Meeting (4)

Gu Yuena's words made Yun Ming jump to his feet, his aura sharp and cold, no longer the graceful and easygoing man he had been.

He glared at Gu Yuena and said in a stern tone: "That's not a funny joke!"

Gu Yuena seemed unfazed by Yun Ming's pressure. She gently set down the teacup in her hand and said, "If you think so, then take it as a joke."

Yun Ming and Yali both frowned as they looked at Gu Yuena's smiling face, wondering why she was so hostile to Shrek and Tangmen.

They turned to Anping, who was calm and composed, and saw that he had no objection to Gu Yuena's proposal. They couldn't understand where they got the nerve to say such things in front of them. They didn't think it had anything to do with Leng Yaozhu.

But Yun Ming had tried every method he could think of to reach the god level. Now that he had such a rare opportunity before him, he didn't want to give up.

Yun Ming took a deep breath to calm his somewhat chaotic thoughts, sat back in his seat, and said in a low voice: "Tell me, what are the conditions for us to enter that sea area, besides breaking up with Shrek and Tangmen? I don't think that would benefit you in any way."

Gu Yuena shook her head slightly and said: "Do you think we don't know that you want to break through to the god level? I can tell you clearly that you can indeed do that in that sea area, as long as you agree to my conditions."

Hearing Gu Yuena's words, Yun Ming and Yali's expressions changed. Although Yun Ming was known as the strongest person, his true strength and how close he was to the god level had always been secrets. Very few people knew.

Yun Ming was shocked to be exposed like this. He said, "Who are you? The Spirit Pagoda doesn't know that I'm about to break through to the god level."

Just as Yun Ming said, only Yali knew about his creation of his own godhood. He trusted that Yali wouldn't tell anyone.

Although he still didn't understand why Gu Yuena was so certain that Yun Ming could break through to the god level in that sea area, Anping knew that it was impossible for Yun Ming and Yali to sever ties with Shrek and Tangmen.

He stopped Gu Yuena from provoking Yun Ming further, and shook his head slightly. He said: "Nana, it might work for someone else, but he won't agree to your conditions."

Gu Yuena looked at Anping and said in surprise: "Why? You must know that there's a huge gap between the god level and the titled Douluo, even though he's only one step away from the god level now."

Anping explained: "You don't know him. Shrek Academy and Tang Sect are the faith of these people. They would give their lives for Shrek Academy and Tang Sect."

Although Gu Yuena still didn't understand, she chose to trust Anping's judgment. She shook her head slightly and stopped talking.

Yun Ming looked at Anping with surprise. He didn't expect him to say such words. He said: "He's right. If I have to break with Shrek and Tangmen to reach the god level, I'd rather give up this chance."

"And what I'm more curious about now is, who are you? Yaozhu wouldn't let you split Shrek and Tangmen. Are you from the Federation? Or from the Holy Spirit Cult?"

Yun Ming didn't believe that Anping and Gu Yuena had such motives for the sake of the Spirit Pagoda, based on the relationship between Leng Yaozhu and him.

Yun Ming had considered the possibility that Anping and Gu Yuena were soul beasts, but he dismissed it. He felt that his divine realm spiritual power would have detected some clues if they were.

Gu Yuena had no idea what Yun Ming was thinking. She snapped at him: "Stop guessing. We're not from the Federation or the Holy Spirit Cult. And our identities are none of your business. If you have nothing else to say, you can leave."

Gu Yuena didn't seem to be lying, so Yun Ming had to assume that Anping and Gu Yuena belonged to some hidden family that was hostile to Shrek and Tangmen. He decided not to dwell on this issue any longer.

He pondered for a moment and then asked the question that he cared about the most: "If it's not a place of divine inheritance, how can you be so sure that I can break through to the god level in that sea area?"

Yun Ming hadn't given up on the opportunity before him. He wanted to hear Gu Yuena's answer and what price he would have to pay to enter that area.

Gu Yuena looked at Yun Ming with pity and said calmly: "I can tell you clearly that it's not a place of divine inheritance. As for why you can make a breakthrough, don't you know why you haven't been able to?"

Gu Yuena's pitiful gaze baffled Yun Ming, but he still said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's because the disappearance of the God Realm has made the Douluo Star unable to sustain god-level power. Is there some connection between that area and the God Realm?"

Ever since he reached his current state, Yun Ming felt a dark force that stopped him from advancing further. He had fought with Chen Xinjie in the sky above the sky, trying to break through the plane's limits, but he had failed.

He and Chen Xinjie had concluded that the plane was suppressing the soul masters because of the disappearance of the God Realm. Now that Gu Yuena claimed that he could break through to the god level in the area that he couldn't enter, he thought that the area must have some link to the God Realm.

Gu Yuena shook her head slightly and said: "The reason why you can't break through to the god level is because of the suppression of the planet's will. He doesn't allow god-level power to exist on Douluo Planet, and it has nothing to do with whether the God Realm is gone or not."

Anping understood why Gu Yuena was confident that Yun Ming could break through in the area chosen by the Planets' will. Although Tang Hao's will as a planet was formidable, it was nothing compared to the will of the Planets.

Yun Ming also realized this, but unlike Anping, he didn't know that the planet's will was no longer the original one, but had been replaced by Tang San with his father Tang Hao.

He thought for a moment and then asked again: "So that area is free from the suppression of the planet's will? Can you tell me why?"
