We absolutely cannot attack the Body Sect for Chen An's sake!
Upon Yan Shaozhe's words, the Shrek Academy executives present either frowned, nodded, or remained expressionless.
After a few breaths, Xuan Zi spat out the chicken bone in his mouth and said in a deep voice, "Yan Shaozhe, Chen An is a peerless genius valued by Mu En."
Yan Shaozhe, "Xuan Zi, it's true that Chen An is an unparalleled genius, I admit that, but Chen An is now the Young Sect Master of the Body Sect and the personal disciple of Du Busi."
Even if we pay a huge price to take Chen An back from the Body Sect, will Chen An really be grateful to the academy and loyal to it?
Upon hearing this, Xuan Zi fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Xuan Zi remained silent, Yan Shaozhe immediately knew that Xuan Zi must have taken his words to heart, and so he pressed on.
"Chen An is Body Martial Soul Master, so he is naturally close to the Body Sect. The academy can't compare to the Body Sect in this respect."
Nearly a month has passed since Chen An disappeared. In that month, Chen An has probably already been brainwashed by the Body Sect and become a member of the Body Sect.
If we attack the Body Sect now, Chen An will probably only harbor hatred towards the academy.
Bringing Chen An back to the academy with this mindset would be a ticking time bomb, potentially detonating at the Shrek Academy at any moment.
Therefore, I think it's best to reconsider the matter of attacking the Body Sect and bringing Chen An back later.
Yan Shaozhe said it was a matter for long-term consideration, but in essence, he rejected the plan. He phrased it so euphemistically simply because he didn't want to refute it.
To save face for Xuan Zi.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Huiqun said, "Yan Shaozhe is right. Chen An no longer belongs to the Shrek Academy. Furthermore, the outcome of attacking the Body Sect is uncertain, and the consequences of failure would be too severe."
Fにう
Elder Zhuang said, "That's right, Yan Shaozhe is right."
Elder Song sighed, "What a pity for Chen An."
After a moment of silence, Xuan Zi sighed, "Yan Shaozhe, is this truly the only way?"
Yan Shaozhe said helplessly, "Xuan Zi, I know you feel guilty, but the situation is beyond our control. We can't gamble the lives of so many people at the Shrek Academy on whether Chen An is loyal to the academy."
Xuan Zi picked up the wine gourd from his waist and gulped it down.
After finishing his drink, Xuan Zi slammed the gourd heavily onto the conference table.
"In that case, let's begin the vote! Raise your hand if you agree with Yan Shaozhe!"
I second that!
I second that!
I second that!
66
Eight of the nine Shrek Academy executives present raised their hands in agreement.
Seeing this, Xuan Zi said, "In that case, let's do as Yan Shaozhe says."
After saying this, Xuan Zi picked up his wine gourd, got up and left, just as he was about to walk out of the Sea God Pavilion.
Xuan Zi turned to Yan Shaozhe and said, "Yan Shaozhe, the aftermath of Chen An's matter is now in your hands."
Yan Shaozhe immediately knew that Xuan Zi wanted to relinquish his responsibilities, so he cupped his hands and said, "Xuan Zi, rest assured, leave it to me."
After Yan Shaozhe returned home, Cai Mei'er asked her husband, "Yan Shaozhe, the academy is no longer planning to attack the Body Sect. What are your plans for handling Chen An's matter?"
A sharp glint flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes.
"Chen An has unparalleled talent and is very likely to become Limit Douluo in the future, and he will be Limit Douluo who can Golden-Level Body Martial Soul Second Awakening."
Their strength is likely even greater than their teacher's at his peak. Given the relationship between the Shrek Academy and the Body Sect, Shrek Academy's future is probably in danger.
Cai Mei'er's pupils constricted sharply, and she asked in surprise, "Yan Shaozhe, do you mean assassinate Chen An?"
Yan Shaozhe shook his head. "What you can think of, the Body Sect can certainly think of as well."
I think that before Chen An has acquired enough power to protect himself, Du Busi will definitely not let Chen An leave the Body Sect.
Even if one's cultivation reaches a bottleneck, requiring the hunting of Soul Beasts to acquire Soul Rings, one is forced to leave the Body Sect.
Given the importance that Du Busi on Chen An, the protection around Chen An must have been extremely meticulous.
It's highly likely that Du Busi personally intervened to protect Chen An.
Under these circumstances, attempting to assassinate Chen An is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Cai Mei'er said coquettishly, "Then what do you mean?"
Yan Shaozhe's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "The most powerful thing in the world has never been just force."
After pondering for a moment, Cai Mei'er raised an eyebrow. "Given the strength and style of the Body Sect, rumors, threats, and attempts to kill with flattery are unlikely to work. Wait, you're not thinking of using love, are you?"
Yan Shaozhe countered, "Why not? If Chen An falls in love with a girl from the Shrek Academy in the future, how could he possibly harm Shrek Academy?"
In his youth, the teacher was an absolute genius; at eighteen, his cultivation had reached an astonishing level sixty-nine. But even the most talented can succumb to love—"
In the end, Yan Shaozhe felt it wasn't appropriate to discuss his teacher's private relationships from his youth behind his back, so he immediately changed the subject.
"In short, I am certain that Chen An cannot stay in the Body Sect for the rest of his life."
As long as he leaves the Body Sect, Shrek Academy's intelligence network spanning the Douluo Three Kingdoms will surely be able to obtain the information.
Then, let the most outstanding and beautiful girl in the academy get to know Chen An and win his Chen An!
Then Chen An would no longer be a threat to the Shrek Academy.
Just as Yan Shaozhe and Cai Mei'er were discussing, a ball of light descended from the Divine Realm into the Clear Sky Sect Douluo Continent.
Within the ball of light, there were not any rare treasures, but a stunningly beautiful girl with pink hair—
Meanwhile, in the valley of the Body Sect, inside a wooden pavilion.
A girl with rosy lips and white teeth, dressed in a pale yellow princess dress, as delicate as a porcelain doll, reached out her small, fair hand and handed a fine wooden box to a black-haired boy.
"Chen An, these are pastries specially made by a royal-level pastry chef from the Heavenly Soul Empire. Would you like to try them? They're delicious!"
The little girl blinked her big eyes, and her voice was soft, delicate, and sweet, as melodious as a nightingale's song.
Anyone who sees her would feel an irresistible urge to protect her.
The little girl was Vina, and the boy was Chen An.
"Vina, Vina."
Chen An took the box, opened it, and then took a bite of the crystal-clear, jelly-like pastry.
It melts in your mouth, sweet and delicious, but not cloying; instead, it has a refreshing fragrance.
The taste was indeed quite good, and Chen An immediately gave a thumbs up in approval.
The reason Chen An was here was because Du Busi felt it wasn't good for Chen An to keep cultivating with this old man. He wanted Chen An to interact with people his own age and also cultivate his own team.
And so, Chen An attended classes with other children of the same age from the Body Sect during the day, and only cultivated with Du Busi at night.
Upon hearing this, Vina happily replied, "I'm glad Chen An likes it. I'll have the imperial chef cook it for you every day from now on."
Just as Chen An was enjoying the snacks...
A dozen meters away, Qian Renxue sat in a chair, crumpling the papers on the table filled with notes into balls, her large golden eyes fixed on Vina and Chen An.
No, what's with this Vina?
