Will Xuan Zi Be Alright?

With this hoarse voice ringing out.

The corpses buried all around the cave began to swell and turn red at an alarming speed.

Even Zhou Yi's body, which Li Qiang had thrown over, started to rapidly expand and grow larger.

At this moment, Zhou Yi's skin was flushed with a bloody sheen, as if fire was burning beneath her flesh.

"Ah!!! Elder Xuan, save... save me!!!"

Zhou Yi let out a pained wail.

"No!!!!"

Xuan Zi roared with a hoarse, desperate cry, shaking the entire cave.

He wanted to rush forward and stop it, but had no idea how to resolve the problem with Zhou Yi's body. He could only watch helplessly as she swelled up like the corpses around her.

He let out a series of despairing, regret-filled howls.

Seeing this, Li Qiang revealed a smug, sinister smile.

Listening to Zhou Yi and Xuan Zi's desperate screams filled him with immense pleasure.

Yes, just like this.

Suffer! Wail! Then experience your body being blown to pieces in despair.

This is the art of explosion!

But this was just an appetizer.

After all, back then, they were threatened with having their martial souls crippled just for talking back. He had worked so hard to get into Shrek Academy, only for Zhou Yi to destroy everything with a single, casual expulsion.

Did Zhou Yi know the despair they felt back then?

Zhou Yi had ruined their lives, and they would take revenge a thousandfold.

Everything happening now was part of Li Qiang's revenge plan.

Including luring Xuan Zi into this cave filled with corpses.

He wasn't just going to take revenge on Zhou Yi, but also on the big shots standing behind her, backing her up.

If no one was secretly protecting Zhou Yi, then he would only kill her.

If someone was secretly protecting her, then he would lure both Zhou Yi and that protector into this cave piled high with corpses.

This was no ordinary cave, and the corpses inside were no ordinary corpses.

The cave had been meticulously arranged by him. The terrain was complex and the space narrow—if an explosion happened, there would be no chance to escape.

And the corpses hanging in the cave had been secretly moved here while the Death Envoy wasn't paying attention. These corpses were actually his corpse slaves.

Each one had a mark carved into it by him. As soon as he activated the Corpse Explosion Technique.

These marked corpses would immediately explode. Even if Xuan Zi put up a defense in the first instant, so what?

This wasn't just one or two corpses—there were tens of thousands of them.

Remember how in the original story, the Death Envoy's Corpse Explosion Technique only used a few dozen corpses and still left Xuan Zi overwhelmed?

If not for Huo Yuhao, Xuan Zi would have set a new record: leading a team to the Douluo Continent Soul Master Competition, wiping out Evil Soul Masters along the way.

But then letting a Soul King kill off both the current and next generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters.

Yet facing the consequences about to unfold, Li Qiang felt no regret.

He hated, he still hated!

Even though the Heavenly Curtain had already exposed what Zhou Yi did to those students, Xuan Zi still insisted on protecting such a morally corrupt teacher.

Anyway, Li Qiang was nothing but the resentment of those students Zhou Yi had expelled. Once Zhou Yi was dead, he would naturally dissipate.

Thinking this, a resolute, cold light flashed in Li Qiang's eyes.

Xuan Zi, huh? A ninety-eighth-level Super Douluo, right?

Since you want to be an accomplice to that vicious teacher Zhou Yi, then even if it costs him his life, he'll bite off a chunk of your flesh.

With that thought, Li Qiang fell completely into madness. Black qi surged out from him like a tidal wave.

Then, centered on him, a dense black aura gradually enveloped the entire cave.

Under the shroud of this black qi, the swollen corpses became even more violent.

Boom!!!

With the boost of this black qi, a thunderous blast rang out.

One violent explosion after another echoed through the cave. Terrifying blasts sent flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Not only that, the scattered flesh and blood after the explosion was highly corrosive. These fluids splashed everywhere like strong acid.

As the smoke from the explosions slowly cleared, Xuan Zi's clothes were shredded, his black hair stained with blood, and even one of his arms was blown off halfway.

Now, watching Zhou Yi, whom he was supposed to protect, die right in front of him, and with his own right arm half-destroyed, Xuan Zi let out a hoarse roar:

"Die, old man!!!"

Next, Xuan Zi's back arched violently, his muscles beginning to swell, and two horns sprouted from his head.

The two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red soul rings beneath his feet flickered rapidly like warning lights.

With a bang, a deep crater appeared in the ground beneath Xuan Zi, and at the same time, his body vanished from its spot.

Like a high-speed cannonball, he shot straight toward Li Qiang's position with a piercing sonic boom.

Xuan Zi was now utterly enraged. He was a dignified Level 98 Super Douluo, yet a Level 78 Evil Soul Master had killed the person he was supposed to protect right before his eyes.

Even one of his arms had been half-blown off.

Disgrace, utter disgrace!!!

How could Xuan Zi not be furious? He was determined to crush this vile Evil Soul Master to death!

And at this moment, Li Qiang, seeing that Xuan Zi had only lost half an arm, His eyes were full of regret, then a flash of madness flickered deep within them.

Facing Xuan Zi charging straight at him, Li Qiang didn't flee. Instead, he stood frozen in place, waiting for Xuan Zi to reach him.

"Bastard!!! Die for me!"

"Hahaha, come on then, come to hell with me!!!"

As his words fell, over a dozen corpses materialized beside Li Qiang.

Even in death, these corpses exuded powerful auras. The lowest cultivation among them during life was at least that of a Titled Douluo.

These were corpses Li Qiang had dug up from the burial grounds of major sects, the Holy Spirit Church, and even Shrek Academy, just in case.

The stronger the corpse's original strength, the more devastating the Corpse Explosion Technique's blast.

Now, with over a dozen Titled Douluo corpses and Xuan Zi charging furiously toward him, Even if Xuan Zi was a Level 98 Super Douluo, even if he didn't die, he would be crippled, reduced to a useless man who could only spend the rest of his life at the academy eating chicken legs.

"Ultimate, Corpse Explosion Technique!!!"

Under Li Qiang's activation, the corpses began to redden and swell at an alarming rate.

Even Li Qiang himself started to expand rapidly.

With a bang, A mist of blood exploded, completely enveloping Xuan Zi, who had just reached the epicenter of the blast.

"NO!!!!"

Shrek Academy.

Fan Yu looked at Qian Duoduo, who was staring at the Heavenly Curtain, and said with a worried expression:

"Ah, Dean Qian, what do you think has happened to Elder Xuan?"

"Elder Xuan still hasn't come back. Could something have gone wrong?"
