Chapter 2189: Zhen Hua Awakens (Please Subscribe)_1
The man at the head deliberated for a long time before finally speaking in a deep voice, "Then let's do it that way. With our federation's technology, developing this feature will only take a few months!"
"Let's let the Spirit Pagoda reap some benefits first!"
This statement immediately gained the consensus of the high-ranking members…
Just then, one of the women seemed to remember something and hesitated, "Right… should we offer some help to the Body Sect?"
"There's no need, I've heard that the disciples of the Body Sect have already made contact with the Blood God Army and plan to relocate there!"
"Besides that, the Body Sect now has only a few hundred people left. There's no need to waste time on this, especially since all of their Sect Master and Elders have perished!!"
"Among the major powers, it seems that only the Tang Sect has donated some resources, but it doesn't look like they mean to offer support!"
"That's for certain. Helping the Body Sect now would just be taking on an unnecessary burden!"
If the Sect Master of the Body Sect were still alive, perhaps they would have changed their minds…
But unfortunately, Mu Ye's corpse was found by members of the War God Hall's Army!
The man at the head knocked on the table and scanned the room, "Alright, that's it for today's meeting. Everyone remember to keep it secret; otherwise, if the Spirit Pagoda finds out, they will most likely take countermeasures!"
By then, pulling Soul Masters away from the Spirit Pagoda's clutches would be as hard as ascending to heaven!
...
Days hurried past, and there was still no sign of activity in the forging room…
A somewhat worried Xie Xie could not help but knock on the door of the forging room…
"Tap, tap, tap"
"Wulin, there has been no sound from you at all. You haven't died in there, have you?"
But there was no response; with no other choice, he reluctantly pushed the door open and entered…
The first thing he saw was Tang Wulin lying on the ground, having fallen into a brief slumber…
Rushing to his side, he slapped him several times across the face, shouting, "Wulin, Wulin, are you alright?"
Felling pain on his cheeks, Tang Wulin immediately came to and said with a wry smile, "Stop hitting, stop hitting. I just used too much spiritual power and needed to rest!"
Xie Xie helped him up and patted his chest, "You scared me to death, I thought you had died, Wulin!"
Tang Wulin glared at him, annoyed, "I've become a Titled Douluo, I'm not that easy to kill."
Of course, he also knew that the other person was concerned about his safety!
Looking at the tools on the forging table, Xie Xie asked curiously, "Wulin, over these past days, could it be you've already started trying Heavenly Forging?"
Tang Wulin turned his gaze to the table as well, his expression solemn, "Yes... this so-called 'Heavenly Forging'? It's harder than I imagined. I can understand why Zhen Hua fell into a coma because of it!"
He would have to consult with Zhen Hua if he wanted to succeed in Heavenly Forging!
Hearing this, Xie Xie said with a hint of bragging, "I see, so no progress then. While you've been forging, I managed to increase my Soul Power by one level!"
Tang Wulin was speechless, "You only managed to increase one level of Soul Power after several months and you're proud to say that?"
Xie Xie immediately retorted, "Nonsense, for others, it takes at least half a year, and at most several years, to increase by one level. I only seem slow because I'm comparing myself to you monsters!"
Indeed, each of the Shrek Seven Monsters had exceptional talents that made Xie Xie seem somewhat ordinary!
Tang Wulin surrendered with a raise of his hand, "Alright, alright, I can't argue with you. Has the President woken up yet?"
Xie Xie put aside his playful demeanor, "He's awake, but for some reason, he looks very pale!"
"Do you know why?"
"No idea, but President Zhenhua said to find him after you leave the forging room!"
"Alright, I'll go see him right now!"
Xie Xie grabbed his arm, looking a bit embarrassed, "Wait… Wulin, could you please ask President Zhenhua if he could..."
"I didn't even finish talking," Tang Wulin firmly cut in with "No!"
"I haven't even finished yet!" Xie Xie clenched his teeth...
"Knowing you, you want to ask President Zhenhua to Heavenly Forge for you, right? Unfortunately, the last Heavenly Forging was already the final one!" Tang Wulin sneered...
The exposed Xie Xie immediately put on an impatient look, "Go on, get out of here. Hurry up and learn Heavenly Forging, then forge for me, your lordship!"
…
"Bang bang bang!"
"Is that you, Wulin? Come in!"
After getting permission, Tang Wulin entered the room...
At that moment, Zhen Hua was lying on the bed, looking like death, his face utterly devoid of color...
But if one sensed with Soul Power, they would discover his condition was actually not that bad!
Tang Wulin couldn't help frowning, "President, are you alright?"
Zhen Hua shook his head, "I'm fine. Did you watch the video I sent you?"
"I've watched it and even tried it out myself..." Tang Wulin replied truthfully.
A faint smile squeezed from Zhen Hua's pale face, "You failed, didn't you?"
Taking a deep breath, Tang Wulin admitted, "Yes, the difficulty of Heavenly Forging far exceeded my imagination. Even after watching the video countless times, there are many aspects I don't understand!"
Zhen Hua heaved a sigh, "That's normal. If Heavenly Forging were easy, I wouldn't be the only Divine Craftsman on the Continent!"
Being the only Divine Craftsman in the Soul Land wasn't something to be proud of!
Scratching his head, Tang Wulin said, "President Zhenhua, it seems you predicted I would fail."
His tone changed immediately, "I was going to ask you for guidance, but now, you should focus on recuperating first."
Zhen Hua just stared at Tang Wulin for a few seconds, "The truth is... my coma wasn't caused by an overexertion of spiritual power!"
"Then what was it?" Tang Wulin tried to inquire.
"Mu Ye has fallen, died at the stronghold of the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Master!"
A single sentence seemed to explain everything!
Tang Wulin's pupils constricted, his mouth quivered a few times, and he eked out a few words, "President, please accept my condolences!"
"I am not grieving; I regret!"
"If Mu Ye had come to me back then, and I wasn't Heavenly Forging, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way!"
Tang Wulin immediately understood that the President was blaming himself for Mu Ye's death...
His tone unconsciously softened a few notches, "President, it's not your fault. After all, given Elder Mu Ye's character, once he decided on something, he would not change his mind!"
"You could stop him once, but not the second time!"
At this point, the corners of Zhen Hua's eyes had reddened...
Clearly, the death of his close friend Mu Ye was a huge blow to him!
He wiped the corners of his eyes, "Perhaps so, but this will forever be a regret in my life!"
Then he paused for a bit, "Enough of that, what exactly have you grasped about Heavenly Forging?"
