One had to admit—after years of holding a high position in Shrek Academy, Yan Shaozhe had mastered the art of political scheming, even if he lacked the grand and righteous charisma of Mu En.
After his initial anger faded, Yan Shaozhe immediately sensed that something was off.
He didn't know exactly what the mastermind was planning, but one thing was certain—this wasn't just about tarnishing Shrek's reputation. There was something far more sinister at play!
And Yan Shaozhe wasn't wrong.
Because Lin Yun—wasn't going to give Shrek time to react!
Not only was he piling on pressure while Shrek was already overwhelmed, but he was also fueling the obsession of those who had read Entwined Dragon and Phoenix, ensuring they were eagerly waiting for its sequel—
Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony!
This sequel was Lin Yun's first true killing blow against Shrek!
A Thousand Copies in a Single Night!
As the undisputed king of plant-type soul beasts, the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts had spiritual power second only to the Evil-Eyed Tyrant Lord.
For him, mass-producing Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony, written by Qing Ye, was laughably easy.
When Saint Xin handed over the completed manuscript, it took the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts only one night to produce over ten thousand copies!
Deep within the forest, the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts waved his hand, scattering countless seeds into the ground. These seeds absorbed the lifeforce of the surrounding Blue Silver Grass, rapidly growing into identical copies of himself—countless middle-aged men, each identical to him in appearance.
"Go," he ordered coldly.
"Spread His Excellency's will across the entire Douluo Continent!"
A sinister grin spread across the faces of his clones.
Each carrying large quantities of Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony, they dispersed in all directions, infecting every corner of the continent.
Just as Shrek was still struggling to deal with the chaos of Entwined Dragon and Phoenix—
The sequel had already been unleashed.
And this time—
It spread even faster than before.
By the time Shrek realized it, Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony had already swept across the Douluo Continent in a single night!
Synopsis of Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony
Decades later—
The two young men from the past had both grown into Titled Douluo-level powerhouses.
Now, they served as the Dean and Vice Dean of Shrek Academy's Martial Soul and Soul Tool Departments, becoming figures of immense prestige and reverence.
Yet, under the weight of countless gazes, the two could only bury their true feelings deep within their hearts, never daring to speak of them.
But fate was unpredictable.
One day, Qian Duoduo sat in his office, troubled by the future of Shrek's Soul Tool Department.
His thoughts were interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.
The visitor? Fan Yu—Shrek Academy's youngest Rank 8 Soul Engineer, with the potential to become a Rank 9 Master Engineer.
Fan Yu had a wife—Zhou Yi, an Outer Court instructor.
However, due to her "unorthodox teaching methods" and "unyielding personality", many students under her had been expelled.
This led to outrage from students and parents alike, who demanded that Shrek Academy fire Zhou Yi.
The situation escalated when one of the expelled students, after enduring inhumane training, was permanently injured and could never cultivate again.
With tensions at their peak, Fan Yu, as Zhou Yi's husband, had no choice but to stand by her—despite knowing she was at fault.
So, he sought out Qian Duoduo for help.
Initially, Qian Duoduo wanted nothing to do with it.
But as he gazed at Fan Yu's strong posture, his proud and determined aura—
He was suddenly reminded of someone from his past…
His resolve wavered.
His heart stirred.
"You're still quite charming yourself."
Qian Duoduo smiled.
Fan Yu limped out of the Soul Tool Department Dean's office, while Qian Duoduo walked toward the Martial Soul Department Dean's office with a cheerful mood.
At the first sight of Yan Shaozhe, having just experienced the taste of Fan Yu, Qian Duoduo could no longer hold back and affectionately embraced Yan Shaozhe.
"Brother, you smell so good!" Qian Duoduo said gently.
"Brother… Brother!" Yan Shaozhe's eyes filled with tears as he and Qian Duoduo shared a deep gaze.
After wildly releasing decades of suppressed emotions, Qian Duoduo mentioned Zhou Yi to Yan Shaozhe and, citing Fan Yu as the future pillar of the Soul Tool Department, requested Yan Shaozhe to turn a blind eye to Zhou Yi.
Having regained his beloved Yan Shaozhe readily agreed to Qian Duoduo's request.
From then on, Qian Duoduo held Fan Yu in his left arm and Yan Shaozhe in his right, feeling no regrets in love and becoming the winner in life.
Yan Shaozhe also embraced Cai Mei'er and Xian Lin'er on either side, sitting in Qian Duoduo's arms and enjoying a happy life.
The End of Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony.
Compared to Entwined Dragon and Phoenix, Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony was clearly more heavyweight, and the illustrations were more bold and unrestrained, as there were really no specific prohibitions in the world of soul masters.
Therefore, the illustrations didn't even have any mosaics.
The illustrations of Qian Duoduo passionately wrestling with Fan Yu and Yan Shaozhe were indeed a bit intense, making Douluo people feel their eyes burn while also irresistibly wanting to keep reading.
While the Douluo Continent did have quite a few people infatuated with love, those were normal feelings between men and women; however, the existence of something so heavyweight as Shrek was truly unprecedented.
Uh… maybe not.
At least after Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony was released, many forbidden loves that had been hidden beneath the surface began to emerge. Even the Titled Douluo Deans of Shrek Academy no longer cared about the eyes of the world—so why shouldn't we, the weaker ones, be like them?
We may not have their powerful strength, but we can have hearts just as strong!
From that day on, Shrek Academy received a large number of letters of gratitude, thanking the Deans of Shrek Academy for giving them the courage to live openly in the sunlight.
In major cities, there were many more people showing intimacy, but they were not a man and a woman; rather, they were either two men or two women.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Wulong and Your Majesty Mingfeng, for giving us the courage to live again!" a pair of muscle-bound men filled with brotherly love said gratefully.
"Yeah! We thought we'd have to live our whole lives as 'sisters'!" a pair of young, beautiful women holding hands laughed in agreement.
But after the wave of forbidden love passed, someone noticed something odd.
"Do you guys remember those two teachers at the beginning of Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony, named Fan Yu and Zhou Yi?" someone suddenly asked.
"Yeah! We actually have a guy in our city who was expelled from Shrek. He's a pretty good genius! I heard he was kicked out because he often went hungry and couldn't afford warm clothes when he was a child, which left him weak and unable to engage in strenuous activity for long periods, and that's why that teacher expelled him!"
"What the hell! Just because of being weak, they randomly expelled him?"
People began whispering among themselves and exchanged news from all over the Douluo Continent, ultimately discovering: those who were inexplicably expelled had Zhou Yi as their homeroom teacher!
The teacher who randomly expelled students in Dragon and Phoenix in Harmony really existed in Shrek Academy?!(End of this chapter)
