What A Coincidence

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Sigh…” Tang Wulin let out a sigh. As a matter of fact, he was extremely willing to be Mu Ye’s disciple. Putting everything aside, Mu Yue’s cooking alone had already won Tang Wulin over. He was sure that his cultivation would improve by leaps and bounds if he continued having access to the good food made by Uncle Chef that often.

However, betraying the Tang Sect for the sake of food alone was ridiculous.

If only Tang Sect had a great chef like Uncle Ye…

As he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Tang Wulin walked out of the small canteen feeling a little helpless.

Chang Gongyan and Lin Yuhan were no longer there. Zhen Hua and Gu Yue were the only people left.

“Uncle-master.” Tang Wulin called out respectfully.

Zhen Hua smiled gently. “How was it? The talk with him.”

Tang Wulin said a little awkwardly, “I’m afraid I can’t promise Uncle Ye what he wanted so he left. I think he’s probably a little angry.”

Zhen Hua laughed out loud and replied, “Don’t worry, don’t worry. He’s hot-tempered like that. He’s already so old but he’s still behaving like a child! Ignore him, I’ll talk to him later. That being said, I’ve to thank the both of you today, Especially Gu Yue for saving my life!”

Gu Yue shook her head immediately. “No, Your Highness. I did that subconsciously.”

Zhen Hua smiled lightly and replied, “If it wasn’t for your subconscious rescue, I’m afraid I’d be badly injured even if I didn’t die. The sword was too sudden but your response speed was exceedingly fast.”

Feeling shy, Gu Yue held her head down.

Zhen Hua then looked at Tang Wulin and said, “Your performance today wasn’t bad either. I didn’t expect for you to make such an improvement in your Spirit Forging within the past couple of months. You can already complete Creation Spirit Forging and Evil Spirit Forging successfully. That’s great! Continue stabilizing your abilities and firm up your foundations. You need to intently feel the transformation in the alloy when you Spirit Forge. At the same time, you’ll also need to feel the transformation your body is going through during the forging process. These are the things that’ll break you through to the soul-forging level in the future.”

“Yes, uncle-master.”

Tang Wulin had plateaued at his current rank since he could never become a true rank-6 blacksmith without first obtaining a four-ringed cultivation base. However, he was already able to Spirit Forge alloys better than most rank-6 blacksmiths. The only thing he had yet to achieve was Fuse Spirit Forging. This was the reason why he could not ascend to the next rank. As for soul forging, he would need an even higher level of soul power to achieve it.

Zhen Hua replied, “Alright, there are still things that I’ll need to handle. Both of you go ahead and do your own thing. Oh yeah, Lin Yuhan asked me to pass this message to you. She wanted to say that she’ll definitely surpass your abilities. Wulin, my boy! You’ll have to work harder, alright?”

After saying goodbye to Zhen Hua, the first thing Tang Wulin did was to sell some of the spirit alloys he forged. To his surprise, the two spirit alloys he forged on the spot today were sold at a high price.

Alloys that went though Creation Spirit Forging and Evil Spirit Forging were very scarce. Before Tang Wulin managed to sell the two alloys to the association, they were already purchased by two blacksmiths who had just elevated to rank-5. They had hoped to elevate their Spirit Forging by researching the two alloys.

Although Tang Wulin amazed the crowd earlier, he barely gained any fame from defeating Lin Yuhan on the spot. However, he did become a popular little genius in the Blacksmith Association.

“Where would you like to go tonight?” Tang Wulin asked Gu Yue after leaving the Blacksmith Association. They would still make it to class as long as they returned by midnight tomorrow.

They temporarily left the mecha at the Blacksmith Association and would come back to get it before they left for Shrek Academy.

Gu Yue replied, “I’m not familiar with Sky Dou City. I’ll accompany you whenever you want to go.”

“Let’s take a stroll then. I like Sky Dou City very much!” Tang Wulin flashed a gentle smile.

The main attraction of Sky Dou City was that there were no skyscrapers and many of its ancient buildings were still well preserved. There were more ancient buildings here compared to any other place in the entire Douluo Continent.

Tang Wulin brought Gu Yue everywhere. They strolled the streets, alleyways, and the old streets. There were quaint stores on both sides of the streets and it made them feel as if they had traveled back to the past.

“Wulin, you really have to be a little more careful now. That evil soul master almost harmed you previously. Shall we return to the academy earlier?” Gu Yue spoke to Tang Wulin after walking for a while.

