On the other side, Wu Changkong, who was supporting Shen Yi, glanced sideways at the former and said, "Shen Yi, regarding what you heard earlier, I hope you don't tell anyone."
Shen Yi frowned, "Elder brother, can't I tell Teacher Wu either?"
She had originally planned to tell Turbid World everything about Xu Sheng and what occurred between them as soon as she left Wu Changkong!
Wu Changkong's tone was firm as he spoke, "No! Resurrecting the deceased is considered impossible by everyone, including our teacher!"
After a pause, he added solemnly, "But I personally witnessed Xu Sheng reincarnating Bing'er's soul and communicating with me. That's why I chose to believe in him."
Hearing this explanation, realization dawned in Shen Yi's beautiful eyes, "So that was it!"
If elder brother cannot be that easily deceived, then it means that Xu Sheng truly has the ability to resurrect the deceased!
With this thought, she nodded and said, "Mhm! I understand, I won't tell the teacher. However, elder brother, if Xu Sheng does anything wrong, don't try to tough it out alone. Behind us stands the entirety of Shrek Academy!"
Though her doubts were lessened, she couldn't fully trust Xu Sheng!
Seeing her agree, Wu Changkong softened into a rare smile, reached out and gently ruffled her hair saying, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out...
"What's going on? Why are you two so happy?"
It was none other than Wu Changkong and Shen Yi's teacher, Turbid World!
To see their relationship had not become distant due to not having seen each other for many years naturally brought relief to his heart.
But his stubborn character still made him maintain an indifferent demeanor...
Seeing Turbid World's sudden appearance, Wu Changkong and Shen Yi respectfully greeted, "Teacher!"
Then, Shen Yi blinked her beautiful eyes and chirped with a light laugh, "Teacher, we were just happy at the thought of seeing you so soon!"
Turbid World gave her a dismissive look, "You're sweet-tongued!"
Immediately after, he turned his gaze toward Wu Changkong with a slightly irked tone, "What about you? After coming back this time, do you plan to leave again?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong pressed his lips together before nodding, "Yes! Teacher, I will have to leave soon, as there is another important matter I need to attend to."
In his words, there was a very serious tone...
This scene made Turbid World slightly narrow his eyes, "Is it really more important than this old man?"
Wu Changkong chose to remain silent at once, bowing his head slightly, "...."
Both Long Bing and Turbid World were of utmost importance to him!
Turbid World's expression cooled instantly, the annoyance in his tone growing, "Hmph, if you still need to leave, then why did you come back at all?"
To be honest, it was impossible not to feel angry! He had thought Wu Changkong had come to his senses and would choose to stay at Shrek Academy.
Yet to his surprise, the latter planned to leave again!
Wu Changkong took a deep breath, looked up, and firmly said one word at a time, "Teacher... I promise you, once I've finished this matter, I will return to Shrek Academy and never leave again!"
At the same time, Shen Yi moved to Turbid World's side, wrapping her arms affectionately around his and playfully tugged, saying, "Teacher, you heard what elder brother said, he definitely won't go back on his word. You know his character best, don't you?"
After glancing at Wu Changkong's sincere expression, Turbid World's face eased somewhat, but he couldn't help retorting, "Hmph! If you dare, then don't come back at all!"
With that said, he turned and started walking forward with Shen Yi...
Wu Changkong watched their departing figures, bowed slightly, and then turned to leave...
Sensing that Wu Changkong's presence had disappeared behind him, Turbid World finally turned his gaze to Shen Yi, suspiciously saying, "Shen Yi, are you and Longkong hiding something from me!"
He always felt that something was not quite right. Weren't they just having a pleasant conversation? Why did it stop as soon as he appeared...
Shen Yi's cheeks tensed, and he answered without changing his expression, "Teacher, I wouldn't dare to hide anything from you, don't overthink it!"
Truly a teacher, even able to sense this...
After careful contemplation, Turbid World finally spoke, "I trust you wouldn't dare, otherwise, it would have been a waste of affection!"
Shen Yi sighed with relief internally and immediately changed the subject, saying, "Teacher, how could you say that! In the eyes of both my senior and me, you are the most respectable person."
"However, Teacher, what do you think about Xu Sheng???"
…
A few days later, Xu Sheng had already finished touring the entire Shrek Academy and immediately returned to East Sea Academy with Wu Changkong...
Upon their return, Yu Zhen with a blossoming smile said, "Teacher Wu, Teacher Xu, welcome back, how was your trip these past few days?"
Beside him, Long Hengxu also chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, do tell us and the Principal!"
What they cared about was what Shrek Academy was like, right?
Wrong! What they cared about was that Xu Sheng and the other had returned!
Xu Sheng, propping up his chin, chuckled lightly, "Hmm, compared to East Sea Academy, Shrek Academy has a larger campus, stronger faculty, and more resources for cultivation!"
With this brief sentence, the expressions on the faces of Yu Zhen and the other darkened once more...
Was this sentence praising Shrek Academy, or was it belittling East Sea Academy?
They had no choice but to push through, saying, "Teacher Xu, it's not right for you to say that! Though our East Sea Academy can't compare to Shrek Academy, we still have some reputation in East Sea City!"
"Exactly, exactly, Teacher Xu, as a teacher of our East Sea Academy, you should understand our academy's essence!"
Seeing their meaningless words, Wu Changkong furrowed his brows and coldly said, "Principal Yu, Director Long, do you have nothing better to do?"
Hearing this, the cunning Yu Zhen, of course, understood that Wu Changkong was trying to shoo them away, and with an awkward laugh, said, "Well then... Director Long and I are going to organize the list of students enrolling for the new term, so we'll take our leave!"
After finishing, they hurriedly left...
Only then did Wu Changkong turn his gaze to Xu Sheng, saying coldly, "Teacher Xu, can you now tell me how to resurrect Bing'er? My patience is limited!"
The latter sentence was clearly a reminder to Xu Sheng not to keep fobbing him off!
Xu Sheng slightly paused, but was not annoyed, "Of course, first, we need to make a trip to Long Bing's grave."
Wu Changkong, puzzled, asked, "What for?"
Xu Sheng simply glanced at the former, calmly responding, "To resurrect her body!"
Xu Sheng could resurrect Long Bing at any time if he wished, but he didn't want Wu Changkong to think that bringing someone back from the dead was easy!
Therefore, he planned to give him some challenges to see just how strong his resolve to resurrect Long Bing really was!
