Chapter 52 Poison Undying is dumbfounded! You mean, you were kicked out of Shrek Academy?
At this moment, After hearing Elder Chen's voice, Poison Undying's figure suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the surging emerald green soul power around him stirred up gusts of wind.
He turned around, his brows furrowed, his aggressive eyes fixed on Elder Chen who had caught up with him.
"Elder Chen, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation." Poison Undying's voice was as cold as ice.
"Those old bastards from Shrek Academy have already bullied my personal disciple, and you actually expect me to swallow my anger?"
Elder Chen struggled to his feet under the overwhelming pressure of Poison Undying's power. His expression was solemn, and he did not back down. Instead, he spoke with extreme composure:
"Sect Master, I am not asking you to swallow your anger, but I believe there are three reasons why it would be inappropriate to go to Shrek Academy at this time."
Poison Undying snorted coldly: "Speak! I want to see what three points are amiss!"
Elder Chen took a deep breath and began to state his thoughts in an organized manner: "First, given your temperament, if you were to directly descend upon Shrek Academy, the final result would inevitably be chaos and turmoil, and it would not end easily."
"At that time, it could very well trigger a full-scale war between our two major powers."
"But Sect Master, you should know very well that Dragon God Moon is still alive and well in Shrek Academy."
"Although you are also one of the top experts of our time, a complete falling out with Shrek Academy, which has Mu En in charge, will not only bring no real benefits to our Body Sect, but will also damage the foundation of our sect."
Poison Immortal remained silent for a moment. Although he acted impulsively, as the sect leader, he naturally understood what the name Mu En meant in the world of Soul Masters.
Elder Chen saw that Du Bu Si did not interrupt, and continued, "Secondly, if you go to their door to make trouble, it is not entirely reasonable."
"As I said before, Ling Luochen of Shrek Academy did not know Liu Yuan's true identity before recruiting him."
"After I showed myself and clearly told Liu Yuan that he was a core disciple of our Body Sect, he was very sensible and immediately left."
"If the other party has already stopped, and you still insist on going to their door to make trouble, it will only make our Body Sect seem petty and give us a reputation for being unreasonable."
The green light in Du Bu Si's eyes flickered. Clearly, this talk about reputation and "reason" could not completely extinguish his anger, but it did calm his impulsive mind a little.
"The most important third point." Elder Chen's tone became extremely solemn.
"The most crucial aspect of this matter, from beginning to end, is what Liu Yuan himself thinks."
"Although he pledged his loyalty to me on the way back, I believe there are some things that you, Sect Master, must confirm with yourselves."
"Moreover, instead of wasting energy arguing with Shrek, we should find a way to strengthen Liu Yuan's sense of belonging to our sect."
"Ultimately, this is Liu Yuan's own choice. If his heart is not with the Body Sect, even if you kill all the Shrek Academy members, it will be of no use."
"But if he's willing to stay with us wholeheartedly, it doesn't matter how big an olive branch Shrek or any other force extends."
Elder Chen concluded earnestly, "A person of Liu Yuan's extraordinary talent is destined to be courted by countless forces in the future."
"Sect Master, you can't possibly go and attack every single person who shows him kindness, can you? Therefore, cultivating a strong emotional bond between Liu Yuan and our sect is the real long-term solution."
Poison Undying stood in mid-air, lost in thought for a long time.
His chest, which had been heaving violently with anger, gradually calmed down, and finally, he dissipated the terrifying soul power around him.
"Go back to the palace."
Poison Undying uttered only two words before landing back inside the sect leader's hall.
Everyone gathered again.
Poison Undying sat on the black gold stone main seat, which was missing an armrest, and looked at Liu Yuan with a deep gaze.
The atmosphere inside the hall became extremely oppressive, as if even the air itself had frozen.
"Liu Yuan," Du Busi spoke slowly, his voice echoing in the hall.
"Regarding Shrek recruiting you, I now want to hear your true thoughts."
Liu Yuan stood in the center of the main hall, facing the sect leader's questioning. His expression was not flustered at all, and his tone was reasonable and firm.
"Master, I don't need to think too much about this matter."
"I, Liu Yuan, am wholeheartedly loyal to the Body Sect and have no other intentions."
Poison Undying didn't immediately smile. He stared into Liu Yuan's eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then asked in a highly seductive and hypothetical tone:
"Liu Yuan, if you're only staying because the Body Sect offered good terms, then let me ask you, what if Shrek Academy offered even more generous terms?"
"For example, if they give you more money than you could ever spend in several lifetimes, promise you countless beautiful women, or give you the most top-tier soul bone in the entire continent, or even directly promise you to become the future young master of the Sea God Pavilion, would you waver in the face of such status and resources?"
Upon hearing these words, Liu Yuan didn't even flinch. Almost the instant Du Busi finished speaking, he replied, "Master, even if they offer such conditions, I will not go."
He raised his head, his double pupils meeting Poison Undying's sharp gaze without fear.
"Master, perhaps you will think that I answered too quickly and that I was being perfunctory."
"But I, Liu Yuan, have always valued gratitude very much. From the time I was desperate to the time I entered the Body Sect, the sect has devoted countless efforts to me, and you have always done your best to nurture me."
"In Liu Yuan's heart, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude. If I were to betray the sect that gave me life and nurtured me simply because others offered me more benefits, then I, Liu Yuan, would not be myself."
"If you think I'm that kind of person, then you're underestimating me."
Liu Yuan's words were powerful and resounding, not only softening Du Busi's gaze, but also showing admiration from Vina, Long Aotian, and others standing nearby.
This composure in the face of enormous temptation truly shocked everyone.
However, before Poison Undying could even offer his praise, Liu Yuan continued, "Moreover, Master, there's actually an even more important reason why I'm not going to Shrek Academy."
Poison Undying was slightly taken aback and looked at Liu Yuan with some curiosity.
Vina, Elder Chen, and Long Aotian and other disciples also pricked up their ears, their faces full of curiosity.
Because they all wanted to hear what this supposedly more important reason was.
Liu Yuan then looked at the crowd in the main hall and continued speaking:
"because..."
"I was originally a member of Shrek Academy, but I was an outcast who was kicked out by them."
"A good horse doesn't turn back to eat the grass it already grazed. I've already been driven away by them, why should I go back?"
But when Poison Undying and the others heard this, they were all dumbfounded.
