Douluo Dalu The Story Of Sheng Feilong - Chapter 225 Leaving Shrek Behind

Without further ado, Sheng Feilong, Huang Jialong, Yuanen Yehui and She Meixiao made their way towards the exit of Shrek Academy, leaving Yun Ming and the Sea God Pavilion’s Elders standing by the crowds and around Tang Wulin’s group.

Many of them were staring at Sheng Feilong and She Meixiao with angry, or at least disapproving looks. They couldn’t fully blame Sheng Feilong for the fights that ensued, but he constantly insulted them and the academy. As if that hadn’t been enough, She Meixiao, someone who none of them could do anything against, had to push it even further, making it so that even their Headmaster was forced to take it laying down.

Ye Xinglan, Yue Zhengyu and Xu Lizhi were amongst those; They were the last of their group that were still conscious and also the ones with the best relationship to Sheng Feilong, safe for Jiang Wang. Yet, even they couldn’t hide their anger about a former teammate defeating all of them.

For a long while at first, She Meixiao didn’t say anything and only kept a small smile on her face. Only after they left the confines of Shrek Academy did she tell Sheng Feilong and the others that she had been watching from start to finish.

Sheng Feilong flinched, thinking he had made things difficult for her, but She Meixiao only laughed seeing his conflicted expression. “There’s no need to worry. Originally, I thought that the three of you would join the date festival and thus went to watch it together with Yun Ming and the others. Us Titled Douluos were meant to make a grand entrance, but we waited, hidden in the clouds after Xie Xie challenged you.”

“…He had it coming for himself.” Sheng Feilong said mumbled after a while, his expression turning sour. Yuanen Yehui also showed a displeased expression when remembering Xie Xie, but couldn’t help but smile as she glanced at Sheng Feilong.

She Meixiao noticed this and showed a slick smile, one to which Huang Jialong could only sigh, before she started teasing Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui. “You did really well in protecting you little wife; Not every woman is as lucky. Hah, your Master, I, might get jealous…” She could barely contain herself from giggling while Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui turned beet red.

Coughing to try to hide his embarrassment, Sheng Feilong replied in a forcefully calm tone. “He- He simply went to far with what he said. Spouting nonsense about… stealing Yehui away despite knowing what happened and even insulting me, and Master.”

“Oh, so you were also thinking about me? Why, thank you.” She Meixiao continued to giggle, allowing Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui to calm down somewhat. After a few seconds, Sheng Feilong tried to change the subject to make it easier on himself. “Right, Master, you said you wanted to go to Shrek Academy for some kind of business. Did everything go well?”

She Meixiao’s expression fell somewhat and she sighed lightly before shaking her head. “Well, not quite. Shrek Academy refused, but I guess it doesn’t matter if I tell you in this case. Have you heard about the Demon Island that is under Shrek Academy’s jurisdiction?”

All three of them, including Huang Jialong, shook their heads; None of them had heard about such an island before. She Meixiao quickly made sure that there was no one listening in as this wasn’t something everyone should know of, then continued to speak. “A 1.000 years ago, a weird island suddenly appeared in the ocean with powerful destructive energy on it. Shrek Academy sent people there to investigate, but none of them returned. Afterwards, they sent the then-current Shrek’s Seven Monsters there, but even they vanished without a trace.”

She paused for a moment, looking at the others; They were surprised, but still keeping calm. While the Shrek’s Seven Monsters were strong, Sheng Feilong had just proven that they weren’t unbeatable, so they weren’t too shocked. “Somehow, over the course of many years, Shrek Academy turned that island into a training place for their best students. Every generation of their Seven Monsters is sent there to train. And I tried to get spots there for the three of you, as well.”

“A place for the strongest of Shrek to train at, despite the enormous amounts of negative and destructive energy there. ‘If they can become much stronger through this training, what about us, who possess Spirit Essences with similar elements?’ That was what I was thinking.” She Meixiao said while they were boarding a Soul Train to return to the Daedalus headquarters.

“…I can understand why they refused.” Huang Jialong frowned, but couldn’t help but agree with Shrek’s decision. Nodding at his words, She Meiciao agreed as well. “I did try to tempt them with quite a few offers, but considering Shrek’s resources as well as what happened at the Star Luo Continent, I was doubtful whether they would accept in the first place. Though it was certainly worth a try.”

Sheng Feilong looked at She Meixiao with slight discomfort; The latter noticed his look and simply smiled again. “It’s not your fault. Our talks were already over before we came to see the date festival. Honestly, it was really refreshing to see the faces of those arrogant Elders fall while you easily beat up their precious Seven Monsters…”

An awkward lauhg was all Sheng Feilong forced out, dropping the matter. The four of them talked for a while longer before Sheng Feilong, Huang Jialong and Yuanen Yehui started to use the time to cultivate while She Meixiao watched over them, making sure no one disturbed them.

They returned to the Daedalus headquarters a few hours later where Sheng Feilong reported what happened to Song Weihan. Yuanen Yehui came with him while Huang Jialong and She Meixiao returned to She Meixiao’s office for the time being.

Song Weihan laughed heartily at the story Sheng Feilong told him; He wasn’t a fan of Shrek Academy, regardless of whether they were responsible for the Sheng Clan’s demise or not – It was already bad enough that they failed to protect Sheng Feilong during the terrorist attack on the Soul Train.

At the end of the story, Sheng Feilong sighed with a frown on his face. “Still, I can’t help but think that I’ve gone a bit too far… I mean, I don’t pity Xie Xie in the slightest; He deserved it and I probably would’ve beat him up a bit more if I wasn’t so annoyed about being pulled into that date festival, but I don’t think it had to escalate so much with the rest of them, especially Jiang Wang…”

“Well, forcing Tang Wulin to kowtow beneath your feet does sound a bit excessive. It provoked the others to act, to begin with. Though I don’t think teaching him a lesson was wrong.” Song Weihan said, understanding that Sheng Feilong didn’t want things to end like they did.

Yuanen Yehui looked at Sheng Feilong, sharing Song weihan’s opinion. “Tang Wulin… got what he deserved. He didn’t know what really happened, didn’t listen to you and only got mad because of Xie Xie. I don’t know what happened to him, but his arrogance and blind faith in Shrek are what brought this upon him.”

Seeing Sheng Feilong still frowning, Song Weihan spoke up again. “Well, he is the leader of Shrek’s Seven Monsters; He’ll get over it. If anything, the beating you gave him will incite all of them to train more and become even stronger. I don’t think that what you did was bad at all.”

Sheng Feilong nodded his head, not saying anything else about the topic. Talking with Song Weihan for a while longer, the latter threw them out of his office a in the evening. “You two return to your quarters for now. Tomorrow will be your day off and we’ll continue to train normally the day after.”

Walking down the halls with Yuanen Yehui, Sheng Feilong was surprisingly silent. Although both she and Song Weihan had already told him that they thought he did the right thing, he still wasn’t too sure himself.

“Alright, see you tomorrow.” The two of them stopped in front of Sheng Feilong’s room, where Yuanen Yehui smiled saying her goodbyes. Sheng Feilong only nodded his head in response, causing her to frown lightly. “Are you okay?”

“…Are you really okay with what happened at Shrek?” He looked Yuanen Yehui in the eyes, surprising her. “Back when we asked you to join Daedalus, you were searching for Tang Wulin. The others… They were your closest friends, right? Today, you finally got to see them again after years and it… it ended like that because of me.”
