Chapter 229 - Surely He Wasn't Caught Peeping While She Was Bathing?

Bonus Chapter. Enjoy!

============================

This Angel Spirit Master's name was Yue Zhengyu. Born into the Angel Family, he had always viewed Evil Soul Masters as enemies that must be eradicated.

In the Legacy of the Angel Martial Soul, an Evil Soul Master was darkness, was evil, and was an existence that must be purified.

Therefore, after discovering traces of a Fallen Angel in the academy, he never gave up his investigation, and today, he finally ran into one!

He was on the verge of completing his "mission" to slay the wicked Evil Soul Master.

To his surprise, he was interrupted by Huo Yuhao at this critical moment.

Although Huo Yuhao was only a first-year freshman, his fame had long since spread throughout the academy.

The Spirit Pagoda Young Genius List held a lot of weight in the hearts of these young boys and girls. They naturally paid extra attention to Huo Yuhao, the number one ranked "Spirit Transmitting" genius.

So Yue Zhengyu naturally recognized Huo Yuhao, and as he looked at him, a complex surge of emotions welled up in his heart.

He hadn't expected that even though Huo Yuhao was younger than him, the difference in their strength was so vast; he had been suppressed without even the power to fight back.

That crushing power and the suppression of that aura made him feel for the first time what it meant to be "invincible."

But now was not the time for such reflections!

He looked up at Huo Yuhao, his golden eyes filled with indignation.

He shouted, "Why are you attacking me? I'm dealing with an Evil Soul Master, and I'm the one who saved him."

The "him" Yue Zhengyu spoke of was naturally Xie Xie, who was currently beside Huo Yuhao. His tone carried grievance, accusation, and a certain indescribable resentment.

Huo Yuhao did not reply; his gaze moved past Yue Zhengyu to look at the distant sky.

Two figures were flying in from the distance at an astonishing speed, arriving before them in the blink of an eye. These were two middle-aged men, and one could tell from their clothing that they were academy teachers.

Their faces were solemn as their gazes scanned back and forth between the group, seemingly trying to figure out exactly what had happened here.

A moment later, one of the teachers scanned the surroundings and shouted with an unquestionable authority, "Go back to what you were doing, don't just stand around watching the excitement."

The words of a Shrek Academy teacher carried significant weight; upon hearing this, the spectating Students scattered like startled birds and beasts.

Only then did the teacher turn his gaze toward the "primary" Students involved and ask, "What exactly is going on?"

By now, Huo Yuhao had withdrawn his aura, and that majestic pressure receded like the tide.

Yue Zhengyu was the first to jump up and shout, "Reporting! I discovered an Evil Soul Master attempting to harm a Student. It's her!"

Yue Zhengyu pointed toward the red-haired girl he had just been confronting.

The teacher looked at her and frowned, asking, "Yuanen Yehui of the second-year regular class?"

Yuanen Yehui nodded: "It's me."

The teacher glanced at the bruise-covered Xie Xie and said to Yue Zhengyu, "The academy is aware of her situation. She is not an Evil Soul Master."

Hearing this, Yue Zhengyu's eyes widened, his golden pupils filled with disbelief.

His mouth fell open, and his voice rose several notches: "How can a Fallen Angel Spirit not be an Evil Soul Master? Teacher..."

He was halfway through his sentence when the teacher raised a hand to cut him off.

Yue Zhengyu's eyes were full of indignation, but in front of the teacher, he ultimately said nothing more. He closed his mouth and stood there silently.

The teacher then looked at Yuanen Yehui, his voice calm and serious: "Student Yuanen, why did you attack a fellow Student in the academy?"

Yuanen Yehui pursed her lips, a flash of coldness appearing in her purplish-red eyes.

She gave the head-lowered Xie Xie a cold glare and said harshly, "Ask him!"

"I... I..." Xie Xie looked up to steal a glance at Yuanen Yehui, his gaze carrying a hint of a guilty conscience.

