Chapter 379: Feng Ling's Scheme
Elder Song and the others were Sea God's Pavilion Elders, figures of immense prestige on the Douluo Continent. If they visited any emperor of the Three Empires, they would be treated with the utmost respect.
Yet the so called Vice Sect Master before them was arrogant and overbearing, completely disregarding Shrek Academy. She was no different from the arrogant powerhouses of the Spirit Hall recorded in Shrek's history books.
Elder Song narrowed her eyes.
If she backed down now, not only would Shrek Academy's reputation suffer, but she would also let Zhang Peng escape and fail to bring Tang Ya back.
However, protecting Bei Bei and the others was also crucial.
After a moment of thought, she sent a voice transmission to Cai Mei'er:
"Mei'er, take Bei Bei, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao and leave immediately. Go find the Medicine Immortal Douluo Bei Bei must be treated no matter what. As for this so called Vice Sect Master, let me test her strength myself."
Cai Mei'er immediately responded: "Understood, Elder Song."
Without hesitation, she led Bei Bei, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao toward Mingyue Hotel. The Star Luo Battle Team was also staying there. Since the Medicine Immortal Douluo had been invited by Shrek Academy, she was currently residing with the Star Luo Team.
Although Star Luo failed to reach the Top Four, their team remained in the Sun Moon Empire to watch the tournament and purchase Soul Tools.
"Did I say you could leave?"
Feng Ling's expression darkened. She extended her hand, and an overbearing black flame ignited in the air, roaring with intensity. The aura of a Rank 97 Super Douluo erupted, and a sharp phoenix cry echoed through the sky.
At the same time, her Soul Rings appeared
Three purple, five black, one red!
Elder Song's face changed drastically.
Not a single hundred year Soul Ring?
This meant that Feng Ling's strength far surpassed ordinary Soul Masters.
And now, she had unleashed the aura of a Rank 97 Super Douluo, proving that her cultivation was on par with Elder Song's.
A terrifying pressure bore down.
Elder Song could feel it.
Her chances of winning weren't high.
Evil Soul Masters were already stronger than normal Soul Masters, and now, Feng Ling's Soul Ring configuration was even better than hers.
Feng Ling suddenly dashed toward Cai Mei'er, her third Soul Ring glowing brightly.
A pair of dark purple phoenix wings unfurled behind her, exuding an ominous, chilling aura that spread across the air.
Anyone whose strength was far below hers instantly felt a bone chilling fear wash over them.
Even the sky above Mingyue Hotel seemed to darken under Feng Ling's influence.
Elder Song reacted instantly.
She transformed into a six meter wide cyan eagle, radiating brilliant cyan light as she intercepted Feng Ling.
Black flames and countless feather shaped cyan lights collided, engaging in an intense struggle for dominance.
Phoenix cries and eagle screeches filled the air.
Elder Song was filled with uncertainty.
She muttered, "Is this… the Evil Phoenix Martial Soul? Could you be Feng Ling? I heard you became the Evil Phoenix Douluo, and then you vanished… I never expected you to become the Vice Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Church!"
Even though she had activated her Martial Soul True Body, she could still speak.
Her words immediately reached everyone present.
Xian Lin'er remained focused on Zhang Peng, ensuring he didn't ambush her mother. But upon hearing Elder Song's words, she subconsciously turned to look at Feng Ling.
Her expression grew even darker.
After all, she had a complicated history with Yan Shaozhe.
Meanwhile, Cai Mei'er, who had already entered Mingyue Hotel, suddenly stopped.
She let Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao take Bei Bei to find the Medicine Immortal Douluo, while she turned back toward Feng Ling.
Her face darkened.
She was Yan Shaozhe's official wife.
And who was Feng Ling?
Feng Ling had been with Yan Shaozhe even before Xian Lin'er or Cai Mei'er.
Moreover, both she and Yan Shaozhe possessed Phoenix Martial Souls.
If her Evil Phoenix Martial Soul hadn't fallen into darkness and she hadn't tried to kill Yan Shaozhe, the position of Yan Shaozhe's wife might never have fallen to Cai Mei'er.
Feng Ling smiled.
"That's right. It's me."
Her voice was filled with amusement.
"Back then, Yan Shaozhe discovered I was an Evil Soul Master but couldn't bring himself to kill me. He let me go. Thanks to him, I was able to become a Rank 97 Super Douluo!
In a few days, I'll be sure to visit Shaozhe and personally thank him for his generosity."
She amplified her voice with Soul Power, making sure that even those inside Mingyue Hotel could hear her.
And who was staying inside Mingyue Hotel?
Powerhouses from various academies and sects across the Douluo Continent.
"Silence! Stop spreading lies!"
Elder Song's face darkened.
It was true Yan Shaozhe had spared Feng Ling, which allowed her to survive.
But how could she publicly reveal such a disgraceful truth?
This was a trap!
Feng Ling was trying to drag Yan Shaozhe's name through the mud.
Shrek Academy's reputation was already in shambles due to Elder Xuan's scandal in the Sun Moon Empire.
If their reputation fell any further, it would be irreparable.
And Mu En had already decided to return.
As long as Mu En returned, Shrek Academy would recover.
They couldn't let things get worse now!
Feng Ling smirked.
"Lies? Then why don't you call Yan Shaozhe here? Let him face me directly and prove I'm lying. How about that?"
Although she was now Zhongli Wu's wife, he didn't care about her past relationships.
If she could use her past with Yan Shaozhe to damage Shrek Academy's reputation, Zhongli Wu would even encourage her.
After all, Shrek Academy was the greatest enemy of the Holy Spirit Church.
Elder Song, Xian Lin'er, and Cai Mei'er fell silent for a moment.
Then, Elder Song swiftly went on the offensive:
"You are an Evil Soul Master despised by all. Yan Shaozhe is the highly respected Dean of Shrek Academy's Martial Soul Department.
Your words are venomous lies meant to trap him in a 'prove your innocence' dilemma.
Just like our ancestor Tang San righteous and pure Yan Shaozhe is a man of integrity.
Why should he have to prove himself innocent?
Should a good man be forced to defend himself against your baseless accusations?
That's absurd!"
Feng Ling sneered.
"I know Yan Shaozhe better than anyone. Even when we were together, he was always flirting with other women.
And you call him 'pure and righteous'? Ha! He even "
Suddenly, she stopped.
A low, husky female voice echoed in her mind:
"That's enough, Xiao Feng. Stop talking about Yan Shaozhe. Leave now."
