Xie Xie frowned and said, "It's not that... I feel like if Xing Lan used this thing, she might lose her life! This is no small matter!!"
Yuanen Yehui spoke solemnly, "About that... I've heard the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion say that there is a certain death rate during the military training here!"
Xu Lizhi's cheeks showed a hint of terror, "Death... death rate? Does that mean people have died here before?"
Wu Siduo took a deep breath, "If that's the case, then could it be possible for us... to also be in danger..."
Judging from the "military training methods" of that Nightmare Old Demon just now, it's not impossible for deaths to occur!
Seeing that everyone's mood was a bit off, Tang Wulin changed the subject, "Don't worry so much, everyone. Maybe the elders are just trying to scare us, simply wanting us to take this military training seriously!"
At the same time, the mysteriously appearing Nightmare Old Demon put his hand on his shoulder and suddenly said, "No, there isn't just a chance. Nearly one-fifth of the students who attend the military training of each session will die!"
Tang Wulin forced a smile and said, "Nightmare… Senior Nightmare, could you not appear so suddenly next time? It's a bit scary."
Luckily, he hadn't just spoken ill of the former; otherwise, who knows what sad things might happen!
Moreover, since the former dared to say this, it most likely meant that not a single group had ever come for military training and all survived!
The Nightmare Old Demon just gave him a deep look and said again, "Since you've come here for military training, you'd better be prepared for death or the death of your companions!"
The kid in front of him had prevented him from using the carefully prepared potion, and needed to be dealt with properly!
Xie Xie coughed and asked, "Senior Nightmare, may I ask you a question?"
According to what Tang Wulin said earlier, there shouldn't be just this Nightmare Old Demon on Demon Island; it was very likely that there were other 'devils' as well!
The Nightmare Old Demon replied in an icy tone, "I'm not in a good mood right now and don't want to answer you, or rather, you don't have the strength to make me want to answer!"
Xie Xie immediately deflated...
Then, the Nightmare Old Demon 'hmphed' and once again disappeared...
Only then did Tang Wulin and Xie Xie let out a sigh of relief...
The latter complained uneasily, "Every time he appears, it's like a ghost; he doesn't answer any questions, and it's hard to imagine living here for a year or two!"
Tang Wulin sighed, "Let's not talk about that. We agreed to come here for military training, didn't we? If it really can greatly improve our strength, then this attitude is also acceptable!"
On the side, Yue Zhengyu, seeing Ye Xinglan's face already contorted, reprimanded, "I say, Wulin, Xie Xie, Xiao Yan is about to give up, what are you still talking about!"
Both of them then snapped back to attention, turning their gaze to Ye Xinglan, who was screaming in agony on the ground...
Tang Wulin shook his head, tossing all thoughts from his mind, "No choice, if we continue like this, Xing Lan might collapse. Xiao Yan, spread the pain among everyone!"
Since they couldn't help Ye Xinglan alleviate the pain through contact, they had no choice but to do this!
They couldn't just watch her faint from the pain...
"Okay!"
No one had any objections to this!
Xu Xiaoyan then released her Fourth Soul Skill, Star Chain!
As the silver chains shot out, the pain was once again shared among all the people present...
Xie Xie took a sharp breath, "Hiss... even after being shared among so many of us, it's still so painful. Xing Lan is really not having it easy!"
Xu Lizhi nodded and said, "Uh-huh, if it were me, I probably couldn't last even a minute!"
Yue Zhengyu lamented, "We should have used it sooner, so Xing Lan wouldn't have to suffer so much!"
Yuanen Yehui calmly said, "No way around it, the intense pain was initially just numbing, and it started to hurt after an hour! Sigh"
As for Ye Xinglan, she finally recovered from the agony and gratefully said, "Thank you, everyone!"
Tang Wulin smiled slightly, "Xinglan, no need to thank me, we are all companions, it's only natural!"
...
Divine Realm!
Upon his return to the God Position, Xu Sheng's first sight was of Qian Renxue, who was meditating with her eyes closed…
As if millennia were but moments, her angelic visage bore no signs of aging, and her divinity even added a unique allure!
Qian Renxue seemed to sense the familiar presence and opened her amber-like eyes…
She spoke in a gentle tone, "Xu Sheng, you're back."
Xu Sheng slowly walked to her side and tenderly stroked her smooth hair, softly saying, "Yes! How have you been during this time?"
Qian Renxue playfully blinked, "Pretty good, just a bit bored staying in the Divine Realm all the time!"
After a pause, she asked in return, "What about you? Tell me about the situation in the Lower Realm!"
As a Creator God, Xu Sheng could disregard the laws of the Divine Realm and descend to the Lower Realm, but she was a First-Level God and didn't have this privilege!
After pondering for a moment, Xu Sheng recounted, "The Lower Realm? Besides protecting Tang San's child, I've been teaching at Shrek Academy! Oh right, I also met a child who has the Holy Angel Martial Soul like you!"
"The talent is there, and there's a possibility of obtaining godhood in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was surprised, "A child with an Angel's Martial Soul? Does that mean the Angel Family hasn't been wiped out?"
She was naturally thrilled by this news!
She had always thought that upon her ascension to the Divine Realm, the Holy Angel Martial Soul no longer existed, but it seemed she was mistaken!
Xu Sheng confirmed, "Yes, the Angel Family is now one of the top families in the Lower Realm, so you can let go of your worries!"
Leaning on Xu Sheng's shoulder, Qian Renxue murmured, "Hmm…"
However, something else seemed to cross her mind, and she asked dubiously, "Wait...you haven't been fooling around with other women in the Lower Realm, have you?"
Due to a rift in space and time, Xu Sheng had already gained the affection of numerous women the last time...
He even had children…
Unflustered, Xu Sheng replied, "No, you alone are enough for me!"
Qian Renxue closed her eyes, content, "I hope that's the case. Otherwise, I would be angry, you know!"
She wasn't joking; if Xu Sheng truly had entangled with other women in the Lower Realm, she wouldn't hesitate to defy the laws of the Divine Realm just to eliminate them!
Just as the atmosphere settled into tranquility, a voice reached Xu Sheng's ears, "Uh, Brother Sheng, I have something to discuss with you!"
This made him frown slightly, "If it's something important, why didn't you say it earlier?"
Tang San's slightly aggrieved voice rang out again, "The other Divine Kings were still there, weren't they? So... please!"
Xu Sheng responded with resignation, "Understood, I'll be right there!"
Then, turning to Qian Renxue, he said, "Ren Xue, Xiaosan needs me for something, I'll be back soon!"
This kid, if it wasn't something significant, he'd better be ready to face my wrath!
Qian Renxue understood and let go, "Alright, go ahead!"
