Ring Granny

The sky was no longer filled with booming and exploding sounds.

The Shrek City Guard and the academy's teachers, in the brief moment the commotion subsided, also threw themselves into clearing the rubble and tallying the casualties.

On the city wall, Xuan Zi, who already looked like an old Delia, now looked even older, as if he had aged more than ten years. He stared blankly at the collapsed Shrek City before him.

A short while later, Elder Lin descended from the sky and landed beside Xuan Zi.

He raised his hand and patted Xuan Zi on the shoulder. "Alright, the statistics are in. It seems those two from the Clear Sky Sect are intentionally controlling the situation. Although there are countless injured, no deaths have been reported yet."

"Someone has died..." Xuan Zi lowered his head, his old eyes filled with tears.

"Who?"

"Huo Yuhao's mother, Huo Yun'er!"

"So, they stormed into Shrek in such a grand manner just to kill an ordinary person?"

Elder Lin's expression was somewhat strange.

As a support-type Soul Master, Jade Ruyi was busy buffing the other elders, and Da Ming Er Ming didn't have the awareness to target the back row, so she was not injured.

However, almost all the other elders and teachers were injured. If it weren't for Elder Zhuang treating them from the rear, there would have been many more Soul Masters with broken arms and legs this time.

Just to kill Huo Yun'er?

"Huo Yun'er is different!" Xuan Zi's face furrowed. "Before Mu En left, he specifically instructed me to protect Huo Yun'er well..."

Lin Huiqun: You're really a simpleton.

Protection can also be described as surveillance!

Because of Shen Yichen, although Lin Huiqun only had a superficial understanding of most things, she could tell that Mu En regarded Huo Yun'er and her son as trouble.

Am I really a useless person?

Lin Huiqun: "..."

How am I supposed to respond to that?

"I've made up my mind. When Mu En returns, I will go and apologize with a bundle of thorns on my back! I will do whatever Mu En asks me to do!"

Lin Huiqun: "... Okay?"

Inside the courtyard, Huo Yuhao was placed on a flat spot.

Wang Dong knelt before Huo Yuhao with his legs spread wide like a duck, his feelings complicated.

Just now, Shrek's teacher treated Yuhao. Yuhao should wake up soon...

But Aunt Huo...

Wang Dong sighed. She knew the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape.

Although she had just descended to the mortal realm and her memories were incomplete, and she wasn't very familiar with Da Ming Er Ming, she knew that these two treated her extremely well.

One is your only friend, the other is your family.

She also experienced the same dilemma that Tang San faced.

Huo Yun'er was also caught in a dilemma.

[Du Busi: The noise in Shrek City has subsided. Huo Yun'er, where are you? Are you still alive?]

[Huo Yun'er: I shouldn't be considered alive, Sect Master.]

Besides a defensive card, she has another trump card: a life-saving card!

After death, the soul is immortal and resides in the nearest intelligent spiritual Sea of Consciousness...

She was unsure whether to reveal this information.

Before she died, the person closest to her was Yuhao!

--

Inside the stronghold of the Heavenly Dragon Sect in Heaven Dou City.

"Tell me, what happened in the diary?"

Because of the cover provided by Di Tian, Mu En no longer held back in his speech.

Pulled out of bed by the teacher, Shen Yichen looked innocent and spread his hands, "Nothing, it's just that Huo Yun'er seems to be dead."

"Um?"

"Those two Soul Beasts attacked Shrek City and killed Huo Yun'er."

"Ah?"

Mu En's mind raced. "Then, what about the other casualties at Shrek?"

"I'm not sure, but... it shouldn't be anything serious? But it seems like a lot of the buildings have collapsed..."

"That's good." Mu En wasn't really concerned about whether Huo Yun'er lived or died.

"The problem now is that Huo Yun'er is still sending messages in the group chat after she died."

"What?!"

Not to mention Mu En was confused, Shen Yichen was also completely baffled.

Whether it's Du Busi or Huo Yun'er, they're both really hard to kill.

If Tang God King knew that he had caused such a commotion and Huo Yun'er was still alive, wouldn't he be furious?

The group chat is asking why.

Shen Yichen had just explained something to Mu En when he casually joined in the teasing in the group chat.

[The Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Yeah, tell me. What do you mean by not being considered alive?]

[Black Dragon: Right, surely Tang God King couldn't have gone easy on him, could he?]

[Huo Yun'er: This...]

[The Great Sage Equal to Heaven: Oh ho, you dare to have little secrets? You're really not afraid of being bullied? Have you ever seen a fist the size of a sandbag? If you don't tell me, I'll go find someone to beat up Huo Yuhao!]

[Huo Yun'er: Ah? Your Excellency, isn't what you're doing a bit unethical?]

[The Great Sage Equal to Heaven: So what?]

[Soul Engineer: To be fair, we all have some reservations about Tang God King right now, so we're all in the same boat. But if anyone starts to have second thoughts, then the team will be difficult to lead.]

[Soul Engineer: Do you really want to see the group fall apart, only for Tang God King to ultimately benefit from the chaos?]

Seemingly to increase the persuasiveness of his 'fair words,' Jing Hongchen even deliberately mentioned the phrase 'Du Busi.'

[Soul Engineer: Sect Master Du, tell me, am I right?]

[Du Busi: That makes some sense. Huo Yun'er, hiding isn't a good thing, just tell her.]

Jing Hongchen used this as an excuse to pressure Huo Yun'er from a moral high ground.

But the Du Busi... he was genuinely terrified.

Now that things have come to this, if Huo Yun'er really had a backup plan, she could simply pack up and join Tang San. Even if Huo Yuhao becomes a lackey, he'll still be a lackey who has attained a God Position.

Their family was all so harmonious and happy, while he himself was the real clown.

Du Busi understood this perfectly from the very beginning.

But who can blame them when the Body Sect claims that Body Martial Soul are one family?

From the moment Huo Yun'er brought Huo Yuhao to the Body Sect, he only had one choice left...

[Huo Yun'er: Since the Sect Master has said so, then I won't hide it from everyone.]

Shen Yichen added in his mind, "Probably because it can't be hidden anymore."

[Huo Yun'er: During my previous check-in, I obtained a special card that allows me to retain my soul after death, parasitizing the nearest living being...]

[Great Sage Equal to Heaven: WC?! So, you're hidden in Huo Yuhao's head?!]

After the old man with the ring, Huo Yuhao now has an old woman with a ring?

[Huo Yun'er: Yes.]

[The Great Sage Equal to Heaven: So isn't this a blessing in disguise?]

[Black Dragon: Great Sage, what makes you say that?]

[The Great Sage Equal to Heaven: From Tang San's perspective, Huo Yun'er is already dead. However, she entered Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness, and many things that couldn't be said openly before can now be told to Huo Yuhao in secret.]

[Huo Yun'er: Looking at it this way, what the Great Sage said isn't wrong.]

[Little Nobody: So, in your current state, can you still get rewards for Current Affairs Review?]

[Huo Yun'er: This... I haven't tried it, so I don't know. But the time for the Current Affairs Review is in a couple of days, then we can try to see if it works.]
