Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 135 After School! Leng Yaozhu's Secret Invitation!
"Oh, I see."

Leng Yaozhu agreed, then turned to the crowd, her tone returning to its usual composure.

"That's all for today. Please give my regards to Sister Yali. Yue'er, take your friends and leave."

After saying that, she said no more, turned gracefully, and walked away.

"Thank you, senior! Goodbye, senior!"

Everyone quickly bowed and watched Leng Yaozhu's figure disappear.

However, just as Leng Yaozhu's figure was about to disappear around the corner of the corridor, a faint voice rang in Jiang Yi's ears.

"Wait a minute, come to the Spirit Pagoda again by yourself. I have something to discuss with you privately."

Jiang Yi's heart skipped a beat. He looked up and saw that the end of the corridor was deserted.

He glanced at his companions around him, who were completely unaware of what was happening, and realized that this was Leng Yaozhu's secret invitation.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Yi had already guessed some of the answers.

Today, when he used Leng Yulai's Black Phoenix True Fire, Leng Yaozhu indeed noticed it.

"Brother, what are you daydreaming about? We should go!"

Tang Wuling waved her hand in front of Jiang Yi's eyes, her soft, sweet voice filled with concern, interrupting his thoughts.

"You guys go ahead! I still have some business to attend to at the Spirit Pagoda's Battle Armor Master Department!"

Jiang Yi composed himself and gave Tang Wuling and the others a gentle smile.

"Alright! Then take care of yourself, brother! Things haven't been very peaceful lately."

Tang Wuling held Jiang Yi's hand and whispered her instructions.

Two days ago, when she and Xie Xie went to Ya Li's office, they heard some rumors.

It seems that Shrek's previous high-profile operation has provoked retaliation from evil spirit masters, and even Teacher Wu has reminded the freshmen to try not to leave Shrek City recently.

The academy will absolutely not tolerate this; a much bigger storm is probably brewing.

"Don't worry! Don't you trust my strength? Besides, what danger could there be in the Spirit Pagoda?"

Jiang Yi said helplessly, "This little sister has grown up and is starting to resemble her mother."

"Exactly! Wu Ling, you're overthinking it. In fact, there is danger. We're the ones who seem to be a burden..."

Xie Xie shrugged, his tone filled with an almost blind trust in Jiang Yi.

Even if Shrek City were to be destroyed, Jiang Yi would most likely be unharmed; this was his confidence in Jiang Yi.

"Yeah! Yeah! Let's hurry! It looks like it's going to rain... I haven't brought my laundry in from the dorm yet."

Ye Xinglan nodded repeatedly, eager to leave; all she wanted to do right now was get away from Jiang Yi.

She would have been fine if she hadn't spoken, but the moment she opened her mouth, she immediately drew a half-smile from Jiang Yi.

"Cough cough..."

Ye Xinglan felt uneasy under that gaze and subconsciously straightened her chest, but her feet retreated from her heart to behind Yuanen Yehui.

I almost forgot about you.

Jiang Yi found her timid appearance somewhat amusing.

His lips moved slightly, and a telepathic message was sent out. Ye Xinglan on the other side immediately widened her eyes.

Are you sure? Isn't this a bit inappropriate?

She looked at Jiang Yi with disbelief, silently confirming with her eyes.

Sure!

Jiang Yi's smile remained unchanged, and he nodded almost imperceptibly.

Ok……

Ye Xinglan lowered her head dejectedly, and secretly made a hand gesture to Jiang Yi with her hand hidden in her sleeve.

Their silent exchange was so discreet that it went unnoticed by others.

Yuan Enhui, standing to the side, was even more absent-minded. At this moment, she only had one thought in her mind: where to get money.

The tavern where I work might be able to give me an advance on my wages, and I could also borrow some money from Xinglan...?
"let's go!"

Gu Yue glanced at Ye Xinglan out of the corner of his eye, but his heart remained unmoved. A little brat, nothing to be afraid of!
Her gaze was mostly fixed on Tang Wuling, a complex and unfathomable light flashing deep in her eyes.