He then looked at the two teachers and opened his mouth, but just like when he faced Huo Yuhao earlier, he couldn't explain the situation clearly for a long time.

A trace of impatience flashed in the two teachers' eyes, and their brows furrowed deeper.

The other teacher, who had remained silent until now, spoke up: "Let's take them back first."

"Mm, that's best!" The first teacher said, looking at the group, "Then come with us."

At that moment, Na'er suddenly jumped out. Facing the two teachers without a shred of fear, she said, "Teacher, we weren't involved. Yuhao even stepped in at the critical moment to separate them. We don't need to go, right?"

The teacher frowned, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes. When they were rushing over, they had indeed seen Huo Yuhao step in to suppress the clashing Yue Zhengyu and Yuanen Yehui.

But even if Huo Yuhao's group weren't participants, they might be able to provide some information as bystanders, so the teacher was naturally unwilling to let them go just like that.

While the teacher was thinking, Na'er added, "We're about to go to Sea God Island; Master is waiting for us."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the two teachers changed instantly.

They naturally knew who this "little witch" Na'er's Master was—the Sea Gods Pavilion Master Yun Ming. They wouldn't dare make the Sky-Supporting Douluo wait.

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the same decision in the other's eyes.

"In that case, the three of you come with us."

The three he referred to were naturally Yuanen Yehui, Yue Zhengyu, and Xie Xie.

Xie Xie's eyes widened beside them; he hadn't expected his partners to "abandon" him like this.

He opened his mouth, his voice full of urgency: "You guys are going to Sea God Island? Don't leave me behind!"

Na'er giggled, her smile carrying a hint of schadenfreude: "We were originally coming to find you so we could go together, but who told you to get into this kind of trouble? So, you'd better wait for the next opportunity."

Xie Xie's eyes were full of regret; he had missed a precious opportunity.

He had waited for this day for so long, and yet when the chance came, he hadn't grasped it. However, there was nothing he could do now, as he truly was the "culprit" in this matter.

After the three were taken away by the teachers, Xu Xiaoyan couldn't help but say, "What exactly happened? He didn't even offer a single explanation."

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment: "He probably has some difficulty speaking about it. It seems he really did something wrong this time."

Na'er chuckled from the side: "What kind of difficulty could it be? Surely he didn't fall for that Yuanen Yehui and get caught peeping while she was bathing?"

Xu Xiaoyan shook her head: "Xie Xie isn't that kind of person."

Although Xie Xie liked to joke and talk back, he was definitely not a frivolous person.

After chatting for a bit, Na'er said, "Alright, I'll take you to Sea God Island."

"What about Tang Wulin?" Huo Yuhao asked; their "small squad" was still missing Tang Wulin.

Na'er said, "Tang Wulin is with his Grandmaster. We'll meet up on Sea God Island."

Hearing this, everyone understood. Tang Wulin's Grandmaster was none other than the Scarlet Dragon Douluo Zhuo Shi. So he was currently on Sea God Island.

Although Shrek Academy didn't forbid flying, except for special circumstances, even teachers wouldn't fly around the academy, let alone Students.

So everyone followed Na'er, taking a boat across Sea God Lake to head toward Sea God Island. The small boat moved slowly across the azure lake surface, the oars breaking the water and creating ripples.

In the distance, the silhouette of Sea God Island loomed in the morning mist, mysterious and solemn.

Eventually, the boat stopped at the edge of Sea God Island.

Everyone jumped off the boat and stepped onto this legendary land. Beneath their feet was soft grass, and before them was a dense forest; the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance. Everything was so peaceful and beautiful, like a paradise isolated from the world.

Na'er still walked at the very front. As the "host," she prepared to act as a guide and lead everyone through this mysterious Sea God Island.

She was about to start introducing something when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

It wasn't just Na'er; Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan were the same.

They stopped almost simultaneously and then turned around to look at Huo Yuhao, who was at the very back.

His current state was clearly not right!
