Chapter 203: with translation of chapter title

"It's me." Mu En said lightly: "Poison Undying, your elder brother fell after fighting me back then. How, do you also want to follow in his footsteps?"

Upon hearing Mu En's personal admission, Poison Undying finally understood who his opponent was now, and a few beads of cold sweat actually appeared on his oily green forehead.

"It's really you? Why are you still alive? How could you possibly still be alive?!"

Mu En's voice suddenly became imposing.

"Of course I'm still alive. How, do you think that if I died you could wantonly bully our Shilake Academy?"

Poison Undying's expression changed repeatedly, finally he took a deep breath and said: "Dragon God Douluo, Huo Yutong's martial soul is her eyes; you should also know what that means. For a holder of the true body martial soul, only the True Body Sect is the true home, and she can only truly uncover her martial soul's potential within our sect."

Obviously, after discovering that using force to demand was futile, this True Body Sect sect master again tried to use reason to take the person.

A strange flicker passed through Mu En's eyes; according to his understanding of Poison Undying, this guy, though shameless and capable of many despicable acts, is extremely concerned about face, so he shouldn't be doing this kind of stubborn entanglement.

Is Huo Yutong that important to him?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Mu En said lightly:

"No need for you to worry, let me speak frankly: Huo Yutong has already been my disciple for over a year. You should know what stealing someone's disciple means in the Soul Master World. Please go back this time. Out of respect for your deceased elder brother, I won't hold it against you. If there is any further offense, I will personally go to your True Body Sect's gate to demand an explanation. I want to see how many of your True Body Sect will remain then."

Poison Undying asked in surprise: "She's actually your disciple?"

Mu En coldly retorted.

"That's natural. How, do you think you're more suitable to teach her than I am?"

"……"

Poison Undying fell into silence.

After a moment, he turned around and said:

"Dragon God Douluo, out of respect for you, today's matter ends here. Upright people don't do shady deeds, and I must also tell you: for this child, our True Body Sect cannot give up. Speaking of age, you are somewhat older than me; you should know that at our age we are already not far from our limit, yet our True Body Sect still has no inheritor to this day."

This time it was Mu En's turn to be surprised.

"How could there be no inheritor? Isn't the True Body Sect's seed of inheritance right within you?"

Poison Undying said with some regret:

"But our sect has had no suitable newcomers for nearly twenty years, and do you think the seed of inheritance can be passed on by just anyone? For now, that girl will stay one day at your Shilake Academy, and I won't move against her; but once she leaves Shilake Academy, we'll each rely on our own abilities. Dragon God, even if you're still alive, I don't believe my elder brother left nothing on you back then. I'm not your match, but if you want to kill me, the price you'll pay will certainly not be small. Shilake Academy's opponents are not just our True Body Sect; green hills remain, clear waters flow forever—we'll meet again."

Saying this, he let out a loud shout.

"True Body Sect, retreat!"

More than twenty figures swiftly fled into the air, vanishing in the blink of an eye; the golden light in the sky also gradually retracted, returning all the way to the Sea God's Pavilion.

At this moment, not only was there an uproar inside Shilake Academy, but the entire Shilake City was filled with discussion due to the previous miraculous situation.

Mu En said lightly: "Mei'er, Changlong, you are responsible for maintaining order at the academy; Lin'er, Duo Duo, you are responsible for Shilake City."

"Yes." The four deans together bowed to Mu En, then hurriedly left.

Next, Mu En turned his gaze to Tang Wulin.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you yet, Wulin—how did your harvest turn out on this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest?"

His gaze was clear, appearing unaffected by his recent move; Tang Wulin breathed a sigh of relief and then recounted his experiences in the Star Dou Great Forest in detail.

After listening, Mu En couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.

"Not bad—you not only successfully obtained your third soul ring, but also brought an excellent student to the academy? Crimson Dragon, that's a powerful martial soul."

"What do you mean?"

Facing Tang Wulin's puzzlement, Mu En explained:

"This Crimson Dragon is a kind of dragon, its attribute is extinction; in terms of rarity it is only slightly inferior to your extreme attribute, yet it is extremely powerful, capable of decomposing all energy in the world—even the extreme attribute cannot suppress it. Moreover, it has another strong point: once it hits, the energy the target expends in defense will far exceed the energy of this attack; if used properly, its power will not be inferior to an ultimate martial soul."

Upon hearing Mu En's explanation, Tang Wulin realized he had brought such a powerful talent to the academy.

Mu En smiled: "You've brought us such a great surprise; we should reciprocate. Yutong, show him the results of your recent fusion."

"Okay."

Huo Yutong lightly nodded; then a long scorpion tail grew from her back, curling around a nearby branch.

Under Tang Wulin's curious gaze, that branch was quickly dyed a greenish-blue by her, then she fiercely threw it far away; a burst sounded, and the branch actually exploded in midair.

Tang Wulin jumped in fright; this level of explosion isn't strong, at most equivalent to a second-tier soul artillery shell, yet it's counterintuitive for a branch to explode.

But he quickly reacted, looking at Huo Yutong with delight.

"Did you fuse that Ice Jade Scorpion left arm bone?"

Huo Yutong nodded, then shook her head.

"Sort of, but not quite the same."

Before Tang Wulin could ask, she explained: "I fused that soul bone with my Ice Jade Scorpion tail bone, so its ability is now applied to my Ice Jade Scorpion tail bone."

"……Can you even do that?"

Tang Wulin was somewhat dazed.

Mu En smiled gently: "Of course, after all they're both Ice Jade Scorpion power, from the same source, and Yutong's tail bone is of far higher quality than that left arm bone, so doing this little thing is quite simple."

If before Mu En wouldn't have done this, fearing to waste that rare soul bone, then once he learned the Ice and Snow Two Emperors were inside Huo Yutong's body, he would have no hesitation at all.

With the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion present, this soul bone fusion is fundamentally impossible to fail.
