The Darkness Emperor had already evolved and awakened. Chen Fan still had not thought of a way to restore it the next time, unless his Darkness Power became even stronger.
Having the Blue Silver Emperor evolve a second time would make a complete revival no problem at all.
That was also what he looked forward to—the page of Imperial Script he would be rewarded with after completing the third mission.
He had a feeling that this thing would definitely provide him with tremendous help.
After telling Chen Fan the route, Tang Yuehua returned to the Royal Court Etiquette Academy.
When Chen Fan set off, she would leave with him as well.
Chen Fan arrived at a place called Blue Tyrant Academy.
He still had not forgotten Flender and Yu Xiaogang, who had fled earlier.
"What are you doing here? Students from other academies aren't allowed in." The Blue Tyrant Academy guard looked at Chen Fan and immediately spoke up.
Chen Fan could not be bothered to deal with him. He struck out directly, sending the man into unconsciousness.
After entering Blue Tyrant Academy, he found that its facilities were far more advanced than Shrek's.
There were also many more students inside.
Judging by the time, Flender and Yu Xiaogang should have arrived here as well.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar might have come too. Zhao Wuji, Dai Mubai, and the other former Shrek teachers would probably need a little more time to arrive.
Quite a few students nearby noticed Chen Fan. Seeing a stranger intrude, displeasure immediately appeared on their faces.
But before they could make a move, the Darkness Power radiating from Chen Fan frightened them into trembling.
They could not even stand up to confront him.
That icy sensation instantly robbed them of their will to fight.
Chen Fan questioned the terrified students along the way and arrived at a training ground.
Through his perception, Chen Fan sensed that the people leading the students in training inside included Yu Xiaogang and several Blue Tyrant Academy teachers.
The door was kicked open, and a surge of Darkness Power instantly invaded the entire venue.
In an instant, Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale.
He looked at Chen Fan, his eyes filled with astonishment.
What was going on?
How did this man know they were here?
Yu Xiaogang could not understand how his whereabouts had been exposed.
When they left, they had not told Zhao Wuji where they were going. He had only told Tang San that they were heading to the Heaven Dou Empire.
"What are you trying to do?" A Soul Emperor immediately stepped forward and confronted Chen Fan.
"This has nothing to do with you. I'm only here to look for a dog." Chen Fan looked at Yu Xiaogang and spoke calmly.
Yu Xiaogang knew that this man had come for him. He summoned his courage and walked up to Chen Fan.
"I already told you that Shrek is my territory now. As someone under my command, you ran around wherever you pleased. It seems you harbor rebellious intentions."
"I never said I had joined Shrek. I only went to help a friend temporarily." Yu Xiaogang looked at Chen Fan and stubbornly defended himself.
"So you recruited Shrek. What does that have to do with me, Yu Xiaogang?"
"Fine. Since that's what you're saying, there's nothing I can do."
Chen Fan had not expected Yu Xiaogang's skin to be so thick. In any case, he did not care about this good-for-nothing.
"Of course, if you need me, I'll contribute as well. But you can't expect me to do everything without giving anything in return." Yu Xiaogang suddenly spoke.
"What, do you want your Martial Soul to evolve too?" Chen Fan looked at him.
"I'm only asking for compensation. You want us to work for you, yet you won't give us any benefits at all. An organization like that won't last."
Chen Fan was just about to speak when the door he had casually closed was kicked open again.
A furious-looking woman strode in, accompanied by a bespectacled middle-aged man.
Wasn't that middle-aged man Flender?
After seeing Chen Fan's back, Flender was also given a terrible fright.
He stared at the scene in disbelief. Just like Yu Xiaogang, he could not understand how their whereabouts had been exposed.
"Who are you? Why did you barge into Blue Tyrant Academy?" Seven Soul Rings instantly appeared around the fiery woman. Soul Power erupted from her body as she glared forward in fury.
Chen Fan glanced back at the woman. This should be Yu Xiaogang's cousin, Liu Erlong of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"I'm naturally here to look for my people." Chen Fan said this to Liu Erlong.
"Your people? These two are both teachers at my Blue Tyrant Academy." Liu Erlong reacted, realizing that the man before her was the villain who had driven Flender and Yu Xiaogang into hiding.
"So you're determined to protect the two of them today?" Chen Fan looked at Liu Erlong and raised a hand, grabbing toward the front.
In an instant, Darkness Power condensed into a rope and directly bound Liu Erlong, dragging her over.
The speed was extremely fast. Before Liu Erlong could react, she was already restrained.
The next moment, she was beside Chen Fan.
"Er Long!" Yu Xiaogang shouted, his eyes widening.
Flender reacted the same way. Both men liked Liu Erlong deeply.
Many years ago, the three of them had even been known as the Golden Iron Triangle.
"What are you doing?" Anger immediately surfaced on Liu Erlong's pretty face. She glared at Chen Fan and spoke harshly.
Chen Fan did not answer her. He merely looked at Yu Xiaogang and Flender.
"See? Your actions have dragged another innocent person into this mess."
"You're talking nonsense!" Flender roared.
"Let her go. I'll go with you."
"How do I know whether you'll flee with her? Besides, haven't you always complained about things being unfair? Today, I'll give you part of your compensation in advance." Chen Fan looked at Flender as he spoke.
"?"
Flender froze upon hearing this.
Chen Fan, who was even stingier than him, was actually paying compensation today?
Liu Erlong tried to struggle and speak, but the Darkness Power had already immobilized her, leaving her completely unable to move.
She could only glare at Chen Fan with her wide eyes.
Chen Fan offered no explanation. He raised one hand and aimed it at Flender.
Then, with a rumble, a mass of Darkness Power was forcibly driven into the center of Flender's brow.
He froze for a moment, but in the next instant, he suddenly felt his entire body turn cold.
"Accept this power and pass its test. You'll become much stronger. That is your compensation." Chen Fan spoke slowly.
"If you pass, you might even become a Title Douluo."
Flender stood rooted to the spot, staring blankly at Chen Fan while feeling the ceaseless force inside his body trying to invade him.
What about mine? Yu Xiaogang asked inwardly before looking at Chen Fan.
"As long as the two of us work for you, you'll release her, right?"
Beside Chen Fan, Liu Erlong repeatedly shook her head, signaling Yu Xiaogang not to agree.
"There are indeed two of you, but I don't think you have any potential, so forget it. I think it would be better to have Liu Erlong and Flender become my subordinates. After all, they both possess the power of Soul Saints."
"As for you, your Soul Power is so weak that even if you obtained an evolution, improving it would certainly be extremely slow. So get lost. You're free now."
Yu Xiaogang froze on the spot when he heard this.
Was Chen Fan kicking him out of the Iron Triangle?
Liu Erlong and Flender were both startled.
But thinking about it, Yu Xiaogang really was completely useless. There was very little he could do.
"You..." Yu Xiaogang glared at Chen Fan furiously.
"I won't do anything for you." Liu Erlong's Soul Power erupted, smashing against the Darkness Power. She finally managed to speak.
"You'll accept all of this." Chen Fan said only that before releasing Liu Erlong.
Liu Erlong immediately went to Flender's side and asked whether he was all right.
Flender shook his head. "As long as I don't cultivate that power, it won't harm me. But what he said is true. This power can increase my strength."
Liu Erlong froze and glanced at Yu Xiaogang in the distance.
His expression was extremely ugly.
"If you can help me improve, I'll do anything for you without compensation and be your slave for the rest of my life." In the end, Yu Xiaogang still let out a sigh of relief and looked at Chen Fan as he spoke.
