Chapter 317: Second Talk (3)
Yun Ming didn't know why Leng Yaozhu said they wouldn't regret it, but he decided to trust her once. He said, "Since Yaozhu said so, we'll join you. But you have to guarantee that you won't attack Shrek Academy."
"If there's a fight in the future, we won't help, and I hope you can spare Shrek Academy."
Le Zhengen frowned and said, "Yun Ming, aren't you asking too much? The only ones who have tried to harm Anping and Gu Yuena are Shrek Academy and Tang Sect. After agreeing to your terms, what can you two do for us if you join us?"
He thought that the current situation was clear: Tang Sect and Shrek Academy were their enemies, and many people from Tang Sect came from Shrek Academy. Yun Ming wanted answers but didn't want to pay.
Yun Ming knew his request was excessive, but he couldn't bring himself to fight against Shrek Academy. He also wanted an answer after hearing Leng Yaozhu.
It was related to why he couldn't become a god. That was Yun Ming's obsession. He had worked hard to achieve godhood. But after a battle with Chen Xinjie, he found out that Douluo Star suppressed them and prevented them from becoming gods.
And AnPing also told them that it was Lord of Planet who was preventing them but he don't know full reason.
He wouldn't mind if it was just the limit of heaven and earth, but now they learned that there was a reason for Douluo Star's suppression. How could Yun Ming not be curious?
As Yun Ming struggled to make a choice, Yali looked at Anping, who was sipping tea calmly. She knew Anping was determined to get Yun Ming.
Yali didn't want to join Anping and the others without an explanation. She sighed and said, "Can you give us a hint so we can decide?"
Anping knew what Yali was thinking. She wanted to know if it was true what Leng Yaozhu said. Anping didn't refuse and nodded. "Sure. The suppression of Douluo Star's Soul Masters in Limit Douluo has something to do with the Abyss."
"Abyss!" Yun Ming and Yali exclaimed. They weren't curious about how Anping knew about the abyss. They wondered how it was related to the abyss.
The hint aroused their curiosity. Others might not know the abyss, but they knew it well. They couldn't figure out why Douluo Star's suppression of Soul Master cultivation had anything to do with the abyss.
They thought that Douluo Star should not suppress them, even if it didn't improve their cultivation, when facing a plane like the Abyss that grew by devouring. It didn't make sense.
She thought hard but couldn't find the key. Yali frowned and said, "Are you sure it's related to the abyss? If you're willing to fight the abyss in the future, I'll join you."
Yali cared more about the lives of most people than Yun Ming, who cared more about Shrek Academy. She was ready to agree after hearing Anping say it was related to the abyss.
Anping nodded without hesitation and said, "I'm sure it's related to the Abyss. Of course, there are other factors involved. As for fighting the Abyss, we'll join in."
Anping had considered the issue of the Abyss long ago. He would find a way to deal with it, even if Yali didn't ask.
Yali looked at Yun Ming and said, "Brother Yun, since this matter is related to the abyss, I think we should agree to join them. This concerns the life and death of countless people."
Yun Ming sighed and said, "I know you are kind, but this involves Shrek Academy. Even without them, can't we humans resist the abyss?"
Yun Ming obviously cared more about Shrek Academy. There was no need for Le Zhengen to mock him. Yali said earnestly, "Brother Yun, Shrek Academy is important, but if the abyss breaks through the defense line, all life will be destroyed. What's the use of Shrek Academy then?"
Yali said this not only because of her kind personality, but also because of the battle reports from the front line in recent years. The number of soul masters who died fighting the abyss was increasing.
Yun Ming knew what Yali was worried about, but his master entrusted Shrek Academy to him. He didn't want to disappoint his master, so he had to resign as the head of the Poseidon Pavilion. He really didn't want to do anything that would make him an enemy of Shrek Academy.
But Yali's words pierced his heart like a sword. If the abyss broke through the defense line, the best outcome would be that Shrek Academy survived in the world, and the more likely scenario would be that Shrek Academy couldn't stop the abyss's attack.
He took a deep breath and said, "If you can promise to deal with the abyss, we'll join you."
After saying this, Yun Ming leaned back on the chair. This short sentence seemed to drain all his strength. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Anping take out something he recognized.
Anping handed them a contract and smiled. "You two must be familiar with this already, so you don't need me to explain it, right? Sign this, and you'll get the truth."
They had made up their minds, so Yun Ming and Yali signed the contract without much hesitation, without even reading the contents.
Seeing their lack of hesitation, Anping asked curiously, "Don't you two want to take a closer look at the contract?"
Hearing Anping's question, Yali snapped, "What's the point of reading it? Who knows if the contract is as written?"
Anping said innocently, "Holy Spirit Douluo, you've misunderstood me. I had no choice but to do that last time. Is there anything wrong with doing this for my own safety? Don't tell me Atlas Douluo never thought of killing us."
"Now that we're not enemies anymore, I won't scheme against you like I did before, so the contract is the real deal."
As Anping said, the contract was genuine. Yun Ming and Yali signed it without looking at it, which surprised Anping.
Yali shook her head slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. We've signed it anyway, and there's no turning back, right?"
Seeing Yali look away, Anping nodded and said, "That's right, but we won't make any unreasonable demands, and we won't ask you to kill anyone from Shrek Academy."
Yali said angrily, "Does it make a difference? Brother Yun and I have joined you. Even if we don't take action, I'm afraid they won't let us go. You've achieved your goal. Tell us your answer."
