Xiao Wu's Longing, Leaving Star Dou [4K]

"Rongrong, Wulin and I brought you some food."

What do you want to tell me?

Zhu Zhuqing followed her into the living room, first placing the snacks she had bought on the table, and then sitting down on the sofa with her, a hint of curiosity on her face.

"Zhu Zhuqing."

"What I really want to talk about is Brother Tang."

"This might hurt your feelings, but..."

"I will not give up."

Ning Rongrong sat down beside her, staring straight at her, pursed her lips, but still spoke frankly.

"..."

Upon hearing the key point, Zhu Zhuqing's originally beautiful expression froze, turning considerably colder.

She hadn't expected that her sisters still couldn't put away their feelings.

"Rongrong, let me make this clear beforehand. No matter how good our relationship is, I will never want to become true sisters with you."

"It's enough that I'm by Wulin's side."

She quickly came to her senses, looked at the person in front of her, and spoke frankly.

"Zhu Zhuqing, perhaps saying this will hurt you, but what I want to tell you is..."

"Someone like Brother Tang is definitely not someone you can handle alone. Even if it weren't me, you would meet many, many girls..."

Ning Rongrong was not surprised by this. She stared at the person in front of her and said, word by word.

"I..."

I don't understand what you mean.

Zhu Zhuqing's expression froze for a moment, and she subconsciously frowned. She looked at the person in front of her and quickly said.

Even if it wasn't Rongrong...

There will be other people too!?

"Brother Tang is the Spirit Hall Holy Son, the most talented person in this era, even in all of history, the brightest star, and the people he attracts are not just you and me."

"The Spirit Hall's chosen one, the granddaughter of Titled Douluo like Senior Dugu Bo, and even geniuses from various forces..."

"So, do you understand what I mean?"

Ning Rongrong blinked and said slowly.

"I..."

Zhu Zhuqing fell silent, unable to say anything for a moment.

"I know Zhu Zhuqing can't accept this right away, and I understand that, but I'll make things clear to you."

"I will not give up on Brother Tang, and I will become true sisters with Zhu Zhuqing..."

"That's all I wanted to say, Zhu Zhuqing."

With a smile on her face, Ning Rongrong blurted out everything she wanted to say, waiting for the other person's reaction.

"I see."

"Rongrong, you eat first, I'm going back now."

Zhu Zhuqing struggled to regain her senses, looked at her earnest best friend, pursed her lips with some difficulty, and nodded.

Although she didn't want to agree with what Rongrong said at all, what Rongrong said was true!

"Okay, I'll see you off..."

After that, she didn't stay there long. With Ning Rongrong seeing her off, she quickly returned to her room next door and finally sat on the bed in her bedroom.

"Rongrong still likes Wulin after all, and what she said..."

Zhu Zhuqing sat on the bed, a bitter look on her beautiful face, and murmured to herself.

She wasn't some naive girl; she knew what Rongrong meant from the beginning, especially after the other party explained it so clearly.

Wulin will definitely attract many, many people, not just her and Rongrong! You know, even back in the Shrek Academy, there were three people who had feelings for Wulin: her, Rongrong, and Xiao Wu.

This isn't just three people; there are only three girls in the entire Shrek Academy!

If there's a fourth one, wouldn't that make four? Thinking of this, her already reserved face fell even more silently.

No, you can't think about these things.

Zhu Zhuqing tried to clear her mind of all thoughts, attempting to calm herself, but she couldn't. Rongrong's words kept replaying wildly in her head...

"Let's Meditation instead."

In the end, Zhu Zhuqing could only shake her head, sit on the bed, and try to calm herself down by cultivating.

Among those who are interested in Wulin, there must be many exceptionally talented geniuses. Even if she doesn't know what kind of geniuses they are, they must be much stronger than herself.

Improving one's cultivation level is ultimately the most important thing!

"..."

"Rongrong, are you really sure?"

On the other side, seeing Ning Rongrong eating the food Zhu Zhuqing brought in the living room, Gu Rong walked over and asked softly.

"Hmm? Grandpa Bone, you're here. Do you want some?"

Upon seeing the visitor, Ning Rongrong put down her chopsticks, picked up a skewer of grilled squid, and politely asked...

"Rongrong, Grandpa doesn't want to eat."

"But... are you really sure about this?"

Hearing this, Gu Rong was also taken aback, then sighed and couldn't help but ask...?

