Chapter 157 Xiao Wu Returns!

high in the air.

Ling Han, with Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er's slender waists in his arms, was flying at a leisurely pace.

Wang Dong'er seemed to have thought of something, and looked up at Ling Han with a grin, asking, "Husband, where did you take that green-haired guy?"

Ling Han smiled slightly, a hint of amusement and malice in his smile: "It's nothing, I just saw that he was too angry today, so I found him a place to 'cool down' and let him experience some 'pleasure'."

Wang Dong'er seemed to understand but not quite, but looking at her husband's smile, she knew it couldn't be anything good. So she giggled and said, "My husband is so naughty~ But, to deal with such an annoying guy, being naughty is only right!"

Ling Han imagined the "wonderful" situation Tang San might be facing right now, and his mood became increasingly cheerful, his smile deepening. 'Tang San, Tang San, I hope you'll like this "grand gift." We'll play this game slowly…'

....................................

On the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Zhao Wuji, enduring the excruciating pain from his broken left arm and the dull ache in his chest, led the still-shaken Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun, making a hurried and disheveled journey towards the edge of the forest.

Fear lingered on everyone's face, and the atmosphere was so oppressive it was almost suffocating. Zhao Wuji's face was ashen, his heart filled with regret, lingering fear, and a deep sense of powerlessness.

He, the mighty Immovable King, couldn't even protect his own student and could only watch helplessly as Tang San was taken away and humiliated. This was an utter disgrace!
Just then, the bushes ahead rustled, and a petite figure darted out like a startled deer, almost bumping into Zhao Wuji.

"Who?!" Zhao Wuji shouted like a startled bird, instinctively shielding the four students behind him. He clenched his fist with his one arm, even though the action aggravated his injury, causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.

"Teacher Zhao? It's you?!" The person who arrived exclaimed in surprise, her voice clear but with a hint of urgency. It was Xiao Wu, who had rushed over to join them.

Xiao Wu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw the scene before her, her pink eyes widened instantly.

Teacher Zhao Wuji was covered in blood, and his left arm was bent at an extremely strange angle, clearly broken!

There was a clear footprint on the clothes on his chest, and he was weak and listless, clearly having suffered severe internal injuries.

Although Dai Laoda, Zhu Qing, Oscar, and Fatty were not seriously injured, they were all pale-faced and had evasive eyes, as if they had experienced something extremely terrifying.

Xiao Wu's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition gripped her instantly. Her anxious gaze swept quickly across the crowd, again and again.

No! There's no sign of Third Brother!

Xiao Wu's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and her petite body began to tremble uncontrollably.

She looked up, her once bright and lively eyes now filled with terror and disbelief, her voice trembling as she looked at Zhao Wuji: "Teacher Zhao...you...your injuries...how did this happen? What happened?"

"Where's my third brother? Where did Tang San go? Why isn't he in the group?"

A barrage of questions shot out like bullets, and Xiao Wu's voice grew increasingly urgent, tinged with tears.

She already knew the answer in her heart. The fact that Teacher Zhao was so badly injured and that everyone was so terrified must be related to the disappearance of her third brother, but she was unwilling to believe it.

Zhao Wuji was speechless when Xiao Wu asked him a question. The muscles on his rugged face twitched, a mixture of shame, regret, and anger making him unable to look directly into Xiao Wu's pure yet fearful eyes.

He opened his mouth, his lips trembling for a long time, but he only managed a few meaningless "uh... ah..." sounds, which eventually turned into a heavy, powerless sigh, and he slumped down. This action undoubtedly confirmed Xiao Wu's worst guess.

"Third Brother... Third Brother, has he... been captured by the Spirit Hall?!" Xiao Wu's voice became shrill, tears instantly filling her eyes and rolling down her cheeks like broken pearls. "Is it?! Teacher Zhao, say something!"

Seeing that Zhao Wuji remained silent and acquiescing, Xiao Wu suddenly grabbed Zhao Wuji's intact right arm and pleaded, sobbing uncontrollably, "Teacher Zhao! We can't abandon Third Brother!"

"We have to go back and find him! Please! Let's go back and look for him! He must still be in the forest! Maybe he's waiting for us to rescue him, Teacher Zhao!"

Oscar and Ma Hongjun also looked reluctant, while Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, a hint of struggle flashing in their eyes.

Although they were afraid, abandoning their companions was not the style of Shrek Academy.

As Zhao Wuji listened to Xiao Wu's desperate pleas and looked at her tear-streaked face, and then thought of Tang San's humiliated and helpless eyes when he was taken away, the regret in his heart and the fighting spirit of a strongman were finally aroused.

He stomped his foot so hard the ground trembled slightly. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his one arm, his voice hoarse but firm: "Damn it! I'm a coward! Let's go! Go back and find him! Even if it costs me my life, I have to find that brat Tang San!"

Just as everyone was filled with grief and indignation and was preparing to turn around and risk returning to the depths of the forest, a rustling sound came from the bushes ahead again, accompanied by extremely weak panting.

Everyone instantly became alert. Zhao Wuji once again shielded the students behind him, nervously staring at the bushes.

The next moment, a figure stumbled and tumbled out of the bushes, falling heavily to the ground.

When they saw the person's face clearly, everyone gasped!
That's Tang San! But at this moment, he looks a thousand times more wretched than a beggar!
His clothes were almost tattered rags, hanging haphazardly on his body, and his exposed skin was covered with light scratches and bruises, as if he had been dragged and rubbed on the ground for a long distance.

His face was as pale as paper, his lips were cracked, his eyes were unfocused, and he was filled with extreme exhaustion and... an indescribable fear and humiliation.

Most strikingly, his short hair had turned an extremely eye-catching emerald green!
The eerie color made him look even stranger and more miserable.

"Third Brother!!" Xiao Wu cried out in heart-wrenching sobs and rushed forward first.

Her heart broke when she saw Tang San's tattered clothes, clearly indicating that he had suffered inhuman treatment! She couldn't imagine what her third brother had gone through!
Tang San raised his head with difficulty, his unfocused gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Xiao Wu, who was rushing towards him.

Seeing that Xiao Wu was safe and sound, a faint glimmer of relief finally flashed in his eyes. His chapped lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but he could only let out a few breathy sounds.

Then, his head tilted to the side, and finally his tense nerves completely relaxed, and he passed out completely.

It took almost all of his willpower to manage to escape here and see Xiao Wu.

"Third Brother!!" Xiao Wu held the unconscious Tang San, crying so hard she could barely breathe.

When Zhao Wuji saw that Tang San was in a terrible state but did not seem to have any fatal injuries, he was initially relieved, but then immediately tensed up again!
He cautiously surveyed the dense forest around him, fearing that the demon-like figure in blue and the two beautiful yet terrifyingly powerful women might suddenly appear.

"We can't stay here any longer! Let's go!" Zhao Wuji roared, no longer caring about his own injuries. He used his one arm to hoist the unconscious Tang San onto his broad but injured back, and urgently shouted to the other students, "Go! Leave the Star Dou Great Forest immediately! Return to the academy at full speed!"

He was terrified that Ling Han would change his mind and catch up again. That was someone they simply couldn't contend with!
