Three days had passed in the God Realm, which meant three years had gone by on the Douluo Plane.
Over those three years, rumors unfavorable to the Sea God spread across the continent, indirectly tarnishing Shrek's reputation even further.
Yan Shaozhe was frantic over this. He had even organized the Shrek Propaganda Corps several times, sending them throughout the continent to refute the rumors.
Yet no matter how eloquent Shrek's propaganda corps was, they could never avoid one central issue.
"Yan Shaozhe, your grandfather and grandmother are the two greatest Evil Soul Master leaders in the world today. What are you pretending to be some righteous hero for?"
That single sentence left the propaganda corps led by Yan Shaozhe utterly speechless.
He desperately wanted to deny that he was not the descendant of Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, but who would believe him?
After Mu En's funeral, Yan Shaozhe had been branded as someone from an Evil Soul Master family, a stain he could never wash away for the rest of his life.
With no other choice, Yan Shaozhe could only return to Sea God's Pavilion and seek out Xuan Zi.
When Yan Shaozhe saw that Xuan Zi had grown so fat he resembled a ball, constantly stuffing chicken legs, meat jelly, meat wraps, and all sorts of food into his mouth,
Yan Shaozhe was so furious he could barely breathe.
"Elder Xuan, the world outside is about to turn upside down. How can you still be eating?"
Xuan Zi said carelessly, "Shaozhe, with me here, Shrek will not fall."
"The outside world is already spreading rumors—rumors that Ye Xishui has become the Sea God's emissary! The entire world is in an uproar, the Sea God's faith is being shaken! Aren't you afraid the Sea God will punish us?"
