CHAPTER 347: CHAPTER 347: GU YUENA’S LITTLE LOYAL FOLLOWER

"What... what... what...?"

Xu Sanshi was dumbfounded, staring at Jiang Nannan in disbelief, then glanced over at Gu Yuena.

Both of these women were stunning beauties—how could it be...?

Wouldn’t that be such a waste?

Xu Sanshi thought in a rather shameless way.

Gu Yuena glanced coldly at Xu Sanshi, then draped an arm around Jiang Nannan’s shoulders.

Turning to Jiang Nannan, she deliberately wore an ambiguous smile, scrutinizing Jiang Nannan’s pretty face as she said, "Got a problem with that?"

Xu Sanshi’s mouth twitched fiercely."I... you guys... this is..."

Stammering for a long moment, Xu Sanshi slammed a hand on his forehead, his whole demeanor darkening. He scanned the area and sighed deeply.

Bending forward like a defeated dog, he left.

Taking three steps forward, he kept looking back longingly.

He had originally planned to say some flirty lines or try to hassle them some more.

But instinctively, he dared not.

Those women looked way too cold...

So cold that he had the feeling if he showed his usual playboy self, he would definitely get annihilated!

After Xu Sanshi’s retreating figure disappeared, Jiang Nannan breathed a sigh of relief but still lay on Gu Yuena’s shoulder, clinging like a little bird.

"Hey, hey, hey! He’s gone! You should get down now!"

Zi Ji tugged Jiang Nannan’s arm, sounding annoyed.

She herself had hardly ever leaned on her sister’s shoulder—how could she allow this woman to take advantage?

Jiang Nannan’s cheeks flushed slightly as she bowed deeply to Gu Yuena. Her bright, large eyes shimmered with tearful allure that could captivate souls.

It was hard not to feel pity for her.

And looking at Gu Yuena, her gaze was timid, mixed with a little plea and flattery.

Dan Heng raised an eyebrow, inexplicably sensing a hint of threat in the girl’s eyes.

Was she trying to steal his wife?!

Gu Yuena chuckled softly, hugging Dan Heng’s arm and resting her head on his chest.

Her recently fierce and heroic posture instantly softened.

"Little girl, I already have a husband."

Jiang Nannan instantly blushed, clutching her wavy long hair, feeling guilty and not daring to meet Dan Heng’s and the others’ eyes.

Her little secret was exposed!

From the moment she saw Gu Yuena, she had fallen for her.

Was there really such a beautiful person in the world?

But now it was basically a direct rejection...

Zi Ji slyly sidled up to Jiang Nannan, bending down and tilting her head, looking suspiciously at Jiang Nannan’s flushed face.

"Why are you blushing? Got something to hide?"

Jiang Nannan was startled, took two steps back, nearly stumbled, and waved her hands.

"N-no... you’ve got it wrong..."

Zi Ji put her hands on her hips and pressed in, following Jiang Nannan.

"What do you mean wrong? I haven’t even said anything yet!"

Jiang Nannan opened her mouth but caught herself—oh no, she was revealing her true feelings.

She simply squatted down and covered her face, saying nothing more.

"Zi Ji..." Gu Yuena frowned lightly.

This little dragon really got itchy when left unpunished for a day.

Zi Ji held Longlong close to her chest and chuckled, "Sister, I’m just worried someone’s got their eyes on you. Look at that face—it’s obviously a little fox spirit!"

"..." Gu Yuena glanced at Zi Ji gloomily.

If anyone here looked like a fox spirit, body-wise it would be Zhu Zhuqing without a doubt.

But if you counted face as well, then the seductive and enchanting Zi Ji was truly the one who could lure men’s deepest desires.

"Zi Ji, that’s too much..." Bi Ji whispered.

"Apologize." Gu Yuena said calmly.

Zi Ji immediately lifted her nose, glared at Bi Ji, and snorted, "Did you hear that, Bi Ji? Sister wants you to apologize to me!"

"???" Bi Ji looked at Zi Ji with some sympathy.

Clearly she had an enchanting, cold beauty face that didn’t lose out to anyone, but why was her brain so useless?

"Apologize to Jiang Nannan." Zhu Zhuqing reminded her.

Zi Ji went "Ah!" in surprise, looked doubtfully at Gu Yuena, clearly unwilling but dared not defy, and quickly muttered an apology.

It took less than a second.

Everyone only heard a soft "hmmph."

Before Gu Yuena could say more, Zi Ji quickly said, "Sister, we should head to Shrek Academy now and turn their world upside down! Teach them a lesson!"

"Huh? You’re going to cause trouble at Shrek Academy?"

