The Legend of the Dragon King

Yi Zichen had just completed one round of his joy. He stumbled and almost lost his balance after seeing the senile Chen Xinjie hugging the young and beautiful Long Yeyue.

Naturally, the emotional changes in Yi Zichen did not escape the eyes of the two great Limit Douluos. They gazed into one another’s eyes and could not help but laugh aloud.

In Tang Sect.

“What are you doing there?” asked the puzzled Amorous Douluo Zang Xin upon seeing the Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi bustling in his room.

“Why should I tell you?” Cao Dezhi darted him a look.

Zang Xin said in an unpleasant tone, “You’re probably bored with nothing to do, right? Do you want to fight?”

Cao Dezhi smiled. “Do you think that you’re a worthy opponent of mine?”

Zang Xin replied furiously, “How am I not a worthy opponent of yours? Let’s fight to prove it.”

“We’ll fight then! I’ll show you how powerful I am!” Cao Dezhi did not wish to show any impression of weakness!

Half an hour later.

Cao Dezhi walked out from the combat arena with a swollen face and a bruised nose. He looked incredulous. He said in rage, “Why? Since when did this man become so powerful?”

Zang Xin followed closely behind Cao Dezhi with a smile on his face. He looked very pleased with himself.

“Little Cao! Are you ready to give in to me?”

Cao Dezhi said furiously, “No. I’m not in my best form today. Just you wait and see!”

The expression on Zang Xin’s face turned gentle in the meantime. He placed an arm over Cao Dezhi’s shoulder and said, “Don’t need to wait anymore. I won’t spar with you from now on. It’s because you can’t possibly defeat me.”

Cao Dezhi glared at Zang Xin. “Why? Why can’t I defeat you anymore?”

Zang Xin shrugged and said, “The reason is simple. Your heartless heart has already been broken so how can you possibly defeat me? The Heartless Douluo who is no longer heartless. How can he still be a worthy opponent of mine? Life can be heartless, but you may still meet people who are full of passion.”

“You…”

In Tang Sect’s soul technology research center!

“B*st*rd, b*st*rd. I want my Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit units back. I want my Eternal Heaven back!”

At present, the biggest laboratory in the whole facility was in a mess. The exasperated Director Ling Zichen was smashing various items to vent her anger. She was sitting on the working platform panting loudly with a furious expression on her face.

She lost count of the number of times she had lost her temper in the lab.

At present, she could not be a more ordinary person. The only difference was the fact that every injury and flaw she had on her body was healed by the Ancient Life Tree. She now had a youthful and healthy body.

“Am I supposed to start from the beginning again?” Her emotions gradually calmed down. The corner of her lips curled into a bitter smile.

She clearly remembered her final decision and how she shrieked aloud when she dived into the battlefield without the slightest hesitation.

She felt as if she could still hear her shriek echoing in his ears. At the same time, the only hope she had at the time was for that man to survive.

Nonetheless, they were both still alive, but he was not hers.

She wanted to break free from the agony of a broken heart. Yet, the pain only got worse each time she tried to break free.

All of a sudden, an idea arose in her mind. She leaped down from the working platform abruptly. “I’m going to carry out a whole new research. Tang Wulin, just you wait and see. We’re not done yet!”

…

At sea.

The warships formed an orderly arrangement in the sea as they cruised along at high speeds.

Dai Yun’er gazed into the distance with teary eyes on the deck.

It was finally time to leave.

The Douluo Federation was grateful to the Star Luo Empire’s and the Dou Spirit Empire’s altruistic acts to let bygones be bygones and to offer their reinforcements to them. Hence, a large amount of resources were given to them in return as a token of appreciation. Moreover, the Douluo Federation would continue their diplomatic relationships with these two empires. Later, they would come up with some policies to strengthen the relationship.

Yet, all these were utterly meaningless for Dai Yun’er.

She saw him, but she only took a glance from the distance. Her heart was truly broken when she witnessed Gu Yuena and him holding hands as they were descending together from the sky. She realized that she did not stand a chance to be with him after all.

