Gu Yue's Plans, the Four Great Spirit Envoys, and the Secrets of Dragon Valley
Eastsea City.
On the street.
"Boss, why are you Shrek Academy? You mustn't get brainwashed!" Na'er walked beside Jiang Xiu, her little face slightly furrowed, looking very puzzled.
Upon learning that Jiang Xiu was going to enter Shrek Academy, Na'er felt very uneasy. Shrek Academy had brainwashed Ye Xinglan to such an extent; if her boss went in, would he ever be able to come back safely?
She was still hoping that Jiang Xiu would help her revive the Soul Beast Clan.
"There's nothing we can do, they gave us too much," Jiang Xiu said with a shake of his head and a sigh.
"I have money too, I'll support you," Na'er said without hesitation, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore." Seeing Na'er get serious, Jiang Xiu smiled slightly. "I'm just going there for an exchange program, not actually Shrek Academy."
"Besides, how do you know I'll be brainwashed after entering Shrek Academy? What if I can bring back some local specialties from the Shrek Academy?"
Jiang Xiu smiled knowingly and said.
Currently, Yue Zhengyu of the Southern Angel Family and Yuanen Yehui of the Titan Yuanen Family are both at the Shrek Academy.
If handled properly, the Angel Family and the Southern Legion under their control will be a major tool for him to restrain the Sea God Legion in the future.
Yuanen Yehui is also related to the Demon Plane and the opportunity for the Underworld Emperor to become a god.
"Hey!" Na'er was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Recalling five years ago, even someone as intelligent as her was defeated by Jiang Xiu, not to mention the others. She nodded in agreement, "Boss, what you said makes sense."
However, Na'er had some doubts about the local specialty that her eldest son mentioned.
What local specialties does Shrek Academy have?
"Alright, don't worry about me. Besides, Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda are both in Shrek City. They're just a few steps away, not far away." Jiang Xiu reached out and smoothed the stray hair sticking up on Na'er's head, saying with a smile.
"Let's hurry to the steamed bun shop, or it'll be crowded."
"Oh, right, the steamed bun shop." Upon hearing this, Na'er gradually relaxed, her expression Shi Xing. She pulled Jiang Xiu along and quickly walked forward.
By this time, autumn was gradually deepening.
Even though Eastsea City is located near the coast, it has taken on a touch of autumn. The trees on both sides of the street are golden yellow, and occasionally a few autumn leaves fall, covering the ground with a carpet of leaves that makes a crisp "crunch" sound when stepped on.
Dressed in a white dress Na'er was like a white butterfly in a golden world, walking lightly down the street, while Jiang Xiu followed behind her with a smile in his eyes.
As Jiang Xiu and Na'er navigated through the crowded streets, they unexpectedly spotted several familiar figures emerging from a hotel on one side. This hotel belonged to the Skysea Alliance and was not far from the Blacksmith Association.
"Hey! Boss, aren't those people from the Shrek Academy?" Na'er pointed at the group, one of whom was in a wheelchair and covered in white bandages.
The person in the lead was Shen Yi, the team leader of Shrek Academy Team, and Ye Xinglan had somehow returned to the group.
When Ye Xinglan saw Jiang Xiu, her eyes lit up, while Xu Lizhi beside her looked utterly powerless.
"Jiang classmate." Shen Yi greeted Jiang Xiu and Na'er warmly when he saw them.
This morning, Ya Li told them that Jiang Xiu was coming to the Shrek Academy for an exchange program. As a student who was about to enter Shrek Academy, Shen Yi naturally couldn't be indifferent to him.
As for yesterday's match, she didn't think Jiang Xiu went too far. After all, the competition is like a battlefield; losing is losing, and winning is winning.
Moreover, last night, her senior brother Wu Changkong cleared up the misunderstanding with his teacher and reconciled. If it weren't for Jiang Xiu, her teacher might not have shown up at all.
"Hello, Teacher Shen." Jiang Xiu greeted them politely upon seeing them.
"Hmm!" However, when Yu Yuanheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, saw Jiang Xiu, his expression instantly became somewhat excited. The reason he was in a wheelchair was entirely thanks to Jiang Xiu in front of him.
The scene of the Thunder Dragon trying to leave him was still vivid in his mind. Even last night, when he summoned the Thunder Dragon, the Thunder Dragon only responded with a faint, "I'm a little tired, don't touch me."
It is evident that his Soul Spirit had somehow taken on the form of Jiang Xiu.
"Isn't this Brother Yu? I forgot to bring you a fruit basket this time, I'll make it up to you next time." Jiang Xiu said with a smile, looking at Yu Yuanheng, whose eyes were blazing with anger.
During the match, if Yu Yuanheng hadn't secretly released his Soul Spirit Soul Spirit launch a sneak attack, he wouldn't have scattered it. But since Yu Yuanheng had launched the sneak attack, he wouldn't have shown any mercy.
