Chapter 33: Chapter 34: Screams In The Night
After Zhao Wuji left, Ling Mo and the others were arranged dormitories by Dai Mubai, but when arranging dormitories for Ling Mo and Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai hesitated.
Because Shrek Academy originally didn’t have many dormitories, and not many people! Basically two per room.
Tang San and Oscar shared a dormitory, Dai Mubai and the yet-to-appear Ma Hongjun shared one, leaving Ling Mo as the odd one out.
On the girls’ dormitory side, similarly Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong shared one, leaving Zhu Zhuqing in her own dormitory.
Obviously… Ling Mo had no dormitory available to live in. Who knows why this Dai Mubai was so ruthless, he spent money to build an extra room for someone else, but just wouldn’t give Ling Mo the opportunity to succeed.
Actually, sharing a dormitory with Zhu Zhuqing would have been acceptable to Ling Mo! He just didn’t expect Dai Mubai to be so resolute, building a small civilian house in just one day.
In terms of specifications, it was even more luxurious than theirs. This kid really went all out.
For this reason, Ling Mo increasingly disliked this guy. Damn it, daring to ruin my good thing!
If not for that, by the time Ling Mo graduated, the baby would probably have been born!
Cough cough, just kidding…
However, Ling Mo’s dormitory was built right next to the boys’ dormitory, very close to the small forest behind!
Therefore… late at night, screams suddenly came from the forest, startling Ling Mo so much he couldn’t sleep.
“My goodness, these screams are louder than thunder!”
After observing from the dormitory window for a while, Ling Mo got up to check, but halfway there he turned back, and before reaching the dormitory he hesitated again.
“Wait, if I remember correctly, Flander should be in the small forest at this time, right?”
Suddenly realizing this issue, thinking about how to deal with Flander tomorrow made Ling Mo’s head ache terribly.
At this moment, if he used Tang Hao’s deterrence to suppress the scene, would things be easier for him?
Thinking of this, Ling Mo revealed an evil smile, gradually becoming brazen.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was instantly unleashed. Ling Mo passed through the small forest, and under the moonlight at night, with the astonishing vision of his Dual Pupils, Ling Mo clearly saw three people in the forest.
Under that big tree, Zhao Wuji was sprawled on the ground with a bruised and swollen face, while Flander stood quietly in place, not even daring to move.
And that figure in the darkness, Ling Mo recognized at a glance—it was the long-disappeared Tang Hao.
“Yo, so lively! I thought thieves had broken into the academy…”
Ling Mo suddenly intruded, startling Flander and Zhao Wuji. After all, the renowned Haotian Douluo was standing before them right now; they didn’t even dare to breathe.
At this moment, a student suddenly barged in—how could they not be anxious? Shrek Academy was their life’s work; they couldn’t tolerate any danger to a student, even if it meant fighting Tang Hao to the death, they would do it without hesitation.
“What are you doing here? Go back…”
Flander recognized Ling Mo at a glance and gave a cold shout, wanting to scold him back.
Zhao Wuji struggled even harder to stand up. “Brat, what are you doing up in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?”
They didn’t know about the relationship between Ling Mo and Tang Hao, so they were very worried. If Tang Hao took his anger out on Ling Mo, could they protect this child?
“Your Excellency, this child is young and has suddenly offended you. Please forgive him. I’ll send him back right now…”
Flander was already drenched in sweat. This Haotian Douluo had been missing for a long time and suddenly appeared—this was already a huge secret!
Now that it was discovered by someone, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t kill to silence them.
“What’s going on! You all look so nervous…”
Ling Mo was also startled by the reactions of Flander and Zhao Wuji. He didn’t expect these two to care about him so much.
This really made it a bit hard for him to handle. In this world for so long, aside from Village Chief Ultraman, only Master had been this good to him.
Ling Mo was very moved by the reactions of Flander and Zhao Wuji. He naturally understood the mystery behind it, but… it was unnecessary.
