Chapter 677 An Ancient Book
Shrek Academy, Seagod Island
Having reverted to his former appearance as an old man, Elder Mu stood quietly on the highest level inside the Golden Tree, the place closest to its core.
The Sea God Pavilion has always been built inside a naturally formed hollow in the Golden Tree, and with the addition of some special cultivation methods, it has become the Sea God Pavilion it is today.
During his recent trip to Xingdou, aside from the unusual activity of the soul beasts in Xingdou, Elder Mu could not find any other reason for the Golden Tree's mournful cry.
Ye Nanxiao's words surprised him somewhat.
The will of Shrek's predecessors descended upon him, even conversing with Huo Yuhao and guiding him.
At first, Elder Mu thought this was a good thing, that a senior had personally descended and selected one of the most promising students in the academy.
Isn't this a powerful alliance?
Isn't this like adding wings to a tiger?
Before Elder Mu could even get excited, Ye Nanxiao's next words instantly extinguished his enthusiasm.
He had a huge disagreement with Huo Yuhao, and it seems they even took action against each other.
Who is right and who is wrong?
Mr. Mu felt that Ye Nanxiao's words had a hidden meaning and contained a lot of information, but since the latter was unwilling to talk about it, he didn't want to ask too many questions.
Later, the golden tree returned to normal, but some branches withered and fell off due to insufficient energy.
Later, when Huo Yuhao returned and locked himself in the library, frantically searching for information about the Nautilus, Elder Mu realized with alarm that the Star Dou incident was not over yet.
However, that senior has already vanished, and the clues we found have gone cold.
The whole incident exuded a serious sense of incongruity, making President Mu feel that something was amiss.
It seems as if someone is secretly manipulating the course of events.
However, Elder Mu was unwilling to believe that he was the Limit Douluo, the most powerful being in the world, and that no one could possibly scheme against him.
Moreover, there are only a handful of Limit Douluo on the mainland. I know three of them myself. Could there be other Limit Douluo hidden in the world?
However, he came from an era of war and witnessed the development and changes of the continent, as well as the rise of soul tool technology.
He had stopped so many wars on the continent. The flames of war had swept across every corner of the continent. If there really was a reclusive old monster, he was already this old. Even if he was a reclusive old monster back then, he should have passed away by now.
Old Mu stared silently at the ceiling, which emitted a soft glow, lost in thought.
Then suddenly a dragon's roar, which sounded like a call, rang in my ears.
Old Mu turned his head to look in a certain direction outside the window, and his figure disappeared instantly.
Shrek City, Tang Clan.
"Bebe!"
Xu Sanshi kicked open the door to Bei Bei's office and rushed in.
Beibei seemed oblivious to the mournful sound of the door slamming against the wall, staring blankly at a secret letter in her hand.
"Beibei? Someone named Bei?"
Xu Sanshi sneaked up in front of Beibei and shoved his big face right in front of her.
Suddenly, a giant turtle face appeared before her. Beibei snapped out of her daze, her eyes instantly sharpening, and her right hand swiftly transformed into a dragon.
Streaks of lightning struck Bei Bei's office, causing the patrolling Tang Clan disciples to silently walk away.
Xu Sanshi, puffing out smoke rings and sporting an afro, glared resentfully at Bei Bei. "You heartless bastard! You almost electrocuted me!"
Beibei put away the secret letter in her hand and asked irritably, "What are you doing here? It's working hours, why aren't you leading the team in training?"
"You! You're fined two thousand gold coins for slacking off at work!"
"Why don't you just rob it?"
Xu Sanshi ran his hands over his afro and said, "I came over to ask if there are any new soul tools that need experimenting with. I'm bored!"
"No!" Beibei rolled her eyes at him. "We've explored all of Nanxiao's lab. Only Yuhao and Caitou have permission to access the deeper floors, but Caitou won't be leading you astray!"
Xu Sanshi chuckled, "Then we can go find Yuhao!"
Upon hearing this, Beibei sighed and looked at Xu Sanshi with sympathy.
"What's wrong?" Xu Sanshi felt uncomfortable under Bei Bei's gaze.
"After Yuhao came back, Dong'er took him away. The young couple is together now. Why are you meddling in their business? Xu Sanshi, who has only ever held hands with anyone, is someone else?" Beibei sighed, her eyes filled with pity.
Xu Sanshi's face flushed red. "I was progressing step by step! What do you know! You rebellious disciple!"
Beibei looked Xu Sanshi up and down, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Stop talking. I have some of Nanxiao's secret recipes. Just call me 'brother,' and I'll give you a copy. Don't always use holding hands as an excuse!"
"Get out! Get out! Get out!"
"Oh, right! Make me a copy of the secret recipe before you leave!"
Seeing Bei Bei's "I knew it" look on her face, Xu Sanshi turned his head slightly and, with his left hand, unwittingly took a small notebook and put it in his pocket.
"By the way, Sanshi, you've been with the Tang Clan for quite some time now, the longest you've been with me, and you have the cleanest background..."
"Stop, stop! Just say what you want me to do!" Xu Sanshi interrupted Bei Bei with a look of disgust. They had been best friends for so many years, and he could tell whether Bei Bei had brushed his teeth or not as soon as he opened his mouth.
