"Hopefully the captain took care of that dragon." Muttered Xie Xie as he glances all around, seeing the lava moving through the Island.
At the moment, he and Yuanen Yehui were trying to stop the lava from destroying the whole island.
With them making pits for the lava to go into or destroying it so it doesn't continue spreading. His time abilities were perfect as he was able to slow down the lava spreading, before either sending it to the void.
Or having Yuenan flames burning it away, as the flames of the demon world were even hotter than lava. With it being able to also absorb it, although they knew it would be far more efficient if Mu Xi was here or Xu Xiaoyan.
"Knowing him, he is probably having a blast." Said Yuanen Yehui as she retracted her purplish-gold flames.
After they devoured the pool of lava in front of her before she swung her arms, creating a deep trench for the ones coming down.
"That is true... How are you feeling? After killing him?"Questioned Xie Xie causing Yuanen Yehui to pause for a second.
"... I am fine, I supposed. I thought before when we destroyed the seed and pushed him back during our time in Mahal, that it was enough. But... Seeing him here and being the one execute him, it felt like I got revenge for my mom."Said Yuanen Yehui with a sigh.
But then her eye slightly widened when she felt two arms around her waist causing her to look back and see Xie Xie smile.
"If you want to smile, then smile. If you want to scream at the fact, you kill him then scream. You don't need to keep it in; you did something amazing."Said Xie Xie with a chuckle causing Yuanen Yehui's eyes to soften and for her to lean back even more.
"It was we who killed him... Thank you, Xie Xie."
"Don't worry about it; I will always be there for you." Said Xie Xie causing Yuanen Yuhui to shake her head with a light laugh.
"Alright, let go of me, so we can hurry up and finish. It's been a while since we saw the others."

"So are they done with fighting the Monarchs?" Questioned Tang Wulin.
"No, Dongfeng and Guan Yue weren't able to finish off the two Monarchs, as they escaped while the dragons awakened. The other Monarchs were defeated and killed themself to awaken the god level creatures."Said Gu Yuena, causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.
"So there heading back?"
"Yea, they're going to go back to Shrek. To start to make a plan on how to go about ending the remnants of the Holy Spirit Cult and the Monarchs. As well as get ready to send a representative towards the Dou Spirit Empire. And unfortunately, I need to be there as well."
"Well you are the Spirit Pagoda Master now, how does it feel?"
"It sucks... But needed for the plan."Said Gu Yuena with a sigh.
Tang Wulin nodded his head; they do need the Spirit Pagoda to help finish up with the resurrection of the Soul Beasts.
It was the only organization that was advanced enough and well knowledgeable in the Soul beast field.
Plus it was one of the only organizations that had the funds to complete the project.
"How is the situation on Tenrou? I got a report it was invaded and damaged..."
"Don't worry about it, the humans and soul beast are fine, except for a few injuries. Only the buildings were really demolished."
"Why do you have a smile?" Questioned Gu Yuena as she saw a faint smile on Wulin's face.
"Those two stubborn races seem to have found a common ground and were able to work together to repel the attack." Said Tang Wulin, causing Gu Yuena's eyes to widen.
"You were able to do it? They're working together?"
"Not really but it's a start... Well, you will see when we get there, let's go."Said Tang Wulin.
Gu Yuena nodded her head as she held onto his shoulder before their body began lighting up in a silvery glow.
Then in the next instant, they vanished in a flash of silvery light.

The figures of Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena appeared in front of Tenrou City, which was still damaged.
Some of the builds were rubble, others were missing pieces of it and some of them had burnt marks all over.
"All of this was caused by the Dou Spirit Empire and Holy Spirit Cult..."Muttered Gu Yuena but Tang Wulin didn't say anything.
As he began moving into the city, wanting to observe the state of the people and for some other things.
Gu Yuena furrowed her brows but she followed next to him, glancing all around just to see the full extent of the damage.
As well as the relationships between the humans and the soul beast.
Yet as she was looking, to her shock she saw everyone, whether it be a soul beast or humans turning their heads and staring eagerly at them.
As if the fact their return was able to stir up an unusual commotion, causing everyone to stare.
With her spiritual sense, she could sense the fluctuation and see the intent of people around.
Awe, respect, and worship were what she experienced from the people around her.
Humans and Soul-Beast began moving down to the ground, whether it was the young, old, the strong or the weak.
All of them moved to the floor, kneeling and bowing respectfully towards Tang Wulin with full devotion and passionate sincerity.
As if Tang Wulin himself was no different than an Emperor to them.
Yet he might as well be, for he did what for them.
