If she had only seen him alone, she would have thought that it was her eyes deceiving her. However, there was more than just him. His companions were there too. Xie Xie, Yue Zhengyu, Xu Xiaoyan, Xu Lizhi, Ye Xinglan, and Yuanen Yehui were all here. Every single one of them was here.
She felt confused at the moment. Her entire person sank into extreme inconsistency. She quietly followed them like a dead person walking.
She had special authority to enter the gymnasium due to her identity. She saw the spar as a result of it.
He was different from the past. His appearance had not changed at all but his nature was too different now.
He was a warm, sunny, and energetic youth in the past. However, when she saw him this time, she felt like she was looking at her father.
The change in his aura was too huge for he had managed to remain as steady as a mountain when he was confronted by a powerful man like the Smiley Face Douluo.
If one were to say that the man he was in the past was already sufficient to attract her and left behind such a profound impression on her mind, then the person he was right now was attracting her gaze and affected her heart in a different form.
With such a target of love, how could she ever fall for the youth earlier? Whose fault was it that the man she loved was the most outstanding person amongst his peers?
It felt as if she was destined to suffer for loving such a man. Fortunately, she did not see her by his side this time. Perhaps, they were not together as anymore? Perhaps, they were no longer a couple?
Dai Yun’er understood that this was possibly the only chance for her.
“What are you going to do about it?” Long Yue asked in a deep voice.
Dai Yun’er inhaled a deep breath as if she was gathering exceeding amount of courage for herself. “I wish to seek a favor from you, brother Long Yue. Only you can help me in this matter.”
“Sure.” Long Yue answered in the same old simple and direct manner.
“Aren’t you going to ask me about the favor first? The favor can possibly go against your principles.” Da Yun’er bit down on her red lips with her pearly whites.
Long Yue shook his head. “Since when have I ever said no to you? It has never happened in the past and will never happen in the future either. You’ll always be the little elf in my heart and my little sister.”
Her tears that stopped flowing earlier once again streamed down her face. Her vision was blurred as Dai Yun’er pounced into Long Yue’s arms. “Thank you, brother Long Yue. Thank you!”
Long Yue heaved a sigh in secret. He shook his head with helplessness for he wondered what sort of punishment he would face for getting the hug after returning home. When his woman found out that he was coming out to meet Yun’er, she followed along and was watching from nearby. ‘Little sister! Your actions are causing trouble for me.’
……
“Brother, what are you going to do now?” A vivacious voice was heard from the other end of the soul communicator. Dai Yueyan could not help cracking a faint smile on his face. “Hey you, when are you going to grow up? You always act like a rascal.”
“Hah-hah. Will I still be myself if I don’t behave that way? I’m the amusing one out of our eight great heavenly kings. Do you know that the Shrek Seven Monsters are here? What do you say about this? We’ve cultivated painstakingly for so many years and we’ve been holding back on our pent-up grievance for so many years. Regardless, we can’t let them go easily this time. I believe that we’re capable of beating them so hard that their faces will open up like blooming peach blossoms this time! Please contact our big brother so we can immediately engage them for a spar!” Teng Teng swiftly spoke. Fortunately one could not leave behind remnant shadows with one’s voice, otherwise his moniker of ‘Shadow King’ would fit him even better.
“Why don’t you call big brother yourself?” Dai Yueyan could not help laughing.
“Me? Forget it. He’s already used to being an academic dean now. He disciplines everyone that comes across and I’m no exception! I don’t want to have a stroke of bad luck. There’s only you that he won’t reprimand.”
Dai Yueyan said, “alright, I will talk to him. However, don’t be overconfident. We’ve been elevating ourselves all these years but are they not doing just the same? Don’t you cry like a baby when you lose this time.”
Teng Teng sniggered. “The person who cares about winning the most has never been me, it was you right?”
Dai Yueyan was stunned for a moment. As the empire’s fourth prince and even the current crown prince, the defeat from the past had always greatly affected him. He had never let go of cultivation even though he was dealing with a myriad of events daily. Perhaps, it was because of the defeat back then.
Sometimes defeat was the best motivation. For example, he was currently extolled by the civil and military officers and was even reputed to be the emperor with the most powerful combat force in the next thousand years.
He genuinely could not miss the opportunity this time!
“I’m on my way to see Tang Wulin,” Dai Yueyan calmly said.
“Huh? Have you already lost your inhibition?” Teng Teng spoke in astonishment. “Why didn’t you ask me to tag along. That’s very unfriendly of you.”
