Just as she was about to defect, Bibi Dong obtained a simulator.

Chapter 36 No Longer a Romantic Mind

"Soto City is so boring. The people are boring, the things are boring, everything is boring."

Xia Yu was walking down the main street of Soto City with the Sword Feather Eagle in his arms, muttering this sentence to himself. Some hot-tempered people around him tried to grab him by the collar and question him.

However, under the intimidation of the identity token bearing the Spirit Hall logo that Xia Yu wore on his waist, he gave up the idea.

"Shall we go check out Shrek Academy?"

"Chirp."

Xia Yu seemed to be asking Jian Yuying a question, but he was actually talking to himself. Neither of them could understand each other's language at all; body language was the only way they could communicate.

It was precisely because of the negotiation with fists and the appeasement with flying kicks that Sword Feather Eagle, as a somewhat intelligent ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, did not try to escape from Xia Yu's side and return to the comfort zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.

After all, it really hurts. If anyone disagrees and thinks that the wildness of a soul beast cannot be suppressed, they can also try this feeling of being beaten up as soon as they meet and then having their flesh pounded with fists anytime, anywhere.

As Xia Yu walked along, he gradually got used to the weight of the Sword Feather Eagle. His feelings toward this portable means of transportation were complicated.

While I was delighted to be able to travel to various cities in a short period of time, I was also somewhat annoyed by this guy who couldn't understand human language.

"If only you could understand human speech."

With a vehicle that can understand human speech by his side, Xia Yu couldn't even imagine how happy he would be. He would probably become the happiest person in the world.

"Tweet?"

"Oh, what a pity."

Seeing the Sword Feather Eagle tilting its head and staring at him with a blank expression, Xia Yu sighed and quickened his pace.

Soon, he arrived at the former Shrek Academy site outside Soto.

Although the land was cheap to build the college here, Xia Yu was really surprised by its appearance, which resembled an old rural house.

The old school building felt like it was a generation behind the buildings in Soto. It was empty and seemed like no one had lived there for months.

"So they've already moved to Tiandou City?"

Xia Yu stroked his chin and recalled the Sword Feather Eagle, which was chasing a dragonfly. The sky was already covered with dark clouds, and it looked like it was about to rain.

"Little Black, we should go now. Next stop, Notting City!"

Xia Yu's face was radiant with light from the Myriad Transformations Mask as he stood on the back of the Sword Feather Eagle, which had regained its original massive size.

A man and an eagle soared through the clouds, seeing light again above the dark clouds. Without lingering, they flew westward toward Nottingham, with only their robes and feathers being somewhat greedy, taking a few clouds with them.

……

In the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong clenched her fists, her face full of anticipation as she watched Tang Hao being brutally murdered.

[You've only been in the Killing Capital for a short time, and yet you've already begun one battle after another.]

Upon seeing this, Bibi Dong was disappointed, and her body, which had been tense with excitement, slumped into her chair.

“ε=(ο｀*))) Sigh, if only I could simulate myself.”

It was only at this moment that she realized this was not a simulation of herself, but rather a view of future changes from Hu Liena's perspective.

He had already sent Hu Liena into the City of Slaughter before the great battle. If she could still see him slaughtering Tang Hao, she would definitely capture her and interrogate her to find out who had impersonated her beloved disciple. [Your life in the City of Slaughter was quite easy, all thanks to the external soul bone on your back.]

In this world where soul skills cannot be used, having a fox tail that you can control at will is a crucial reason why you can achieve victory in repeated encounters.

Over the course of a year, you witnessed countless acts of filth and depravity, and endured countless battles and killings.

Here, survival rules exist that are completely different from those in the outside world; everyone is fighting tooth and nail to survive.

[But none of them are as good as you, which is why you survived, and you firmly believe that you will be able to leave the City of Slaughter and bring a completely different Hu Liena to your teacher and the Spirit Hall!]

You've grown accustomed to the pungent, metallic smell of blood, and you've become used to sleeping peacefully covered in it.

But as you wash away the hands stained with the lives of your companions, you might occasionally recall your former, somewhat naive self.

"These are the troubles that come with growing up, Nana."

Bibi Dong watched Hu Liena grow stronger through her battles in the Killing City, and also recalled her own experiences in the Killing City.

As a natural prison for the Spirit Hall to deal with the most vicious spirit masters, it can be described as a living hell.

No matter how insidious or despicable a person is, you might encounter them there. There are no good people in the land of slaughter. This is what Bibi Dong firmly believes, and it is also the greatest help that enabled her to survive in it.

Once you've decided on this, you won't be deceived or betrayed by irrational and unscrupulous people. There, survival depends solely on bloody slaughter!
At twenty-one, you achieved eighty-seven victories in the Hell Arena, earning the title "Messenger of Hell" from the terrified villains you slaughtered.

[Faced with such a title, you didn't feel much excitement.]

What you care about more is a man named Tang Yin. He entered the Hell Arena around the same time as you, but he has already achieved ninety-three victories and is known as the "Asura King."

[Regarding the upcoming Hell Road trials, while you are confident, you also want to take some extra precautions.]

So you approached him, confiding in him about the dangers of the path to hell, hoping for his cooperation.

As you expected, he agreed.

[You witnessed him wielding the Clear Sky Hammer when he was surrounded and attacked. Remembering your teacher's mention of the Clear Sky Sect, you personally extinguished any remaining interest you might have in this mysterious man.]

[You can tell that Tang Yin doesn't trust you either; you two rely more on each other as a guarantee in case you're in danger.]

Whether you're trapped yourself or you're using someone to draw the enemy's attention, you feel you're capable of anything as long as you can survive.

You've really grown up!

When Bibi Dong saw this thought about Hu Liena, she was shocked and her eyes widened.

In the previous simulation, even though Hu Liena went to the Killing City twice, she returned no different from before, and even developed an even more severe case of being obsessed with love.

Bibi Dong had no idea how she did it, but she witnessed Hu Liena's transformation firsthand during this simulation.

Compared to the former Hu Liena, who was love-struck and fell for anyone outstanding, she prefers the current Hu Liena.

"However, something seems off about Nana. Could it be that her murderous aura is too strong, causing some changes?"

Bibi Dong speculated as she continued to observe Hu Liena's future.