They all heard it was he who somehow reversed the deafening explosion of the God-Killer from happening, miraculously saving them.
They all knew it was he who summoned a Dragon army whose presence shooked the sky and earth. Before marching triumphantly across the boundless sea.
And they all knew, the violent rage he unleashed upon the people who wronged them, with it being said he painted the sea red with their blood.
'He has once again defied the world standards... With just himself and a band of a thousand dragons, he laid waste to a whole empire and marched on their footsteps...'
'All for us.'
As the thoughts of the people as Tang Wulin continued walking, all of their bodies were trembling as they felt an odd sense of emotion.
This was even more true for the soul beasts as they prostrated themselves before a human.
But it was this human who marched through the world for them, with the Dragon Clan they looked up to behind him.
When was the last time they genuinely felt this type of safety? When was the last time they felt the sincere belief of relying on another?
Is this how the Dragon Clan felt with the Dragon God? That no matter what happened, they will be fine with him there?
Who dares to take action against them? Who dares tries to wrong them? Who dares tries to start a crusade on them?
They must get past the human known as Tang Wulin first!
Pride!
Hope!
Reverence!
The soul beast couldn't stop it, this genuine feeling of pride and hope from ringing through their whole body.
"You guys have done well." Said Tang Wulin as he continued walking, moving past Renxue who was with the White Dragon.
She was trembling, becoming keenly excited as she heard the words of Tang Wulin as he passed by her.
"You have guys defending your home well, no can ever deny that, be proud of that." Said Tang Wulin as he moved past Yue Long and Xie Xiao.
Both of their figures were trembling, tears were leaking from their eyes as an extraordinary sense of pride rang through their hearts.
After saying that, a pale blue light began to shimmer from Tang Wulin as he continued walking.
To the genuine surprise and wonders of everyone, it wasn't just emitting from him but all of the destroyed and ransacked building.
And then they all fell silent at what happened next.
The buildings, roads, rubbles, and gravel began to tremble before they started to move, coming together and scattering.
The city began to be distorted. Everyone could only feel that time around them was turning slow all of a sudden.
Everyone watched in amazement everything began to move back together, buildings were piecing themselves back together.
Roads were being placed back to where they were, the burnt marks were gradually fading away, and rubbles were forming back into structures.
In a matter of seconds, the whole city of Tenrou was back to how it was before the attack of the Holy Spirit Cult.
'Time Magic: Restore.'
Everyone looked around for a bit before they stopped as they heard the sound of someone walking and glance to see Tang Wulin moving.
At that moment they realize, it was all of his doing.
Some of the soul masters and soul beasts who had a high enough cultivation could tell he reversed time.
But all of them were shocked, as that meant he reversed time back in hours, not minutes!
While the others who didn't understand what had happened, they could at the very least tell it was something mystifying.
But either way, one thing was for certain, he restored their beloved home.
And that was all they could ever ask for, be it soul beasts or humans.
It was then it started to happen, small bits of golden light shaped in a glowing ball began to move from the people's bodies.
Countless golden lights started to naturally gather, moving away from the figures of the soul beasts and humans.
Like spheres of golden fire, they moved like fireflies towards Tang Wulin, they were like moths that were attracted to the sun as they weave around his figure.
The glittering lights were beautiful and sacred as if they were the purest of energy in the world, untainted by the world.
It was then Tang Wulin began to hear them, the gentle voices of the ethereal lights, they were all strange.
They came in various tones, some being children's, men, tiger, women, lions. All of the lights held a unique individual aspect to them that even left Tang Wulin in slight awe, recognizing this phenomenon before.
'Our Principal...'
'Our Emperor...'
'Our... God...'
'Just like in the Dragon Clan Graveyard... Oh? Is this... Faith?'
"Yes... It's their faith in you... Unbelievable." Yggdrasil's voice rang out in pleasant surprise.
The lights came and kept on coming, washing, and surrounding Tang Wulin as if the gods themselves were giving him their blessing.
Even Gu Yuena was shocked, as she knew what this meant to Tang Wulin and the people of Tenrou City.
At this moment, they all undoubtedly saw Tang Wulin as more than just their leader and principal of the city.
Before the people of Tenrou City in their hearts saw Tang Wulin as the Emperor of Ishgar, but after seeing him restore their home.
In their heart, he was their eternal God, now and forever.
Tears began leaking from the people, whether this was soul beast or humans, child or the elderly.
Soul Masters or the normal humans, nothing could stop the emotion that swelled up in people around.
Everyone in Tenrou City began chanting and shouting out words that rang through the whole city.
"Hail to the Emperor!"
"Hail to our God!"
"Hail to Tang Wulin!"
