Lin Yun's leave request was quickly approved.
The leave slip was sent directly to Zhang Lexuan. As the current vice dean of the outer court, Zhang Lexuan had many things to learn, and many of Du Weilun, the dean of discipline's, powers were delegated to Zhang Lexuan.
Before this, these matters were certainly not handled by the dean and vice dean, but were all thrown to Du Weilun, that old guy.
But who told Shrek to place such high hopes on Zhang Lexuan?
So, many matters that were originally within Du Weilun's management scope were transferred to Zhang Lexuan, to hone her management abilities.
With much less work, Du Weilun was quite happy.
But when an inner court disciple got promoted to vice dean even earlier than him, the dean of discipline, Du Weilun was no longer happy.
Damn it, workplace oppression!
If he didn't know Zhang Lexuan's terrifying talent and strength, Du Weilun would definitely be unconvinced. After all, he had diligently stayed in the position of dean of discipline for more than ten years; if not for credit, then for hard work, it should have been his turn to advance based on merit.
But there was nothing he could do. The title of the inner court's senior sister, Du Weilun had heard it many times, and he had even taught Zhang Lexuan before he became the dean of discipline.
Now, it was good, his former student had climbed above him.
Du Weilun now practically cried all day, couldn't be happier, slacking off at work to the point of being out of touch.
Cough cough—
In short, Lin Yun's indefinite leave request was approved. Anyway, his strength was already exceeding the outer court's standards, and on the very day the leave was approved, he immediately slipped away from Shrek Academy.
After leaving Shrek Academy, the Ice Empress transformed into human form. Without saying a word, she just stared at Lin Yun with resentful eyes.
Lin Yun, who was eating, couldn't hold back at all. His face turned green as he looked at the Ice Empress: "I say, Ice'er, why are you staring at me like that? You're making me completely uncomfortable..."
"What do you think?" The Ice Empress's expression grew even more resentful upon hearing him.
[Your Royal Consort, Ice Empress, has sent you a link request] Lin Yun: ? ...
The satiated Ice Empress contentedly returned to Lin Yun's embrace, turning back into a little scorpion to continue sleeping, while Lin Yun, holding his waist, flapped his Golden Shadow Dragon Wings and flew towards the Star Dou Great Forest.
Perhaps it was because she had been holding back for a long time, but the Ice Empress was surprisingly tenacious this time.
Even with Lin Yun's physical strength, having condensed a Qi-Blood Soul Core, he almost couldn't suppress the Ice Empress. The forty-thousand-year-level Fierce Beast body strength was fully displayed this time.
The Ice Empress's frenzied eating led to Lin Yun's current state. Although he wasn't completely drained, his slightly pale face and faint dark circles under his eyes told the story of his last few days.
Yes, it had been days.
Originally, Lin Yun could have returned to the Lake of Life with the Ice Empress on the very day he left Shrek Academy, but due to the Ice Empress's gluttony, it took several extra days.
Lin Yun, flying above the Star Dou Great Forest, had a somewhat helpless expression.
He wondered if he hadn't neglected the Ice Empress. Why did this little loli suddenly act like she was crazy, constantly demanding from him?
However, since he had already fed the little loli her fill, thinking about the reason was useless now. It was better to return to the Lake of Life quickly; the Myriad Demon King had probably been waiting there for a long time.
Flying in the sky, Lin Yun did not suppress his aura. A terrifying dragon might subtly spread outwards, deterring the surrounding soul beasts.
In the soul beast habitat, there were two actions explicitly forbidden.
One was lighting fires in the soul beast forest.
The second was flying recklessly above the soul beast forest.
The former might attract a large number of soul beasts, while the latter would be treated as a live target.
Lin Yun clearly didn't have this problem.
Soul beasts with weaker strength (below ten-thousand-years) were directly scared and scattered, fleeing for their lives. Soul beasts that had reached ten-thousand-years or more could sense the black dragon's reverse scale on Lin Yun, and thus dared not attack.
He almost flew unimpeded directly to the Lake of Life.
It was estimated that Lin Yun was the only human Soul King capable of such a feat.
After landing by the Lake of Life and retracting his wings, Di Tian emerged from space the next second, kneeling on one knee before him.
"Greetings, Honored One, welcome back!"
It must be said, Di Tian never disappointed Lin Yun in this regard, always providing him with an unparalleled boss experience.
"Hmm, rise. Where is the Myriad Demon King?" Lin Yun nodded, then asked.
"Reporting, Honored One, the Myriad Demon King is currently in his territory. Does this subordinate need to inform him to come?" Di Tian stood up and asked Lin Yun.
"No rush. When the Myriad Demon King returned, did he bring a human little girl? Where is she now?" Lin Yun waved his hand, first asking about his planned target.
The main reason for his return to Star Dou, besides not wanting to meet Tang San at this time, was right here. Naturally, he went straight to the point upon his return.
"This..." Di Tian hesitated, recalling what happened after he met the Myriad Demon King, then nodded, "When the Myriad Demon King returned, he indeed brought a human back, but he bound her very tightly with vines, so this subordinate doesn't know if it's a boy or a girl."
"And they should both be in the Myriad Demon King's territory now."
"Alright, let's go there now!" Lin Yun decisively chose to go.
Di Tian took Lin Yun through space, arriving at the Myriad Demon King's territory. This area had only one type of plant, the Demon Eye Evil Tree, and the Myriad Demon King was rooted in the very center of this area.
Just as he emerged from space, Lin Yun heard a familiar voice.
"Bastard! Why did you capture me!"
"I am the imperial princess of the Dou Ling Empire! If I find a chance to escape home, I will definitely have someone chop you up for firewood!"
"Wuwuwu, I was wrong... please let me go..."
Lin Yun stood there with a strange expression, listening to Xue Qingci's loud wailing.
Yes, Xue Qingci.
Originally, he had planned to abduct Xue Qingci during the Soul Dueling Competition, but after thinking it over, he decided to have the Myriad Demon King act after the competition ended, to bring her back.
Why do this?
...
In the carriage, Xue Qingci stared blankly out the window, recalling the bits and pieces of the competition. What left the deepest impression on him was none other than Shrek Academy and Lin Yun.
The other members of the Dou Ling team were dejected; after all, they didn't even make it into the top four, so it would be strange if they were happy.
And at this moment, an extremely oppressive aura, accompanied by a terrifying laugh, appeared beside them.
"Hehehehe! It seems this lord hasn't come to the wrong place!"
