(Doulou Dalu Two) Reincarnated as Huo Yuhao, My wife is Lady Sparkle

"The old man… he's still alive."

"I'm badly injured, but he can't die."

Xuanzi wasn't concerned about his injury, but rather why he had been struck by thunder.

There were so many people at Shrek's gate, and it was indeed strange that out of those ten thunderbolts, not a single one had struck anyone else, only him, an old man over two hundred years old.

"Poof~"

Xuanzi spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Elder Xuan, you're vomiting blood..."

Du Weilun's mouth opened slightly, but he stopped himself from speaking further.

"He deserves it. Leave him alone."

At that moment, a somewhat frail figure appeared at the registration office, causing the pupils of those who recognized him to shrink.

The... This one actually came out in person?

"... Great-grandfather?"

Bei Bei shouted in his heart but didn't voice it aloud.

He never expected that this incident would actually alarm his old man.

When Xuanzi was about to kill Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei had been extremely nervous, even feeling a chill run down his spine.

He hadn't anticipated that the usually amiable old man could harbor such intense killing intent.

Although Huo Yuhao's words had been harsh, they were not untrue.

Still, as someone from Shrek's side, it was uncomfortable to hear such criticism.

"Was that thunder just now caused by the great ancestor?"

Bei Bei wondered silently, glancing at Mu En.

Mu En's martial soul was the Bright Holy Dragon, which had evolved from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul.

While the Bright Holy Dragon was powerful, it couldn't match the sheer thunderous might of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

Evolution had its advantages, but the absence of evolution didn't necessarily mean weakness.

"Mu... Elder Mu?!!"

Du Weilun and Xuanzi choked on their saliva, staring at Mu En in shock.

Wait, what had Mu En just said?

Did he say Xuanzi deserved it?

"Elder Mu, what do you mean by this?"

Xuanzi asked, puzzled.

From what he knew of Mu En, the thunder just now couldn't have been his doing.

Although Mu En possessed the strength to summon such power, he wouldn't use it in this manner, especially when it came to thunder.

Xuanzi was genuinely confused, not questioning Mu En, he didn't have the courage to do so.

"Hmph~ What do I mean?"

Mu En snorted coldly and continued, "Xuanzi, the old man isn't dead yet. Are you trying to tarnish the glory of Shrek Academy?"

"Everything this young friend said is true. Instead of reflecting on it, you tried to silence him by force. Is this the conduct and honor of Shrek Academy?"

"Xuanzi, have you grown senile?"

Hearing this, Xuanzi trembled, his mouth opening slightly as he muttered, "I was only acting for the good of the academy..."

"If he grows up..."

"Smack..."

With a wave of his hand, Mu En sent a golden light rushing toward Xuanzi, knocking him away.

"You're still making excuses? Today, the old man will teach you a lesson!"

Xuanzi spun two and a half times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground, the confusion in his eyes deepening.

Elder Mu had slapped him?

Seeing this, Du Weilun and the others broke into a cold sweat, their backs already drenched.

This... Was this something they were supposed to witness?

There was no issue with Elder Mu disciplining Elder Xuan, whether in terms of seniority or strength, Elder Mu had every right to do so.

But was this a scene meant for the eyes of juniors?

It would have been better to teach him in private...

After all, Elder Xuan was a ninety-eighth-level Super Douluo.

Didn't he deserve to save face?

"Xuanzi, you've truly grown old. Now, return to the Sea God Pavilion for seclusion. You are not to leave without my permission!"

The lesson served as a warning to Xuanzi, a display to the onlookers, and a gesture to Huo Yuhao.

Since the adult didn't kill Xuanzi, it shows that Xuanzi still holds some value.

Mu En didn't know that Tang San didn't want to kill Xuanzi, he simply couldn't.

Privately lowering divine power had already attracted the attention of the God King of Destruction, let alone killing a ninety-eighth-level existence.

The moment Xuanzi made a move against Huo Yuhao, Tang San had already marked him for death in his heart.

If you are certain it's an enemy, strike them down with thunder!

Hearing this, Xuanzi stood up shakily.

He glanced at Mu En, then at Huo Yuhao, and finally said nothing.

Turning around, he walked toward the Sea God Pavilion, his figure now carrying an air of loneliness.

He would wait for Mu En to explain why he had acted as he did.

After Xuanzi left, Mu En's angry expression softened, and he turned to Huo Yuhao and Huahuo with a kind smile.

"Little friends, are you satisfied with how I handled this matter?"

"Hiss~"

Everyone gasped, their minds going slightly numb.

Although the freshmen and older students didn't know the identity of this old man, his strength was undeniable...

No one had expected this old man to be so kind and reasonable toward Huo Yuhao and Huahuo.

Du Weilun's body trembled slightly. This was intense!

Had he known that Mu En held Huo Yuhao and Huahuo in such high regard, he wouldn't have dared to even raise his voice at them, let alone punish them.

Huahuo stepped forward, his eyes carrying a mix of disdain and coldness. He spoke casually, "Old man, your way of handling this is just to preserve the reputation of your academy. It seems like you've dealt with it, but in reality, there's no real loss at all!"

Everyone: "..."

They thought Huo Yuhao was bold, but here was someone even more daring!

Everyone trembled, but Mu En merely stroked his chin, deep in thought.

"Has he seen through it?"

"Worthy of someone who has caught the attention of Sea God."

Mu En mused silently.

Huahuo was right.

On the surface, it seemed like Xuanzi had been dealt with, humiliated and confined, but in reality, there was no real loss.

Of course, there was some minor damage, given the number of people present.

The glory of Shrek Academy would undoubtedly take a slight hit.

"What the little friend says is reasonable. Xuanzi's impulsiveness has caused harm to the two of you."

Everyone: "..."

They didn't know what to say anymore.

This "unusual" powerhouse, how could he be so fond of Huahuo and Huo Yuhao?

In truth, Mu En was indeed very fond of Huahuo and Huo Yuhao.

Coupled with the intervention of that adult, his fondness for them had only grown.

No matter the cost, he was determined to keep the two at Shrek Academy.

Of course, he wouldn't use Xuanzi's methods, that would be far too foolish.

"As Xuanzi's uncle, I also bear some responsibility for his actions."

"In that case, as long as the two little friends forgive him and agree to join Shrek Academy, this old man is willing to compensate each of you with a treasure!"

Before anyone could react, Huo Yuhao stepped forward and asked, "If we don't join Shrek Academy, does that mean there will be no compensation?"

Everyone: "..."

It had to be him. Always finding the most unexpected angle.

Even after all this, you still don't want to join Shrek Academy?

Mu En nearly lost his composure at this moment, but his years of experience and high level of cultivation allowed him to remain calm.

He had seen too much in his long life to be easily angered.

"Even if you don't join the academy, the compensation will still be given."
