Rejected Tang Wulin's face dimmed...
But he still couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Mang Tian, can you tell me what level of strength I need to achieve to qualify to know about my parents' whereabouts?"
Seeing this, Mang Tian showed a troubled look and did not give a specific answer...
Mu Chen next to him spoke up to console, "Little Wulin, Mang Tian must be thinking of your best interest by not telling you!"
Although unclear about what happened, the reason behind Tang Wulin's parents' disappearance must be complicated!
Tears reddened the corners of Tang Wulin's eyes, and he clenched his teeth, "I understand... It's just, after so long without any news from them, I..."
Mu Xi, next to him, showed a sympathetic expression, wrapped her arm around his neck, and whispered softly, "Don't worry, Wulin, your parents will be fine."
After a pause, she spoke again, "Also, today is a rare gathering, let's not make it so sentimental!"
Mu Chen nodded, "Mu Xi is right, let's eat, I think Wulin's friends are also waiting for him!"
Mang Tian also consoled, "Wulin, although I can't tell you their whereabouts, I can assure you that they are not in danger!"
Tang Wulin finally snapped out of his melancholy, wiped the corners of his eyes, and forced a smile, "Okay!"
Even though the answer was vague, knowing his parents were safe was enough!
...
Afterward, having grabbed a quick bite, Tang Wulin immediately rushed to the auction and found where Gu Yue and the others were seated...
After sitting down, he apologized with a hint of regret, "Sorry, everyone, I discussed some matters with the teachers and arrived a bit late!"
Ye Xinglan smiled, "It's okay, it's still early! We have plenty of time to enjoy!"
Xu Xiaoyan muttered, "Yeah, although watching the auction has been a bit visually tiring!"
Xie Xie raised an eyebrow, "Wulin, are you prepared for when you arrived? Gu Yue bought an auction item for six hundred thousand! Be careful not to be squeezed dry."
He paused, then added, "But you're really easy to talk to, agreeing without hesitation. I'll come to you next time I need to borrow money!"
Tang Wulin chuckled lightly, "It's okay, just six hundred thousand. Once I forge and sell some Battle Armor later, I should be able to make quite a bit!"
That's the perk of becoming a Forging Master, never worrying about money!
Xu Xiaoyan, hearing this, expressed envy, "Xie Xie, that's what you call pampering your wife. Do you think everyone is as stingy as you?"
Ye Xinglan unexpectedly "Hm!"'d at that!
This statement seemed to have struck a blow at Xie Xie's pride, he retorted angrily, "What do you mean by that? If I had the money, I would definitely be more generous than Wulin!"
Xu Lizhi, who wasn't paying much attention, instinctively said, "Ah? I support Sister Xinglan!"
Xie Xie rolled his eyes, "Oh shut it!"
Xu Lizhi is totally Xing Lan's little fanboy!
I must be out of my mind to ask him!
Wu Siduo, who had been observing quietly, showed a puzzled look and asked seriously, "So, Wulin and Gu Yue are already a couple?"
She had been in the team for so long and had no idea!
Tang Wulin, his face blushing, quickly waved his hands, "Wu Siduo, don't listen to their nonsense... Gu Yue and I are not in that kind of relationship!"
Wu Siduo thoughtfully nodded, "I see, it sure seemed like you were a couple."
Gu Yue, seeing his quick denial, flashed a glimmer of displeasure in her beautiful eyes...
After casually chatting with everyone for a bit, Tang Wulin then turned to Gu Yue curiously, "By the way, Gu Yue, what did you buy for six hundred thousand at the auction?"
Hearing this sentence, Gu Yue's expression suddenly became tense as she hesitated, "Can I not say it? This is my secret!"
She could sense the dragon soul within that piece of broken stone, and Tang Wulin, who also possessed the bloodline of the Dragon God, might be able to feel it too!
To avoid exposing her identity, she could only hide it!
...
Xingluo Empire, within its territory!
Surrounded by countless troops and Soul Masters of the Xingluo Empire, the Dark Blood Devil, whose eyes were flickering with ferocity, glanced around...
With a sinister tone, he said, "Did you really send so many people again to become my sacrifices? Well, I won't be polite then!"
Hearing this, the leading army captain coldly shouted, "Dark Blood Devil, you've killed so many of our Xingluo Empire's residents, it's time to pay the price!"
The Dark Blood Devil found this somewhat amusing, "Heh, pay the price? Do you have the strength for that?"
For him, a Limit Douluo, no matter how many ordinary soldiers and Soul Masters were sent, unless they were of the Hyper Douluo soul power rank!
It was almost a one-sided slaughter!
Realizing that he and his people were being underestimated, the captain's expression turned cold, "Don't think just because you're a Limit Douluo that you can do whatever you want. Everyone, take out your aggressive soul weapons, and kill this extremely evil person!"
The next second, the Soul Masters and soldiers behind him all took out their aggressive soul tools, aiming their muzzles at the Dark Blood Devil...
With a command of "Start attacking!"
A dense barrage of cannonballs flew through the air, pouring down towards the Dark Blood Devil, completely sealing off his retreat...
Seeing the cannonballs getting closer, the Dark Blood Devil disdainfully said, "Heh, insignificant skill!"
Immediately after, the sixth soul ring under his feet lit up...
"Sixth Soul Skill, Blood Devil..."
But before he could release it, an old voice echoed in his mind, "Sixth Soul Skill, Spatial Restriction!"
Visibly, soul power fluctuations occurred in the body of the Dark Blood Devil, disrupting his about-to-be-launched soul skill...
The Dark Blood Devil's pupils suddenly contracted, "Not good!"
But it was too late to escape, only hearing the "boom" of explosions, the whole space vibrated...
A pitch-black smoke enveloped everything ahead...
Seeing this, the leading captain turned to the elder who had appeared beside him at some unknown time and bowed his fist, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for making a move so we could kill the Dark Blood Devil!"
The elder slightly nodded, his turbid eyes showing a bit of wariness, "However... he's not dead yet!"
The soul tools used by these Soul Masters and soldiers were only intermediate level, at most causing injury to the Dark Blood Devil, but killing him was like a fool's dream!
Sure enough, as the pitch-black smoke slowly dispersed...
They saw the ragged Dark Blood Devil, his eyes glaring with crimson fury, and his withered body revealing ghastly White Bones...
After wiping the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth, he coldly said, "It seems there are Limit Douluo-level powerhouses here after all. It seems our Holy Spirit Cult's intelligence was wrong!"
It was because they had detected that the royal household of Xingluo Continent didn't have any Limit Douluo-level powerhouses that the Holy Spirit Cult dared to launch the attack!
But now, it seems these powerhouses had been hidden too deep!
