Chapter 60 Werewolf
At this moment, two figures, one old and one young, appeared in front of the Shrek Academy gate.
Without waiting for Dugu Bo to come forward, Tang San hurried forward to make arrangements. Tang San ran forward and said a few words to the guard at the gate. The guard hurried into the academy.
Tang San and Dugu Bo waited quietly. After a while, Flender, Master, Liu Erlong, Zhao Wuji, Lu Qibin, Shao Xin, and Li Yusong, a total of seven people, hurried from the academy towards the gate.
"Teachers, I'm back." Tang San saw Yu Xiaogang and the others coming and hurried forward to bow and greet them.
A complex look flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes. Looking at Tang San in front of him, he didn't even know how to respond to Tang San's greeting.
Tang San noticed Yu Xiaogang's unease and asked softly, "Teacher, what's wrong? You seem troubled."
Yu Xiaogang shook his head slightly, unsure how to address him. Flender, understanding Yu Xiaogang's predicament, quickly said, "Let's go inside first. Please, Senior Dugu."
Dugu Bo nodded to Flender without saying anything, a gesture of return.
Flender then turned to Zhao Wuji and said, "Old Zhao, go get Xiao Yi."
Zhao Wuji nodded and left. The group then slowly entered Shrek Academy.
"Teacher, is everyone okay?" Tang San asked Yu Xiaogang softly. The Shrek teachers all had complex expressions. They understood Tang San's relationship with the other students wasn't great. This could almost be translated as "Is Xiao Wu okay?"
Seeing the teachers' grim expressions and no one responding, Tang San's expression changed. A sense of foreboding welled up within him. His steps suddenly became ethereal as he darted towards the girls' dormitory.
"Hey... little monster."
Dugu Bo, realizing what must have happened, quickly dodged and followed, with Flender and the others following suit.
Shi Yi and his companions were walking down the road when they spotted several figures sprinting towards the girls' dormitory at breakneck speed.
Shi Yi whispered to Zhao Wuji, "Teacher Zhao, let's go too. It looks like Xiao San already knows."
"Well, if she knows, then she knows. Someone we in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect can't find has only two possible outcomes: dead, or hiding in the mountains or a spirit beast gathering place," Ning Rongrong said nonchalantly.
Zhao Wuji, upon hearing this, quickly said to Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, don't say that to that brat later. If anything happens to you two at the academy, will Shrek Academy still be open?"
Ning Rongrong nodded, but she was simply stating the facts. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's businesses are spread across Tiandou. As long as this person spent money there, they'd be easily found.
Anyone who hasn't spent money in the city for half a year is either dead or living as a savage in the mountains.
"How about Zhuqing, take Rongrong back to the room?" Shi Yi whispered to Zhu Zhuqing, and Zhao Wuji nodded in agreement.
Before Zhu Zhuqing could say anything, Ning Rongrong snorted and said, "No, I'm going."
Shi Yi looked helpless. Ever since Zhu Zhuqing had coaxed Ning Rongrong into submission, Ning Rongrong had always contradicted him, except when it came to matters of cultivation.
"Okay, there are some things that really need someone from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to explain them more convincingly," Shi Yi said helplessly.
Then the others chased in the direction of the girls' dormitory.
Soon, Shi Yi and the others arrived at the dormitory where Xiao Wu had lived. Flanders had kept this dormitory open and had not allowed any new students to move in.
Just as he reached the door, Shi Yi heard Tang San's voice from inside the room. "Teacher, can you tell me what's going on? Where did Xiao Wu go?"
"I don't know either," Yu Xiaogang sighed. Shi
Yi slowly entered, only to see Tang San tugging at Yu Xiaogang's sleeve, his eyes slightly red, his body bent low, almost kneeling.
"Let me tell you, Xiao San," Shi Yi's voice reached Tang San's ears.
In an instant, Tang San's gaze shifted to Shi Yi, his eyes brightening. Teachers, busy with their classes and work, might not understand the details of what happened as well as a student like Shi Yi.
This was why Flanders had summoned Shi Yi.
Seeing this, Shi Yi looked at Tang San calmly and said, "Xiao San, calm down. I'll explain slowly. This person must be Senior Dugu. With you here, perhaps you'll be more receptive to what happened those days."