Tang Wulin smiled as he replied, “Nah, don’t worry. Evil soul masters are very scarce out here, how much of a coincidence would it have to be for them to bump into us?”

“You sure about that?” They heard a cold voice.

Tang Wulin panicked and shifted his body in front of Gu Yue to shield her subconsciously. However, by the tie they realized, the scenery around them had already changed.

The old streets around them suddenly turned into a world of darkness while a dense blood essence washed over his face. In the very next moment, he felt fuzzy in his head and lost consciousness as his head spun.

Then, the dark red glow suddenly weakened and the old streets returned to normal. Even the passing pedestrians did not notice two people disappearing from the street. It was like time had stopped when they disappeared a moment ago.

Tang Wulin shuddered as he woke up from being unconsciousness from the cold and piercing chill.

He subconsciously opened his eyes and to his surprise, there were clouds floating beneath him. He was high in the sky.

Then, he saw Gu Yue just across him with her body lying horizontally. To be more precise, they were both held between someone’s armpits.

Gu Yue’s face was pale and her eyes were still closed. The blood essence was actually from this person while the chilling cold was from the sky above them.

‘Is it an evil soul master?’ Tang Wulin felt helpless as he immediately guessed. It seemed like he had been too careless. Furthermore, he did not expect that this person would target him.

He guessed that this person who flew them into the sky was possibly the evil soul master who attempted to assassinate Zhen Hua earlier. If he was right, the possibility of him and Gu Yue surviving would be minimal.

‘This person’s a Hyper Douluo!’

“You’re quick to wake up!” A cold genderless voice was heard in Tang Wulin’s ear. The sound of that voice alone was enough to make him feel like he was going insane.

Tang Wulin closed his eyes without saying a word. It was useless for him to say anything at this point so he would rather not speak at all.

Right at that moment, an intense weightlessness suddenly hit him, and he could not help but scream. As he opened his eyes, he was shocked to find out that they were already free-falling toward the ground.

They fell quickly and passed through a number of clouds. The intense feeling of weightlessness naturally made people feel a subconscious fear.

Just as they were approximately a hundred meters away from the ground, an intense force lifted and stabilized them in the air. Tang Wulin almost spat out a mouthful of blood from that but before he could do so, both of them fell to the ground.

It was barren land and looking at the color of the sky, it was almost evening. It was then that Tang Wulin got around to take a good look at the evil soul master.

The evil soul master was covered in a tight gray garment. With his head covered, his eyes were the only things visible. They were gray as well but his pupils seemed strange as they were tinged red.

Waving both hands, he tossed Tang Wulin and Gu Yue on the ground.

“Did Spectre die in your hand?” the cold voice questioned Tang Wulin.

“Spectre?” Tang Wulin was stunned momentarily. “I don’t know who that is.”

“You don’t know? Spectre has been missing ever since he boarded the soul train and you’re one of the survivors in the incident,” the evil soul master replied coldly.

Tang Wulin came to a sudden realization. “Are you talking about the person who can soul forge I don’t even know where he went. Do you really think that I could kill him with my cultivation base?”

The evil soul master was stunned. It made sense, this kid was only a three-ringed soul master while Spectre was a six-ringed Soul Emperor. Besides, evil soul masters were slyer compared to ordinary soul masters. This alone would give them enough of an advantage when they go against an ordinary soul master at the same level.

Tang Wulin sat up and realized that he was free. It was not because their captor was being nice but instead, it was because the gap between their cultivation bases was so big that their captor thought it unnecessary to restrict the both of them.

The first thing Tang Wulin did was rush to Gu Yue. He touched her and her breathing was stable. However, she was still unconscious.

He stood upright as he tried to think of a way out. Since this evil soul master kept them alive, it was an indication that they might still be of some use to him. This meant that they might still have a chance of getting out of this alive.

“Senior, why did you capture kids like us?” Tang Wulin asked curiously with unbridled purity and confusion in his eyes.

“Kids? Tang Wulin, Shrek Academy’s outer court class president, first grade class one. Scarlet Dragon Douluo Zhuo Shi’s granddisciple who led you and your companions to defeat second grade class one. You even defeated the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy during the final exam. Am I right?” the cold voice spoke calmly.

Tang Wulin was secretly shocked, he did not expect his captor to investigate him so thoroughly. “Senior, Your Highness. Why’re you investigating an insignificant person like me?”

