Chapter 249 Support the scene
"So you came here this time to ask us to act out a play with you?"
Deep in the Xingdou Great Forest, where there were no outsiders, Gu Yue sat beside the Lake of Life. She was not wearing the silver veil she wore in the past. She stretched her bare feet into the lake, creating ripples. The three-eyed golden lion nestled beside her.
"Of course." Gu Yue touched the big head of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"I will let Di Tian notify everyone right away. You will lead the soul beasts to Shrek City then."
"Me?" Wang Nan was a little confused.
"Yes." Gu Yue looked at Wang Nan. "The soul beasts are very aggressive. With you leading them, they know how to strike with a certain degree of restraint. And they are not afraid of being hurt by the people from Shrek Academy."
"Okay." Wang Nan nodded without being polite.
Seeing that Wang Nan agreed, Gu Yue withdrew his gaze and stared blankly at the lake, not knowing what he was thinking.
……
In Shrek City, the elders of Shrek Academy were standing on the top of the city wall with Xuanzi. The aura of a Titled Douluo was unconcealed as it spread towards the direction of the Sun Moon Empire.
Even though they were still far away, the soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire still felt weak under the influence of the aura of so many Titled Douluo.
"As expected of Shrek Academy, it has been able to hold out for so long under the joint attack of the three national defense soul mentor groups."
Xu Tianyuan was wearing armor and looking at Shrek City in the distance.
“Although the Empire’s National Defense Soul Instructor Corps is concentrated here, Shrek City cannot be conquered easily.” Jing Hongchen was also standing aside.
"We must conquer this city no matter how difficult it is. Could it be that Master Hongchen is still thinking that Shrek City will fall without a fight?"
“How dare I? It’s just that Shrek City has stood for thousands of years. Its foundation cannot be underestimated.” Jing Hongchen seemed to be hinting at something.
Xu Tianyuan didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
"Rumble--"
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, a thunder suddenly sounded. The huge noise made everyone inside and outside Shrek City couldn't help but look up at the sky.
The sky above them was darkening at an alarming rate.
"Why is the sky cloudy?"
In the army of the Sun-Moon Empire, a soul guide spoke in confusion, and the next moment, his body unconsciously collapsed to the ground.
Originally, he was barely able to hold his ground against several Titled Douluo in Shrek City, and was only able to stand his ground thanks to the battle formation. But at the moment the sky darkened, even greater power descended from the sky, and he could no longer hold on and fell down.
Except for a few major national defense soul mentor groups, there were riots of varying degrees in the rest of the soul mentor groups.
"The entire army retreats, it's not right how dark it is now!" A faint light was emitted from Xu Tianyuan's armor. He looked up at the sky, his brows deeply furrowed under his mask.
And in this short period of time, the entire sky seemed to be completely covered by a curtain. Above the southern sky, a large area of black was surging towards this side like a wave, and several extremely strong spirit beast auras were looming in the black.
Du Bu Si and his men were lying in ambush in Shrek City. Noticing the changes in the sky, he couldn't help but look up. 'I don't know how many hundred thousand year old spirit beasts Qi Tian Douluo killed to trigger such a large beast tide.'
Despite being well prepared, the faces of Xuan Zi and others on the top of Shrek City all changed. For a moment, they didn't know whether these soul beasts were invited by Wang Nan to act or whether the Star Dou Great Forest really launched a beast tide.
Even Wang Nan, who was hiding among the soul beasts, did not expect that Di Tian would mobilize so many soul beasts. Except for the Ten Thousand Demon King, whose body was a plant and had difficulty moving, the other ferocious beasts had already arrived.
With such a scale, let alone acting, it is not impossible to confront the Sun and Moon Empire head-on.
But this was just a thought. After all, these soul beasts were only invited by Wang Nan to support the scene, and they only needed to play a show with the Shrek people. Given the relationship between Wang Nan and the Star Dou Great Forest, it was not a problem.
But if soul beasts were to participate in the war, casualties would inevitably occur. Neither Emperor Tian nor the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue behind him would agree to losing soul beasts in a war between humans.
This is enough for now. With a beast tide of this scale, the Sun-Moon Empire will have to believe it even if they don’t.
Seeing the soul beast getting closer and closer, and already being able to smell the fishy odor emanating from the soul beast in the air, Xuan Zi finally took a step and leaped into the air.
"Di Tian, are you in the Star Dou Great Forest going to break the agreement with Shrek?" Xuan Zi said as his eyes swept across the black cloud. He saw a familiar human figure standing in it, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
A tall figure appeared in the dark clouds, with long black hair draped behind him.
"Humph, it was you, Shrek Academy, who broke the agreement first and hunted down the 100,000-year-old soul beasts in our Xingdou Great Forest."
Actually, Di Tian was not very good at acting. He was afraid that if he continued talking, it would arouse suspicion from the Sun and Moon Empire, so he simply stopped talking and stretched out his hand to pat Xuan Zi.
"Moo-"
A roar was heard, and a huge bull-shaped light and shadow appeared beside Xuan Zi and rushed towards Di Tian.
"Is that Emperor Tian from the Xingdou Great Forest?"
Although Xu Tianyuan had heard a little about the several major soul beast settlements on the original Douluo Continent, and the name of Di Tian had also been circulated in Mingdu, it was the first time he saw Di Tian's appearance with his own eyes. He did not expect that Di Tian actually looked like a human.
"I have seen the Evil Lord once in the Demon Forest. The strength of this kind of soul beast is close to the Limit Douluo of human soul masters. I am afraid that the man in Shrek is no match for Di Tian."
A figure stepped forward, and she did not hide her face anymore. It was Feng Ling, the deputy leader of the Holy Spirit Cult. "I thought it would take some effort to break through Shrek City, but I didn't expect a beast tide to appear."
"The Shrek Academy claimed to be righteous and built Shrek City next to the Star Dou Great Forest, under the pretext of resisting soul beasts. Now it seems that it really deserves what it has done."
The person who spoke was also dressed in black. He was the Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng, who was worshipped by the Holy Spirit Church. Many people from the Holy Spirit Church came to attack Shrek Academy this time.
"It's just that the arrival of this beast tide is a bit strange." Jing Hongchen on the other side looked at the two figures fighting in the air, and he was not too optimistic.
"Is Master Hongchen afraid of the reputation of Shrek Academy?" Zhang Peng lifted the black hood on his head and glanced at Hongchen. "Or does the master think that Shrek Academy still has the means to control soul beasts?"
"Okay." Xu Tianyuan glanced at the people of the Holy Spirit Church calmly, and recalled the secret order from Xu Tianran before they set out. He narrowed his eyes slightly.
"No matter what the final outcome of the Star Dou Great Forest and Shrek Academy is, Shrek Academy will definitely be seriously damaged. My Soul Instructor Group is good at long-range combat. How about having Patriarch Feng lead the Holy Church to attack Shrek City?"
"Hmph." Feng Ling glanced at Xu Tianyuan and did not give a clear response. She just walked towards the military camp.