"It's nothing serious. I'm going on a long trip with Xiaoya in a few days, and it might take a while. I'll leave the Tang Clan to you guys." Beibei said with a serious expression.
"A long trip? Where are you going? Aren't you taking me with you?"
Xu Sanshi's three consecutive questions left Beibei bewildered.
"Why would I bring you along? To be a third wheel?"
"Tch! Where are you going? When will you be back?"
"The future of the Sun and Moon Empire is uncertain."
"ha?"
Shrek Academy, Library.
Wang Dong'er, her steps unsteady, carried a huge stack of books taller than herself to Huo Yuhao's side and put them down. "Phew! Yuhao, this is all information about the region across the sea!"
Huo Yuhao put down a map in his hand, reached out and ruffled Wang Dong'er's little head as she leaned in, forcing a smile on his pale face. "Thank you, Dong'er!"
Seeing Huo Yuhao's forced smile and pale face, Wang Dong'er reached out and put the blueprints covered in marks in his hand aside, then got up and sat on his lap.
"Yuhao! Cheer up!"
The latest novel is first published here!
Wang Dong'er pressed Huo Yuhao's face with both hands, forcing him to look into her eyes.
"Dong'er, I'm just... a little sad." Huo Yuhao reached out and gently stroked Wang Dong'er's warm little hand, then held it gently.
Wang Dong'er snuggled into Huo Yuhao's arms, hugging his waist tightly. Through his clothes, she could feel the low temperature of his body, and she couldn't help but hug him even tighter, wanting to pass on her warmth.
"Yuhao, I don't know the details of this matter, but Ye Fox said that if you're wrong, you should admit it. You've been brothers for so many years, and no matter who's right or wrong, your friendship won't be affected by one or two things!" Wang Dong'er said with certainty.
"But I..." Huo Yuhao wanted to say that the mistake he had made this time was quite big.
"It's okay! He didn't blame me when I almost blew up Ye Huli's lab!" Wang Dong'er clenched her little fist and waved it, her eyes filled with encouragement.
Seeing Wang Dong'er's adorable appearance, Huo Yuhao's inner turmoil finally dissipated somewhat. He silently hugged the girl in his arms and spoke out what had been weighing on his mind.
"What?! Ye Fox has a swan girlfriend?!"
Huo Yuhao quickly turned his head to look around, and when he made sure no one was around, he made a shushing gesture.
"Hmm? This is Ye Fox's secret?" Wang Dong'er muttered softly, then her eyes lit up. "Then I've got something on Ye Fox!"
"No, Muddy usually lies flat and will confess to Sister Nan and Sister Xiaotao before you threaten her, and then she'll go into revenge mode!" Huo Yuhao reached out and pinched Wang Dong'er's little nose.
"Tsk." Wang Dong'er wrinkled her nose.
After Wang Dong'er's outburst, Huo Yuhao finally decided to face Ye Nanxiao. No matter what, he would face him first and then think about what to do next.
"Hmm... If you don't want to face Ye Fox, why don't you come back with me? Let's go to the top of the mountain and see the scenery again. By the way," Wang Dong'er said, her face slightly flushed.
Go to Haotian Fortress...
This seems like a good option?
Huo Yuhao recalled the magnificent fortress floating in the air, and for some reason, a sense of longing arose in his heart.
It seemed that a sense of peace was calling to him from there.
Once the thought arises, it becomes unstoppable.
Huo Yuhao ruffled Wang Dong'er's hair and nodded gently. "Then let's go back with Dong'er to meet her parents! The ugly son-in-law is going to meet his father-in-law!"
"You! Why did you blurt out the truth!" Wang Dong'er's face was still relatively thin, and white smoke floated from her head, transforming her into a steam girl.
"After being under Muddy's guidance for so many years, I've absorbed a lot of knowledge from what I've heard." Huo Yuhao reached out and picked up the book beside him, intending to continue working. He wanted to find the legendary place and the divine object that could answer all the questions in the world.
Even if fate truly exists, he will find a way to conquer it!
His life, his own destiny, should be in his own hands!
Wang Dong'er was very excited; she had finally found an opportunity to tell the truth!
Huo Yuhao suddenly noticed an ancient book that Wang Dong'er had accidentally knocked over. The pages of the book seemed to flip automatically under the influence of gravity and then stopped on a certain page.
Huo Yuhao was about to bend down to pick up the ancient book when his gaze immediately fell on the page on the left.
"Ancestor Tang San led the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire in a decisive battle against the Spirit Hall. Ultimately, by relying on the power of the sea, they defeated the evil gods and protected the empire. The empire will forever remember Ancestor Tang San and the brave warriors from the sea!"
Huo Yuhao slowly read the contents of the book, a question popping into his mind: Didn't the history class say that Tang San's ancestor and the Imperial Army defeated the Spirit Hall, which was threatening the continent at the time? Who is this warrior from the sea?
Out of doubt and curiosity, Huo Yuhao picked up the ancient book. He first glanced at the cover, which had several large characters written on it: "Hymn to the Sea God" and a shiny trident symbol.
"Is this a record of Tang San's ancestor? A warrior of the sea? A mermaid clan that guards the sea god?"
As Huo Yuhao whispered, the trident symbol on the cover of the ancient book gleamed faintly.