Jiang Nannan suddenly revealed her true feelings, surprised.

"What? You have a problem with that?"

Zi Ji sneered.

"I... I’m a student at Shrek Academy. Are you... serious? Shrek Academy is very powerful..."

Jiang Nannan hesitated, looking at them—especially Gu Yuena.

Because she was part of Shrek Academy, she knew how strong the school really was!

And it was supported by the entire power of the Xingluo Empire.

Even the Spirit Hall might not be able to suppress Shrek Academy reliably.

If they wanted to mess with Shrek Academy, they were basically inviting disaster...

"Sister, why don’t we just tie her up and make her our guide?"

Zi Ji pointed at Jiang Nannan.

"Shut up." Gu Yuena shot a glare at Zi Ji.

"Nannan..."

A weak voice suddenly sounded.

Jiang Nannan looked toward the voice and saw Tang Ya standing behind the crowd.

Tang Ya was a little tagalong who fell behind with Huo Yuhao, barely noticeable. Jiang Nannan hadn’t seen her earlier.

Tang Ya ran to the front and held Jiang Nannan’s hand.

"Teacher, Nannan is my good bestie. Nannan, this is my teacher Zi Ji..."

Tang Ya introduced her.

Surprise flickered in Jiang Nannan’s eyes.

Since Tang Ya was traveling with them, she must know the power of Shrek Academy and still want to be enemies.

At least this meant their strengths weren’t too far apart!

"Xiao Ya, then let’s just go. See how Shrek teaches now and what’s changed from before?"

Gu Yuena said calmly.

"Okay, madam..." Tang Ya respectfully replied.

At Shrek Academy, on the outer campus near the large playground by the entrance.

Under the hot sun, a class was doing physical training. The team was scattered; every student was drenched in sweat, body bent over, moving mechanically.

Dan Heng’s family stopped and watched.

Jiang Nannan’s face turned pale as if recalling some terrible memory.

"That’s the perverted old hag’s class!"

Jiang Nannan shuddered and said, "Students who fall under her control are doomed."

"Perverted old hag? Hahaha... What kind of teacher names do you guys have at your school?"

Zi Ji laughed loudly.

Tang Ya explained, "The teacher’s name is Zhou Yi. She teaches very strictly and once expelled nine students in a single day... She uses a last-place elimination system that pressures students heavily. That’s why students under her care gave her that nickname. However, students trained by her are generally stronger than their peers."

Zi Ji frowned, displeased."Better than your teacher’s standards?"

Tang Ya immediately shook her head, laughing."Of course not. No matter how tough Zhou Yi is, even the strongest teachers at Shrek Academy can’t match my teacher."

Zi Ji instantly perked up happily, smugly declaring,"Of course! I’m definitely better than any teacher at Shrek Academy!"

Jiang Nannan looked at Tang Ya with some sympathy.Having such a teacher—she wasn’t sure if Tang Ya was being threatened!

And Tang Ya was even saying things against her own feelings just to please her teacher.

That was very disappointing!

"Husband, what do you think of their education methods?"

Gu Yuena asked softly.

Dan Heng shook his head slightly, not wanting to say much.

Their educational system wasn’t even as good as the ancient Lanba Academy from ten thousand years ago—it was the same old Shrek approach.

Completely a "killing chickens to get eggs" style of teaching...

Of course, if nutrition could keep up, it could barely be acceptable.

Repeatedly pushing limits, improving fast, but without exhausting their essence.

Gu Yuena snorted softly and shook her head:"Having a treasure mountain but losing watermelons while picking up sesame seeds. This kind of training is too much and yet not enough..."

Jiang Nannan immediately agreed."Yes, Sister Na, many teachers in the academy also disapprove of Zhou Yi’s methods and prefer the traditional Shrek teaching plan."

Tang Ya looked at Jiang Nannan suspiciously.These two girls were way too diligent—were they trying too hard?

In front of Dan Heng, they couldn’t even hide their "loyal follower" act!

"I thought Shrek Academy was so great, but this is their level? Zhu Zhuqing alone could beat all of them without her martial soul."

Zi Ji scoffed.

"If it’s Senior Zhuqing, definitely!" Tang Ya nodded earnestly.Having personally experienced Zhu Zhuqing’s "terrifying" strength, she knew the other was from a completely different level!

Jiang Nannan’s mouth twitched hard as she looked at Tang Ya in disbelief.

Such a sycophant!!!Both of them were top goddesses from outside, with countless followers.

But how had Tang Ya also turned into a sycophant in just half a month of absence?

"Sir, I can’t pretend I didn’t hear that."

A cold voice suddenly came from beneath a tree on the other side.

