Yan Shaozhe was speechless.
The refined middle-aged man looked at An Zhen beside him.
Junior Brother, oh Junior Brother, you truly live up to your name!
"Is it the one behind Senior Medical Immortal?" Yan Shaozhe asked via spirit power transmission.
An Zhen nodded.
It was the first time Yan Shaozhe admired someone so much.
Based solely on aura perception, the woman behind Senior Medical Immortal Douluo was at least a high-level Spirit Douluo, and to be considered a successor by Senior Medical Immortal Douluo, she must be a highly talented healing-type Spirit Master, a favored daughter of heaven. Yet, such an existence, despite the age and strength gap, was directly taken down by his junior brother from scratch during the Soul Fighting Competition.
No, Yan Shaozhe suddenly remembered something and transmitted, "Junior Brother, did you give her an Immortal Herb?"
If that's the case…
An Zhen shook his head and transmitted, "I didn't give her anything. Bi Ji has a very good personality; she also knows about my other girlfriends."
Yan Shaozhe was completely baffled.
His junior brother's charm was actually that great.
Junior Brother, can you write a book about it?
Xu Jiujiu, who was standing nearby, was already stunned.
An Zhen hooked up with Bi Ji?
Right during the competition.
Their Xingluo Royal Family had tried all sorts of things—money, power, beauty—to win over the Medical Immortal Douluo's successor, but she had unceremoniously rejected them all. Yet An Zhen had managed to handle it in one go.
"What are you discussing?!" Medical Immortal Douluo naturally noticed Yan Shaozhe and An Zhen whispering to each other. "You two must give this old woman an explanation, give my disciple an explanation!"
"Teacher." Bi Ji pulled Medical Immortal Douluo's wrist. "You promised me you wouldn't make things difficult for An Zhen."
"Silly girl." Medical Immortal Douluo was very helpless. She usually seemed so astute and capable, completely unmoved by the temptations of worldly possessions, but why was she like a little simpleton in this matter, only thinking of An Zhen? What was so good about him?
"What about a proper status? What about a promise? He just had his fun and ran off. What's so good about a person like that?" Medical Immortal Douluo looked as if she was trying to hammer iron into a useful tool.
"An Zhen is very gentle," Bi Ji retorted. The mature older sister spoke earnestly, "Bi Ji doesn't need any status. As long as I can be by An Zhen's (Lord's) side, Bi Ji is already very satisfied."
She was a subordinate, and Lord Silver Dragon King was her master. How could a subordinate be on the same level as her master?
Medical Immortal Douluo's head ached.
She didn't forbid her disciples from falling in love or dating others. This was normal behavior, but not to love so humbly, especially when dating a young man with many girlfriends. The more you acted like this, the more the other person would feel you were easy to bully.
On the way here, she had educated her disciple on this issue, but with little effect.
Hearing their conversation, Yan Shaozhe looked at An Zhen in surprise.
No, Junior Brother, are you such a scumbag?!
And even though you're such a scumbag, there's still a girl speaking up for you.
"Senior Brother, I feel like you're thinking something impolite." An Zhen felt that Yan Shaozhe's gaze at him was filled with both disdain and admiration, two opposing emotions.
"No." Yan Shaozhe denied, the middle-aged man said righteously, "Junior Brother, you must take responsibility as a man!"
Yan Shaozhe could only say that.
He couldn't do anything about this matter.
A successor, that's almost like someone's daughter. You hooked up with someone's daughter and then ran off. Now they've come knocking, and we're in the wrong.
"Hmph." Carrying a dragon spear, Xian Lin'er, in her Azure Flame Dragon Spirit true body, descended from the sky. Dressed in azure dragon scale armor, she held a half-dead, heavily wounded Body Sect Titled Douluo, whose arm was missing, and whose body bore injuries from light and earth power. "A man's responsibility, Yan Shaozhe, I can't believe those words came from your mouth."
"Senior Medical Immortal." Xian Lin'er bowed slightly to Medical Immortal Douluo, speaking respectfully, "Please ascend to Sea God Island and wait for a moment. Teacher and the esteemed elders still have some matters to attend to."
"Good." Medical Immortal Douluo nodded gently. Just as she was about to call her disciple, she saw Bi Ji quickly run to An Zhen's side, anxiously asking if he was alright.
Medical Immortal Douluo: …
"It was Bi Ji's fault for letting Teacher find out." The intellectual and mature older sister, in front of An Zhen, was like a child who had done something wrong, lowering her head, "An Zhen, did I cause you trouble?"
Medical Immortal Douluo quickly walked forward.
If she stayed there any longer, she felt her heart couldn't handle the stimulation.
"It's fine." An Zhen gently stroked Bi Ji's cheek. "Tell me in detail."
"Yes."
The incident was very simple.
After that somewhat wild night before leaving, An Zhen left a mark on Bi Ji's neck. After the act, Bi Ji, tired from An Zhen's constantly refreshed stamina, was momentarily careless about the mark on her neck, and then it was discovered by Medical Immortal Douluo when she returned.
