Chapter 3354: The Agreement

Federation!

"It has been several days since the Spirit Pagoda convened the meeting to encircle and suppress the evil Soul Masters, but the Spirit Pagoda seems to have vanished into thin air," said Guan Yue, propping up her chin and gazing at the map on the table.

"What exactly has been happening during this period?"

She remembered very clearly that at that time, Gu Yuena had been extremely determined, appearing resolute not to give up until the evil Soul Masters were completely eradicated!

Now that there was no news at all, it was indeed a bit puzzling...

While contemplating, a voice came from outside...

"Report... Report to the Hall Master, your subordinate has something to report!"

Her train of thought interrupted, Guan Yue was not annoyed but casually said, "Come in."

Upon receiving permission, the Federation Member outside pushed open the door and entered...

"Hall Master!"

Guan Yue nodded her head in acknowledgment and took the initiative to inquire, "You just mentioned you have a report to make; is it about news from War God Ao Rui and the others?"

The former shook their head in denial, "Replying to the Hall Master, we have yet to receive any messages from War God Ao Rui and the others; they must still be on their way to the Douling Empire."

Guan Yue expressed her understanding, "I see, then talk about the matters you're not here to report."

After all, every passageway into the Douling Empire was occupied by evil Soul Masters, so a delay was normal!

Seeing her reaction, the Federation Member answered truthfully, "It's like this, just now, the Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin, seems to wish for a meeting with you."

"He says there's something he wants to discuss."

Guan Yue raised her eyebrows, "Tang Wulin? That's somewhat unusual."

Apart from seeing him at the last meeting, they had no contact during this period!

To suddenly express a desire to meet was rather surprising...

The former cautiously asked, "Hall Master, would you like to meet with Hall Master Tang?"

Guan Yue replied almost without hesitation, "Meet him, of course. Tang Wulin is now the Sea God Pavilion Master, in charge of the entirety of Shrek Academy. Just for that reason alone, I can't refuse!"

"Not to mention the current situation of the Federation and Spirit Pagoda is not that good"

The Federation Member breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, Hall Master. Then your subordinate will send a message to Shrek Academy to arrange the meeting for tomorrow afternoon, is that acceptable?"

Guan Yue didn't refuse, "Mm... let's proceed with that."

"Then, Hall Master, your subordinate will take leave first."

With a simple gesture, the former prepared to turn and leave...

"Wait a moment!"

Guan Yue called out to stop them in time!

The Federation Member halted, puzzled, "Hall Master, do you have further instructions?"

Guan Yue's eyes became more serious, "Regarding the meeting place I've arranged with Hall Master Tang, let's not do it in the Federation, to avoid attracting the Spirit Pagoda's attention!"

The former instantly understood, "I see, no wonder you are the Hall Master, considering every detail so thoroughly!"

Immediately, they approached the map and pointed to a location, "How about we arrange it here then? I've checked this place in advance, and there should be no one from the Spirit Pagoda or any other forces there!"

Guan Yue glanced at the spot and couldn't help but commend...

"Good, the rest is up to you to arrange."

This youngster is not bad, having already scouted the location in advance...

Though naturally, even if they wanted to, the people from the Spirit Pagoda wouldn't be able to find out...

...

On the other side, looking at Tang Wulin sitting next to the Shrek Academy's gate...

Xu Xiaoyan suddenly appeared and patted his shoulder, "Wulin, what are you doing here?"

The latter also came back to his senses, with a hint of worry on his face, "I'm waiting for Hall Master Guan's reply, there are some things I want to discuss with him."

Xu Xiaoyan blinked, surprised, "Eh? What's the matter? Is it so important that you need to go to the federation personally?"

Quickly, she added in a shocked tone, "Wait, don't tell me it's about Gu Yue? If you're thinking about getting the Federation and Spirit Pagoda to put aside their differences, given the current situation, I'm afraid that's impossible!"

If it weren't for the existence of evil Soul Masters, I'm afraid the Spirit Pagoda and the federation would have already started a war!

Tang Wulin, of course, knew this, and said with a wry smile, "I know it's no longer possible for the Spirit Pagoda and the federation to bury the hatchet, but... I still want to do whatever I can!"

"This is my responsibility as the Sea God Pavilion Master."

Xu Xiaoyan shrugged her shoulders, "Well, it seems that I can't stop you."

After a pause, she suddenly leaned closer to him, "But to be honest, if a great war really does break out in the future, which side will you stand on?"

Tang Wulin, who had already considered this question, replied in the most serious tone, "I will stand with the common people, they are innocent!"

But the next second, he sighed, "Easy to say, but I don't know if I have the capability."

"At times like this, it would be good if Teacher Xu were here. With his strength, he could totally stop the federation and the Spirit Pagoda!"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Xu Xiaoyan's cheeks, "Teach... Teacher Xu?"

Tang Wulin seemed to realize something, suspiciously saying, "Xiao Yan, you haven't forgotten Teacher Xu, have you?"

Xu Xiaoyan immediately defended herself, "Wulin, how could that be possible? Without Teacher Xu, we wouldn't be where we are today."

"It's just that it's been almost one or two years since Teacher Xu got involved in that trouble, and there has been no sign of his return."

"To be honest, Teacher Xu is very likely to have already..."

As they got to this point, both of their moods started to become downcast…

"Oh come on, I can't even listen to you guys anymore!"

Xie Xie, who had been hiding in the shadows and eavesdropping, suddenly sprang out...

His gaze intently fixed on the two of them, he reproached, "Teacher Xu is a Divine King from the Divine Realm, even stronger than Wulin's father."

"That Abyssal Emperor is just a beast that luckily gained wisdom, nowhere near capable of being Teacher Xu's opponent!"

"In my opinion, the reason why Teacher Xu hasn't returned is not that he can't, but because there is no need!"

"Consider this, Teacher Xu's true identity has already been exposed. If he were to intervene in the Lower Realm again, wouldn't that be a loss-making deal?"

As these words left his mouth, they left Xu Xiaoyan and Tang Wulin unsure of how to rebut...

"This…"

Xie Xie narrowed his eyes, "What? Don't you two think so?"

Tang Wulin shook his head, a shift in his previous attitude, "Xie Xie, what you just said makes sense. We were thinking too much. Perhaps Teacher Xu has already returned to the Divine Realm."

Xu Xiaoyan also nodded in agreement, "Yeah, Wulin and I were thinking too narrowly. At a time like this, Xie Xie, your brain is actually quite handy, isn't it?"

Xie Xie gave her a fierce glare and said defensively, "Tsk, my brain has always been very handy. It's just that you've been distracted by my handsome and dashing appearance."

Having said that, he even struck what he thought to be a suave pose...

"Heh... hehe, Xie Xie, when did you become so narcissistic? Does Ye Hui know about this?"
