Xuan Zi! Are You a Spy Sent by the Evil Soul Master Faction!

Because Lin Feng had given Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo a heads-up in advance, knowing what they would face upon their return, neither Zhang Lexuan nor Han Ruoruo had any desire to go back to Shrek Academy for the time being.

Whether it was the despair they felt this time or the potential begging for Profound Elder's forgiveness upon their return, it was all too terrifying for them.

The former had already left them with psychological scars. As for the latter, Zhang Lexuan felt her heart meridians might be damaged, and any slight thought of that experience afterward would leave her with no mood to cultivate.

Regarding Elder Mu's kindness to her, Zhang Lexuan could only say she was powerless.

The problem this time was too great. If Lin Feng hadn't appeared unexpectedly, they would already be dead. The moment she saw her life flash before her eyes, the Zhang Lexuan who was once loyal to Shrek had been nearly killed by the scheme.

Now, Lin Feng had also revealed the problems they would face if they returned. Knowing what Shrek would do, Zhang Lexuan had completely given up on them.

Zhang Lexuan was willing to trade her life for Shrek's kindness, but she couldn't let the people who had just pushed her through the gates of hell push her back in again to take the blame!

Especially after taking the blame, if Profound Elder were to ask her if she was still willing to believe in him, Zhang Lexuan truly didn't know how to answer.

If she said yes, would Profound Elder actively volunteer to help her with her ninth Soul Ring?

If she said no, it meant she hadn't forgiven Profound Elder, and she would probably have to kneel and explain herself to him. Killing someone shouldn't be so difficult, and bullying someone shouldn't be this extreme!

Furthermore, Han Ruoruo no longer wanted to return to Shrek Academy. With Han Ruoruo taking the lead, Zhang Lexuan, who knew she would most likely be morally blackmailed by Mu En into asking Profound Elder to overlook past matters, also didn't dare to return to Shrek for the time being.

"You're not going back, then? That's good. Two ladies, no, Miss Lexuan, I have a favor to ask of you." Zhang Lexuan's reaction didn't surprise Lin Feng.

The current Zhang Lexuan was different from the original story. In the original story, Zhang Lexuan had only nearly died once, whereas the current Zhang Lexuan had nearly died twice. Coupled with Lin Feng explaining the predicament she might face, even with her loyalty to Shrek, some things were difficult to let go of at this moment.

"What is it, just say it. If you hadn't shown up, Ruoruo and I would have likely become food for Spirit Beasts today," Zhang Lexuan said, her expression turning grim. Clearly, she hadn't yet recovered from the psychological trauma of nearly becoming Spirit Beast food.

"I recently want to go to the Sun Moon Empire to buy some medicine that can help people break through to Titled Douluo. However, high-grade medicine in the Sun Moon Empire is heavily regulated. Apart from the royal family and great nobles, those top-tier medicines are simply unobtainable. Therefore, I need Miss Lexuan's help."

Zhang Lexuan frowned upon hearing this. "Medicine to break through to Titled Douluo? With your talent, using medicine to reach Titled Douluo isn't a rational choice."

Lin Feng shook his head. "It's not for me. Someone under me needs it. I wouldn't go so far as to take medicine that damages my foundation."

The medicine to break through to Titled Douluo was naturally not for Lin Feng to consume. He planned to prepare it for Meng Shu.

The Dragon Duke and Snake Dowager's Spirit Fusion Skill made them comparable to ordinary Titled Douluo, but at best, they were only comparable. It could be said that as long as they encountered a slightly stronger Titled Douluo, Lin Feng would have to handle matters personally.

Lin Feng had no intention of personally handling every slightly larger issue, so it was very necessary for the Dragon Duke and Snake Dowager to improve their strength.

Coincidentally, during the period in Dou Yi when eating pills to level up wasn't yet popular, the Dragon Duke and Snake Dowager hadn't taken any pills that directly increased Soul Power. This meant they had no resistance to them, allowing for the possibility of a rapid surge in their strength.

However, even with a rapid surge in strength, given the Dragon Duke's cultivation as an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo, ordinary pills wouldn't be enough. To make their strength surge in a short period, they would need either immortal herbs or top-tier medicine from the Sun Moon Empire.

Those whose talent was already nearing its limit naturally didn't deserve immortal herbs. Therefore, the only remaining option was the pills from the Sun Moon Empire that could allow people with extremely poor Spirit quality to reach Titled Douluo.

Zhang Lexuan breathed a sigh of relief, realizing Lin Feng wasn't going to take the medicine to break through to Titled Douluo. She then shook her head helplessly. "Although I really want to help you, I don't think I can help with this. I'm not part of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family or a great noble."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng smiled. "The Imperial Family's Worship Hall in the Sun Moon Empire, its Grand Worship, Kong Deming, possesses a quarter of the Sun Moon Empire's royal bloodline and is the strongest person in the Sun Moon Empire. And his Title is Silver Moon, which is, coincidentally, your Spirit."

"As is commonly known, except for a very few mutations, Spirits are inherited from one of the parents. Miss Lexuan, if you were to release your Silver Moon Spirit in the Sun Moon Empire, do you think you would be considered a great noble of the Sun Moon Empire?"

Zhang Lexuan: "..."

Shrek Academy, Sea God's Pavilion.

"Xuan Zi, why did you come back alone? Where are Tang Tong and Lexuan?"

Sensing Xuan Zi's aura but not the aura of those twelve elite Shrek students, Mu En asked in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Profound Elder's face fell, and then he knelt down with a thud.

"Elder Mu! I'm sorry!"

Mu En's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but being an elder over two hundred years old who had seen many things, he suppressed the unease in his heart. "What happened?"

"Elder Mu! I lost them! I lost my twelve most elite direct disciples of Shrek!"

"What!" Mu En was shocked. He had seen many major events over the years, but he had never seen something like this.

A level ninety-eight person accompanying a group of students, and losing them? No one would believe such a story.

"Elder Mu! I'm sorry! I'm sorry to those students!"

"Tang Tong, Spirit Ancient Sacred Tree, reached level ninety in his early forties, possessing the best Spirit Ring ratio of two yellow, two purple, and four black. At his eighth Spirit Ring, he obtained an eighty-thousand-year Soul Bone after hunting an eighty-thousand-year Spirit Ring. He is destined to become a Super Douluo in the future, and there's a high probability he won't stop at level ninety-five."

"Xiao Yan, his Spirit is pure flame, and the temperature of that flame is extremely high. Although it hasn't reached Extreme Ice, it's already close. At thirty-three years old, he has already reached level eighty. He is also a seedling for becoming a Super Douluo."

"Yun Shan, Spirit..."

Profound Elder listed the talents of the Shrek students one by one. Most of them were destined to become Super Douluo, and the few exceptions were almost certain to reach Titled Douluo.

He continued like this until he reached Zhang Lexuan. "The child with the best talent is Lexuan. She's only twenty-four this year! Reaching level eighty at twenty-four, she's certain to reach Titled Douluo before thirty and Super Douluo before forty. In the future, she'll be able to cultivate to at least level ninety-seven and will be a pillar of Shrek's future!"

"I've ruined so many geniuses all at once, causing Shrek to face a generational gap! I am a sinner of Shrek!"

Profound Elder said with tears streaming down his face. When he spoke of Zhang Lexuan, even Mu En, with his centuries of composure, couldn't bear it.

"To lose Shrek's twelve most elite geniuses all at once, Xuan Zi! Are you a spy sent by the Holy Spirit Cult!"
