Huo Gua's Massive Shura Field
Shrek Academy.
A girl with long, golden hair strolled leisurely along the campus path of the Outer Court Department. The students she occasionally encountered would greet her politely, saying, "Hello, Teacher Wang."
That's right, this girl is Wang Qiu'er, who has been back at the Shrek Academy for almost two months.
After being brought back to the academy by Zhou Huan, Wang Qiu'er saw that her former teammates Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, and the Lan sisters, had all become teachers in the Outer Court. With nothing else to do, she thought she could take their place.
Therefore, at Xuanzi's instruction, a new course, "Soul Beast Survival Studies," was specially opened for the first-year students, with Wang Qiu'er serving as the teacher for this subject.
Unexpectedly, this Little Soul beast taught with the demeanor of a master teacher. Coupled with her stunning looks and the fact that she had lost her previous aloof and unsociable personality, she quickly gained the favor of a large number of students.
This pleased the Little Soul beast.
So, the Little Soul beast has been having a pretty good time lately, and it even walks with a bit of a swagger.
After class today, the Little Soul beast, who was in a good mood, was walking on the school path as usual when a boy and a girl walked towards him, holding hands.
Couples are normal in Shrek; it's nothing unusual.
But the crucial point is, by sheer bad luck, the couple holding hands is none other than Huo Gua and Tang Wutong, who have just returned from the Mingdou Battlefield.
Showing off your love in front of her, huh? This is outrageous!
Wang Qiu'er was immediately furious, but instead of throwing a tantrum, she walked up to Huo Gua, grabbed him, and completely ignored Tang Wutong, saying affectionately, "Yu Hao, you're back."
Yes, her tone was just like a wife seeing her husband return home.
Of course, Wang Qiu'er didn't hold onto Huo Gua the whole time; she just separated him from Tang Wutong. After all, as a teacher, it would damage her image to be seen pulling and tugging at each other on campus.
Since their awkward reunion due to Zhou Huan's blunder, Wang Qiu'er hasn't seen Huo Gua again, because Huo Gua went to the Mingdou Battlefield the very next day.
As for Tang Wutong, Wang Qiu'er was unaware that she was spying, so the two hadn't actually met since her partial resurrection.
Under these circumstances, Wang Qiu'er naturally couldn't bear to see her man being led by another woman, swaggering in front of her.
The old Wang Qiu'er would never have bothered to do such a thing, but the current Wang Qiu'er no longer has that awkward personality. If someone is hers, of course she will take action to snatch them back.
This is the style of Imperial Auspicious Beast.
Moreover, Xiao Xiao had taught her that the best way to deal with a love rival was not to fight, not to make sarcastic remarks, and certainly not to resort to shrewish insults, but simply to ignore her and hold onto her own man firmly.
Of course, this is all on the premise that the man loves you; otherwise, nothing he says or does will make a difference.
It's obvious that Huo Yuhao couldn't possibly not have her in his heart.
Therefore, when Wang Qiu'er encountered this situation, she naturally didn't hesitate and took action when the time was right.
When Tang Wutong saw Huo Gua being pulled away by Wang Qiu'er, her face immediately darkened, but she couldn't lose her temper.
Because in Tang Wutong's subconscious, or rather in Wang Dong'er's memory, she felt indebted to Wang Qiu'er.
But given her proud nature, how could a princess of the Divine Realm possibly tolerate her man being treated like a husband by another daughter?
I'm angry, conflicted, frustrated, and helpless.
So she could only clench her fists tightly, unable to throw a punch.
Of course, if Tang Wutong was angry at this moment, then Huo Gua's heart was in his throat. This was a huge, blatant Asura.
In fact, given his mental perception, it would have been impossible for him not to have noticed Wang Qiu'er was right in front of him under normal circumstances.
But the truth is, he really didn't notice.
But now is not the time to explore this issue, because Asura scene is unfolding before our eyes, and we have no choice but to confront it.
Huo Gua has always had an indecisive side to his personality. He has always thought that he should appease both sides first, and then lay his cards on the table when the time is right.