"Jiang Xiu, you've gone too far!" Yu Yuanheng so angry upon hearing this that his nose almost twisted out of shape. He said resentfully, "Jiang Xiu, you've gone too far!"
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; never underestimate a young man's potential, I will surely crush you with my own hands!"
"Then are there 'Don't underestimate the poor in middle age' and 'Don't underestimate the poor in old age'? And finally, the dead are respected?" Na'er pouted her red lips, directly protecting her husband.
Upon hearing this, even the Shrek Academy behind Yu Yuanheng couldn't help but chuckle.
"Ahem..." Seeing the tense situation, Shen Yi quickly coughed twice. "Alright, Jiang, we need to go back to the Shrek Academy. His Her Holiness Holy Spirit asked me to tell you that you can report to the Shrek Academy in two days."
"Yes, no problem." Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered, and he nodded in response. The sooner he entered Shrek Academy, the sooner he could obtain the Seed of Life.
Seeing that Jiang Xiu agreed, Shen Yi smiled slightly and then led the Shrek Academy students away.
"Let's go, boss, let's continue eating." Na'er raised her head and pulled Jiang Xiu forward.
But when the two arrived at the entrance of the steamed bun shop, they found a beautiful figure in a black dress sitting at a table, looking at them with a smile.
"Gu Yue? What are you doing here?!" Na'er exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes immediately turning cautious.
Gu Yue gave Na'er a rather amusing glare and secretly transmitted her voice, "All you do is eat and sleep. Isn't it easy to find out what you're up to?"
"Slander! Be careful, I'll sue you for slander!" Na'er said indignantly, even though she had clearly been working hard to cultivate.
"Boss, bring three baskets... no, six baskets of steamed buns, with meat filling." Jiang Xiu raised an eyebrow when he saw Gu Yue, called out, and then led Na'er to Gu Yue's side.
What a coincidence!
Unfortunately, I've been waiting for you.
Gu Yue smiled softly, a hint of red in her lips.
"Oh? Something's up?" Jiang Xiu said meaningfully.
"I'm going to take the Spirit Pagoda's promotion exam ahead of schedule, and try to qualify as one of the four future Four Great Spirit Envoys before entering the Spirit Pagoda headquarters," Gu Yue said softly, her tone extremely relaxed.
"Then good luck." A glint of light flashed in Jiang Xiu's eyes. If Gu Yue became the messenger of the Spirit Pagoda in the future, it would be absolutely beneficial for Leng Yaozhu's rise to power.
However, Jiang Xiu knew in his heart that Gu Yue was different from Na'er, and that Gu Yue was definitely more inclined towards the Soul Beast Clan at this moment.
"Don't get any bad ideas. You only won one round." Na'er, who was standing to the side, warned him in secret, even though she didn't know what Gu Yue was planning.
"You can talk about guarding the house first, my foolish Na'er," Gu Yue said with a faint smile.
Immediately, their gazes met sharply.
Fortunately, the owner brought out the steamed buns at that moment, interrupting their argument.
Because Gu Yue was there, Na'er didn't feel comfortable eating. Even the delicious buns tasted bland to her. After finishing her meal, she pulled Jiang Xiu away.
"Na'er, you only have two and a half years left. In two and a half years, I will personally go to the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters, and your chances of winning will be even smaller then."
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Gu Yue secretly transmitted her voice.
"Hmph, we'll see who wins and who loses."
Na'er paused, retorted without hesitation, and then disappeared from Gu Yue's sight with Jiang Xiu.
"My the Master, news has come from the King of Ten Thousand Demons's side that they have located the exact location of Dragon Valley."
Just after the two left, a tall figure appeared in front of Gu Yue and respectfully reported to the leader.
"Oh, well done." Gu Yue's eyes flashed slightly as she said softly.
There was something extremely important that she needed in Dragon Valley.
"But..." Di Tian hesitated for a moment before saying, "According to the King of Ten Thousand Demons, the Tang Sect seems to have had some things stolen recently, and now the checks on all the secret realms are extremely strict."
"Huh? The Tang Sect was robbed?" A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yue's eyes. How could such a powerful force Tang Sect be robbed? What other force could do such a thing?
"It's alright. As long as we know where Dragon Valley is, there will be opportunities in the future," Gu Yue said, waving her hand.
"Yes, my the Master," Di Tian replied, then tentatively added, "My the Master, the Golden Dragon King Origin is right before our eyes, should we...?"
"No need," Gu Yue interrupted directly. "I have my own plan and pace for dealing with the Golden Dragon King Origin; you don't need to say anything more."
"At that time, everything will belong to me."
"Yes the Master."
Di Tian respectfully responded, but for some reason, he had a feeling that something was amiss.
This must be his imagination...
It must be.
