As his mind cleared, Wang Dong took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said clearly and firmly, "Dean, please lead everyone away first."
He knew better than anyone that the root of today's disaster lay in his inexplicable premonition and the ensuing unforeseen events.
He couldn't let his comrades and teachers perish because of him.
Those usually bright and lively eyes now held only an unwavering resolve.
Seeing the determination in Wang Dong's eyes, Cai Mei'er clenched her teeth, her nails digging deep into her palms, her face a mixture of heaviness and profound helplessness.
She took one last deep look at Wang Dong, then looked away with great difficulty.
She no longer looked at Di Tian's imposing figure, nor at Wang Dong's resolute expression, but simply squeezed out a heavy, iron-like word from her tightly pursed lips. "Go!"
She turned around first, never looking back, her figure resolutely disappearing into the woods.
The other students could only suppress their grief and anger, urge their Soul Power, and follow as quickly as possible.
However, just as their figures were about to completely disappear, Cai Mei'er gathered her Soul Power and condensed her last words into a single line, which she clearly transmitted.
"Senior Di Tian, Wang Dong is the current young sect master of the Clear Sky Sect!"
"Although today's matter arose from conflict, fortunately the auspicious Auspicious Beast was not harmed. I humbly beg you, senior... to show leniency!"
Shrek Academy and the Clear Sky Sect will remember this. If needed, please come to the academy to discuss it!
Seeing the Shrek Seven Devils completely disappear into the depths of the dense forest, the Scarlet King, enduring the discomfort of his severe injuries, turned his three heads towards Di Tian, a low voice rumbling in his throat. " Di Tian, were her last words... a threat to us? What do we have to fear from the Clear Sky Sect?"
Di Tian did not respond; the light in his golden eyes was deep and unfathomable.
The Scarlet King then turned his gaze to Wang Dong, who stood silently not far away with a furrowed brow. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes as he pressed, "What should we do with this kid? The one who attacked the Auspicious Beast earlier is definitely involved with him!"
Di Tian's gaze swept calmly over Wang Dong, then he simply said, "Bring him back to the Lake of Life."
This casual decision startled the Scarlet King. He hadn't expected that Di Tian would not only refrain from taking direct action but also bring him back to the Lake of Life. The Scarlet King instantly looked as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Di Tian knew the Scarlet King's temperament well, and in order to prevent him from asking too many questions, he unusually offered an extra explanation at this moment.
"This is the Lord's will."
Upon hearing this, all of the Scarlet King's unspoken questions and agitation were instantly suppressed.
Since it was the Lord's decision, he would naturally obey.
Wang Dong, who had been on edge the whole time, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Di Tian's words; at least he wouldn't lose his life immediately.
However, he was also wondering who this "master" that Di Tian was referring to was.
Isn't Di Tian, this Beast God, the master of the Star Dou Great Forest?
On the eastern side of Qingxian Mountain, on a vast plain where the three kingdoms of Sun Moon, Heavenly Soul, and Star Luo Empire meet, stands a majestic and imposing city.
Although a large number of Soul Tool are still operating around the city, continuously reinforcing and expanding it, a towering complex of buildings has risen from the ground in the central area of the city and has been officially put into use.
The city is named " Yong'an," meaning that the mainland will enjoy eternal peace and the end of war.
The highest authority of the Federation — the Federal Parliament —is located within this city of Yong'an.
Not far from the city's central council chamber, a uniquely shaped tower stands out, its body shimmering with a faint glow of Soul Power. This is the branch tower of the Spirit Pagoda, located in Yong'an City.
At this moment, the massive Teleportation Array array on the first floor of the tower suddenly lit up with intricate light patterns. As the space rippled slightly, several figures materialized and appeared on the Teleportation Array array.
Today happens to be the Federation's monthly parliamentary session, so many factions are using the Spirit Pagoda's Teleportation Array to travel to Yong'an City.
Having grown accustomed to teleportation, these powerful individuals were truly too lazy to fly anymore.
