The Female Lead Frankenstein Won't Dream of the Grilled-Fish Filial Son

"Your Excellency, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this statue?"

Ye Guyi couldn't help asking.

Su Tianxuan smiled.

"There's nothing wrong with the statue itself. It just shouldn't be here with this generation of the Shrek Seven Devils. What the hell makes Tang Wutong one of the Shrek Seven Devils?"

"Ah, what do you mean?"

Su Tianxuan glanced at the statue.

"You've both read the story of Huo Yuhao's generation, haven't you?"

Qian Renxue and Ye Guyi nodded.

There were many accounts of Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong's exploits online, and they were very famous.

The two had been classmates at Shrek and endured all sorts of hardships together. They had even faced separation through life and death in Qiankun Asking Love Valley before their love finally bore fruit.

Leaving their respective positions aside, it really was a touching love story.

"Before they went to Qiankun Asking Love Valley, that generation of the Shrek Seven Devils was actually the other six people plus Wang Dong'er. Of course, that remained true for a long time afterward.

"But when Wang Dong'er 'came back to life,' she became Tang Wutong."

Su Tianxuan said.

In his previous life, there had been much debate over whether Tang Wutong, Wang Dong'er, and Wang Qiu'er were really the same person.

But in his view, the three definitely weren't the same person. Since they had each developed an independent sense of self, they were necessarily separate individuals.

As for the one left at the end, he supposed she could be called a memory Frankenstein. He couldn't see any self in her at all.

Qian Renxue and Ye Guyi were a little dizzy listening to him. They thought it over for quite a while before asking:

"Do you mean Tang Wutong possessed Wang Dong'er's body?"

Wasn't this a love story? How had it suddenly turned into a horror story?

"Possession? That choice of word..."

Su Tianxuan's expression turned peculiar, and he could only explain further:

"According to some records, Wang Dong'er was the... person Tang Wutong became after her memories were sealed?

"As for whether she herself accepted that Tang Wutong was her, nobody could know, and nobody cared.

"After dying once, Tang Wutong awakened. Later, she absorbed Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er's memories. As for whether they really counted as one person, that's a matter of opinion. I don't accept it, anyway."

The Tang Sect and Shrek both had records concerning this matter, and it wasn't some taboo that couldn't be discussed.

It was just that not many people paid attention to it.

After all, the people involved had no objections, so why should anyone else stick their nose in?

And so, as the story spread among outsiders, the name Wang Dong'er had gradually been erased entirely.

For no other reason than that nobody cared.

"That's a little pitiful."

Ye Guyi offered a fairly apt assessment.

Su Tianxuan laughed it off.

"Who says? What if she accepted it herself? Heh, if you get the chance, ask her for me and see what she thinks."

When he'd discussed this with Leng Yaozhu before, the two of them had even argued over whether Wang Dong'er accepted that she was Tang Wutong.

Hopefully, Ye Guyi could get him an answer, so he could go show off in front of Leng Yaozhu.

Qian Renxue didn't care much about that. People from ten thousand years later couldn't affect her anyway. What she cared about was information on the Tang Sect.

She pointed at a mural of Tang San holding a teardrop in his hand, with dragons soaring and phoenixes dancing around him in a riot of colors, and asked:

"Your Excellency, could you tell me what this Hidden Weapon is?"

"Oh, Guanyin's Tear. Why did they paint it so gaudily?"

Su Tianxuan and Ye Guyi put the subject of Wang Dong'er out of their minds.

They had only been chatting about it casually. The matter had little to do with them in the first place.

But Beyond the Sky Screen, things were different.

In the Douluo II era.

Wang Dong listened silently to Su Tianxuan and the others' casual conversation.

Wang Dong'er was her real name.

As for Tang Wutong, just like her childhood memories, she had no recollection of it.

Could the pitiful Wang Dong'er they spoke of be her?

No, it can't be. My Martial Soul has nothing to do with dragons. Even if I get a title, it couldn't be Dragon Butterfly. It should be Heavenly Butterfly...

It's not me. It must be someone from the next generation. It's not me...

Wang Dong's hands trembled slightly. She could no longer calm down enough to think.

She bit her lower lip lightly and looked in the direction of the Clear Sky Sect.

She wanted to go home and ask her father for help.

Although she couldn't remember who her father was, everyone in the sect said he was a formidable person. He would surely be able to help her resolve this.

Sea God Pavilion.

"Tang Wutong... Wang Dong'er..."

Mu En murmured the two names, his brow slightly furrowed.

He knew that Wang Dong was a girl dressed as a boy. It seemed her real name should be Wang Dong'er.

And she could perform Martial Soul Fusion with Huo Yuhao, so she was probably the person they were talking about.

Memories... self...

Mu En's head ached a little.

His head had never been much good to begin with, and he'd made a complete mess of his own love life. Something that had reached the level of "Who am I?" was really a bit much for him.

He gave an order:

"Bring Wang Dong here. I want to talk to her."

Since it concerned Huo Yuhao, he had to deal with it even if he couldn't make sense of it.

Meanwhile, on Huo Yuhao's side.

Tian Meng and Huo Yuhao stared at the Sky Screen in confusion.

One was a thirteen-year-old child, and the other was a fat worm who did nothing but eat and sleep. Expecting them to understand what Su Tianxuan was talking about was far too difficult.

Fortunately, they also had the knowledgeable Electrolux with them.

Electrolux sighed.

"How pitiful."

"What's wrong? Isn't this just someone losing her memory and then getting it back?"

Tian Meng said.

After Electrolux had awakened yesterday, the three of them had talked all day and gained a general understanding of his situation and identity.

Tian Meng and Huo Yuhao were naturally shocked and full of admiration for an old man who had once reached god level.

However, Tian Meng still held a slight grudge against Electrolux for taking over his nest and threatening him.

So he had instinctively contradicted him.

"If this old man stuffed his memories into your head, you'd think you'd recovered your own memories too."

Electrolux shot back at him.

It wasn't as if he hadn't done such a thing before. Soul stitching was a classic technique in Necromancy.

And the matter of Tang Wutong and Wang Dong'er didn't look so simple.

Su Tianxuan had also mentioned someone called Wang Qiu'er. If it were simply a matter of losing and recovering memories, how could there be an extra person?

Still, he sighed.

"Ah, forget it. If she accepted it herself, no one else can say anything.

"What about you, Yuhao? What do you think? In that future, you and she are lovers."

Huo Yuhao scratched his head, somewhat at a loss.

"Well, Elder Yi, I don't know either. Right now, I just want to get stronger. I only want revenge."

Avoiding the question?

Ah, I hope you won't be like this in the future.

Electrolux sighed inwardly.

Tian Meng jumped in again.

"Yes, yes, yes! Getting stronger is important. Don't worry about all that. The important thing is to hurry and bring Bingbing back!"

"The Sky Screen has already exposed you two. Do you think you can still catch her?!"

Electrolux had been about to go back to sleep, but Tian Meng's words made him laugh in exasperation.

"Huh? Now that Bingbing knows she can become a god, shouldn't she come straight over and join us?"

Tian Meng was utterly baffled.

Ah.

Electrolux let out a heavy sigh.
