Chapter 212 Xingluo settles the account, Fanyu urges again (Ch 212)

“…”
In the room, the only sounds left were Zhang Lexuan’s low sobs and Xu Cheng’s face full of emotion.
To be honest, this kind of thing is indeed extremely shocking to the Shrek leader who is so righteous and prestigious. Even most of the Shrek students probably can’t connect the two together.
However, Xu Cheng started investigating some questions he had after reading the original work in his previous life.
First, he confirmed Zhang Lexuan’s background, and then immediately sent Nana to the Holy Spirit Church to investigate the matter. Finally, after making some deals with the leader Zhongli Wu, he obtained these evil soul masters.
And on a deeper level, Long Xiaoyao is also involved.
After all, these “black gloves” were lent by him to his good friends.
“This world is not black and white. Perhaps he has regretted this matter over the years and has been tormented by it, but the fact is that he is indeed the culprit who murdered the Zhang family.” Xu Cheng patted the beauty on the back and said softly.
The description of Moon En in the original novel is quite positive, but people are changeable. He is not sure whether he is an upright young man who grows up to be a shrewd elder of the sect, or whether Moon En is a person who will do anything to achieve his goals.
Once looking at the world from Shrek’s perspective, Moon was naturally upright, but…
“I want to kill him and avenge the Zhang family…” Zhang Lexuan clenched her fists, her nails digging into the flesh, blood flowing down her white hands, but she didn’t notice it at all.
The beautiful eyes that used to be gentle and peaceful were now stained with bloodshot.
Why was she so loyal to Shrek Academy that she even abandoned her lover and returned alone?
It was because of the agreement I made with Moon.
She is Beibei’s child bride and also a member of Shrek.
The price was to ask the real enemy to kill a few “innocent people” in front of her.
The Zhang family is innocent, but in the eyes of these top beings, they are just tools that can be slaughtered at will and used to regain her.
It’s ridiculous that she was trapped in it all these years, thinking that her great hatred had been avenged, and then she worked for the enemy’s sect.
“What inner courtyard senior sister? I don’t care about her, wuwuwu…”
Zhang Lexuan covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down from between her fingers.
“Sister, this is also a kind of bondage…” Xu Cheng touched the beautiful hair of the beauty in his arms and exhaled softly, “In fact, Moon is not old anymore. I’m afraid he will die in the next two years. You must have known this better than me before you came…”
“…”
Zhang Lexuan paused, raised her head with tearful eyes, and looked at Xu Cheng, “Ah Cheng, I only ask you one thing,” she said, her expression gradually firmed up: “Recover Shrek Academy, pacify the continent, and complete the unification!”
“You’re right. Killing him would be too easy. I want his soul to watch helplessly inside the golden tree as the Shrek Academy, which he had worked so hard to protect, was breached step by step, just like when my adoptive parents died tragically…”
“After all, you were trained by Shrek, so is it appropriate to do this…” Xu Cheng raised the corner of his mouth.
“After defeating Shrek Academy, will you kill the ordinary disciples and inner court disciples except for the elders and the academy’s top leaders?” Zhang Lexuan asked back.
“…No.” Xu Cheng said after a moment’s hesitation.
Once the city is breached, those who should be killed must be killed, but not all of them will be massacred.
“As the senior sister of the inner courtyard, I have done my best. Giving them a decent exit is the only thing I can do.” Zhang Lexuan said with relief.
In fact, from the very beginning, she was aware of Xu Cheng’s command ability and the powerful background of the Sun-Moon Empire. The more she came into contact with him, the deeper this idea became. It was impossible for her to save the imperiled Shrek. The best she could do was to commit suicide as the commander-in-chief when the Sun-Moon Empire captured Shrek.
Now that I know this news, the burden on my shoulders feels a lot lighter.
“From now on, I will no longer put you in solitary confinement, and all Shrek people can move freely, but only within the Sun-Moon Empire. Remember to discuss this with me before you escape next time.” Xu Cheng teased.
“But will Shrek…take action against the exchange students from the Sun-Moon Empire?” Zhang Lexuan was both happy and worried.
Obviously he has a clear understanding of Yan Shaozhe.
“Something happened recently. Shrek said it wanted to establish long-term diplomatic relations with the Sun-Moon Empire and actively promote soul guide communication technology…” Xu Cheng smiled and handed her a daily newspaper.
“Speak human language!” Zhang Lexuan snorted, lay in Xu Cheng’s arms, and gently pinched her waist.
“I’m just afraid, aunt. You can continue to stay in Sun Moon for three years.”
“What about three years later?”