Today's unexpected discovery has resolved many of her previous doubts.

Daughter of the sea god? Interesting!
Fortunately, she hadn't acted rashly against Tang Wuling! Gu Yue secretly rejoiced.

With her current strength not fully recovered, she might not be able to suppress the sea god's divine sense directly; instead, she might alert the enemy.

Now, by a twist of fate, she has become the one hiding in the end!

Even the Golden Dragon King was brought under her command; the future of the dragon race is truly full of vitality!

"See you at the academy then! Moon, I'll come find you again later!"

Jiang Yi didn't notice Gu Yue's unusual behavior and waved to her.

"Ok!"

Gu Yue snapped out of her thoughts, nodded slightly to Jiang Yi, and then left with the others without further delay.

After the figures of the group disappeared at the end of the passage, Jiang Yi withdrew his gaze and headed towards the room number that Leng Yaozhu had left for him.

As he walked, he pondered what he would say next.

As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows! Having multiple mothers means having multiple paths to take!
……

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy, in the faculty dormitory, room 520.

"Sister Meng, it's all over now... You have to cheer up!"

Shen Yi sat on the edge of the bed, holding Tang Yinmeng's cold hand, his voice filled with worry.

However, Tang Yinmeng just sat there blankly, her eyes empty and lifeless, as if her soul had already left her.

Only the glistening tears constantly sliding down her cheeks proved that she was not a mindless sculpture.

Seeing his senior sister in such a state, Shen Yi felt a pang of sorrow, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only let out a helpless sigh.

Senior Sister! She's been like this ever since she came back from that mission a while ago.

Although his life was saved, it seems his soul was lost on that day.

His Holy Spirit can only heal physical wounds, but cannot cure the heart's ailment.

"Boom! Boom!"

Just then, a steady knock on the door broke the silence inside.

Shen Yi quickly wiped his eyes, got up, walked briskly to the door, and opened it.

An elderly woman with white hair stood outside the door, her face serious, her eyes sharp, and her whole being exuding an aura of authority without anger.

At this moment, she was carrying a girl with blue pigtails, just like she was carrying a kitten. It was Xu Xiaoyan.

Xu Xiaoyan was lifted into the air, her limbs hanging limply, her little face full of innocence and grievance.

These past two days, she had been quietly refining the immortal herbs in Jiang Yi's room when, unexpectedly, the old woman suddenly burst in and interrupted her seclusion.

If she hadn't already refined it nearly to the point of perfection, she might have suffered a backlash from the soul power and gone mad from the cultivation.

Xu Xiaoyan pouted and looked at Shen Yi, who opened the door, with teary eyes.

"Teacher Shen, help me! This old woman... mmm!"

Before she could finish speaking, Long Yeyue gave her a cold glance, and a powerful surge of soul force instantly sealed her mouth.

If you can't talk, then don't talk!
Me, an old woman? In the entire Shrek Academy, everyone calls her Sister Yue.

Long Yeyue's face was somewhat cold. She was once the most beautiful girl in Shrek Academy, captivating a generation across the continent.

"Sister Yue? What brings you here?"

Upon seeing the white-haired old woman, Shen Yi's face immediately showed surprise.

Upon hearing this, Long Yeyue looked at Shen Yi with a hint of admiration, thinking that the old man Zhuoshi was indeed good at teaching disciples.

"Sister Yue, Xiao Yan is a freshman this year. She is young and doesn't know much about the academy's rules. I will definitely discipline her strictly in the future!"

Shen Yi smiled obsequiously at Long Yeyue and quickly explained on Xu Xiaoyan's behalf, reaching out to take Xu Xiaoyan away.

"Ok!"

Long Yeyue didn't make things difficult for Shen Yi, and casually handed over Xu Xiaoyan, whom she was carrying.

She checked the little girl and there was nothing wrong with her, except that she had a bad breath.

Then, she glanced past Shen Yi, quickly scanned his room, and asked in a deep voice.

"Where is Jiang Yi, the kid who lives in the room next to yours?"
