Guan Yue seemed unconcerned, "I know, I know, entrusting our hopes to the Divine Realm is just a wishful thought!"
After all, if the Divine Realm did not intervene and left them to exterminate the evil Soul Masters themselves, it would cause immense casualties among the soul masters on the entire Continent!
Only then did Tang Wulin breathe a sigh of relief, "Phew... Hall Master Guan, I'm glad you understand. No matter what, whether the gods from the Divine Realm will come to the Lower Realm to help us is an unknown. We can't place our hopes on them."
After a pause, he continued in a heavy tone, "Additionally, who is responsible for spreading the news that I am the son of the Sea God? Do you have any idea, Hall Master Guan?"
Hearing this question, Guan Yue propped up her chin, "Ah? That matter... let me think."
The revelation that Tang Wulin was the son of the Sea God Tang San had been known for a long time, and she needed to think carefully to come to a conclusion...
Tang Wulin did not rush her, waiting silently...
Suddenly, Guan Yue's eyes lit up, "Oh, I remember now!"
Tang Wulin asked eagerly, "Hall Master Guan, please tell me!"
Guan Yue answered with certainty, "The matter about you being the son of Sea God Tang San seems to have originated from the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"If not for them, perhaps none of us would even be aware of this."
Tang Wulin's gaze instantly turned blank, "The... the Holy Spirit Cult??"
"No... it can't be, how could they know my true identity?"
Apart from Teacher Xu knowing his identity from the very beginning, the others shouldn't be aware of it!
Even if they conducted a background investigation, they should only have found his foster parents, not Sea God Tang San!
Once again, Guan Yue said, "Wulin, I am just suggesting a possibility. Could it be that your Teacher Xu inadvertently leaked the information to the Holy Spirit Cult?"
The moment these words were spoken, Tang Wulin immediately dismissed the possibility...
"Impossible!"
"Teacher Xu reviles the Holy Spirit Cult and has rescued me from the hands of those evil Soul Masters numerous times. There's no reason for him to do such a thing!"
In his heart, Xu Sheng was someone he trusted even more than his father, Tang San!
Guan Yue did not say more, "I see, I guess that was out of line of me."
It seemed that the man called Xu Sheng, no, the god, indeed had a deep relationship with Tang Wulin!
So, could he also be related to Sea God Tang San?
Tang Wulin composed himself, "However... I still want to thank you, Hall Master Guan, for telling me these things."
Guan Yue just smiled slightly, "No need to thank me, after all, the Federation and Shrek Academy are the strongest allies!"
"I'm just curious, what do you need to know this for?"
Tang Wulin shook his head, not wanting to reveal the reason, "It's nothing, just asking casually!"
His reason for doing this was merely to see if he could find a way to reconnect with the Divine Realm!
After all, he had accidentally contacted a god known as the God of Judgment, whose name seemed to be Qian Yu!
Although Qian Yu had agreed to help, there had been no response since then!
It was possible that he had simply forgotten!
With these thoughts, Tang Wulin stood up, "Hall Master Guan, it's getting late, I need to leave now, thank you for being willing to meet with me alone this time."
Guan Yue sighed, "Is that so? That's really a shame, I was hoping to chat with you a bit more. But as the Sea God Pavilion Master, there are indeed many things you need to attend to, so I won't see you out."
"Farewell."
With a brief word, he turned and left...
Only after he had left did Guan Yue slowly say toward the empty room, "Ao Rui, there's no need to hide anymore. I'm afraid he's long since detected your presence!"
Soon, Ao Rui, who had completely concealed his aura, took a step out...
He said with a face full of doubt, "Hall Master, aren't you worrying too much? I had completely concealed my aura."
When he had entered, there had been absolutely no soul power fluctuation...
However, Guan Yue explained, "The spiritual power of that child, Tang Wulin, is probably the strongest in the world, aside from the Ghost Emperor and Gu Yuena. From the moment you entered, your presence was exposed."
Ao Rui could only slightly bow his head, "Sorry, Hall Master!"
Guan Yue shook her head, "It doesn't matter. Since he didn't expose it, it seems he doesn't care."
"So why have you suddenly rushed back? Is there some urgent matter?"
Ao Rui's expression immediately turned grim, "Hmm..."
"We had just arrived in the Douling Empire when we were attacked by a large number of evil Soul Masters!"
"Even though we managed to retreat successfully, we all suffered considerable injuries!"
Even though most of the War Gods' strength were at the Super Douluo level, facing so many evil Soul Masters, they were somewhat strained!
Of course, they were more afraid of attracting the attention of the Ghost Emperor who had broken through to the God Rank!
Guan Yue was also somewhat surprised, "Attacked? Does that mean the people we sent to scout had been exposed from the beginning?"
"Otherwise, how could those evil Soul Masters have discovered them so quickly?"
Ao Rui nodded in affirmation, "Hmm, that's what I'm thinking too. Besides being overrun with evil Soul Masters, the Douling Empire probably has some things we're unaware of!"
"Like some sort of detection Barrier!"
Guan Yue seemed to understand the other's point, "Ao Rui, are you saying that the Ghost Emperor has used some secret technique to sense the entire situation across the Douling Empire?"
Ao Rui hesitated for a moment, "This is just my speculation. It's also possible that we have traitors within the Federation!"
"However, it's clear that we must be more cautious in sending Federation members to scout the Douling Empire in the future."
The abundance of evil Soul Masters meant it wouldn't be surprising for the Federation to have some pawns planted within!
Guan Yue took a deep breath, "I see. Your information is very important, Ao Rui!"
A Barrier that could envelop the entire Douling Empire? Perhaps, for the Ghost Emperor who had broken through to God Rank, it was indeed possible!
After all, being just at the Ultimate Douluo level, she couldn't fathom the extent of power one had after breaking through to God Rank!
Ao Rui nodded slightly, "In that case, Hall Master, now that I have reported the situation, I'll be heading back!"
He had come here solely to report the incident, and the prior conversation was just something he had happened to overhear!
But Guan Yue stopped him, "Wait, there's something I'd like to discuss with you regarding the Spirit Pagoda's master, Gu Yuena."
Ao Rui seemed to realize something, "Hall Master, are you referring to what Tang Wulin said earlier?"
"I personally think it's better not to trust it easily!"
"Given the relationship between Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena, why would he suddenly reveal such critical information to us? Just to ease the relationship between the Federation and Spirit Pagoda?"
It might even be a trap that Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin had planned in advance, aiming to take complete control of the Federation!!
