Yu Xiaogang Was Cuckolded?

Flender carried the unconscious Tang San on his back. Just as he was about to return to the inn and gather Dai Mubai and the other three to head back to the Academy, a pair of pink rabbit ears poked out from the nearby bushes.

"Who's there!"

Hearing the movement in the bushes, Flender was instantly both shocked and enraged.

First the Titan Giant Ape, then a child, and now a short sword from who knew where that had gone straight for his little brother.

What, had Flender run into something cursed today?

Or was the Star Dou Forest specifically targeting him!?

He was a Soul Saint, for crying out loud! Didn't he have any dignity!?

At worst, he simply would never come to the Star Dou Forest again!

"M-Me! Headmaster, it's me!"

Seemingly hearing the fury in Flender's voice, the owner of those rabbit ears directly poked her entire head out.

"Xiao Wu!? You're not dead!?"

Seeing Xiao Wu, who had been taken away by the Titan Giant Ape yet returned completely unharmed, Flender's face, which normally resembled that of a profiteer, was immediately filled with astonishment.

A mere Soul Grandmaster had escaped from the Forest King's grasp?

Was this even fucking possible!?

Flender felt as though his worldview had been completely reshaped.

Xiao Wu smiled awkwardly and recited the explanation she had prepared long ago.

Her story was exactly the same as in the original work, including her lucky breakthrough to Rank 30 and the Lightning Rabbit that had luckily been knocked unconscious.

After hearing Xiao Wu's carefully fabricated explanation, Flender was left dumbfounded once more.

Could someone really be this lucky?

Flender did not pursue the matter. Returning to the Academy was more important right now.

"It's good that you're back. Xiao Wu, stay close to me later. Don't fall behind."

After saying that, Flender was just about to leave with Tang San on his back when he heard Xiao Wu's awkward voice again.

"Um, Headmaster, could you help me? I think... something in these bushes has me stuck."

Flender: ...

Meanwhile, Lu Li did not choose to return to Heaven Dou City. Instead, he headed straight for Soto City.

Six years ago, when Liu Erlong returned to Blue Tyrant Academy and then went back to Notting City, Lu Li had sent Dragon One to follow her the entire way.

There was no other reason. He simply wanted to confirm whether Yu Xiaogang was truly together with Liu Erlong.

Besides that, he had placed a Recording Stone in their room and office. How could the story of two lovers be kept from their parents?

Then, when Dragon One returned, he informed Lu Li that Yu Xiaogang had run away.

At the time, Lu Li had not chosen to let the two remain together.

After running away twice in a row, if there were a third time, Liu Erlong would only become even crazier when she saw Yu Xiaogang again.

"Perfect. I'll take this opportunity to tear down Shrek Academy, then release word and guide them to Blue Tyrant Academy in Heaven Dou City."

Six years had been enough for Liu Erlong to accumulate plenty of longing. This brief separation making reunion sweeter than newlyweds would be even more intense than the last time.

"Gangzi, Gangzi, I wonder what you'll use to satisfy Liu Erlong when the time comes."

Lu Li stood atop Little Yellow's head, watching the towns below rapidly recede.

As they entered Soto City, Dragon One's voice suddenly sounded in Lu Li's mind.

"Master, the aura of that Academy headmaster from six years ago is in the city below."

Upon hearing this, Lu Li stared blankly down at Soto City.

What the hell!?

Liu Erlong was in Soto City!?

Lu Li could be one hundred percent certain that Yu Xiaogang had run away back then. Apart from the memories in his mind concerning events six years later, the reason he knew Yu Xiaogang was here was—

Tang San was by Flender's side. Since Tang San had come to Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang would basically not be anywhere else.

Yet no matter how he thought about it, he had never expected Liu Erlong to be in Soto City too.

"Dragon One, sense her location and see what that headmaster is doing."

Lu Li instructed Dragon One beside him.

If Liu Erlong was at Shrek Academy, that could only mean Dragon One had made a mistake.

However, Lu Li felt that the chances of such a thing happening were close to zero.

"Yes, Master."

At Dragon One's command—

In the next moment, his Title Douluo-level spiritual power spread out instantly, searching the entirety of Soto City bit by bit.

After a while, Dragon One's voice echoed in Lu Li's mind.

"Reporting to Master, she is at the Rose Hotel, with a..."

The rest could not pass review.

After hearing Dragon One's words, Lu Li stood frozen for several seconds before finally reacting.

"Hiss, Yu Xiaogang..."

"Got cuckolded!?"

This was too fucking explosive!

Liu Erlong was at the Rose Hotel with a...

"Gangzi, Gangzi, how could you be so useless?"

"Well, now Liu Erlong has directly..."

Lu Li shook his head.

Wasn't it just that he no longer had his little brother?

Did Liu Erlong really have to be pent up that badly?

Lu Li once again summoned out his Recording Stone brother from the Ancestral Dragon Ring.

"Gangzi, Gangzi, I wonder how you'll feel when you find out Liu Erlong did something like this behind your back."

Lu Li looked at the Recording Stone in his hand.

What Gangzi cared about most was neither Bibi Dong nor Liu Erlong, much less Tang San. It was his reputation.

For someone who valued face more than his own life, seeing his woman with someone else behind his back...

"Dragon One, take this Recording Stone and find that headmaster. Remember, don't let her discover you."

Lu Li handed the Recording Stone to Dragon One.

Lu Li felt that in a few more days, he could make a trip to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

Every time he encountered Yu Xiaogang and Tang San's group, the Recording Stone could be updated once. So far, the update rate was one hundred percent.

All he could say was that the people of Shrek Academy were truly straightforward. Were they afraid their Academy would not be famous enough during the Grand Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament later on!?

"Yes, Master."

Dragon One accepted the Recording Stone from Lu Li and headed straight for the Rose Hotel.

About three hours later, Dragon One finally returned with the Recording Stone.

Lu Li looked at the Recording Stone Dragon One had brought back, his expression somewhat strange.

"I wonder whether Yu Xiaogang will feel inferior once he finds out the duration."

Lu Li shook his head and stopped thinking about such pointless matters.

Once he showed Yu Xiaogang the contents of this Recording Stone, he would find out.

Meanwhile, at the Rose Hotel—

At that moment, inside the bathroom of one of the rooms, the sound of running water stopped.

With a radiant expression and a faint smile on her cheeks, Liu Erlong emerged from the bathroom.

When Liu Erlong saw Ma Fu lying on the floor, pale-faced and devoid of life, the smile on her face immediately vanished.

"Damn it, these mortals' bodies are far too weak. This is already the fifth one."

Over the past six years, five Ma Fus had already died at Liu Erlong's hands.

This showed just how deeply Liu Erlong missed Yu Xiaogang.

"Forget it. As long as they can replace Xiao Gang, these Ma Fus can be considered to have died gloriously."

Liu Erlong put on her clothes.

"It's time to go out and look for Xiao Gang."

Liu Erlong turned back and glanced once more at Ma Fu lying on the floor, without any trace of life.

"While I'm at it, I should find another Ma Fu who resembles Xiao Gang. Hopefully, this time, the Ma Fu will be a Soul Master."

Liu Erlong raised her head to look at the sky, then left the Rose Hotel and headed toward Soto City's Great Spirit Arena.
