Chapter 295: Evacuation (Part 3)

"Because they no longer care whether Shrek Academy retaliates," Wang Dong'er's voice carried a trace of imperceptible trembling, but it was mostly resolute, "The Three Great Empires and the Sun Moon Empire are now on the verge of all-out war. The fact that the Sun Moon Empire hasn't fully dispatched Soul Masters to pursue us is already the greatest stroke of luck in a misfortune."

"Fight for it!" A flash of madness crossed Huo Yu Hao's eyes, "Since it's come to this, there's only one way. Ice Empress's Pincer!"

"Master, hurry and dodge!"

"It's too late!" Xu Sanshi looked at the sky-covering Soul Guidance Rays behind them and shouted hoarsely.

In an instant, a massive number of Soul Guidance Rays submerged Bei Bei, and the sound of violent explosions echoed in everyone's ears.

"Boom—!"

The churning smoke and dust made it impossible to see Bei Bei's figure. Even within Huo Yu Hao's Spirit Detection Sharing, the group could not perceive Bei Bei's presence, and for a moment, everyone's hearts grew tense.

"Don't worry about me, continue breaking through!" Bei Bei's voice came from the smoke and dust, and only then did everyone perceive Bei Bei's existence once more.

Under the support of Huo Yu Hao's Spirit Detection Sharing, Bei Bei narrowly avoided the sky-covering Soul Guidance Rays. He dared not imagine what his fate would have been if he had been hit head-on by these Soul Guidance Rays without Huo Yu Hao's Spirit Detection Sharing.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Violent roaring sounds echoed continuously in the air, as one Soul Guidance Ray after another was deflected and shattered.

In the sky, the group's bodies struggled to dodge attacks from all directions under the propulsion of their Soul Guidance Devices, but their momentum never faltered in the slightest.

The pursuing Sun Moon Empire Soul Engineers might not have known some of them, but they definitely knew the Shrek group; after all, that was the champion team from the previous tournament!

If it had been any other squad, they likely would have collapsed instantly under their pursuit, but this group from Shrek, a team of over twenty people, was actually able to maintain their morale and continue breaking through while working together. If this were to spread, how astonishing would it be!

…………

Lu Jiuyu looked at the Shrek group still struggling desperately and sighed, "If only they were all people of our Sun Moon Empire. The backbone of our Sun Moon Empire is still inferior to the Three Great Empires..."

"Indeed. If it weren't for the Captain, I think we wouldn't have been able to get past Wang Qiu Er, nor the Tang Sect Battle Team. Huo Yu Hao with Twin Martial Souls, and Wang Qiu Er with the Golden Dragon Martial Soul—but there's no help for it, we cannot kill this group..."

Leiqier looked at the group continuously fleeing and couldn't help but feel some emotion. If these people could be left here forever, it would be the best choice. If they didn't die, given time, they would inevitably become figures like Title Douluo or even Super Douluo.

"Could it be..." Fang Wei looked at the fleeing group, lost in thought.

"No need to guess, the answer is already obvious. If we really killed them, the old monsters of Shrek would have to mobilize in full force. Let's leave the pursuit as it is. Calculating the time, those guys should be arriving at the extraction point soon. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to get away."

Leiqier looked at the fleeing Shrek group with some regret. If there were a chance, he truly hoped to be able to leave this group on the soil of the Sun Moon Empire forever!

However, the facts did not allow him to do so, because the price that would have to be paid was simply something the current Sun Moon Empire could not bear!

"Tell me, will the Captain become someone who surpasses that late Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, Mu Lao?" Sheng Hongyun looked at Lu Jiuyu and asked.

However, the answer he expected did not appear; it vanished into the wind, leaving only the roaring sounds coming from the distant battlefield...

…………

"Wait, Master, the Sun Moon Empire's pursuing troops are retreating one after another."

Huo Yu Hao's voice echoed in the ears of the group. Everyone looked back and discovered that the Sun Moon Empire's pursuers were already withdrawing in an orderly fashion. In just a few minutes, the pursuers behind them had been reduced by more than half.

"Why are they retreating? Aren't we still within the borders of the Sun Moon Empire?" Wang Dong'er was somewhat puzzled; such a great opportunity was being abandoned for nothing.

This question was not only on Wang Dong'er's mind, but also on Bei Bei's and the others'. Letting them leave just like that did not seem like Luo Yu's style.

Unless...

Reinforcements from the Three Great Empires had arrived!

"You guessed correctly. Xuan Lao sent us to rescue you. Although the Sun Moon Empire intercepted you all the way, they gave up the obstruction after we forcibly broke through." The leader was a teacher from the Inner Court, and behind him were several Title Douluo from the Three Great Empires.

Seeing that mighty group—three Title Douluo, seven Soul Douluo, and ten Soul Saint, some of whom were even from the Body Sect—it was no wonder the Sun Moon Empire's pursuers stopped chasing...

