When Wang Yan brought Ling Luochen, Xi Xi, and Caitou and others to Star Luo City, Zhongli was slightly surprised.
These children were hanging their heads in dejection, their faces filled with sorrow, and their eyes even carried a trace of panic.
"Could it be that that matter still happened?"
Zhongli frowned slightly, muttering in his heart.
Although he had had some unpleasantness with the higher-ups of Shrek Academy, these children were innocent.
Zhongli could not target everyone in Shrek Academy because of those Shrek higher-ups with sick minds.
Of course, he could not always pay attention to the movements of Shrek Academy either, as it had nothing to do with him. As long as they were not a roadblock, he would not take it to heart.
"Tsk~"
After investigating, Zhongli found out the specific situation and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This... this really had nothing to do with the will of the world, it was their arrogance that harmed them!
The losses this time were even more severe than in the original timeline. Was it because Huo Yuhao was not present?
Of the Shrek Seven Monsters, two were dead, three were seriously injured, two were slightly injured, and of the substitutes, five were dead and two were unharmed.
If Xuan Zi was as irresponsible as in the original timeline, these children would probably end up completely annihilated.
"Flying to the heavens in a hundred years..."
Zhongli seemed to think of something and couldn't help but laugh.
If there were no accidents, he would not be able to ascend to the heavens!
These evil soul masters were hiding, waiting for him to ascend to the heavens in a hundred years, and then come out to continue their evil deeds...
Ascension was impossible, it was impossible to ascend in this lifetime.
As long as the evil soul masters dared to show their faces and commit evil, then... the people had suffered from the evil soul masters for a long time!
"Although I have no intention of competing for the throne, I know the suffering of the people!"
Zhongli's expression remained unchanged, but he had already made a decision in his heart.
"This beautiful land is too beautiful to be destroyed by others."
The scene changed to a second-rate hotel.
Wang Yan and others were hanging their heads in dejection, gathering together with sorrowful expressions.
After collecting their dead companions, they burned the cave and then came to Star Luo City.
Zhu Lu's expression was filled with sorrow, and the will to die was spreading.
The eldest son was crippled, which was originally a good thing for her. As long as Dai Huabin did not have an accident, she would definitely become the wife of the White Tiger Duke's mansion.
But... the eldest son was indeed crippled, but he was still alive, and the second son Dai Huabin was dead!
As Dai Huabin's fiancée, she should have died with Dai Huabin. Now that she was alive, neither the Dai family nor the Zhu family would let her go.
"What should I do?"
"What should I do?"
Zhu Lu didn't want to die, she really didn't want to die!
She was still so young, with a bright future ahead of her, how could she die so easily?
Her feelings for Dai Huabin were quite complicated. They were married by arrangement, and in her rigid impression, Dai Huabin was her future husband.
She liked him, but she really wanted to live!
Suddenly, as if she thought of something, a glimmer of hope flashed in Zhu Zhu Qing's eyes!
Now, there was only one place that could protect her.
"Liyue."
While Dai Yueheng was crippled and Dai Huabin's death had not yet spread, she had a chance to sneak to Liyue.
Once she reached Liyue, no one would dare to cause trouble in Liyue!
Even the Dai and Zhu families, including the Star Luo Empire, would not dare!
"Teacher Wang Yan, I need to go home."
Zhu Lu said to Wang Yan without changing her expression.
Hearing this, Wang Yan didn't think much about it. He knew Zhu Lu's identity.
Zhu Lu's home was also in Star Luo City.
"Go, don't delay the competition."
Wang Yan waved his hand and said casually.
He still hadn't come to his senses. The future of Shrek Academy was destroyed in an instant.
After getting Wang Yan's approval, Zhu Lu didn't show any abnormality and went straight to the hotel.
She didn't need to pack her luggage.
As the daughter of the Zhu family, she was not short of money, which was stored in her soul storage device.
The luggage in the room was not worth much and there was no need to pack.
Without any accident, Zhu Lu left Star Luo City in a short time. After leaving the city, she took out a mask from her soul storage device and put it on her face...
"God bless me to reach Liyue alive..."
Zhu Lu muttered, originally a prayer to make her feel better.
But faintly, she seemed to hear a gentle female voice: "Okay."
And in her mind, there was also a very perfect route, a route that led directly to Liyue.
Zhu Lu: "???"
Although puzzled, Zhu Lu still followed the route. Perhaps this was a blessing from the heart?
As for Zhu Lu's departure, Wang Yan, Caitou, Ling Luochen, and Xi Xi didn't feel anything wrong.
After such a big incident, it was normal for Zhu Lu to come back and report.
They also knew the rules of the White Tiger Duke's mansion and the Zhu family...
"Zhu Lu is pitiful."
Dai Huabin was dead, and Zhu Lu certainly had no way to survive. This farewell was probably the last time in this life.
The country has its laws, and the family has its rules. How Zhu Lu was, they couldn't control...
In the hotel where the Liyue contestants rested.
Several young men and women were discussing something.
"Brother Bei Bei, we found something strange!"
The speaker was not a Liyue contestant, but a substitute from the Sun Moon Empire, Xiao Hongchen.
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had stayed in Liyue for a long time, so they naturally knew each other.
Moreover, their relationship was very harmonious.
What if they were from the Sun Moon Empire? These were people recognized by the Martial God, so they certainly were not bad people.
"Oh, what did Brother Xiao find?"
Bei Bei was stunned and smiled.
What strange thing could make Xiao Hongchen so mysterious?
"Shrek Academy, you know, right?"
Bei Bei: "..."
He nodded without changing his expression and said, "Of course, the former number one academy on the continent, a group of self-righteous people."
"Yes, those self-righteous people!"
"I found that their personnel this time are a bit few!"
"???"
"Except for the leading teacher, the contestants who can compete are not even seven people, and they have no fighting spirit, it seems like something happened."
Hearing this, Bei Bei and Tang Ya looked at each other, a little confused.
Shrek Academy's contestants are not even seven people?
Impossible!
Anyone could leave, but the Shrek Seven Monsters would not leave, and there were also children from families who had been students of Shrek Academy for generations, who had received the kindness of Shrek, they would not leave.
How could they not even gather seven people?
There must be something wrong when they came.
Could it be that the old man led the team again?
Thinking of a possibility, Bei Bei broke out in a cold sweat.
The old man was loyal to Shrek Academy, but he could have died earlier and left a good name.
In recent years, because of this old man, Shrek Academy had suffered heavy losses!
Especially the previous generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters…
