I Slept With Xiao Wu...!

That day, a great upheaval shook the Heaven Dou Empire as news spread, causing widespread panic and heated discussions.

The continent's top academy, known as the Monster Academy, had suffered a catastrophic disaster within half a day. The entire Shrek Academy was destroyed, with its iconic buildings razed to the ground—an utterly tragic scene.

The academies of Heaven Dou, Blazing Fire, Divine Wind, and others were all shocked and found it hard to believe. Shrek Academy was filled with powerful figures, boasting three Soul Douluo, several Soul Saints and Soul Emperors as teachers, and enjoyed the Empire's protection. How could it be wiped out in just half a day?

This was Shrek Academy, home to geniuses like Tang San and Dai Mubai, favored by Emperor Xue Ye and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Who would dare strike Shrek? Did they intend to oppose the entire Heaven Dou Empire?

In Heaven Dou City, countless nobles and soul masters discussed the shocking event, finding it hard to believe. Such a powerful academy was destroyed without warning—what kind of terrifying force could achieve this?

Many were filled with dread. Who was the person capable of destroying Shrek Academy in less than half a day? What level of soul power had they reached?

Speculation ran wild. Many wondered if the legendary figure from the Spirit Hall had emerged and infiltrated the Heaven Dou Empire unnoticed.

If true, nowhere on the continent would be safe. Who could guarantee that their own home wouldn't be the next target?

Soon, the soul masters of Heaven Dou City got their answer. The one who destroyed Shrek Academy wasn't an unrivaled Douluo, but a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old.

His name was Chen Xuan, who had once participated in the Continental Soul Master Tournament but disappeared after failing to reach the finals.

"Who is Chen Xuan?" many asked, puzzled by the unfamiliar name.

A young man wielding such destructive power—why had no one heard of him before?

This name was foreign to the soul master community and major academies alike, not to mention the common folk.

"Chen Xuan from the Elite Soul Master Tournament? Wasn't he supposed to be dead?"

Some from the academies of Heaven Dou, Blazing Fire, Divine Wind, Thunderclap, and Tianshui recalled the tournament from seven or eight years ago, remembering a prodigious boy who stood out, matching the talents of Tang San and Dai Mubai from the Shrek Seven Devils.

They were deeply puzzled. Back then, Flender and Liu Erlong had publicly declared that the traitor Chen Xuan had been executed. Could he have returned from the dead?

Only a handful of participants from that tournament remembered him. To the masses and even the residents of Heaven Dou City, Chen Xuan was an unknown figure, never having heard of such a young genius.

Many found it absurd, suspecting that the destruction of Shrek Academy was the work of someone else and that Chen Xuan's involvement was mere fabrication.

However, those doubts faded when Bone Douluo Gu Rong personally confirmed the truth.

Gu Rong admitted that he had narrowly lost to Chen Xuan, acknowledging the young man's brilliance and predicting that his future achievements would surpass his own.

Initially, some still doubted the claim, thinking it exaggerated, but members of the royal family who had witnessed the battle from afar confirmed that Gu Rong had indeed been overpowered and ultimately defeated.

The news reached the aged Emperor Xue Ye, who, upon learning of the battle, immediately raised Chen Xuan's wanted status to the highest level, labeling him the most dangerous individual.

The news spread like a tidal wave, and Chen Xuan's name echoed throughout Heaven Dou City. Branded as a devil for his ruthless destruction of the academy that had nurtured him, many believed he was destined to become a tyrant.

Some voiced their condemnation, calling him a criminal and accusing him of betraying his school and teachers. But fearing that Chen Xuan might come after them, most kept their opinions private.

Three days passed as these events fermented...

On the day he defeated Bone Douluo, Chen Xuan returned to the palace with Jiangzhu, temporarily residing in Xue Qinghe's Eastern Palace.

Though he heard the hostile opinions from the outside world, he felt helpless, knowing someone was fueling the rumors. Explaining himself would be pointless, so he chose to ignore it.

After all, having stayed in the palace for a few days, it was time to leave for the Star Luo Empire.

Chen Xuan had made up his mind to depart the day after tomorrow, taking his younger sister, Chen Yiyi, with him.

During his three days in the palace, he had reunited with his sister after many years, sharing his experiences and explaining that his long absence wasn't due to forgetting her but because of unspeakable circumstances.

Yiyi understood his plight and didn't blame him, excitedly expressing her desire to meet Xiao Wu, curious about her brother's taste in women.

After seven or eight years, the young girl had grown into a beautiful young woman with rosy cheeks, almost as stunning as Xiao Wu herself, making Chen Xuan marvel at the strength of the Chen family's bloodline.

"Brother, everyone outside is calling you a devil who invades others' territories at the slightest provocation. Why don't you care at all?" Yiyi pouted, clearly frustrated.

Chen Xuan lounged on a deck chair, basking in the warm sunlight, gently rocking himself in comfort.

"Aren't you going to explain yourself, brother?" Yiyi wrinkled her nose, shaking his arm in annoyance.

Seeing her brother so relaxed while the world called him a devil infuriated her.

"What's there to explain? I'm wanted by the royal family. The moment I step out of the Eastern Palace, they'll try to capture me," Chen Xuan replied lazily, eyes closed as he enjoyed the sun.

He knew someone was deliberately stirring the rumors, though he couldn't pinpoint who. Being wanted by the Spirit Hall made sense, but why the Heaven Dou Empire? He couldn't recall doing anything out of line within its borders.

Qian Renxue was already investigating the matter, and Chen Xuan believed they would have answers soon.

"Sometimes, the more you explain, the worse it gets. The residents of Heaven Dou City will believe their own people over an outsider like me. Better to just enjoy my days in peace and ignore the noise," Chen Xuan said, continuing to rock his chair.

Yiyi puffed her cheeks, crossing her arms. Even though she understood his reasoning, she still felt indignant on his behalf.

"Alright, you two, have some fruit," Jiangzhu appeared in a light blue dress, carrying a plate of sliced fruit towards them.

Yiyi gave her brother a mischievous look and whispered, "Brother, be honest. What's going on between you and this sister? Are you trying to have two girlfriends?"

Caught off guard, Chen Xuan's face flushed, and he quickly pushed her head away. "You're just a kid. Don't ask so many questions."

Yiyi's mouth dropped open in shock. She had only been teasing, but his reaction confirmed her suspicions.

Furious, she playfully punched him on the chest, saying, "I can't believe you're such a scumbag, brother!"

However, she quickly composed herself as Jiangzhu approached, not wanting to spoil things between them.

Chen Xuan sighed. If possible, he really did wish he could give all three of his beloved women a home.