"You've made up your mind."

"I already told Grandpa Bone that I would never give up, I want to pursue my own happiness..."

Ning Rongrong chuckled and said frankly.

She knew what Grandpa Bone was worried about—that he felt a little wronged by her being with other women and Brother Tang —but she didn't think so.

Being with him is something she already likes.

"Anyway, when it comes to someone I like..."

"I will never give up."

As Ning Rongrong spoke, the image of Xiao Wu also came to mind.

"Like when I was at Shrek, I had a classmate named Xiao Wu, who was also a very good friend. She knew Brother Tang before he accelerated the Spirit Hall's rise, but..."

"She simply didn't recognize her feelings for him."

At this point, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but feel a little emotional. It was clear from the other person's every move that they were interested in her!

"Besides, she didn't come with us afterwards, and we'll never have the chance to see her again."

This relationship has come to an end.

She said with a soft chuckle.

At the same time.

"..."

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.

Here, towering trees reach into the clouds, and countless vibrant flowers and plants abound, making it seem like nature's finest masterpiece.

Such a beautiful and peaceful environment is a place that anyone would love.

However, this seemingly beautiful environment is also the most dangerous place in the entire Douluo Continent. Few human powerhouses dare to linger here, simply because this is the largest gathering place for Soul Beasts, deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.

Upon reaching the inner circle of the Star Dou Great Forest, one would find countless traces of powerful Soul Beasts, some as old as 80,000 or 90,000 years old, or even 100,000 years old, not to mention the core area.

Beneath its beautiful and peaceful exterior, countless top-tier Soul Beasts gather here...

"..."

Around the Lake of Life, on an ancient tree that has stood for thousands of years, a girl with scorpion braids is sitting in the tree.

Gazing towards the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, she appeared deep in thought, lost in thought.

This girl was none other than Xiao Wu, the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit who had returned from Suotuo City and been taken from the outer circle to the inner circle by her younger brother Titan Giant Ape Er Ming Xiao Wu.

And to the side, there were two enormous Soul Beasts.

The former was a gigantic Titan Giant Ape, as large as a mountain, with its arms touching the ground, silently accompanying him, its large eyes filled with contemplation.

The other one was also a top-tier Soul Beast of enormous size, with a strange appearance of a snake's body and a bull's head; it was the Sky Azure Bull Python.

These two are Xiao Wu's two younger brothers, Er Ming and Da Ming, and they are also top-tier Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest of this era, both of whom have reached the level of over 100,000 years.

"Sister Xiao Wu, what's been going on with you these past few days? You seem to be in a bad mood."

Beside her, the Sky Azure Bull Python Da Ming looked at her and couldn't help but ask a question. More perceptive than his Er Ming, he could undoubtedly see the change in his sister's mood.

"That's right, that's right."

"Sister Xiao Wu, you haven't been back for so long. Shouldn't you be happily staying in the forest?"

Titan Giant Ape Er Ming couldn't help but say the same thing.

"It's been too long since I've been back to the Star Dou Great Forest."

"I'm not used to it yet."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu smiled slightly, snapped out of her daze, and shook her head.

"And it feels..."

"I shouldn't have come back."

Her gaze drifted to the outer edge of the circle, her eyes filled with an indescribable complexity, and she murmured to herself.

She shouldn't have come back, not only because she wasn't used to living in the Star Dou Great Forest as she used to, but also because she wasn't used to...

I finally got to see him after so many years, but I lost him so easily again. I can't even get in touch with him.

Thinking of this, a sense of loss filled her beautiful eyes. At this time, Wulin Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing must have settled down in Heaven Dou City.

I wonder if Wulin and the others are alright?

But when I think of them...

Xiao Wu's face grew increasingly pale, because she had dreamt of Wulin last night. Not only that, in her dream, he was already married and had children...

As for his wife, it turns out to be Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing!

Although she had considered that they might be interested in Wulin, Xiao Wu still couldn't help feeling restless after having that dream, even though it was just a dream.

"Sister Xiao Wu, do you not only want to go back to the human world, but also miss your friends outside?"

At this moment, Da Ming asked subconsciously.

"Yes."

I miss them...

Xiao Wu nodded subconsciously. She'd read in a book that you dream about things you think about during the day, so she was definitely thinking about Wulin. As for Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing...

