Yuanen Zhentian's eyes burned with fervor. The Demon Plane clearly lacked gods, and while his proposal was essentially a gamble with nothing to lose, the odds of success were high.

The resources of an entire plane—such a massive profit was enough to tempt anyone.

If the goal could be achieved, not to mention the share of resources, Yuanen Yehui would be able to cultivate without worry; she was, after all, another Limit Douluo in the making.

Just as he prepared to swallow his pride and ask Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao for help, a surge of immense soul power swept in from the horizon.

Upon gauging the cultivation foundations of the newcomers, Yuanen Zhentian's brows knit together sharply, and the words on the tip of his tongue were forced back down.

Five Title Douluos, three Super Douluos, and the leader, whose momentum was sharp and unstoppable, with a presence as vast as a mountain range—his cultivation realm was clearly even higher than his own. He was evidently a quasi-god.

Such a terrifying lineup, arriving precisely when the Yuanen Family had been invaded by demons and suffered heavy losses, made it impossible for Yuanen Zhentian not to be suspicious.

A flicker of wariness crossed his eyes. Subconsciously, he recalled the dirty dealings he had encountered while traveling the continent in his youth—back then, more than one soul master family had coveted his Titan Giant Ape martial soul, stopping at nothing to obtain his bloodline.

It was not that Yuanen Zhentian was narcissistic; within the family, not only were Yuanen Tiandang and Yuanen Yehui geniuses, but he was one as well.

He had broken through to Title Douluo at twenty-eight and reached the peak of Limit Douluo at forty-seven. This was why he was certain his eldest son, who was more talented than he, would break through to Limit Douluo before the age of fifty.

The Yuanen Family could be said to have an unbroken line of Limit Douluos; it was no surprise that some would target their ancestral martial soul.

It was not that he was maliciously speculating; Purple Phoenix was from the Phoenix Family, and his granddaughter, Yuanen Yehui, had met Purple Phoenix's disciple three months ago when she went to the Shangling City Spirit Pagoda to select a soul spirit.

Based on this, it was not hard to guess that Purple Phoenix was the Pagoda Master of the Shangling City branch of the Spirit Pagoda.

It made sense for His Excellency Judgment to have accepted a disciple with her and be stationed in Shangling City. Yuanen Zhentian was not surprised that the two had arrived in time to provide reinforcements.

But this group of visitors—Shangling City could not possibly field such a lineup. No matter how he looked at it, it felt as though the Yuanen Family was being targeted, with someone looking to loot a burning house and covet the Titan Giant Ape martial soul.

Killing intent surged in Yuanen Zhentian's heart. Just as he was focusing on how to respond, the group of powerhouses crossed the sky and landed before him.

The leader was a young man dressed in plain white robes, appearing to be no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight. His features were handsome, his brows and eyes gentle; he did not look like a powerhouse, but rather like an ordinary, refined scholar.

The young man smiled slightly, his voice gentle and carrying a natural air of distinction: "Your Excellency Zhentian, I am Yun Ming."

"Forgive my presumptuous arrival."

Sky-Prop Douluo Yun Ming!

Hearing the young man state his name, the vigilance in Yuanen Zhentian's heart eased slightly, and he cupped his hands: "So it is His Excellency Sky-Prop."

"I wonder..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a figure suddenly darted out from behind Yun Ming.

It was an old woman with frost-white hair and a hunched back, her face covered in wrinkles.

Her expression was gloomy, and her turbid old eyes stared fixedly at Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao, her tone carrying undisguised hostility: "Leng Qingning, Le Lingzhao, you two juniors, why are you here?"

Seeing this, Yun Ming's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and he immediately scolded: "Yue'er, show some respect!"

Cai Yue'er's cultivation was not high, and her vision was limited; she clearly could not see the true cultivation levels of the two women before her. However, Yun Ming knew clearly that Leng Qingning was already a level 99 demigod, and Le Lingzhao was already level 98, with faint signs of a breakthrough.

Both were top-tier powerhouses on the continent and could not be easily offended.

He was also very surprised; six years ago, both women had been half-crippled. How could they have recovered to normal in just a few short years, and even surpassed their former selves?

Although puzzled, the Phoenix Family and the Angel Family were not like Qiangu Dongfeng, who was full of hostility toward Shrek Academy; they were neutral-leaning-toward-friendly factions. He could not allow Cai Yue'er to act recklessly and cause trouble for no reason.

