"To think such a thing would happen in Shrek City! Such a beautiful girl, damn it!" Xie Xie went completely mad, standing up and running out.
Gu You wanted to grab him but missed. Xie Xie ran faster than a dog. He, of all people, knew the golden-haired youth's character—whether good or bad, it was just a scene for fun.
There was nothing he could do but hand over his card to Gu Yue, asking her to pay for the drinks first while he went out to check.
He had just stepped onto the street when a powerful fluctuation of soul power spread from ahead.
A golden light suddenly flashed, and the golden light shooting into the sky illuminated the entire street brilliantly...
Gu Yue looked at the red card in her hand, deep in thought. Xu Xiaoyan eagerly took it from her. This was the first time she had seen such a card. The highest-level card in her family was also golden.
"Gu Yue sis, this card must have a lot of money in it, right?" Xu Xiaoyan asked in a low voice. Although her family wasn't short of money, she was. They only gave her 60,000 yuan as living expenses each month, which was too little.
Gu Yue nodded, "That's too stingy. If you want to use the money, you can ask him."
"Alright, I'll ask him when he comes back." Xu Xiaoyan lowered her head with a hint of disappointment. How could she ask him? But Gu You's temper was indeed quite good, maybe she'd ask next time.
Gu Yue finished settling the bill for the drinks and put the card away.
"Ah!"
Xie Xie came flying over, and Gu You caught him. At that moment, Xie Xie's face was swollen, making him look unrecognizable.
Gu You couldn't help but smile wryly. He looked up in the direction of the light.
That golden light was emanating from the golden-haired youth who had been pestering them earlier. The golden light was spreading, and he exuded a divine aura.
Three soul rings shone beneath his feet. At the same time, a pair of pure white wings unfolded from his back.
Not far in front of him, the red-haired girl with short hair stopped. She turned around, her face as cold as ice, looking at him. Her arms spread out at her sides, and immediately, the space behind her darkened completely, slightly distorting. A pair of black wings extended from her back, and her previously delicate appearance gained an aura of mysterious allure.
"I knew I wasn't wrong. It looks like I was right. Interesting, really interesting." The youth smiled, his white wings flapping as golden light shone brightly.
The red-haired girl tightly pursed her lips. Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in her eyes, and her body disappeared into the surrounding darkness.
"Trying to run?" The golden-haired youth shouted coldly. The first soul ring beneath his feet glowed brightly, and the golden light shot up into the sky, growing even brighter.
The divine light illuminated everything around, especially the direction the girl had disappeared into. At the same time, he struck out with his right hand, and his second soul ring also glowed. A beam of holy light shot forward, instantly revealing the girl's figure, now covered by a purple-black glow.
"Three rings against two rings, the advantage is mine. You can't escape," the youth said confidently.
Suddenly, a trace of derision appeared on the girl's face. She folded her wings back and lowered them to the ground, even retracting her soul rings.
"Fool, this is Shrek."
At some point, another person appeared in the sky, a tall man whose face was unclear.
"The Director of the Outer Academy's Enforcement Team, Yang Qian, is here! Who dares to break the rules?"
"Reporting to the Enforcer, I am Yue Zhengyu from the Angel Clan, a second-year student in Class One of the Outer Academy. We discovered a Fallen Angel in Shrek City. As everyone knows, Fallen Angels are almost certainly evil soul masters, so I had to take action and capture her to bring her back to the family for trial."
Hearing this, the red-haired girl remained calm. She raised a card toward the sky, "Respected Enforcer, I am a work-study student at Shrek Academy, and my identity has been verified by the academy. I am not an evil soul master."
Gu You closed his eyes, purple light flashing around him. The person in the sky became clearer in his mind.
Since his spiritual power had entered the Spiritual Domain, his Purple Extreme Magic Eyes had reached their highest level, the Vast Domain!
The so-called "Vast" refers to this realm of the Purple Extreme Magic Eyes. Now, Gu You no longer needed to use his physical eyes to see. Instead, he saw with his inner eye. No illusion could deceive his perception.
His eyes were like the heart itself, allowing him to observe and understand all things. With his current ability, he could see through a person's entire appearance, even their bones and blood vessels. With this power, seeing through hidden soul power techniques was a simple task.
"Who?"
Yang Qian naturally sensed that someone was observing him.
"It's me," Gu You answered, not hiding himself.
Yang Qian squinted his eyes. When he saw the familiar face of Gu You, he broke out in a cold sweat. How could it be this little troublemaker? He couldn't forget the scene when the Spirit Douluo intervened to resolve the situation for this kid.
"What's the matter?" Yang Qian asked cautiously. He never thought that after so many years, he'd meet Gu You again.
"No, I just wanted to see who it was. I didn't expect it to be an old acquaintance," Gu You shook his head.
Yang Qian looked at the card in the girl's hand, nodded, and said, "Her identity can be verified. She's a work-study student at the academy and is not an evil soul master. Since you were acting to capture an evil soul master, I'll let this slide. If this happens again, both offenses will be counted. It's all over now." He tossed the identity card back to the red-haired girl, and with a flash of light, he disappeared without a trace.
The girl caught the card, looked at Yue Zhengyu, raised her thumb, then slowly turned it downward, pointing to the ground.
"You!" Yue Zhengyu's eyes flashed with anger.
"Hmph!" The girl snorted coldly, turned, and quickly vanished into the night.
Yue Zhengyu wanted to chase her, but the butler stopped him. "Shrek Academy's dignity cannot be trampled on, young master. Since Shrek has confirmed she's not an evil soul master, then she's not. Don't cause more trouble."
Yue Zhengyu snorted coldly. "A Fallen Angel is not an evil soul master? Who would believe that? I think this Shrek..."
"Not all evil soul masters are bad," Gu You appeared beside him.
"Again, you! You've caused me so much trouble," Le Zhengyu stood up, unhappy.
"Haha, nice to meet you. I believe you won't mind too much," Gu You extended his left hand.
Yue Zhengyu thought for a moment and then shook Gu You's hand with his right.
"I've never thought of myself as right, but I still want to remind you: don't take your light too far, evil soul masters also have..."
