Chapter 260: Ten Thousand Mirrors Sect

~13 min read 2,594 words

Without evidence for anything, even if you know the truth, you are powerless.

I, Su Yu, am no saint, but if I find out who he is, I will kill him without hesitation!

Only the dead can keep a secret forever; I believe the other party holds this same view.

It seems this is a game of Werewolf, only looking at the current situation, I, Su Yu, have instead become the prey.

"Who is the prey is not yet certain. What if the hunter is the one who gets killed in return?"

Su Yu slowly organized his thoughts; ever since returning from the Extreme North, he seemed to have missed many things.

Looking at the recent situation, the Star Luo Empire needs someone to carry the banner for the younger generation of the Three Great Empires, and Shrek Academy also intends to facilitate the relationship between him and the Star Luo Empire. Since this is everyone's wish, why not maximize the benefits?

Shrek Academy.

"This is already the thirtieth match, I'm exhausted, damn it, what kind of hellish mission is this! But I've only won... matches..." Luo Jing looked at his record in pain; fifteen matches a day was enough to leave him half-dead, the consumption was immense, and that was without counting the injuries, treatments, and a whole series of other problems.

Treatment is fast, but Shrek is heartless! No matter how rich his family is, it can't withstand such reckless spending, and his family isn't exactly extremely wealthy either, incomparable to that guy Su Yu, so he had to save Gold Soul Coins wherever he could.

"Congratulations to the host, mission completed, now beginning to distribute rewards."

A new surge of power suddenly poured into his previously exhausted soul power, allowing the somewhat lethargic Luo Jing to slowly recover to his peak state.

Luo Jing, Level 64 Support System Tool Soul Emperor, first martial soul, Qingzhou Ruler, soul rings: two yellow, two purple, two black.

Second martial soul Blue Silver Emperor, no attached soul rings. No soul bones, no external soul bones.

In just six short days, Luo Jing went from a Level 60 Quasi-Spirit Emperor without attached soul rings to a top-tier Level 64 Twin Martial Soul Soul Emperor.

"If there is a chance, I must attach Beast soul rings to all of my Blue Silver Emperor's soul rings, otherwise, if they are all just 100,000-year ones, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat that guy Tang San."

Luo Jing secretly planned his future in his heart; his first martial soul was a very miraculous one. Due to a lack of understanding regarding the Qingzhou Ruler, Shrek defined it as a Support System Tool Martial Soul. In fact, the nature of the Qingzhou Ruler was similar to Cao Jinxuan's martial soul.

Due to Shrek's incorrect classification, the effects of most of Luo Jing's first five soul skills were auxiliary in nature.

Sixth soul skill, Back from the Brink. Allows him to immediately recover to 80% of all states at his peak moment, can only be used twice a day.

For a time-type martial soul, the best use is to slow down the opponent's time and accelerate one's own, thereby creating a massive time gap, then killing with a single blow, or directly erasing the time segment of the opponent's existence, making them disappear completely...

There are many ways to use time; his strength is currently low, but if he achieves Title Douluo, he might be able to create a heaven-shaking divine skill of reversing time.

Although before that, this main account of his is considered half-ruined...

"Mission: Accept the mission of a Shrek Inspection Team member, complete the graduation assessment within half a year. Mission completed: soul power increases by five levels, reward: one soul bone. Mission failed: soul power decreases by five levels."

The road is long and the burden is heavy...

…………

"Have you heard? The Three Great Empires plan to join forces with Shrek to carry out a rescue operation. As for the candidates for the rescue, it hasn't been decided yet, but I think there's a high probability I will be chosen." Wang Dong'er looked at Su Yu and spoke slowly.

Su Yu nodded, "Let me correct you: not a high probability, but certain. Do you think that as one of the Shrek Seven Devils, they would leave you behind?"

Looking at the bustling Shrek City before him, at this moment, Su Yu only felt his pressure growing heavier. He tried his best to get rid of many things that should have been absurd, but history was still constantly correcting itself.

The Extreme North is still relatively stable for now, but the war between the Sun Moon Empire and the Three Great Empires is unlikely to be delayed for too long. Causing trouble in Mingdu, hoping to take advantage of the chaos to eliminate the new generation of leaders of the Sun Moon Empire, and causing massive destruction in Mingdu after nightfall.

Any one of these things, taken alone, would be enough to serve as a pretext for war.

