The next day, the sun was high in the sky. After a night of commotion, he actually managed to piece together some information about the competition team from Zhang Lexuan's fragmented and broken words. Of course, his main purpose wasn't this; it was just an excuse. Zhang Lexuan, on the other hand, seemed to treat this as some kind of strange game...
Things were getting stranger and stranger. In fact, he felt that the longer he spent with Zhang Lexuan, the higher his tolerance for these strange games became... Good heavens, was I corrupted?!
Kong Mingan didn't know what to say for a moment, and subconsciously looked aside. There, Zhang Lexuan was draped in a hazy veil. The morning light descended, scattering a little gold dust, which made her skin look even fairer. At this moment, she slightly lowered her eyes, her finger gently stroking the word "Exclusive Use" written below in black ink. Her gaze was hazy, carrying an indescribable meaning. Well, it looked even stranger. When he was first at that tavern, he could already sense that Zhang Lexuan's personality had become slightly twisted and strange after experiencing many things. Now, this distortion hadn't made Zhang Lexuan break, but instead, she was sprinting down a very strange path?
Kong Mingan fell into contemplation.
After a total of one week, Kong Mingan finally paid off his contractual debt to Zhang Lexuan and returned to the Chamber of Commerce's station. As soon as Kong Mingan pushed the door open, a figure rushed towards him like the wind, pressed its small head close, and sniffed hard at him. Then, it frowned tightly. The pair of golden eyes held fury. The Ice Empress stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at him, and sharply demanded: "
——
"You still remember how to come back?!"
These words inexplicably sounded like a wife questioning her husband returning home after fooling around. Kong Mingan, however, looked normal and calmly replied, "I came back, eventually."
He hadn't hidden anything. When he left seven days ago, he had explained the situation to the Ice Empress. After all, concealment would only lead to greater trouble; it was better to report it beforehand. In response, the Ice Empress immediately bared her teeth and tried to bite him then, and the Ice Empress was baring her teeth now too.
Smelling the aura of that bad woman on Kong Mingan, the Ice Empress was so angry she wanted to bite him, but in the end, she didn't strike. She just felt an inexplicable irritation in her heart. Damn it, this fellow isn't clean anymore!
Kong Mingan looked at the slightly sullen Ice Empress, smiled faintly, and extended his hand in invitation: "Let's go. We've stayed here long enough. We'll find somewhere else to play.
The Ice Empress's brows were still tightly furrowed. She pointed at him and said, "Go take a shower first! And change your clothes for me. Throw these ones away!"
"You dislike me that much?" Kong Mingan looked a little hurt.
The Ice Empress, however, nodded mercilessly: "Very much."
She just disliked the scent of other people on him. Hmm... the Snow Empress didn't count. If the Snow Empress's scent mixed with his, it was actually quite pleasant.
Kong Mingan was momentarily helpless. After thinking for a moment, he nodded, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to the Great Ice Empress."
With that, Kong Mingan walked straight into the adjacent bathroom. A moment later, the sound of trickling water began. The Ice Empress let out a slight sigh of relief, returned to the sofa in the room, and opened the "spiritual pivot Network" to continue passing the time.
A moment later, the Ice Empress was curled up on the sofa when she heard a voice from the bathroom: "Ice Empress, help me grab my clothes, they're in the wardrobe."
The Ice Empress was stunned, then frowned slightly, "Can't you get them yourself!"
"It's inconvenient."
The Ice Empress still frowned. Based on her understanding of this fellow, he was likely up to something, so the best choice was to ignore his request... "Are you scared?"
A light laugh came from the bathroom, and the Ice Empress immediately couldn't hold back. She snapped, "It's just grabbing clothes! Who's scared of you!"
After speaking, the Ice Empress opened the wardrobe and picked out an outfit she found pleasing. But after thinking about it, the Ice Empress cautiously crumpled the clothes into a ball, then used ice to lift the ball and carefully delivered it to the bathroom door. After confirming there were no issues, the Ice Empress nodded in satisfaction, "Alright, take it yourself!"
After she finished speaking, the bathroom door opened a crack, letting out a faint mist of water, and then...
A dark red chain suddenly extended from behind the Ice Empress, completely binding her!
The Ice Empress instantly felt that something terrible was happening: "What are you trying to do?"
"Let's go together."
The young man smiled faintly. In that instant, the Ice Empress immediately realized that this fellow wanted to bully her again!
Without the slightest hesitation, the Ice Empress subconsciously tried to break free from the chains and run, but the next moment she felt the spirit power within her body fall silent. Not only her spirit power, but even her Physical Body strength was sealed!
At this moment, she was practically no different from an ordinary person.
"You're cheating again!"
The Ice Empress tried to protest, but before she finished speaking, the chain coiled, and she was summarily pulled into the bathroom.
"Bang."
The bathroom door was closed, and faint accusations and defiant noises emerged, but before long, the defiance turned into pleas for mercy, which echoed from inside.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
On the other side, because the Shrek competition team had many accompanying staff and students, their traveling speed was not fast this time. They departed from Shrek Academy and spent more than half a month in total to arrive at the military station near the Mingdou Mountain Range. Of course, since they had allocated ample time, they were not in a hurry.
After meeting with the garrison leader stationed there, led by two Super Douluo, the Shrek group temporarily settled down in the military camp and began resting and recuperating.
Inside the military tent, Cai Meier slowly walked out and addressed the many students before her: "I already explained matters concerning the Shrek Monitoring Group on the road. I believe everyone has a basic understanding, so I won't elaborate further here—
"The target of this mission is a four-person Evil Soul Master gang, all at the Spirit KingRank. "For this mission, all main team members will participate. Reserve members may voluntarily choose whether to take part. "Principal Xian Lin'er and three Spirit Douluo-Rank teachers will follow along the entire time to ensure your safety, but we will not intervene unless absolutely necessary.
"Now, make your choice."
Cai Meier looked at the reserve members in front of her, awaiting their decision. Previously, such missions for the Shrek Monitoring Group were mandatory, even serving as part of the assessment content for the Shrek Inner Court. However, as cooperation with the Mingmeng Chamber of Commerce deepened, the Shrek Monitoring Group and the original assessment system were both abolished under Zhang Lexuan's promotion. For hunting missions targeting Evil Soul Masters, Spirit Masters at least two major Ranks higher than the average Rank of the target are usually dispatched now to ensure absolute safety and efficiency. This current mission, in essence, is not a hunting mission, but rather a practical combat drill.
