Chapter 897: The Seven Monsters Reunited (2/2)

She had been reduced to nothing more than a shadow of her former self in just one night.

”Your Highness...” Tang Wulin appraised her in a stunned manner.

Yali's footsteps were a little unsteady as she slowly made his way over to Tang Wulin before shaking her head at him. Her eyes were completely bloodshot and devoid of any signs of life and exuberance. She slowly raised a hand, and gentle white light radiated from her palm as she pressed it softly against Gu Yue's forehead.

The worst thing that could happen to a person was for their heart to die, and her heart had undoubtedly crossed over to the other side with Yun Ming.

Gu Yue was at a loss for what to do in the face of the white light being released by Yali's palm, but it was quite clear that she didn't seem to feel anything, either.

Moments later, Yali slowly withdrew her hand, and her brows furrowed slightly as she said, ”Her condition is rather special. There's nothing wrong with her physically, so it's most likely the case that her mind has been dealt a heavy blow, resulting in a change in the nerves in her brain, thereby sealing off her memories, and that's why she's suffering from amnesia.”

Tang Wulin asked in a nervous manner, ”Can her condition be remedied?”

Yali replied, ”It won't be easy. The most complex organ in the human body is the brain as the brain is an extremely mysterious thing. According to research conducted by the federation, there has always been a limit to how much the human brain can be explored, and there's no way to glean all of its secrets. We can only divine the brain up into simple sections based on some observations, but no deeper conclusions have been drawn. This is one of the important directions that soul technology research is progressing toward. This condition can't be treated lightly, and if incorrect treatment methods are applied, further irreversible damage could result.”

Tang Wulin couldn't help but draw a sharp breath upon hearing this. Yali was the number one healing system Soul Master on the entire continent; even she was stating that Gu Yue's condition was quite troublesome to deal with, so it had to be very serious.

Yali could see the concern on Tang Wulin's face, and she consoled, ”Don't be too worried; there are ways to remedy her condition. Generally speaking, as long as you can find the correct spirit items that can help bolster her bodily functions and return her cranial nerves back to normal, her memories will naturally return to her. It's just that I can only think of one spirit item that can cure her; it's called the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and it's extremely rare. Also, we'll need one that's at least 10,000 years old to remedy her condition. If Shrek Academy were still around, we'd be able to draw upon the academy's power and resources to search for one, but now...”

Her voice trailed off as her eyes dimmed even further.

Everyone also fell silent, and they felt as if their hearts had been filled with lead. Shrek Academy was gone, leaving them feeling like plants with no roots.

Tang Wulin took a deep breath, and said, ”Your Highness, we'll definitely rebuild Shrek Academy and return it to its former glory, I promise!”

Yali nodded with a bitter expression on her face. ”The future is in your hands. I'll do everything I can to support all of you.”

After that, she turned and returned to her room.

It was already taking immense willpower just for her to continue to survive, and her only motivation was to see the revival of Shrek Academy in Yun MIn's stead.

As the master of the Sea God's Pavilion, it had naturally been extremely excruciating for Yun Ming to witness the destruction of Shrek Academy. If she weren't being supported by the thought of completing Yun Ming's final wish in his stead, Yali would've followed him to the other side already.

A Myriad Year Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum...

Tang Wulin held onto Gu Yue's hand with a determined look on his face. He was going to find that spirit item and cure Gu Yue. He was the backbone of this team, so he couldn't allow himself to wallow in grief and despair. They were most likely the only remaining force in Shrek Academy, and as the captain, he had to shoulder this massive burden and the hope of the entire Shrek Academy.

”Reinvigorate yourselves, everyone; the sky still hasn't fallen yet. Shrek still has us, and the fact that the academy chose us as Shrek’s Seven Monsters means that we're exceptional enough to carry the entirety of Shrek Academy on our shoulders in the future. This is our duty and also our responsibility. The academy nurtured us, and we're all proud to be students of the academy. In my heart, Shrek Academy will always be the number one academy, and we have to keep facing forward no matter what situation we're in. Wherever we fell is wherever we'll stand up again.”

Ye Xinglan stood firmly beside him, and said, ”Tell us what to do next, Wulin.”

Tang Wulin replied in a serious voice, ”The current situation is very complicated. The academy has been destroyed, the federal parliament has been disbanded, and the entire continent is in a state of chaos. In a situation like this, we can't rely on or trust anyone else. I still clearly recall something my father told me when I was just a small child; he said that the only person one can completely rely on is themselves, and I think that's really true. The only people we can rely on now are ourselves.”
