Chapter 3321: Restoring the Seat

Guo Xiaoxu suddenly reached out and grabbed the other person's wrist, "Wait!"

The corners of Liang Xiaoyu's mouth slightly lifted, "What are you doing, Hall Master Guo? I don't have such inclinations!"

Guo Xiaoxu was momentarily stunned, then quickly released his hold and shouted loudly, "Neither do I!!"

His voice had diminished slightly by the end...

"I just wanted to ask you, what did the Sect Leader say..."

He had clearly gone to the soul beast forest to gather information, yet he had not only failed to gather any clear information but had nearly been killed by the Thousand Demon King!

Such an incident was a huge disgrace for the Tang Sect!

Liang Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then pondered and said, "Sect Leader? Oh, you mean that. After you came back injured, he didn't say anything, but he did issue an order!"

"That is to restore your legitimate seat within the Tang Sect!"

"Which means that, starting from today, you are still the Hall Master of the Tang Sect, congratulations!"

Guo Xiaoxu did not feel happy but expressed concern, "But if that's the case, about Xinglan..."

He did not want to cause a misunderstanding with Ye Xinglan because of his own reasons!

After all, it had not been easy to finally get the latter to agree to take up the position of Hall Master!

However, Liang Xiaoyu had anticipated this question and immediately comforted, "Don't worry, the Sect Leader had already considered this situation. Although he has restored your position as Hall Master, you are taking over Zhao Chong's position!"

"This means that your position as Hall Master does not conflict with Xinglan's!"

Guo Xiaoxu also calmed down and couldn't help but smile, "I see... As expected of the Sect Leader, I should have thought of this!"

Liang Xiaoyu waved his hand, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll leave now. You should rest here and heal. If you come out while still injured, the Sect Leader is probably going to nag again!"

Really, the Sect Leader could have told Hall Master Guo this himself, yet he made me do it!

Could it be that he's embarrassed?

Impossible, with a face as thick as a city wall like that, he most likely just found it too troublesome!

Watching his departing figure, Guo Xiaoxu placed his hand on his chest, wrapped in bandages, "Thank you, Hall Master Liang!"

...

The next day, Sea God's Pavilion!

Looking at the sighing Xie Xie and others, Cai Yue'er could not help but speak up to break the silence...

"What's with everyone today? You all look off, especially Xie Xie, who has been sighing ever since he entered the Sea God's Pavilion."

"Did something happen yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Yuanen Zhentian glanced at his granddaughter, noticing her expression was also not great, and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh, I thought it was just my imagination!"

Senior Brother Lan's gaze shifted between Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan's faces, propping up his chin and said, "I think, maybe something unexpected happened during the trip to the ruins."

Tang Yinmeng nodded in agreement and said, "I think so too!"

After a pause, she turned to Tang Wulin, who was sitting at the head of the table, and said, "Wulin, you better explain, or we will all be very confused."

Tang Wulin sighed and acknowledged, "Yes, after we went to the ruins yesterday, we confirmed that there was indeed some instability in the space there, and it wasn't just the students' imagination!"

Upon hearing this, even Cai Yue'er could hardly stay composed and exclaimed, "Spatial instability, does that mean Teacher Xu might be coming back?"

If Xu Sheng was to return, Shrek Academy wouldn't need to worry about any accidents occurring!

That man, after all, is known as the strongest person currently!

Yuan En Zhentian asserted, "It's very possible. Isn't Teacher Xu a Divine King? Since he was able to subdue the Abyssal Emperor, his strength must be terrifyingly strong, and coming back shouldn't be a problem at all!"

Lan Muzi pursed his lips and shook his head. "I have a different opinion on this matter. If Teacher Xu had a way to come back, he would have used it already. The fact that there's still no sign of him probably means something has gone wrong!"

Tang Yinmeng pouted, "Mu Zi, how can you say that? Teacher Xu is immensely powerful; he definitely won't be in any trouble!"

Tang Wulin coughed, "As the elders have said, we too hope that Teacher Xu can return. That's why we want to take advantage of the turmoil to open the space!"

"But regardless of whether it's Xie Xie with Spatial Ability or Xiao Yan, both have ended in failure!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan both hung their heads, clearly feeling guilty...

Everyone had heard how powerful their Spatial Abilities were, but now they couldn't do anything!

Cai Yue'er naturally noticed their extremely low spirits and understood everything...

"So that's it, no wonder you both looked so upset!"

"However, Xiao Yan, Xie Xie, you don't need to blame yourselves. After all, it's a space created from a battle between Divine Kings; it's not going to be that easy to open. Failure is actually the norm!"

Xu Xiaoyan mustered a weak smile, "We know, Elder Cai, it's just that we're a bit unwilling to accept it!"

Xie Xie also agreed with this statement. "Yeah, if we could break through to the God Rank, perhaps we could really help Teacher Xu!"

At that moment, Lan Muzi seemed to think of something and suddenly interrupted, "Wait a second... Speaking of Spatial Abilities, both Xie Xie and Xiao Yan possess these powers as part of their Martial Souls. To my knowledge, the only one who can freely use Spatial Ability is Gu Yuena, right?"

Tang Yinmeng's eyes lit up, and she excitedly said, "Exactly, I've also seen Gu Yue use Spatial Ability. She can cross kilometers, even tens of thousands of meters, in the blink of an eye!"

"If it's her, she might be able to help!"

But just as she finished speaking, everyone turned to look at them...

At first, there was a bit of confusion, but soon, the two realized something, and their expressions slowly became somewhat awkward...

They had almost forgotten that Gu Yuena, as of now, was not a student at Shrek Academy but the master of the Spirit Pagoda, and not someone they could easily ask for a favor!

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent...

Finally, it was Tang Wulin, the Pavilion Master, who broke the stillness...

"Actually, my thoughts are the same as Senior Brother Lan's!"

"If Gu Yue were to make a move, with her mastery in Spatial Ability, she should be able to open that space, but the precondition is... that Gu Yue is willing!"

This was indeed the real trouble!

Cai Yue'er took a deep breath. "Wulin, I remember that Gu Yue was once Teacher Xu's most valued disciple, wasn't she? He even began teaching her from the Junior College, so they must have a deep bond!"

"Facing this matter, she should be willing to help, right?"

Gu Yuena's excellence today must certainly be linked to Xu Sheng!

As long as she wasn't so heartless and cold, she shouldn't refuse!

However, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie exchanged glances...

The former then responded with a complicated tone, "Elder Cai, if you're suggesting we use her feelings to coerce Gu Yue into action, I'm afraid the outcome might be disappointing!"
