Before he finished speaking, the figure rose up again!
Shi Nian was horrified. He endured the severe pain and wanted to get up to avoid it, but Mu Rong Chen was too fast!
An icy blue afterimage flashed past and appeared in front of him. The right claw covered with ferocious dragon scales, with a biting cold air, grabbed his shoulder mercilessly!
"Not good!"
In a hurry, Shi Nian could only cross his arms, gather up the few remaining Soul Power, and block it in front of him.
"Stab--!"
The sound of sharp claws scratching flesh was heard.
Shi Nian's arms were instantly scratched with four scratches that were deep enough to show the bones!
The wound was full of flesh and blood, dripping with blood. What was even more frightening was that a thin layer of frost was spreading rapidly on the wound, and an extremely cold energy invaded his meridians along the wound, eroding his Soul Power and vitality crazily!
"Uh-huh!"
Shi Nian let out a painful groan and stumbled backwards involuntarily.
Before he could stabilize his body, the life-threatening dragon claw came towards him again with the roar of death!
At this moment, he was completely trapped in a passive and desperate situation, and he could only rely on his fighting instinct to resist with great difficulty.
"Bang!"
"Stab it!"
"Click!"
In the small courtyard, there were only the dull sounds of blows, the sound of sharp claws tearing flesh and blood, and Shi Nian's uncontrollable groan of pain.
Mu Rong Chen's attacks were like a violent storm, continuous and did not give Shi Nian any chance to breathe.
After more than ten rounds, Shi Nian, who was already at the end of his strength, could no longer hold on. Mu Rong Chen seized a flaw and struck a solid blow to the side of his face with an iron fist containing the ultimate ice-cold power.
"Bang!"
Shi Nian's head was violently thrown to the side, half of his cheeks instantly swelled up, and several bloody teeth flew out of his mouth.
His vision went dark, and he flew out again, fell heavily to the ground, twitched a few times, and could no longer get up.
He smiled and walked slowly to his side, shook his numb fist, and looked at Shi Nian who was on the ground like a dead dog, with a hint of disgust in his tone.
"Tsk, the bones are really hard."
Shi Nian was lying on the ground, breathing heavily. Every breath affected the wounds all over his body, causing heartbreaking pain.
It felt like at least half of the bones in my body were broken.
"You... who are you... what do you want to do!"
Shi Nian used his last bit of strength to squeeze out these words from between his teeth, his voice hoarse and angry.
Inexplicably, a Soul Ancestor broke into my house, and inexplicably, I was beaten up by him with inhuman strength. Now I feel full of grievances and suffocation!
"Haha, what do you want to do?"
Mu Rong Chen squatted down with a warm smile on his face, but in the eyes of Shi Nian, this smile was more terrifying than the devil:
"Didn't I already say that?"
"You, resign from your job as teacher Canghui Academy, and from now on, be loyal to me."
Mu Rong Chen stretched out his finger, gently patted Shi Nian's swollen cheek, and said word by word:
"How about it, now... are you willing to be loyal?"
"You..."
Shi Nian was suddenly so angry that he was shaking all over.
Let him, a veteran Soul King who is nearly forty years old and has been famous for a long time, be loyal to a boy who looks less than twenty years old?
This seems ridiculous no matter how you look at it! If word spreads, how can he still hang out in Soul Master World in the future?
"Who is the force behind you...?"
Holding back his anger, he asked in a deep voice:
"Even if you join, you have to let me know which force you are joining!"
In his opinion, the power behind the cultivation of such a monster boy must be Spirit Hall, Upper Three Sects, or even behemoths at the level of the royal families of the two empires.
If you can join this kind of force, it wouldn't be too shameful.
However, what Mu Rong Chen said next made him completely dumbfounded.
"I don't belong to any party."
Mu Rong Chen smiled and shook his head, stood up, and dusted himself off.
"Currently, we are building our own Academy. How about it? Are you interested in becoming the dean?"
"How about giving you double the salary and benefits of the Canghui Academy, so that you can manage enough training resources?"
Shi Nian:
"..."
The whole person was stunned, lying on the ground in a daze, forgetting the pain in his body for a moment.
Just because of this?
Just because you wanted to ask me to become the dean, I received such a severe beating tonight?!
The corners of his mouth twitched violently, and a ridiculous feeling surged into his heart.
"If you want me to go... you can discuss it..."
Shi Nian said almost with a cry:
"Huh! You don't have to beat me like this!"
"Haha, I heard that you are unruly and have a perverse personality."
Mu Rong Chen chuckled lightly, with a sense of matter-of-factness in his tone:
"It turns out that violence is the most effective way to solve problems. Now it seems that you are still easy to talk to."
Shi Nian was so angry that he almost spat out blood again.
Are you easy to talk to? You beat me half to death, can you be easy to talk to?!
Mu Rong Chen ignored his inner drama and walked to the stone bench beside him to sit down, crossed his legs and looked at him playfully.
"How are you thinking about it? Do you want to join actively, or... do you want to join passively?"
That relaxed and comfortable posture seemed to be inviting an old friend to drink tea, but the unabashed threat in his words made Shi Nian feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.
Shi Nian was silent.
He is not a fool and knows that he has no choice today.
The young man in front of him had a ruthless nature and strange strength, far beyond his imagination.
If you continue to keep talking harshly, there will only be one outcome - death!
Moreover, the conditions offered by the other party are indeed very tempting.
Double salary, sufficient training resources... and more importantly, a brand new Academy position of dean!
This means that he will have great autonomy and can teach and research according to his own ideas. This is much better than being a teacher at the Canghui Academy where he has to be constrained everywhere.
After a fierce ideological struggle, I finally made a difficult decision.
He struggled to get up from the ground, dragged his seriously injured body, knelt on one knee in front of Mu Rong Chen, and lowered his head that had been proud for decades.
"I, Shi Nian, would like to swear by Martial Soul'Remnant Dream' that I will be loyal to you from now on. If I violate it, Martial Soul will be broken and I will not die!"
Humiliating oaths came out of his mouth word by word.
When the last word fell, the whole person seemed to have been drained of all energy and energy, and he sat slumped on the ground.
Mu Rong Chen nodded with satisfaction, and the smile on his face became brighter.
However, just when Shi Nian thought this nightmare was finally over, Mu Rongchen's next move made his hair stand on end again.
Mu Rong Chen flipped his wrist, and a dark pill exuding an ominous aura appeared in his palm.
"Eat this."