“Just because you’re insignificant now doesn’t mean that you’ll remain insignificant forever. Isn’t it Shrek’s expertise to train talents like you? What future does Shrek hold if they smother you little kids in a cradle?” the evil soul master said calmly.

Tang Wulin forced a smile. “Are you bullying the weak now?”

“Call Zhen Hua on his soul communicator.” The evil soul master completely ignored what he said.

Chapter 533

Limit Douluo?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The air erupted with countless explosions. It was as though every one of the glowing collisions caused a tiny crack in space itself. However, the dark gold barrier remained unaffected.

At that moment, the huge man waved his right hand. His right arm had suddenly become muscular while his hand was growing at an astounding rate. Five shining dark gold orbs seemed like they were going to tear heaven and earth apart.

As soon as he attacked, the imposing manner that he was gathering dissipated while the distance between them was covered instantly.

With the cultivation base of an evil soul master, she was shocked to find that she could not get out of range straight away.

‘What kind of skill does this person have?’

In a flash, a bright red glow lit up on her forehead; the countless bloody eyes in the sky were recalled and swiftly swarmed into her body.

Her entire being was covered in blood-red armor. This armor bore no fancy patterns, only vicious bloody eyes dazzled upon it.

Immediately, the evil soul master’s imposing manner skyrocketed. A pair of flaps opened on her back, resembling gigantic bat wings, blood red like her armor. As she flapped her wings, a crimson glimmer emanated; the red sword in her hand slashed a thin blood-like trail across the sky.

“Bang!”

A massive blast could be heard all around. From the center of the collision, the terrifying explosion shot up into the clouds. The very sky was torn apart by the overwhelming force of the two soul power waves.

A scarlet silhouette catapulted out from the within the deep. The figure flew hundreds of meters straight out before landing on the ground. Five wounds neatly striped across the breastplate she wore. Had it not been for her armor, she might have been completely torn apart.

“You… you’re a Limit Douluo?”

The evil soul master’s voice could not remain calm anymore.

She herself was a three-word battle armor master and as well as a Hyper Douluo! With the armor, her cultivation base was near to that of a Limit Douluo. On the other hand, her opponent managed to defeat her without having to put on any battle armor at all. That had proven one thing – the person was a Limit Douluo. A true Limit Douluo.

Although battle armor could elevate an evil soul master to the same level as a Limit Douluo, there were differences when compared to a true Limit Douluo. It was a world that operated on a divine level.

Even with battle armor, it was never really possible to reach such a level. Only people who had achieved a significant amount in their cultivation base would be able to open the door into that world.

At that point, the bloody-eyed evil soul master no longer cared about the power Tang Wulin could grant her and she rolled herself onto the floor. In an instant, her body completely transformed into glowing red stripes and shot out everywhere.

Rather than escaping toward one specific direction, the glowing bands scattered every which way. Just like that, the evil soul master had disappeared and was nowhere to be seen.

Surprisingly, the enormous man did not chase after her. Instead, he walked slowly toward Tang Wulin and Gu Yue. His right arm slowly shrank back to its initial size, while the five blades that had extended from his fingers retracted.

He only stopped walking when he arrived before Gu Yue.

At that moment, Gu Yue sat up from the ground. Yes, she sat up right away.

“Miss,” the man said respectfully with one knee on the ground.

“Hmm.” Gu Yue gave a short response and stood up. She walked to Tang Wulin and squatted down slowly. Gently, she caressed his face.

A gentle spark of light emanated from her and entered Tang Wulin’s cheek, causing the swelling to heal.

The massive warrior stood straight as an arrow, but he did not ask anything. His eyes, like yellow crystals, showed no sign of emotion at all.

“Are you curious as to why I didn’t let you kill that evil soul master?”

Although Gu Yue faced Tang Wulin, she asked the man.

“Yes,” he replied simply.

“‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend’. We should use whatever we have at our disposal. You can leave now.” Gu Yue waved her hand.

“Yes,” the hulking figure responded once more before turning around and walking slowly into the darkness.

Shadow fell upon them. Night had come.

Gu Yue sat by Tang Wulin, gazing at him dreamily. Only sometime later did she walk to Tang Wulin and lay down. She leaned her body into his embrace.

…

“Woah! This is too much!” Zhen Hua’s face was ghastly pale.

