Tricking Aeon Out of Information! The Yuanen Family Exposed!

Bai Yuan walked out of the stone gate of the Life and Death Arena, Shen Yi was still standing outside.

The expression on his face still carried a trace of shock that he hadn't had time to recover from.

"It was resolved so quickly?"

Shen Yi's voice still carried a hint of lingering resentment.

"Judging from the fluctuations inside, the opponents Simulation in the Life and Death Arena are definitely not low-level. You actually defeated them so quickly."

She paused, as if she had thought of something.

No wonder the teacher told me to make friends with you.

Bai Yuan looked at her and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Shen Yi nodded, saying nothing more, as if he was processing the aftershocks of the battle.

Bai Yuan turned around and walked along the tree-lined path towards the dormitory.

Back in front of the dormitory building, Bai Yuan saw Gu Yuena sitting on the steps of the corridor.

Holding a blade of grass in his hand, he absentmindedly poked at the ants on the ground.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up at him and asked, "You've already finished your exams?"

Bai Yuan walked to her side. "Hmm."

Gu Yuena lowered her head and continued fiddling with the grass stem, as if she had nothing more to say.

Bai Yuan looked at her slightly lowered face, his gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny that he rarely showed.

What grand plan is this girl hatching now?

He looked away, asked no more questions, and turned to push open the dormitory door.

Gu Yuena did not follow them in; she remained seated on the steps.

It was as if that momentary lapse in concentration had finally been brought back to my senses.

Bai Yuan sat down on the edge of the bed and spread out his palms.

Core Flame appeared in his palm, and a golden flame burned quietly in the dim room.

The progress of the Core Flame remains completely unchanged.

He silently calculated in his mind:

What should we do next?

There's no news from the Golden Tree; the silence of the Plane Spirit still needs time.

He still needs to continue his cultivation and wait for that opportunity to arise on its own.

He put away the Core Flame, leaned against the headboard, and closed his eyes.

Let yourself sink into that lingering silence.

Outside in the corridor, Gu Yuena was still sitting quietly.

She was looking down, as if she was trying to think through her plan more thoroughly.

During the days the protagonist was in seclusion, she set three major tasks for herself.

First, seize the Golden Dragon King Divine Core.

The Golden Dragon King Bloodline within Tang Wulin is gradually awakening.

She had to get her hands on it before he fully matured.

The problem is, this is Shrek, where powerful individuals are everywhere.

She couldn't very well make a move in front of Yun Ming and Long Yeyue.

How about we trick that silly boy into going out someday?

He follows me everywhere I go now, it's so annoying.

Second, continue to extract information from Bai Yuan about the Aeon.

She had never seen that power before.

The Deity of the Divine Realm are powerful.

However, their strength is still within a reasonable range.

But the Aeon is different; it seems to be a being from a higher dimension. What if the lackeys of the Divine Realm return again?

She needs power greater than that of Deity to protect the Soul Beast Clan.

Bai Yuan knew that information, but he just wouldn't say it.

She needs to find a way to get him to talk.

Third, continuously promote one's position in the Spirit Pagoda, enter the Core Circle, build the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, and take revenge on humanity.

They planted the Dragon God Seed to control everyone who entered the Ten Thousand Beast Platform.

Gu Yue wants all of humanity to experience pain, fear, despair, and regret.

She doesn't want to Destruction humanity; she just wants them to understand that Soul Beast are not beings they can hunt and keep at will.

Bai Yuan will help her achieve the latter two goals; getting in touch with Bai Yuan will make things much better.

After all, he's currently riding high, and his status in the Spirit Pagoda is much higher than hers.

It also allows her to access more aspects that she cannot access.

She reflected on it for a moment.

One must not be deceived by the sweet words of humans; the responsibility of the Co-Lord of Soul Beasts is to revitalize the Soul Beast Clan.

She can't keep thinking about what he's doing, and she can't let her guard down just because he's helped her a few times.

Just because he laughed a few times doesn't mean he's human.

She has many things to do.

Gu Yuena clenched her fist, then slowly relaxed it.

She stood up, dusted off her skirt, and turned to walk towards her room.

As she reached the door, she paused and glanced at Bai Yuan's tightly closed door.

After a moment, she looked away, pushed open the door, and went inside.

The following day was a rest day.

Bai Yuan and Gu Yuena returned to the Spirit Pagoda and entered Leng Yaozhu's office.

Leng Yaozhu was sitting at her desk when she heard footsteps and looked up.

His gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment, then a slight smile curved his lips.

"Teacher, it's been a long time."

Bai Yuan stood in front of the desk.

Leng Yaozhu put down her pen and leaned back in her chair:

"Oh, you actually came out. I thought you were planning to stay at Shrek until graduation."

She stood up.

"Have dinner with me tonight."

Bai Yuan nodded:

"Okay, teacher."

Leng Yaozhu walked to the window, her back to them:

"The Leng Family has been overwhelmed with recruitment lately. Many geniuses have come, all because of you."

She turned around and looked at Bai Yuan.

"You've taken on so much work for me without me saying a word."

Bai Yuan smiled:

"It's what I should do, teacher."

Leng Yaozhu turned her gaze to Gu Yuena:

"Gu Yue, why don't you learn from your Senior Brother?"

Gu Yuena, who had been staring out the window in a daze, tilted her head slightly when she heard her name called.

Why would I copy him?

Looking at her like this, Leng Yaozhu spoke with a hint of seriousness:

"We must rank high this year."

Gu Yuena stuck out her tongue:

"I don't want to, otherwise I'd surpass my Senior Brother in no time."

Leng Yaozhu looked at her, the smile on her lips deepening.

"Okay, okay, I'll be waiting."

Her gaze returned to Bai Yuan:

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

Bai Yuan thought about it and decided to tell him about it.

Let's reveal our plans in advance. Information about a reclusive family might be an opportunity for the Leng Family.

"Yuanen Family."

Bai Yuan's voice was calm.

"I discovered a hidden family at Shrek, with the bloodline of the Titan Giant Ape, which has been kept hidden right under the nose of the Spirit Pagoda, undiscovered."

Leng Yaozhu put down her teacup, her voice carrying a rare hint of surprise:

"The Yuanen Family? I've never heard of them."

She leaned back in her chair, her gaze fixed on Bai Yuan's face.

"The Titan Giant Ape is a top-tier Beast Martial Soul."

"Such resources have been hidden right under the nose of the Spirit Pagoda, and have never been discovered?"

She paused for a moment,

Are you sure it's true?

Bai Yuan nodded.

"The Yuanen Family operates with extreme discretion. Core members rarely step outside the family's territory, and they do not engage in any marriage alliances, recruitment, or expansion."

Therefore, they are extremely well hidden. Not to mention the Spirit Pagoda, even Shrek Academy may not know their true nature.

Bai Yuan thought to himself:

If it hadn't eventually joined Shrek Academy, many people probably wouldn't even know it existed.

The Titan Giant Ape clan descended from the Beast Er Ming.

Back then, the Soul Beast Er Ming married a human woman named Xiong Xiaoling, and they had a child, thus creating this bloodline.

Because Er Ming claimed to come from Primeval Forest, the mother gave her child the surname "Yuan En".

More than 20,000 years have passed since then, and they have continued to exist as a reclusive family.

It was only recently that Shrek Academy discovered them and is now secretly in contact with them.

I think this is an opportunity!

Teacher!

A chance to stand on equal footing with the Qiangu Family!
