They no longer dared to stay in Heaven Dou City, Yu Xiaogang and the others.
Tang Chen's whereabouts had already been leaked; who knew if their contact with him had also been discovered?
Yu Xiaogang even suspected that the feng shui in Heaven Dou City was problematic.
Otherwise, why couldn't anything get done?
Perhaps Lin Xiao was deliberately hindering them.
When Liu Erlong learned of Shrek's group's thoughts, hesitation and conflict appeared on her face.
"Xiaogang, are we really going to the Star Luo Empire?"
"What about the Academy?"
Yu Xiaogang waved his hand grandly.
"I'll leave the Academy in Flender's care."
Ever since Flender was severely injured by Lin Xiao, he had been in a semi-crippled state. Not only could he not fight, but he could barely use his Soul Power.
He had been recuperating these past few days, but it was to no avail.
With his spirit dejected, he could only place all his hopes on Shrek Academy, fantasizing about creating a top academy on the continent.
Liu Erlong sighed.
"Given Flender's condition, how can he manage the Academy alone?"
Yu Xiaogang pondered.
"Then you, Erlong, can stay in Heaven Dou City with Flender. You don't seem very eager to go to the Star Luo Empire anyway. If you stay here, you can pass any information to me immediately."
Liu Erlong nodded.
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "Then I'll stay in Heaven Dou City with Teacher Erlong too?"
Although Lin Xiao had asked Xiao Wu to help monitor Tang San, Xiao Wu really didn't want to go to the Star Luo Empire. Following this unreliable group from Shrek, if things went wrong, no one would be able to save her.
Besides, even Tang Chen had been dealt with.
There was probably no need to monitor Tang San anymore, right?
Tang San did not object.
Although he wanted Xiao Wu to accompany him, he didn't want her to take risks with him.
He had already made up his mind.
Once he established himself in the Star Luo Empire, he would bring Xiao Wu over and confess the feelings he had hidden in his heart for so many years...
The matter of going to the Star Luo Empire was decided.
Before leaving, Dai Mubai wanted to see Zhu Zhuqing one last time.
This was his final chance for Zhu Zhuqing.
...
At the entrance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Dai Mubai waited for a long time before finally seeing Zhu Zhuqing emerge after her daily training.
Compared to her time at Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing's demeanor had become even colder.
The young woman was dressed in a sleek, black leather outfit that accentuated her explosive figure. Her doll-like face showed no superfluous expression. Her hair had changed significantly; tied into a high ponytail, she appeared much taller and more aloof.
Dai Mubai hadn't pursued women in a long time.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's attire at this moment, his mouth suddenly felt dry.
"Zhu Zhuqing!"
Dai Mubai shouted loudly.
Zhu Zhuqing glanced sideways and, upon seeing it was Dai Mubai, a flicker of disgust crossed her face. She then turned to leave, giving Dai Mubai no opportunity.
Dai Mubai's face darkened, and he hissed in a low voice.
"Are you really so tired of seeing me?"
"Zhu Zhuqing, do you know this is the last time I'm coming to find you!"
"Do you think you can escape your fate by hiding in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? You can hide for a while, but can you hide forever?"
"If you change your mind now, I can let bygones be bygones! When I return to Star Luo and inherit the throne, you will still be the Empress! With the help of Xiao San and the others, I might still be able to contend with Dai Weisi!"
Zhu Zhuqing turned back, her expression unreadable.
Extreme disgust was mixed with contempt and disdain, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, as if she were watching a clown's joke.
This made Dai Mubai furious!
Zhu Zhuqing said coldly, "Remember what you said."
"This is the last time you come to me."
After that, without caring what Dai Mubai wanted to say, she simply left.
Dai Mubai trembled with rage.
This was blatant disregard! Far more cutting than any insult!
Dai Mubai's eyes were about to split, his head lowered, the anger in his gaze seeming to devour people, his face contorted like a wild beast.
"Zhu! Zhu! Qing!"
"One day, I will make you regret what you've done!"
"I will eventually trample your pride into the dirt, you damn bitch!"
Dai Mubai had arrived full of anticipation.
In the end, he left dejectedly.
...
Lin Xiao was escorted by Bo Saixi all the way.
They parted ways upon reaching the shore.
Then, Lin Xiao transformed into his Phoenix True Body and returned to Heaven Dou City at extreme speed.
Two days later, he arrived at Heaven Dou City.
He first wrote a letter to Qian Daoliu, informing him that Tang Chen had been executed.
Then he returned to the Ye Residence.
After Lin Xiao returned, he learned that Tang Yuehua had left the Ye Residence after the fall of the Clear Sky Sect, and her whereabouts were unknown.
Ye Qingxian sighed:
"She's all talk and no action, always saying she wouldn't concern herself with the Clear Sky Sect anymore, but when something happened to them, she just left without a word."
Lin Xiao's impression of Tang Yuehua actually improved somewhat.
Call her foolish, call her nostalgic.
Ultimately, she was a person with both affection and righteousness.
However, Lin Xiao had no intention of finding Tang Yuehua. After all, they were all adults and would make different choices.
But what was the same was that everyone had to be responsible for the choices they made.
He could only respect Tang Yuehua's choice.
Lin Xiao briefly recounted the events of the past few days to Ye Qingxian, including meeting Bo Saixi and his trip to Sea God Island.
"I didn't stay on Sea God Island for long."
"After all, it's fine to relax occasionally, but staying too long becomes complacency."
"Fortunately, this trip was not without its rewards."
"Although I refused to inherit the Sea God's Godhood, I did introduce Bing'er to the Sea God."
Compared to other gods, the Sea God was already among the top-tier Level 1 gods, and his connections could be considered quite good, with his own foundation on the Douluo Continent.
Coupled with his affinity with Bing'er's attributes.
It was indeed a very good choice.
Ye Qingxian nodded slightly.
"I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity."
"So, Bing'er will be leaving in a while, is that right?"
Lin Xiao nodded.
"On Sea God Island, Bing'er's cultivation speed will be much faster."
"And she's quite competitive. Although she hasn't said it, I can tell she always wants to catch up to me."
"Perhaps going to Sea God Island will put her mind at ease."
Ye Qingxian felt quite touched upon hearing this.
"Bing'er is a good girl."
Shui Bing'er was more diligent than Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, intelligent, and treated people with generosity and politeness.
Even from Ye Qingxian's discerning perspective, this girl was flawless.
If there was any flaw to be found.
It was that Shui Bing'er was somewhat of a homebody.
Aside from Lin Xiao, she hardly interacted with any other men, and even had very few female friends. Her main focus was entirely on cultivation.
She was too driven.
"I'll let Bing'er know first,"
"I'll tell everyone later. Let's hold a farewell banquet for Bing'er these past few days."
Hearing Lin Xiao's suggestion.
Ye Qingxian had no objections.
"Okay."
