Guan Yue remained silent, as if pondering something…
And seeing the other party's attitude wavering, Tang Wulin continued, "Isn't the existence of the federation also for the peace of this world?"
"So fundamentally, the federation and the Spirit Pagoda have the same goal; there's absolutely no reason for them to be enemies!"
These words seemed to touch Guan Yue's heart…
His mindset became extraordinarily calm…
"Hall Master Tang... no, Wulin, can I choose to trust you?"
It appeared that the former had not been manipulated; those words just now were the other party's true feelings!
Tang Wulin faced the other's gaze without fear, "Of course!"
Guan Yue closed his eyes and then reopened them…
"Alright, since you have this confidence, let's consider that just my personal understanding; let's sit down and talk again!"
Having said that, he took the lead and sat down…
Because he also realized that his earlier actions were a bit too impulsive…
Tang Wulin also nodded and returned to his previous position…
Guan Yue then continued, "Then, Wulin, since you said that Gu Yuena's goal is for this world, I'm willing to believe that too."
"But as of now, she seems to be brimming with hostility towards the federation!"
"Even if the goals are the same, I fear it might evolve into something else."
Tang Wulin nodded in agreement, "Yes, I'm aware of that, so I will also do my utmost to communicate with Gu Yue!"
Guan Yue was slightly surprised, "So you're saying, you've already been to the Spirit Pagoda?"
If Gu Yuena's side could be communicated with by the former, to dissolve her hostility towards the federation, that could indeed enable the Spirit Pagoda and the federation to let bygones be bygones!
Tang Wulin scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, "Gu Yue refuses to even meet me!"
"However, I believe that as long as we can sit down to talk, Gu Yue won't continue to act alone obstinately!"
This response was beyond Guan Yue's expectations, "This…"
If even the former couldn't communicate with Gu Yuena, then wasn't it that even if he was willing to reconcile, it'd be just wishful thinking?
Seeming to sense the former's concern, Tang Wulin hurriedly said, "Hall Master Guan, I can guarantee that Gu Yue can be persuaded!"
No matter what, he first had to persuade the current Guan Yue!
As for Gu Yue, he'd have to find a way later!
Guan Yue narrowed his eyes, skeptical, "You're not planning to just butter me up first and then persuade Gu Yue, are you?"
With his plan uncovered, Tang Wulin naturally couldn't admit it outright; he immediately denied it, "How... how could that be, Hall Master Guan? You are so wise, I couldn't possibly fool you, it's just a matter of discussing the facts."
Guan Yue just coldly "hmphed", "I don't want to know what you're really thinking, but as long as you can persuade Gu Yue, then the federation can accept a reconciliation!"
"Of course, if you can't persuade her, the federation and the Spirit Pagoda will still remain enemies. When that time comes, I hope Shrek Academy, if not helping, won't obstruct the federation!"
At the moment, it was still unknown whether Gu Yuena would agree!
So he could only judge according to the situation…
Tang Wulin's face lit up with joy as he eagerly agreed, "No problem, but please give me some time, Hall Master Guan. I can definitely persuade Gu Yue!"
Guan Yue also readily agreed, "Fine, then let's set a deadline of one month."
"By then, if you haven't persuaded Gu Yuena, then…"
Tang Wulin nodded, "Hall Master Guan, I understand. I won't talk about reconciliation then!"
It seems I must visit the Spirit Pagoda again tomorrow!
Even if Gu Yue is unwilling to see me, I will force my way in!
Guan Yue waved her hand, changing the subject, "Well then, let's consider the official business concluded."
"Let's talk about something else, I've been wanting to ask for a while," she said.
Tang Wulin couldn't rightly refuse. "Hall Master Guan, please ask. I will answer anything I know!"
Guan Yue's gaze sharpened as she questioned, "That Teacher Xu from your Shrek Academy, if I'm not mistaken, he should be one of the gods, right?"
Tang Wulin's pupils suddenly tightened, his heart becoming extra cautious…
"Hall Master Guan, why do you ask these questions?"
There was no change in Guan Yue's demeanor. "No need to be nervous, I'm just a bit curious, after all, he sacrificed himself along with the Abyssal Emperor, becoming a savior for us all!"
Tang Wulin frowned, emphasizing, "Hall Master Guan, Teacher Xu did not perish along with the Abyssal Emperor!"
"He was sucked into a black hole created by the attack!"
Guan Yue showed a look of sudden realization, "I see, I thought that the Abyssal Emperor, even with the power of this world to break through to Divine King, should not really be on par with a true god."
"It seems there was just some unexpected event."
At this moment, cold sweat broke out on Tang Wulin's forehead…
Hall Master Guan, are you serious with this statement?
The Abyssal Emperor had indeed broken through to Divine King in the end, and even his own father, Sea God Tang San, couldn't contend with him!
The most crucial point is that Teacher Xu is not just an ordinary deity from the Divine Realm!
He is the supreme Divine King!
Of course, there is no need to reveal such matters!
With this thought in mind, his expression became resolute, "Hall Master Guan, I believe Teacher Xu has already returned to the Divine Realm, and the Abyssal Emperor has been slain by him!"
Guan Yue expressed understanding, "I see. Then, Wulin, your father... no, Sea God Tang San, how does he view the Lower Realm?"
Tang Wulin shook his head, "I... I'm not quite sure about my father's thoughts, but it seems that the Divine Realm can't interfere with matters in the Lower Realm at will!"
Guan Yue wouldn't let the topic drop so easily, persisting with her questioning, "But now, the Ghost Emperor has broken through to God Rank, even transforming all Soul Masters in the Douling Empire into evil Soul Masters. Logically, this should be punished by the Divine Realm, right?"
If a God does evil in the Lower Realm, then the Divine Realm should also send deities to deal with it, not just stand by idly!
Tang Wulin seemed a bit embarrassed to hear this, "That... Hall Master Guan, please forgive my overconfidence, but I still think it's important for you to hear my thoughts!"
"The Divine Realm isn't ignoring the Ghost Emperor who has broken through to God Rank; instead, my father wants to entrust this matter to me!"
He had expected Guan Yue to be shocked, but instead, she was unsurprised and continued along the topic...
"I see. Entrusting the Ghost Emperor to you to handle? It appears the Sea God has a lot of trust in you."
Moreover, he had heard that the former had already achieved godhood, and breakthrough was just a matter of time!
Not wanting her to harbor this assumption, Tang Wulin quickly added, "Hall Master Guan, as I just said, this is merely my own thought, and it doesn't necessarily reflect the truth!"
"Perhaps the Divine Realm truly has no intention to help. In the end, the eradication of evil Soul Masters is something we humans must accomplish ourselves!"
