Her face, usually cold as ice, showed a hint of anger, her beautiful eyes furrowing.
The golden-haired man Zhou Sidong described sounded very similar to the person she was looking for at Shrek Academy.
"Absolutely true. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Rose Hotel in Soto City and find out for yourself. That golden-haired man is called Dai Mubai, and he seems to be a VIP there. It shouldn't be hard to find out more."
As Zhou Sidong finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing's face darkened again, her delicate fists clenched tightly.
Zhu Zhuqing sighed softly, "Thank you for telling me this, but I'm curious. Why are you telling me all this? And… is Shrek Academy really that bad?"
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's confusion, Zhou Sidong smiled, "My name is Zhou Sidong. The one who saved you earlier was my mother, and my father was in the carriage. Our family just passed through Soto City, and what I described happened five days ago in Soto City.
As for why I told you all this..."
Zhou Sidong sized Zhu Zhuqing up and down, noticing her incredibly curvaceous figure, which was completely out of proportion for a twelve-year-old.
Perhaps sensing Zhou Sidong's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed slightly. She rolled her eyes at him, thinking, Men are all the same.
"Ahem..." Zhou Sidong coughed and said solemnly, "I apologize. The Shrek Academy you're heading to has a playboy named Dai Mubai. That guy goes on three dates a day, and they're never the same. I'm afraid he might... try something with you. After all, you're a young girl alone, without family around. It's easy for danger to arise."
Zhu Zhuqing was slightly taken aback. So that's why he was so insistent about me not going to Shrek Academy. I misunderstood him.
"I'm sorry, my name is Zhu Zhuqing."
Zhu Zhuqing said apologetically, "I absolutely must go to Shrek Academy. To be honest, I know this Dai Mubai. He won't do anything to me."
Since Zhu Zhuqing insisted on going to Shrek Academy, Zhou Sidong didn't want to say anything more.
Before she left, Zhou Sidong added, "Miss Zhu Zhuqing, remember to protect yourself when you're alone. Besides watching out for Dai Mubai at Shrek Academy, there's also a short, fat guy named Ma Hongjun. That guy is just as bad as Dai Mubai and is another lecher who frequents brothels. Also, Shrek Academy is currently on the verge of bankruptcy. I think after you go there, Flender from Shrek Academy will inevitably exploit you and the other students, or he'll make you participate in battles at the Great Soul Arena to cover the academy's expenses."
"And most importantly…" Zhou Sidong hesitated.
Zhu Zhuqing looked serious, listening quietly to Zhou Sidong's final words.
"Always keep a clear head. The people there are, more or less, a little crazy, especially those who like to use hidden weapons. They're the most detestable."
"Miss Zhu Zhuqing, farewell." Zhou Sidong clasped his hands and smiled.
"Farewell," Zhu Zhuqing clasped her hands, a hint of a smile on her lips.
After saying goodbye to Zhu Zhuqing, Zhou Sidong stepped onto the carriage, and his family continued on towards Heaven Dou City.
After watching the good people leave, Zhu Zhuqing continued on her way to Soto City. She slowed her pace, planning to go to the Rose Hotel to verify some things before going to Shrek Academy.
"Mom, you've been going on and on about it the whole way. That girl going to Shrek Academy has an objective, and how could she possibly be interested in me the first time we met?"
Zhou Sidong helplessly poked his head out the window. Perhaps it was because he was growing up, but people in the Douluo Continent world were generally precocious. There were many people his age already with girlfriends.
This time, Zhou Sidong's family was moving to Heaven Dou City. Zhou Sidong had many objectives.
As for things like romance... he'd leave it to fate.
Zhu Zhuqing, she seemed pretty good. The Shrek Seven Devils, if he could break one of them up, that'd be something.
The morning of the ninth day.
The family, weary from their journey, got off the carriage and headed straight for Heaven Dou City.
Zhou Sidong had traveled in a carriage for half a month, and he never wanted to do it again. The constant jolting was bad enough, but it was impossible to sleep comfortably.
The family of three walked to the foot of Heaven Dou City.
As the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City's walls were a hundred meters high, constructed entirely of granite. The guards at the gate had solemn expressions and held steel spears, standing tall and gazing forward. A sense of killing intent permeated the air. The main gate was closed, with only the side gates open for entry.
It was completely different from Soto City, which Zhou Sidong had seen half a month ago. The difference in scale was simply incomparable.
Truly worthy of being the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Besides the soldiers guarding the gate, there was a crowd of people coming and going, and a group of others. The leader was an old man with gray hair, an ordinary appearance, and dressed in the exclusive attire of the Spirit Hall. He was positioned among the crowd and seemed to hold a high status.
Zhou Shijie brought his wife and child here and, upon seeing the old man, his eyes immediately welled up with tears.
"Teacher!"
Zhou Shijie quickened his pace, not expecting his teacher to personally come to the city gate to welcome him.
Zhou Sidong looked at the old man in front of him. This person was Salas, the bishop of the Spirit Hall, responsible for all matters related to the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City. He hadn't expected him to be his father's teacher; it certainly made things convenient.
With Salas here, meeting his sister, whom he had never met before, wouldn't be a problem.
"Shijie, get up, quickly get up!" Salas said with a comforting laugh, "It's been twelve years since we, master and disciple, have seen each other. I've gotten old, and so have you, hahaha!"
"Teacher!" Zhou Shijie's eyes were red, and he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He didn't want to cry in front of his wife and children.
"Greetings, Bishop."
Yang Lixia came before Salas and was about to bow when Salas stopped her.
"Alright, we're all family. I'm too happy that my disciple has returned."
At this moment, Salas's gaze clearly fell upon Zhou Sidong, who was standing beside Yang Lixia.
Looking at the figure before him, Salas visibly froze, his expression becoming unnatural, his hands trembling slightly.
"Po… Pope…"
"No no!"
Salas shook his head vigorously. The child in front of him looked too much like the Pope.
Especially the hairstyle, the attire, and the appearance, all shared some similarities.
As the saying goes, sons take after their mothers, and daughters take after their fathers. It was only natural for Zhou Sidong to inherit some of Bibi Dong's features.
"What's wrong, Teacher?"
Seeing the change in Salas's expression, Zhou Shijie quickly asked.
Salas waved his hand, smiling. "Nothing, nothing at all. Just thinking about a few things."
Then, pointing at Zhou Sidong, he said, "This must be your child, Zhou Sidong."
"That's right!"
Zhou Shijie nodded proudly, then immediately said, "Sidong, quickly call him Grandmaster."
"..."
"Grandmaster," Zhou Sidong said after a moment of silence.