Her ultimate decision was to leave. ‘Goodbye, Tang Wulin!”

…

“Is he still having tantrums?” Gu Yuena frowned. She was dressed in a gorgeous dress and seated in the Pagoda Master’s office located at the highest level of the Spirit Pagoda’s headquarters.

“Yes, Pagoda Master. He’s still throwing tantrums. After multiple consultations with a few recovery-type soul masters, they concurred that it would be very difficult for his mental state to be normal again. Perhaps, he’ll remain in this state for the rest of his life. Due to his Title Douluo-ranked cultivation base, he might cause massive destruction. We recommend putting him in confinement.”

Qiangu Zhangting had gone mad.

Perhaps it was due to the passing of his grandfather and great grandfather coupled with the sight of Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin together. He became unstable after returning to the Spirit Pagoda. One day, all of a sudden, he went into a hysteria and caused massive destruction. It was Gu Yuena who personally captured him.

An insane Title Douluo’s destructive ability was absolutely shocking.

Gu Yuena’s eyes had a flash of grievance. She used to loathe Qiangu Zhangting in the past, but she now felt pity for him. On the other hand, he had always treated her well.

“Confine him then. Make sure he’s as comfortable as possible.”

Qiangu Dieting and Qiangu Dongfeng were not resurrected. The Qiangu Clan had been fully stripped of their duties in the management of the Spirit Pagoda from then on. On the other hand, Gu Yuena received unanimous support from the Spirit Pagoda’s top management due to her impressive performance in the war.

The Spirit Pagoda conducted their own inspection and cleaned up the organization, in particular, the Qiangu Clan’s collusion with the Holy Spirit Cult was renounced.

The Spirit Pagoda regained its reputation, as one of the top organizations on the continent at par with Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect, once again.

The only concern of the high-ranking personnel of the Spirit Pagoda was the relationship between Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin.

They had shown the special relationship between the both of them when they fought together against the abyssal Sage King. Tang Wulin’s act of holding hands with Gu Yuena, as they descended from the sky at the end, displayed their close, affectionate relationship to everyone.

The great forces returned to their posts upon returning from the frontline. No one dared to question Gu Yuena regarding the matter. Everyone was waiting to see how she would manage the affair in the future.

Most of the Spirit Pagoda’s high-ranking personnel did not wish to see any further development of the relationship between Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin. After all, the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda was not as simple as being mere competitors. There were other underlying issues.

The incident of the Eternal Tree breaking through the sky turned Shrek City into the center of the entire continent. The voices within the Spirit Pagoda’s committee had a change of minds. Someone suggested that it was not a bad idea for a marriage which would foster a closer relationship between the Spirit Pagoda and the new Shrek Academy.

From the Federation’s point of view, they did not encourage a close connection between these two powerful organizations. However, the current situation was unique.

The Federation had just experienced a great catastrophe. Tang Wulin’s identity as the Sea God Tang San’s son was confirmed, and he was also the hero who did his best to save the situation. At present, no one could possibly oppose him. Moreover, the parliament would have little against him in view of the relationship between the newly-appointed speaker and the Dragon Emperor Douluo.

So, it was not necessarily a bad thing for the two great organizations to be united through marriage. As for the specific details, no one knew.

The high-ranking personnel of the Spirit Pagoda maintained their silence in the matter. No one dared to say nor ask anything. Everyone sat and waited for Gu Yuena’s decision. Perhaps, one should say the decision between her and Tang Wulin.

The room turned quiet once again. Gu Yuena stood in front of the window and gazed into the distance.

She could see people bustling atop the gigantic, umbrella-like crown with her superb sight. They were Shrek Academy’s people building their Eternal Sky City. Undoubtedly, the Eternal Sky City would become the core of the Douluo Continent or even the entire Douluo Star.

The new Shrek City rose completely after the war. In fact, it even surpassed its previous reputation. There was a saying: ‘You can only make a breakthrough by beginning anew and learning from past experiences’.
