Chapter 123 Leaving (Please Subscribe)_1

Subsequently, Tang Wulin and the others handed over unrelated items from their storage soul tools to Yun Ming...

Yun Ming looked at them deeply, "Well then, I wish you good luck!"

He then left with the other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion...

Leaving only a line of people staring at each other at a loss for what to do...

Xie Xie couldn't help but complain, "Are they even taking away our federation coins? Isn't that a bit too strict?"

Wherever one goes, money is important; without it, one might starve halfway through the journey!

Ye Xinglan pursed her thin lips and spoke softly, "Yeah, but it also seems to indicate that the place where this army is located may not be that far from us."

Tang Wulin nodded, "That's what I thought too, but luckily, the Pavilion Master left us our Battle Armor and forging materials!"

With these things, there's no fear of running into financial issues!

After all, he was a level 6 blacksmith! Simply selling one finished piece could earn a substantial income!

Yue Zhengyu stretched lazily, saying leisurely, "So, what do we do now? Head straight for the Gold Path according to the map?"

Beside him, Xu Xiaoyan sighed helplessly, "It seems that's the only way, even though we don't know what frightening things await us when we get there."

Even now, the attitude Feng Wu Yu had displayed earlier still sent shivers down her spine!

Yuanen Yehui looked at them expressionlessly and said indifferently, "Instead of discussing this, we'd better set off quickly. We still don't know if there's a time limit to reach our destination!"

It was at this moment that Gu Yue couldn't help but speak up, "Um... everyone, I'm sorry, but I can't accompany you on the journey!"

At these words, everyone frowned...

Xie Xie displeasedly said, "Gu Yue, what do you mean by that? Are you going to leave again?"

Xu Xiaoyan reminded, "Gu Yue, this military service can greatly improve your strength. You'll regret not participating!"

Yue Zhengyu echoed, "That's right. Didn't the Pavilion Master say that deserters would be listed as fugitives and expelled from Shrek Academy? Aren't you worried?"

Yuanen Yehui said abruptly, "Unless there's something truly necessary, I suggest you join us."

Gu Yue replied with an apologetic expression, "I've already spoken to the Pavilion Master in advance, and he has given his approval."

Tang Wulin clenched his teeth and stared into her beautiful eyes, "Gu Yue, can't you reconsider? Everyone is going this time; without you, it won't be complete!"

Gu Yue pressed her lips together but did not speak...

But he knew that she had made up her mind, no amount of persuasion would change it!

He reluctantly said, "If you don't wish to go, then wait for me to come back!"

Gu Yue revealed a smile, "Alright, you take care over there, and of course, everyone else too!"

Tang Wulin took a deep breath and looked to the others, "It's getting late, let's set off, everyone!"

Although he was reluctant to leave Gu Yue, he couldn't delay everyone because of his own feelings!

After everyone nodded, they quickly left the inner court of Shrek...

That was when a familiar voice sounded behind her, "Why didn't you go with Tang Wulin and the others?"

Gu Yue was startled, "Teacher Xu, you're still here..."

She hadn't even sensed his presence before!

Xu Sheng calmly said, "Hmm, if you have any difficult issues, you can talk to me about them..."

Gu Yue instinctively wanted to deny it, but after hesitating for a few seconds, she opened up, "Teacher Xu, actually, a few months ago, the Spirit Pagoda sent people to negotiate with me."

Xu Sheng asked with surprise, "Oh? For what purpose?"

Gu Yue's expression became more solemn, "It seems like they plan to cultivate me to become the next Spirit Pagoda's master!"

If at first she thought it was a joke, the time she spent working at the Spirit Pagoda made her realize that she really could exercise the rights of a Council Member!

Xu Sheng stroked his chin, "Hmm... well, that's not a bad thing!"

Back then, Leng Yaozhu had asked him which students at Shrek Academy were worth cultivating, and his response was Gu Yue!

He didn't expect that they would actually begin to secretly cultivate her!

Gu Yue questioned with confusion, "Teacher Xu, aren't you... surprised by this?"

She didn't even dare to let the other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion know about this!

But looking at Teacher Xu's demeanor, he didn't seem very surprised...

Could it be...

At that moment, an idea surfaced in her mind, though she had no evidence.

Xu Sheng smiled slightly, "There's nothing to be surprised about. Your abilities are among the strongest I have seen. Have more confidence in yourself – if you can become the master of the Spirit Pagoda, then the things you're worried about won't be a problem!"

After uttering this meaningful statement, he turned around and disappeared from Gu Yue's sight...

A strong chill rose in Gu Yue's heart as she spoke with a complex expression, "Teacher Xu... he might already know my identity!"

...

Meanwhile, Tang Wulin and the others had already arrived at the Soul Guidance Station, and after successfully purchasing tickets, they entered the corresponding station.

Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui, Yue Zhengyu and Xu Xiaoyan, Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi sat together in a row...

Only Tang Wulin, with a gloomy face, sat alone in the front...

Witnessing this, Wu Siduo immediately stood up and sat down beside him...

She whispered soothingly, "Wulin, I know Gu Yue's departure has hit you hard, but she must have had her reasons that she couldn't avoid!"

For some reason, she found this version of Tang Wulin to be particularly heart-wrenching!

Tang Wulin mustered a weak smile, "Wu Siduo, thank you!"

Wu Siduo continued, "Wulin, to be honest, don't you find it strange? Since the day before the Sea God's Blind Date Event started, Gu Yue's behavior has been very peculiar!"

"If neither Teacher Xu nor any other Elder from the Sea God Pavilion came to teach, Gu Yue didn't spend much time in the Inner Court!"

"She must have concealed some things from us!"

Tang Wulin clenched his fists, "Wu Siduo, that's just your speculation, right? Perhaps Gu Yue was just visiting the Blacksmith Association?"

Wu Siduo's beautiful eyes swept over him, "Do you really believe that yourself?"

Tang Wulin fell silent, "..."

If Gu Yue had been going to the Blacksmith Association, Zhen Hua wouldn't always urge him to bring her along...

Wu Siduo opened her mouth to say more, but seeing his mood deteriorating, she sighed, "Alright, I'll say no more. Don't put too much pressure on yourself!"

At the same time, an announcement came over the Soul Guidance Train's loudspeaker...

"Passengers of the Soul Guidance Train, please prepare, this train is heading to..."
