Chapter 190: Wang Dong's Transformation
As Teacher Mu was lecturing, she frowned and looked towards Wang Dong, who had just spoken up. However, Wang Dong's expression frightened her as well. Wang Dong was sweating profusely, as if struggling with an inner turmoil that left her face ashen.
"Wang Dong, are you alright? Do you need to visit the school infirmary?" Teacher Mu asked with concern.
"No need, thank you, Teacher Mu. I just need to rest for a while," Wang Dong replied, trying to keep her voice steady.
"Then you better go back and rest. If you feel unwell, feel free to take a few more days off. I'll approve your leave," Teacher Mu nodded understandingly, advising Wang Dong.
"Okay, Teacher Mu, I understand." Wang Dong covered her forehead and unexpectedly, the beautiful wings of a Goddess of Light Butterfly unfurled behind her, and she flew straight out of the classroom.
"She's in such a hurry…" Teacher Mu rubbed her temples with a slight headache, then looked back at the class and clapped her hands to refocus everyone. "Let's continue with the lesson!"
Nobody paid much attention to the incident since, apart from Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong didn't have close relationships with others in the class. Her peers, who found her too arrogant due to her higher abilities—already at level forty-seven with a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring—even felt a bit of schadenfreude at her distress.
"Wang Dong, what's actually wrong with you?" Huo Yuhao looked worriedly in the direction Wang Dong had left.
At that moment, Wang Dong had already returned to her dormitory. She collapsed onto her bed in agony, her face covered in sweat, as her mind echoed with shouts and roars.
"He doesn't deserve to stand beside you!"
"Stay away from him!"
"This ant from the dust should be crushed underfoot!"
"How can someone as noble as you be friends with him!"
"He doesn't deserve it!!!"
What terrified Wang Dong was that these voices were all hers.
Yes, hers, not his.
In agony, Wang Dong didn't realize that her disguise from the Haotian School was gradually fading. Her powder-blue mid-length hair slowly grew longer, reaching her waist, her Adam's apple smoothed into a slender, delicate neck, and her body's curves became more pronounced and shapely.
Even her facial features softened into a stunningly beautiful face, only marred by the expression of pain.
"The bell, the bell…" The urgent ring of the school bell woke Wang Dong, now transformed into Wang Dong'er. Her powder-blue eyes opened wide, filled with confusion.
"What's happening to me…" Wang Dong'er looked down at her slender, fair fingers in bewilderment, her voice tinged with uncertainty.
"Wait… my voice…"
Wang Dong'er was shocked, touching her throat, feeling the smooth and tender skin but missing the familiar bulge. The Adam's apple was gone.
"And my hair…"
Her silky, powder-blue long hair naturally draped down her back, adding a touch of feminine grace to her appearance.
Why have I reverted?
Confused, Wang Dong'er played with her fragrant long hair, her brows furrowed.
"Clang—"
"Wang Dong! Are you alright?" Huo Yuhao rushed into the dormitory, concerned, then stupidly stopped at the doorway, trembling as he pointed at Wang Dong'er, who sat sideways on the bed.
Sunlight bathed her, making the stunningly beautiful Wang Dong'er look ethereal and noble, like a goddess of light.
Huo Yuhao was mesmerized.
Apart from Xue Linglong, Huo Yuhao was certain that Wang Dong'er was the most beautiful person he had ever seen, even more so than Xue Linglong because of her proximity.
No wonder… No wonder Wang Dong never bathed in the dorm, no wonder she didn't like him touching her, no wonder she always kept her distance from him.
She was a woman!
Huo Yuhao gazed dumbly at Wang Dong'er, his eyes filled with adoration.
Too beautiful!
Especially her somewhat bewildered expression and eyes made him want to protect her, to hold her close.
Feeling Huo Yuhao's gaze, Wang Dong'er's sense of disgust intensified.
"Get out!" Wang Dong'er frowned, her crisp reprimand ringing out without thought.
She had never spoken to Huo Yuhao like this before…
"Okay, okay…" Dazed, Huo Yuhao backed out of the room and even closed the door behind him.
Watching the closed door, Wang Dong'er weakly raised her hand, wanting to call Huo Yuhao back, but her deep-seated aversion stopped her from speaking.
"What's happening to me…"
Wang Dong'er covered her face, softly sobbing, her tears wetting her palms.
Now that she had reverted to her female identity, Wang Dong'er could no longer share a dormitory with Huo Yuhao.
That night, Huo Yuhao sat by the Sea God Lake, his mind a mess, filled with images of Wang Dong'er's beautiful face and shapely figure.
I actually slept with such a gorgeous woman…
A silly smile spread across Huo Yuhao's face as he fantasized about a future together with Wang Dong'er.
Her attitude of disgust didn't make Huo Yuhao realize anything was amiss; he thought it was just because Wang Dong'er had reverted to being a woman and was a bit uncomfortable.
After all, he was the only good friend she had at Shrek Academy!
Who else but me could stand by Wang Dong'er's side!
The next day, Wang Dong'er, now dressed as a woman, stood in front of a stunned Teacher Mu, requesting a change of dormitory.
After a complex explanation, Teacher Mu agreed to arrange a single dormitory for her.
Wang Dong'er revealed her Haotian Hammer spirit and the prestige of the Haotian School, convincing Teacher Mu of her story and securing her own dormitory.
Huo Yuhao tentatively knocked on the dorm door the next day. Receiving no response, he opened it to find only an empty bed.
