Spicy Spicy Pork, the Late Homeroom Teacher

After sending Jing Hongchen away, Lu Xueling put away the projection of Pulse Armor Crimson. Listening to the former's hurried footsteps fade into the distance, he stretched lazily, sat back down, and took a sip of the tea on the table.

"Human, do you find dealing with him troublesome, ding-ling?" Sirin leaned lightly against him. The faint concern in her eyes softened Lu Xueling's heart.

Gently wrapping an arm around Sirin's waist, Lu Xueling looked out the window. "A little, but you have to eat one bite at a time. Erosion has already begun making moves, so we can't just sit around and wait."

Bella finished clearing the table beside them and said seriously, "Is there anything you need me to do?"

Lu Xueling reached out with his left hand and stroked Little Bella Dragon's head. "Little Bella, I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious just yet. To tell you the truth, I already have a clear target."

Sirin and Bella spoke in unison. "Where?"

Lu Xueling simply said three words. "The Holy Spirit Cult."

He remembered this faction. The Sun Moon Empire called it the so-called state-protecting divine cult. Judging by the name alone, anyone unaware of the truth might think it was some righteous and glorious organization. In reality, every one of its members was an Evil Soul Master who killed without batting an eye.

Once he had the time, Lu Xueling would leave not even chickens or dogs alive!

With Sirin and Bella's strength, those ants were completely beneath notice. Lu Xueling was merely waiting—waiting for his Honkai God System to unlock the creation rights for another Herrscher. Then he could immediately wipe out that rotten place.

Since he had taken in Qian Renxue, he had to take responsibility for her. Of course, that also depended on Little Golden Mane's performance. As long as her loyalty exceeded 85%, Lu Xueling could grant her Herrscher Authority.

As for the mess involving Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, Lu Xueling had no kindness to spare for meddling in it. It would be better to make them all submit to Honkai directly.

By the time the Sun Moon Imperial Family realized what was happening, everything would already be set in stone.

And last but not least... ahem, the Honkai God Simulation System actually had another function: appearance changes. In short, a skin system.

Just imagining Sirin freely switching between the appearance of a purple-haired girl, the White-Haired Queen, and the Spring Spirit made an infatuated smile creep onto Lu Xueling's face.

The moment Sirin saw that expression, she immediately understood that this human was probably thinking about something lewd again.

"Hey, hey, hey, Sirin... Your Majesty... gentler—"

The twisting pain at his waist interrupted Lu Xueling's pleasant fantasy. Sirin's face flushed slightly as she let go, glaring at him reproachfully. "Human, were you thinking about doing that with me again... Hey, you!!"

Who would have thought that the moment the Queen released him, her unruly servant would pounce back? The wide sofa was enough for two people to lie on their sides. Lu Xueling pinned Sirin's hands and lowered his head to touch her forehead.

Seeing that things were going wrong, Bella hurriedly escaped after finishing the last half cup of her drink. She even locked the doors and windows for Her Majesty and her servant on the way out.

"Bella..." The Herrscher's outstretched hand fell weakly. When she turned back, she found that her Honkai God already looked unable to wait any longer.

"Yes, my Queen. I was just thinking about doing ■■ with you~" Lu Xueling openly stated his true thoughts.

Once again, the Queen was about to be overstepped by her servant.

Lu Xueling had already decided on dinner for today. He would make his favorite dish: Spicy Spicy Pork!

There was a significant time difference between the Sun Moon Empire and Shrek City. Night was gradually falling here, while the blazing sun was rising over there.

Classes at Shrek Academy began again, but this time, the homeroom teacher of Freshman Class One had not arrived early as usual.

This not only surprised Mu Jin, the homeroom teacher of Class Nine, who always arrived right on time, but also left the students of Freshman Class One feeling uneasy.

"Why hasn't Teacher Zhou arrived yet?"

"Hey... do you think Teacher Zhou is still angry about what happened yesterday, so..."

"Why are you overthinking it? Isn't it good if Teacher Zhou is late? Don't you two know her temper? You're lucky she didn't catch you being late!"

"Uh..."

The noisy Freshman Class One eventually drew the attention of the nearby Discipline Office. What was going on with Zhou Yi today? Could last night's blow really have affected her that badly? Surely not?

Du Weilun stood at the entrance of the Discipline Office, lost in thought.

"Director, there's been no news from Teacher Fan Yu's side either." Another voice reported from inside the office.

This made Du Weilun's brow furrow even more deeply. The husband and wife had both vanished without a word. His instincts as a Soul Master told him that something had most likely happened!!

"...How about this? I'll substitute for Freshman Class One. You all go find Zhou—"

Whoosh—!

"Director Du, sorry I'm late."

Before Du Weilun could finish his last word, Zhou Yi appeared in front of him and bowed to express her apology.

"Yi."

Du Weilun barely finished the word before his eyes turned somewhat startled. "Teacher Zhou, when did you get here? I didn't even..."

How could a six-ringed Soul Emperor possibly hide from an eight-ringed Soul Douluo's spiritual perception? Du Weilun had kept his attention focused on the floors of the teaching building, yet Zhou Yi's appearance had come without any warning.

Could Zhou Yi have flown up? But she was not a Titled Douluo.

"Sorry, Director Du. This was my fault today. Please mark it down once. I'll go teach the children first." Zhou Yi bowed to Director Du once more, then quickly carried her teaching materials toward Freshman Class One's classroom.

Du Weilun watched Zhou Yi enter the classroom and sighed softly. He did not think much more about it. After crossing out Zhou Yi's perfect attendance according to the rules, he closed the door to the Discipline Office.

Inside the Discipline Office, the black-clothed teacher who had just reported to him adjusted his glasses and asked, "Teacher Zhou came?"

Du Weilun nodded faintly. "Ten minutes late. Honestly, it doesn't seem like her. Oh, right, Wang Yan, on Fan Yu's side..."

Wang Yan gave him a reassuring look. "The Soul Tool Department informed me. Fan Yu only just arrived as well. Strange. Those two were actually late at the same time today."

Du Weilun's mouth twitched. "Yes, and Teacher Wang, you don't know this, but I just noticed that Zhou Yi seemed to have dyed her hair today. Blue, that kind of color."

Wang Yan froze instantly. "What? She dyed her hair too?"

"Too?"

Du Weilun caught the key point in Wang Yan's words.

Wang Yan scratched his head, his expression turning somewhat strange. "The Soul Tool Department reported that Teacher Fan Yu dyed his hair today too, and it was blue as well."

Could this really just be a coincidence?

At noon, on the main road leading to Shrek Academy's cafeteria, many teachers and students paid no particular attention to a streetlamp bearing obvious signs of damage...
