As soon as Xiao Wu stepped out of her room, she saw two familiar figures walking towards her.
Xiao Wu sighed softly, then mustered her courage and walked towards them as if nothing had happened!
"You're Xiao Wu? Where are you going?" Ning Rongrong asked in surprise as she got closer!
Zhu Zhuqing's fair face also showed a strange expression!
Xiao Wu nodded and said, "Yes, Zhuqing, Rongrong, I have something I need to go home for!"
With that, without waiting for any reaction from Ning Rongrong or Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu walked out of the school without looking back!
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong exchanged glances, both showing puzzled expressions.
The grand drama in the Dean's office was already coming to an end. Tang San, unaware of the Clear Sky Douluo's true worth, asked, puzzled, "Teacher, is Dad really that amazing?"
Yu Xiaogang said excitedly, "Of course! Your father was the youngest Titled Douluo on the Douluo Continent at that time. He came from the Clear Sky Sect. You probably don't know about the Clear Sky Sect, but it's one of the Upper Three Sects on the Douluo Continent, on par with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! You wouldn't believe it back then..."
Yu Xiaogang vividly and continuously praised Tang Hao, showering him with compliments, talking about everything imaginable.
Tang San listened, stunned, and was overjoyed, never expecting to have such a profound background, which also made Tang San yearn for Immortal Herbs!
"Teacher, where did Dad go? Do you know? I haven't seen him in a long time!" Tang San said with some helplessness. Thinking of his elusive father, Tang San felt both fortunate and helpless. Fortunate that his father was a Titled Douluo, but helpless that his father was so unreliable. Tang San could only play 'Where's Dad!'
Yu Xiaogang shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know either. I haven't seen him in a long time!"
Tang San was startled, his expression somewhat disappointed, and he felt uneasy.
Not only was Tang San disappointed, but everyone in the room felt disappointed, especially Dai Mubai, who wished Tang San well more than anyone.
It was just that Yu Xiaogang's so-called solution was equivalent to no solution at all, as Tang Hao's whereabouts couldn't even be found now!
...
A bright moon hung in the sky, with countless stars twinkling. The brilliant moonlight sprinkled across the World, draping it in a silver veil.
Outside Soto City, it was dim and dark, with no lights, but under the moonlight, it had a unique charm.
In the darkness, Xiao Wu, carrying a bundle, hurriedly left Shrek Academy. Her furtive appearance was like that of a thief!
Seeing Xiao Wu's figure appear, Lin Chen inexplicably shook his head. To say Tang San was infatuated with Xiao Wu, Lin Chen simply didn't believe it.
It was understandable that Mysterious Heaven Skill wasn't passed on to Xiao Wu, as it was Tang San's biggest secret. Lin Chen agreed with this point; even if it were Lin Chen himself, he wouldn't do it unless he possessed invincible strength, otherwise he would forever bury Mysterious Heaven Skill deep in his heart.
But the Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight had twenty-four one-cubic-meter storage spaces. What was the harm in taking out two and giving them to Xiao Wu? Why did Xiao Wu have to carry such a large bundle?
If he couldn't even bear to part with that, what else was there to say?
Lin Chen's mind stirred, and the Star Orbit connection was complete. His figure disappeared from where he stood.
Xiao Wu fled without stopping, continuously moving away from Shrek Academy for a full three kilometers before slowing down.
"Mom was right, human hearts truly are treacherous," Xiao Wu complained as she walked, her distorted face looking very strange.
"Hmm?" Xiao Wu, suddenly feeling a slight abnormality, turned her head and searched behind her.
Seeing no abnormalities, she breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, her twisted face suddenly froze, and she immediately closed her eyes, completely losing consciousness and falling to the ground.
"She's quite alert!" Lin Chen muttered with a smile. Shadow System magic was quite overpowered in the dark. Lin Chen hadn't expected Xiao Wu's perception to be so sensitive. Was it a rabbit's sense of smell?
Lin Chen, not understanding why, didn't think much of it. He took out a silver rectangular metal box from the Spirit World. The box glowed with a faint luminescence, and its surface was covered with many complex patterns.
Lin Chen raised an eyebrow as the luminescence gradually intensified. A golden light projected from one end of the metal box, enveloping Xiao Wu on the ground.
Xiao Wu's body gradually floated up, slowly approaching the metal box along the golden light. As the distance between them grew shorter, Xiao Wu's body became smaller and smaller, finally disappearing completely into the rectangular metal box, leaving only Xiao Wu's bundle behind.
Lin Chen didn't hesitate, directly putting Xiao Wu's bundle and the metal box in his hand into the Spirit World, then headed back towards Shrek Academy.
Soon, Lin Chen returned to the outside of Shrek Academy. Just as he was about to release his mental force, he saw Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong walking out of the school gate, chatting and laughing.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong quickened their pace after seeing Lin Chen. After a moment, the two arrived in front of Lin Chen.
"They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Lin Chen asked with concern. He had just gone to catch the rabbit and hadn't paid attention to the subsequent situation.
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, "They only asked for the reason. Dean Flender didn't make things difficult for us, but Dai Mubai hopes that what happened between him and me won't be revealed for now!"
"And you agreed?" Lin Chen asked.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded and said, "He probably still wants to make a final effort!"
"Now he wants to fight? What was he doing before!" Before Lin Chen could speak, Ning Rongrong said angrily. After learning about Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's true identities and experiences, Ning Rongrong had always stood up for Zhu Zhuqing, looked down on Dai Mubai from the bottom of her heart, and detested him!
Hearing this, Lin Chen smiled slightly. None of that mattered, as long as Zhu Zhuqing could escape the quagmire.
However, Dai Mubai's calmness made him think more highly of him. Unfortunately, his intentions were good, but reality was cruel. This World had already undergone many butterfly effects due to Lin Chen's arrival.
If it were in the original work, even without Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai would have had a glimmer of hope, but now that possibility had completely vanished.
The Shrek Seven Devils' greatest opportunity was the Immortal Herb. Without the Immortal Herb, let alone becoming a god, becoming a Titled Douluo would be a luxury.
Their talent was good, but only just good. Someone with Dai Mubai's talent, even if he grew up smoothly, would at most become a Spirit Douluo.
Ning Rongrong's talent was certainly good, but without the Immortal Herb, a Spirit Saint would be her limit.
