Chapter 68 Awakening

Upon entering the room, Feng Zixi immediately took a shower. After showering, she lay sprawled on the double bed, looking at Gu Yue with expectant eyes…

Gu Yue blushed slightly and went into the bathroom with her clothes.

A full hour passed before Gu Yue emerged from the bathroom, fully dressed. Feng Zixi's expectant gaze instantly dimmed. Ah... there's absolutely no difference before and after the shower...

I don't need any special bathrobes, but at least something cool to wear, right?

Gu Yue sat on the bed and pinched Feng Zixi's nose. "What are you thinking about?!"

Seeing Feng Zixi's utterly dejected expression, Gu Yue blushed even more, gently leaned down and kissed Feng Zixi's cheek, saying, "We're still young, at least we should be grown up by now..."

Feng Zixi's eyes instantly became more complex. He hadn't originally planned to take the final step now. According to the physical development of humans in the Douluo Continent, this age was feasible, but... it was too much torture, he couldn't bear it...

He pulled Gu Yue into his arms and whispered, "Go to sleep!"

Gu Yue lay in Feng Zixi's arms. She wasn't very sleepy at first, but drowsiness gradually overcame her. She snuggled closer to Feng Zixi and fell asleep while holding him.

The two slept soundly, and didn't even go out when Wu Changkong summoned Class Zero for a meeting. They slept straight through until dawn the next day.

As the sun rose, Gu Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly. After a while, she opened her big eyes and looked at Feng Zixi's sleeping face. She was a little confused, but slowly came back to her senses.

I... I actually slept in the same bed with someone else for one night? So embarrassing...

Under Gu Yue's gaze, Feng Zixi slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Gu Yue's rosy cheeks, and Feng Zixi took a bite.

"Ugh..." Gu Yue shook her head, shoving Feng Zixi away. "What are you doing?"

What do you think?

"Tch, you scoundrel!" Gu Yue calmed down, rolled her eyes at Feng Zixi, ignored her, and got up to straighten her clothes.

Although I went to bed fully clothed last night, Feng Zixi is a restless sleeper and left her clothes all messed up...

"Let's go out and have some fun today..." Feng Zixi said lazily, lying on the bed.

"No, I need to cultivate!" Gu Yue refused Feng Zixi without hesitation. Although she also wanted to go out and play with Feng Zixi, Feng Zixi's cultivation was progressing too fast, even as she gradually broke the seal, she couldn't keep up. In order not to be left behind by Feng Zixi, Gu Yue cultivated whenever she had time.

Alright... Now that she's in Shrek City, Feng Zixi isn't in a hurry to find a place to sign in; she's going to spend the day drawing comics.

When Feng Zixi first arrived in Shrek City, she collected one sign-in opportunity each at the train station and the hotel. The rewards weren't valuable—just materials like Sweet Flowers. Feng Zixi had almost forgotten how many of those things she had in her inventory…

Three days later, when Wu Changkong took Tang Wulin to the auction to bid for the Thousand-Year Green Vein Vine, Feng Zixi followed them using her Thousand Winds Avatar and signed in at the auction.

After returning from the auction, Tang Wulin went to Feng Zixi and Gu Yue's room, hugged Feng Zixi, and began to complain. He said that he could have bought the item for six million earlier, but he ended up spending more than seven million, wasting both time and money...

Feng Zixi comforted Tang Wulin for quite a while. If Gu Yue hadn't conjured a fireball that fused wind and fire elements, Tang Wulin probably would have stayed snuggled in Feng Zixi's arms a little longer...

After leaving Feng Zixi's room, Tang Wulin returned to his own room and began to break through the seal on the Golden Dragon King's bloodline.

A surge of powerful bloodline energy emanated from Tang Wulin's room next door.

Gu Yue, who was cultivating, suddenly opened her eyes, her expression somewhat complicated. She hadn't expected... that she, a human, could actually absorb the Golden Dragon King's bloodline essence...

The thought of the resurgence of soul beasts emanated a calm killing intent.

Feng Zixi stopped drawing a comic and said casually, "Wu Lin's blood energy fluctuations are really powerful... I really wonder who her parents are. Logically speaking... Wu Lin's parents should be peerless experts..."

Gu Yue glanced at Feng Zixi with some suspicion. Feng Zixi was engrossed in his painting, as if he hadn't been the one who had spoken just now.

"However... this fluctuation of qi and blood is quite dangerous. If it were to erupt accidentally, Wu Lin would be in danger. But judging from Wu Lin's appearance, he should be able to control it..." Feng Zixi smacked her lips.

Gu Yue understood. Zi Xi was... reminding her that Tang Wulin had someone backing him?

Gu Yue was somewhat confused, but... even without Feng Zixi's reminder, Gu Yue wouldn't have gone so far as to kill Tang Wulin. At least not now! As for the future... who can say what will happen in the future?

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, but... Tang Wulin was still absorbing the medicinal properties.

As in the original story, Wu Changkong eventually bowed down to Shrek Academy and to his master.

Feng Zixi watched Wu Changkong's departing figure and sighed heavily. Wu Changkong had set aside his principles for Tang Wulin's sake...

Was Wu Changkong wrong about what happened more than a decade ago? No! Any man in his shoes would probably have made the same choice as Wu Changkong... However, as it turns out, his decision did him no good at all.

Feng Zixi knew that her master's wife, Long Bing, had her life predetermined from birth; her life was destined to be a tragedy. However... after meeting Wu Changkong, she gained a touch of color in her tragic life that she shouldn't have had.

Feng Zixi casually set up a wind element barrier in Tang Wulin's room and picked up her paintbrush to continue drawing her comic.

Feng Zixi had already confirmed that Tang Wulin was a girl, and the barrier she set up was only to guard against Xie Xie.

After finishing drawing today's goal, Feng Zixi put down her paintbrush and stretched.

Shrek Academy can be considered the center of destiny in the entire world of "Douluo Continent". From the time of Tang San to the current era of Dragon King Legend, Shrek Academy has played an extremely important role.

Feng Zixi wasn't worried about failing to get into Shrek Academy. After all, with her abilities, she could easily become a teacher, let alone a student.

As a place where luck gathers, Feng Zixi was quite looking forward to what she could get from signing in at Shrek Academy. In Genshin Impact, the only things Feng Zixi was really looking forward to were the Dust Jar and character summons.

Suddenly, Feng Zixi raised an eyebrow. Oh? Wu Lin is awake?!

Tang Wulin took a quick shower as soon as he woke up, and was pulled away by Shen Yi as soon as he stepped out the door.

Then the group boarded Shen Yi's car in a grand procession and sped off towards Shrek Academy.
