บท 2579: Chapter 2514: Deviation_1

Tang Yinmeng's pupils shrank, "If the Abyssal Emperor killed Elder Xu in the past, doesn't that mean..."

Lan Muzi nodded, "Exactly, the consequences could even affect the future!"

"So, even if we were to slay all the abyssal creatures, they might still reappear!"

This was his greatest concern!

Cai Yue'er seemed to think of something and looked toward Tang Wulin, who was deep in thought, "Wulin, can you contact the Sea God now?"

Although they were not clear about the relationship between Tang Wulin and the Sea God, the fact that he had come down to the Lower Realm to save him meant that they were at least not enemies!

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin's eyes turned noticeably somber, then he silently shook his head...

"After the Sea God was slain by the Abyssal Emperor, I've been unable to contact him, and I fear... there's a high chance he has already perished!"

After Elder Xu and the Abyssal Emperor were pulled into the black hole, he had always tried to communicate with the Sea God through the divine pattern on his forehead!

But each time, there was no response!

It was as if he had vanished from this world...

Gu Yuena, standing by, softly consoled him, "Wulin, don't be too nervous. The Sea God is a deity after all, not so easily killed!"

Of course, in her heart, she also did not believe that the Sea God could have survived against the terrifying divine weapon, the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Javelin!

Unless, what was sent to the Lower Realm was just a shadowy projection of him!

Tang Wulin forced a smile, "I understand, Gu Yue; besides, leave this matter to us. You must be eager to return to the Spirit Pagoda by now."

After all, that place was where her efforts lay, so she would certainly not give up!

Gu Yuena opened her mouth to speak, but in the end, she agreed...

"I understand. Then take care, and I will return to the Spirit Pagoda now!"

"Mhm!"

After getting a response, she looked toward Di Tian, not far away, with a solemn expression, "Di Tian!"

Di Tian immediately responded, "My liege!"

The rest of the ferocious beasts also turned their gaze toward her!

Now that her true identity had been exposed, there was no need to continue addressing each other in human terms!

Gu Yuena commanded, "Organize the Spirit Pagoda members within the defense line and return to the Spirit Pagoda immediately!"

Di Tian glanced at the members of Sea God's Pavilion and echoed, "Yes, my liege!"

With that, he decisively led the other ferocious beasts away swiftly, while Gu Yuena naturally did not look back as she followed...

After they left, Tang Yinmeng voiced her suspicion, "Gu Yue, is she really a soul beast? It seems that she holds an extremely high position in the eyes of Di Tian and the other ferocious beasts!"

Lan Muzi articulated, "There's no mistake. Just now, Di Tian addressed Gu Yue as 'my liege,' which is not something a human would normally say!"

Cai Yue'er couldn't help but add, "Yes, in fact, Elder Long had this suspicion a long time ago, but today, it has been confirmed!"

Yuan En Zhentian was extremely puzzled, "If we are sure that Gu Yuena is a soul beast, then why is she able to use a Soul Fusion Skill with Wulin?"

"Could it be that he is a soul beast too?"

Cai Yue'er narrowed her eyes and cautioned, "Elder Yuan'en, there's no basis for such a statement. It would be best to refrain from saying that in the future!"

Seeing this, Yuan En Zhentian, with a hint of apology, said, "Sorry, Wulin, I'm just very curious about this issue. I didn't mean to target you!"

Tang Wulin did not get angry but replied casually, "No worries. Besides, Elder Yuan'en, you aren't wrong."

It was just a suspicion, and he wasn't so petty as to be upset over it!

Elder Ya'li sighed and couldn't help but speak, "Wulin..."

Before she could finish, Tang Wulin interjected, "Elder Ya'li, are you worried that I would shield Gu Yue because of my feelings?"

Elder Ya'li shook her head, "No, Wulin, I just want to remind you that although your relationship with Gu Yuena is not shallow, please also remember that you are the Pavilion Master of the Sea God's Pavilion!"

"Once she does something that endangers the Continent, you have the responsibility to stop her!"

Although it was unclear what Gu Yuena was planning, it was definitely not as simple as imagined!

Tang Wulin's gaze became resolute, "Don't worry, Elder Ya'li, if Gu Yue really poses a threat to the Continent, I will stop her myself!"

...

Several days passed, and Suyun Tao had arrived at Holy Soul Village, and he was awakening the Martial Souls of the children who had reached the age of six...

This naturally included Tang San and Xu Sheng!

The former, needless to say, awakened the Blue Silver Grass and Hao Tian Hammer Martial Souls!

As for the latter!

At this moment, he was staring at the newly awakened Nine-Hearted Begonia in his hand with an incredibly nostalgic look, its crimson color deep as blood...

Below his feet, nine dazzling Soul Rings flickered sharply...

He couldn't help but murmur, "Nine-Hearted Begonia, I never thought I would see you again!"

Since his arrival in this world, everything that had happened was exactly the same as the past!

Upon awakening, his soul power rank had reached Titled Douluo, and furthermore, he possessed the two God Level Martial Souls, Nine-Hearted Begonia and Ice Rose Sword!

Also watching this scene was Suyun Tao, who, trembling, looked at the former with a face full of horror, "Xu... Xu Sheng, you... you actually have innate Level Ninety Spirit Power, how... how is this possible!"

In his entire life, he had never seen a Titled Douluo, let alone expected to encounter one on the day of Martial Soul Awakening!

And the other party was just a child who had turned six!

Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng glanced at him and said indifferently, "Shh, be quiet!"

Although he did not exert any oppressive force, he choked Suyun Tao's throat, making him unable to utter a word...

Xu Sheng took a deep breath, and only then did he slowly retract his Martial Soul, the immense pressure vanishing into thin air...

He then said, "Alright, speak if you have something to say!"

Suyun Tao then mustered the courage, bowed his body, and placed his right hand on his chest, stammering, "Xu... Xu... Your Excellency, your situation is indeed once in a thousand years. I wonder if you are interested in joining the Martial Soul Hall?"

If he could bring this child to Martial Soul Hall, not only would the child gain sufficient resources for cultivation, but he himself would also receive a great reward!

Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes, pondering, "Hmm? Suyun Tao's words and actions seem to have a subtle deviation from the past? Perhaps it's because of my different mindset now!"

However, he could guess that if he agreed to Suyun Tao's request, he would be sent to Martial Soul City immediately, and then take Bi Bidong as his teacher!

As for what followed, things would likely proceed as they had in the past!

All this seemed very promising!

But having finally returned to the past, did he really want to repeat history?

He couldn't help but hesitate!

Thinking this, he said to Suyun Tao, "Sorry, I am still struggling to decide right now. Can you give me a few days to think it over?"

"If possible, I hope you can keep this matter confidential!"

Suyun Tao replied with joy, "No problem, everything that happened during the awakening, I will keep confidential until you give your answer!"

Although the child's behavior was unusual, in his eyes, it was no different from an agreement!