Everyone turned to look.

They saw a tall woman in a silver uniform walking over with a serious expression.

"It’s... Teacher Zhou Yi!" Tang Ya exclaimed.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, feeling quite embarrassed. She had been gossiping about others behind their backs, but it was overheard!

Zi Ji sized up Zhou Yi from head to toe and asked suspiciously:

"You little girl, how did you end up like this? Aging before your time?"

...

Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan’s mouths both twitched slightly.

Zi Ji’s mouth!

Truly, it could offend someone to death.

Of course, as an ancient being who had lived countless tens of thousands of years, it was not surprising for Zi Ji to say such things.

The problem was, Zi Ji now wore a young and beautiful face, which made it not very convincing.

More like a kind of contempt toward Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was momentarily stunned, not reacting immediately.

Originally, she was a young and beautiful woman who wore a human-skin mask for teaching convenience.

But being spoken to like that by Zi Ji made her very angry!

Wasn’t that seriously underestimating her?!

Zi Ji continued:

"You’re a teacher at Shrek Academy? Perfect, then take us to see your dean. We have business to discuss with him."

Zhou Yi snorted coldly and said calmly, "Want to see our dean? But our dean isn’t someone just anyone can meet."

Zi Ji narrowed her eyes, staring at Zhou Yi’s face.

"Oh? You’re quite temperamental, huh?"

"My favorite thing is to teach little brats who don’t know better a lesson..."

"Sis, can I just bulldoze through and turn Shrek Academy upside down?"

Zi Ji asked.

"No."

Zi Ji was stunned, then reluctantly asked, "Why? They dared to occupy our stuff, how can we just let them go? Not saying kill them all, but at least we shouldn’t..."

Gu Yuena gave her a cold glance but said nothing.

Nonsense. A mere little dragon like Zi Ji wanted an explanation from her?

Zi Ji dared not provoke and just hugged Zhou Yi’s shoulders, stomping her foot.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you, sis. So shall we go right now?"

Zhou Yi, being held by Zi Ji, suddenly shrank her pupils at their conversation. They came to cause trouble for Shrek?

She immediately tried to unleash her soul power but was instantly suppressed.

Completely unable to break free from Zi Ji’s hold!

This woman, who looked a bit like a rival in style to Mu Jin, was unfathomably strong.

At least she completely overwhelmed Zhou Yi!

"Xiao Ya knows where the dean is, right? Let’s have Xiao Ya lead the way. Maybe we’ll get to see the two dragons here."

Gu Yuena said calmly.

"Yes! I can lead the way. Teacher, you can let go of Teacher Zhou Yi now, she looks like she’s in pain..." Tang Ya hurriedly pleaded.

"It’s nothing, I just felt an instant kinship with her and wanted to get close!"

Zi Ji grinned.

...

Jiang Nannan pursed her lips, looking at Gu Yuena with some worry.

Now Zi Ji was making a move on a teacher from Shrek Academy. This might really cause a huge mess in the end.

Would her goddess sister get dragged into this?

...

At the Xingluo Palace.

After escaping Xu Zi’s clutches, Beibei hurriedly ran here.

Inside the palace, Moon was instructing Xu Jiawei in cultivation. Moon was the Imperial Tutor with a lofty status in the empire.

Of course, Xu Jiawei also contributed to that reputation.

Because of Beibei’s great-grandson identity, she was brought in.

"Beibei, what happened?"

Moon asked curiously.

Beibei was sweating profusely, pale, and her soul power unstable. Just now, trying to break free from Xu Zi’s restraint, she had almost self-destructed.

Only then did Xu Zi release her, but he scolded her for "not joking around."

"Great-Grandpa! It’s like this..."

Beibei hurriedly explained everything from beginning to end. Just as she was about to emphasize the strength of Dan Heng’s family, worried Moon might doubt as Xu Zi did...

Moon let out a bitter smile and said, "Sigh, what’s meant to come will come..."

Beibei was stunned. Moon seemed to have other reasons?

Xu Jiawei curiously asked, "Teacher, what happened at Shrek Academy? If there’s any trouble, the Xingluo Empire will give full support."

"No one can help with this matter... but Your Majesty, you could send someone to witness."

Moon shook his head slightly, his mood low.

...

Meanwhile, at a certain Holy Spirit Cult base in Xingluo city, a figure in a gray robe entered, pulling back the hood to reveal a scruffy bearded face.

It was none other than Tang Hao!

At this moment, Tang Hao showed no trace of an evil soul master.

The evil soul masters nearby were stunned, suspecting he had come to wipe them out.

"I want you all to cooperate with me..."

Tang Hao said calmly.
