The uses of the Boundless Universe Shield, Hanhai Protective Cover, Qiankun Dingshen Cover, Hanhai Kuangtao, and Qiankun Pomo skills.
"What a pity, I haven't found where the remnants of the Sea God's soul are..."
Qin Xiao thought with some regret.
Dang dang dang...
Suddenly, a series of knocks on the door echoed from outside the hall.
"What is it?"
Qin Xiao asked indifferently.
"A young lady named Meng Yiran has come to the academy and wishes to see you."
Liu Erlong's voice came from outside the door.
Meng Yiran, what does she want with me? Qin Xiao wondered, but still opened the door and walked out.
...
"Boss Dai, is this the same girl we met in the Aquipeia Forest back then?"
At the entrance of Blue Tyrant Academy, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Dai Mubai were whispering about Meng Yiran, who stood outside the academy.
"This lady is not bad, she's got the figure, the face, and that slender waist you could get your hands around, she really is a top-notch beauty."
"Slurp."
Ma Hongjun's eyes shone brightly.
"I admire her cool, arrogant temperament even more, it arouses a desire to conquer," Dai Mubai said in a grave tone.
He saw the shadow of Zhu Zhuqing in Meng Yiran.
"Tsk, shameless!"
At that moment, Ning Rongrong uttered a disdainful spit.
Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly, clearly put off by the conversation of the three men.
"Enough, this young lady may have some connection with Your Highness, so be careful with your words," Zhao Wuji frowned and scolded sharply.
"Eh, you all are here."
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
Everyone turned around to find that Qin Xiao had quietly arrived behind them.
"Your Highness, here's what happened: we were just training when Meng Yiran came looking for members of Shrek. We realized the person she was looking for wasn't among us but was actually you," Zhao Wuji briefly recounted the events.
So that's it...
Qin Xiao nodded imperceptibly, "You all go back to your tasks."
With that, he walked past the crowd to the front gate of the academy.
"You were looking for me?" Qin Xiao frowned and asked.
Thud!
The moment Meng Yiran saw Qin Xiao, her first reaction was to kneel on one knee.
"Please help me, Your Highness!"
Meng Yiran's eyes instantly reddened.
It seems something serious has happened... Qin Xiao's gaze flickered, "Come with me."
Saying so, he turned and walked to his residence.
Without any hesitation, Meng Yiran quickly got up and followed.
....
"I'm curious, how did you find this place?" Qin Xiao asked with interest inside the room.
Meng Yiran replied, "I first went to Soto City, then to Shrek Academy, but it was already in ruins when I got there.
Guided by two villagers who once worked in the Shrek Academy canteen, I heard that Shrek Academy had come to Tiandou City to merge with Sky Dou Royal Academy.
After that, I went to Sky Dou Royal Academy, where I picked up some information and made my way here."
I see...
Qin Xiao nodded subtly, "So what brings you to me?"
That was actually what Qin Xiao was most eager to find out.
Suddenly, Meng Yiran's complexion changed drastically, turning pale as paper: "Ten Thousand Beast Academy is no more, my grandparents have perished... It was Tang Hao who destroyed everything."
"What? You're saying Tang Hao destroyed Ten Thousand Beast Academy?"
"Long Gong, Snake Granny have fallen too?"
Upon hearing Meng Yiran's recount, Qin Xiao also showed a moved expression in the room.
This was something he could never have anticipated.
In the original story, Long Gong even lent a hand to help Tang San.
With a bitter tone, Meng Yiran said, "It was my carelessness in the academy that exposed the attached soul bone. Although my grandparents tried their best to seal the news, the students in the academy still leaked it out. This is what brought disaster upon Ten Thousand Beast Academy."
"It's done, regret is pointless."
"One must learn to look ahead."
Qin Xiao wasn't one for flowery speech, for in the face of reality, all words seemed too pale.
"Your Highness, there's no need for comforting words, Yiran understands all too well," she pressed on. "I have come to you not seeking comfort, but to ask for your strength to avenge them.
"I want to kill Tang Hao and destroy the Hao Tian Clan!" Meng Yiran spoke as if choking back tears.
"Why have you come to me?" Qin Xiao wasn't so overflowing with sympathy as to readily agree.
Wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes, Meng Yiran responded, "You are the only strong person Yiran knows of. Apart from you, I do not know whom else to turn to. Moreover, you have helped Yiran before..."
"Do you understand who your enemy is, and the extent of the powerful forces behind him?"
"Of course I do!" Meng Yiran nodded vigorously, her eyes hardening with determination.
"I won't rest in peace if this vendetta remains unsettled!
"I am willing to pay any price to kill Tang Hao and destroy the Hao Tian Clan!"
As she spoke, she tugged the sash tied around her waist, revealing a magnificent view to Qin Xiao.
A couple of red spots amidst the snow, under which lay rolling hills and verdant meadows!
Her legs were long and straight...
It must be said that Meng Yiran's figure was not as explosive as Zhu Zhuqing's, but it was exceptionally well-proportioned.
Qin Xiao really couldn't say who was superior; each had their own appeal.
Even before, he, as a Titled Douluo, couldn't help but steal a second glance.
After all, a Titled Douluo might be a Titled Douluo, but at his core, he was still a man, a young man brimming with vigor.
"Your Highness, if you fancy Yiran, then take Yiran with you," said Meng Yiran as she gently bit her lip, her delicate voice tinged with vulnerability.