Dugu Bo also cast a puzzled gaze at Shi Yi, unsure how this matter related to him.
Upon hearing this, Tang San took a deep breath, calmed himself, and slowly turned to Shi Yi.
"Xiao San, first of all, let me tell you the truth. Xiao Wu has been missing for six months. Missing," Shi Yi said seriously.
Tang San's eyes were filled with excitement. He was about to say something, but Shi Yi interrupted him, "Listen carefully. Missing. Missing without telling anyone."
"Xiao San, listen patiently to what Xiao Yi has to say," Yu Xiaogang whispered to Tang San.
"Xiao Wu disappeared on the second night after you were invited by Senior Dugu to be his guest. On the third day, when Teacher returned to the academy, rumors spread throughout Tiandou that a 100,000-year-old spirit beast had appeared in the dense forest outside Tiandou's southwest gate. Teacher and I tracked Xiao Wu's presence and she disappeared in that direction," Shi Yi said calmly.
Hearing this, Dugu Bo's emerald green pupils shrank sharply, and he nodded and said, "Yes, I also felt the breath of a hundred thousand year soul beast that day, and I was confronting the little monster's teachers at that time, so I didn't go. Such a good thing is not something I can get. If you want to know more, the two old guys from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect must know."
In an instant, Tang San's gaze fell on Ning Rongrong, and a devouring light flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing instantly stood in front of Ning Rongrong and said vigilantly: "Tang San, what do you want to do? This matter has nothing to do with Rongrong."
Ning Rongrong also pulled Zhu Zhuqing away gently without fear, and whispered to Zhu Zhuqing: "It's okay, Zhuqing, I will explain."
"Grandpa Bone did rush to the scene as soon as possible, but he did not find Xiao Wu, but only found a man in black, a hundred thousand year soul ring, and the corpse of a soul beast. After Grandpa Bone's analysis, the hundred thousand year soul beast was a transformed soul beast. The killer did not have the ability to absorb the soul ring, so he took away the soul bone. As for the man in black, he should be a Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall. When he saw Grandpa Bone coming, he used his soul skills to destroy the corpse as soon as possible." Ning Rongrong said lightly.
Dugu Bo sneered, "You might be able to fool a kid like that, but I'm afraid your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect took the soul bone and won't admit it. That old Gu Rong guy must have silenced the girl."
"What did you say... well... well..." Ning Rongrong's words were barely uttered when Shi Yi covered her mouth.
Flanders felt a cold sweat break out on his forehead. Fortunately, Shi Yi covered Ning Rongrong's mouth; he could hear her cursing.
Dugu Bo snorted coldly at Ning Rongrong. Others feared the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect behind her, but he didn't. If it weren't for his granddaughter, no one would dare to look at Dugu Bo with disdain.
Even the Spirit Hall gave up hunting him after his promotion.
Shi Yi quickly changed the subject, "Senior, if it were anyone else, I'm sure they would have silenced them. But with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's power, Jian Gu and the other two could easily consume this soul bone. There's no point in killing a little girl, especially one with innate full soul power. If they truly saw Xiao Wu, they could simply capture her and bring her back to the sect."
"Furthermore, Rongrong, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's most gifted disciple and the daughter of Sect Master Ning, has spent the past six months at Shrek. If the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect truly had something to hide, they wouldn't allow their prodigy to continue their studies here."
Shi Yi indirectly pointed out Ning Rongrong's identity, implicitly warning Dugu Bo.
A flicker of admiration flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes. He looked at Shi Yi, nodded, and sneered, "You're not bad, kid. No wonder you're the senior brother of Little Monster. I admit you have a point, but after all, it's a hundred thousand year soul bone, so no one can guarantee anything..."
"Senior brother, is Xiao Wu still alive?" Tang San asked softly, looking at Shi Yi, his eyes indifferent.
Shi Yi shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know. These are all the clues we have so far. The only fact is that Xiao Wu hasn't returned. If Xiao Wu is alive, the only possibility is that she killed the hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast, took the spirit bone, and is afraid to show up. If Xiao Wu is in danger, then the person who killed her has silenced her, or perhaps she died at the hands of the spirit beast."
"In other words, whoever took the spirit bone is the real culprit," Tang San said softly. Although his voice was soft, his tone was as chilling as the cold of winter.