It is just a pity that, due to the pressure at the time, the Title Douluo of the Three Great Empires and Shrek were forced to retreat. Who could have imagined that all their backup plans at the time had been completely seen through by Luo Yu?

Negotiations cannot solve the problem because the Three Great Empires are unwilling to bow their heads.

The Three Great Empires hope to keep their main figures, but the price they offered is still not enough.

"What? Listening to your tone, you don't want me to go?" Wang Dong'er looked at Su Yu's slightly furrowed brows; she faintly sensed that Su Yu had something on his mind.

Gently holding Wang Dong'er's palm, Su Yu sighed and spoke slowly: "In the current situation, even if we are sent, it will be of no avail. No one can succeed in saving people when the Sun Moon Empire is already prepared and working in league with the Holy Spirit Cult. Even if we aren't the main force, there really isn't much chance of success this time."

"Do you think Xuan Lao and the others' plan will have complications?" Wang Dong'er trusts Su Yu, and she also trusts Xuan Lao.

His gaze swept across Sea God Island, the scenery was bright and sunny, "Although Xuan Lao's plan is feasible, they all overestimate us and underestimate Luo Yu of the Sun Moon Empire."

"You mean..." Wang Dong'er's eyes sharpened, as if she had guessed something.

"The Sun Moon Empire is about to make a move. If the Three Great Empires are still unwilling to negotiate properly, this rescue mission will likely be the fuse for war. Moreover, the situation of your group will not be very good; there is even a high possibility that you will die in the Sun Moon Empire."

If Wang Dong'er really went, the outcome would be no better than Qiankun Wenqing Valley. Now, having Huo Gua and the others go to save people without Xue Di and Electrolux is no different from walking into a tiger's den, throwing their lives away for nothing.

"But, I..."

Su Yu reached out and gently pulled Wang Dong'er into his arms, whispering in her ear: "I cannot stop this rescue operation, but I can keep you by my side. No one can force you to go, but I can force you to stay by my side!"

Wang Dong'er felt Su Yu holding her tighter and tighter, as if he were afraid she would disappear in the next second.

"What about Xuan Lao..." Wang Dong'er comforted Su Yu, gently patting his back.

"Let them worry about it themselves. Let me be selfish for once, okay, Dong'er..."

…………

"This time, you will go to the Sun Moon Empire as the vanguard. Do not use force unless necessary. Once you discover the stronghold where they are being held, you must report it in time. This time you have the Three Great Empires and the various sects as reinforcements, so once you identify the stronghold where they are held, they will immediately set off to meet up with you."

At this moment, the gathered crowd assembled on Sea God Island. This rescue operation is a massive gamble; if the rescue succeeds, the Three Great Empires will have no more worries and will no longer be held back by the Sun Moon Empire.

However, if it fails...

"Xuan Lao, Wang Dong'er is gone..." Huo Yu Hao's mouth twitched as he looked at the empty seat.

"Where is she?" Xuan Lao looked at the vacant spot in confusion.

"She was taken away by Su Yu. He said such a dangerous operation cannot let Wang Dong'er risk her life, so..." Bei Bei silently took out Su Yu's letter and handed it over...

Xuan Lao quietly finished reading the letter, and his originally glowing face turned dark.

"Forget it, forget it. Given the reasons of the Star Luo Empire, it's inevitable that Su Yu would have such thoughts. You aren't the main force this time anyway, let him be. However, this is the only time; don't think about deserting."

Xuan Lao put away the letter, his heart already beginning to greet Xu Jiawei's family.

Su Yu is currently the only person in the Three Great Empires who has a hope of catching up to Luo Yu, but the Star Luo Empire...

Forget it, bad luck!

"Xuan Lao, is Su Yu not participating in this rescue operation?" Wang Qiu Er stood up and looked at Xuan Lao, asking.

Xuan Lao nodded, "The Academy and the Star Luo Empire originally invited him, but Su Yu refused. Why, do you want to know something?"

"Nothing." Wang Qiu Er stepped back. She looked at the people around her; she knew clearly what the ending for these people would be.

Even knowing that this was an extremely dangerous operation, they would still throw themselves into it without hesitation.

"Bei Bei, tell us about the situation of your last negotiation," Xuan Lao said, looking at him.

Bei Bei recalled the scene from that day, "Luo Yu's attitude was very tough; he seemed to hold a great deal of resentment regarding our last operation in Mingdu. This time, his target is our Shrek, so let's count it as a retaliatory action. However, I am worried that his target is not us, but the Three Great Empires."

