While the ladies were busy meticulously selecting immortal herbs, Wu Xing had already stepped out of the Chat Group.
Having been in the Douluo Continent for the better part of a day, he had spent all his time chatting and bantering, never once properly exploring any of the cities in this world.
Fortunately, there was a small city not far from where he had transmigrated. After entering and asking a random passerby, he realized, as luck would have it, that it was Nuoding City.
Wu Xing's eyes lit up instantly, and his interest was piqued.
Based on the information he had gathered from the Chat Group, there was less than a year left until the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, and the Blue Tyrant Academy had just been renamed Shrek Academy.
As a veteran viewer who had seen the original novel and anime, he naturally knew that Tang Hao was not around here, which meant his opportunity had arrived.
He would first find Ah Yin, take her by his side, conduct some thorough "secret room education" to cultivate their relationship, and then set off for Heaven Dou City.
Having made up his mind, Wu Xing did not linger in Nuoding City; with a wave of his hand, a detailed map of the surrounding area appeared in his grasp.
He scanned the map, identified his direction, and headed toward Holy Soul Village at top speed.
Now possessing the strength of a level 39 Soul Elder, combined with physical attributes far exceeding those of an ordinary person, his speed was such that even an agility-type Spirit Emperor might not necessarily be faster than him.
After about a quarter of an hour, he arrived at a waterfall behind the mountains of Holy Soul Village.
Wu Xing did not immediately enter the cave behind the waterfall; instead, he unleashed his second martial soul and began an all-encompassing search and sweep.
Although he knew it was unlikely for Tang Hao to appear here during this period, there was no harm in being cautious.
After a thorough investigation revealed no traces of the man, he retracted his second martial soul and slipped into the cave.
At the same time, as Wu Xing snuck into the cave, Ah Yin also sensed the strange aura intruding from outside.
Since joining the Chat Group, her true form had undergone significant changes, and her sensory abilities had been greatly enhanced.
When Wu Xing approached her true form, Ah Yin felt a sense of disbelief; the attire and appearance of the person who had arrived were exactly those of the Group Master from the Chat Group.
The Group Master had come to find her?
Was it because of those screenshots she had taken in the Chat Group?
Was he here now to take revenge on her in a secret room?
Ah Yin's mind raced with thoughts, leaving her nervous and flustered. She was still just a blade of grass, after all; she couldn't be "shaken," and certainly couldn't be "grassed."
Watching the Blue Silver Empress with its stems swaying incessantly and its leaves dancing in chaos, a playful glint appeared on Wu Xing's face.
"Fellow group member Ah Yin, I didn't expect us to meet so soon."
Hearing Wu Xing's words, Ah Yin swayed even more frequently; it was confirmed, the person really was the Group Master.
"Don't be afraid. I'm not a good person—wait, no, that's not right. I am a good person, and I won't do anything to you. If I do, it will only be after you have transformed."
Wu Xing could sense Ah Yin's tension and couldn't help but offer some comfort.
This comfort only made her more terrified.
If she weren't unable to move, her true form would surely have retreated several steps.
If she weren't unable to speak, she would have shouted, "Don't come over here!"
Wu Xing didn't care about the current state of Ah Yin's true form; he walked up to her and sat down right beside her.
He then opened the Chat Group, immediately activated the screenshot function, and posted a photo of the man and the grass directly into the group.
[Wu Xing: Image JPG.]
[Blue Silver Empress: Group Master, I was wrong.]
[Xiao Wu: ???]
[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: ???]
[Ning Shui Fei Luan: ???]
[Ning Rongrong: Brother Wu Xing, what are you doing? Why aren't you showing your face again?]
[Xue Qinghe: Lord Group Master, that blade of grass beside you—could it be the true form of the Blue Silver Empress?]
Following the image uploaded by Wu Xing and Ah Yin's plea for mercy, the group members all sent strings of question marks.
[Wu Xing: Congratulations to student Xue Qinghe for getting it right. I am currently right beside fellow group member Blue Silver Empress.]
