Xu Xiaoyan lowered her head and murmured, "Maybe, Gu Yue isn't planning to use the Ten Thousand Beast Platform to control us."
"But Wulin, if we really become enemies with Gu Yue in the future, what should we do?"
As long as Gu Yuena doesn't give up her plan to revive soul beasts, it will certainly affect the peace of Soul Land!
And the purpose of Shrek Academy's existence is to prevent such things from happening!
This question seemed to touch upon Tang Wulin's blind spot, and he immediately changed the subject, "Xiao Yan, don't think too much about it for now, at least as far as we can see, Gu Yue's revival of soul beasts hasn't posed any threat to humans!"
Realizing that he didn't want to continue the conversation, she tactfully didn't press further, "Sorry, Wulin, for taking up so much of your time!"
Tang Wulin shook his head to indicate he didn't mind, "It's okay, let's go back, otherwise, Zheng Yu might get jealous!"
Xu Xiaoyan snorted with laughter, "Seeing Zheng Yu's jealous face seems pretty good too, hee hee..."
"Besides, even if I really did change my mind, Wulin, you couldn't possibly accept it, right?"
After all, in his mind, Gu Yuena was always number one!
The corner of Tang Wulin's mouth twitched, "Xiao Yan, you shouldn't say such things, otherwise, I might misunderstand!"
Of course, the most tragic outcome would be if Yue Zhengyu overheard and then unnecessary trouble ensued!
Xu Xiaoyan playfully stuck out her tongue, "It's just a joke. I do love Zheng Yu very much. Let's go; everyone else must be getting impatient!"
Without waiting for his response, she turned and left…
Tang Wulin opened his mouth but then followed her...
Seeing them return, unsurprisingly, Yue Zhengyu immediately approached Tang Wulin and asked quietly, "Wulin, what did Xiao Yan talk to you about? Can you tell me?"
The latter coughed discreetly, "Well, that's a secret. If you really want to know, you can ask Xiao Yan!"
Yue Zhengyu immediately dismissed the idea, "Then forget it. But let me tell you, Wulin, you'd better not have any ideas about Xiao Yan, otherwise..."
He paused for a moment, patted Tang Wulin's shoulder, and said in a completely trusting tone, "Well, I was going to say that, but I trust your character, Wulin!!"
Hearing this, Xie Xie, with a mischievous smile, turned to Xu Xiaoyan, "Xiao Yan, I have something I want to talk to you about in private!"
Mischievously, Xu Xiaoyan responded, "Sure, it's too noisy here. Let's go to the academy dorms for a chat!"
Yue Zhengyu's expression changed dramatically, and he turned his head towards Xie Xie, "Xie Xie, you dog thief, you're courting death!!"
After saying that, he charged over...
Xie Xie was startled but as an agile-attack class soul master, he easily dodged...
He protested, "Zheng Yu, I was just joking, why are you so worked up? Didn't Wulin do the same before?"
Yue Zhengyu ignored his words and continued fiercely, "Shut up, can your character compare to Wulin's?"
This scene made the rest of the group burst into laughter...
Tang Wulin felt reflective, "No matter how much time passes, the Shrek Seven Monsters will always be the Shrek Seven Monsters. If we could always continue like this, it would be great!"
Of course, it would be even better if Teacher Xu could take care of the Abyssal Emperor and return safely...
...
Meanwhile, Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan had also arrived outside the Federation Headquarters...
As Tang Wulin said, Federation members were indeed waiting for them outside...
Upon seeing them, a member came forward with a fawning smile, very respectfully saying, "You two must be the Elders of the Sea God's Pavilion sent by Shrek Academy, right? The council members have been waiting for a long time; please follow me!"
Despite their young age, the powerful aura emanating from the two was in no way inferior to any of the federations' Hyper Douluos!
Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan looked at each other and nodded in response...
And so, led by the federation member, they smoothly arrived at the Council Hall...
Upon entering, they saw that the Council Members, including the Chairman, had all taken their seats...
The member, noticing this, spoke up to remind, "Chairman, fellow Council Members, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion have been brought here!"
Upon hearing this, the Council Members also noticed Yuanen Yehui and her companion...
The Chairman at the chief seat nodded and said, "Hmm, you may leave us."
The federation member nodded slightly and quickly exited...
The Chairman then turned his attention to them and said softly, "Elders, thank you for your efforts. Please, take a seat."
He did not show the slightest hint of condescension due to the young age of Yuanen Yehui and her partner...
After all, only the legendary Shrek Seven Monsters could become Elders of the Sea God Pavilion at such a young age!
"Many thanks, Chairman!"
After briefly responding, Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan casually took their seats in an empty spot...
Taking a deep breath, the Chairman's demeanor became serious, "Now that the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion have arrived, let's get straight to the point!"
"A few days ago, the federation sent several vanguard teams into the abyssal plane, and then, they discovered this!"
As his words ended, the large screen in front of them slowly displayed an image...
It was the gruesome sight of several mountains of corpses made from the bodies of abyssal creatures!
Although not seen with their own eyes, the bone-chilling dread was palpable even from the pictures...
Yuanen Yehui swallowed hard, "So many abyssal creatures, all dead!!"
"Could it be the federation's doing??"
Hearing her doubt, the Chairman shook his head, clarifying, "No, that's not the case. I just said we 'discovered' these piles of corpses."
"Which means, the abyssal creatures were already dead before the federation's vanguard teams arrived!"
"Moreover, according to our analysis and comparison, these abyssal creatures were not killed by soul weapons; there are no external injuries on their bodies!"
Ye Xinglan narrowed her eyes, "Are you suggesting soul masters are behind this?"
With so many abyssal creatures, it would be difficult for even several Ultimate Douluos to deal with them all in a short period of time, right?
Furthermore, without any external damage, it would be nearly impossible!
The Chairman gave a wry smile, "As improbable as it sounds, the abyssal creatures were not slain by soul masters!"
"There were no traces of soul power fluctuations detected on their bodies!"
Yuanen Yehui's pupils shrank as she seemed to realize something, "Chairman, are you implying that a God is responsible for this?"
But if it were a God, why would they do such a thing?
The Chairman pressed his lips together and gave a cautious response, "I can't be certain, but the likelihood is great!"
