The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Di Tian once again spoke to break the stalemate, "Since everyone is here, let's go inside and sit down."

This woman only possesses the strength of a Soul Douluo, so she can't be from the Upper Realm, hence, I have to be cautious with my words!

Xu Sheng glanced at Shen Yi, "Let's go, Shen Yi! Let's go in and take a look."

Shen Yi nodded, "Mm!"

Exactly, she also wanted to see what was so special about this legion that had grown to such formidable strength in just a few months!

Following that, the two followed Di Tian into the interior of the legion...

The members of the legion outside, seeing this, gathered and began to discuss, "Who are these two people? Why does our leader seem somewhat wary of them?"

"Wary? Impossible, they're probably just friends he knows, but that woman's strength is truly frightening, probably not much younger than me and yet has reached the Soul Douluo level!"

"Hmph, they better not cause trouble in the legion, otherwise, I will definitely not let things slide!"

"Give it a rest, you couldn't even withstand that pressure just now, you still think about causing trouble for them?"

"Exactly, exactly, a Soul Douluo level powerhouse is not someone we can afford to provoke, and besides, they are friends of the leader?"

However, one of them furrowed his brows with confusion, "But did you guys feel something just now? It seemed like several powerful auras disappeared from our legion!"

"I felt it too, it must have been the other lords, after all, they are all of the Super Douluo level strength!"

...

After Di Tian took a seat first, he said, "Sit!"

Xu Sheng and Shen Yi unceremoniously took their seats as well...

Then, Di Tian's golden eyes fixed on the former, inquiring, "Have you come this time to discuss something with her?"

Xu Sheng denied, "No, just purely to take a look. It's a surprise to see her here as well!"

Because as of yesterday, Gu Yue had returned and rested in the Shrek Academy dormitory!

Only then did Di Tian show the expression of finally understanding, "I see."

It seems that my previous decision was right, to let Bi Ji and the others take the master away earlier!

Meanwhile, Shen Yi, looking at Di Tian and then at Xu Sheng, couldn't help but interject, "Xu Sheng, this senior, who is the 'she' you refer to?"

Although it was somewhat impolite to interject, if she did not ask, she was completely in the dark and couldn't understand anything!

Xu Sheng explained with a smile, "She is a member of this legion."

That should also be correct, right?

Di Tian also nonchalantly nodded...

Hearing this, Shen Yi tapped the side, "Oh, I see. Then Xu Sheng, is she... a man or a woman?"

Xu Sheng said with interest, "A woman."

Could it be that Shen Yi is jealous?

The pupils of Shen Yi tightened, and she blurted out in disbelief, "A woman??"

Could it be the person Xu Sheng is fond of?

No, she would never allow that situation to happen!

But realizing her outburst, her face flushed red as she stood up hesitantly, "Um... Xu Sheng, senior, you two chat. I'll take a walk outside, I won't disturb you!"

Having said that, she quickly left the room...

Di Tian looked at her retreating figure with curiosity, asking, "Who is this?"

Xu Sheng casually replied, "A teacher from Shrek Academy!"

Di Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, his expression solemn, "The master has already left, and she won't be back anytime soon!"

Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes, "Calling all the ferocious beasts to accompany us, has something happened?"

Di Tian took a deep breath and divulged everything that had occurred...

As for why he didn't keep it a secret, it was meaningless; the man in front of him could effortlessly discover his thoughts without God or ghost noticing!

Xu Sheng rested his hand on his chin, "The Dragon Tomb, huh?"

He could probably understand why Gu Yue was in such a hurry now, for the items inside the Dragon Tomb were only second in importance to her life, as she was the Silver Dragon King!

Xu Sheng changed the subject, "By the way, Di Tian, your legion has always been secretly supported by the War God Hall, hasn't it?"

Di Tian paused, then affirmed, "Correct, the War God Hall has provided us with substantial support in terms of soul tools! Likewise... there have been agents planted within our ranks."

From the beginning, he knew that working with the War God Hall would undoubtedly lead to surveillance!

However, there was no other choice; the legion couldn't develop without the resources and reputation of the War God Hall!

Xu Sheng smirked slightly, "Then why not try to form an alliance with Shrek Academy?"

Di Tian sighed, "Shrek Academy? I've brought it up before, but it was rejected by the master!!"

Of course, it was likely because she feared exposing her own identity...

...

Elsewhere, several hundred-meter-long ferocious beasts soaring through the sky began to descend slowly, and one after another, they transformed into human forms, landing steadily on the ground...

This place was none other than the vicinity of the Dragon Tomb!

One of the ferocious beasts guarding the area stepped forward, respectfully approaching Gu Yue, "Master!"

Gu Yue nodded slightly, inquiring, "Hmm, has anyone entered the Dragon Tomb during your watch?"

The ferocious beast replied with certainty, "Some Soul Masters attempted to sneak in not long ago, but I have chased them away! No one has entered the Dragon Tomb through this place!"

The heavy stone in Gu Yue's heart finally fell, and with a breath of relief, she said, "Very good!"

A ferocious beast beside her asked, "Master, shall we start tearing apart the barrier to enter now?"

No sooner had the words left its mouth than another ferocious beast rebuked, "Fool, with our strength, we can maintain the ripped space at most for a day, and it might not even last until the master returns before closing!"

"Tearing apart space requires the boss to be present!"

Bi Ji also chimed in, "Exactly, if Di Tian were here, the stability and duration of the space crack would be much stronger! Master, I recommend we wait for Di Tian to arrive before entering the Dragon Tomb."

However, Gu Yue shook her head, "No... we'll see when the time comes. First, all of you combine your strength to tear open a space crack, I'll just take a brief look inside!"

Upon hearing this, the ferocious beasts exchanged glances, but none dared to refute her...

Bi Ji stepped forward and said gravely, "Master, please retreat to avoid being affected!"

Tearing a space crack was no joking matter; if an accident occurred, one could be drawn in and potentially lost forever...

Knowing the dangers, Gu Yue didn't insist and retreated a distance back...

Then, Bi Ji turned to the other ferocious beasts and ordered sharply, "Everyone, take action."

As her command was given, each ferocious beast unleashed a terrifying force from within, merging it into a unified assault that surged towards the Dragon Tomb...

But just as it made contact, the surface of the Dragon Tomb emitted ripples, as if resisting their force...

...
