The God King Makes His Move
Time passed day by day.
It took Tang San most of the day to separate his daughter's soul and Divine Sense.
A day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth.
By the time Tang San had the energy to process the information Mu En sent up from the lower realm, more than half a year had already passed in the Douluo Continent.
"Did it fail?"
Tang San closed his eyes, deep in thought.
Just as Mu En had predicted, Tang San never considered the possibility of Shrek betraying him.
Tang San thought to himself, "As expected of Plane Consciousness. Through a series of coincidences and accidents, the Child of Luck has escaped another calamity."
"Mu En has a point."
If one's goal is to forcefully eliminate the Child of Luck, then whether the Child of Luck has feelings for Shrek is irrelevant.
However, since the goal is to subdue the Child of Luck, it is necessary to try to prevent the Child of Luck from resisting Shrek Academy.
"So... it's time for the Clear Sky Sect to make a move!"
Speaking of the Clear Sky Sect...
Tang San glanced at the Douluo Continent, wanting to see how Da Ming Er Ming had developed the Clear Sky Sect.
Then...
Has anything changed?
Tang San carefully examined the place again, inside and out, and finally concluded that compared to half a year ago, the Clear Sky Sect had made absolutely no progress!
"Idiot!"
Tang San was so angry that his teeth itched. He took several deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart.
His Divine Sense reached out and instantly contacted Da Ming Er Ming, who were fast asleep at the Clear Sky Sect.
What have you all been doing for the past six months?!
Inside the Clear Sky Sect, Da Ming Er Ming were startled. From Tang San's tone, they sensed something was wrong.
Er Ming quickly replied, "We didn't do anything. You can ask Da Ming if you don't believe me!"
Tang San: "..."
"Yes, I testify for Er Ming that we absolutely did not cause any trouble!"
Call...
Tang San kept a straight face, forcing a smile, "I'll send Xiao Qi to the Douluo Continent right away. You all take good care of her."
"Then, the two of you personally went out and snatched a child named Huo Yuhao back to your sect from the Body Sect."
"Yes, yes." Da Ming Er Ming responded repeatedly.
"After doing all this... you release the message that the Clear Sky Sect has annihilated the Body Sect and re-entered the world!"
Once this message is released, even if the Clear Sky Sect does nothing, other external forces will take the initiative to establish contact with the Clear Sky Sect.
"Any other questions?" Tang San asked, just to be on the safe side, worried that the two mindless Soul Beasts might mess things up.
"No... Oh, no, there is! Where are the Body Sect and Huo Yuhao?"
"I will descend to guide you!"
Once Tang San's Divine Sense was withdrawn, inside the Clear Sky Sect, Da Ming and Er Ming stared at each other wide-eyed.
"Er Ming, it must have been you who was secretly talking about Sister Xiao Wu, and Tang San found out!"
Er Ming: "..."
"Isn't he being a bit too stingy?" Er Ming muttered to himself.
The perspective returns to Tang San's side. Having just dealt with Da Ming Er Ming of the Clear Sky Sect, he now has to contact Mu En of the Shrek Academy without delay.
Contacting Shrek doesn't require much effort; just tell Mu En to prepare Shrek to take Child of Luck as the chosen one.
"However..." Tang San's brows furrowed with worry. Was it really a good idea to let Xiao Qi grow up in the Clear Sky Sect?
There's no doubt that Da Ming and Er Ming love Xiao Qi, but they really are a bit dim-witted.
Tang San felt he had been more tolerant than usual. What normal man would allow two other men whispering amongst themselves about his wife?
"Once the Clear Sky Sect captures Huo Yuhao, let Xiao Qi and Huo Yuhao go to Shrek Academy together."
"We need to make some proper arrangements..."

Although Da Ming Er Ming of the Clear Sky Sect weren't the brightest, the fighting missions arranged by Tang San were still a piece of cake for them.
Clear Sky Sect
Da Ming looked at the wisp of golden light in his palm. The golden light was like the index of a compass, and after circling around, it steadily pointed in one direction.
Let's go.
"You're going too?" Er Ming scratched his head. "It's just a small Body Sect, isn't one person enough for me?"
"We can't underestimate the people of the world. What if we mess up the Sea God's mission again..." Da Ming didn't say what the consequences would be, but only gave a meaningful look.
Er Ming shuddered instantly. "Okay, I understand!"
Using their Soul Power, the two 'people' flew towards the horizon.
On the other side, on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Du Busi shuddered and felt a chill run down his spine.
Sometimes, omens arrive so suddenly and unexpectedly. Although there was no basis for it, Du Busi looked towards the horizon—was he being watched?
Before him, Huo Yuhao was battling a Hundred-Year Soul Beast.
It was called a battle, but in reality it was just one-sided beatings.
Even with the Body Sect's massive investment, Huo Yuhao couldn't grow to the point of being able to directly confront Hundred-Year Soul Beast in just one year.
With Level 7 Soul Power, he wielded his combat skills with considerable skill. His physical attributes were also comparable to those of Beast Martial Soul Masters of the same level.
But that's all.
Even though the Soul Beast he was facing didn't have a powerful bloodline, it was just a hundred-year-old Wind Baboon. Huo Yuhao still found it extremely difficult to dodge.
With Du Busi a torrent of Soul Power, like a train, instantly Wind Baboon flying an unknown distance.
"Sect Master?" Huo Yuhao stretched his limbs, revealing bloodstains and scars beneath his tattered clothes. His long eyelashes trembled as he looked at Du Busi with a puzzled expression.
"This training ends here."
Du Busi sighed inwardly, raised his large, fan-like hand, and gently rubbed Huo Yuhao's head. "Yuhao, would you be willing to become my disciple?"
Become an apprentice?
Huo Yuhao's body reacted faster than his mind. Upon hearing this, he immediately knelt down on both knees, "Yuhao greets teacher!"
"Haha, okay, okay..."
Du Busi looked intently at Huo Yuhao and admonished him, "Yuhao, you must remember, the Body Martial Soul is one family. I don't ask you to revitalize the Body Sect in the future, I only hope that no matter where you go or what stance you take, you will never forget that you come from the Body Sect, and you will never let the Body Sect be severed."
"Yes, teacher! Yuhao will keep it in mind!"
After giving Huo Yuhao his instructions, Du Busi turned to Huo Yun'er.
Over the course of the year, Du Busi gained a deeper and deeper understanding of Huo Yun'er.
A year ago, she was just an ordinary person with a little Soul Power. Now, with the various rewards from the Diary Copy, she should have no rivals at the Soul Elder level!
However, being merely Soul Elder is far from enough.
[Du Busi: Huo Yun'er, you'd better pray for yourself.]
[Huo Yun'er: I understand, Sect Master. Thank you for taking care of Huo Yun'er this past year. If I have the chance, I will definitely repay your great kindness!]
Huo Yun'er isn't exactly ungrateful; she's just love-struck. When it doesn't involve love, she's shrewd enough.
Now, even Du Busi, they can hardly protect themselves.
Huo Yun'er's future is no longer something the two of them can control.
Du Busi had already done more than enough for her and Huo Yuhao.
[Du Busi: Everyone, I don't know if I'll live to see tomorrow. If I do die, I hope you can help support the scattered members of the Body Sect. If they need the Body Sect's inheritance, they can take it!]
[Du Busi: I only hope that, ten thousand years from now, the world will still remember that a top-tier sect called the Body Sect existed ten thousand years ago!]
