A Visitor from Star Luo-The Duke's Mansion Butler, Uncle Fu
Even during this short break, Zhu Zhuqing didn't waste a single second. She began to review her experiences of the day, hoping to gain some lessons from them.
But when she recalled what Nami had told her that afternoon, she couldn't continue her thought process.
"Leave...?"
Looking behind them, at the foot of the mountain, there was a small village called Shrek Academy, which was actually just a dilapidated village.
Zhu Zhuqing pondered for a moment, her eyes flickering with uncertainty, as she vaguely recalled how she came to this Academy.
Images began to flash through her mind like a revolving lantern, and details she had previously forgotten gradually became clearer in her memory:
The lustful and cowardly Dai Mubai, disregarding his own safety, fled to Shrek Academy and indulged in a life of debauchery and debauchery. This is reminiscent of the scandalous stories about Dai Mubai that I heard before coming to Shrek...
Ma Hongjun, a womanizer, frequented brothels and brothels. Although he claimed it was because of his Martial Soul, his true nature remained the same.
Then there's Oscar, the guy who rushed up to fawn over Ning Rongrong as soon as she arrived. He claimed it was love at first sight, but it's hard not to think it's because of Ning Rongrong's background.
After all, as the saying goes, all love at first sight is just lust at first sight.
These were just the students; the teachers were even worse. Li Yusong was a rip-off at the registration fee, Zhao Wuji was impulsive and easily angered, Flender was greedy and stingy...
All teachers have some degree of personality flaws.
And that so-called school rule was even more incomprehensible to Zhu Zhuqing: those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre?
What school would teach students this kind of thing? Who would go out of their way to provoke someone? Aren't they afraid of messing with someone they can't afford to offend?
The key point is that Dai Mubai and his friends think these ridiculous school rules are normal, which is quite interesting. If Shrek Academy doesn't have the ability to distort people's minds, then it can only mean one thing: Dai Mubai and his two friends are abnormal to begin with.
And most importantly, this Academy has no way to make you stronger quickly; Flender's claim that he can help you become stronger is complete nonsense.
There wasn't even Mimicry Cultivation Environment in the Academy, so how could she possibly catch up with her sister and survive that brutal struggle?
The more Zhu Zhuqing recalled, the more she felt that this Academy was exactly as Nami had described.
At the same time, Zhu Zhuqing felt increasingly disappointed in her fiancé, Dai Mubai.
Although Dai Mubai abandoned her, she didn't blame him. After all, given the growing sense of despair and helplessness, Zhu Zhuqing Dai Mubai understand Dai Mubai's desire to escape. To be honest, she had also had that thought, but she hadn't succeeded.
However, after Dai Mubai escaped, instead of working hard to cultivate, he completely gave up and indulged his own behavior, which Zhu Zhuqing could not forgive.
Dai Mubai couldn't be unaware of the consequences of not diligently cultivating; the final result would not only be the loss of his own life, but also the life of Zhu Zhuqing.
But Dai Mubai still did it without hesitation, which made it hard for Zhu Zhuqing to forgive him. Dai Mubai simply didn't take her seriously at all.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes turned cold, and her heart became completely resolute.
"Then let's leave."
Having said that, Zhu Zhuqing's consistently decisive style made her decide not to waste any more time.
Having made up her mind to leave, Zhu Zhuqing immediately set off down the mountain to pack her things and leave the Academy.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhuqing noticed something was wrong with her surroundings when she was only halfway there.
Having been assassinated and trained in pursuit for many years, Zhu Zhuqing immediately became vigilant, cautiously looking around.
At the same time, three Spirit Ring gradually appeared behind Zhu Zhuqing, and her Soul Power surged, making her look like a cheetah poised to pounce, ready to attack at any moment.
A few seconds later, Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, sharp as lightning, suddenly swept towards a large tree not far away.
Although she couldn't see, her sixth sense, honed through years of life-or-death crises, gave her a vague feeling that someone was watching her.
"Who is it? Show yourself!!"
Snap snap snap...
A burst of applause suddenly rang out from behind the tree, and then a figure walked out from behind the tree.
"Third Miss, it's been a long time. I didn't expect your senses to be so sharp."
The figure clapped and praised, and walked towards Zhu Zhuqing with a big smile.
Swish swish swish —
Although the figure moved slowly, the speed was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, after leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, it arrived in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
"Uncle Fu... Uncle Fu?"
Looking at the old yet familiar figure before her, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes showed no joy, but rather a growing sense of despair.
She knew this person; in fact, it was quite difficult for her not to know him.
Uncle Fu, the head steward of the Nether Duke's Mansion, whose real name is unknown, has been called Uncle Fu since she was born. Over time, Zhu Zhuqing stopped asking Uncle Fu's name.
Moreover, as the chief steward of the Nether Duke's Mansion, Uncle Fu's strength is naturally unfathomable. According to some rumors, Uncle Fu's strength should have reached the level of Soul Douluo.
Such strength would be highly valued in any power, and if one were willing to submit to the royal family, it would even be enough to obtain the noble honor of a hereditary Earl.
Of course, none of these things matter. What matters is that Zhu Zhuqing remembers very clearly that before she left the Nether Duke's Mansion, this Uncle Fu had always maintained close ties with Zhu Zhuyun.
So, does that mean he's here now at Zhu Zhuyun's request to kill me?
Zhu Zhuqing never imagined she could fight against a Soul Douluo powerhouse, and despair inevitably crept into her heart.
It seems... I'm about to die?
Thoughts flashed like lightning, instantly sparking a brilliant idea. Zhu Zhuqing looked at the figure before her, her face pale, and gave a bitter smile before asking:
"Uncle Fu, are you here... to kill me?"
"No, no, no, I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you. I'm here to tell you some good news."
Upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Uncle Fu immediately waved his hands in fear and denied it repeatedly, as if afraid that Zhu Zhuqing would misunderstand. He then hurriedly explained his purpose.
"Good news? Is there really any good news for me?"
