Chapter 257: Separation

After repeatedly confirming the two Dragon Kings' thoughts, seeing they were unwilling to change their minds, Tang Wulin had to ask:

"Senior Ilex, do you have a way to fulfill their wish?"

In just a few days, his impression of Ilex had changed dramatically; now Ilex was far stronger than Mu En in his mind.

At least many things Ilex can do are things Mu En cannot.

"Of course."

Sure enough, Ilex's figure appeared again beside Huo Yutong; he stroked his beard and said:

"Initially I wasn't very confident, but since the two Dragon Kings have voluntarily chosen to turn their bodies into undead, it's not difficult for me at all."

Tang Wulin sighed.

"Then it's up to you."

Saying so, he extended both hands, signaling the two Dragon Kings to come before Ilex.

When the Water Fire Dragon King arrived before him, Ilex's gaze focused; a long gray staff appeared in his hand, and obscure incantations began to flow continuously from his mouth.

Soon the ground trembled, shaking more violently, making it hard to stand.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, two dragon skeletons shot out of the ground and crashed onto the surface.

Watching the two dragon skeletons radiating great might in the air, Ilex authoritatively tapped his staff in the void, and two rings of gray light wrapped around them.

The dragon skeletons instantly emitted a thunderous dragon roar, and ghostly soul flames unique to the undead flickered in their eyes, clearly having transformed into undead beings.

Seeing this, the Water Fire Dragon King's dragon spirit looked satisfied and slipped back into Tang Wulin's arms.

Tang Wulin looked at the two dragon skeletons before him, and his mouth twitched involuntarily.

"May I ask, senior, roughly how strong are these two dragon skeletons?"

Ilex pondered for a moment and replied, "After letting them soak in the spring water of the Ice-Fire Dual Eye for a while, they will likely reach Extreme Douluo-level strength."

Tang Wulin couldn't help but swallow.

"Extreme Douluo, huh? His teacher Mu En at his peak was only at Extreme Douluo strength, which means they've just added two Extreme Douluo-level fighters; who could have imagined this before coming here?"

"No wonder old Tang, before his death, reminded him to come here; this place truly is a great treasure land."

What Tang Wulin didn't know was that even old Tang hadn't expected him to be so thorough; old Tang originally thought he would at most take a few herbs, but he not only cleared all the herbs but also packed away both Dragon Kings along with their dragon souls and dragon bones.

At this moment, Tang Wulin suddenly recalled something important.

"By the way, Youyou, how many days have passed since we came here?"

【7】 He was so busy transplanting herbs that he forgot to ask the time.

He only cared about transplanting the medicinal herbs, and actually forgot to ask the time.

For him, he and Huo Yutong had been here only a few days, but they spent a long time absorbing soul rings; who knows how much time passed.

Youyou answered lazily, "Hmm... about thirteen days, what's up?"

Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong's faces instantly turned pale.

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Mentor Academy's vacation lasts only a month; counting the time they spent before arriving here, there are less than two days left before school starts.

Even Huo Yutong would have to rush at full speed in this time.

Of course, if they used the two great Dragon Kings' bones as mounts, they could return within half a day.

But that would be too ostentatious; unless absolutely necessary, it's better not to.

Tang Wulin looked at Huo Yutong.

"Yutong."

At this moment Huo Yutong's face was full of reluctance; she reluctantly nodded.

"I understand, I'll set off right now; see you next vacation."

Seeing her reluctant expression, Tang Wulin couldn't help but smile.

"You don't need to show that expression; after I finish my current tasks, I'll go to the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Mentor Academy to find you." "Really?!"

Huo Yutong's eyes widened instantly, as if they emitted light.

Tang Wulin smiled and nodded.

"Of course."

Huo Yutong quickly reached out her hand.

"Then we have an appointment."

"Yes, it's arranged."

Tang Wulin lightly slapped hands with her, and Huo Yutong's expression instantly became very bright.

She smiled with a rosy complexion, then put on her flying soul guide device and flew away toward the distance.

Watching her clad in ice armor crossing the poisonous fog and leaving, Tang Wulin's smile gradually faded.

"Well, next we have to cross the great ocean."

Just now the Water Fire Dragon King had marked the exact destination for him in the Sea of Spirit; it turned out not to be on Douluo Continent but on another continent, which surprised him and gave him a headache.

He wasn't worried about being unable to cross the ocean, since one of the soul skills the Water Dragon King gave him is well suited for sea travel.

He only feared encountering danger, as any soul beast could appear at sea.

And the two dragon skeletons had been taken away by Huo Yutong, because he had nowhere to place the Water Fire Dragon King's bones.

This made him inevitably a bit worried.

"Sigh, in the end we still have to ask the Academy for help?"

Tang Wulin sighed and left the place once called the Ice-Fire Dual Eye.

He roughly wrote a letter outlining what he would do next and sent it back to Shilake Academy.

He obscured many details; for example, the reason he wanted to go to another continent, he wrote that his bloodline longed for something on that continent, making him eager to go.

A few days after he mailed the letter to the Academy, he received a reply.

The way he received the reply exceeded his expectation.

"Xuan Lao, you..."

Looking at Xuanzi before him, Tang Wulin was dumbfounded.

Xuanzi took a sip of wine and said lightly:

"Xiaotao has already met with trouble; I can't let you get into trouble too, otherwise I'd have no face to see Elder Mu."

No definite news has come of where Ma Xiaotao disappeared to, but it is certain that she went missing during the mission to exterminate Evil Soul Masters.

That is to say, she is very likely to have been captured by the Holy Spirit Sect.

Regarding this, Xuanzi also had no other recourse; he could only have his subordinates pay more attention.

Moreover, at this time he heard that Tang Wulin wanted to go to a continent beyond the Douluo Continent, so he hurried over.

Tang Wulin is the successor personally appointed by Mu En; he cannot let this child come to harm.

Tang Wulin instantly felt relieved.

No matter how you say it, Xuanzi is a top-tier combatant of rank ninety-eight; the number of humans in this world who can surpass him does not exceed the number that can be counted on one hand; with him accompanying, the safety of this journey can at least be assured.

Tang Wulin clasped his hands toward Xuanzi.

"Then I'll trouble you to help, Xuan Lao."

By the way, the karmic-law weapon that guarantees trouble whenever Xuanzi leads a team is about to be activated~(End of chapter)