“Whether there is Shrek or not is a matter of debate…”
“Well, this happens to be a detention room. Do you want to try something different?”
“Ah Cheng, what do you want to do? No! Don’t tie me up, wuwuwu…”
…
“You mean, the provinces suffered heavy losses this time, and the dukes are all here to play the victim, saying that they hope the taxes to be paid this year can be cancelled?” Xu Jiawei said expressionlessly, staring at the ministers in the audience.
“Yes, Your Majesty. Yesterday alone, I received seven messengers. They were all the Duke’s confidants. I dare not tell a single lie.” The Prime Minister said with a wry smile.
“You said that more than 20,000 people were killed or injured in the imperial capital’s barracks in one day? But the barracks are on the north side of the imperial capital. Could it be that the Sun-Moon Empire made a big detour to the north to kill people, and then quickly went to the south to block me?” Xu Jiawei looked at the Minister of War again.
“Um… it’s like this, Your Majesty…” The old minister lowered his eyes slightly, staring at the ground with a guilty look on his face.
“Where is the body?” Xu Jiawei clenched his fists.
“They were destroyed in a mass destruction yesterday afternoon.” The old minister said calmly.
“Huh…” Xu Jiawei took a deep breath and looked at the last kneeling minister.
“Well, my dear, I can understand him for now. You said that the national treasury is empty. Dozens of ten thousand year soul bones were lost in one day, nearly 100 million gold soul coins, and some soul guides were missing. Why? Could it be that the Sun Moon Empire has the ability to travel through space? Can it appear in our national treasury without anyone noticing and steal all this?!!”
“Your Majesty, this is absurd, but it is true…” The Minister of Finance wiped the sweat from his forehead, “The Sun-Moon Empire’s latest concealed soul guide device can even block Shrek’s detection. It is not surprising that they sent several level nine fixed soul guide cannons to Shrek City and stole our country’s treasures.”
“Haha, hahaha~” Xu Jiawei sat on the dragon throne, his hair turned white overnight, and laughed happily.
This battle made him completely lose his dignity as an emperor. The Sun-Moon Empire pinned him down, stomped on him, and spat at him. As a result, all the dukes had their own thoughts. In the past, they were able to suppress these dukes purely because of the Consecration Hall and the Sun-Moon Empire’s extremely low-key attitude, but…
This battle also exposed two issues: the military was eating up the empty payroll and the national treasury was embezzled.
He looked coldly at the two people below the stage. These two important officials were most likely cronies planted in the court by the hidden clans. He didn’t expect that he would be wrong about them. But after a long time, he finally closed his eyes.
These two things are definitely inseparable from the aristocratic class. If he wants to retain the last bit of face as the emperor, he cannot reveal them and has to pretend to agree with them.
It seems that they think they can control him.
I want to…
“I understand. Although this matter is strange, given the strength of the Sun-Moon Empire, it is indeed possible.”
Xu Jiawei got angry.
Who made him such a soft persimmon now?
Only in the court.
A beautiful figure stood at the head of the group below, looking at her gray-haired brother and the turbulent court. A complex expression flashed across her beautiful eyes…
…
The Sun-Moon Empire Royal Academy.
Zhang Lexuan walked on the path, humming a little tune.
She gently stroked the soul guide storage ring, a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes. This was a strange thing she bought in a strange shop in the afternoon. There were prison uniforms, shackles, and some special torture instruments. Ever since she played cosplay with someone yesterday, she couldn’t stop, as if it aroused some strange desire in her heart.
Give Ah Cheng a surprise tonight.
A genuine smile flashed across his face.
“Le Xuan!”
“Big sister!”
Suddenly, two sneaky figures appeared on the side of the road. They poked their heads around and saw no one was around. Then they waved, motioning Zhang Lexuan to come over.
“…”
Zhang Lexuan raised her eyebrows, and her previous good interest was gone. She clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.
Since these two people came to her, she would see what good shit she could hold back.
“Le Xuan, you’re okay, that’s great!” Fan Yu said excitedly in a relatively quiet green belt under the shade of trees.
“Teacher Fanyu, is there something you want to talk to me about?” Zhang Lexuan said calmly.
“Uh…” Fan Yu felt something was wrong, but he didn’t think too much about it. Instead, he said quickly, “Mr. Mu’s critical condition has worsened. He said he has at most one month to live. He hopes you can go back to Shrek to see him for the last time. He has been thinking about you and has been muttering…”
I don’t give a shit about his life or death.
Zhang Lexuan snorted in her heart.