"The Academy said the mission is cancelled. The Three Great Empires will negotiate with the Sun Moon Empire with all their might, and you don't need to continue risking yourselves for follow-up matters. However..."

After the teacher from the Shrek Inner Court explained some things, he brought the group to the side.

He asked, "Did you see Su Yu while in the Sun Moon Empire?"

"Su Yu?" Huo Yu Hao was somewhat confused, not knowing why the Academy would ask about this, but he still answered truthfully, "Su Yu's whereabouts should be in the Sun Moon Empire, but we don't know exactly where."

Huo Yu Hao did not lie about this point, but he really didn't know Su Yu's specific location right now. Perhaps...

She knew...

"Does the Academy have a mission issued for Su Yu?" Xu Sanshi's heart skipped a beat, thinking of the secret letter from his family earlier.

The Title Douluo from Shrek Academy spoke slowly, "Pursue and capture Su Yu; kill on sight if necessary."

Pursue and capture Su Yu!

Kill on sight!

…………

When the words fell, everyone looked at each other, and for a time, the atmosphere grew heavy.

Everyone looked at one another, and no one spoke.

"Teacher Ye, is Senior Su Yu really a traitor?" one of the students in the team asked. At this moment, they still held a trace of lingering hope.

The Shrek Seven Devils remained silent. They knew that the Academy's decisions were never groundless, and even questioning them would only add to the trouble, not to mention that Xu Sanshi had already revealed some inside information earlier.

That leading Title Douluo was a teacher from the Inner Court, with the title Maple Leaf.

Maple Leaf Douluo looked at that student and continued, "You will know the specific details when you return to the Academy. Let's go..."

…………

The Star Dou Great Forest.

Wang Qiu Er looked at the scene before her, bored. Two giant bears were punching each other, one blow after another. "Sigh..."

Ever since the failed breakout last time, she had fallen into a coma. Wang Qiu Er only remembered that in the end, to avoid falling into the hands of the Sun Moon Empire, she resolutely decided to self-destruct. But at the final moment, her self-destruction was forcibly terminated by someone before it could fully activate, and she subsequently fell into a coma. When she woke up again, she had already appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest.

According to Aunt Bi Ji's account, she had been in a coma for at least half a month, but when Wang Qiu Er asked who had sent her back, everyone remained tight-lipped.

Observing the tone of the crowd—no, the Soul Beasts—she didn't need to think to know who it was.

Su Yu...

Except for you, I cannot think of a second person who could have done that in such a situation. If Uncle Di Tian had acted, the commotion would have definitely been known to everyone, but she had appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest so silently.

During this time, Wang Qiu Er also had the Beast force Soul Masters who came to hunt for Soul Rings to tell them about the situation of the Three Great Empires on the Douluo Continent. Apart from some well-known facts, there was only the Sun Moon Empire's high-profile announcement that the Golden Dragon Maiden had been killed by the Sun Moon Empire.

After interrogating dozens of people, they all said roughly the same thing. Apart from one unlucky student from the Shrek Inner Court who knew a bit more, there was nothing else.

It was also unclear how this unlucky Inner Court student would explain to the Academy how they encountered a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast and returned so unscathed after being beaten up...

"Why are you sighing? Didn't we survive?"

A familiar voice appeared in Wang Qiu Er's ears, and when this voice emerged, Wang Qiu Er was slightly stunned.

Even Xiao Bai, who had been messing around with Xiong Jun, stopped their movements, and their gazes turned in unison toward the source of the voice.

A young man dressed in the noble attire of the Star Luo Empire slowly walked out from the shadows of the trees; a faint, elusive smile hung on the youth's face, and it was hard to imagine that this youth with a calm temperament before them was actually the culprit who had turned the outside world upside down.

Wang Qiu Er looked at Su Yu suspiciously and asked, "Su Yu, did you notice our plan back when we first appeared in the Sun Moon Empire?"

"I'll talk to you about your matters in a moment; I will answer everything you want to know, but right now, I need to go see Di Tian," Su Yu said indifferently as he looked at the unscathed Wang Qiu Er.

Wang Qiu Er asked, "Why are you going to see Di Tian?"

Su Yu answered calmly, "There is a matter, a very important matter."

Wang Qiu Er looked into Su Yu's deep eyes and said, "Fine, but before I take you to see Di Tian, you must answer my questions."

"Ask away." Su Yu was out of options; it wasn't that he hadn't asked the other Beasts, but he hadn't even been able to find Di Tian when he went to Life Lake, so now he could only come to find Wang Qiu Er.

"How much do you know about the Sun Moon Empire plan?" Wang Qiu Er asked her first question while watching Su Yu's indifferent expression.

Su Yu avoided her gaze and replied, "I don't know the specifics of your plan, but I know the general idea."

The Shrek rescue operation could be described as earth-shattering and heaven-defying in the original work; with things like the Haodong Three Ultimates and the Auspicious Beast's sacrifice, how could Su Yu not be deeply impressed?
