The Legend of the Dragon King - Chapter 734

Chapter 734

Xu Lizhi rolled his eyes . "Nonsense, my eyes are only on Yuanen Yehui and Xu Xiaoyan . I'm thinking who I should profess to . "

"You have a death wish, don't you?" Yue Zhengyu and Xie Xie replied in unison again .

Xu Lizhi looked at the two of them and broke into laughter . "You two are looking more and more like a couple with each passing day . I'll be off then . " After he finished, he squeezed out of the door and immediately took off . He ran so quickly that he seemed to be flying .

Xie Xie and Yue Zhengyu exchanged looks . Yue Zhengyu suddenly leaped backward and said to Xie Xie in all seriousness, "Keep your distance! Let's keep our distance from now on . "

"It's you who should be far away from me . "

The news of Dai Yun'er and Long Yue coming to Shrek Academy as Inner Court disciples spread like wildfire . The information spread throughout the entire Inner Court in no time .

Although the others knew nothing about them, this generation of the Shrek's Seven Monsters was too familiar with them .

Long Yue's invincibility was deeply ingrained in their hearts . If it were not for Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, with their Earth Element Imprisonment and bloodline suppression, along with the final Divine Dragon Transformation, they could not possibly have defeated such a powerful opponent .

After the competition, even Wu Zhangkong said that he was not sure if they could defeat Long Yue if they had fought one-on-one .

Long Yue was regarded as a rare talent in Star Luo Empire, and was possibly one that had not appeared for a hundred years . It was apparent just how powerful he was .

"What did you say?" Xu Xiaoyan's scream could be clearly heard even if one were a few hundred meters away .

She was not the only one . Even the other members of Shrek's Seven Monsters were staring at the duo who stood before them with mouths agape .

Upon entering the Inner Court with the arrangements made by the academy's staff, they finally met Dai Yun'er and Long Yue who had come from afar . What they heard next was truly shocking .

"What we said is true," said Dai Yun'er seriously . "We've just received word that Tang Wulin is returning to Douluo Continent on a steamer provided by Tang Sect's headquarters in Star Luo City . There are risks during a journey by sea, but Tang Sect's steamers are one of the most reliable mode of transportation . That's why we rushed here as quickly as we could . Hasn't he returned?"

Upon receiving the information about Tang Wulin, the Shrek Seven Monsters, with the exception of Gu Yue who was calm and silent, were all in shock .

"He's not dead? Our captain's really not dead? He's alive even though the small world has collapsed?" Xie Xie squalled and pranced around . His expression was one of utmost excitement .

Yue Zhengyu also swung his arm forcefully .

Dai Yun'er's eyes flickered with a strange light . "I was also astonished . I'd thought that he was . . . Fortunately, he's still alive . I trust the information given by Tang Sect is accurate . We'll just have to wait for him to show up . "

Ye Xinglan could be regarded as one of the calmer ones . She looked at Dai Yun'er and asked, "Why're you looking for Tang Wulin?"

Dai Yun'er smiled graciously, "It's because I have something important, of course! He's my man . Since I have information about him, I need to see him for myself . "

"What did you say?" Everyone stared at Dai Yun'er with their mouths agape . What they heard shocked them even more than knowing that Tang Wulin was still alive .

Dai Yun'er could not help blushing . Acting coy, she said, "We were both fighters of Tang Sect's Battle Soul Hall and were assigned on a mission to explore the small world .  He was White Three, while I was White Seven . Through sheer coincidence, we were paired together . While sojourning in Dragon Valley, we had spent a few months together . When you spend that much time with someone, you're bound to have feelings for them . The rest just happened naturally . Following that, during one of our exploits, we were all of a sudden in grave danger . He sent me out ahead of himself to protect me . Later, we lost all contact with him . All these years, I've been searching for him as I've always believe that he'll be alright . "

"Not too long ago, I received some information on him . He's my fiancé, so it's only natural that I come to meet him . All of you are his best friends . When he shows up, you must tell him that I'm here . If he's willing to return to Star Luo Continent with me, he'll be the emperor's son-in-law . On the other hand, if he truly does not wish to come with me, then I'll stay here . I'm willing to be just a civilian as long as we're together . "

As they listened to Dai Yun'er's confession, their expressions turned incredulous . Everyone was subconsciously gazing at Gu Yue . However, to everyone's surprise, Gu Yue remained calm and did not show the slightest change in her expression .

"I thank the both of you for bringing the news regarding Tang Wulin, but he hasn't returned . We've also been waiting for him . If there's nothing else, let's adjourn this meeting," said Gu Yue drily . As soon as she gave her reply, she turned around and left .

Dai Yun'er had an air of triumph in her demeanor . She said with a smile, "I'll be waiting for him here . I believe that he'll be back at the academy once he returns . "

The others said nothing . The Shrek Seven Monsters followed Gu Yue out .

"Gu Yue, don't listen to her . When the princess was talking just now, there was something odd about her voice, She didn't sound like she was telling the truth . Besides, how old were they three years ago? Captain was only fifteen then, how could they end up being together just because they spent a few months together?" Ye Xinglan remarked softly .

Xie Xie said, "But, she's come all the way to our academy . If there's truly nothing, why would she be in such a hurry? No matter what, it's still great news that our captain is well! We'll let him handle this matter when he returns . "

The others nodded in agreement . Such matters were best left to the person concerned .

"How he's faring has nothing to do with me . " Gu Yue suddenly hastened her footsteps and left in a rush .

'Of all times, he has to return now . Just when I've finally decided to leave a few months later . Why are you returning at this point in time? You know it hasn't been easy for me to remain calm . But now, it's a mess all over again because of your return . Why did you come back? Why did you have to come back now?'

"What do we do?" The others all looked at each other .

"We'll have to wait until captain returns . It's best we let him attend to the relationship issues himself . " Yue Zhengyu shrugged . They definitely had no way of making the decision for Tang Wulin . In any case, they were in high spirits . Tang Wulin was fine, and he was coming back . What news could be better than this?

A few days later, at Shrek Academy's main gate .

When Tang Wulin alighted from the soul taxi and saw the tall gateway, he felt as though an entire generation had passed since he left .

He only knew how long he had stayed in the Dragon Valley . It was a full three years and four months!

He had accomplished the great feat of burying the remains of the Dragon Clan for a period of forty months . He was eighteen years old now turning nineteen .

'Everyone must've grown up by now . Since I've been away for so long, I wonder how much has changed within the academy?'

'My comrades, I've returned . Are you all still with the academy?'

'Na'er, I've returned, and I've made you worried . '

With all these feelings of turmoil within him, Tang Wulin took off toward Shrek City's gateway . Upon reaching the gateway, he unabashedly kissed the wall . The feeling of coming home warmed his heart immensely .

Everything seemed so familiar the moment he stepped into Shrek City . Tang Wulin eagerly went to the familiar noodle shop which Xu Lizhi had frequented with him before . Without hesitating, he ordered ten large bowls of noodles and gulped them down .

After he used the dragonball to leave the Dragon Valley, he discovered that the cabin on the cliff was empty . With no other options available, he found a way to get out of the forest by himself . After some time and much trouble, he eventually found a car that brought him back to Star Luo City .

When he reached Star Luo City, he requested help from Tang Sect . Fortunately, Tang Sect owned a commercial steamer that traveled between the two continents . He had also obtained information about the diplomatic corps from Tang Sect and found out they had returned to Douluo Continent more than two years ago .
