章 411: Chapter 411: I'm Dumbfounded
...
Looking at the figure suddenly appearing in front of them, the group from Shrek couldn't help but be surprised.
"Zeng Yi? How did you get here? Weren't you cultivating in the sect?" Seeing Zeng Yi, Ning Rongrong excitedly ran up to him, giving him a slap on the back and smiling happily. The tension that had surrounded them being surrounded by the Spirit Hall dissipated.
"Hey, why did you hit me so hard, you damn girl?"
Feeling the intense pain on his back, Zeng Yi turned around and delivered a chop to Ning Rongrong's head.
"Ouch, it hurts~"
Ning Rongrong also felt the pain and covered her head with both hands.
"You, what's with you? I was welcoming you, you know! Who told you to suddenly disappear? I thought you were missing and worried for a while!"
"Hehe, your way of welcoming is quite special, I can't handle it."
"By the way, we won the championship in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament! How about that? Impressive, right?" Ning Rongrong proudly bragged about the matter to Zeng Yi.
Looking at her smug expression, Zeng Yi couldn't help but smirk, "Heh, what's the big deal? If I hadn't had something to attend to, you wouldn't have won anything!"
"Hmph~ I think you're just jealous!"
Seeing the two of them suddenly bickering, it dumbfounded the rest of the Shrek group.
Dai Mubai glanced at Zhu Zhuqing beside him, who was staring at Zeng Yi absent-mindedly, with a silly look on her face. He couldn't help but shake his head helplessly when he shifted his gaze to Zeng Yi and Ning Rongrong quarreling.
"I'm telling you two, why are you fighting the moment you meet? Can't you consider the situation?" Dai Mubai helplessly smiled.
Considering the situation was of no concern to Ning Rongrong. After all, her father and Grandpa were watching from above. Was the Spirit Hall even capable of hurting her?
Seeing that Zeng Yi had voluntarily revealed himself, Bibi Dong was somewhat surprised, but it didn't affect the overall situation.
"Zeng Yi? You also want to protect this spirit beast? Don't you know your current identity?" Bibi Dong looked down at Zeng Yi below with a very serious tone.
Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin beside her were also very surprised. They had been in the Spirit City for nearly a month and hadn't seen Zeng Yi appear. They didn't expect him to show up voluntarily to help their fellow students at Shrek. It seemed that he was still the same loyal and righteous person.
Well, although they also wanted to help Shrek Academy, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's current situation was awkward. They had already formed an alliance with the Spirit Hall. They couldn't afford to offend the Spirit Hall just for a spirit beast.
Looking up at Bibi Dong, Zeng Yi pleaded, "Supreme Pontiff, they are all my friends. Can you let them go for my sake?"
Zeng Yi's words surprised the Shrek group. Did he have a relationship with the Supreme Pontiff? How could he dare to say such words?
Even Ning Rongrong, as the Little Princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, didn't have the status to have a conversation with the Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall like this.
Although Zeng Yi wanted to seize the opportunity to escape during this chaos, he didn't want this event to happen either.
In the original work, the Spirit Hall was the ultimate antagonist. However, after some time of contact, Zeng Yi had a very positive impression of the Spirit Hall. It wasn't as bad as he had imagined. Moreover, some of the policies in the Spirit City were more humane compared to the two great empires.
In the original work, the reason why the Spirit Hall was destroyed was because of the irreconcilable enmity with Tang San, with the key point of that enmity being Xiao Wu.
The Spirit Hall wanted the 100,000 spirit ring of Xiao Wu, who was Tang San's lover, which led to an unresolvable conflict.
If this event hadn't happened, everyone could have sat down and talked things through.
However, Bibi Dong wasn't as prescient as Zeng Yi; she only knew that Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the rest of the Shrek team weren't threats to her. They were just a bunch of clowns.
Moreover, with a 100,000 year spirit beast appearing before her, obtaining it would allow her to advance further and faster, reaching that realm. With that, she would have enough strength to conquer the entire continent.
Looking at Bibi Dong's serious expression, she couldn't help but find it amusing.
"Zeng Yi, although I appreciate you, you don't have enough weight for me to give you face! If you're wise, retreat now, and I can forgive your actions this time."
Being rejected, Zeng Yi anticipated this outcome, but he didn't want to give up. He continued, "Wait, Your Holiness, your interest in Xiao Wu is merely for the 100,000 year spirit ring. How about this, I'll make a deal with you. Spare Xiao Wu, and when I have enough strength, I'll personally capture a 100,000 year spirit beast for you. How about that?"
This statement astonished everyone. Some who didn't know Zeng Yi couldn't help but mock him, thinking he was ignorant to consider a 100,000 year spirit beast so lightly. Wasn't that on par with the Titled Douluo among human spirit masters?
"Hahaha~"
Seeing Zeng Yi, Bibi Dong couldn't help but burst into laughter. They had never seen Her Holiness show such an expression, thinking she was provoked by this ignorant kid.
With a smirk playing on her lips, Bibi Dong looked at Zeng Yi and said, "Indeed, Zeng Yi, only you dare to speak to me like this. You are a talented spirit master, perhaps the most outstanding genius I've seen. Given time, when you reach the level of Titled Douluo, no, when you become a Spirit Douluo, I believe you'll have the strength to slay a 100,000 year spirit beast."
Bibi Dong looked at Zeng Yi with admiration, but then her expression turned cold.
"However, do you think a 100,000 year spirit beast is just something you can pick up like a cabbage from a field? Do you think you can encounter one at will? Ridiculous! Besides, humans and spirit beasts cannot coexist! Those who are not of the same kind will harbor malicious intentions. Do you not understand such a simple truth?" Bibi Dong's voice was cold.
However, Zeng Yi didn't agree. After all, there were examples of humans and spirit beasts getting along, like Tang San's parents and Tang San with Xiao Wu. But upon closer thought, perhaps only the Tang Sect could manage such a feat!
"Your Holiness, you're mistaken. We're all intelligent beings. Xiao Wu has already transformed into a human; naturally, she's different from those spirit beasts without rationality, driven only by instincts. Moreover, who says humans and spirit beasts can't be friends? I even have a spirit beast as a pet! It's affectionate towards me, it even kisses me!"
However, Zeng Yi's words made Xiao Wu's lips twitch involuntarily. This strange analogy seemed to have offended her again.
Nevertheless, Bibi Dong remained unmoved. She shifted her gaze to Xiao Wu and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're the fish that escaped the net back then!"
At this, Xiao Wu's eyes filled with resentment. She raised her head, glaring hatefully at Bibi Dong.
"Yes! It was you, this wicked woman, who killed my mother! If I don't die today, one day, I'll avenge my mother!"
Listening to these resentful words, Bibi Dong turned to Zeng Yi once again, coldly saying, "Now you understand. This is irreconcilable hatred. Therefore, I cannot overlook any threat to me, even if it's just budding. I must personally extinguish it!"
This left Zeng Yi dumbfounded. He hadn't expected this turn of events. However, with Bibi Dong's reminder, it seemed there was indeed such a thing in the original story. So, were all his fantasies in vain?
Damn it! So much wasted effort.
Was it inevitable for the Martial Spirit Hall to perish?
"Zeng Yi, I'll give you one last chance. Step aside! Don't forget your standing behind you; you represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Do you still want to oppose the Martial Spirit Hall?" Bibi Dong's patience wore thin as she issued her final warning to Zeng Yi.
