Then Ye Que raised his hand and pushed the Immortal Herbs and their seeds toward Du Busi. He picked up his tea and sipped it, blowing on it between sips.
He wasn't in a hurry. The initiative was in his hands.
The Body Sect couldn't refuse the Immortal Herbs or a legacy spanning ten thousand years. That was inevitable.
Give a gift before asking a favor. That was how you approached someone for help.
Ye Que figured that since he was being so straightforward, Du Busi would be just as straightforward in return.
No one could resist the temptation of becoming a Limit Douluo.
On the continent, there were only three Limit Douluos whose names were still known, and all of them had become top figures in the Soul Master World.
Du Busi wanted to settle accounts with Mu En and avenge his elder brother. He wanted the Body Sect to flourish once more. He couldn't refuse a kind offer.
No faction could refuse the seeds of Immortal Herbs.
If Mu En got his hands on them, that old man might even climb out of his chair and risk a trip to Star Dou Forest for the sake of Shrek's glory and status.
Even if he lost, Mu En could still say those words about not bringing shame upon his ancestors.
He had defended Shrek!
At that moment,
Du Busi gazed at the Immortal Herbs delivered right to his door. After pausing for just a second, he accepted the daunting task of working with Ye Que.
He laughed heartily. "You're so straightforward, young friend. How could I refuse your kind offer? With these things, I have hope of reaching the Limit, and the sect will flourish once again."
"I can't become a sinner in the eyes of the sect. I'll make the Body Sect bloom everywhere!"
Ye Que put down his tea and smiled. "There's no time to waste. Let's set out at once. I need to obtain two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings before the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament begins. Then I'll have Spirit Hall Academy compete again, and let the Six-Winged Angel crush Shrek!"
"Senior Du Busi, you'll keep the matter of the Immortal Herbs secret for me, right?"
He silently cast a glance at Dragon Subduing Douluo.
It wasn't that he distrusted him. It was simply better to be cautious. With a Limit Douluo here, Ye Que naturally felt much more confident.
Dragon Subduing Douluo immediately understood. He picked up his tea, took a sip, and said, "This tea's pretty good."
Du Busi rose from his seat and patted Ye Que on the shoulder. "When it comes to keeping my word, I'd say I'm no worse than Di Tian."
I thought you were about to say you were a noble dragon... Ye Que smiled. "Good. I trust your character, Senior."
Then Du Busi activated a soundproof barrier and told Ye Que and the others to wait there.
Suddenly, the bells of the Body Sect rang out.
Du Busi personally summoned the sect's experts.
Whether they were cultivating, practicing dual cultivation, or occupied with other matters, the experts all put aside what they were doing and gathered outside the main hall.
Five minutes later, Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng arrived with ten Titled Douluos.
These people were the Body Sect's accumulated strength over the years, each an outstanding figure among their peers.
The bigwigs still hadn't figured out why the sect master had rung the bell when Du Busi walked to the front with his hands behind his back and said coolly, "Everyone, I have something to tell you. We're going Soul Hunting. Just follow me."
"This matter concerns the survival of the Body Sect. No one is to treat it carelessly."
Golden Body Douluo clasped his hands and asked, "Sect Master, may I ask if we're going to hunt four Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts again?"
They had developed muscle memory by now.
The last time the Body Sect had mobilized with such fanfare was a thousand years ago, when the sect master had stormed into Star Dou to help a disciple obtain a Soul Ring, triggering a beast tide.
This time seemed to be the same.
The Body Sect really had no shame.
Du Busi glanced at Golden Body Douluo and said coolly, "The target is about the same. It'll be even more difficult than a thousand years ago, but this concerns the future of the Body Sect. Everyone, come with me. Friends from Spirit Hall will be assisting us on this mission."
Ye Que and the others walked over, making sure everyone got a good look at them.
Dragon Subduing Douluo planted his Coiling Dragon Staff on the ground, releasing the pressure of a Limit Douluo.
The Titled Douluos of the Body Sect present all changed expressions.
A... a Limit Douluo!
Among the descendants of Spirit Hall, there was actually still a Limit Douluo.
Then this Soul Hunting mission made sense.
That young man and woman must be the last bloodline of the Qian Family, the owners of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul who had recently risen to fame.
A Limit Douluo protecting them while they hunted Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings—what a grand undertaking.
A few minutes later, the Body Sect's experts set off in a mighty procession.
At that moment, the Ferocious Beasts deep within the Star Dou Core Circle had no idea that disaster would sweep over them again after a thousand years.
This time, they hadn't brought forty people, but they had brought nine Titled Douluos, three Super Douluos, and one Limit Douluo.
Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng, a rank 96 Super Douluo.
Body Douluo Du Busi, rank 98.
Guangyu Douluo, rank 96.
Dragon Subduing Douluo, rank 99.
It was no exaggeration to say this lineup could steamroll the Dou Ling Empire dungeon.
Shrek Academy, beneath the Golden Ancient Tree.
Mu En was sunbathing when he sneezed, looking a little puzzled.
"Though I'm injured, I'm still a rank 99 Limit Douluo. I shouldn't be catching colds like an ordinary person. Could some danger be approaching?"
"Brother Dragon hasn't been active either, and Xishui has been gone for years..."
Just as Mu En was frowning in concern, Yan Shaozhe came running over with a smile. "Elder Mu, Elder Xuan has led the inner court students to Star Dou to hunt Soul Beasts. This time, everything will go smoothly."
Mu En furrowed his brows and asked, "Shaozhe, how did your investigation of the Six-Winged Angel Soul Master go? I remember you were the one who went to pick up Dai Yueheng. Our academy even paid thirty million Gold Soul Coins before the Heaven Dou Empire agreed to let the matter rest."
Yan Shaozhe furrowed his brows and answered seriously, "I never met that Six-Winged Angel Soul Master. Both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Body Sect seem intent on protecting that person.
"What we can be sure of is that he belongs to the Qian Family. Only members of the Qian Family can be born with six wings; the Holy Angel Martial Soul is merely a degraded version."
"According to Dai Yueheng, that young man could overpower them despite being only a four-ring Soul Master. They did join forces against him, but there's no mistaking the suppression of the Angel Domain."
"Later, according to the information we obtained, this Soul Master is called Ye Que. He's now a student at Zhengtian Academy. He has the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul and the Angel Domain, and he may well have inherited the legacy of the Angel God. A Titled Douluo is protecting him."
After listening, Mu En sighed. "The Six-Winged Angel... After ten thousand years, have they appeared again? It seems our Supervision Group hasn't done its job. We disrupted the balance of yin and yang, and that's why the Six-Winged Angel was mysteriously born."
"Elder Mu, what is the balance of yin and yang?" Yan Shaozhe asked.
"The so-called balance of yin and yang means that powerful Evil Soul Masters have appeared again, and there's more than one. The continent's will gave rise to the Six-Winged Angel to maintain that balance."
"Evil cannot be completely wiped out, and neither can angels. When evil grows to a certain extent, an even more powerful angel will be born. That is the continent's balance of yin and yang."
"Alas, the Six-Winged Angel has no connection to our Shrek. If they were at Shrek, perhaps they could achieve godhood through their merits. I sorely miss the age when a hundred flowers bloomed, when angel Soul Masters suppressed evil."
