Arthur held the Excalibur in his hand. The moment his feet touched the ground, the holy sword swept in a circle, transforming into an insurmountable barrier that forcibly knocked back both Le Zheng Yu and Yuan En Yehui simultaneously.
Le Zheng Yu felt a surge of immense force travel up the blade of his sword, making his arm go numb. He staggered back several steps, the golden flames around him flickering violently, nearly dissipating.
Yuan En Yehui's Martial Soul possession directly collapsed. The black wings behind her back vanished.
She crouched weakly, and her condition only began to improve once she switched to her Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul.
At the same time, a strange look appeared in her eyes as she gazed at the holy sword in Arthur's hand.
The aura of this sword actually made her Fallen Angel Martial Soul feel afraid.
Le Zheng Yu looked up in shock, his heart skipping a beat when he saw Arthur's calm, sacred cyan eyes.
At that moment, the teacher on duty from Shrek Academy arrived, a Two-Word Battle Armor master descending from above.
"What's going on?" the teacher's voice carried the pressure of a powerful Soul Master as his gaze swept back and forth between Arthur, Le Zheng Yu, and Yuan En Yehui.
Le Zheng Yu jumped up and pointed at Yuan En Yehui, shouting, "Teacher! She's an Evil Soul Master! Her Martial Soul is the Fallen Angel; I was just upholding justice!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Arthur, his tone tinged with grievance and accusation: "Cou... Arthur even helped the Evil Soul Master deal with me."
Hearing this, the teacher's gaze landed on Yuan En Yehui, his eyes filled with scrutiny.
Arthur took a step forward.
One was his nephew, and the other was related to his future plans.
He had to handle this matter himself.
Taking out the Sea Gods Pavilion Token Ya Li had given him, he tossed it to the teacher and said dominantly, "The Sea Gods Pavilion is handling this case. I'll take charge; you may leave."
The teacher's pupils constricted, and he almost subconsciously reached out to catch the medallion.
He looked down at the patterns on the medallion, and when he looked back at Arthur, the scrutiny in his eyes had long since turned into reverence as he hurriedly bowed in salute.
After returning the medallion to Arthur, the teacher vanished in the blink of an eye, making a quick exit.
Le Zheng Yu froze on the spot. Watching the scene unfold, he suddenly recalled the arrogant words Arthur had said when they first met about being able to expel him.
Wait, bro, you weren't bragging?
Arthur turned his head toward Yuan En Yehui. "You tell me, what happened?"
Looking at the holy sword in his hand, a chill ran down Yuan En Yehui's spine, and she immediately gave a quick explanation of the events.
Then, she submissively took out her identification: "My identity has been verified by the Sea Gods Pavilion."
"Although I possess the Fallen Angel Martial Soul, I am not an Evil Soul Master."
Arthur took the ID, felt that the seal on it matched the aura of the Sea Gods Pavilion Token, and tossed it back to Yuan En Yehui.
He then looked at Le Zheng Yu and asked, "Do you have any objections to her account?"
"Arthur... Granduncle." Le Zheng Yu swallowed hard, his previous arrogance completely gone. "Don't be fooled by this Evil Soul Master! How can someone with a Fallen Angel Martial Soul not be an Evil Soul Master?!"
What is he babbling about?
Despite having been warned, Le Zheng Yu was still being stubborn.
Yuan En Yehui was completely innocent in this matter, while Le Zheng Yu had been the one pushing her every step of the way, even threatening her life.
This was even worse than school bullying.
Arthur, the helpful messenger of justice, was about to strike hard!
He tapped the holy sword lightly against the ground. A mental Spirit Ability provided by his hundred thousand year spirit bone extended from the ground along the sword.
A mental Domain expanded: [Return to the Void].
Terrifying Spirit Abyss Realm Spiritual Power spread out from the tip of the Excalibur. With Arthur as the center, the surrounding space seemed to be covered by an invisible film.
[Return to the Void], the mental Domain from the hundred thousand year spirit bone, submerged all stray thoughts and restlessness within its range like a tide.
Le Zheng Yu felt a 'buzz' in his mind, and his obsession with shouting "Yuan En Yehui is an Evil Soul Master" was instantly crushed to pieces.
Even the aura of his holy fire dimmed. He stood dazed on the spot, his eyes becoming completely vacant.
A moment later.
Arthur slowly withdrew the holy sword, and the mental Domain receded.
Le Zheng Yu shook his head, his vacant eyes gradually regaining focus, but his previous relentless attitude was long gone.
It was replaced by a sense of lingering fear and shame.
He looked at Arthur and then at Yuan En Yehui. His lips trembled for a long time, but he couldn't squeeze out a single word.
In the end, he could only pathetically spread his white wings and flee into the distance without looking back, not even daring to leave an explanation.
Yuan En Yehui stood up straight as her Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul quietly receded. Her face was still pale as she gave Arthur a slight nod.
Her cold voice carried a hint of gratitude: "Thank you... for last time as well."
"It's nothing." Arthur waved his hand, preparing to leave.
"Wait."
Yuan En Yehui called out to him, her cold voice tinged with hesitation.
She pursed her lips, seemingly weighing her words.
"Was what you said before about being able to help me solve the problem with the Fallen Angel Martial Soul true?"
Arthur became interested. "What, you've changed your mind?"
Recalling the scene where her Fallen Angel Martial Soul had collapsed upon contact with Arthur's holy sword just now.
Yuan En Yehui pleaded, "Please help me remove this Martial Soul. I'll do anything you want."
"Huh?" Arthur scratched his head.
That wasn't what he meant!
What the heck was this about removing the Fallen Angel Martial Soul?
Arthur's original intention was to let Yuan En Yehui Cultivate in peace and that he would handle the issues with the Demon Plane in the future.
While thinking, Arthur had an epiphany. He remembered that at this point in time, Yuan En Yehui didn't know anything yet.
She was completely ignorant of the secrets of her Martial Soul and what had happened to the Yuan En Family back then.
At this moment, Yuan En Yehui was merely someone often mistaken for an Evil Soul Master by the outside world, and her Family had placed immense psychological pressure on her.
It made her afraid and fearful, worrying that her Martial Soul might bring about ominous consequences.
"About this..."
If Yuan En Yehui didn't know anything, it would be hard to handle.
Arthur said with a headache, "How about this: when you're free, take me to your Family once, and we can solve the problem with this Martial Soul."
"What does it have to do with my Family?" Yuan En Yehui was somewhat resistant; she didn't want to go back.
"The water here is very deep; I can only say that those who understand, understand." Arthur shrugged and turned to leave. "Think it over. When you've made up your mind, come find me. I'll accompany you whenever you're ready."
Yuan En Yehui watched Arthur's retreating back and clenched her fists.
Should she go back?
She thought of those strange looks from her Family and how her elders always hesitated whenever the Fallen Angel was mentioned.
Most importantly, she had witnessed her own grandfather coldly drive her mother to her death and cripple her father.
A long time passed.
Yuan En Yehui walked away in the opposite direction.
Things had already come to this.
Better go to work; she was almost late.
