Qian Yu seemed to see through his mind and hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, it's just partial destruction, not asking you to destroy Sea God's Lake!"
Tang Wulin also awkwardly scratched his head, "Ah, I see."
He had thought he needed to turn Sea God's Lake upside down to find it!
But it should not have come to that yet!
Only then did Qian Yu continue, "Right, there's another thing you need to be cautious about. There are some defensive soul weapons placed below. Be very careful not to trigger them!"
Tang Wulin's heart tightened, and he asked, "What happens if I trigger them?"
It surely wouldn't result in Shrek Academy being erased from this Continent, would it?
Qian Yu, unconcerned, replied, "Nothing much would happen; even if you triggered them, with your current strength, you should be able to handle them!"
Assured, Tang Wulin let out a sigh of relief, "Then I'm relieved!"
Qian Yu nodded slightly, "Alright, I have helped you as much as I can. Whether you can solve the problem of the evil Soul Master from the Douling Empire depends on the determination of you people from the Lower Realm!"
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, "Thank you, brother-in-law, and please send my regards to my sister. Although I have never met her, I miss her very much!"
"Sure, I will. If there's nothing else, I'll eject you from this space now!"
Suddenly, Tang Wulin seemed to remember something and hastily said, "Wait... Brother-in-law, I still have one question. Would you mind answering it?"
He had always harbored doubt about this!
Qian Yu was not in a hurry to leave, "What question?"
Tang Wulin seriously asked, "Do you know Teacher Xu?"
Qian Yu stroked his chin, pondering, "Teacher Xu? You mean... Xu Sheng, who coaches your cultivation?"
Tang Wulin eagerly nodded, "Yes, that's right, do you know him?"
Since he mentioned Teacher Xu's name, the brother-in-law must surely know him!
Qian Yu merely showed a meaningful expression, "Wulin, that's not something you should know yet. You should ask him directly when you get to the Divine Realm!"
The youngster must have discovered something, but alas, he was not ready to reveal their relationship yet!
Tang Wulin felt somewhat reluctant, "Brother-in-law, could it be that you don't actually know who Xu Sheng is??"
Qian Yu was completely unfazed, "Wulin, provoking me won't work. Knowing these things won't benefit you!"
"Let's leave it at that!"
With a wave of his sleeve, the space suddenly collapsed and shattered...
Tang Wulin's soul was also forced back into his body...
He rubbed his somewhat tired head, "Although I didn't get to find out the relationship between the brother-in-law and Teacher Xu, there's no doubt that they know each other!"
"But since the brother-in-law doesn't want to talk about it, it must not be something I should know right now. I better focus on resolving the matters of the Lower Realm first!"
First of all, he needed to return to Sea God's Pavilion and update the other Elders on the situation...
After all, damaging Sea God's Lake was not a small matter; even as the Pavilion Master, he dared not act rashly!
...
It was only when Tang Wulin returned to Sea God's Pavilion that he found the Elders chatting and laughing...
However, upon realizing his return, they also restrained their previous demeanor...
It was Tang Yinmeng who first spoke, "Wulin, you're back so soon?"
The rest remained silent but appeared somewhat guilty...
Tang Wulin looked around with a suspicious expression, "Were you all just...?"
The atmosphere moments ago almost made me doubt if this was really the Sea God's Pavilion!
It felt just like a gathering among friends!
Tang Yinmeng also waved her hand dismissively and said casually, "Isn't it because you, as the Pavilion Master, were away? No one knew what to discuss, so we just chatted casually!"
Who knew, Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes and pursued, "Is that really so?"
He always felt that everyone was hiding something from him!
Tang Yinmeng's heart tightened, and she forced a smile, "Of course... of course, with Elder Cai and the others here, what could we possibly talk about? Ahahaha."
Tang Wulin did not hesitate to look at Cai Yue'er, "Elder Cai, is that so?"
Upon hearing this, Cai Yue'er answered unflinchingly, "Yes, we indeed didn't discuss anything important. We were just getting to know about your love story with Gu Yue through Xie Xie and Zheng Yu!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin turned his head sharply, staring intensely at Yue Zhengyu and Xie Xie...
He gritted his teeth and said, "Zheng Yu, Xie Xie, you..."
These guys, they really went too far!
Xie Xie immediately waved his hands, "Wulin, it's not my fault at all, it was all Senior Sister Tang's instigation!"
Yue Zhengyu quickly chimed in, "Exactly, exactly, it was Senior Sister Tang who wanted to know your story with Gu Yue. We just spilled it because we had no choice!"
Seeing that the blame had shifted to her, Tang Yinmeng became a bit flustered and tried to defend herself...
"Hey? It was clearly you guys who started talking about it, I didn't..."
Lan Muzi suddenly spoke up, "Yin Meng, discussing others' feelings behind their backs isn't very honorable!"
When Tang Wulin heard this, he also immediately understood something...
It must have been Tang Yinmeng who instigated it, while Xie Xie and Yue Zhengyu couldn't keep their mouths shut, resulting in all his matters being spilled...
Subsequently, his look towards Tang Yinmeng became somewhat complicated...
Tang Yinmeng knew she could no longer cover it up and immediately raised three fingers, "So... Wulin, it was indeed wrong of me to pry into your affairs with Gu Yue, and I apologize here, also promising I won't tell anyone!"
After staring at her for several seconds, Tang Wulin finally sighed, "Forget it, these things aren't important!"
"However, please don't let the word out, as your Pavilion Master, I do need some face!"
This statement also inadvertently eased the atmosphere within the Sea God's Pavilion...
At this moment, Yuanen Zhentian suddenly interrupted, "Wulin, you just went to the secret chamber, what happened?"
Tang Wulin also came to his senses, "I was just about to tell everyone, I met 'God... Qian Yu' in the secret chamber!"
Xie Xie's eyes lit up, exclaiming, "Qian Yu... is he the senior who ascended to godhood back then?"
Xu Xiaoyan chimed in, "I've also heard of this senior, but the academy's records about him are very sparse!"
Yuanen Yehui then expressed his curiosity, "This is a bit strange. Senior Qian Yu had entered the Divine Realm tens of thousands of years ago, why can he still communicate with the Lower Realm? The Divine Realm and Lower Realm should be separate!"
Tang Wulin patiently explained, "The reason why Senior Qian Yu can connect with the Lower Realm is because a medium exists, the soul tool he once left behind still retains some Divine Power!"
Elder Cai was the first to react, thoughtfully saying, "I see, so it's a soul tool left behind in the secret chamber..."
"So Wulin, what did this senior... say to you??"
