Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 251 Heading to Shrek City
Upon receiving the message from Yan Shaozhe, Ling Shuang shook her head helplessly.

Ma Xiaotao's personality is indeed a bit too arrogant.

Her worries were completely unfounded. Just as Yan Shaozhe said, Ling Shuang never harbored any ill will towards Ma Xiaotao because of the Shrek Academy incident.

In fact, Ling Shuang didn't really care about that matter at all.

As they left, Ling Shuang said to Tang Ya, "I might be leaving for a while, so be careful not to reveal yourself."

"What's wrong?" Tang Ya asked, her voice tinged with reluctance.

Without Ling Shuang around, she felt really unsafe in Mingdu, where the Holy Spirit Cult gathered.

"To fulfill a promise that someone previously failed to keep," Ling Shuang explained.

"And what about me?" Gu Yuena suddenly asked.

According to the deal between her and Ling Shuang, he should be able to stay by Ling Shuang's side at any time.

"It's up to you. You can come along if you want," Ling Shuang said.

For him, it was simply a matter of changing the reason.

Since his breakthrough, Zhongli Wu has trusted him more and more, and as long as it's not too outrageous, he won't have any doubts at all.

Hearing Ling Shuang's words, Gu Yuena pondered for a moment before shaking her head: "Never mind, I'll stay here then."

Gu Yuena believed that even if she went back to the past, she probably wouldn't be able to make any substantial progress.

Rather than doing that, it's better to stay here. Maybe I can even help Tang Ya and gain Ling Shuang's favor further.

Upon hearing this, Ling Shuang didn't say much, but nodded slightly: "Then I will go and tell Zhongli Wu."

…………

Progress is going smoothly

Just as Ling Shuang said, Zhong Liwu now trusts him quite a bit.

Ling Shuang casually made up an excuse to leave the Sun Moon Empire, and Zhong Liwu agreed without any suspicion, simply asking Dark Douluo to accompany and protect him.

As for me, I have already completely joined Ling Shuang's forces as the Dark Douluo, so there is no need to worry about that.

He then set off for Shrek Academy.

With the support of the flying soul tool and Ling Shuang's abundant soul power, his travel speed was no slower than that of an ordinary Title Douluo traveling at full speed.

In just one day, Ling Shuang arrived in Shrek City.

Instead of going straight to Shrek Academy, he went to a hotel in Shrek Chengdu.

Yan Shaozhe waited here.

Because of Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei, Shrek Academy is now extremely hostile towards Ling Shuang.

Even Dean Yan Shaozhe couldn't reverse this hostility.

After all, Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei were beaten terribly, and several Shrek Academy students even died under the Ling Shuangyuan Flame. Those were facts that were undeniable.

Whatever the reason or cause, it's perfectly understandable that Shrek Academy harbors hostility towards him.

Ling Shuang wasn't being pretentious. She didn't think that just because she was there to help Ma Xiaotao, everyone at Shrek Academy should put aside their hostility towards her and be kind to her.

So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he didn't go to Shrek Academy, but instead arranged to meet Yan Shaozhe at this hotel.

As agreed in advance, Ling Shuang arrived at the corresponding room number and gently knocked on the door.

The door opened in response.

What comes into view is a weathered yet still beautiful face.

It was Cai Meier, Yan Shaozhe's wife and Ma Xiaotao's teacher's wife.

Upon seeing Ling Shuang, Cai Meier's expression clearly became excited. "Young Master Ling, you've arrived!"

She had always treated Ma Xiaotao as her own daughter. When she saw Ma Xiaotao being tormented by the evil fire and on the verge of death, Cai Meier was already as anxious as an ant on a fire pit.

Now that Ling Shuang, who can quell Ma Xiaotao's evil fire, has arrived, Cai Meier is naturally overjoyed.

"Mei'er, please bring Young Master Ling in first."

Yan Shaozhe's voice came through.

Ling Shuang's identity was far too sensitive, so he didn't tell anyone about this except Cai Meier, not even his teacher Mu En.

He and Cai Meier made up a reason to come out this time, and Ma Xiaotao was secretly transferred out.

After all, if others were to discover Ling Shuang's arrival, it would certainly cause some trouble.

It wasn't that Yan Shaozhe didn't trust her colleagues; it was that she simply wasn't willing to gamble with Ma Xiaotao's safety.

Yan Shaozhe had no energy to deal with these troubles at the moment; his only thought was to save Ma Xiaotao.

Now, Ma Xiaotao is suffering from the backlash of the evil fire and is on the verge of death. If there is any delay, she may lose her life. Yan Shaozhe would never joke about her life.

"Yes, yes, Young Master Ling, please come in quickly."

Cai Meier realized this as well and nodded repeatedly, inviting Ling Shuang into the room.

After Ling Shuang entered the room, Cai Meier looked around again and, finding that no one was paying attention, quickly closed the door.

Ling Shuang understood their reaction quite well, since going to Shrek Academy now would indeed be a fight to the death.

To be honest, the next generation of Shrek Academy students were all thoroughly beaten up by him.

Huo Yuhao, the successor of Mu En, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, even teetered on the brink of life and death because of him.

If it weren't for Tang San's secret intervention, he would probably have already died at Tang San's hands.

Ignoring these details, Ling Shuang went straight to the inner room.

Yan Shaozhe sat on a chair in the room.

The once spirited Dean of the Martial Soul Academy now looked visibly weary, likely because of Ma Xiaotao's situation.

Yan Shaozhe may have had some self-interest in wanting Ma Xiaotao to get close to Ling Shuang, but he genuinely treated Ma Xiaotao as his own daughter.

"Young Master Ling!"

Upon seeing Ling Shuang arrive, Yan Shaozhe quickly stood up and pulled her to Ma Xiaotao's bedside.

At this point, Yan Shaozhe no longer cared about the superficial formalities he usually enjoyed.

Ling Shuang was not offended by his abrupt behavior. He has never been a pretentious person and knows what is most important at this time.

Ling Shuang's gaze fell on Ma Xiaotao, who was lying on the bed next to her.

At this moment, Ma Xiaotao was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her face contorted in pain.

Her pretty face was already deathly pale, and her forehead was covered in a dense layer of cold sweat.

Her small hands, tightly gripping the blanket, further demonstrated the pain she was enduring as she succumbed to the torment of lustful desire.

A gentle layer of soul power covered Ma Xiaotao's body.

It comes from the soul power of Yan Shaozhe's Bright Phoenix.

Although the soul power of the Bright Phoenix could not help Ma Xiaotao get rid of the evil fire, the light attribute within it could at least make her feel a little better.

This was the only thing Yan Shaozhe could do.

He had to at least ensure that Ma Xiaotao didn't run into any problems before Ling Shuang arrived.
