Chapter 3380: Direct Invasion

Yuanen Yehui nodded slightly, "Wulin, don't be nervous, I was just saying it casually. Since you are unwilling, let's forget it!"

She hadn't actually planned to really go, considering that if she were discovered, it would embarrass Gu Yuena!

Since she had dispatched so many Soul Masters to seal off the soul beast forest, it was clear she didn't want others to know, including herself and her group!

Tang Wulin gave an awkward smile, "That… that's how it is."

However, Yuan En Zhentian suddenly spoke up, "Wulin, actually, I personally think we should investigate what's happening in the soul beast forest!"

Yuanen Yehui was somewhat shocked, "Grandpa!"

She hadn't expected him to agree with this approach!

However, she herself had only mentioned it casually!

Tang Wulin was stunned and couldn't help but press further, "Elder Yuanen, what… what do you mean by this?"

Yuan En Zhentian expounded with deep significance, "Wulin, as the Pavilion Master of the Sea God's Pavilion, since you have secured this position, you should regard everything with an impartial view!"

"You shouldn't abandon surveillance of the soul beast forest just because of Gu Yuena!"

"If the Spirit Pagoda is preparing something in secret, wouldn't we be kept in the dark? Knowing that her priority is the revival of the Soul Beast Clan, she might do anything!"

Lan Muzi stroked his chin in contemplation, "Hmm… Wulin, I also think what Elder Yuanen has said makes sense. Even if we at Shrek Academy don't interfere too much, we at least need to know what the Spirit Pagoda is hiding!"

Tang Yinmeng also spoke with a complex expression, "Wulin… this time, I also think we can't ignore it. We should find out what has happened!"

Cai Yue'er then covered her mouth and coughed lightly, "Cough, cough… Wulin, from the perspective of an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, I think so too. Of course, the final decision is still in your hands!"

Seeing that even the most senior Elders of the Sea God Pavilion had opinions about his approach...

Tang Wulin felt somewhat helpless, "Do all the Elders think this way?"

Although he had absolute trust in Gu Yuena, people like Cai Yue'er and others were different—they did not completely trust her!

Therefore, it was normal for them to have opinions about this approach!

Xu Xiaoyan, seeing the situation, interrupted the group's conversation...

"Wulin, don't overthink it. I think Elder Cai and the others are not suspecting Gu Yue, they are just genuinely curious about the situation inside the soul beast forest!"

She was worried that Tang Wulin might become resentful towards Cai Yue'er and the others!

Yet Tang Wulin saw through her intentions and shook his head, "It's okay, I know Elder Cai and they must also have their own thoughts!"

"In that case… let's do as Elder Yuanen suggested!"

Xie Xie quickly stood up to express his stance, "Wulin, let me go and investigate then. As long as Gu Yue isn't personally there to guard, it's unlikely that anyone else could discover me!"

In terms of investigation, there probably was no one more suitable than himself!

He had once infiltrated the Douling Empire and traveled a great distance without being discovered by any evil Soul Master!

Tang Wulin frowned, "But Xie Xie, you have just returned from the Douling Empire, maybe we should not…"

Considering that the latter had just traveled through mountains and rivers from the Douling Empire, sending him to the soul beast forest again seemed a bit too much!

Xie Xie was unconcerned, "No worries, didn't you know? This kind of thing is just a trivial matter for me!"

Having anticipated that he would take the initiative, Yuanen Yehui also sighed and suggested, "Wulin, just let Xie Xie go. Having him investigate is the safest option!"

"Even if he encounters Gu Yue, he likely won't harm her!"

Tang Wulin looked at the others...

They all nodded, clearly trusting in Xie Xie's investigative capabilities...

By this point, he didn't know how to refuse and had no choice but to order, "Xie Xie, then I'll leave this matter to you, you must be careful!"

"With Gu Yue's personality, even if she doesn't guard the soul beast forest herself, she would probably keep a ferocious beast there!"

Xie Xie immediately made a 'no problem' hand gesture, "Don't worry, I promise to investigate thoroughly without being detected, and I won't let Shrek Academy be embarrassed!"

The next second, only a "boom" was heard as his body suddenly exploded, turning into wisps of Soul Power...

Seeing this, Tang Wulin couldn't help but cover his forehead, "This guy... actually sent a clone to attend the Sea God's Pavilion meeting, how bold of him!"

If it weren't for the fact that he was the Pavilion Master himself, able to turn a blind eye, he would probably have been severely reprimanded by Elder Cai!

Yue Zhengyu curled his lips, muttering, "Xie Xie, this guy, why is he so diligent now, he used to push everything onto others!"

In this period of time, he had been taking on any task handed down by the Sea God's Pavilion without complaint!

Cai Yue'er then showed a relieved expression, "Maybe it's because he has grown up, Xie Xie's personality is still impulsive, but not as reckless as before!"

"This just proves that he has indeed become a qualified Elder of the Sea God Pavilion!"

"All right, Wulin, let's continue to the next topic!"

...

Elsewhere, feeling his clone dissipate, Xie Xie also knew everything that had happened at the Sea God's Pavilion...

"Hmm, it seems I guessed right, Elder Cai and the others would definitely be suspicious of the soul beast forest and oppose Wulin's proposal!"

"But that's fine, I'm almost there!"

He could already faintly sense the numerous Soul Power Auras ahead...

Sure enough, within a few minutes, he saw a dense crowd of Spirit Pagoda Members...

Every one of them was fully armed, carrying highly lethal soul weapons...

Clearly, they wouldn't allow anyone to enter!

This made Xie Xie genuinely feel, "The defense of the soul beast forest is indeed stringent, I wonder what exactly Gu Yue is planning to do!"

"However, since I've already agreed to scout out this place, I can't return empty-handed!"

Although these Spirit Pagoda Members were standing very closely together, as long as their eyes couldn't keep up, they would not be able to detect him!

Thinking this, Xie Xie also masked his Soul Power Aura...

Then, bursting out at his fastest speed, he simply passed right in front of them...

But for them, the whole process was even less than a second!

Of course, even though they couldn't see clearly, they could still feel something...

"Just now... was there something that passed by?"

"Probably not, you must have seen it wrong, with so many eyes here, if anyone tries to enter, they would be exposed immediately!"

"Making a mountain out of a molehill, any normal person would be scared off by our position here, and wouldn't dare to break in!"

"Exactly, not to mention that there are so many of us guarding this place, besides, that person is inside watching, there won't be any problems!"

They were well aware that there were powerful members of the Spirit Pagoda guarding inside the soul beast forest, so they were not worried about anyone breaking in!
