The old turtle's prayer was very simple.

The tribe belonging to the goddess of nature arranged a special ceremony, which brought together a large amount of mutated flesh and blood as well as "spirits".

ceremony…

Meng Yi jumped up, his face, which had been beaming with pride, now clouded with gloom.

A thought instinctively arose in his mind:

The goddess of nature has indeed mastered the method to enter the real world, and has already put it into action.

The two small light bulbs, which had been drowsy all morning, suddenly lit up and became unusually alert.

Xiao Wu sensed Meng Yi's seriousness.

"What's wrong with you? You startled me."

Cen Qiyun looked at Meng Yi, who seemed somewhat out of sorts, and asked in confusion.

"I have something to take care of."

Meng Yi casually tossed out a sentence, then transformed into a streak of light, piercing through the window and swiftly disappearing into the distance, leaving Shang Shuyan and Cen Qiyun staring at each other in bewilderment.

After a few breaths, Shang Shuyan murmured:

"Perhaps... our lord has given Meng Yi some new task..."

She peeked out from behind stacks of books and waved to Cen Qiyun:

"Xiao Cen, come help me quickly."

Cen Qiyun slowly withdrew her gaze from the window.

She pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably sad.

Meng Yi should be very strong now, so there's no point in me worrying here.

Unlike at the beginning... that guy knew nothing about the Divine Graces, and I was the one who led him around Jing'an City.

I used to be a "big sister" too!

Cen Qiyun silently praised herself in her heart, and her mood suddenly improved.

Forget about that guy, I'll go do my own thing.

She walked slowly past the books filling the room and approached Shang Shuyan.

The title on the computer screen came into view.

Lesson 1: What is a human being?

She blinked and asked, "Sister Shang? Is this a university course?"

"Um."

"Shouldn't the first lesson be about our Lord?"

Ning Xingxiu said that Meng Yi opposed the education of...religious matters in schools.

Shang Shuyan shrugged. "This is the result of their discussion. All schools are prohibited from teaching this content."

The focus of universities is teaching people how to be good people; the focus is on…moral education.

Cen Qiyun nodded silently.

Woohoo—

A car horn sounded outside the window.

...

The settlement of the goddess of nature's retinue.

Located underground, this is a network of interconnected underground caves, perpetually dark and damp.

To be honest, Old Turtle is not quite used to lurking here.

However, there is also good news: he no longer only has the unreliable teammate Suo Mingcheng, but has gained new reinforcements.

Chen Guanshan and Wu Xuan arrived here five days ago.

This is because Chen Guanshan has extensive experience in disguising and deceiving the families, and Wu Xuan has also had many dealings with the families in the past.

Moreover, Wu Xuan, having recovered to the first level, can act as a backup in case of certain unexpected events.

Now, Old Wangba and Wu Xuan are lurking in the shadows, carefully observing the situation outside.

He has been promoted and is now a second-tier Shadow Warrior.

Chen Guanshan also advanced to the second tier. At this moment, he was using the special ability of a mind mage to disguise himself as an earthworm clan member and blend into the clan.

As for Suo Mingcheng.

Um... he stayed alone dozens of kilometers away to provide "support".

There was nothing Wu Xuan could do. She had originally intended to use him as a help, and even at the beginning, she suspected that the old bastard had arranged it this way just to steal credit.

After chatting for only a few minutes, I realized that Old Wangba was reliable.
