Chapter 452 - Homecoming (Part 1)

Tang Wulin appeared above the Earthland planet, staring down at it for a bit.

"So that was your old home?"

"Yeah."

Tang Wulin nodded while falling into thought.

This went on for a bit before the Universal Law spoke up, bringing him out.

"Any more places we need to go?"

"No, it's about time to go home."

Tang Wulin stared at Earthland once more before his figure vanished, leaving the Earthland universe and going back to his new one.

"I don't sense them anymore."

Na'er muttered as her divine sense spread through the whole galaxy and even further.

Sweeping through the other galaxies that were around theirs, but she didn't find any more gods around.

"Wulin probably returned them to their timeline and galaxy."

Gu Yuena said, causing Na'er to nod her head as she also came to the same conclusion as well. Yet both of them were wondering where he was and why hasn't he shown himself.

They assumed he already fought Typhoon and came out victorious.

They didn't think he would have done this before or during his fight with Typhoon. Not only because Typhoon would interfere or just start the process, back up.

But it would leave him open for an attack.

"Hmm, I don't think we should be worried. Knowing Wulin, he should be done and just taking his time to come home."

"You think he would really do that?"

"Not without a good reason... Maybe he is retrieving his father?"

Gu Yuena blinked her eyes, she didn't think of that.

Tang San and the previous Douluo God Realm were still lost, stuck inside a black hole with other God Realms.

From what Tang Wulin told them, the black hole had already claimed many other God Realms.

If nothing was done, then the Douluo God Realm would be destroyed by the black hole in a year time

Yet the sad part was that they wouldn't know if a year had passed or not, since the black hole was distorting time around them.

So seconds could turn into a month in an instant, making it hard to calculate inside.

"Hm, he could have at least let us know."

"Okay, I plan to get them back now."

A voice rang out behind Gu Yuena causing her eyes to widen.

A hand coiled around her waist before it brought her into a warm embrace. But Gu Yuena didn't try resisting, she recognized the voice and the feeling of peace that she gained from these familiar arms.

"Wulin..."

Gu Yuena whispered before Tang Wulin leaned down and kissed her softly, making her slightly tremble.

But she relaxed the next moment. It was a sweet one; one filled with countless emotions and feelings.

Those warm and soft lips, feeling them once again, made her realize how much she missed them.

Even though he was gone for a bit, fighting for survival against these terrible odds. It really made her feel like it has been a while since they last saw each other.

She felt his hands softly caressing her face before they parted.

Her eyes caught the deep love that flourished within his goldish-blue and crimson eyes.

Before this was rare, something that only showed up when Wulin was extremely happy or alone with them.

But now?

She could see it clearly, the love that seemed to cover all of the heaven and earth, so gentle and fierce.

Yet at this moment, it was love that was only for her.

As they began to part away, with Tang Wulin's eyes staring at her, Na'er voice rang out.

"Wulin!"

Tang Wulin opened his left arm, just as Na'er divided into his embrace with a laugh and to the irritation of Gu Yuena.

As this dived made them both tremble a bit.

"Do you have to dive?! Can't you walk over like a normal person?"

"Hush, diving is so much better and romantic~"

"Said no sane person ever!"

As they two got into their joyful bickering, Tang Wulin just watched on with a smile.

He was still recovering from visiting Fiore, the past memories, and seeing Zeref again, albeit not his own.

Was something that caused a surge of emotion through him. He couldn't really describe it, but it seemed to cause a ripple through all of his hearts.

Especially Fairy Heart, who seemed to be resonating with the memories. One that would require a bit of time for him to fully calm down, but strangely enough as always.

Whether it be from them leaning into him, holding him tightly, or just being there for him, he wasn't sure.

Being around these two, always seemed to calm him down.

Even when they were bickering, it was something he figured came from him loving them.

Shaking his head, he spoke up.

"Come on now, I have to tell everyone that the war is over and then retrieve the previous God Realm."

"Oh right..."

Holding on to Tang Wulin's left arm while Gu Yuena held on to his right, Na'er giggled as she leaned her head on him.

