Tang Wulin, you have already chosen your own death!

Tang Wulin sat to the side.

Seeing the people in the inner courtyard, who were in grave danger, surrounding Zhang Lexuan, their faces were full of gratitude.

Han Ruoruo, in particular, leaned against her senior sister's arms and cried her eyes out.

Zhang Lexuan didn't say anything, but gently patted her back.

Having taken the greatest risk, he's now trying to soothe his teammates' negative emotions.

The eldest sister appeared before everyone, and there was even a halo-like effect behind her.

"Goddess!"

"Senior Sister is so beautiful and gentle."

"I really want to marry her..."

"..."

Tang Wulin subconsciously avoided looking at Zhang Lexuan's gentle face.

Whenever I see her, I can't help but recall her earlier appearance as a seductive woman, a stark contrast to her earlier demeanor.

He felt that these thoughts were blasphemous to his senior sister, so he hurriedly shook his head to suppress them.

That's why Tang Wulin was completely unaware that Zhang Lexuan was actually secretly watching him, her calm black eyes filled with confusion.

Although the inner court students were severely injured, they were at least Soul Kings and recovered quite quickly.

Only Xu Sanshi is such an unlucky guy.

He foolishly held up the Xuanming Shield, and at the crucial moment, he blocked the crimson moonlight for Wu Ming.

Even with Elder Xuan's help, he is still unconscious, but fortunately he is only unconscious and has not been seriously injured.

Wu Ming felt very guilty and stayed by Xu Sanshi's side to take care of him.

After all, the task that Elder Xuan had given her was to take care of Xu Sanshi.

But in the end, Xu Sanshi, whom she considered a coward, actually saved her life at the last moment.

Wu Ming felt a mix of emotions.

But Tang Wulin's expression was strange when he saw this.

Bad thing!

Will Wu Ming and Xu Sanshi spark some kind of romance?

Shouldn't Xu Sanshi's partner be Jiang Nannan, the Demon Rabbit Douluo?

Ah, forget it.

Since he's already created the soul ahead of time, what's the point of being afraid of the world line changing?

let it go.

Just as Tang Wulin calmly accepted the truth.

"Tang Wulin!"

A sharp shout filled with suppressed anger rang out from behind her.

Tang Wulin felt a chill run down his spine and slowly turned around.

Ma Xiaotao was standing behind him, arms crossed, her pink eyes practically spitting fire.

Her face still had a slightly unnatural blush, whether from anger or some other reason, it was hard to tell.

"Sister Xiaotao..." Tang Wulin was about to speak.

Ma Xiaotao interrupted him directly, saying with dissatisfaction, "The 'method to save Senior Sister' you told me is to knock me out and then run back to play the hero?!"

This is dangerous, do you know that?!

Ma Xiaotao grew angrier the more she thought about it, and felt a sense of inexplicable grievance.

She was supposed to be protecting Tang Wulin, but instead she was knocked unconscious and thrown into a tree, like a burden.

I felt like a mischievous child, while he was much more mature and composed.

Just as she bit her lip and continued to question him.

Tang Wulin suddenly raised his hand.

This action made Ma Xiaotao's heart pound wildly!

Pfft!

Pfft!

What is he doing?

Could it be... that he's going to do what he did before?

Ma Xiaotao recalled the coldest and most domineering side of Tang Wulin when they were running away, how he treated her in the most brutal way.

Once the idea took hold, it became unstoppable.

Instead of feeling scared or angry, her cheeks flushed uncontrollably, her long legs came together, and her pert buttocks swayed slightly.

A hidden sense of anticipation, which made her feel ashamed, quietly welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Ma Xiaotao felt her breath become hotter.

She stood frozen in place, her pink eyes fixed on Tang Wulin's raised hand, her delicate body tense, yet she showed no intention of dodging.

However, Tang Wulin simply took Ma Xiaotao's hand gently.

She gave a slightly apologetic smile and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Xiaotao, I made you worry, but I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just wanted to save everyone as much as possible."

Don't feel guilty; after all, we all survived.

These words were spoken.

Ma Xiaotao felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water, which extinguished the expectation in her heart.

"Who, who's worried about you!" Instead, she acted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, pulling her arm back sharply, her cheeks flushed, and retorted loudly, "I was just worried about Senior Sister! I was afraid you'd act recklessly and ruin things, dragging everyone down with you!"

Besides, if you die, who will deal with my pent-up anger?