Tang San's mind was racing, his gaze constantly switching between Dugu Bo and Ning Rongrong. He had no evidence that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect killed Xiao Wu, but Dugu Bo was indirectly responsible for Xiao Wu's death.
Shi Yi watched Tang San's gaze shift and couldn't help but smile internally. He almost couldn't help but mourn for Dugu Bo. Dugu Bo had no idea how much Xiao Wu meant to Tang San. The old man didn't think Tang San would still be able to detoxify him after such a disaster.
"This old fellow must have triggered his death spell," Shi Yi thought to himself.
Suddenly, Tang San suddenly rushed out of the room and ran away.
Yu Xiaogang wanted to chase him, but Shi Yi stopped him. Shi Yi shook his head and said, "Let Xiao San go and take a look. It's been half a year, there won't be any danger there. Xiao San won't trust anyone about Xiao Wu, not even us."
"It's just a little girl. At worst, I can introduce my granddaughter to the little monster," Dugu Bo said nonchalantly.
The Shrek people also looked at Dugu Bo with fake smiles. It would be really creepy to marry a drug addict and sleep next to him.
"Okay, it seems the little monster doesn't have time to help me today. I'm leaving first." With that, Dugu Bo's figure slowly disappeared from the sight of everyone.
After Dugu Bo left, Ning Rongrong glared at Shi Yi and asked, "Why won't you let me speak?"
Flender also turned to Ning Rongrong and said, "My little ancestor, don't make things worse! He's a Titled Douluo, and a master of poison. Those with bare feet are not afraid of those with shoes, don't you understand? If he goes crazy, not only Shrek, but all of Tiandou City will suffer."
Ning Rongrong couldn't help but feel a little timid upon hearing this. She muttered quietly, "It's just a few curses, is it that serious?"
Yu Xiaogang sighed softly. How could Shrek face the upcoming All-Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Competition in this state?
"Flender, you should go over and take a look. Don't disturb Xiao San. Just let him investigate the area," Yu Xiaogang said to Flender.
Flanders also nodded, looked at Ning Rongrong again, sighed slightly, and said to Zhao Wuji: "Old Zhao, I have trained you recently to keep a good eye on this little ancestor. Also, if Tang San comes to find Ning Rongrong, don't let the two of you be alone. I'm really afraid that kid will go crazy."
Zhao Wuji nodded seriously when he heard it, looked at Ning Rongrong and said: "Did you hear that? Don't provoke that kid Tang San during this period. That kid even wants to beat up a Soul Saint like me for that little bastard. I suggest you go back to the sect and play for a few days. Tang San is at an unstable time during this period."
"Why? I am innocent and I have nothing to fear. Our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect didn't take it, so we didn't take it." Ning Rongrong said unconvinced.
Shi Yi patted Ning Rongrong's shoulder and said, "We believe this matter has nothing to do with you, but Xiao San won't believe it. There's no need to go home; that would only make you look guilty. Considering what happened to Zhuqing earlier, I think it's best to have your grandfather secretly protect you. That way, everyone can feel more at ease."
Ning Rongrong's expression froze, and she slowly said, "Isn't Tang San that kind of person?"
"If someone has nothing, they'll do anything to achieve their goals, just like me, alone and unattached. Even if I kill you, I'll only be exchanging my own life for you, the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect," Shi Yi said deliberately, deliberately threatening.
"You won't do that, because you're afraid of death," Zhu Zhuqing said calmly, looking at Shi Yi.
Ning Rongrong chuckled at this.
Shi Yi rolled his eyes at Zhu Zhuqing and said, "I'm teaching her a lesson. Can you please not ruin the atmosphere?"
Seeing this, Liu Erlong said with some resignation, "You still have the mind to joke around."
"Alright, stop messing around and return to your training," Yu Xiaogang said to the three of them.
Shi Yi smiled and nodded. Half a year had passed, and what could Tang San possibly have found? He had returned empty-handed.
Thinking of this, Shi Yi suddenly wondered who Tang Hao would suspect if he learned of this news.
Knowing that Xiao Wu was a hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was a major suspect, given their proximity.
"This Werewolf is getting more and more interesting," Shi Yi thought to himself.