Tang Wulin held them closely as he began going down, moving toward where everyone was.

Down below was the whole Douluo Star army, filled with divine beasts and gods. It took a while, but they started noticing the descending figures.

They all saw Gu Yuena and Na'er, as well as Tang Wulin who was between both them.

Once they saw all three of them, they began to erupt in a cheer.

The cheers seemed to shake the whole solar system, as all of them were roaring and yelling. Whether it be the divine beasts, divine plant beasts, or gods all of them were shouting his name.

"It's Tang Wulin! The God of Existence! He actually returned!"

"Doesn't this mean he defeated Typhoon? Even with the Universal Law, he triumphed over it?"

"He was the one who quelled the gods! The one who saved us!"

"Tang Wulin!"

Almost everyone was shouting, all of them were bustling with joy and happiness.

How could they not be?

With Tang Wulin returning, it meant their homes were finally safe. They wouldn't need to worry about the 7th-dimensional God, Typhoon coming and destroying it.

Yet it was this thought that made them all realize Tang Wulin achieved another heaven-shaking accomplishment.

One that would last in the history book for eternity! Alongside all of his other heaven-defying achievements, he has done.

The return of Tang Wulin made them all want to celebrate right this instant! Some of them couldn't believe everything had worked out so well.

While others simply enjoyed the moment, relishing the feeling of victory. After all, this was a war that was fully stacked against them, yet they survived it!

All of the gods who died were revived and restored to full health!

Not only that but they all could now enjoy the life of a God in their terrifying realm.

How could they not be excited and moved?

It wasn't wrong to say that they were able to achieve the happy endings they were fighting for!

While everyone was trembling with happiness, a few streaks of light went towards Tang Wulin.

The first ones were his lovers, all of them diving towards him and wrapping their arms around him.

All of them have been concerned about Tang Wulin. But they also became excited and moved! He not only returned but also in one piece.

And that was all they cared about.

Tang Wulin brought them all into a tight hug, slightly surprising them but they simply accepted it.

"Thank you for being alright."

Each of them felt his relief that all of them were okay.

"Thank you for making it out fine."

They all felt his joy that all of them were able to make it out safely.

"Thank you for not making me walk this path alone."

And they felt his love for them. The love that was eternally grateful that each of them made it out alright with no tragedy to follow.

For sticking by his side from the distinct beginning even on this unknown and perilous path.

There was no guarantee they would make it out or even if there would be a happy ending.

"Thank you for allowing me to love you… Six. Even with the others inside of me, you six are still my truest love."

And that made them be swept with a feeling of bliss. They didn't say anything back. or asked what he meant.

They simply hugged him back tightly.

They knew he wasn't this emotional, which is why this moment was so touching to them. For him to be so emotional, he broke his remarkable composure and showed his heart to them.

The deepest feeling within was displayed to them.

"You idiot." Mu Xi spoke up while her head touched his."Of course, we would make it out fine. We all promised to make it back to each other, no matter what."

"Right, no matter what." Wu Siduo spoke with a smile. " We promise each other to create a future where we had no regret or tragedy."

"A future that was forged by our unbreakable bond with each other. One that will cut down all threats." Said Ye Xinglan as her eyes shined with confidence.

Gu Yuena eyes soften. "Even when it felt like everything was going to break apart. We stood together and overcame all of it, producing the impossible."

Na'er winked and said."All for the future where we could remain together forever."

Xu Xiaoyan giggled."Didn't I say it? We would survive and make it through all of this. Now all that is left, is to reap the reward, which is our sweet ending~"

Tang Wulin smiled at each of their words, but he didn't say anything.

Next were his friends alongside Ah Yin, Tang Hao, Er Ming, and the others rushing along.

All of them were incredibly excited, smiles on their face.

As they arrived around Tang Wulin, all of them began asking if he was alright, if everything was okay and was that his hand before.

He quickly answered all of their questions, and finally the one that was on everyone's mind.

"Yes, Typhoon is no more... We can finally rest easy, this war is over."