She remained stubborn for a moment.

A strong sense of loss welled up inside me, along with a strange feeling of emptiness.

Ma Xiaotao pursed her red lips slightly and muttered softly, "I'll settle the score with you when we get back!"

After saying that, she turned and walked away quickly.

However, from Tang Wulin's perspective, it looked more like a hasty retreat.

Looking at her shapely back, Tang Wulin frowned.

He looked down at his palm.

Sweat, so much sweat.

It's hot though, thankfully.

Why is Ma Xiaotao so agitated? I only touched her.

Tang Wulin suddenly remembered Gu Yue's smiling words when they were training together in the Spirit Pagoda on the eve of their journey to the Star Luo Empire.

"Girls have their period every month, so let's be understanding."

So, is Sister Xiaotao in those days now?

Tang Wulin thought to himself.

After a quick rest, the team members recovered rapidly.

Elder Xuan dared not linger in the Star Dou Great Forest, even though there were still a few students who had not yet encountered suitable spirit rings.

Dark Demon God Tiger, Pale King Faust, Blood Moon Wolf King...

There were just too many unexpected events.

He dared not take any more risks.

I'd rather do nothing than make a mistake.

So, after Han Ruoruo and the others had recovered about 70-80% of their condition.

Elder Xuan led everyone into the sky and sped towards Shrek Academy.

Zhang Lexuan was at the front of the group, second only to Elder Xuan.

Her brows furrowed slightly, her head ached a little, and blurry, chaotic images kept flashing through her mind.

Her last memory was of the last frame of the flashback before she fell into the Lake of Sorrowful Moon and lost consciousness.

It was a young man's face that was extremely similar to Tang Wulin's, but more mature and angular.

The scene flashed by, and even more intimate, blush-inducing moments seemed to flit through my mind.

However, it was too blurry for Zhang Lexuan to tell whether it was something that actually happened or a hallucination she experienced when she saw Tang Wulin's face on her deathbed.

Zhang Lexuan tried to stop herself from looking, but she couldn't help but glance at it.

A moment later, as she was gazing at Tang Wulin in a daze, she suddenly noticed another gaze.

Zhang Lexuan turned her head and met Ma Xiaotao's gaze, who was also stealing glances at Tang Wulin.

Their eyes met, and both of them froze.

Ma Xiaotao's face flushed red instantly. As if caught red-handed, she hurriedly turned her head away, pretending to look at the scenery.

Zhang Lexuan also looked away somewhat awkwardly, her fingertips unconsciously curling up slightly.

A subtle awkwardness filled the air.

Chapter 30 Moon: Young people just like to play tricks.

With Elder Xuan advancing at full speed, the group returned to Shrek Academy in less than half a day.

This was the first time in all these years that Moon had ever been this angry.

Xuanzi was thoroughly berated, and in this timeline, Zhang Lexuan's pleas for mercy were no longer present.

All of the Holy Spirit Cult's Supreme Elder's positions in the Sea God Pavilion and Shrek Academy were stripped away.

Of course, this was of no use to Xuanzi, who was like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.

He was happy to have some free time.

Finally, in a fit of anger, Mu En ordered Elder Xuan to stay away from the Sea God Pavilion until he could suppress his appetite.

No alcohol, no chicken legs, just a plate of bean sprouts a day.

This was cruel to Xuanzi, but it was actually a self-punishment of drinking three cups.

Mu En couldn't possibly take the life of Xuan Zi, a level 98 Super Douluo.

A symbolic punishment, to give everyone an explanation, and to further temper Xuanzi's character.

Then, Moon learned about the soul spirit and Faust, who had been devoured by Tang Wulin, but he wasn't particularly excited.

He simply sighed and said, "The future belongs to the young people."

After checking Tang Wulin's body and confirming that everything was alright, he smiled sincerely.

Mu En became increasingly convinced that Tang Wulin might be the chosen one, destined to protect Shrek Academy for the next hundred years.

As dusk fell and the Soul Hunt ended, the inner courtyard students, each with their own tasks, dispersed.

Zhang Lexuan was the only one who silently accompanied Old Master Mu until the very end.

"Wangwang!"

The Blood Moon Wolf King was still in the form of a puppy, panting and wagging its tail, circling around Mu En with a fawning expression.

Looking at the 100,000-year soul ring at Zhang Lexuan's feet, a hint of relief appeared on Mu En's aged face.