Mu Ye peered at him. “They’re fine, I’ve checked their bodies thoroughly. But it seems like Heaven Dou City might be dangerous now. Have you reported this incident to the federation? It’s best that you inform Shrek Academy as well.”

“Yes,” Zhen Hua nodded and calmed himself down.

“Fortunately, they’re alright, but looking at the condition of the scene, it appears as though there was a fight between masters. Furthermore, the elemental wave in the air was incredibly powerful. This was most certainly a fight between Hyper Douluo level experts. That evil soul master must have escaped. Could it have been people from Shrek Academy who were there?” Mu Ye asked Zhen Hua.

Zhen Hua shook his head. “It couldn’t be. I’ve asked Shrek. I’ll send them back myself after Wulin wakes up. It seems like this boy has been targeted by the evil soul master as well. Don’t let him leave the academy arbitrarily in the future. Evil soul masters won’t dare to create trouble within Shrek. Shrek has that ‘certain someone’ protecting the place after all.”

…

Tang Wulin felt a sense of warmth inside himself when he woke up from unconsciousness. It was an indescribable, comforting sensation.

As soon as he sat up, he subconsciously touched his cheeks and chest. He then looked at the decorations around the room.

‘I’m still alive?’

That was his first response. He then quickly checked his body. His blood was still there, no longer being drained.

A sense of excitement and joy spread all over him.

There was no pain or discomfort in his body at all. Swiftly, he got off the bed and went to the window, pulling back the curtain to take a look outside.

‘Isn’t this the Blacksmith Association?’ It was only then that he realized he was now in safe hands.

The last thing he could remember was the moment when the evil soul master tossed him out. He faintly recalled the deep voice of a man speaking at that point. It must have been that person who threatened the evil soul master.

‘But who was that? Was he the one that saved us?’

With many questions on his mind, Tang Wulin pushed open the door and bumped into Zhen Hua just as he was about to enter the room.

“You’re awake?” Zhen Hua lifted his hand and pressed it against Tang Wulin’s chest to check his physical condition. The boy was in high spirits now.

Tang Wulin said in excitement, “Uncle-master!”

He managed to survive! How could his heart not be filled with excitement and joy when he saw Zhen Hua again?

Zhen Hua sighed, “It’s your uncle-master’s fault that you’ve had to bear such a great risk. I didn’t expect the evil soul master to really linger around.”

Tang Wulin said, “Uncle-master, was it you who saved us? Where’s Gu Yue? How’s she now?”

“She’s fine. She’s resting in the other room. It wasn’t I that saved the two of you. By the time we arrived there, both of you were lying on the ground and the evil soul master was gone. Do you remember what happened?”

Tang Wulin described what had befallen him earlier.

“S--k your blood? It seems like that’s an evil soul master who uses blood as her cultivation source,” Mu Ye walked toward them from the other direction.

“Uncle Ye.” Tang Wulin was even more relieved when he saw him.

Zhen Hua said, “You guys should be going to class today, am I right? You’ve missed your morning class. If you’re up to it, let me take the both of you back to the academy.”

Zhen Hua had his own private high-altitude flying car which could reach extremely high speeds. It was much faster than the average mecha.

Tang Wulin looked at Gu Yue while sitting at the back of the car.

“I’m sorry for getting you into trouble,” Tang Wulin said softly to her.

Gu Yue shook her head.

“Are you alright? Are there any hidden injuries on your body?” Tang Wulin asked her gently.

“I’m fine.” Gu Yue shook her head again.

Tang Wulin attempted to ask more, but Gu Yue placed her palm to his and held onto his hand.

Without knowing why, Tang Wulin felt at peace as soon as her rather cold little hand held onto his.

The two of them did not say anything, while Zhen Hua who was in front was clearly gloomy. Although he did not speak much about the incident, Tang Wulin could clearly feel the anger he was suppressing.

The high-altitude flying car’s speed was fast, much faster than that of Tang Wulin’s mecha. What surprised Tang Wulin was that Zhen Hua’s flying car did not only fly directly into Shrek City but straight toward Shrek Academy. It landed slowly as they arrived outside of the academy entrance.

“Wulin, this is for you. Go to class now.” Zhen Hua turned around and gave Tang Wulin a ring. It was different from his first spatial ring. This ring had a magical jade green color, and it bore a silver stone. It had the appearance of a rich life source that was ready to blossom and looked oddly beautiful.

Tang Wulin tried it on and found that it fit nicely on the little finger of his left hand.

“Uncle-master, this is…”
