Zhu Zhuqing frowned as she looked at the scene in front of her.
Ning Rongrong was being supported by her, her bright cyan eyes scanning the surroundings, seemingly searching for someone.
But the figure she hoped to see was nowhere in sight.
Those bright cyan eyes dimmed slightly, the rims red.
You liar… where have you gone?
Ning Rongrong's heart was filled with worry.
Beside her, Meng Shu frowned, observing the group of people who had suddenly appeared before him.
He asked coldly,"Who are you people?"
Seeing Tang San land safely, Oscar didn't hesitate and immediately fed him his sausage.
Zhao Wuji exhaled in relief.
But the nearby Soul Masters made him remain cautious.
He turned his head and bowed respectfully:"Senior Longgong, I am Zhao Wuji of the Immovable King. This child is my student."
"Oh? Immovable King. Perfect timing!"
Upon seeing Zhao Wuji's soul rings and Martial Soul, Meng Shu nodded coldly.Then, his expression hardened as he launched his accusation:"Your student startled the Spirit Beast I had prepared for my granddaughter. How do you explain this?"
Zhao Wuji's expression turned strange.
He quickly pieced together the general course of events.
He hadn't expected that Meng Shu still didn't know that his granddaughter's soul ring had already been obtained. By now, it had probably already been absorbed.
Zhao Wuji glanced at Tang San, then leaned toward Longgong.
"Senior, may I have a word with you in private?"
Longgong furrowed his brow.
The cultivation of a Soul Douluo made him feel confident and fearless.
He tapped his Dragon Staff, instantly moving over twenty meters to the side.
Seeing this, Zhao Wuji hurried to follow.
A gentle smile appeared on his face—completely different from how he had behaved toward Chao Tianxiang.
No one knew exactly what Zhao Wuji had said to Meng Shu.
After learning that his granddaughter's soul ring was secure, Meng Shu's initial surprise turned into shock as he looked at Tang San.
There was no reason for Zhao Wuji to lie about Tang San's background.
Even if it were false, Meng Shu would not dare gamble with it. Once convinced that Tang San's injuries were unrelated to him, he quickly left.
Having seen off Longgong and Meng Shu,
Tang San gradually regained consciousness under Oscar's persistent feeding of large sausages.
"How do you feel, Tang San?"
Zhao Wuji held him carefully in his arms, his face full of concern.
"Teacher Zhao…?"
Tang San could only croak hoarsely, his throat burning and body aching. The most painful part, however, was his most precious treasure.
Recalling the events after being pierced by the Human-Faced Demon Spider and stuck to the tree, Tang San's heart filled with panic and fear. He hurriedly asked,"Teacher Zhao, my… it… is it okay? Is it alright?"
"Don't worry, Xiao San. With my sausages, your injuries have been stabilized."
Oscar squatted down, wiping the sweat from his brow.
He had almost exhausted himself to meet Tang San's needs, and now the sausages he made were noticeably thinner.
As he spoke, Oscar casually fed another sausage into Tang San's mouth.
"Xiao San, though the right one was pierced, as long as you keep eating my sausages during this period, even if it doesn't fully heal, your injury won't worsen. Once we get out, we can have someone treat it properly, and there shouldn't be any serious aftereffects."
Hearing Oscar's words, Tang San breathed a half-believing sigh of relief.
Recalling the old man he had seen before losing consciousness, he wished he could tear him to pieces.
Ning Rongrong, sitting against a tree to rest, quickly rushed over when Tang San woke up. Anxiety in her voice, she asked,"Tang San, where's Ye Qiu? Did you see Ye Qiu?"
"Ye Qiu?!"
Tang San paused, thinking for a moment, then shook his head blankly.
His body shifted, and the lingering pain in his right side made it impossible to focus. He grimaced, face contorted in pain.
"How could this be? He clearly went out after him too…"
Ning Rongrong's pale face was filled with worry.
That idiot… he had been knocked away with just one slap, why chase after him?
They had promised to help each other.
