[After everything was done, I had already become so old that I was barely recognizable. The wrinkles on my face rose like mountains, and I had become a dying man with only my final breath left before death.]
[Before my death, I told Shao Zhuang the location of the Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters, hoping he could eliminate this great hidden danger for the Douluo Continent!]
[In the end, Xi Shui's body and mine turned to dust and scattered between heaven and earth, bringing this life to an end.]
"Wow~ Xiao Zhuang became a Limit Douluo in the future! And it looks like he'll lead everyone to defeat that Evil Soul Master organization called the Holy Spirit Cult."
Tang Ya was utterly shocked as she watched the contents of the Heavenly Curtain.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Who could have imagined that the freshman she had encountered in the wilderness that morning would achieve something so outrageous in the future, growing to heights she did not even dare dream of?
It would be wonderful if I possessed such strength in the future too. Alongside her praise, Tang Ya felt even more envy and anxiety.
How wonderful would it be if her talent were as powerful as Shao Zhuang's?
It did not even need to be that good. Half as good would be enough.
Then, could she avenge her parents, rebuild the Tang Sect, and restore it to greatness?
"Our junior brother might even become a god in the future," Beibei added from beside her.
Beibei had no way of knowing the emotions Tang Ya kept hidden inside. Those were feelings she had buried in the deepest part of her heart and never displayed before outsiders.
Thus, Beibei was more astonished by Shao Zhuang's future accomplishments.
They were simply too dazzling—so dazzling that Soul Masters of their generation could barely open their eyes.
Within the Sea God Pavilion, Yan Shaozhe said excitedly, "Excellent! As expected of Teacher's Last Disciple. Such a young Limit Douluo—then ascending to godhood in the future is not impossible!"
Although Shrek Academy had once seen the Shrek Seven Devils ascend to godhood ten thousand years ago,
times had changed, and that matter was still far too remote for them.
So many Prodigies had become legendary Limit Douluos, but so what? None had ever glimpsed or reached the so-called realm of gods.
Yet now, Yan Shaozhe saw that possibility in Shao Zhuang.
After ten thousand years, if a new god were to emerge from Shrek Academy, what an immense honor that would be for Shrek Academy!
It could be said that the revelations concerning Shao Zhuang's future achievements from Long Xiaoyao's monologue on the Heavenly Curtain had completely stirred up enormous turmoil across the entire Douluo Continent.
Those who supported Shrek Academy were naturally delighted, while the hostile factions hated Shao Zhuang to the bone.
After all, if Shao Zhuang were truly allowed to grow, they would be in serious trouble.
Of course, among the countless factions and living beings, there were still some who did not care in the slightest about Shao Zhuang's future accomplishments.
For example, the protagonist of this Heavenly Curtain Monologue—Long Xiaoyao.
"What exactly is this so-called truth?!"
Long Xiaoyao was visibly agitated. He had not expected such a shocking twist to appear at the end of the monologue!
Why would his future self become so grief-stricken and pained after learning the truth?
At this moment, Long Xiaoyao's heart was filled with too many questions.
He seemed to have discovered certain clues!
No, I need to find Xi Shui!
Immediately afterward, Long Xiaoyao stopped dwelling on these matters.
They would only bring him more annoyance and distress.
Since there was another side to what had happened back then, and the truth was not what he understood it to be, he had to find Xi Shui and get a clear answer.
Having made his decision, Long Xiaoyao no longer hesitated.
Suspended in the air, he shot away at high speed with a whoosh, his destination being the Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters within the Evil Forest.
Most of the time, Xi Shui stayed at the Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters or at several other places he knew well.
After all, the Holy Spirit Cult had grown into something far beyond what it had been in those days.
Especially after Xi Shui stepped down from her position as Cult Leader, she no longer needed to personally handle everything as she had before.
"Where is Xi Shui?"
In Mingdu, Long Xiaoyao stared expressionlessly at Zhong Liwu as he questioned him.
If the other man dared tell a lie and deceive him, he would absolutely make him regret ever being born into this world.
Showing kindness to someone because of his affection for another? Such a thing did not exist for Long Xiaoyao.
It turned out that after searching all the places Xi Shui frequently stayed and failing to find her, Long Xiaoyao sensed that something was wrong and chose another approach.
He went to find Xi Shui's son, the current Cult Leader of the Holy Spirit Cult—Zhong Liwu.
In the end, he successfully caught him here in Mingdu.
"I don't know either. I came to Mingdu to search for Mother's whereabouts as well," Zhong Liwu answered honestly.
When facing Long Xiaoyao, Zhong Liwu possessed none of his usual domineering manner as Cult Leader.
After all, Long Xiaoyao's identity and strength were far too extraordinary.
"Hmph~" After his Spiritual Power detected no lie in the man's words, Long Xiaoyao did not waste another word and left directly.
In truth, Long Xiaoyao was already much calmer than he had been earlier.
He had searched so many places without seeing Xi Shui, and even her son Zhong Liwu knew nothing.
That meant Xi Shui was deliberately hiding from him.
Why?
Was she afraid he would press her about what the so-called truth actually was?
Xi Shui, where exactly are you now? Long Xiaoyao did not know what to do at this moment.
If Xi Shui was truly hiding from him on purpose, then he would have no way of finding her.
What exactly was that so-called truth?
Why did it make Xi Shui so afraid? Why did it make his future self so grief-stricken?
Long Xiaoyao's heart was filled with too many questions. He could only place his hopes on the Heavenly Curtain's upcoming revelations;
or on the opportunity granted by the Heavenly Curtain being the truth he most wanted to know.
Where was Ye Xishui at this moment?
She had hidden somewhere no one could find.
Just as Long Xiaoyao had guessed, she did not want him to find her and ask about that so-called truth.
At this moment, Ye Xishui had even begun to hate the Heavenly Curtain, hate it for bringing up this matter.
She hated that after mentioning it, the Heavenly Curtain had not simply revealed the truth to the world.
If it had been announced outright for the world to know, then for her, it would actually have been more of a release.
Yet the Heavenly Curtain had not done so. It had not directly unveiled that so-called truth, leaving Ye Xishui to suffer torment in this incomparably agonizing process.
What did it matter if Ye Xishui hid somewhere no one could find her?
It still could not change the fact that she was like a sinner awaiting final judgment!!
