Xu Lizhi chuckled. Were all grown up! We look different from before. Plus, this is the Dove Factions turf.
Tang Wulin loosened his embrace and said with a grin, Lets go.
Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan did not draw much attention. Moreover, the people from the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult did not even know of their existence. Tang Wulin was only being as cautious as he could, but, truth be told, they were never on anybodys radar to begin with. In fact, not many people knew about him either.
He brought the two of them to where he had just been waiting. He looked at Xu Lizhi and then at Ye Xinglan. Tang Wulin could not hide the smile on his face even if he tried.
Captain, what about the others? Ye Xinglan was more comfortable calling Tang Wulin Captain.
Zhengyus here, but I dont know where he went. Otherwise, I wouldve brought him with me to meet you guys.
After finally meeting again after such a long time, the three of them had genuinely excited expressions on their faces.
Congratulations on becoming the final victor of the challenge, Ye Xinglan said with a faint smile. Her icy coldness would only disappear when she was with her companions.
Tang Wulin chuckled. That really had something to do with luck, especially during the mecha battle.
Ye Xinglan said, Youre really considering delving deeper into mechas?
Tang Wulin nodded. I still think that mechas are indispensable. Of course, battle armor is a type of mecha, but armor can never replace a mecha. Battle armor is powerful, but if we have both mecha and battle armor at the same time, our combat endurance and defensive powers will be greatly enhanced. Mechas are used externally, hence they have endless possibilities.
The current direction of technological research is in outer space. Its difficult for humans to live there with only armor. However, mechas are different. If a mecha is powerful enough, it can even fight in outer space. Thats why I think that we still have a need for mechas.
Ye Xinglan had a slight frown. But, if were focusing on both sides at the same time, wont we be unskilled in both?
Tang Wulin said with a slight smile, Therell be an impact for sure. But were not ordinary people. Were the Shrek Seven Monsters. Im sure well be fine as long as we get our priorities straight. Theres no rush in this. Since you guys have just returned, lets finish crafting the three-word battle armors first. As for the mechas, if we have enough time, Ill build one for everybody. Then, you guys can take your time to practice.
Alright. Ye Xinglan was dedicated to the sword, but she was not stubborn. When Tang Wulin mentioned outer space, she had truly been moved.
Tang Wulin looked at Xu Lizhi and said with a smile, Arent you looking forward to this? With a mecha, you can also fight in actual combat. Ill give the first mecha I make to you.
Hehe, Xu Lizhi chuckled and a triumphant look flashed across his face.
Tang Wulin had known Xu Lizhi for a very long time, so, naturally, he was extremely familiar with him. He had a thought. What? Dont tell me youve cultivated some actual combat ability.
Xu Lizhi nodded. Its basically completed. Ill try it on you later.
Alright! When he saw his confident look, Tang Wulin could not help but smile.
Xu Lizhi had abundant soul power. Due to his martial soul, he had always focused on his cultivation. In terms of understanding the Mysterious Heaven Method, he was definitely the best of the Shrek Seven Monsters.
The only thing Tang Wulin did not know was what other skills had he cultivated besides the Tang Sects Secret Techniques.
Beep beep! Beep beep! Tang Wulins soul communicator rang.
Zhengyu? Whereve you been?
Big brother, where are you?
Tang Wulin and Yue ZHengyu had seemingly spouted their questions at the same time in their soul communicator.
Im at the soul train station. Ive just picked Xinglan and Lizhi up. You? asked Tang Wulin.
Youre at the exit? Wait for me. With that Yue Zhengyu ended the call.
This fellow, where are his brains? He never says anything clearly. Tang Wulin laughed in spite of himself.
Ye Xinglan said with a slight grin, Is he still so irritable? Ive heard from Xiaoyan that hes been cultivating his ass off after being triggered by your performance.
Tang Wulin nodded. Hes very strong now, especially now that hes gained his Holy Angel Clans Holy Fusion Skill. Ive heard that not many in his line have successfully cultivated it. It has been unofficially decided that hell take over the Southern Army Corps. What about you? Hows your Swordsoul cultivation coming along?
Ever since Ye Xinglan lost to Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi, she had been carrying out secluded cultivation. Tang Wulin had his own share of errands, and he never got the time to ask her about this.
Im doing fine, said Ye Xinglan with a nod.
Smiling, Tang Wulin said, Do you still remember the Gale Saber Demon? Hes in Heaven Dou City as well.
When she heard the name Gale Saber Demon, a light flashed within Ye Xinglans beautiful eyes. She seemed to be filled with a sudden urge.
