Chapter 540

That day, Lingbing Square was completely drowned in a sea of people.

Although normally, as one of the most densely populated places in Shileke Cheng, Lingbing Square has always been crowded, but compared with today's momentum, the past flow of people was obviously still too mild.

The reason for this scene is simple: today is the wedding of the renowned Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yutong and the new continent's strongest, the Dragon King Douluo Tang Wulin, and Spirit Ice Plaza is exactly where their wedding is being held.

Countless people had booked rooms in Shrek City hotels months in advance, just for today.

Tang Wulin sat in the room, fidgeting uneasily with his tie, looking unsettled.

Tang Ziran saw his nervous look and couldn't help laughing.

All right, don't be so nervous, your face is all scrunched up—such a handsome face is going to be ruined.

Tang Wulin twitched the corner of his mouth.

Hmm……

"Cough cough cough."

"I don't know why he did that, but anyway, after that incident, my mother died and I became an orphan." "I went from being a young master to an orphan overnight."

"Oh?"

Tang Ziran smiled with relief.

"Back when we first met, our relationship wasn't very harmonious; mainly, my personality back then wasn't great, and I kept making your mother angry."

"So to get away from him, I decided to leave the Star Net Continent and head to the Sun Moon Federation."

Tang Wulin couldn't help but listen intently.

"It's about time; let's go out—we can't keep all these people waiting outside."

He had never heard these stories from Tang Ziran before, and from his tone, Tang Wulin sensed deep, sincere emotion.

"Yes."

I really didn't expect that.

Tang Ziran pondered for a moment, then broke into a bright smile.

"I confessed my feelings to her; honestly, the nervousness back then is something I never want to experience again in this life, but the excitement after success is one of my life's most precious treasures."

"Although I've wandered all my life, I don't feel unfortunate now, and that's all thanks to Lang Yue."

Tang Wulin felt somewhat helpless.

"I'm not nervous about the scene."

"It was then that I met your mother."

"Hehe, looking back, I was actually quite a domineering kid when I was little."

Tang Ziran gave a dry cough, then laughed heartily: "Well, one thing at a time—I and your mother are just an ordinary little couple; how could we compare to you? You've been through so many storms, you should already be used to such big scenes."

He actually didn't know much about Tang Ziran and Lang Yue's past; he only knew that whenever Tang Ziran mentioned his mother as a child, his expression would become extremely grim and unpleasant. After many times, Tang Wulin realized that talk of the grandmother was a taboo in the family, so he stopped asking.

"You also know what happened after that—we got married, worked hard together, and later, because of our invention, we attracted the attention of the Spirit Pagoda, fled to Aolai City, and lived in seclusion."

"A person with incredibly strong power, looking like a monster, burst into our home and launched a slaughter and destruction."

Although not as great as him, it was still far more exciting than an ordinary person.

"All right, today is a special day, so let me tell you the story of me and your mother."

"But all of this changed suddenly overnight." "Hmm."

"Good."

So why did he leave his homeland?

"Dad..."

Tang Wulin had always thought Tang Ziran was a native of the Federation.

He never imagined that his ordinary, plain father had once experienced such a tumultuous and grand past.

"Although our family back then had a huge gap compared to the truly top soul master clans, in the Star Net Empire we were doing quite well, and almost everything I wanted could be satisfied by my family."

"Never mind, Dad, just say whatever you like—preferably something that will ease my nervousness."

"It was also during this process that I fell in love with her, hoping to give her happiness."

Tang Ziran's following words told him the answer.

"Like me, your mother is also an orphan, but unlike me, she was an orphan from birth, and in her life memories she never received any care from her parents."

Now Tang Wulin was genuinely interested.

Tang Ziran got up, came to Tang Wulin's side, placed his hand on his shoulder, and said softly: "I won't say any more unnecessary words; Dad knows you surely understand everything, and I believe you will never let me down. I just ask you one thing: Huo Yutong is a good girl—do you have the confidence to make her happy?"

"Ah?"

Tang Ziran looked at Tang Wulin, his eyes full of relief.

Tang Ziran showed a gentle smile and said slowly: "Tang Wulin, you might not have expected this, but I am actually a person of the Star Net Empire."

This was apparently the first time, in my impression, that Tang Ziran wanted to talk about his past.

Saying this, Tang Ziran's gaze softened considerably.

He sighed and said:

"Tang Wulin, do you know? You are my greatest pride. In my life, the wisest thing I've done was marrying your mother; the second wisest was choosing to raise you, whom I picked up, to adulthood. Although I missed ten years of your time, seeing you grow to this point, establishing a family and career, I am truly delighted."

"Although it's said that shortly after that, the monster-like being turned himself in to the government, his face still often appears in my dreams, like a nightmare, tightly haunting me."

"Dad, don't belittle me; Mom told me that when you got married, you weren't any better than me."

He glanced at the clock on the wall, lightly patted Tang Wulin's shoulder, made a thumbs-up gesture, and pointed toward the door.

"But perhaps because I had no one to rely on around me, or perhaps because Lang Yue influenced me, I gradually let go of my bad habits and became much more mature."

"Actually, when I was a child, my family situation was different from now; it was quite well-off, almost like a young master."

Tang Wulin nodded heavily.

Tang Wulin nodded lightly.

What is truly amazing is that, after listening to his father's story, he now really no longer feels nervous.

Was he startled by Tang Ziran's story? Or moved by the emotions contained in his words? Tang Wulin didn't know; he only knew that his father had placed great trust and expectations upon him, and now it was time for him to live up to those expectations.

He got up, went to the door, pushed open the door that separated him from the outside world, and walked toward a new stage in life.