Suddenly discovering her fresh young cabbage had been encroached upon by a pig, Medical Immortal Douluo initially thought nothing of it; love between a man and a woman was normal. But when she inquired further and learned that the pig who encroached upon her cabbage had also encroached upon many other fresh young cabbages, and that her own disciple didn't even have a proper status, Medical Immortal Douluo became furious, declaring that this matter absolutely required an explanation from them.
Xu Jiujiu listened from the side, very puzzled.
Why did Bi Ji's love feel so humble?
The battle in the high sky was still ongoing, but the overall situation had long been decided.
Eleven Titled Douluo—such a number, even the strongest of the Three Great Empires on the Original Douluo Continent, the Star Luo Empire, couldn't produce. Truly worthy of being a major power comparable to Shrek Academy. But there are always people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains. Aside from the peculiar generation of the first Shrek, Shrek Academy had now reached its strongest comprehensive strength in tens of thousands of years, with a full two Limit Douluo powerhouses.
Mu En was brutally beating Poison Undying. The presence of the qiluo heart rendered most of Poison Undying's strength useless against Mu En, keeping him completely suppressed. Even in a state of full desperation, he couldn't shake Mu En in the slightest, and his earlier threat of retaliating against Shrek Academy was utterly impossible. If not for concern for Shrek Academy below, Mu En would have killed Poison Undying on the spot, instead of trapping him as he was now.
But Elder Xuan's opponent was not Poison Undying, so he had no such restrictions. He charged into the few Titled Douluo of the Body Sect like a hungry wolf entering a flock of sheep. His massive beast claws rose and fell, and the heavy force of the earth descended like a mountain. The Body Sect's level ninety-six Super Douluo, facing this attack, was still severely injured even when using his full power.
And this was a righteous group beating.
Shrek Academy had far more powerhouses than the Body Sect.
Time passed by minute by minute. The battle high in the sky was magnificent, but due to the generated airwaves and light flames, only rough outlines could be seen. Fearing that some of the powerhouses dispatched by the Body Sect this time might have powerful mental-type Spirits like 'Eyes' and 'Brain', An Zhen did not extend his mental force upwards, but instead watched quietly from below like other ordinary students. However, the Virtual World could, and it could also replicate the Spirits of those Body Sect members.
From time to time, a Shrek powerhouse would descend, carrying a body whose life or death was uncertain. Some Shrek powerhouses were also injured, but this was their main base, and there was also a Titled Douluo-level healing-type Spirit Master, Sea God Pavilion Elder Old Zhuang.
The sky gradually darkened.
Above Shrek Academy, golden and earthy yellow light still shone.
Until the last bit of dark green light faded, signifying that the battle had officially concluded. Body Sect Sect Master Poison Undying was defeated, his life or death unknown. Even if there were other Body Sect powerhouses who had held out until this point, they would face the heavy blows of two Limit Douluo.
An Zhen received a spirit power transmission and looked at Xu Jiujiu beside him. "Jiu Jiu, you go back and rest first. Bi Ji, you follow Jiu Jiu. Teacher called me for a meeting. I'll come to you two later."
"Okay." The two women nodded.
With a single Universe Shift, An Zhen's figure appeared at the entrance of the third-story building of Sea God Pavilion the next second. Pushing the door open, the originally spacious living room was now a bit crowded. One elder was missing from the long table, and Medical Immortal Douluo had pulled up a chair and sat by the door. On the other side, nearly ten heavily wounded individuals knelt there, bound by strange golden tree branches. They were missing arms or legs, their clothes disheveled, their auras powerful but extremely chaotic, as if they would die at any moment.
"Teacher." Under Medical Immortal Douluo's surprised gaze, An Zhen directly sat down at the last seat at the long table. "How are things?"
Medical Immortal Douluo:!
Was this An Zhen a member of the Sea God Pavilion?
Mu En raised his hand, and a purple light flew towards An Zhen, landing in his hand. It was precisely the qiluo heart. "Poison Undying is dead in battle. Not a single Body Sect member escaped. Except for those who died, they are all here."
"Then us?"
"With this old man here, what accidents could there be?" The unkempt old man took a bite of a chicken leg, saying with a beaming smile, "Two little fellows got a bit injured from the opponent's desperate struggle, but Old Zhuang has already gone to treat them. It's nothing serious."
If not for considerations of Shrek Academy below, one Limit Douluo leading Shrek's strong individuals could have annihilated the Body Sect, let alone with two Limit Douluo now.
"An Zhen." Mu En's benevolent gaze fell upon his disciple. "This matter originally arose because the Body Sect wanted to kill you and seize your treasure. How do you intend to deal with these Body Sect members?"
An Zhen turned to look at the Body Sect members. Their auras were very weak, looking half-dead. One or two of them, still with some breath, raised their heads, their eyes filled with hatred.
"Kill them." An Zhen's calm voice sounded. His dark eyes looked at Mu En. "If Elder Xuan hadn't been with me back then, if our academy didn't have two Limit Douluo powerhouses today, then I would have been killed, and Yu Tong would have been kidnapped by them."
"This is already an irreconcilable hatred; only the death of one side will end it. If we let these guys go today, it will be us who suffer in the future."
An Zhen would not gamble with his own safety and the safety of those around him on the conscience of others.
Especially a group of bandits.