“Long time no see, Uncle Tang…”
Ignoring everything, Ling Mo walked over with a cheeky grin. Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, then said grumpily, “Brat! It’s been years, and you’re still so improper…”
Tang Hao’s one sentence shocked Flander and Zhao Wuji into standing stunned in place. What? They knew each other?
Originally, Flander and Zhao Wuji had guessed that Tang Hao came for Tang San, since they shared the surname Tang.
Now it seemed Ling Mo also knew Tang Hao—this really scared them!
But next, they felt relieved. Since they naturally knew each other, Ling Mo wouldn’t be in any danger.
From their conversation, it was more like an elder’s care for a junior.
“Hehe, I didn’t get a chance to thank you last time…” Ling Mo laughed.
“Last time? So you already knew it was me who acted?”
Tang Hao suddenly realized a problem. Last time he acted very covertly, yet Ling Mo had already recognized him!
“Hehe, Uncle, did you forget? My Dual Pupils are a Martial Soul after all!”
“Hm! True, your secrets aren’t fewer than mine!”
Tang Hao said coldly. These past few years, he had been paying attention to Ling Mo.
He discovered that this kid was all about grave robbery. Last time, he nearly dug up a grave from his Haotian Sect. Fortunately, Tang Hao acted in time and scared him away.
“My secrets? I have no secrets. How dare I have any secrets in front of you…” Ling Mo feigned ignorance.
At first glance, he really seemed like an obedient and law-abiding youth.
“Brat, what are you doing here?”
Tang Hao’s face darkened, not believing Ling Mo at all. This kid never spoke a truthful word. Tang Hao didn’t want to waste time here and asked directly.
He had observed Ling Mo for six years and had long acknowledged his existence in his heart.
Just based on Ling Mo’s care for Tang San over these six years, he would never hurt him.
He was a negligent father, while Ling Mo had more of the role of a qualified brother!
He took excellent care of Tang San, and Tang Hao had seen it all! Regardless of Ling Mo’s mindset, Tang Hao had already acknowledged him in his heart.
“Uncle, why did you suddenly visit Shrek Academy today? Is there something to do? These two are my academy teachers. If they offended you, I hope you’ll show mercy…”
This was what Ling Mo came for from the start—to make the following days easier.
With a Titled Douluo’s deterrence, even if Flander wanted to settle accounts with him, he wouldn’t dare!
“Offended? Not quite, but I have a few things to ask of your two teachers!”
Tang Hao said coldly, seemingly without guilt over what he had just done.
In the world, probably only he could do such a thing—clearly needing a favor, yet insisting on beating you first until you submitted before asking for help.
“This… Uncle is indeed the fiercest man on the continent, even asking for favors in such a fresh and refined way…”
Ling Mo was also speechless. Poor Zhao Wuji was beaten so badly even his mother wouldn’t recognize him.
With Ling Mo saying that, Tang Hao felt a bit embarrassed. Although he had imparted a lot of experience to Zhao Wuji just now, it wasn’t enough to compensate for the trauma in his heart.
“What are you trying to say?” Tang Hao’s face darkened terribly. This kid had turned traitor and wanted to pit his old man!
Familiar with Ling Mo’s personality, Tang Hao knew at once from his sarcastic words that he was about to extract something next.
“Uncle, in the Star Dou Great Forest, there’s a Lake of Life with a Five-Colored Emperor Flower by the lakeside! That thing is a top-grade treasure. How about you get it for me, and I’ll help heal Teacher Zhao?”
Ling Mo’s eyes turned, suddenly remembering a treasure—that flower by the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.
He had seen it but lacked the ability to obtain it, so he wanted to ask Tang Hao!
“You brat, quite the businessman! But do you think this little thing you’ve done is worth me taking the risk?”
Tang Hao said coldly. He wasn’t afraid of those two things in the Star Dou Great Forest.
“Uh… that does seem to be the case!”
