Xu Sanshi was going crazy.
He didn't even dare to imagine what his mother was going through at the hands of those Evil Soul Masters!
During the hunt for the Death God's emissary, Xu Sanshi had seen firsthand how Evil Soul Masters treated women. He knew that women in high positions could ignite a powerful sense of conquest in many people. The more noble a woman was when she fell, the more captivating the contrast became.
His mother was a princess of the Heaven Spirit Empire and the wife of the Mysterious Nether Sect's sect master. With all these titles, she would likely become the most sought-after target, drawing countless Evil Soul Masters who would stop at nothing to trample her.
Thinking of that possibility, Xu Sanshi's heart bled. He wanted to rush to the Heaven Spirit Empire right now and kill all those rampant Evil Soul Masters!
Unfortunately, with his strength, he would only be walking into his own death. Moreover, the biggest possibility was that once those Holy Spirit Cult Evil Soul Masters learned his identity, they might come up with even more cruel methods. For example, they might cripple his martial soul, stripping Xu Sanshi of his soul power and making him a cripple, and then force him to watch as the Heaven Spirit Empire's noble princess was brutally violated.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Sanshi rushed to the Sea God Pavilion at the first opportunity, begging Old Mu, Old Xuan, and Yan Shaozhe, the high-ranking members of Shrek Academy, to look at his situation and rescue his mother from the Evil Soul Masters.
Upon hearing Xu Sanshi's plea, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion looked at each other, not daring to express their opinions.
Besides the fact that Mu En had taken back all the power, the more important reason was that after experiencing various setbacks, they had also become a bit more sensible. They knew that in this situation, whatever choice they made would come at a price.
With Shrek Academy's current strength, they were simply not qualified to deal with the Holy Spirit Cult. If they insisted on causing trouble for the Holy Spirit Cult, it would only lead to heavy casualties for them.
But if they refused, then Xu Sanshi, a genius, would completely lose his loyalty to Shrek Academy, and even choose to withdraw from it, just like other students!
A student with such high talent, whose family had already been destroyed, was exactly the kind of student that Shrek Academy needed the most!
Therefore, it was better to first think of some way to placate Xu Sanshi.
Thinking of this, just as Yan Shaozhe was about to speak, Mu En, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly spoke first.
"Get up, Sanshi."
Xu Sanshi raised his head, his face a mess of tears and snot, looking utterly miserable.
"Old Mu, please, please help me! As long as you can rescue my mother, I'll do anything without hesitation!"
Mu En sighed deeply, stood up, walked over to Xu Sanshi, and pulled him to his feet, speaking earnestly.
"I am very sorry that such a thing happened in the Heaven Spirit Empire. I repeat, Shrek Academy and the Holy Spirit Cult are sworn enemies! We will never stand idly by and watch them run rampant on the continent!"
"Study at the academy with peace of mind. I will personally go to the Heaven Spirit Empire. No matter the cost, I will rescue your mother from those people in the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Hearing this, after a moment of stunned silence, a delighted Xu Sanshi suddenly knelt on the ground, his knees hitting the ground with a dull thud.
"Thud—"
"Old Mu! Waaah… Thank you! I will never forget your kindness! From today on, my life, Xu Sanshi's, belongs to the academy! If you need it, I'm willing to give my life for the academy!"
Old Xuan and Yan Shaozhe's expressions drastically changed when they saw Mu En agree to Xu Sanshi's request. They wanted to speak up and persuade Mu En to reconsider. Those fellows from the Holy Spirit Cult were truly not someone their current Shrek Academy could afford to provoke!
However, Mu En simply glanced at them, shutting everyone up.
While comforting Xu Sanshi, Mu En sighed inwardly, thinking that although Old Xuan and Yan Shaozhe had become smarter than before, it was only by a little bit.
With his reputation, wouldn't it be easy to ask for a woman who was insignificant to the Holy Spirit Cult? After all, he only promised Xu Sanshi to rescue his mother, not the entire Heaven Spirit Empire.
As long as Mu En spoke, not even Long Xiaoyao, let alone Ye Xishui, would refuse his request!
However, to avoid damaging his image in the eyes of the younger generation, Mu En still explained to Xu Sanshi.
"Sanshi, you also know that the current Shrek Academy is no match for the Holy Spirit Cult. Even if Old Mu and Old Xuan were to risk their lives, we definitely wouldn't be able to rescue the Heaven Spirit Empire from the Holy Spirit Cult's hands."
"To rescue the Heaven Spirit Empire, we must unite with other strong individuals. Therefore, I will have someone send the news to the Clear Sky Sect, asking the two Ultimate Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect to join forces with us at Shrek to deal with the Holy Spirit Cult. But before that, I can only guarantee that I will rescue your mother from the Holy Spirit Cult. The rest, I am afraid, is beyond my ability."
In reality, Mu En was very clear that those fellows from the Clear Sky Sect would never agree to his request.
If the Clear Sky Sect cared about the lives of ordinary people, then when the Sun Moon Continent collided with the Douluo Continent and a war broke out between the two sides, the Clear Sky Sect should have intervened instead of continuing to hide away in seclusion.
The reason he said this was simply to shirk responsibility.
If someone were to use this matter to criticize him in the future, he could simply say that he had requested the Clear Sky Sect to join forces with him to deal with the Holy Spirit Cult, but they had refused.
He would push all the responsibility onto the Clear Sky Sect!
Those guys, Old Xuan and Yan Shaozhe, really should learn from him how to be a good high-level official!
Although Xu Sanshi really wanted to ask Mu En to liberate the entire Heaven Spirit Empire, he also knew how difficult that would be. After only hesitating for a few seconds, he nodded heavily.
"That's already enough! As long as I can save my mother, I'll be satisfied!"
Would Xu Sanshi care about the lives of others?
Of course not!
He only cared about his family. What did the lives of the people of the Heaven Spirit Empire have to do with him?
Now that the Mysterious Nether Sect had been destroyed by the Holy Spirit Cult, except for his mother, all his other family members had died at the hands of those damned Evil Soul Masters. As long as he could rescue his mother, Xu Sanshi wouldn't care how miserable the others were.
Mu En looked at Xu Sanshi and pondered. He had previously secretly communicated with the Golden Ancient Tree.
Since the Golden Ancient Tree could restore his aging body back to its peak condition, then perhaps Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and young men like Dai Huabin, who had lost their ability to be men, could also be restored.
It was a pity that no matter how much Mu En pleaded, the Golden Ancient Tree didn't respond. This forced Mu En to give up and place his hopes on the legendary Celestial Herbs.
Now the royal family of the Heaven Spirit Empire had been slaughtered. If they could drive away the Holy Spirit Cult in the future and restore Xu Sanshi, could they make Xu Sanshi the emperor of the Heaven Spirit Empire and have him help Shrek Academy regain its reputation?