Hes here?
Mmmhmm, he came here with me. Since they were waiting for the others anyway, Tang Wulin recounted the time when Sima Jinchi and A Ruheng went to the Blood God Army to look for him. Xu Lizhi guffawed and Ye Xinglan could not help but grin.
The two outstanding individuals of the younger generation were almost shot to death in the Blood God Army. That was truly too funny.
Captain, if its not too much of a bother, Id like to fight Sima Jinchi again, Ye Xinglan said with all seriousness.
Well... Tang Wulin hesitated. If Sima Jinchi had not achieved his breakthrough, Tang Wulin would have never turned her down.
However, Sima Jinchi was currently at a Title Douluos rank. He had merged with the Dragon Clans power saber and his strength increased tremendously. He had even grasped at the Saber Gods powers. He was much more powerful than he was before.
Hes a Title Douluo now. And having achieved a breakthrough after being suppressed for so long, his strength has improved substantially. His powers exceed those of a Sabersoul already, Tang Wulin explained, telling her the facts of the matter.
However, he did not expect Ye Xinglan to react the way she did. After hearing his warnings, not only did Ye Xinglan not give up, her eyes beamed. Thats great! Thats exactly the kind of opponent I want to go up against. Captain, please arrange this for me.
Tang Wulin took a serious look looked at her. He nodded and said, Very well, then.
Sima Jinchi was also his companion now. They were also very much connected. He even called him Your Majesty. He believed that he would not hurt Ye Xinglan.
Haha, youre all here! came Yue Zhengyus excited voice from behind them.
You sure are fast, Tang Wulin said as he turned around. However, when he saw Yue Zhengyu, he was greatly surprised.
Captain! Like a swallow flying into his embrace, Xu Xiaoyan leaped into his arms and gave him a great hug.
Yes, Yue Zhengyu had disappeared because he came to the train station to pick Xu Xiaoyan up.
Xu Xiaoyan and Tang Wulin knew each other before she knew Yue Zhengyu. She, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue were the companions at Tang Wulins side for the longest.
Meeting Tang Wulin again after such a long time, how could she not be excited?
Tang Wulin patted Xu Xiaoyans back. His heart seemed to be warmed by a flush of hot water. Xiaoyan, Im glad that youre back.
Captain, well never leave each other again, alright? Xu Xiaoyan started sobbing.
Hey, hey. Your boyfriend is standing right here. Dont say such mushy stuff, okay? Yue Zhengyu appeared slightly jealous already. He was giving Tang Wulin a glare from the side, apparently afraid that they would engage in some intimate actions.
Xu Xiaoyans beautiful face blushed. She let go of Tang Wulin. She raised a foot and stomped Yue Zhengyus foot, continuing to grind it for a while. That was a great atmosphere, but you had to ruin it!
Yue Zhengyu looked gloomy, We met each other after being apart for such a long time. You only gave me a kiss, but you held onto him forever. Cant I be jealous of that?
Wh-who gave you a kiss? Xu Xiaoyans beautiful face reddened, but just then, she was pulled to the side by Ye Xinglan. The two sisters were literally jumping for joy after being reunited.
Lizhi, I think youre growing a little too much. Youre already past twenty, so how are you still getting bigger? Yue Zhengyu could not help but blurt this out when he looked at the fair and fat Xu Lizhi.
Xu Lizhi chuckled. I cant help it if I have good food. Eating is a part of cultivation for us food type tool soul masters. The army had also been giving me delicious food all the time, so this is what I ended up with...
The love he received in the army surpassed even Ye Xinglan. As the best food type tool soul master in the army, it was not exactly beneficial to be treated so well. After being fed with a plethora of delicious and nutritious food, he truly appeared to have gone through a second growth spurt.
Yue Zhengyu patted his stomach, Youre a Soul Saint as well, right? Im curious, what would you look like in your martial soul avatar? Can you try?
Xu Lizhi chuckled. You wont want to eat it. My martial soul avatar is slightly special.
Oh? Yue Zhengyu was not the only one. Even Tang Wulin could not help but feel shocked.
Xu Lizhi said with a smile, This is not a suitable place. Ill show you guys after we get back.
Okay. That leaves Xie Xie and Yuanen. Why arent they here yet? Theyre really slow, Yue Zhengyu was feeling slightly euphoric at the moment. Of the Shrek Seven Monsters, Yuanen Yehui and Xie Xie were the only ones left who had yet to arrive.
