Chapter 2445: The Final Decision_1

After hearing these words, Tang Wulin fell silent...

It took him a full few minutes before he stared intently at the Titan Ape and the Azure Oxpython, and said expressionlessly, "Elders, aren't you friends with my father? Why do you want me to help Gu Yue implement the plan?"

They looked at each other and embarrassment crept onto their faces...

The Azure Oxpython explained, "Wulin, though we've taken on human forms, we have evolved from soul beasts after all, and we can't bear to see the Soul Beast Clan just go extinct!"

The Titan Ape chimed in, "That's right, you know, it was humans who first broke the promise and exterminated the soul beasts. Otherwise, how could the Soul Beast Clan have fallen to the state it's in today?"

"In the end, it's all because of human greed!!"

Tang Wulin opened his mouth as if to retort but understood that the facts were just as they were said...

For a moment, a bitter taste surged up in his heart...

The Azure Oxpython once again tried to reassure him, "Look, Wulin, you shouldn't feel too pressured. Whatever we said is just our personal opinion. Ultimately, the decision is yours to make!"

Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment before blurting out the question buried in his heart, "Elders, if I were unwilling to, what would you do?"

This time it was the Titan Ape who was stunned...

However, he quickly recovered, smiling and saying, "What would we do? This is between you all; Big Brother and I won't get involved!"

The Azure Oxpython added, "Yes, no matter what the outcome is, my little brother and I will not interfere in your affairs!"

They still leaned towards Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena...

Tang Wulin felt warmth in his heart and smiled, "Elders, thank you!"

The Azure Oxpython finally said with relief, "It looks like you've made your decision, haven't you?"

He nodded heavily, "Yes, I will not stop Gu Yue from revitalizing the Soul Beast Clan, but if the final result threatens humans, I will oppose her, even if she is my enemy, to protect humanity!"

Since Gu Yue had already made a choice, he shouldn't be hesitant either!

The Azure Oxpython sighed and thought, "As expected."

Still, he replied, "Wulin, we will convey your intentions to Gu Yuena. You must still have questions, right?"

Tang Wulin's gaze turned profound, "Yes."

"Elders, could you tell me, what exactly happened before I fell unconscious?"

His sea of consciousness was blank, and he vaguely remembered that after the departure of the Spirit Emperor, he encountered the Dark Bell and the Ming Emperor!

Naturally, the Titan Ape and the Azure Oxpython told him everything without reservation...

After hearing it all, Tang Wulin suddenly realized, "I see, so it was the surge of killing intent that affected the Golden Dragon Rage Domain, causing it to change, wasn't it?"

It seemed that he mustn't allow his emotions to dominate when using the Domain in the future, lest such an incident recur!

Before he could think any longer, the Azure Oxpython and his companion stood up, "Alright, Wulin, we have said what we needed to say, and we need to maintain the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, we must depart now!"

After a gesture, they left the place...

Tang Wulin shifted his gaze away, gripped the Sea God's Trident planted in the ground beside him, pulled it out, and said solemnly, "Alright, I should return to the defense line too, I wonder if the Abyssal Emperors have launched a second wave of attacks!"

...

After returning to the defense line, Tang Wulin was surrounded by the Shrek Seven Monsters and the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion...

Xie Xie said impatiently, "Wulin, you're finally back, if you hadn't returned, I would have thought those two powerhouses had done you in!"

Tang Wulin scratched his head and made up a casual excuse, "Xie Xie, you're making it sound too severe. I was just healing my injuries and it took a little more time!"

Yue Zhengyu then moved closer to Tang Wulin, propped up his chin, and scrutinized his whole body with suspicion, "Really or not, you seem to be completely uninjured!"

Tang Wulin felt a bit uneasy in his heart and waved his hands, "Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to everyone?"

Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes, "Hmm, I believe Wulin. He wouldn't lie to us!"

The only one, Yuanen Yehui, narrowed his eyes and whispered to Yuan En Zhentian beside him, "Grandfather, do you feel it?"

The latter nodded slightly, "Hmm, a very familiar aura..."

It seemed to be the aura left by their ancestor, the Titan Ape!

That meant one of the powerful beings who saved Tang Wulin could very likely be the Titan Ape!

Of course, even though they had this information, they did not reveal it on the spot...

Otherwise, it would be like pulling the rug out from under Tang Wulin!

Long Yeyue said very calmly, "Wulin, it's good that you've returned safely. Longkong has been worried about you the whole time!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin's gaze turned to Wu Changkong, "Teacher Wu..."

The latter averted his face, saying indifferently, "I was just anxious about the upcoming battle, don't think too much about it!"

Tang Yinmeng said with a sour tone, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Wulin, you express gratitude towards Longkong, but what about thanking me? I also prayed for you in secret!"

Lan Muzi was holding back a bit of emotion, "Yin Meng, you're not a kid anymore. Why make a fuss over this!"

Sometimes, Tang Yinmeng was even more mature than herself, but at times, she could be as mischievous as a child!

But perhaps, that's exactly why he had fallen for her!

But Tang Wulin did not take it as a joke and once again expressed his gratitude earnestly, "Thank you Elder Tang and everyone who was worried about me!"

Tang Yinmeng muttered to herself, "I was just teasing, why is Wulin taking it so seriously..."

At that moment, Guan Yue and Le Zhengen, who had fully recovered under Ya Li's treatment, also stepped forward...

Both spoke up, "Wulin, seeing you return safely puts my mind at ease!"

"Good, it seems those two powerhouses didn't hurt you!"

Seeing this, Tang Wulin earnestly said, "Hall Master Guan! Commander Le, thank you for earlier. Otherwise, I very likely would have fallen victim to the Abyssal Emperor and the Dark Bell."

They could have surrendered him to the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master to save their own lives but chose to stand their ground and protect him instead!

Just that alone was enough for him to deeply respect them!

Guan Yue shook her head, objecting, "Speaking of which, we should be the ones thanking you. If it had not been for your support, we would have already fallen at the hands of the Spirit Emperor!"

"Besides, our Soul Power was already depleted back then and we weren't of much help. If anyone should be thanked, it's those two powerhouses who suddenly appeared!"

Tang Wulin didn't change his mind, "Even so, it's still worth my gratitude!"

Long Yeyue, a bit helpless, interjected, "Alright, alright, Wulin, you can stop thanking everyone now. As the Sea God Pavilion Master, now that you are back safely, it's time to start discussing how we will face the upcoming battle!"

The upcoming battle, the Abyssal Emperor might personally join...
