Chapter 2169: The Crisis of the Body Sect (Subscription Requested)_1

Xu Sheng glanced at the sky outside the window, which had gradually darkened...

He stood up with a smile and said, "It's getting late, I should be leaving now!"

Xie Xie expressed his surprise, "Eh? Teacher Xu, aren't you planning to stay with us at this hotel?"

Xu Xiaoyan voiced her disappointment, "But it's already very late, where are you going, Teacher Xu?"

Ye Xinglan pondered, "Even if you're returning to the academy, it would take a lot of time on the Soul Guidance Train, right?"

Yuanen Yehui, however, refuted the previous statement, "Have you all forgotten that Teacher Xu possesses a Spatial Soul Skill? Reaching the academy would take but an instant!"

"My strength has grown to this level today, largely thanks to Teacher Xu!"

Yue Zhengyu wholeheartedly agreed, "Indeed... when we first saw Teacher Xu's Spatial Soul Skill, it almost scared our eyes out of their sockets!"

Xie Xie, noticing the direction of the conversation was veering off, said, "No, that's not what I meant... Teacher Xu, as an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, don't you plan to deal with these evil Soul Masters?"

Eradicating evil Soul Masters is also a responsibility of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, isn't it?

Xu Sheng just gave him a glance, "My thoughts are the same as yours; the Federation and Spirit Pagoda will handle it!"

It was then that Tang Wulin spoke with respectful tone, "Since you're heading back, Teacher Xu, we won't hold you up!"

With Teacher Xu leaving, at least there would be no chance of the Azure Oxpython and Titan Ape inside the Ten Thousand Beast Platform being discovered!

He was still hoping to learn more about his parents from them!

After signaling a farewell, Xu Sheng left the hotel...

It was at this moment that the gazes of the Shrek Seven Monsters turned to Tang Wulin...

They were not so naive and had sensed something was off with him all along...

But due to Xu Sheng's presence, they had refrained from exposing it publicly!

Ye Xinglan said in a low voice, "Wulin, are you hiding something? Both when you came out of the Spirit Pagoda and when we encountered Teacher Xu, your behavior has been very strange!"

Yue Zhengyu also spoke seriously, "Yes, in your speech, you seemed to be urging Teacher Xu to leave!"

Xu Xiaoyan's beautiful eyes shone bright, "We are comrades, Wulin. Is there anything you can't tell us?"

Tang Wulin wanted to explain, but he lowered his head and said, "Everyone, it's not that I want to keep things from you intentionally, it's just that some matters aren't convenient to reveal!"

Indeed, he had been keeping many secrets from his comrades...

For instance, Gu Yue's true form was a soul beast, and his father was Sea God Tang San...

But these were to maintain the "friendship" of the Shrek Seven Monsters!

At this moment, Xie Xie suddenly clapped his hands a few times, breaking the awkward atmosphere...

He joked, "Why so serious, everyone? Even if Wulin is hiding something, it must be for our own good. It's not like he could harm us, his companions of over a decade, right?"

Xu Lizhi also helped to ease the tension, "Mhm, if Wulin hasn't told us, he must have his reasons. Besides, everyone has their own secrets!"

Yuanen Yehui shifted their focus, "Alright, let's end this topic here. Let's get ready to take care of those evil Soul Masters who have infiltrated this place!"

She had always been aware of those evil Soul Masters, with their repulsive aura, rapidly approaching!

Ye Xinglan sighed, "Alright, we won't pursue the matter this time, but Wulin, if anything happens in the future, you must tell us!"

"No matter the difficulty, we will help you. The Shrek Seven Monsters are one!"

...

Blacksmith Association!

Zhen Hua was somewhat exasperated, "That brat Wulin has completely put aside his smithing during this period!"

After the martial arts competition for marriage, Tang Wulin had a breakthrough and became a Titled Douluo; he spent a few intimate days with Gu Yue before he and his companions went to the Tang Sect!

Before he left, he was specifically instructed to make a trip to the Blacksmith Association!

Beside him, Mu Ye joked, "Old pal, do you really need to be so angry?"

Upon hearing this, Zhen Hua retorted, "What do you know! If that kid put in a little more effort, he could very likely become the second Divine Craftsman after me!"

"However... the most crucial step to becoming a Divine Craftsman is Heavenly Forging. I hope to impart my experience to him while I am still capable of forging!"

By rights, Gu Yue was his disciple!

However, in terms of forging, he had taught Tang Wulin knowledge that was perhaps even ten times more than the former!

Mu Ye exclaimed, "Heavenly Forging? Are you saying that brat Wulin is already qualified to forge a Four-Word Battle Armor?"

Zhen Hua curled his lips and said, "Hmph, what else do you think?"

If it weren't for Tang Wulin's exceptional talent, why would he, a Divine Craftsman, humbly teach someone else!

Taking a deep breath, Mu Ye said, "How about I go fetch that kid for you right now?"

Zhen Hua shook his hand dismissively, "Forget it, you might not necessarily be a match for that kid now! Didn't you see the strength he showed in the competition?"

Without using an Assault Mecha or Four-Word Battle Armor, his true strength was only at the level of a Super Douluo of level 95, not considered as one of the top powerhouses on the Continent!

Mu Ye's face darkened, "Are you mocking me?"

After living for so many years, how could he not be a match for Tang Wulin, who had just barely broken through to become a Titled Douluo?

Zhen Hua seemed to have caught hold of some leverage and his mood improved significantly...

"Of course not, I wouldn't dare mock you. It's just that you'll never breach the rank of a Super Douluo of level 95 in this lifetime, hahaha!"

Clenching his fist, Mu Ye spat out, "Bullshit, that's because I put all my life's work into mechas, otherwise I would definitely be an Ultimate Douluo!"

Not being able to break through the level of a Super Douluo of level 95 was a lifelong pain for him!

At the same moment, they sensed a fluctuation of soul power...

Mu Ye's expression changed, and he immediately released his Martial Soul, shouting, "Who's there??"

A muscular man appeared, bending over respectfully and said, "Sect Master, it's me. There's been trouble with the Body Sect!"

Mu Ye's pupils constricted, "What? What exactly has happened?"

The man took a deep breath and explained, "Just earlier, our Body Sect was attacked by the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters; we resisted without your leadership!"

"But they had a Limit Douluo among them, and we were simply no match for them. Currently, two elders have fallen along with hundreds of disciples!"

Mu Ye's expression grew colder as he glanced at Zhen Hua, "Old friend, I must leave now. These despicable Evil Soul Masters from the Holy Spirit Cult, to take such vile actions while I am away!"

Zhen Hua nodded, "Be very careful. The Holy Spirit Cult's assault on the Body Sect this time, I'm afraid their true intention is to proclaim the return of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

"If anything unexpected happens, contact me immediately!"

Despite the fact that the Blacksmith Association did not have many powerful Soul Masters!
