
Perhaps if everyone could sit down and have a proper talk, and each make concessions to find a compromise, wouldn't that be a win-win situation?
"Happy my ass! You're just a greenhorn who's only been in office for a few days. You probably have no idea that decades ago, Mingdu was almost destroyed by that Yun Ming."
"We should deploy the god-slaying fixed-position soul-guided cannon now and blast that bastard to death, eliminating any future threat!"
"You make it sound so easy, 'just mobilize them'? If you actually open fire but fail to kill Yun Ming in one fell swoop, and he turns Mingdu upside down, will you take responsibility?"
"...
Sitting in the main seat, Chen Xinjie looked at the federal high-ranking officials, who were usually divided into different factions, now completely in a chaotic state of arguing, and felt a headache coming on.
How did our Douluo Federation end up like this?
With that in mind, Chen Xinjie quickly typed an encrypted message on his communication device under the conference table and sent it out.
A short while later, the communication device emitted a slight buzzing sound, and the reply message displayed on the screen was very simple, consisting of only one extremely short message.
"Please, Palace Master Chen, do your utmost to hold off Yun Ming, who is on his way to Mingdu. Our ancestor has already gone to Shrek Academy to deal with more important matters."
Upon seeing the reply, Chen Xinjie felt instantly relieved.
Yun Ming's sudden ascension to godhood was completely unexpected by all of them.
However, compared to the abyss plane that is about to be invaded, as long as things don't go wrong on Huo Yuhao's side, then this mere Yun Ming, who has just become a god, is not worth fearing at all.
Not long ago, two figures were darting through the high sky above the Star Dou Great Forest.
Huo Yuhao, who was in the lead, kept his brows tightly furrowed, and his expression was quite solemn.
According to Ya Li's senses, the life energy across the entire Douluo plane is currently undergoing some kind of abnormal fluctuation.
Clearly, Ah Yin, who had been lurking within the Golden Tree, had already begun to harm it.
In addition, Yun Ming's grand breakthrough to godhood and his open provocation of the Federation, along with the emergency assembly order issued by the Holy Spirit Cult to Nanali, all these unexpected situations intertwined, forcing them to split into three groups.
Zhu Zhuqing led Yuan Enyehui and the others to Mingdu at full speed to prepare for a possible divine war and prevent Yun Ming from losing his mind in his rage and doing something irreversible.
Meanwhile, Nanali went to the Holy Spirit Cult's meeting place to secretly investigate the evil spirit masters' next action plan.
As for him and Tang Wutong, they must stop A Yin's actions before A Yin successfully seizes the life core.
With their current strength, coupled with Yun Ming's highly inflammatory announcement, the vast majority of the academy's leaders and students are already eagerly following Yun Ming to Mingdu to demand an explanation.
The vast Shrek Academy was now in an unprecedented state of emptiness.
With the help of simulated soul skills, the two fell directly from the sky to Poseidon Island without any hindrance.
Once you pass through the outer layer of clouds and mist surrounding Poseidon Island, you'll discover that the once vibrant and beautiful island, brimming with life and resembling a fairyland, now reveals a desolate and decaying landscape that's hard to conceal.
Especially the striking golden ancient tree, from which large swaths of withered branches and leaves are constantly falling from the top of its canopy.
It seemed as if this ancient tree, which had witnessed countless changes over the years, was weeping silently.
Tang Wutong stared blankly at the surrounding scenery. Even after tens of thousands of years, every plant and tree here still had a very special and long-lost sense of familiarity for her.
In particular, those memories of Wang Dong'er, Wang Qiu'er, and herself living on this Poseidon Island flashed uncontrollably from the depths of her mind like a revolving lantern.
Tang Wutong, who had silently suppressed all her emotions since the beginning of the journey and remained silent until now, finally couldn't hold back any longer.
She looked at the white-haired boy in front of her and asked in confusion, "Yuhao, just because of the connection between Shrek Academy and my father, are you going to destroy it?"
But this place also holds countless bonds that belong to you. Wasn't it also the home you once risked your life to protect?
Back when they were still in the Yuanen family, judging from the series of instructions issued by Huo Yuhao, Shrek Academy was very likely to become history and cease to exist completely after this turmoil.
Tang Wutong still couldn't understand why the boy who once regarded Shrek Academy as the glory of his life and was even willing to sacrifice everything for it had become so cold and ruthless.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao abruptly stopped in his tracks. After a long silence, he slowly replied, "Wu Tong, you must understand. It wasn't me who destroyed it, but it itself."
Since my return, I have never deliberately targeted the academy. But you just witnessed the series of actions taken by the Sky-Supporting Douluo.
The Federation is now a unified political system, and the root cause of all this is the irreconcilable power conflict between the Academy and the Federation.
I had no intention of getting involved or helping either side. Zhu Qing went to Mingdu to prevent ordinary people there from being affected by the leakage of divine energy.
Whether the academy will continue to exist or be destroyed and buried by history is entirely determined by the choices made by the academy's leaders in this era.
I am here today simply to accomplish what I must accomplish, nothing more.
The core of the conflict between Shrek Academy and the Federation lies in the issue of merging the schools.
This was a decision made by Chen Xinjie after careful consideration, based on his position as the top leader and vice chairman of the Federation military, after obtaining those secret messages and successfully breaking through to the god-level in his own cultivation.
When Huo Yuhao left Qiankun Wenqing Valley to deal with the ancient families at the Spirit Pagoda, he was naturally aware of the Federation's decision.
However, he maintained an attitude of neither supporting nor opposing this matter, and did not choose to show up and take action to forcibly reorganize the Spirit Pagoda as he did with it.
After all, the grudges between the Federation and the Academy have been brewing for a long time, and the conflict is snowballing, so it's only a matter of time before the two sides break off relations.
Even compared to the predetermined fate he once glimpsed through the Eye of Destiny, where Shrek Academy was ultimately destroyed by a god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannon, resulting in the heavy deaths and injuries of tens of millions of innocent civilians in Shrek City.
The fact that the merger of the two schools can now put an end to the feud between the college and the federation is perhaps a good solution.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao looked at Tang Wutong, whose expression was complicated, and added, "As for the so-called home, it cannot be determined by this island or these things."
Now that time is of the essence, it seems unlikely that I can fulfill my promise to let you negotiate with Ah Yin alone.
If you're willing to help me lure out Ah Yin, then come with me into this ancient golden tree.
If you don't want to see what happens next, I won't force you. For me, it'll just mean expending more effort.