“Pfft! What for? I’m going to represent the empire to meet him this time. Tang Wulin is already not as simple as the leader of the Shrek Seven Monsters anymore. He’s here to represent the Tang Sect this time with the identity of Tang Sect’s Sect Master.”
“Tang Sect’s Sect Master?” It was apparent that Teng Teng had yet to receive this information from Lin San who had contacted him earlier. Teng Teng was stunned.
“Alright. We’ll talk later. I’ve already arrived at the Tang Sect.”
The car had already stopped in front of Tang Sect’s main door when he hung up the communicator. Except for the Tang Sect’s cars, even the royal cars were not allowed to drive inside the Tang Sect’s headquarter. So he would have to walk into the headquarter by himself.
Dai Yueyan was a disciple of Tang Sect in his earlier years. He had to withdraw from Tang Sect following the rules after he inherited the position as the crown prince afterward. However, he had always felt a profound feeling towards the place and his affinity to Tang Sect had far exceeded the other princes.
Many of the civil and military officials regarded the fourth prince’s ability to inherit the position of crown prince was mostly because of the Tang Sect’s support.
This was also the case in reality. Even though Tang Sect’s support was in secret, it had an important effect on this matter. Dai Yueyan was on intimate terms with the Tang Sect most importantly because Tang Sect had never gotten involved in politics and it supported peace and harmony.
Such manner of pacifism was naturally not targeted at the Douluo Federation which acted as the overlord of the continent, but it was extremely crucial for a weaker Star Luo Empire.
This was also the reason why Tang Sect’s status in both Dou Spirit Empire and Star Luo Empire was even higher than Spirit Pagoda.
A sect was still a sect after all. Any sect would be affected by the silent influence of politics, whether it was Spirit Pagoda, the Tang Sect, the Body Sect or others. On the other hand, the effect of these influences would naturally cause retroactions that resulted in deciding whether a sect could be powerful or not.
There were already people from Tang Sect that came over to welcome his highness fourth prince. When he walked through the main door of Tang Sect’s headquarter, there were already people waiting inside for him.
Smiley Face Douluo Hu Jie and Tang Wulin stood in the middle for this was an essential etiquette. There was also the royalty that came following Dai Yueyan’s arrival.
Dai Yueyan found Tang Wulin standing right in the middle at first glance.
Just as Dai Yueyan had first laid eyes on him, he first sensed that Tang Wulin had changed. Tang Wulin had a countless times steadier bearing as compared to before. His childishness had vanished completely. He appeared just like an ordinary person but was equipped with an aura that was not found in ordinary people. He just stood over there and became the center of attention in a very natural manner.
He sized Tang Wulin up and down while Tang Wulin was also doing just the same thing. Dai Yueyan appeared to have undergone rather big changes too. After becoming the crown prince, he had a kingly aura to himself. He felt overbearing despite not being angry. He walked with a majestic gait while his figure became bulkier than before. He was calm and composed so his moniker of Tiger King seemed to complement him even better now.
“We meet again.” Tang Wulin walked over with a smile.
Dai Yueyan stretched out his hand and shook Tang Wulin’s. Both of them had lost the childish thinking of attempting to gauge one another’s strength through the handshake like when they were young. Their hands parted immediately after the shake and it was a simple contact. Dai Yueyan discovered in astonishment that he was utterly incapable of seeing through Tang Wulin anymore.
The man was truly different, as expected!
Tang Wulin was younger than all of them. Judging by their age, he was of about the same age as Dai Yun’er. A few years had passed and the Shrek Seven Monsters were truly too different at present.
They were the opponents once but they were representing different forces right now. They were meeting once again and they felt slightly upset. Time brought great changes to the world and everything happened for a reason.
“Your highness crown prince, this way please.” Smiley Face Douluo broke the silence and made an invitatory gesture.
“Your excellency is too courteous.” Dai Yueyan was still acting rather courteous when speaking to Smile Face Douluo. Actually just like how Long Yue had En Ci as his teacher, Smiley Face Douluo had provided guidance to Dai Yueyan. So he was considered half of Dai Yueyan’s teacher due to his position as the vice hall master of the palace’s Worship Hall. It was because of this relationship that Dai Yueyan had always been close to Tang Sect ever since young and became a part of it. He had a very close relationship with Smiley Face Douluo, just that the majority of the people from the outside were unaware.
Under Smiley Face Douluo’s guidance, the group of people arrived at the meeting room. Tang Wulin and Shrek Seven Monsters were sitting on one side while Dai Yueyan brought along his officers to sit on the other side.
