Not long after, the student who was guarding the academy gate found Class 1 of the first graders...
Without knowing who Gu Yue was, he loudly asked, "Who is Gu Yue?"
Hearing this, Gu Yue, who had been discussing battle armor details with Tang Wulin and the others, showed a few strands of confusion on her cheeks. She walked over and asked, "I am Gu Yue. What happened?"
The student shook his head and explained, "Nothing serious, just a woman claiming to be your sister has asked to see you specifically."
"Moreover, because Shrek Academy is on full alert and cannot let outsiders in, you have to go out to meet her yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin and the others at her side all showed a surprised expression...
Xie Xie expressed his surprise, "Gu Yue has a sister?"
Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes, "Maybe it's a cousin!"
Wang Jinxi reminded her, "Since it's your sister looking for you, Gu Yue, you should go quickly, so you don't keep someone waiting too long!"
Ye Xinglan nodded in agreement, "Yeah, we can discuss the battle armor later, we've already settled on the general plan anyway!"
Gu Yue was stunned for a moment, then said subconsciously, "I'll leave for a while then."
Her mind was all muddled at that moment; she didn't have a sister, did she?
Wait a second...
Could it be someone sent by Di Tian?
At that thought, her complexion turned anxious and she hastened towards the outside of Shrek Academy...
With many powers in Sea God's Pavilion, if her identity was discovered, the situation could become very dangerous!
...
When she reached the gate of Shrek Academy, Gu Yue looked at the beautiful woman before her, her brow furrowed as she said, "You are...?"
She could feel that this woman indeed had the aura of a soul beast, but as for who she actually was, she didn't know!
Bi Ji lowered her voice, "My lord, I'm Bi Ji!"
Hearing this, Gu Yue's pupils suddenly constricted and her tone contained some displeasure, "Bi Ji? Why have you left Di Tian and the others and come here instead of staying with the soul beasts?"
She remembered emphasizing before she left that they shouldn't come looking for her!
But Di Tian and the others completely ignored this, which of course made her upset!
Seeing the former's anger, Bi Ji hurriedly explained, "Please forgive me, my lord. Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts are very worried about you; that's why they sent me here!"
Internally, she thought, "So this is Shrek Academy, indeed full of strong individuals. I haven't even stepped inside and have been detected by several terrifying spiritual powers already!"
One could imagine that if she had revealed even a hint of her presence before arriving, she would have been discovered immediately!
Hearing this, Gu Yue's expression eased somewhat, but she still spoke, "I am very safe in Shrek Academy, and no one has discovered my identity, so you don't need to worry."
"Take this opportunity to quickly return..."
Before she could finish speaking, a familiar voice rang out from behind Gu Yue...
"Gu Yue, what are you doing here?"
The speaker was none other than Xu Sheng, wearing a smile. He too had sensed Bi Ji's presence, prompting him to come out from inside the academy!
Seeing Xu Sheng, Gu Yue's face appeared somewhat flustered as she said, "Teac...Teacher Xu!"
In her heart, Xu Sheng's strength had always been a mystery, and it was possible he could see through Bi Ji's identity as well!
As for Bi Ji beside her, her mouth twitched involuntarily upon seeing Xu Sheng clearly...
This god who hid his true identity, is he really taking pleasure in mischief? To choose this moment to appear!
After becoming alarmed, Gu Yue took a deep breath and tried to appear composed, "Teacher Xu... Teacher Xu, this is my sister, who has specially come from far away to visit me!"
The corners of Xu Sheng's mouth turned up slightly, as he stared straight at Gu Yue, "Oh, is that so?"
Under that gaze, Gu Yue felt as if her lie and true identity were laid bare...
Her heartbeat involuntarily quickened...
That intense dread coming from deep within, one simply could not comprehend without experiencing it firsthand!
Right when the atmosphere was thick with tension, Bi Ji next to her spoke up to ease it, "That's right, I am Gu Yue's sister. It's been so long since I've seen her that I got a bit worried, so I came all this way just for a visit!"
The implication in her words was very clear—she had transformed into human form out of concern for Gu Yue's safety!
Hearing this, Xu Sheng glanced at Bi Ji with a profound look and said indifferently, "Recently, Shrek Academy's team suffered an attack from the Holy Spirit Cult, so we have strengthened our vigilance. Therefore, it would be best for you to leave early to avoid any unnecessary trouble."
If he hadn't previously used Divine Power to completely shield Bi Ji's aura, she might have already been discovered by Yun Ming's spiritual power!
The latter's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she thought silently, "What does he mean, is he reminding me that Shrek Academy is now heavily guarded and I should not linger for too long?"
No… He's probably warning me!
My identity may have been exposed already!
As for why the powerhouses of Sea God's Pavilion haven't come to capture me, it is very likely that he has concealed it with some method!!
As this thought surfaced in her mind, drops of cold sweat began to form on Bi Ji's forehead...
It seems that unless it's absolutely necessary, one must never approach the vicinity of Shrek Academy!
Gu Yue, feeling guilty, heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Teacher Xu's penetrating gaze shift away...
She immediately turned to Bi Ji and urged, "Sister… Sister, Teacher Xu is right. To avoid any trouble, you should leave quickly!"
Bi Ji pressed her lips together, her eyes filled with complexity as she responded to Xu Sheng, "I see, then I will leave right away. As for my sister, I will entrust her to you, Teacher Xu!"
Xu Sheng smiled faintly, with a meaningful tone, "Of course!"
Then, after giving Gu Yue a meaningful glance, Bi Ji swiftly turned around and disappeared into the crowd...
Seeing that Xu Sheng's gaze was still following Bi Ji as she left, Gu Yue coughed slightly and said, "Teacher Xu, we should also go back. We have class soon!"
Xu Sheng came back to his senses, and without asking further, calmly said, "Alright!"
With that, he walked towards the academy with his hands clasped behind his back...
Observing his demeanor, Gu Yue couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that I've been overthinking just now?"
Indeed, though Teacher Xu is very powerful!
Bi Ji's Cultivation Level spans hundreds of thousands of years; surely it would take at least a Hyper Douluo's soul power rank to see through her!
Xu Sheng, noticing her daydreaming, chuckled lightly and said, "Gu Yue, what are you daydreaming about? Didn't you say we have a class soon?"
Gu Yue snapped out of her daze, a blush spreading across her delicate cheeks, and she quickly caught up with Xu Sheng ahead of her...
Regardless of whether Teacher Xu had discerned Bi Ji's real identity, given his carefree and easygoing nature, he probably wouldn't make things difficult for her anyway!
Why am I wasting time pondering over this here?