He did not show anything on his face, but hesitated and said: “But the Sun-Moon Empire has just issued an order requiring all Shrek students not to leave Mingdu before the end of the three-year period. If we do this…”
“Hey, it’s already this time, why are you still thinking about those trivial things? Besides, you can come back after everything is settled.” Fan Yu said earnestly: “I know you don’t want to leave here, but it’s not like you won’t come back…”
“So what you mean is to persuade me to escape from Mingdu?” Zhang Lexuan asked strangely.
“Mingdu doesn’t have a city wall. As long as you are careful when you escape, you won’t be caught. This is a map of the Sun-Moon Empire leading to the Mingdou Mountains. Be sure to take it well. When you get there, people from our Shrek Academy will guide you.” Fan Yu handed her a map.
“Have you reported this matter to the school?” Zhang Lexuan pondered.
“It’s the letter from the college.” Fan Yu said hurriedly.
“The last time you were arrested, you must have suffered serious injuries in prison, right?” Zhang Lexuan asked with concern.
“Hey, it’s all for the college, it’s nothing to mention.” Fan Yu smiled happily.
“Then you must be careful not to let your old injuries recur.” Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.
“Of course, of course. Don’t just stand there. Get ready and leave tonight. If you delay, something unexpected might happen.” Fan Yu urged.
“Well, Teacher Fanyu, you and classmate Moxuan must take care of yourselves as well.” Zhang Lexuan smiled gently, she was as beautiful as a painting, stunningly beautiful and charming.
Mo Xuan was stunned by what he saw.
“Hey, that’s the senior sister from the inner courtyard. Don’t think about it. You are just a toad wanting to eat swan meat…” Fan Yu glanced at the dazed Mo Xuan.
“Don’t think I don’t know why you reported her in the first place. Mo Xuan, you have good talent, but… you are not worthy of her, and the academy will not agree to this.”
Fan Yu patted Mo Xuan on the shoulder and turned to leave.
Mo Xuan was left alone, standing there for a long time.
…
Inside the laboratory.
Xuan Ziwen enthusiastically introduced Huo Yuhao to Zimu and Keke.
Zi Mu had a dead look on his face. Ever since Ju Zi left, no one could arouse his interest. However, he still greeted them in a friendly manner.
“Wow, you are quite handsome, junior.” Ke Ke puffed out her chest. She was not bad looking and there were people pursuing her in Mingde Hall, but most of them did not like her.
“Thank you, senior sister.” Huo Yuhao smiled shyly.
“Don’t underestimate Yuhao. He went to the Body Sect for further studies and just returned to the academy. He has started his second martial soul awakening. He is definitely the chosen one of our Soul Guidance Manufacturing Department!” Xuan Ziwen said excitedly.
“Moreover, Soul Sect masters at the age of thirteen did not become such masters by taking elixirs like you. They became such masters through real practice and down-to-earth work. The probability of them becoming Titled Douluo in the future is extremely high.”
Hearing this, Ke Ke’s eyes lit up.
The handsome boy has a bit of abnormal talent.
After all, a thirteen-year-old Soul Sect member is nothing in the Sun-Moon Empire, because most of them rely on elixirs and other things to get to that level. But if one can achieve that level through real practice like Xu Cheng, then that would be awesome.
Of course, from this we can also see that Keke is not actually rejecting Huo Yuhao, she simply rejects Shrek Academy.
“Sister Keke from Mingde Hall will protect you from now on. I know the Crown Princess…” Keke said with a smile.
“Are you talking about Sister Orange?” Huo Yuhao’s eyes lit up.
At that time, because of Xu Cheng, he had met Nana, Juzi, Meng Hongchen and other sisters-in-law.
“Oh, you know him too?” Keke was dumbfounded.
“Nonsense, he was recommended by His Highness Xu Cheng himself, and he specifically told me to teach him well…” Xuan Ziwen shrugged.
“Ahhh, so embarrassing…” Keke covered her face.
“Okay, you guys have a good time with each other. I have something to do, so I’ll leave first… By the way, Yuhao, follow Keke to learn some low-level soul guides. His Highness Ting said that before you went to the Body Sect, you were only a second-level soul guide. It’s still difficult to replicate a third or fourth-level soul guide core. Don’t be impatient.” Xuan Ziwen waved his hand.
“Don’t worry, Teacher Xuan. I will study hard and contribute to the soul guides of the Sun-Moon Empire!” Huo Yuhao’s face was serious.
“Where in the Sun-Moon Empire are you from?” Xuan Ziwen asked curiously before leaving.
“I am from the Star Luo Empire…” Huo Yuhao said.
Xuan Ziwen: “…”
