Chapter 3316: Embarrassment
Regarding that statement, Gu Yuena responded candidly, "Mm, if it's necessary, I won't hesitate!"
If she indeed needed Tang Wulin's help, she wouldn't let pride get in the way of seeking it!
Only then did Tang Wulin show a hint of relief, "Mm... that's good, after all, we are husband and wife. Even though we are the Sea God Pavilion Master and Spirit Pagoda's master respectively, our feelings for each other won't change!!"
Of course, he would only say such things in private with her...
Gu Yuena didn't continue on this topic but shifted her attention, "Let's not talk about this. Wulin, how is everyone at the academy? Are they all well?"
Speaking of which, other than the time she went to the academy after Tang Wulin's failed attempt to reach God Rank, she hadn't been back since!
So, she was somewhat curious about the current situation of the Shrek Seven Monsters...
Tang Wulin paused for a moment, a smile involuntarily appearing at the corners of his mouth, "Mm, everyone's doing pretty well, training the academy students from time to time, and they are all waiting for you to return!"
Memories flooded Gu Yuena's mind as she murmured softly, "Go back, huh... Yeah, maybe one day I'll go back, but certainly not now!!"
How could she not want to return, but she was the Silver Dragon King, the leader of the Soul Beast Clan!!
She had to take up her responsibility!!
Feeling her emotions wavering, Tang Wulin spoke his heart out, "I know, everyone knows, but no matter how long it takes, they will always be waiting for you!!"
Standing outside the door, no, more accurately eavesdropping, was Bi Ji, already unable to suppress her amusement...
"Di Tian, it doesn't seem like Tang Wulin and the master are discussing any secrets, just simply... bonding?"
"To tell the truth, it's kind of making my skin crawl!"
"Shall we, then, not disturb them any further?"
Di Tian snorted and curled his lip, "Hmph, that can't be assured, I don't believe that the leaders of two powers would meet just for such trivial nonsense!!"
In the face of the crisis of the Soul Beast Clan, romantic concerns are completely unnecessary!!
On hearing this, Bi Ji suddenly leaned in close, seriously questioning, "Really?? Di Tian, do you really think love is trivial??"
Di Tian, subconsciously about to respond with "yes," caught sight of the expectant look in her eyes...
Immediately, he covered his mouth and coughed, "Cough cough... not that it's trivial, but, the most important thing right now is to revitalize the Soul Beast Clan, everything else should be put out of mind!!"
Pleased with this answer, Bi Ji let him off the hook, "That's more like it!"
Di Tian waved his hand, pointing towards the front door, "Alright, alright, let's listen to what they're really talking about inside!"
After saying this, they quieted down, ready to continue listening to the sounds from inside...
But the next second, the door emitted a "Crack!!" and slowly opened...
Two gazes shot straight out from within...
In an instant, Di Tian and Bi Ji harbored the idea of leaving...
However, that was merely wishful thinking!!
For that reason, the former could only brace himself and say, "It's no wonder the master noticed our presence!!"
The latter nodded in agreement, "Yes, such spiritual power could definitely suppress the Ghost Emperor!!"
Gu Yuena stared at them, her gaze exceptionally sharp, "Do you think I would believe that?!"
"Speak, what are you doing hiding outside the door?? What's the matter?"
Di Tian and Bi Ji bowed their heads slightly, choosing silence...
Next to them, Tang Wulin tentatively raised his right hand, "I think, it's because of me!"
Although he wanted to talk with Gu Yue, he didn't want to affect her relationship with Di Tian and other ferocious beasts because of it!!
Gu Yuena, however, glanced sideways with a cold look, "Wulin, don't interfere!"
The former abruptly withdrew their hand and silently shut their mouth…
It seemed that Gu Yue wasn't angry over such a trivial matter!
Most likely, it was because of something else!!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bi Ji also raised her head and spoke out to explain, "Master… Lord, we were just a bit curious about what you and Tang Wulin might be discussing, nothing else!"
Gu Yuena continued to press, "Is that really all??"
"Di Tian?"
Di Tian's body trembled, and he sighed, "Yes… Lord, it is as Bi Ji has said, we just wanted to know what you were discussing, so we eavesdropped here!!"
Gu Yuena took a deep breath, "And your reason for doing so?"
Di Tian was candid, "Although Tang Wulin is your companion, he is still human, so we do not trust him!"
The most surprised was Tang Wulin, who even pointed at himself, "Eh??"
Do these ferocious beasts think I would use my status to pry into Spirit Pagoda intelligence??
In that case, eavesdropping secretly would also be understandable!!
On hearing this, Gu Yuena explained, word by word, "I am aware of Wulin's character; he isn't the type to leak intelligence, and certainly wouldn't eavesdrop on others!!"
"Furthermore… We were not discussing anything related to the Spirit Pagoda, so you have no reason to suspect him!"
"Therefore… You must apologize to Wulin right now!"
"What??"
With this statement, not only were Di Tian and the others shocked, but Tang Wulin was also startled and sat up straight…
Having the once king of the Aquipeia Forest, Di Tian, apologize to him was something he had never expected!
Not to mention, he had conflicts with this Di Tian, and even if they had somewhat lessened, they certainly hadn't disappeared!
Di Tian couldn't hide his anger, "Lord, are you shaming me and Bi Ji by making us apologize to a human, especially this guy?!"
Bi Ji also spoke gravely, "Lord, please forgive us, but we cannot accept your command!!"
They may obey Gu Yuena, but they also had their own dignity!
Tang Wulin was also quick to refuse, "That's right, Gu Yue, it's just listening for a while, there's no need for this!"
"And besides, if anyone should apologize, it should be me!!"
Gu Yuena frowned, "Wulin, I've already said it, do not interfere in this matter!!"
Tang Wulin immediately deflated, holding back all the words he had in mind…
Then, Gu Yuena turned back to look at Di Tian and Bi Ji, using an unprecedented tone, "Di Tian, Bi Ji, do you really intend to defy my command??"
Di Tian clenched his fists and responded again, "Lord, it's not that we want to defy your command, it's just that apologizing to a human is truly hard to accept!!"
"Aside from this, we can unconditionally follow all your other commands!!"
Bi Ji didn't change her attitude either, "Lord, please don't make things difficult for us!!"