Moreover, their rash arrival was already abrupt. If he continued to indulge Cai Yue'er's rudeness, it would inevitably cause Yuanen Zhentian to harbor resentment and ruin the original intention of their long-distance rescue.

Scolded in public by Yun Ming, Cai Yue'er's body stiffened, and her face was instantly filled with grievance.

For so many years, Brother Ming had always been gentle and tolerant toward her; when had he ever been this fierce to her?

But seeing the unquestionable, hard-line attitude in Yun Ming's eyes, even though she was full of unwillingness, she could only retreat reluctantly.

Cai Yue'er retreated behind Yun Ming, still holding her head high, staring at Leng Qingning and Le Lingzhao with a gloomy expression, without the slightest intention of apologizing to Yuanen Zhentian.

Watching this scene, the corners of Yuanen Zhentian's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Yue'er, Cai Yue'er, Silver Moon Douluo!

Silver Moon Douluo Cai Yue'er—he instantly guessed the identity of the old woman before him.

This Silver Moon Douluo was also a long-renowned powerhouse on the continent, yet in front of Yun Ming, she displayed such a girlish posture. Especially that face, which looked older than his own, it was truly hard to keep a straight face.

Seeing Cai Yue'er staring at her like that, Le Lingzhao did not give her any face at all, the corner of her mouth curling into a faint sneer: "Looks like your skin is itching for a beating again?"

These words were like a spark falling into a powder keg, instantly igniting the anger Cai Yue'er had suppressed for many years.

Her face instantly became ferocious, and she pointed at Le Lingzhao, screaming: "It's you, it really is you! Those dead ghosts are all dead, why aren't you dead yet!"

Cai Yue'er had always been arrogant and domineering, with a perverse temperament; naturally, she could not keep her resentment bottled up inside.

Ten years ago, during the Abyss riot, she represented Shrek Academy to provide rescue to the Blood God Legion. Everything had gone smoothly, and seven months later, when the riot subsided, she could have returned in triumph with the glory of Shrek, infinitely glorious.

But it was precisely at that time that Leng Qingning broke through to Super Douluo.

In her life, Cai Yue'er hated two people the most.

One was Holy Spirit Douluo Yali, who had snatched away the man she loved most, Yun Ming, leaving her to pine for him her entire life.

She had always felt that her soul power stagnating at level 96, unable to make any progress, was because of this lingering regret.

The other was Leng Yaozhu, who had also once been infatuated with Yun Ming. Unlike her, Leng Yaozhu had let go of her obsession and became the Vice Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda, a renowned and glorious Four-Word Battle Armor master on the continent.

Losing to Ya Li, she was unwilling; losing to Leng Yaozhu, she was even more resentful.

Now, even Leng Yaozhu's niece could successfully break through to become a Super Douluo and advance steadily, while she remained stagnant; how could she possibly accept this?

Consequently, she began finding fault with Leng Qingning at every turn, hoping to teach her a lesson.

Leng Qingning naturally wouldn't indulge a crazy old woman, so she fought back.

As a result, something even more unacceptable to Cai Yue'er occurred.

Having broken through to the ninety-sixth rank Super Douluo level decades ago, she was actually unable to do anything to the newly ascended Leng Qingning, and was even cornered and beaten into a pulp by a group of people outside the Blood God Legion's base.

Because it was too humiliating, she didn't even wait for the Blood God Legion's disbandment order and slunk back to Shrek Academy that very night.

At the time, she guessed it was done by those friends of Leng Qingning, but lacking evidence and facing a large group, she was helpless on her own and could only bury her resentment deep within.

At this moment, Le Lingzhao's admission completely ignited her madness.

Shrek Academy is the number one academy in the world, and the glory of Shrek must not be desecrated by anyone!

What of the Angel Family? What of the Phoenix Family? What does it matter if they are alive? What does it matter if they are dead?

Cai Yue'er's eyes were bloodshot, her breathing heavy like an ox, and only endless rage remained in her mind:

Declare war on the Phoenix Family!

Declare war on the Angel Family!

Declare war on the Hongchen Family!

Declare war on the Xu Family!

Declare war on the Yu Family!

Declare war on the Shen Family!

Declare war on the War God Temple!

Declare war on the Spirit Pagoda!
