Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 922: You Think You Can Stop Me?

TL: BluVerse

Yu Muchen's eyes sparkled, and he turned to look at Lan Xuanyu, feeling a slight stir in his heart.

The Treasure Seeking Beast was indeed very unusual. Most importantly, it knew many things about the God Realm. Even for god-level powerhouses like them, the God Realm was a very mysterious place, one they aspired to reach. At his level, the only thing he was interested in was how to continue getting stronger, just as the Treasure Seeking Beast mentioned, to become a first-rank god, capable of ruling an area.

But in front of Elder Yi, he couldn't possibly ask Lan Xuanyu if he was willing to part with such knowledge. It was unrealistic. While his heart was moved, he was also secretly astonished by Shrek Academy's heritage.

At the true god level, one was already at the pinnacle of the Federation. Even Elder Yi, who stood beside him, was only at the true god level. That was why the War God Temple had sent him here; he was already at the peak of humanity. Although he might not necessarily be a match for Elder Yi, he was at least a powerhouse of the same level.

But when it came to heritage, it was clear that Shrek Academy was indeed a shocking existence.

Yu Muchen continued his questioning, focusing especially on the situation and condition of Tianlong, as well as the details of the battle between Tianlong and Nana. He also inquired about the duration of Lan Xuanyu's acquaintance with Nana and her background.

Lan Xuanyu answered each question one by one, and the questioning lasted for over an hour.

Lan Xuanyu's emotions started to become somewhat agitated. The only thing he wanted to do now was to rescue Nana, and every minute of delay increased the risk to her.

"General Yu, I have explained everything clearly. Moreover, this was a mission we completed as part of the Sky Fighter Mission. I understand that this matter is of great importance to the Federation. But I am not a criminal. Teacher Nana's fate is unknown, and she fell into a star for the Federation. If the Federation can help me rescue Teacher Nana after your questioning, you can ask anything you want. Otherwise, I don't want to waste any more time," Lan Xuanyu suddenly said as Yu Muchen was about to ask more details.

"Hmm?" Yu Muchen was slightly taken aback. As the Head War God and a true god-level powerhouse, it had been many years since anyone dared to speak to him in such a tone. And this was just a graduate from Shrek Academy's Outer Court!

Lan Xuanyu turned to Elder Yi, "Elder Yi, Teacher Nana is in critical danger. I hope to return to the academy immediately to discuss ways to rescue her. I have said everything I needed to say."

Elder Yi nodded slightly, "I understand your feelings. General Yu, what do you think?"

Yu Muchen narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Elder Yi, you understand the gravity of this matter. It could even be said to concern the survival of the Federation. There can be no mistakes. Lan Xuanyu, I understand your feelings. But compared to the Federation's interests, I hope you understand which is more important. Before this matter is confirmed, you and your classmates must remain under military supervision. In the short term, you won't be able to do anything. Of course, if it is confirmed in the end, your contribution will be immense. The Sky Fighter Mission will be elevated from level five to level seven, or even level eight, benefiting you for a lifetime."

Lan Xuanyu became anxious upon hearing this, "General Yu, merits and honors are unimportant to me right now. I only want to rescue Teacher Nana. I can't accept being monitored by the Federation. Elder Yi, I must return to the academy immediately. I don't know how long Teacher Nana can hold on or if she is even alive. But I must go rescue her."

Elder Yi frowned slightly, his gaze calm yet resolute as he looked at Yu Muchen.

Yu Muchen's face darkened as well. "Young man, I've been very tolerant of you. Don't push your luck."

Although he was very wary of Elder Yi, this matter was too important, and Lan Xuanyu was the key to it. How could he easily let him go?

"What if he is pushing his luck? What can you do about it?" At this moment, a somewhat icy voice sounded.

Yu Muchen and Elder Yi's faces changed simultaneously. Instinctively, they looked in a certain direction.

With a flash of golden light, a figure appeared, stepping out from the glow.

"Uncle Le!" Upon seeing the newcomer, Lan Xuanyu was overjoyed. He stood up and rushed over, leaping into the arms of Mister Le.

The Treasure-Seeking Beast, which had not yet returned to his body, stared blankly at Mister Le and muttered to itself, "Is this… the Golden Dragon King?"

Yu Muchen also stood up by this time, his expression grave. The moment this person stepped into the room, he felt an immense threat, like an ancient fierce beast exuding a powerful oppressive force.

A faint golden aura radiated from Mister Le, cold and domineering, yet also filled with a sense of scorching heat and madness. It was as if a living volcano had suddenly been relocated into the room.

A True God-level powerhouse!

Yu Muchen instantly sensed the immense strength of the other party. This person was also a True God-level powerhouse, and yet, in his memory, he had never known of such a powerhouse.

In the Federation, there were very few True God-level powerhouses above level 110. He knew almost all of them. But this one before him was completely unfamiliar. As a high-ranking military officer, he had a clear understanding of the statistics regarding powerful individuals.

He turned to look at Elder Yi. "Elder Yi, is this person also from Shrek?"

Elder Yi glanced at him, then shifted his gaze back to Tang Le, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, even carrying some indescribable emotions. Nodding slightly, he said, "Yes."

Yu Muchen drew in a sharp breath. Shrek Academy actually had another unknown True God-level powerhouse. This news was extremely significant for the entire Federation!

A True God-level powerhouse was a strategic asset, one that could even alter the balance of power between major forces.

"Let's go," Tang Le said, patting Lan Xuanyu's back without even glancing at Yu Muchen.

"You can't leave," Yu Muchen's eyes flashed as he stepped forward, instantly appearing in front of Lan Xuanyu and Tang Le. The air around him suddenly dimmed.

Tang Le's gaze turned icy. In his right hand, a fierce golden light ignited.

It was a golden spear, without a handle, with golden spearheads on both ends. As the spear appeared, the aura emanating from him became frenzied.

"You think you can stop me?" The spear was thrust up, and circles of golden rings appeared in the air.

Yu Muchen hadn't expected the other party to attack without warning. A huge scythe, black as ink and emitting a blue aura, instantly appeared in his hand. But the next moment, he was horrified to find himself immobilized. The circles of golden rings closed in from left and right. The power he had just released was immediately restrained, as if completely beyond his control. Under the confinement of the golden rings, this dignified True God-level powerhouse felt utterly powerless.

In the next moment, the Treasure-Seeking Beast had already plunged into Lan Xuanyu's forehead. Tang Le snorted coldly, tore open the space, and took Lan Xuanyu into it, disappearing without a trace.

The golden rings slowly dissipated only after he vanished. Yu Muchen staggered slightly, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Both were True God-level powerhouses, but he distinctly felt he was no match for the other.

"Elder Yi, what does Shrek Academy mean by this?" He turned around sharply, both shocked and angry.

Elder Yi said calmly, "Although this person is part of Shrek Academy, he can also be considered not part of it. Because Shrek has no authority over him. In terms of status, he is far above me. What do you think we mean by this? Moreover, your military has no right to detain our students. Today, it ends here. I am taking all the students with me. Even if your palace master were here, the answer would be the same."
