The expressions of the guards at the entrance of Shrek Academy were quite colorful.
"Human…"
The flat-chested girl before them was definitely not human!
This… this must be someone here to stir up trouble, right?
Shrek Academy was already in such a miserable state. Were they… trying to wipe them out completely?
As the Ice Empress's aura erupted, the higher-ups of Shrek Academy collectively trembled, stunned.
A savage beast had actually come to Shrek Academy to cause trouble!
Truly… if you don't seek death, you won't die!
"Even if the gods bully us, do savage beasts also look down on us now?"
"Hmph, we'll make sure you never leave!"
The higher-ups of Shrek Academy couldn't defeat god-level powerhouses, but could they not handle a single savage beast?
As long as it wasn't the Beast God Di Tian, the higher-ups of Shrek Academy had nothing to fear.
Perfect, they could use the blood of this savage beast to wash away the shame of Shrek Academy!
"Who dares to trespass into Shrek Academy…"
Yan Shaozhe was the first to arrive at the academy's entrance. But when he saw who the intruder was, the words he was about to speak were forcefully swallowed back.
"Martial… Martial God!"
Yan Shaozhe's eyes widened in confusion, his face turning from red to pale.
When he saw Zhongli, only one thought filled his mind:
"During this time, no one has offended Martial God, right? And no one has offended Liyue, have they?"
If there was one "person" the higher-ups of Shrek Academy least wanted to see right now, it was undoubtedly Zhongli!
Shrek Academy had been reduced to its current state entirely because of Zhongli!
"Where did this pathetic chicken come from!"
The Ice Empress shouted, and Absolute Zero erupted without warning, freezing Yan Shaozhe in an instant.
A Title Douluo at the 92nd level was simply no match for the peak-level Ice Empress!
Yan Shaozhe had originally been at the 95th level, close to the 96th level, but after being revived by Tang San, he had dropped to the 92nd level!
The difference between each level of a Title Douluo was immense, let alone such a large gap.
"Tch, what a weakling!"
The Ice Empress curled her lip as she spoke to the ice sculpture.
Seeing this, the higher-ups of Shrek Academy couldn't help but narrow their eyes.
"Ultimate Ice!"
"This is Ultimate Ice!"
A savage beast with Ultimate Ice… could this be one of the Three Great Kings of the Extreme North?
If not the Snow Empress, then it must be the Ice Empress!
"Shaozhe!"
Xian Lin'er cried out in alarm and was about to step forward, but an old woman pulled her back.
The old woman's face darkened as she looked at Xian Lin'er, then glanced at Qian Duoduo, whose face had also turned grim.
"Little Qian, I'm sorry."
"I know what's going on between you two. After this, you and Lin'er should separate."
"She's not the right match for you."
The old woman's face showed a hint of apology as she spoke.
Hearing this, both Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er were shaken. Before Qian Duoduo could say anything, Xian Lin'er lashed out like a shrew:
"Mom, what are you saying?"
"Shaozhe has been treated like this, and I'm just worried about him. Why would you say something like that?"
"Do you and Duoduo even have any feelings for each other?"
The old woman's expression remained unchanged as she spoke.
As someone who had been through it all, she knew Xian Lin'er too well.
Xian Lin'er had no feelings for Qian Duoduo, yet she used his feelings for her…
If Xian Lin'er weren't her daughter, she would have given her a couple of slaps to make this "bitch" stop acting so shamelessly.
"Can't we be together even if there are no feelings?"
Xian Lin'er asked in confusion.
The old woman and Qian Duoduo: "…"
"Lin'er, I've done so much for you, even willing to die for you. Has there ever been a place for me in your heart?"
Qian Duoduo asked indifferently.
He had already died once for Xian Lin'er, and after being revived, he found that she hadn't changed at all. This left him feeling lost and unsure.
What could he possibly say or do to make Xian Lin'er love him?
"Qian Duoduo, in such dire times, you're still talking about romance? Do you even have a conscience?"
Xian Lin'er pointed at Qian Duoduo and shouted angrily.
The old woman and Qian Duoduo exchanged a glance, momentarily speechless.
"Mom… no, Elder Song, after this, I'm willing to separate from Xian Lin'er!"
"From now on, I'll no longer be bound by her!"
Qian Duoduo waved his sleeve and walked toward the dormitory building.
If Wu Shen truly intended to take action against Shrek Academy, resistance would be futile.
Might as well wait in the dormitory to die!
At least that would be more honorable.
It would be unwise to face Wu Shen again for the sake of a woman like Xian Lin'er.
Elder Song looked at Qian Duoduo's retreating figure and sighed.
"Duoduo, you've suffered all these years!"
"Xian Lin'er, how could I, with all my wisdom, give birth to such a shameless creature like you?"
"You've already married Duoduo, so you should let go of the past. It's one thing to keep Duoduo hanging, and another to not consummate the marriage, but to care about Yan Shaozhe right in front of Duoduo…"
"You… in my hundred years of life, I've never seen someone as shameless as you!"
Xian Lin'er: "???"
Xian Lin'er was completely stunned. Her own mother had actually cursed her so harshly!
She had always been her mother's precious treasure since childhood. Elder Song had never even scolded her, let alone used such harsh words.
But today, Elder Song had berated her mercilessly!
At this moment, Xian Lin'er felt as if she were hallucinating.
"I… I didn't do anything wrong…"
Xian Lin'er didn't think she had done anything wrong. Qian Duoduo was just a simp. Didn't he know she liked Yan Shaozhe?
Could a simp ever hope to become the main character?
Seeing this, Elder Song's right hand trembled slightly.
Slap! A palm print appeared on Xian Lin'er's left cheek, and her head tilted to the right.
Her eyes were filled with confusion. Elder Song had not only cursed her but also hit her?
As if still unsatisfied, Elder Song slapped Xian Lin'er's left cheek again.
Slap! The sound echoed once more.
"Xian Lin'er, I should never have begged the Sea God to revive you!"
At this moment, Elder Song thought of Mu En's words. She truly regretted it!
She had thought that after being revived, Xian Lin'er would settle down and live a good life with Duoduo.
But who would have thought that old habits die hard? She continued to act as she pleased.
Yan Shaozhe was good, but Qian Duoduo wasn't bad either, and he was very filial!
"You… you hit me?"
"I wish I could beat you to death!"
Seeing Xian Lin'er's clueless expression, unaware of her wrongdoing, Elder Song roared in fury.
"Um… Elder Song, maybe we should let this go for now?"
"Yan Shaozhe is in quite a dangerous situation…"
Elder Lin tried to mediate.
"Yan Shaozhe has no brains. He's acted impulsively once; he can do it again. He deserves this calamity!"
"Honestly, his death might be a good thing for the academy!"
Though this was true, saying it so openly would only cause morale to collapse!
Elder Lin thought to herself.
She glanced at Xian Lin'er, then at Elder Song, and ultimately said nothing.
This Xian Lin'er, calling herself a Martial God Douluo? Don't insult the title of Martial God, okay?
