After the rage subsided, it was replaced with an indescribable sense of yearning.

At this point, Wang Dong’er only had one thought in her head. 

As long as you return, I won’t probe further. I believe that you love me. Yuhao, please come back!

At that moment, she started crying. She was so heartbroken that she cried for an entire night. When she crawled up the next morning, she continued to look for him.

It was only yesterday that she felt a little hopeless when she returned to the Sea God’s Pavilion. Her mindset had changed once again.

Yuhao, come back. If you come back, I won’t be angry as long as you are well, alive and fine no matter what your choice is. If you still love me, I’m willing to share you with her. Yuhao, come back, please come back.! I’m waiting for you! No matter how long it takes, I’ll wait for you...

As a result, she went back to his room and sat there quietly.

Bei Bei and the rest came over. Even Yan Shaozhe and Elder Xuan visited her. However, Wang Dong’er didn’t listen to any of their words. She was already completely immersed in her own world. There was only Huo Yuhao there.

It was only after Huo Yuhao disappeared that she fully understood how deeply she loved him.

She was scared that Huo Yuhao would be like Tang Ya and Ma Xiaotao, leaving without returning.

Yuhao, will you come back? No matter what you want, I’ll promise it! Anything as long as you return!

Tears started to flow down her face once again. Wang Dong’er stood up slowly and walked over in front of Huo Yuhao’s bed. She quietly sat down before lying down on it. She hugged his pillow and sniffed the remnants of his scent on it. She was sobbing pitifully.

So, loving someone is actually so tormenting and unforgettable. Yuhao, Yuhao, do you know that? Where are you exactly? As long as you can come back fine, I’m willing to exchange my life. I just want to see you well, even if we can’t get together.

Sunlight shone into the room through the window, projecting the jagged shadows of trees into the room. The refreshing air the outside seeped into the room and gently diffused.

“Dong’er, Dong’er!” At this moment, an anxious voice was calling out distantly

Wang Dong’er didn’t move. Right now, she was completely immersed in Huo Yuhao’s memory.

The door opened, a purplish figure burst into the room and found Wang Dong’er after scanning the room momentarily.

“Dong’er, quick! Quickly get up! Yuhao, Yuhao is back!”

The word ‘Yuhao’ was like a bell to Wang Dong’er. She instantly bounced up from the bed, and her emotionless eyes became vibrant again. She was looking at the equally ravishing lady that had rushed into the room.

The lady who had rushed into the room was the fourth member of Shrek’s Seven Monsters, Jiang Nannan.

Jiang Nannan had an outraged look on her face. Something seemed to have infuriated her.

“Really, really… is he really back?” Wang Dong’er’s voice was trembling slightly, as was her petite figure.

Jiang Nannan couldn’t stand her haggard look. She wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.

“Sister Nannan, is he really back? Tell me, tell me!” Wang Dong’er grabbed onto her shoulder, and the anxiety in her eyes surged with the tears that flowed down uncontrollably.

Jiang Nannan was still indignant as she told Wang Dong’er, “Yes, he’s back. However, he came back with Wang Qiu’er.

“Huo Yuhao, that scoundrel! I won’t let him off. You treat him so nice, but he went out with Wang Qiu’er. They just returned! I saw them outside the academy before I immediately rushed here to inform you. Dong’er, what are you doing? Don’t go! That scoundrel…!”

Before she could finish speaking, Wang Dong’er had already rushed out through the window. Her Radiant Butterfly Goddess’ wings flapped open and carried her in the direction of Shrek Academy’s gate.

Jiang Nannan sighed and muttered to herself, “More care, more trouble... more care, more trouble! Fortunately, I informed Bei Bei and the rest. Huo Yuhao, you are a bastard! I won’t let you off. Dong’er sacrificed so much for you, but you chose to be with another woman. Hmph!”

As she spoke, she also quickened her footsteps. This was the Sea God’s Pavilion. She didn’t dare to jump out of the window like Wang Dong’er had. She backtracked along her original route and left the Sea God’s Pavilion quickly, heading straight for the gate.

------

Going straight all the way from Shrek Academy’s gate would lead one to the shore of the Sea God’s Lake. Proceeding down the paths that wound along the shore would lead to the inner courtyard. There was also a statue at the end of each of these paths.

At this moment, a tough-looking lady was surrounded in front of one of these statues.

Bei Bei, He Caitou, Xu Sanshi, and Xiao Xiao all looked a little unfriendly. The person who was surrounded by them was Wang Qiu’er, who had been missing for ten days. She was carrying someone on her back, and that person was Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao looked very weird. He seemed to be asleep on her back, and was evidently not clad in his own clothing. His drooping hands were also wrapped up. There was a satisfied smile on his face, and there was even a white flower stuck closely to one side of his face. He appeared very strange.