She really would rather not think about it!

"That's true, but given your condition, you still can't go back outside."

Da Ming thought to himself, "Just as I thought," but he was extremely cautious and spoke aloud.

"Right, right! Sister Xiao Wu, you just got back, you can't go out again, just like you said before..."

"You've already encountered Titled Douluo expert."

Upon hearing this, the Titan Giant Ape Er Ming, standing beside him, quickly added, his tone exceptionally excited.

Encountering Titled Douluo powerhouse, if he hadn't been lucky enough to escape, otherwise...

They probably will never see each other again in this lifetime.

After all, there have never been many powerful humans outside, as evidenced by the fact that the other party met three of them at once.

"Er Ming is right."

Da Ming couldn't help but sigh.

Sister Xiao Wu is truly lucky; she was seen by Titled Douluo, which is fatal to a transformed Soul Beast, practically guaranteeing its death!

"I know..."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu nodded dejectedly. She knew that even if she wanted to go back, she couldn't.

After all, Titled Douluo wouldn't be blind forever, and she dared not imagine that she would remain undetected indefinitely.

She can only return to the human world by slowly breaking through to maturity and fully transforming into human form. Otherwise, she will have to live in fear every day, and she doesn't want that.

If only there were a way...

"So, Sister Xiao Wu can't go out. Even if she wants to go to the human world, she can only go out occasionally, like in Nuoding City where you used to stay."

"Before truly becoming human, one shouldn't easily go to large cities, like the Heaven Dou City you mentioned."

"Having Titled Douluo involved is far too dangerous..."

Beside them, the Sky Azure Bull Python Da Ming continued speaking, his bull-headed expression serious, but Xiao Wu, standing beside him, paused thoughtfully upon hearing this.

"Da Ming is wrong. Going to human cities is dangerous enough. If we can avoid it, Sister Xiao Wu should not go."

Er Ming, however, opposed this view.

The human world is too dangerous. Sister Xiao Wu should stay in the Star Dou Great Forest. At least he, as her younger brother, can protect her and even pick bananas for her to eat.

"No, Da Ming is right."

"I... can go back to Nuoding City first!"

However, at this moment, a glint of light flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes, and she instantly had her own idea, saying expectantly.

Big cities are dangerous, so she simply won't go to big cities!

"Other cities are dangerous, but Nuoding City is definitely not dangerous at all. I've lived here for six years and I'm still fine. In this city, even Soul Elder are among the best..."

"I can find a small village in Nuoding City and live a good life there until I become Soul Emperor."

Xiao Wu's face was full of emotion as she muttered to herself.

Having become accustomed to life in human cities, it's incredibly difficult for her to not be able to enjoy delicious food.

Even small cities have their own Spirit Halls. She receives one hundred Gold Soul Coins from the Spirit Hall every month, and besides, Nuoding City is where Wulin grew up...

You might run into them again!

"Sister Xiao Wu, you..."

Upon hearing her words, Da Ming and Er Ming, who were standing nearby, were both stunned and deep in thought.

Them...

Wasn't the intention to persuade the other person not to go?

"I've made up my mind."

"I'm leaving Star Dou first thing tomorrow morning."

Xiao Wu took out a few Gold Soul Coins from her small purse, her face beaming with a smile that made her eyes crinkle into crescent moons.

Hehe, luckily she left those Gold Soul Coins behind, otherwise, she probably wouldn't even have had the money for the return trip!

"..."

"Sister Xiao Wu, why don't you reconsider?"

At this moment, Da Ming Er Ming spoke up one after another.

"Um?"

"Then... I'll leave today?"

Xiao Wu blinked and couldn't help but mutter, "Although it's still dark, it's not impossible!"

"..."

"No, no, Sister Xiao Wu, you shouldn't consider it. Let's do it tomorrow morning. I'll have Er Ming escort you out of the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Yes, yes, I'll give it to you, Sister Xiao Wu."

At this moment, Da Ming Er Ming were at their wits' end, their faces showing helplessness as they spoke frankly.

"Hehe, that's more like it."

"Then I'll start cultivating now, and tomorrow morning..."

"I'll start afresh!"

Xiao Wu's face lit up with excitement, and she said expectantly, "Starting tomorrow, it will be the first day I want to see Wulin..."

I wonder when I'll be able to see each other again!

"..."

P. S.: Hehe, to be continued...