As Tang Wulin said, the whole place erupts in even more cheers and roars. Tang Wulin saying that the war was over made them even more excited that his return.

At the minimum officially, they finally have confirmation that they could finally relax.

Everything was okay now.

"Say, is that one of your spirit souls?" Xu Xiaoyan asked, staring at the Universal Law who seemed to be sleeping on his head.

"In a way yes."

"He looks so cute~," Xu Xiaoyan said as she stretched her hand out, grasping the Universal Law gently.

Before pulling it into her arm, while tending to it, to the irritation of the Universal Law and amusement of Tang Wulin.

"So, are you going to tell us what happened over there?" Yun Ming asked the questions that some people had on their minds.

It wouldn't be wrong to say, all of them wish they could have seen the battle.

This was a battle between two 7th-dimensional God, how could they not wish to see it?

They very much doubt if they would ever get the chance again, as this was something far too rare in the history of the Universe.

"I will tell you all soon, for now, I need you guys to return back to the realm."

"Is there a reason?" Ah Yin questioned the others and nodded their heads.

"I plan to bring back the old Douluo Realm and just fused the realm. This way no conflict between the two can happen. You guys need to be inside, so you won't get affected by the turbulence from the fusion."

"Right... That is a good idea."

"Wait, Wulin... Who will be the leader of the realm?" Di Tian spoke out with a complicated look.

It wasn't just him but some of the divine beasts were also gaining a complicated look. As Wulin was bringing back the old god realm, the same realm that placed the curses on them.

They were a bit worried that they might try to put the curse back on them, depending on who the leader will be.

"Don't worry, I won't let any of them harm you guys."

After hearing Tang Wulin's words, all of the divine beasts relaxed with the Holy Dragon King chuckling and other Dragon Kings smiling.

With Tang Wulin's protection, what could the old Douluo God Realm do?

Even with their Five God-Kings, they weren't matched for Gu Yuena or Na'er who became a 6th-dimensional God.

Let alone Tang Wulin who they believed was still at the 7th-dimensional rank. As everyone started to make their way, back to the realm, Tang Wulin held on to Na'er and Gu Yuena.

"You two need to stay so you can open the realm center when I am about to do it."

"Alright... Then let's just send them back inside."

Gu Yuena said with Na'er nodding her head, with a wave of their hands. All of the Gods and Divine beasts lit up a nine-colored light before all of them turned into a pillar of divine energy.

Turning into streaks of light, all of them rushed back inside of the God Realm while Tang Wulin began to stare off into the distance.

His eyes began narrowing, as he started penetrating through space-time, finding the location of Tang San.

#

In a Blackhole, the end of the God-King War has come to an end.

"Third Brother!"

A beautiful woman rushed towards the Sea God Tang San, she had long brown hair draped in a scorpion braid.

The women who were none other than Xiao Wu dived into Tang San's arms, wrapping her arms around him tightly.

Tang San hurriedly hugged his wife, gently stroked her long scorpion braid.

"Don't cry, we won didn't we? Against the odds we achieved victory! Besides, all the god-kings are remarkably good. With all of us working together, we should have a great chance to leave here."

But Xiao Wu only shook her head after she raised it. Looking up at Tang San with tears in her eyes that were filled with shame.

"Third Brother, I'm ashamed, it's all my fault. You have done so much, tolerated so much, and had to shoulder so much alone. I have always troubled you, not being there for you... I promise I will get better, so you don't have to shoulder everything by yourself. I will always be by your side."

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Tang San couldn't help shaking his whole body. He lowered his head and looked at her seriously, only to see the resolution in Xiao Wu's red eyes.

Alongside her tone which was filled with such firmness and determination, he felt pleasurable excitement and warmth inside.

One should understand, before this. His wife acted lifelessly, her sickness and the loss of their son made her spirit weak but now?

It felt like she was alive, how could he not be happy?

"Xiao Wu..." Tang San's eyes were a little blurred but before he could say anything he felt a voice inside of his head.

"Dad, can you hear me?"
