I Want to See Rivers of Blood!
In his "online" assessment of Huo Yuhao, Shen Yichen had only one word: "clown"!
Just like judging Shrek "online," there was no need to consider any other factors. Trashing it was political correctness!
In truth, crows everywhere were equally black.
It was just that the protagonist group's story had played out here, exposing the problems here in the greatest detail.
Was the Dou Ling Empire any better? Did the Star Luo Empire have no problems?
Or... was the Sun Moon Empire free of problems?
This was a world where everyone was competing to be the least rotten. The only faction that would ever truly satisfy you was the one you controlled yourself!
And Shrek was the only faction where, as long as your talent was high enough, you could stand at the pinnacle of power.
At that thought, Shen Yichen chuckled. He wasn't just running his mouth, either. Six years after transmigrating, he had destroyed Shrek Academy the moment his Martial Soul awakened, forcing the academy to rebuild.
Neither the dean of the Martial Soul Department nor the dean of the Soul Tool Department had so much as a complaint. Even the Sea God Pavilion Master could only swallow his anger.
What anti-Shrek transmigrator could boast an accomplishment like that?
Never mind how it had been destroyed. Just say whether it had been destroyed or not!
Setting all those personal feelings aside, Huo Yuhao was one unlucky bastard. Not only was he caught between the plane consciousness and Tang God King, but Shen Yichen was now secretly scheming against him too~
All he could say was... he was beyond saving. He might as well wait for death.
Whichever of the three won, things wouldn't end particularly well for Huo Yuhao.
[Soul Engineer: Huo Yuhao is the White Tiger Duke's son?]
Jing Hongchen almost couldn't restrain the thoughts stirring in his heart.
He was locked in a fight to the death with the White Tiger Duke and was also a Soul Tool genius. Didn't that make him a natural ally of the Sun Moon Empire?
This child was born to come to the Sun Moon Empire and develop his talents!
What brought Jing Hongchen back to his senses was Tang God King's hand.
A string of coincidences: an impoverished child joined the Tang Sect, entered Shrek, and just happened to share a dorm with Tang God King's daughter. If there was no scheming behind that, Jing Hongchen would eat the diary in his hands!
Under those circumstances, even if he coveted that genius, he could only behave himself.
He wouldn't even dare touch the slightest bit of Huo Yuhao's future opportunities.
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Judging by the diary, is Huo Yuhao beyond saving?]
[Cloud: No, there must be a way!]
Hiss?
Shen Yichen wasn't the only one who noticed something was amiss. Zhang Lexuan, Mu En, and even Jing Hongchen caught on too.
Judging by the timeline, Huo Yuhao was still just a child. His story hadn't officially begun yet.
At this point, there were very few people who could be worried about him!
The answer was on the tip of their tongues!
But knowing was one thing; no one exposed her identity in the Comment Section.
No one wanted to do something that benefited nobody.
Of course, if someone did expose her, they would happily look forward to what happened next.
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: What way is there? The only way is for me to secretly become a god while Tang God King's hand is manipulating Huo Yuhao!]
[Soul Engineer: Great Sage, that's... crudely put, but sound reasoning.]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: There's nothing crude about it!]
At that moment, Jing Hongchen was like Taibai Jinxing being toyed with by Sun Wukong. He wanted to speak, then stopped himself, then wanted to speak again...
He gathered his words. Then...
[Soul Engineer: Then... Great Sage, what level is your Soul Power now?]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Level ninety-nine!]
Jing Hongchen: I ** you ****!
After venting a string of fragrant curses, Jing Hongchen took a sip of tea to soothe his throat.
He really couldn't underestimate the other holders of the diary copies. Even if one was a child, he wasn't stupid.
In fact... even the way he spoke like a child might be an act!
[Cloud: Huo Yuhao is the Child of Luck. As long as he has our help, he can definitely turn defeat into victory!]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: And then become a second Tang San?]
[Cloud: No, he won't! Huo Yuhao won't!]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: You love speaking up for Huo Yuhao so much. Are you his father or his mother?]
Jing Hongchen: ???
He'd let the cat out of the bag! He'd done it!
The Joker didn't care about any of that. Let identities be exposed, let suspicions spread, let them fight and curse and let the copy holders tear into one another. Only then could he, the diary's author, sit behind the scenes on his fishing platform, steady and secure.
As for whether Huo Yun'er lived or died after her identity was exposed, that had nothing to do with him.
Shen Yichen had a clear understanding of himself. He was a pure demon pill, and there were only a few people he cared about. Huo Yun'er definitely wasn't one of them!
If it were Xiao Xiao in Huo Yun'er's place, or even Ning Tian, Shen Yichen wouldn't have been so decisive.
Because he was so horny, and who knew? He might be able to hook up with them someday.
But Huo Yun'er?
He had no interest in becoming Huo Yuhao's stepfather...
Elsewhere, Shen Yichen's words had left Huo Yun'er unable to speak or stay silent.
She glanced at little Yuhao, who was diligently cleaning the small wooden hut, and gritted her teeth. Even if she exposed herself, she had to find Yuhao a way out!
[Cloud: I just think our chances of winning aren't great. Only by joining forces with the Child of Luck can we save this continent.]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Our chances aren't great?]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: I don't understand! With the diary's advantage of foresight and the invisible support of the entire world, no matter how you look at it, the advantage is mine!]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: If you don't have confidence, leave it to me.]
[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Let Tang San come and try me! Even if I bore the plane consciousness on my back and held up the Douluo Continent with one hand, I would still be invincible in this world!]
A madman!
How could anyone be this mad?!
(Shen Yichen: If you had a Heaven and Earth Same Life button, you might be even more arrogant than me!)
Seeing that she couldn't get through to "Great Sage Equal to Heaven," Huo Yun'er turned around and sought out Jing Hongchen instead.
[Cloud: He doesn't understand, but you must understand, Soul Engineer, right? If we want to resist Tang San, joining forces with the Child of Luck is the simplest and safest way! How about going to the Sun Moon Empire?]
Jing Hongchen shuddered at being called out for no apparent reason.
I disaggwee, I hold the opposite opinion!
Although Jing Hongchen did think that Great Sage Equal to Heaven was mad, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with what Huo Yun'er had said,
the problem was that her Child of Luck was being watched every step of the way by a mortal enemy!
If he rashly stepped in, perhaps nothing would happen to the Child of Luck, but the fish in the pond would surely suffer.
Although the entertainment industry on the Douluo Continent wasn't very developed, there were still plenty of stories.
Whether the "protagonist" won or lost, those who helped the "protagonist" rarely came to a good end.
Especially when the diary had stated outright that Huo Yuhao, watched by Tang God King, was no different from a harbinger of disaster.
Of course, in the spirit of friendly communication, Jing Hongchen offered Huo Yun'er a suggestion.
[Soul Engineer: Eh? I have an idea. Why not have Huo Yuhao join Shrek Academy early? As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place...]
Zhang Lexuan, who had been silently lurking without saying a word: ????
Was that something a human being would say?
[Soul Engineer: You must know that Tang God King has been watching Huo Yuhao all along. He has to go to Shrek. In fact... if he goes to Shrek, he might be able to borrow a hen to lay his eggs!]
