Shrek Academys company began to move after their temporary astonishnt. Elder Xuans face was as gloomy as could be while he took everyone and raced toward the horizon.
Most of Shrek Academys powerful individuals didnt know what had happened, and nobody knew why this scene had occurred.
A handful of people, including Zhang Lexuan, could faintly guess that the Tang Sect had catalyzed and caused that apocalyptic episode in so way.
Wang Donger, Wang Qiuer, and Xiao Xiao were the clearest about the entire process. They were the ones who had installed the tid explosive bomb!
Huo Yuhao had deliberately damaged the elevator and the first floors gate before they exited the underground warehouse, so that the inevitable inspection to co would take as long as possible. Everything had been within his calculations. He didnt make a single mistake, and he was extrely precise even with their tid explosive bomb.
The only thing he hadnt predicted was the final explosions force and impact.
The tid explosive was placed beneath all the stationary cannon shells. There had been at least tens of thousands of stationary cannon shells, possibly more, that they hadnt been able to take away.
Huo Yuhaos goal had been simple; he wanted to destroy the underground warehouse, and he wanted the explosion to vaporize all the rare tals that they couldnt take away, along with all the low-level soul tools. That way, the Sun Moon Empires invasion plans would be delayed by the trendous losses.
According to Huo Yuhaos estimations of the stationary cannon shells, the explosive impact would only spread for one kiloter because the detonation was one hundred ters beneath the surface. The explosion would trigger an enormous earthquake, and the Illustrious Virtue Hall would take the full force of this disaster, as they were located right next to it!
The Sun Moon Empire would suffer unimaginable losses if this underground warehouse and the Illustrious Virtue Hall were destroyed at the sa ti, and that had been enough for him.
What Huo Yuhao didnt know was that there was another underground warehouse, dug out beneath the Illustrious Virtue Hall. This warehouse was even more protected and guarded than the one they had found, and a total of sixteen Class 9 stationary cannon shells were stored there. The explosion he had triggered awakened these tools of destruction slumbering deep beneath the ground.
Sixteen Class 9 stationary soul cannon shells, in addition to tens of thousands of stationary soul cannon shells below Class 5 everything compounded to create this calamity within Radiant City.
The Lightless Day of Destruction.
It was a day that the Sun Moon Empire would rember forever.
Shrek Academys team finally escaped into the western mountains. However, everyone felt as if their legs were going soft. They couldnt imagine how anybody could survive the core of that frightening explosion.
Lets take a break, Elder Xuan ordered with a black look on his face.
Elder Xuan was still holding Huo Yuhao, who seed as lifeless as a zombie iniside his soul tool, and quickly pulled him to one side. He lowered his voice and said, Everyone from the Tang Sect, co here. Wang Qiuer, Lexuan, co here as well.
Everyone lowered their heads and walked over briskly as they heard Elder Xuans solemn voice. The other powerful individuals from the academy had the sa thought. It cant be. The explosion within Radiant City was actually caused by
Nobody could stop this thought from flooding their minds, and everyones eyes turned slack.
Elder Xuan placed Huo Yuhaos soul tool on the ground. He lowered his voice and said, Open it and co out.
Huo Yuhao opened his human-shaped soul tool like a robot and revealed his ghastly pale face. Wang Donger hurriedly ca forward and helped him out.
Elder Xuan stared at Huo Yuhao, and then at the others around him. His face seed as solemn as could be as he said, Whos going to tell what happened? Speak now.
The lifelessness look in Huo Yuhaos eyes vanished, and his eyes beca focused once more. He raised his head determinedly and said, I did it, Elder Xuan. I was the one who set everything up. We discovered one of the Sun Moon Empires underground warehouses, and there were a lot of rare tals stored inside, along with hosts of soul tools and stationary soul cannon shells. I buried a tid explosive bomb beneath the stationary cannon shells.
Elder Xuan drew a cold breath. He had already guessed it, but he could still feel the imnse impact when he heard it from Huo Yuhaos mouth. He couldnt help but say, Yuhao, Yuhao! Do you know how many lives will have been lost, how many innocent citizens have died? We have to be the Continents guardians, not its executioners. You you
Huo Yuhao lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly. This was all my fault, Elder Xuan. I will not push away my responsibility, and you can punish in any way you wish. But can we settle that after we leave the western mountains? My Spiritual Detection should still be useful for everyone.
Huo Yuhao cant take all the bla, Elder Xuan, Wang Donger held Huo Yuhao tightly in her embrace, and sounded very emotional. We didnt know this would happen. Huo Yuhao discovered that underground warehouse with his Spiritual Detection, and he risked damage to his own spirit by separating his spiritual avatar today so that he could lead us into that underground warehouse, even though he was in a perilous situation himself. He did all that so that we could collect enough rare tals for the Tang Sect and the Academys future developnt. At the sa ti, he wanted to see if we could set the Sun Moon Empire back in so way so that we could disrupt their invasion plans in the future.
