Heading to Eastsea City

This matter spread widely within the Yue Family, eventually reaching the entire Angel City.

Other families in Angel City were somewhat curious. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was Le Zhengyue's doing, yet no one spoke a word.

Instead, on the third day after Yue Zhengyu returned, Le Zhengen personally issued an order. Citing the need for Yue Zhengyu to heal his injuries and undergo the Angel Inheritance, he had his eldest grandson placed directly into the Angel Forbidden Land.

That was a vital cultivation area for the Angel Family; while it allowed for rapid cultivation, it also meant he was completely isolated from the outside world.

Many people were quite surprised by this news.

With Le Zhengyue's disappearance and Yue Zhengyu's confinement, the entire Yue Family seemed to fall into a sudden silence.

However, aside from attracting a certain amount of attention in the south, there was no interest from anywhere else.

At this moment in Eastsea City, inside a somewhat modest room, a man and a woman were cleaning while Le Zhengyue sat quietly to the side.

"Uncle, Aunt, you've finished getting everything ready for me, right? Including my identification and such? I'm going to start my studies at Eastsea Academy very soon."

Le Zhengyue spoke to the two of them quite casually, while they treated him with great courtesy.

They were merely ordinary people, members of a distant branch of the Yue Family, their lineage separated from the main family by more than three generations.

The Yue Family paid no mind to such people.

Their status was only slightly better than that of the Yue Family's servants, and they weren't even allowed to leave Angel City easily.

The only reason they were able to leave this time was because of Le Zhengyue, so even though he was just a collateral descendant, they still held a shred of gratitude toward him.

"Little Yue, don't you worry about that. Your uncle and I have already arranged it. Your identity is absolutely clean; you are our child."

The man looked at Le Zhengyue with great respect, and Le Zhengyue simply nodded.

Eastsea Academy would be opening in about two or three days, but he wasn't particularly concerned about the start of the term.

Under normal circumstances, he would never have come to Eastsea Academy; after all, there was no benefit in getting close to the protagonist's team.

But at this stage, with Shrek Academy about to hold its Youth Class, rather than entering based on his Yue Family status, it was better to go through the connections in Eastsea City.

After all, within Shrek Academy, there was a high probability that Yun Ming had his memories, or perhaps Ya Li did as well.

Of course, Le Zhengyue didn't know exactly who retained their memories, but since they were able to coordinate, someone certainly had to.

In such a situation, people like Tang Wulin would definitely be scouted.

The reason they hadn't made a move earlier was likely out of fear of alerting the enemy.

However, at this stage, as the era slowly advanced, there was no issue with Tang Wulin and the others heading to Shrek Academy in the open.

And this was the moment when Le Zhengyue could follow along.

When the time came, Shrek Academy would most likely send people to various cities to scout for talent, and Eastsea City would certainly be a key area of investigation.

Therefore, tagging along with Tang Wulin at this stage to hitch a ride to Shrek Academy was exactly what Le Zhengyue wanted.

In this somewhat cramped room—which naturally couldn't compare to the rooms in the Yue Family estate, measuring only about twenty square meters and appearing quite small—the atmosphere was surprisingly satisfying.

Le Zhengyue went about his own business, and as time slipped by, the annual opening day of Eastsea Academy officially arrived.

The campus was lush with greenery, and countless students were chattering away, interacting with one another while accompanied by their parents.

Le Zhengyue's two "convenient" parents were by his side as well, the three of them chatting idly.

Finally, Le Zhengyue entered the school alone, completed his registration at the dean's office, and after verifying his identity, he brought his luggage to the dormitory.

He did not choose Tang Wulin's dormitory, but instead opted for the one shared by Zhang Yangzi, Wei Xiaofeng, and Wang Jinxi.

After taking the spot of the fourth person, he settled in quietly.

This dormitory was not only close to Tang Wulin's, but it was also likely to be much better.

As for his class, he chose Class Five for himself as well.

Based on the investigations Song Wen and the others had conducted over the past few days, Tang Wulin and his group had also chosen Class Five.

Aside from Wu Zhangkong, no one knew about this.

Or rather, at this stage, aside from Wu Zhangkong possessing his memories, the others—including Long Hengxu and the dean—likely did not.

Le Zhengyue opened the door and looked at the three of them; they were stunned when they saw him.

After all, Le Zhengyue's appearance was far too striking. He possessed the fair skin usually reserved for girls, yet his face was filled with a sense of masculine vigor.

In particular, those golden eyes seemed to shine like the sun when looked upon, giving off a very peculiar feeling.

Le Zhengyue answered their greetings quite simply.

He wasn't planning to get close to Tang Wulin's team, nor was he planning to become his enemy immediately.

He was merely preparing to use Tang Wulin to get to Shrek Academy, to give himself a more legitimate background—or rather, a background that wasn't completely severed from the Yue Family.

He needed the Yue Family as his backing, but he couldn't afford to expose too many things.

After all, if a direct descendant of the Angel Family arrived here, or if a direct descendant went to study at Shrek Academy, it would attract a lot of attention.

Only by being a collateral descendant of the Angel Family, entering through his own selection process, would he avoid drawing any attention. That was exactly what Le Zhengyue needed.

Although, once they reached Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin and Huo Yuhao would likely meet, and based on Tang Wulin's memories, he might recognize Wang Dong.

However, Le Zhengyue was not certain of the extent to which he approved of Huo Yuhao as a brother-in-law.

Of course, the most crucial point was not this, but rather that by using this identity to enter, Tang Wulin and the others would naturally harbor some goodwill toward him.

In such a situation, if he could guide Tang Wulin to become good friends or even lovers with Wang Dong'er, it would be much easier to deal with Huo Yuhao by leveraging Tang Wulin. This was what Le Zhengyue truly needed.

Rather than making himself the focal point and opposing three protagonists alone, it was better to pull the three of them apart and then keep them in check.

If Tang Wulin were to meet Tang San, to meet his own biological father, the probability of him resisting was slim.

Or rather, he would not resist his own father, so as for everyone else, it would not matter.

After all, at this stage, Tang Wulin had only experienced the double suicide, did not possess the memories of his fourth ten-thousand-year life, and had never truly been with Tang San.

Therefore, while he would acknowledge his sister, he likely would not acknowledge Huo Yuhao.

After exchanging greetings, the group of four went to the cafeteria to have a meal together, and Le Zhengyue also gained a brief understanding of the situation in Eastsea City.

The opening ceremony was in the afternoon, and everyone was required to attend.

Normal class sessions followed the opening ceremony.

The three of them actually felt some disdain regarding Le Zhengyue heading to Class Five, but Le Zhengyue was so good-looking that their expressions became somewhat complicated for a moment.

However, Le Zhengyue did not care much about them; he had come here solely to get into Shrek Academy.

According to his understanding of Shrek, or rather the information passed down by the Yue Family, within a week at most, these people would undergo a selection process and then head to the Shrek Academy Youth Class.
