Angel Soul Master, Man of Justice (Seeking Follow-up Reads, Seeking Recommendation Tickets)

Long Aotian and Princess Vina fell into deep thought simultaneously.

To be precise, they believed that Ye Que was not at fault at all; he even possessed a strong sense of justice and was a qualified Angel Soul Master.

Remnants of Martial Soul Hall... they had long since stopped viewing members of the Angel Clan as mere remnants.

The Angel Clan had the largest presence in the Heaven Dou Empire and acted as the empire's menders, silently taking on the responsibility of eradicating Evil Soul Masters and protecting the empire.

Without people like Ye Que, the empire would have been overrun by Evil Soul Masters long ago.

But they couldn't just let it slide; perhaps they would punish Ye Que by making him eat an extra dinner.

With that, Vina spoke up: "This is a matter for our Heavenly Soul Royal Family; what does it have to do with you? This Princess will remind you: the people of the Angel Clan are not remnants of Martial Soul Hall, and this Princess holds them in high regard."

"This incident was caused by you bullying the commoners of Heavenly Soul; all responsibility lies with you."

The Heaven Dou Empire was actually shielding remnants of Martial Soul Hall—they were in cahoots... Dai Yueheng sneered: "I understand now. So you still haven't learned your lesson from ten thousand years ago? Are you not worried about nursing a viper in your bosom?"

"Your Heaven Dou Empire has the most Angel Soul Masters; are you truly not worried about being usurped by the Angel Clan? Hehehe..."

Upon hearing this, Vina felt deeply disappointed in Shrek.

Beside her, Long Aotian was also highly dissatisfied with this sharp-tongued Shrek student.

The people of Shrek were simply too arrogant!

They needed to be taught a lesson.

Without hesitation, Long Aotian pressed the switch on the Soul Tool on the table, subjecting Dai Yueheng to a round of electrotherapy.

"Ahhhhh..."

Dai Yueheng's limbs twitched from the electricity, his face contorted, and before long, he was foaming at the mouth.

Princess Vina felt that Long Aotian was being too radical, yet she did not stop him.

Half an hour later, Long Aotian and Vina arrived at another interrogation room.

Ye Que and his companions were sitting quietly inside, awaiting the Heavenly Soul Royal Family's verdict.

Seeing the two enter, Ye Que and the others bowed in greeting.

"Your Highness, how do you intend to punish me?"

Ye Que did not beat around the bush and asked directly.

Princess Vina poured tea for them and said gently: "We have already investigated the ins and outs of the matter. We thank Young Master Ye and the students of Zhengtian Academy for the assistance provided to the public security of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"After our verification, it is confirmed that the Shrek students were the ones who bullied the commoners of Heavenly Soul first, and you all were forced to act to maintain order. Vina expresses her gratitude here."

"The consequences of this incident will be borne by the empire. Furthermore, considering your righteous actions, the Royal Family has decided to allocate twenty million Gold Soul Coins to assist Zhengtian Academy in its teaching efforts, hoping that more righteous Soul Masters will step forward when the people are in need."

Long Aotian also added with a smile: "Our Body Sect respects righteous Soul Masters like you, so we firmly defend the interests of the righteous. Even if the other party is from Shrek Academy, we will never back down an inch."

Ye Que's head was buzzing.

What on earth?

The Heaven Dou Empire was actually not holding him accountable; this didn't fit the style of the Royal Family at all. Could there be an ulterior motive?

He had no choice but to accept this goodwill.

Ye Que smiled: "Princess is truly a person of justice."

"Indeed! Thank you for clearing our names, Your Highness," Yu Mengdi said softly.

Ye Wuqing and the others also praised the righteous actions of the Princess and Long Aotian, feeling that the two were an incredibly perfect match.

They never expected the Princess to be such an upright person, making one want to befriend her.

Vina was nearly carried away by these compliments, a slight flush appearing on her delicate, pretty face.

She was blushing.

Of course, Vina had her own thoughts.

Shrek Academy was a terrifying ticking time bomb that the Body Sect could not handle alone; they needed more allies.

The strength of the Angel Clan was beyond doubt, and the strongest Six-Winged Angel was a god-level martial soul.

If the empire had an Angel Douluo as a friend, even Shrek would not dare to act rashly, and Evil Soul Masters would never be seen within the borders of the Heaven Dou Empire again.

She had investigated Ye Que's background: he was suspected to be a descendant of the Angel Legion, suspected to possess a Six-Winged Angel martial soul, and had a very mysterious origin and a very close relationship with Guangyu Douluo.

Vina was very willing to make such a friend.

Subsequently, Vina spoke: "Friends, why not join us tomorrow to visit the Body Sect? We can discuss the cultivation methods of different martial souls."

Long Aotian also chimed in: "Brother Ye, it just so happens to be the weekend, and the Sect Master is in the main hall; perhaps he can offer you some guidance."

Ye Que initially wanted to decline.

But thinking of the goodwill shown by Vina and Long Aotian, and that they did not treat him as a remnant of Martial Soul Hall, he nodded in agreement.

Needless to say, Yu Mengdi was eager to follow her Young Master to see the world.

Ye Wuqing and the others shared the same attitude, all wanting to see the foundation of the Heaven Dou Empire's protector sect.

Following this, Ye Que and his group were arranged by Princess Vina to stay at the best hotel in Tiandou City.

As for the Dai Yueheng brothers, they remained seated in the interrogation room, provided only with plain water and subjected to electric shocks whenever they disobeyed.

Until the teachers from Shrek Academy arrived, the two brothers would have to endure such days.

This was Vina's order, and also the empire's warning to Shrek.

No nation would allow its imperial authority to be challenged, and Dai Yueheng had happened to offend that very authority.

Unfortunately, this was not the Star Luo Empire; no one would grant them special treatment.

Inside the hotel.

With the effects of the alcohol having worn off, Ye Que sat in his room, reviewing the day's reckless actions.

It had indeed been reckless, but it had set a precedent—that Soul Masters with Angel Martial Souls were a group with a sense of justice, willing to protect the common people.

This behavior would be of immense help for gathering faith to achieve godhood in the future.

The Heavenly Soul Royal Family likely already knew his background, though they lacked concrete proof, yet Vina and the Body Sect held no malice toward him.

On the contrary, their attitudes were quite "friendly," as if they intended to win him over.

Ye Que pondered the idea of latching onto the Body Sect; Du Busi was a decent man, at the very least, he could be considered a hero.

As long as the Heaven Dou Empire harbored no ill intent, why couldn't this place serve as a temporary sanctuary?

Things had reached this point, so he might as well get some sleep.

Early the next morning, Vina personally had breakfast sent over to host the distinguished guests.

As for Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin, as long as they remained alive until their teachers arrived, that was enough; it was the perfect opportunity to give Shrek a show of force.

"Young Master, are we really going to visit the Body Sect?"

Yu Mengdi asked, blinking her beautiful eyes as she ate a fresh meat bun.

Ye Que slurped his soy milk with an expressionless face and smiled. "The Heavenly Soul Royal Family holds no malice toward us; we can be friends, and this is also paving the way for your future."

"Once you advance to the nine-ring level in the future, you can become a consultant for the Heaven Dou Empire and enjoy unparalleled treatment, so you won't have to flee from place to place."

Yu Mengdi thought the Young Master's idea was excellent.

Since the Heaven Dou Empire was willing to accept them and not treat them as remnants of the Martial Soul Hall, they could naturally build a rapport and gain an extra safe haven.

Shortly after, once Ye Que and his group finished breakfast, Princess Vina arrived at the hotel in person to escort them to the Body Sect.