Huo Yuhao led us after we entered the underground palace, and we found where the rare tals were stored. There was just too much in there, so much that the Sun Moon Empire could easily mass produce soul tools for war. We went deeper inside, until we reached the third floor, where the manufactured soul tools were. We took the high-level stationary soul cannon shells and left everything else. Only those things could have detonated.
Huo Yuhao calculated it carefully. That place was one hundred ters below the surface, and its structure was exceptionally reinforced. The explosive impact wouldnt be that great even if an explosion was triggered inside the warehouse. Yuhao estimated that a small earthquake would occur, and the surface would tremble a little intensely, at most. Our main goal was to destroy the soul tools stored within that warehouse, and it would be great if the explosive force could destroy so of the rare tals outside. At the sa ti, the sounds produced by the explosion would give him an opportunity to escape the western suburbs.
Thus, we went ahead with the plan. We dont know why the explosive force suddenly beca so powerful. Everything has far exceeded our expectations, while the outco was also very abnormal. Huo Yuhao just wanted delay the Sun Moon Empires invasion plans. Think about it, Elder Xuan. This incident that has led to so much bloodshed and so many lives lost is truly an accident. However, such a circumstance only happened because so other unknown explosives were triggered. If those explosives, along with the soul tools and stationary cannon shells that we destroyed, were used in their invasion, so many more people would have died. Im afraid that number might have been ten tis or even one hundred tis more than the lives that were lost today. Therefore, I dont think Yuhao did anything wrong. If you wish to punish him, then punish too. I support everything that hes done.
Wang Dongers voice was unwaveringly determined as she clasped Huo Yuhaos right hand tightly.
Suffering bred true intimacy. Donger is standing with at such a crucial mont. She wasnt terrified by that frightening explosion, and she hasnt chided or scolded at all. Shes supporting !
Huo Yuhaos astonishnt, agony, guilt, helplessness, self-bla, and all his other negative emotions receded conspicuously in the face of her stubborn support. His psychological and ntal strength had always been superior to the average persons, and his lover was standing with him at a ti like this. Huo Yuhaos eyes were already determined, but now they began to flare with even more perseverance and fortitude.
Wang Qiuer walked out and stared at Elder Xuan as she said, Even if you insist on blaming soone, Huo Yuhao cant take all the bla. He was only in his spiritual form at the ti, and he couldnt do anything at all. Donger, Xiao Xiao, and I were the ones who installed that tid explosive bomb, so we are the perpetrators. And if we are, then so be it. Things have already turned out this way, so theres no point talking about it anymore.
Wang Qiuers words displayed her unswerving toughness, in contrast to Wang Dongers reasonable argunt. Her personality didnt change one bit, even though she was speaking to Elder Xuan.
Xiao Xiao nodded and said, Yes, Qiuer is right. The three of us are the perpetrators. This has nothing to do with Huo Yuhao. He was just helping us calculate, and only the three of us could execute any actual operations. We were the ones who made the final decision.
Huo Yuhao forced a laugh and said, You guys dont have to help carry this responsibility. A mistake is a mistake, and now that I think about it, triggering an explosion in that warehouse probably triggered an explosion in another warehouse. Those explosives were likely to be high-level soul tools stored within Illustrious Virtue Hall. I should have thought about that. Our explosion was so close to the Illustrious Virtue Hall, after all! Destroying the Illustrious Virtue Hall was part of our plan, but I was too eager to accomplish that, and being eager for success led to this disaster. Many innocent citizens are probably dead, especially so because the Continental Elite Youth Soul Master Tournant was still ongoing. There were surely many travelers in Radiant City.
He pressed his lips tightly together after this sentence. Even though he didnt like the Sun Moon Empire, the empires citizens were innocent, and the consequences of this disaster were unimaginable. He had no idea what the actual death count was like inside Radiant City.
Elder Xuans emotions had settled down a little. He was about to say sothing when an amiable, but sowhat authoritative voice rang out.
Elder Xuan, this matter has nothing to do with them at all. Yuhao and I were the ones who planned the whole thing, and I am the Tang Sects eldest senior brother, so I was the one who had the final say in whether we carried out this operation. All this would never have happened if I hadnt made that decision. I am no longer worthy of staying in the inner courtyard, and I request the Academy expel as punishnt.
Bei Beis voice was calm, but determined. His face was still a little pale, but he could move now. Bei Bei slowly walked in front of Huo Yuhao and stood between him and Elder Yuan.
Elder Xuans eyes shone as he stared at Bei Bei and waited for him to continue.
