A Very Melodramatic Plot
Xiao Xiao knew that it was a terrifying organization composed entirely of Evil Soul Master, capable of committing all sorts of atrocities.
According to legend, almost no Soul Master who encounters Holy Spirit Cult Evil Soul Master ever returns alive. In all her years, she has never even seen Evil Soul Master, let alone had any contact with anyone even remotely related to the Holy Spirit Cult.
Ke Lin Ye's diary clearly links Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Outer Court, with the title of Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Cult.
That's Yan Shaozhe! He's a figure at the very top of the Shrek Academy, someone revered by all the students in the Martial Soul Department.
Xiao Xiao subconsciously raised her eyes and secretly glanced in the direction of the Martial Soul Department Teaching Building not far away, unable to suppress the shock in her heart.
She originally thought that Shrek Academy was the brightest and most righteous place on the entire continent, and the backbone of the fight against Evil Soul Master.
But now I realize that there are actually two people with deep ties to the Holy Spirit Cult hidden in the highest levels of this academy.
A Supreme Elder and a Holy Son—what is this? A den of Evil Soul Master disguised as righteous figures?
Xiao Xiao pursed her lips, quickly averted her gaze, and continued walking forward with her head down. However, her perception of the academy had quietly undergone a complete transformation.
Ning Tian and Wu Feng, who were walking at the back of the group, saw the contents of the diary in their minds at almost the same time. They both paused for a moment, but then continued to follow the group as if nothing had happened.
The two exchanged a quick glance, both seeing an overwhelming sense of shock and disbelief in each other's eyes.
Ning Tian comes from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. As the most core successor of the school in this generation, she has been exposed to the most top secrets of the continent since childhood. Her understanding of Yan Shaozhe is far deeper than that of ordinary students like Xiao Xiao.
That's a level 97 Super Douluo, one of the top powerhouses in the entire Douluo Continent.
Not to mention her, even the current sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would treat Yan Shaozhe with utmost respect.
But Lin Ye actually claims that this person, who stands at the pinnacle of the continent, is the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Cult?
Ning Tian was so shocked he almost burst out of his skin.
What is the Holy Spirit Cult? It's Evil Soul Master organization that all sects across the continent have joined forces to suppress; it stands in opposition to the entire Soul Master World.
Let alone Super Douluo, even an ordinary Soul Master who gets involved with the Holy Spirit Cult will be hunted down by the entire continent and never have a peaceful day.
Yan Shaozhe not only has connections with the Holy Spirit Cult, but has also risen to the position of Holy Son? If this gets out, the entire Douluo Continent will be turned upside down.
The two walked along, exchanging silent glances, but neither dared to utter a single word. They could only suppress the turmoil within their hearts, maintaining a calm facade as if nothing had happened.
Lin Ye remained completely oblivious to the turmoil in the minds of those around him, continuing to walk slowly forward, his thoughts once again lost in thought.
Yan Shaozhe, that guy, is the dean of the Martial Soul Department at the Shrek Academy. His Martial Soul is the Bright Phoenix, which is a top-tier Martial Soul.
Moreover, he is a level 97 Super Douluo. But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that he is a descendant of Ye Xishui, the leader of the largest Evil Soul Master on the continent.
However, this identity cannot be said to be Yan Shaozhe's fault; it's just that the plot is a bit melodramatic.
The grudges and conflicts of the parents' generation have nothing to do with the children.
But this guy has the top-tier Martial Soul, the Bright Phoenix Martial Soul, and Ultimate Douluo like Mu En as his teacher, yet he's still only a Super Douluo at his age.
It can be said that they have failed Mu En's cultivation and Shrek Academy's expectations.
Mu En wanted to cultivate Yan Shaozhe into someone like him, a pillar of Sea God who could bring absolute security to the Shrek Academy.
But he's only a level 97 Super Douluo; how can someone with that kind of strength shoulder the responsibility?
The Far North.
"Ye Xishui's descendants?"
Ice Empress's voice was filled with disbelief and surprise. As the two rulers of the Far North, she and Snow Empress had lived for hundreds of thousands of years and naturally knew everything about the top experts on the continent.
They were certainly familiar with the name Yan Shaozhe. He was a level 97 Super Douluo, possessed the Martial Soul of the Bright Phoenix, and Dean of Martial Soul Department at Shrek Academy. They knew all this by heart.
After all, at their level, any powerhouse above Super Douluo on the continent deserves their close attention.
Human powerhouses of this caliber pose a significant threat even to Ferocious Beast like them, which are hundreds of thousands of years old; they cannot afford to be careless.
But they never knew that Yan Shaozhe had such a hidden identity: the Evil Soul Master on the continent, and a descendant of Ye Xishui, the true ruler of the Holy Spirit Cult?
Ice Empress gasped and turned to look at Snow Empress. She saw that Snow Empress's beautiful face had lost its usual cold indifference, and her clear, icy eyes were filled with unconcealed shock.
Snow Empress had witnessed countless changes in the continent, but she never imagined that the Dean of Martial Soul Department of the Shrek Academy, known for its emphasis on light, actually had the blood of Ye Xishui, the leader of the Evil Soul Master, flowing through his veins.
This is an absolute joke! The descendant of the Bright Phoenix, renowned for purifying evil spirits, is actually a descendant of the leader of the Evil Soul Master?
Snow Empress lowered her eyes slightly, her heart already stirred with turmoil.
Who is Ye Xishui? She is a figure who stands at the pinnacle of Evil Soul Master across the entire continent, a person even Ultimate Douluo must be wary of.
His cultivation level was unfathomable, and he held the power of life and death over the entire Holy Spirit Cult.
As for Yan Shaozhe, her descendant, he became the core force opposing the Holy Spirit Cult and a high-ranking member of the Shrek Academy. The intricacies of this situation are probably far more complex than they imagined.
"No wonder Lin Ye said he was the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Cult,"
Ice Empress snapped out of his daze, chuckled, and said with amusement in his eyes, "With Ye Xishui, your position as Holy Son is quite legitimate."
"I just never expected that old man Mu En, who has lived his whole life, wouldn't even know the details of his own disciple. It's quite laughable."
Snow Empress remained silent, a glint of wisdom flashing in her eyes.
She curled the corners of her lips and shook her head. "No, Mu En definitely knows Yan Shaozhe's true identity, but what grudges and entanglements are involved is unknown. Didn't Lin Ye say there's a very melodramatic plot involved?"
Upon hearing this, Ice Empress realized what was going on. Yes, if Mu En didn't even know this, then he would be utterly useless.
How could someone who takes on a student and grooms him as their successor not know his background? Of course, they would investigate his entire family history.
Even if it's discovered that he's Ye Xishui's descendant, Mu En still wholeheartedly nurtures him, which makes things interesting.
Lin Ye said this was incredibly melodramatic, so they had no idea just how melodramatic it was.
After all, Lin Ye takes things very lightly. Even he called it melodramatic, so they didn't dare to even think about the grudges and entanglements involved.
