The Legend of the Dragon King

Panda Novel

Xie Xie was the first one to walk out. “I’d like to see just what it is about this Tang Sect’s secret stronghold that can make me cry…”

He was mid-sentence when he had to hold back his sobs and immediately stopped in his tracks. It was as if his entire person had frozen in place.

Yuanen Yehui followed behind him. Because she was shorter than Xie Xie, she could not see what was happening in front of him. However, with her understanding of Xie Xie, she instinctively felt that something had happened. She quickly sidestepped and went to Xie Xie’s side.

At that moment, Xie Xie’s forlorn wail was heard, “Teacher Wu…” Then, he ran forward like lightning.

His white clothes flapped and his blue hair flowed in the wind. His expression was as ice-cold as ever, but his eyes were so gentle.

He had been waiting silently all this time for their return. He just stood there, not making a sound.

When Xie Xie saw him, he could not even believe that this was real. However, in the next instant, he could no longer hold back the feelings in his heart.

Just as Yue Zhengyu had said, when Shrek Academy was destroyed back then, everyone was in a state of shock. They were not even able to vent their feelings. Their minds were blank.

However, with the passage of time, when they thought about the many Shrek Academy comrades who had died in that great disaster, Teacher Wu included, the pain they felt in their hearts was excruciating.

Xie Xie had never expected to meet Wu Zhangkong here. There was no way he could have continued holding in his suppressed emotions, and his feelings gushed forth like an eruption. He practically pounced into Wu Zhangkong’s embrace, crying his heart out.

As he was crying bitterly, Xu Xiaoyan, Xu Lizhi, Yuanen Yehui, and Ye Xinglan were also shocked.

Teacher Wu…Teacher Wu was still alive…

Xu Xiaoyan was also personally trained by Wu Zhangkong. They had the closest relationship. She, too, screamed and charged toward him.

For a time, the space outside the elevator doors was filled with bittersweet cries.

Yue Zhengyu nudged Tang Wulin who stood beside him. “Big brother, do you think we’ve gone overboard with this? Do you think they’ll get even with us after they’ve calmed down?”

“What do you mean ‘us’? My girlfriend isn’t here,” Tang Wulin answered nonchalantly.

“Big brother, that’s low!” Yue Zhengyu wailed. When he remembered the threatening look Xu Xiaoyan shot him before this, he almost trembled with fear.

“Hehe.” Tang Wulin had no time to entertain him. He quickly walked up to the others.

A reunion after a departure of life and death. What could be more exciting and joyful than this?

Even Wu Zhangkong could not keep the emotion from his eyes. Being able to see these children again, his feelings had not been this excited for a very long time.

“Alright, alright. Everybody, calm down,” Tang Wulin only started to calm his companions down after a long while.

Xie Xie cried the hardest, perhaps because he was the first person to see Wu Zhangkong. He could not stop his tears from flowing no matter what.

Yue Zhengyu walked to his side and gave him a nudge, “Who’s bragging shamelessly just now?”

Xie Xie turned and glared at him with teary eyes, “Well, I don’t care. I’d brag shamelessly all my life if it’s enough to bring Teacher Wu back to life.”

Suddenly, he seemed to have remembered something. He suddenly stood up and looked at Wu Zhangkong. Then, he looked at Tang Wulin, “Big brother, this isn’t some prank of yours, is it? Teacher Wu isn’t someone else in disguise, right?”

They had learned how to disguise themselves on Demon Island, and Tang Wulin was the best student of them all. If he had disguised someone with a build similar to Teacher Wu, they would have been hard-pressed to notice it.

Tang Wulin said helplessly, “It’s true that I can disguise someone to look like Teacher Wu, but could they mimic his aura as well?”

“It’s not a disguise. There’s no way someone can duplicate Teacher Wu’s eyes,” exclaimed Xu Xiaoyan as she forcefully pinched Yue Zhengyu’s waist, her teary eyes filled with excitement.

Wu Zhangkong had been their idol just as much as he had been Tang Wulin’s in his youth.

“What’s going on?” Xu Lizhi asked Tang Wulin in confusion, no longer able to restrain himself.

Tang Wulin smiled. At that point, scores of figures walked up to them from afar.

“Wu Siduo? Xu Yucheng? There’s also Luo Guixing, Zheng Yiran, and Yang Nianxia. Good heavens! You’re all alive!?” When they saw these people, their emotions were ignited once again.

Even though they were competitors before this, their relationships started becoming closer after they had entered the inner court. No matter what, they were all from the most outstanding class!

Wu Zhangkong said with a grin, “If we weren’t waiting for all of you to return, I would have left with them already. I can finally rest easy after seeing all of you.”

As he looked at the dozen disciples before him, Wu Zhangkong was in a good mood, something he had not been in for a long time.

These disciples of his seemed to have surpassed their teachers. They were all Soul Saints in their twenties. Even in Shrek Academy, this was a rare occurrence.

He had nurtured all of them himself. As their teacher, there was nothing more exciting than this.

“You guys are leaving? Where to?” asked Xie Xie curiously.

Tang Wulin shot Xie Xie a glance, “They’re going off to take part in their military training. It’s where we’ve been to before.”

When they heard Tang Wulin’s words, the Shrek Seven Monsters had peculiar expressions, just like their inner court seniors had had before they left.

Demon Island! Without a doubt, it was only natural that they would be going there. That was a place which left everyone with “deep” impressions.

“That’s great. You’ll enjoy it there!” Yue Zhengyu wore a smirk.

When they saw their expressions, Wu Siduo and the others exchanged looks. Yang Nianxia said, “What kind of place are we going to have our military training? Why are all of you looking so strange?”

Xu Lizhi said with all seriousness, “Oh, its nothing. It’s a great place. Believe us. I mean, look at us. We’re improving this quickly because we’ve undergone special training there. Maybe you guys will catch up to us after you come back from that place.”

Wu Siduo shot them a glance, “No matter how arduous it is, we’ll complete it as soon as possible. Then, we’ll come back and rebuild Shrek.”

Tang Wulin nodded with a smile.

Wu Zhangkong said, “Pavilion Master, bring them to their resting place. I have preparations to make as well and I’ll depart with Wu Siduo and the others. There’s a total of twelve students for the first batch. That place can’t accommodate too many people at once.”

“Alright.” Tang Wulin nodded.

Although Wu Zhangkong was his teacher, he was also the Sea God Pavilion’s Pavilion Master. He could not be as reverent as he had been anymore. After all, he represented the entire academy and the Tang Sect.

“Pavilion Master?”

Other than Yue Zhengyu, the other five members of Shrek Seven Monsters could not help but look at Tang Wulin.

Wu Zhangkong said, “The academy’s restoration has begun. The outer and inner courts have been formed. Wulin is now the Sea God Pavilion’s Pavilion Master. As the current Shrek Seven Monsters, you’re all the Sea God Pavilion’s elders as well.”

The Shrek Seven Monsters were stunned by this and had solemn expressions.

The academy’s reconstruction had started. Young people such as themselves were the elders. One could only imagine the difficulty of the future rebuilding process. Whatever the case, they had to face it positively no matter what.

Yue Zhengyu said with a smile, “There are more surprises to come. They’re not the only ones who survived!”

He was in too much pain from Xu Xiaoyan’s pinches. He could not care less about anything else.

An hour later, when the Shrek Seven Monsters were brought by Tang Wulin to their residence, other than Tang Wulin and Yue Zhengyu, the others felt as if they were in a dream.

The outer court juniors survived. The inner court seniors were also alive. Even Elder Long was here.

What better news could there be than this?