As for when the time will be right, well... let's wait a little longer; the time will eventually come.
He won't give up on anyone anyway.
On the point of "wanting it all," Huo Gua made a very decisive decision.
But today's unexpected encounter was quite "bloody," well, quite "bloody" for him.
Faced with Wang Qiu'er's unprecedentedly gentle tone, and Tang Wutong's face as black as an iron pot, Huo Gua felt extremely troubled, especially since those guys in his Sea of Consciousness were still standing there talking without any sense of responsibility.
"My disciple, you're quite the ladies' man! These two could almost be mistaken for twins, haha."
"Yu Hao, Brother Sky Dream admires you the most for this, you're so lucky to have two women in your life."
"Hmph! You dog of a man!" Ice Empress said coldly.
"Oh, does Brother Yu Hao have two wives?" The unfamiliar yet melodious girlish voice belonged to Mermaid Princess Liya, Huo Gua's greatest gain in the Ice Sea.
The chaotic sounds from within the Sea of Consciousness only added to Huo Gua's headache, so he simply blocked out the voices of Elder Yi and the others.
The Sea of Consciousness can shield you, but the battlefield of Asura still has to be faced... Wait a minute!
Bite!
Who said that of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, running away is the best?
Thinking of this, Huo Gua's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, "I'm so clever! Why did I have to deal with Asura mess in front of both of them? I can coax them one by one afterwards. Anyway, they can't run away. They can run away from monks... ptooey, they can run away from their wives, but can they run away from their parents' home?"
Dong'er can only return to the Clear Sky Sect at most now, and probably can't return to the Divine Realm as quickly; Qiu'er can only go to the Star Dou Great Forest besides Shrek.
That's right, that's exactly it.
After a brief 0.03 seconds of awkward silence and headache, Huo Gua finally came up with a "clever" solution and said with an embarrassed smile, "Um, Qiu'er, it's so good to see you. Well, Mu En is calling me, so I'll go to Sea God Island first. You two can chat for a while."
Before Tang Wutong and Wang Qiu'er could react, Huo Gua flew towards Sea God Island in a flash.
From that fleeting streak of light, it was clear that Huo Gua had used up all his primordial power to move at that moment.
Tang Wutong and Wang Qiu'er were both stunned upon seeing this, and cursed in unison, "That bastard, he's quick on his feet!"
Then, the two looked at each other again, but there was no spark between them, just a moment of silence.
Tang Wutong's expression was complicated, but she spoke first, "Qiu'er, it's good that you're alive. Also, I'm sorry."
She was sincere. No matter what, Wang Qiu'er saved Huo Yuhao back then, and she was in the wrong. Wang Qiu'er was the most innocent one.
Wang Qiu'er did not accept Tang Wutong's apology, but said, "You don't need to apologize. I was willing to Sacrifice myself for Yu Hao, and I know that very well. As for the matter of the soul, that's not your fault either."
Upon hearing this, Tang Wutong took a deep breath and said, "Thank you."
Wang Qiu'er shook her head again. "Then there's even less need, because I won't give up on Yu Hao either. In Qiankun Love-Seeking Valley, Dong'er died once for Yu Hao, and Risheng City, I also Sacrifice for Yu Hao; so, we're even with Dong'er. But, you are not Dong'er."
You are not Dong'er.
Tang Wutong had heard this sentence more than once.
Wang Dong'er is her, but she is definitely not Wang Dong'er.
Tang Wutong was silent for a moment, then, as if she had thought of something, she suddenly said, "I understand. Please take good care of Yu Hao for now."
Before Wang Qiu'er could ask any more questions, Tang Wutong flew out of Shrek as a streak of light, heading north towards Haotian Fort.
Wang Qiu'er muttered, puzzled, "Is this woman out of her mind? She's acting so strangely."
Actually, Wang Qiu'er didn't hate Tang Wutong, because according to Zhou Huan, this girl was also a victim.
Of course, it's impossible for Wang Qiu'er to have a good attitude towards Tang San's daughter.
