Chapter 2041: Heading to East Sea Academy (Please Subscribe)_1

Gu Yue didn't say much and immediately took out the items from her storage soul tool…

It was a scroll-like piece of paper, which, when completely unrolled, revealed dense rows of text…

Clearly recorded there were the details of the cooperation between Spirit Pagoda and Holy Spirit Cult…

After carefully examining it for a while, Tang Wulin's throat tightened, "So it turns out, the reason why Spirit Pagoda imprisoned my parents is connected to the Holy Spirit Cult!"

As the words left him, a thick killing intent emanated from his eyes…

His own parents better be safe, or else, he would surely slaughter Spirit Pagoda and Holy Spirit Cult in revenge!

Gu Yue whispered beside him, "Wulin, don't get too agitated. These actions were likely undertaken during Qiangugu Dongfeng's tenure, and the current Spirit Pagoda isn't colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult."

"Moreover, we now know the location where your parents are imprisoned; this is good news!"

Tang Wulin regained his composure from his anger and said solemnly, "Hmm."

The place where his parents were imprisoned might still harbor evil Soul Masters; he had to calm down and think of a foolproof plan!

If he were to harm them out of impulsiveness, he would live in its shadow for the rest of his life!

As the two were talking, Tang Wulin's communicator suddenly rang…

"Wulin, is Gu Yue with you?"

The familiar tone immediately revealed to Tang Wulin who was on the other side!

First looking at Gu Yue, he replied, "Yes, Teacher Wu, Gu Yue and I are together. What's the matter?"

The latter also showed a puzzled expression, waiting for the response…

Wu Changkong took a deep breath, "Return to the academy first. I have a task that you need to complete!"

After exchanging glances, they both said in unison, "Alright, we'll be right there!"

...

Soon after, Tang Wulin and Gu Yue had returned to Shrek Academy!

Upon seeing them, the other members of the Shrek Seven Monsters all had strange expressions on their faces…

Xie Xie was the first to speak, "Yo, Wulin, you and Gu Yue finally came back. Did you do anything last night?"

Tang Wulin was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Xie Xie, what do you mean?"

Yue Zhengyu wrapped an arm around Tang Wulin's shoulder, "Cough cough… Wulin, stop pretending. We're all men here. At night, of course, it's time to do what lovers do!"

Ye Xinglan, Xu Xiaoyan, and Yuanen Yehui, standing nearby, blushed at these words, yet there was a hint of anticipation in their eyes…

Although they all had partners, to be honest, they hadn't done that sort of thing yet!

Gu Yue said with a deadpan face, "Xie Xie, Yue Zhengyu, what are you thinking! Wulin and I just went to the Blacksmith Association."

Tang Wulin echoed, "Yes, Gu Yue and I really just went to the Blacksmith Association!"

He had considered it, but until he understood Gu Yue's stance, he would never do anything inappropriate!

The expressions on Xie Xie and Yue Zhengyu's faces changed as they turned their heads away, muttering, "Tsk, how boring."

Approaching them, Wu Changkong looked at everyone, "It looks like everyone is here. I was concerned that this might be too much for you to handle, but… it seems I worried for nothing!"

Xie Xie responded doubtfully, "Overwhelmed? Teacher Wu, what exactly are you planning to have us do? It isn't something dangerous, is it?"

Xu Xiaoyan mused, "I think it's likely that we are to pursue evil Soul Masters, given that the inner court disciples have this duty."

Yue Zhengyu rolled his eyes, "Seriously? Just when we finally get back to the academy, we have to deal with this kind of thing…"

Ye Xinglan's expression remained unchanged as she said, "Teacher Wu, just tell us directly. No matter what the mission is, we will do our best to complete it!"

Xu Lizhi nodded in agreement, "Yeah! I will also do my best to support everyone!"

Wu Changkong shook his head and spoke indifferently, "Don't be nervous. It's not anything dangerous. It's just that, due to a certain promise, you need to make a trip to East Sea Academy!"

In the past, I had promised the principal of Sea God's Pavilion Academy that if Tang Wulin and his two friends ever achieved anything, I would let them return to enhance the academy's prestige!

Now, it was time!

As soon as the words fell, Xu Xiaoyan asked with confusion, "East Sea Academy, isn't that Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, and Xie Xie's alma mater? What are we going there for?"

Yue Zhengyu chimed in, "Yeah, if it's just a visit to the alma mater, shouldn't Tang Wulin and the others go by themselves?"

Xu Lizhi muttered, "We're not close with East Sea Academy, there's no reason for us to go, is there?"

Xie Xie somewhat exasperatedly said, "Hey, hey, don't split hairs so much. We are the Shrek Seven Monsters, of course we should go together!"

Then he threw a charming glance, "Besides, don't you all want to experience the attention that comes with the title 'Shrek Seven Monsters'??"

If we didn't experience it now, that honor would belong to the new Shrek Seven Monsters!

Tang Wulin, standing nearby, covered his forehead, "Xie Xie, are you so happy just because of that?"

Indeed, they had left East Sea Academy many years ago!

At that time, the academy had spent quite a bit of resources to nurture them. Both emotionally and logically, they should return for a visit!

Turning his gaze to Gu Yue, he asked, "Gu Yue, what do you think?"

After a moment of contemplation, she softly said, "It's good. Let's go back and have a look. Who knows what we might discover!"

It was only then that Wu Changkong continued, "The rest of you go get ready. Tang Wulin, you stay behind!"

The one who was kept behind, Tang Wulin, looked at Wu Changkong with a puzzled face. Although he did not speak, it was as if he had said everything…

Wu Changkong's expression grew progressively more solemn, "Wulin, do you know why I asked you to stay?"

A clang echoed in Tang Wulin's heart, and he guessed, "Teacher Wu, you're not going to say that there might be evil Soul Masters in that city and that we should be careful, are you?"

Hearing these words, Wu Changkong's eyes revealed a complexity of emotions…

Indeed, what he wanted to warn Tang Wulin about was that recently, quite a number of evil Soul Masters had secretly infiltrated Soul Land!

Especially the closer to the ports, the more dangerous it became!

Seeing this, Tang Wulin's face suddenly turned to the color of a bitter melon. "I haven't guessed correctly, have I? Are there really evil Soul Masters in that city?"

Wu Changkong pursed his lips and confirmed, "Yes, you're right. I'm telling only you this because I don't want the whole team to get involved. It's enough to return safely, understand?"

He was afraid that the increased soul power ranks of the Shrek Seven Monsters might lead them to actively provoke the evil Soul Masters!

No matter the outcome, any casualty would be a huge loss!

Tang Wulin firmly said, "Teacher Wu, don't worry. We will be careful!"

He only hoped that the evil Soul Masters would not appear while they traveled on the Soul Guidance Train…

After all, many of the incidents before were related to them!

Wu Changkong patted his shoulder and said, "Alright, I've said everything I need to say. Go and prepare to set off as well!"