[Ning Rongrong: Ah? No, don't! Rongrong is waiting for you to "secret room" me, Brother; please let Blue Silver Empress sister go.]
[Zhu Zhuqing: Same as above.]
[Xiao Wu: Same as above +1.]
[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: Same as above +2.]
[Sea God Island High Priest: Same as above +9.]
[Bibi Dong: Same as above +10.]
[Blue Silver Empress: ...]
Watching the uniform "same as above" in the group, Ah Yin's leaves wilted halfway, feeling that she was doomed.
And as Wu Xing saw everyone echoing the little demoness's words, the smile on his lips grew even wider.
Good grief, these goddesses must have walked onto the wrong set, or perhaps I've stumbled into the wrong hentai; they're all fighting to cut in line for the secret chamber, aren't they?
Even Bo Saixi and the person involved, Bibi Dong, jumped out enthusiastically; if I don't hold a secret chamber session in the future, I'll feel like I'm failing to live up to their requests.
[Wu Xing: Fine, fine, fine, so that's how you want to play it? Remember what you said today, and don't go running faster than a rabbit when the time comes.]
[Wu Xing: Especially you, High Priest and Bibi Dong. The legacy of Cao Cao and the spirit of the Jian'an era are my absolute favorites.]
[Sea God Island High Priest: Lord Group Master, I was only joking. I was merely responding to your call.]
[Bibi Dong: Lord Group Master, Dong'er was as well.]
[Ning Rongrong: What are the legacy of Cao Cao and the spirit of the Jian'an era... Ah, Brother Wu Xing, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person, but I like it! You are welcome anytime, Brother Wu Xing.]
[Xiao Wu: Brother Wu Xing, bunnies are so cute, can you please not bully the bunny?]
[Wu Xing: ...]
Watching the bizarre turn of events in the chat, Wu Xing's mouth twitched a few times.
Of course, he didn't take it to heart, knowing that most of the members were just joking around.
[Wu Xing: Alright, enough messing around with you all. Let's talk about this Blue Silver Empress.]
[Blue Silver Empress: Lord Group Master, what is there to talk about regarding me?]
[Ning Rongrong: Sitting and waiting for Brother Wu Xing to start his lecture. Peanuts, melon seeds, and beer are already prepared.]
[Xiao Wu: Rongrong, what are peanuts, melon seeds, and beer?]
[Ning Rongrong: Xiao Wu, you're so silly. Look at the Blue Star items in the Group Mall. They are the best snacks from Brother Wu Xing's world for chatting and watching a show. You can buy a whole box for one point.]
[Xiao Wu: Got it, I'm buying some too. Sitting and waiting for Brother Wu Xing to start class.]
[Dugu Yan: Sitting and waiting +2.]
[Sea God Island High Priest: Sitting and waiting +9.]
[Bibi Dong: Lord Group Master, is the Blue Silver Empress you mentioned the 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast that was surrounded and hunted down by Qian... the former Pope over a decade ago?]
[Wu Xing: That's right, it's her.]
[Bibi Dong: So it really is her. Didn't she sacrifice herself for Tang Hao? How is she not dead?]
[Wu Xing: Now you're asking the right questions. I'll take this opportunity to educate you all on the abilities of the Blue Silver Empress and, while I'm at it, expose Tang Hao's secrets.]
As Wu Xing's words appeared, the chat group was instantly stirred into a frenzy. Everyone who had been watching the spectacle with amusement suddenly became fully alert, even Ah Yin, who fell completely silent.
As for Qian Renxue, currently disguised as Xue Qinghe, she gripped her fingertips tightly, her heart surging with turmoil.
The "former Pope" that Bibi Dong had just hesitated to name was none other than her father, Qian Xunji.
She had thought the previous matter would be glossed over in the group, but unexpectedly, the situation had taken a turn, and now the Group Master was bringing it up himself.
At this moment, she wanted to know the truth of that year more than any other member, and she wanted to uncover every hidden detail...