The group that appeared at this moment were members of parliament from the Sun Moon Empire.
As this group stepped out of the Spirit Pagoda, they instantly captured almost all the attention in the square.
Despite having encountered numerous powerful figures and various forces today, this group instantly ignited the crowd's emotions, with shouts and cries erupting one after another.
Amidst the crowd's excited expressions, the most frequently shouted words were "Tower Master" and " Your His Majesty Equal to Heaven."
The title "Tower Master" here naturally refers to Kong Xuan, the founder and first Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda Spirit Pagoda.
With the promotion of Soul Spirit technology, Kong Xuan's reputation is now known to everyone on the mainland.
Even Tang San, who became a god ten thousand years ago, is probably no match for Kong Xuan today.
The other title, " Your His Majesty Equal to Heaven," was also used to address Kong Xuan!
After leaving Dragon Valley, Kong Xuan fused with three Dragon King Soul Bone with vastly different yet incredibly powerful attributes, causing his Soul Power cultivation to erupt like a volcano, reaching the peak of level eighty-nine.
Even after focusing on consolidating that immense new power, just three months later, Kong Xuan's Soul Power broke through the Level 90 barrier!
Subsequently, Kong Xuan condensed his ninth Soul Ring in one go, becoming a Titled Douluo at the age of nineteen!
And the title Kong Xuan gave himself was "Qi Tian"!
After all, with such a divine weapon as the Ruyi Golden Cudgel in his hands, it was quite fitting for Kong Xuan to be given the title of Equal to Heaven (Emperor of Heaven).
After Kong Xuan returned to the mainland from overseas, he demonstrated his cultivation as Titled Douluo, and the title of Equal to Heaven Douluo naturally spread.
Looking at the excited shouts erupting from the crowd around him, Kong Deming couldn't help but show an undisguised look of pride.
He turned his head slightly, looking at his composed grandson beside him, his eyes filled with a smile and a hint of emotion, and said in a low voice, "If you really have this intention, then the position of the first Speaker of the Federation probably won't be available to that kid Xu Jiawei."
Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan simply smiled indifferently, "Grandpa, as you know, I have no interest in the position of speaker."
Kong Deming nodded knowingly, his pride even greater, but without the slightest surprise.
He knew better than anyone that his grandson was destined to become a god!
Compared to the gods, even the power of the Federation Speaker who rules the continent is indeed nothing.
Not far away, Xu Tianran, sitting in a wheelchair, tightened his fingers on the armrest almost imperceptibly for a moment, a complex and dark look flashing in the depths of his eyes.
Is the goal that one strives for with all one's might, even at great cost, something that others would consider utterly insignificant?
A bittersweet sadness quietly crept into his heart, but it was quickly suppressed by his usual deep composure and restraint.
The group did not linger outside the Spirit Pagoda. Amidst the rising cheers and admiring glances, they made their way through the surging crowd and steadily headed towards the Federal Parliament not far away.
With the Federation Parliament having been established for just over a year, there were countless matters to attend to, making the meetings naturally lengthy and tedious.
Kong Xuan's mind was indeed no longer on Federation affairs. If it weren't for the Spirit Pagoda's current crucial position, which required his attendance as the tower's master to demonstrate his commitment, he probably wouldn't have shown up at all for this kind of meeting.
The long meeting, which lasted the entire afternoon, finally came to an end.
As soon as Kong Xuan returned to the Mingdu Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, before he could even rest, Gu Yuena's figure silently appeared before him.
She still appeared aloof and ethereal, her silver hair like frost, but in her deep purple eyes, there was a subtle undercurrent of emotion that she could not completely suppress, revealing a rare sense of solemnity and urgency.
Upon seeing this, Kong Xuan's expression turned slightly serious.
For Gu Yuena to show such emotion and come to seek her out so urgently, the matter must be of great importance.
He asked directly, "What happened?"
Gu Yuena didn't waste any words, looking directly at Kong Xuan and saying, " Tang San has made his move."