Huo Yu Hao recalled the situation from that day and couldn't help but clench his fists, "The situation of the Three Great Empires is even more dangerous, but the Sun Moon Empire's conditions are even more excessive; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an insatiable demand. He clearly stated that if he discovers we have any private rescue operations, he will immediately launch a war and kill all the personnel from the Three Great Empires!"

"Crazy! Too crazy! This guy..." Xuan Lao could only sigh at this; the hostages from the Three Great Empires had become their greatest weakness.

Huo Yu Hao hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Xuan Lao, I suggest we still agree to sign the exchange and study agreement with the Sun Moon Empire. Stabilizing them right now is the best choice. Because they really will kill people..."

Xuan Lao: "............"

Bei Bei: "After the negotiation failure in the Star Luo Empire last time, the Sun Moon Empire's army immediately gathered at the border and advanced fifty miles without any warning. As long as the Sun Moon Empire wants to fight, they can immediately go to war with the Star Luo Empire. It is precisely because of this that the Star Luo Empire has already begun to gradually compromise. Moreover, on the side of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Princess Wei Na's identity was also discovered by Luo Yu. Now the Heavenly Soul Empire has also begun to compromise. Xuan Lao, we have no way out..."

"Let's discuss this matter later. Everyone disperse; I will notify you if there is any new information."

"Have you heard? A sect called the Wanjing Sect has been established. It is said that the Sect Master is a Super Douluo powerhouse!"

"How did a new sect suddenly pop up again, the Wanjing Sect?"

"Investigate for me, what exactly is the identity of these people?"

The news of the Wanjing Sect's establishment exploded. Originally, the emergence of a powerful sect was not something earth-shattering; after all, there are always some hidden families that emerge after producing a powerhouse. Nowadays, there are quite a few such families in the Douluo Continent, although most of these families do not have Title Douluo powerhouses.

"It has been investigated. This is a hidden family called the Yuan'en Family. In their early years, they lived in seclusion in the forest near the Clear Sky Sect. Someone once saw them appearing there."

Regarding the news of the Yuan'en Family, the Three Great Empires found out very little. As a family that has only appeared for a hundred years, compared to those great families and sects in the Douluo Continent that have been passed down for thousands or ten thousand years, they really don't count for much.

It is only necessary to confirm whether they are people from the Three Great Empires and whether they are evil Soul Masters.

However, what they found strange was that a sect established with a hidden family as its main body actually had a department specifically set up for Soul Guidance Devices!

Is this really a hidden family?

Which hidden family is so in tune with the times?

However, the outrageous things did not stop there. The conditions for recruiting disciples offered by the Wanjing Sect were also extremely tempting; it seemed as if this sect was an extremely wealthy existence. Large amounts of Gold Soul Coins were continuously thrown down, causing the Wanjing Sect to take shape rapidly in the Star Luo Empire.

All parties were guessing who was actually in control behind the Wanjing Sect's main family, the Yuan'en Family, but there was no further talk about this matter after the Three Great Empires met with Yuan'en Sitai.

Regarding this news, Su Yu was also extremely clear about the inside story; the Yuan'en Family had already told him this news.

The reason the Three Great Empires gave up the investigation was because Yuan'en Sitai displayed the strength of a Super Douluo.

Moreover, if the situation reached an unmanageable point, the Second Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, Yuan'en Ming, would naturally come to clean up the mess.

Su Yu never worried about being exposed. The Wanjing Sect surfacing could bring him huge benefits. Xuan Ziwen's Soul Guidance Device production and the research and development of new Soul Guidance Devices all required a large amount of manpower. Other sects, including the Three Great Empires, might not have as rich data as the Wanjing Sect possesses.

Furthermore, the current history of Soul Guidance Device development in the Three Great Empires is not even as good as Shrek's...

Let alone being able to compare with Xuan Ziwen and the Wanjing Sect, which holds various design blueprints.

The composition of the Wanjing Sect is actually very simple.

Because Su Yu referenced the system of the Spirit Hall from back then.

Gongfeng Hall, Sect Master Hall, Dou Luo Dian, Elder Hall.

However, the Wanjing Sect has no Wanjing City, nor does it have any Wanjing branches...

Perhaps only the system of the Spirit Hall is the most suitable for the development of sects in the Three Great Empires.