“Make way!” Wang Qiu’er said coldly.

Even Bei Bei, who was normally very refined, looked slightly infuriated now. “Wang Qiu’er, what happened to Yuhao? He went out with you?”

Wang Qiu’er replied coldly, “That’s right, he went out with me.”

“The two of you, how can the two of you…?” Xiao Xiao said righteously.

Wang Qiu’er scoffed, “Why can’t we?”

“You…” Xiao Xiao was so angry that her face turned red. She was about to rush up, but He Caitou pulled her arm back. They knew that Wang Qiu’er’s abilities were extraordinary. Xiao Xiao was likely to suffer if she attacked like that.

Xu Sanshi said in a deep voice, “Wang Qiu’er, pass Huo Yuhao to us. What happened to him? Why did you carry him back? Where did the two of you go?”

Wang Qiu’er didn’t answer his questions. “Where’s Wang Dong’er? Huo Yuhao is back, but where is she?”

“Are you trying to assert your authority over her?” Xiao Xiao asked furiously. As she spoke, two yellow, two purple and one black soul ring rose from her feet. A black cauldron also subtly appeared. She was ready to attack now!

Wang Qiu’er was still fearless. Her eyes were extremely focused, and a dangerous aura was being exuded from her body.

Bei Bei said unkindly, “Wang Qiu’er, Yuhao’s disappearance must be related to you, even though we don’t know what happened. If you are unwilling to hand him over, don’t blame us for being unkind.”

He was a little worried about Huo Yuhao’s condition. With his cultivation, how could he possibly be sleeping on Wang Qiu’er’s back? Something must have happened!

Wang Qiu’er acted like she didn’t hear his threat. She continued to say coldly, “Where’s Wang Dong’er?”

Bei Bei snorted coldly. His soul rings rose from his feet. He was really angry now. They had been looking for Huo Yuhao for ten days! They had been seeing Wang Dong’er’s pale face every day. Even he was unhappy with Huo Yuhao, a junior that he had always liked.

Seeing that Bei Bei had unleashed his soul rings, He Caitou immediately jumped backward, and heavy soul cannons appeared on his shoulders. Xu Sanshi took a step forward and unleashed his Shield of the Xuanwu Turtle. Although only four of the members of Shrek’s Seven Monsters were here, their coordination was still decent.

Wang Qiu’er stood there without moving and only looked at them coldly. “I won’t fight with all of you. It’ll only hurt him. Call Wang Dong’er over.”

Xu Sanshi snorted furiously. He took a step forward and was about to attack Wang Qiu’er with his shield.

At this point, a bright blue streak descended from the sky as a hoarse voice called out, “Yuhao, where’s Yuhao?”

Wang Dong’er descended from the sky and landed several meters in front of Wang Qiu’er.

After seeing Wang Dong’er, Wang Qiu’er was slightly stunned. Her complexion looked very unhealthy, and it seemed that she had become extremely lifeless. Her body was much thinner, and she even looked a little out of shape. Only ten days had passed! Her life seemed to have diminished.

Wang Dong’er didn’t look at Wang Qiu’er. She was fixated on Huo Yuhao’s body, and exclaimed in sorrow, “Yuhao, what happened to you?” As she spoke, she rushed towards Wang Qiu’er. She had only taken a glance at him, but had already realized that something wasn’t right. Their connection was very close since they had formed martial soul fusion skills together. However, Wang Dong’er clearly couldn’t feel his powerful martial souls in his body right now.

Wang Qiu’er lifted her hand to block Wang Dong’er.

Wang Dong’er was stunned for a moment before looking at her. As their gazes met, Wang Qiu’er saw the look of sadness and heartache in Wang Dong’er’s eyes, while Wang Dong’er only saw loneliness in Wang Qiu’er’s eyes.

“I’ll hand him over to you, but you need to hear what I want to say first,” Wang Qiu’er said.

Wang Dong’er said anxiously, “What, what happened to him? Can you tell me after I’ve taken a look at him?”

Wang Qiu’er said coldly, “Don’t worry, he won’t die.”

Wang Dong’er calmed herself down and nodded. She replied, “Alright, tell me.”

“No.” Bei Bei came up beside Wang Dong’er and interrupted her.

Wang Dong’er’s body was very weak now. Everyone believed that Wang Qiu’er had nothing good to say. What if Wang Dong’er was provoked?
