The Sacred Dragon's Final Charge

Mu En slowly opened his eyes. His eyes, which were originally dull and yellowish, became extremely clear at this moment, turning a deep blue, like the endless depths of the sea.

His gaze slowly shifted to Bei Bei, who was standing on the far left, and then moved laterally until he saw Tang Ya next to Bei Bei, and then Xu Xingyu and Wang Dong'er holding hands.

During this time, Mu En also saw the blue crystal at the center of the golden trident rune between Wang Dong'er's eyebrows, and thought to himself that she was indeed the destined one.

Ever since Xu Xingyu and Wang Dong'er came to the Shrek Academy, Mu En had paid some attention to them. Although Mu En didn't Xu Xingyu as much attention to Wang Dong'er as he did to Wang Dong'er, he still sensed that Wang Dong'er possessed a part of the power of Sea God Tang San from ten thousand years ago.

Considering that Wang Dong'er was from the Clear Sky Sect and that Xu Xingyu had secured the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal for her, Mu En was not surprised that Wang Dong'er was able to successfully activate the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal and obtain the scroll from that person from ten thousand years ago.

On the contrary, Mu En felt very gratified about this, because when he was observing Xu Xingyu and her group, he noticed that although Xu Xingyu were still a bit immature in handling certain matters, their values were much better than most people in the academy.

Compared to the academy's prevailing notion that Soul Master who doesn't cause trouble isn't a good Soul Master, they firmly believe in the principle of not actively causing trouble, but never being afraid of trouble.

Therefore, they are more tactful and capable in dealing with people's problems than most students in colleges, and they will never start a conflict with others over trivial matters.

To be honest, Mu En had long considered whether to change the school rule that Soul Master who doesn't cause trouble is not a good Soul Master, because he had also found that many students and teachers in the academy used this rule to do some very outrageous things.

However, because the vast majority of people at the Shrek Academy idolized the one from ten thousand years ago, Mu En didn't have the courage to tell anyone what was on his mind. After all, such behavior would be considered going against one's ancestors by most people.

However, Mu En was relieved that at least before his death he had planted the seeds that could change Shrek, and eased the previously antagonistic relationship between the Spirit Contract Pagoda and Shrek considerably.

If there's any regret he has about his life, it's probably about Ye Xishui. But right now, he has no power to interfere with Ye Xishui, so he can only go down and accompany his old friend Long Xiaoyao.

Although Mu En felt somewhat guilty for causing trouble for this generation, there was nothing he could do; reality was just that cruel.

At this moment, a smile appeared on Mu En's aged face, and a blush appeared on his originally bloodless complexion. At this moment, his spirits seemed to be lifted a little.

He spoke, "Do not grieve for my passing. Everyone, regardless of their status, must experience death. This is especially true for me, who failed to break through the limitations of fate to achieve God Position. Yet, even so, I am content with everything I have accomplished in my life."

"I have lived on this earth for over two hundred years, far exceeding the vast majority of humans. Such longevity, is it not something to be happy about? I have spent almost my entire life at the Shrek Academy, protecting the academy and watching batches of children like you grow up. This is my greatest pride. Seeing your vibrant energy makes my heart feel younger. Today, I am leaving, but I hope you will see me off happily. Looking at you, and all the students of the Shrek Academy, I can die in peace."

Upon hearing this, most of the people present could only suppress their grief and bid farewell to this guardian of Shrek. Yan Shaozhe and Cai Mei'er, who were standing behind Mu En, also knelt down at the same time, their eyes filled with tears.

To them, Mu En was not only their leader, but also their teacher and elder! The passing of a respected elder is always so heartbreaking.

What do you mean we shouldn't be sad about his passing?! If they don't feel grief in this situation, do they even deserve to be called human?!

As if in response to their thoughts, Bei Bei, who was already sobbing uncontrollably, suddenly shouted loudly, "Ancestor Xuan!!!"

Seeing this, Mu En looked at his great-grandson, on whom he had placed his hopes, and could see the reluctance in the other's heart. However, his own passing was an unchangeable reality. If he hadn't stopped Ye Xishui, who had come to Shrek in person, Shrek would have surely been Destruction by her.

Thinking of this Mu En forced himself to sit up and began to give instructions to Xuan Zi, Yan Shaozhe, Cai Mei'er, Xian Lin'er, and Qian Duoduo on the future direction of the Shrek Academy. Finally, he looked at the four children he had raised years ago.

Mu En looked most at his great-grandson Bei Bei, and after offering encouragement and entrusting him with something, he placed his hand on Bei Bei's head and began to inject all the Radiant Sacred Dragon bloodline in his body into his great-grandson's body in order to stabilize his great-grandson's Martial Soul Mutation.

After doing all this, Mu En looked at Tang Ya. Originally, Tang Ya's status as a former Shrek Academy student and the current head of the Tang Sect Clan was not enough for her to come here to see Mu En off. However, Mu En had specifically requested to see this great-granddaughter-in-law before leaving.

With a look of guilt, Mu En said to Tang Ya, "As the Sea God Pavilion Master, I sincerely apologize for everything that has happened to the Tang Sect. Ten thousand years ago, the Tang Sect was at its peak. It can be said that without the Tang Sect founded by our ancestor Tang San, there would be no Shrek's ten thousand years of glory."

"Over the past ten thousand years, with the continuous development of Soul Tool and the decline of talent within the Tang Sect, the Tang Sect gradually fell into ruin and was eventually invaded. Shrek Academy has always adhered to an impartial policy towards all countries on the continent, so the academy cannot do anything and cannot save the Tang Sect from its decline. But seeing the Tang Sect's decay pains me deeply. It was at my behest that Bei Bei approached you and joined the Tang Sect."

"I recently heard that you had to join the Spirit Contract Pagoda for the future development of the Tang Sect. Given the current situation of the Tang Sect, you did not make a mistake; in fact, it may be the best choice. Nevertheless, I hope you will not forget the glory of the Tang Sect in the past, and one day you will make the Tang Sect reclaim that glory. If you encounter difficulties in the future, as compensation for your past indifference, you and Bei Bei can seek help from the academy."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ya looked at the old man with tears streaming down her face, then knelt down and said, "Thank you, Ancestor!"

Mu En smiled at his great-grandson's wife. Although he felt somewhat sorry for Zhang Lexuan, his great-grandson had finally found a home.