Her heart was full of resentment, but she did not give up, urgently saying,"Teacher Zhao, let's hurry and go find Ye Qiu!"
Zhao Wuji remained silent.
Venturing further into this area was already dangerous, and Tang San was injured.
Recovering Tang San alone was already a stroke of luck for Shrek Academy.
As for Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu, it was merely unfortunate. They had experienced losses before in soul hunting expeditions; otherwise, many students would not remain ungraduated.
Even so, Zhao Wuji couldn't help but sigh. He hadn't expected that this trip might result in the loss of the two most talented students in Shrek's history.
Shaking his head, Zhao Wuji said gravely,"We cannot go any further. Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu's lives are uncertain. I will not let any of you be harmed!"
"What?!"
Ning Rongrong's face turned pale, her steps faltering.
Zhao Wuji's tone shifted.
"Although we will not go deeper, we will search around here for Ye Qiu. At the same time, we can hunt souls for Oscar and Tang San."
This was the best he could do.
If they encountered a strong Soul Beast again, it would be even more brutal than the Titan Giant Ape incident.
"Rongrong, you must believe Ye Qiu will be fine."
Zhu Zhuqing held Ning Rongrong in her arms, softly comforting her.
For some reason, she had strong confidence in Ye Qiu. He had been so mysterious, even ensuring safety against the Titan Giant Ape—he certainly would not just vanish.
Without exaggeration, Zhu Zhuqing owed Ye Qiu her life.
"Hunting souls?"
Tang San's expression was dazed as he struggled to sit up, looking around.
"My soul rings? Where did that Human-Faced Demon Spider go?"
"Xiao San, what Human-Faced Demon Spider?" Dai Mubai looked around, finally focusing on Tang San. "When we arrived here, we only saw you hanging from the tree and an old man with a long staff. Where did a soul ring come from?"
"Yeah, maybe you're mistaken?" Ma Hongjun nodded in agreement. Perhaps Tang San had experienced a fierce battle, as the sticky webs on him proved, but claiming victory? Ma Hongjun didn't believe it.
Who gets shot up in a tree after killing a Spirit Beast?!
"How could this be? I clearly remember… I killed that Human-Faced Demon Spider." Tang San's mind was foggy, but the memory of the battle was vivid. He had never been so humiliated.
Zhao Wuji explained, "Tang San, you must be mistaken. That old man was Meng Yiran's grandfather. According to him, the Human-Faced Demon Spider fled in that direction."
"Mistaken?" Tang San was filled with doubt.
For a moment, he seemed to remember: when his containment bag had ruptured, he saw the Human-Faced Demon Spider leaving—but it hadn't died and even threw hidden weapons?!
Tang San felt dazed, as if his memory was muddled.
Before he could think further, Zhao Wuji decided they could not linger; the smell of blood might attract other Soul Beasts. He immediately instructed,"Everyone, leave here and find a safe place to rest."
"Teacher Zhao, I want to ask…"
Tang San struggled to sit up, cold sweat streaming down. He didn't mention Xiao Wu but asked Zhao Wuji and Meng Shu if they had seen or heard anything else.
He still had lingering doubts.
How could a spider use hidden weapons?He had clearly smashed its legs with a hammer… how could it disappear?He had risked half his life for that Human-Faced Demon Spider, almost sacrificing his future. If he didn't figure this out, he wouldn't be satisfied!
...
After a while,
Shrek Academy's group set off again.
Tang San lay on a bumpy stretcher carried by Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
Looking up at the sky,
He pondered the doubts in his mind. For some reason, he always felt that Ye Qiu was the one causing him trouble…
Yet he could find no reason, no clue, nothing.
Whether from sorrow or pain,
Tang San's face twitched, and two clear tears slid down his cheeks.
Sorry, Xiao Wu.
Once I grow stronger, I will avenge you!
Those evil Spirit Beasts… damn them!
Nearby, Oscar saw that Tang San seemed about to bleed again onto his pants, so he quickly stuffed another sausage into his mouth.
