The Huangpu Classroom Begins

While the women were carefully selecting Immortal Herbs, Wu Xing had already left the Chat Group.

He had been in Douluo Continent for half a day, but all he had done was chat and shoot the breeze with everyone. He hadn't properly explored a single city in this world.

Luckily, there was a small city not far from where he had arrived. He went in and asked someone for directions—and what a coincidence, it turned out to be Nuoding City.

Wu Xing's eyes lit up at once, and his interest soared.

From what he had learned in the Chat Group, there was less than a year left until the Soul Master Elite Tournament for the continent's advanced academies. Blue Tyrant Academy had also only recently been renamed Shrek Academy.

As a longtime fan who had watched the original series and anime, he knew Tang Hao wouldn't be around at this time. That meant his chance had come.

First, he would find Ah Yin and bring her to his side. He'd give her a thorough course in secret-chamber education, build up their relationship, and then set off for Heaven Dou City.

Having made up his mind, Wu Xing didn't linger in Nuoding City. He waved a hand, and a detailed map of the surrounding area appeared in it.

He glanced over the map, picked out the direction, and sped toward Holy Soul Village.

He was now a thirty-ninth-level Soul Elder, and his physical prowess far surpassed that of ordinary people. Even a speed-type Soul Emperor might not be as fast as he was.

After about fifteen minutes, he reached a waterfall in the back hills of Holy Soul Village.

Wu Xing didn't immediately enter the cave behind the waterfall. Instead, he brought out his Second Martial Soul and conducted a thorough search of the entire area.

He knew Tang Hao was unlikely to show up here at this time, but there was no harm in being careful.

After searching, he found no trace of Tang Hao. Only then did he withdraw his Second Martial Soul and sneak into the cave.

At the same time, as Wu Xing slipped into the cave, Ah Yin sensed the unfamiliar presence that had entered from outside.

After joining the Chat Group, her true form had changed considerably, and her perception had grown much sharper.

When Wu Xing came close to her true form, Ah Yin could hardly believe her eyes. Wasn't the visitor dressed just like the Group Leader in the Chat Group?

The Group Leader had come to find her?

Was it because of those screenshots she'd posted in the Chat Group?

Was he here to take revenge on her in the secret chamber?

Ah Yin's mind raced, and she grew tense and flustered. She was still a blade of grass right now—she couldn't get frisky, let alone grass around!

Looking at the Blue Silver Emperor, its roots swaying and leaves flailing, Wu Xing wore a trace of amusement.

"Ah Yin, my fellow group member. I didn't expect us to meet so soon."

At Wu Xing's words, Ah Yin shook even more vigorously. That confirmed it—the man really was the Group Leader.

"Don't be afraid. I'm not a good person—bah, no, I mean I'm a good person. I won't do anything to you. Not until you take human form, anyway."

Wu Xing could sense Ah Yin's nerves, so he tried to reassure her.

That might have been better than nothing. Instead, his reassurance only made her more afraid.

If she'd been able to move, her true form would surely have retreated several steps.

If she'd been able to speak, she would have shouted, "Don't come any closer!"

Wu Xing didn't care how Ah Yin's true form was acting. He came over and plopped down beside her.

Then he opened the Chat Group, activated the screenshot function, and posted a picture of himself beside the blade of grass.

[Wu Xing: Image.JPG.]

[Blue Silver Emperor: Group Leader, 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: Group Leader, the blade of grass beside you wouldn't happen to be the Blue Silver Emperor's true form, would it?]

As soon as Wu Xing's picture appeared, along with Ah Yin's plea for mercy, the group members began firing off questions.

[Wu Xing: Congratulations, Xue Qinghe. You got it right. I'm right here beside our fellow group member, the Blue Silver Emperor.]

[Ning Rongrong: Huh? Nooo! Rongrong is waiting for you in the secret chamber, Brother. Let Big Sister Blue Silver Emperor go!]

[Zhu Zhuqing: Same.]

[Xiao Wu: Same +1.]

[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: Same +2.]

...

[Sea God Island High Priest: Same +9.]

[Bibi Dong: Same +10.]

[Blue Silver Emperor: ...]

Watching the chat fill with one "same" after another, Ah Yin's leaves drooped halfway. She felt that she was doomed.

Seeing everyone echo the Little Witch, Wu Xing's grin grew wider.

Good grief. Had all these goddesses wandered into the wrong show, or had he stumbled into the wrong adult anime? They were all clamoring to cut in line for the secret chamber!

Even Bo Saixi and Bibi Dong, the person at the heart of the matter, had eagerly jumped in. If he didn't put them through secret-chamber education later, he'd be letting them down.

[Wu Xing: All right, all right. So that's how you want to play it? Remember what you said today. Don't go running off faster than rabbits when the time comes.]

[Wu Xing: Especially you two, High Priest and Bibi Dong. Wei Wu's Legacy and Jian'an Character are my absolute favorites.]

[Sea God Island High Priest: Group Leader, I was joking! I was just responding to your call.]

[Bibi Dong: Group Leader, Dong'er was too.]

[Ning Rongrong: Wei Wu's Legacy, Jian'an Character—what are those...? Ah, Brother Wu Xing, I never knew you were that kind of person! But Rongrong likes it a lot. Brother Wu Xing is welcome anytime.]

[Xiao Wu: Brother Wu Xing, rabbits are so cute. Can you please not bully this rabbit?]

[Wu Xing: ...]

Looking at the Chat Group's bizarre turn of events, Wu Xing's mouth twitched.

Of course, he didn't take it seriously. He knew most of the members were joking.

[Wu Xing: All right, enough messing around. Let's talk about the Blue Silver Emperor.]

[Blue Silver Emperor: Group Leader, what's there to talk about with me?]

[Ning Rongrong: Sitting down to hear Brother Wu Xing's lecture. Peanuts, melon seeds, and beer are all ready.]

[Xiao Wu: Rongrong, what are peanuts, melon seeds, and beer?]

[Ning Rongrong: Xiao Wu, you're so silly. Take a look at the Blue Star items in the Group Mall. They're the perfect snacks for chatting and watching the fun in Brother Wu Xing's world. One point buys a whole case.]

[Xiao Wu: Got it. I'll buy some too, then sit back and wait for Brother Wu Xing's lesson.]

[Dugu Yan: Waiting +2.]

[Sea God Island High Priest: Waiting +9.]

[Bibi Dong: Group Leader, is the Blue Silver Emperor you mentioned the Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast who was surrounded and hunted by Qian... the former Pope more than ten years ago?]

[Wu Xing: That's right. It's her.]

[Bibi Dong: So it really was her! Wasn't she sacrificed to Tang Hao? How is she still alive?]

[Wu Xing: Now that's the right question. Since we have this opportunity, I'll give you all a rundown of the Blue Silver Emperor's abilities—and take a closer look at Tang Hao while I'm at it.]

As soon as Wu Xing said this, the Chat Group erupted. Everyone who'd been enjoying the spectacle without caring about the consequences immediately sat up straight, and Ah Yin fell silent as well.

Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, clenched her fingers tight, her thoughts churning.

The former Pope Bibi Dong had just started to mention was her father, Qian Xunji.

She had thought the matter would be dropped in the Chat Group. She hadn't expected another twist in the road—or that the Group Leader would bring it up himself.

At that moment, more than any other group member, she wanted to know the truth about what had happened back then, to uncover every hidden detail...
