Chapter 35

"Wulin, are you looking for someone?"

Noticing Tang Wulin's appearance of looking for something on the list, Wang Dong couldn't help but have a look of confusion on his face and spoke.

"Hmm."

"A friend who should have come to register, but the name didn't appear here."

Tang Wulin nodded and said in agreement.

The location of the Tang Sect, Tianxing City, was much closer to Shrek Academy than Tianxuan City; there was no reason for her to arrive later than him.

For some reason, he always had a bad premonition in his heart.

How could Tang Ya not have come? Could it be that because of his appearance, something happened? "There are still two days until formal classes start."

"Before that, I will go to Tianxing City to take a look."

A deep light flashed in his eyes, and he already had an idea in his heart, thinking to himself.

"Wulin."

"You are here too!"

Just at this moment, a clear voice rang out; seeing Jiang Nannan in the crowd notice his figure, she immediately came over and said with a giggle.

Her gaze subconsciously passed over Wang Dong beside him, as if this person didn't exist at all—except for Wulin, no second man could catch her attention.

"Yes."

"I forgot to tell you a place to meet before, and I saw that there were a lot of people here, so I came here to try my luck."

Tang Wulin smiled slightly and said softly.

"Hehe."

"I also thought I would meet you here."

Jiang Nannan also nodded, said the same thought she had as the other party, and said happily.

"Nannan, how are you getting along with your roommate?"

Tang Wulin asked tentatively; in the original work, Nannan seemed to have been the other party's roommate for several years.

If Xiao Ya had come to Shrek Academy, the two of them should have been together.

"No."

However, upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan shook her head.

"Wulin, my roommate hasn't arrived yet."

"I don't know what kind of roommate I will have yet."

Jiang Nannan said slowly with a serious expression on her face.

"As expected."

Hearing this, Tang Wulin nodded; this was undoubtedly within his expectations. So she really didn't come.

"Wulin, this is..."

Beside him, looking at the girl with extremely high beauty in front of Tang Wulin, Wang Dong couldn't help but feel a little curious and couldn't help but ask.

This little girl's beauty was truly not low; even compared to himself when not cross-dressing, she was not inferior at all. Is she Wulin's friend?

"This is Nannan, a good friend of mine from the same city and the same academy; we grew up together, and she is a very cute girl."

Tang Wulin said with a gentle smile on his face.

"Nannan, this is Wang Dong, my roommate."

Immediately, he also looked at the well-behaved girl in front of him and introduced her softly.

"Hello."

Jiang Nannan showed a shallow smile and said indifferently.

At this moment, her heart was more than just happy; the reason was none other than that Wulin had just called her cute! "Hmm, hello to you too."

"Grew up with Wulin, from the same place... Oh, that's childhood sweethearts!"

Wang Dong also smiled elegantly, and the next moment, combined with what Tang Wulin had said before, she had already thought of something in her heart, thought of a word, and immediately muttered seriously.

From the same city, grew up together, and came to Shrek from the same academy; if this isn't childhood sweethearts, then what is!

I really didn't expect that I would be able to eat the gossip of my roommate Wulin so soon? "No, no!"

"We are just good friends—"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan immediately appeared a bit flustered, her little face turned red, and she shook her head shyly, her cute face full of shyness.

The term childhood sweethearts, when used on her and Wulin, clearly wasn't very appropriate.

"Is that so?"

Wang Dong blinked and asked.

"Of course!"

Jiang Nannan immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay then."

Looking at the other party repeating it again, Wang Dong could only nod, but in her heart, she was completely skeptical about it.

If you were really just ordinary good friends, why would you be so shy, classmate Jiang Nannan? What are you nervous about!? Something is wrong, it's clearly wrong! "............"

Tang Wulin's efficiency was very high; that afternoon, not long after enrolling, he left Shrek Academy, found a carriage in the city, and embarked on the journey to Tianxing City.

Not long after, before it was dark, he arrived in this city and hurried toward the direction of the Tang Sect.

"I must see."

"What is going on..."

As a level 40 Soul Elder, Tang Wulin's speed was already very fast, not to mention he had the Soft-Bone Rabbit's teleportation soul skill; not long after, he arrived at the location of the Tang Sect in his memory.

"What is going on?" But looking from afar, Tang Wulin couldn't help but frown, quickened his pace, and couldn't help but say.

At this moment, the Tang Sect was completely different from the previous situation; the plaque that was originally not considered luxurious was now nowhere to be found, and only half of the word "Tang" vaguely visible on an extremely dilapidated wooden board next to it let him know he hadn't come to the wrong place.

Similarly, the construction of the gate courtyard in front of him had also become dilapidated, as if it had suffered some major invasion and attack; several pavilions were also broken and damaged, with no place intact.

He could feel that at this very moment, right in this sect, the auras of two Blue Silver Grass martial soul owners were becoming extremely weak; even without saying, he knew it must be the father-daughter pair, Tang Qing and Tang Ya.

"As expected..."

"Something happened!"

Tang Wulin had a serious look on his face, rushed into the Tang Sect instantly, and couldn't help but mutter.

Not long after, when he arrived at the most spacious open space in the sect, the scene in front of him truly let him take it all in.

At this moment, Tang Qing was being held by an old man with a sturdy build, and beside him, five soul rings—two yellow, two purple, one black—were showing dazzling light, and the powerful soul power of level 56 was revealed at a glance.

This was actually a five-ring Soul King powerhouse; it was no wonder Tang Qing couldn't do anything to him. Even he, who wasn't even a Soul King, how could he beat a dignified level 56 Soul King powerhouse!

And Tang Ya was also half-fallen on the ground, weak and powerless, covered in blood, her spirited face full of gnashing teeth, and her gaze toward the old man was full of hatred.

"Tang Qing."

"I'll tell you one more time, this land, our Iron Blood Sect wants it."

"I didn't expect that someone as trashy as you would have such a beautiful daughter; what a pity."

The old man's face was full of contempt, looking at this guy who was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and said in a cold voice.

And when Tang Ya was mentioned, a bit of greed inevitably appeared on his face.

"This property belongs to our Tang Sect..."

Tang Qing was pinched until he couldn't breathe, gritted his teeth, spoke with difficulty, and had a look of death on his face, but when mentioning his daughter, his face couldn't help but become a bit more ferocious.

"Tie Er!"

"If you dare to touch a single hair on my daughter, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."

The roar came from his mouth, but he had already used up his last bit of strength.

"Hehehe, your land plaque, the strongest is only at the Soul Ancestor realm, and you deserve to own this territory? You don't even look to see if you have the ability."

"As for not letting me go even as a ghost, you don't even have that ability while alive; I can't even imagine how weak you will be after you die."

Hearing this, the old man's face was full of mockery, and he mocked mercilessly.

"You..."

Hearing this, Tang Qing only felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart; what the other party said was not unreasonable. Facing the occupation of the Iron Blood Sect, they had no power to fight back at all.

As a sect that had risen in Tianxing City in the past few decades, the Iron Blood Sect already had a powerhouse at the Soul Emperor realm and over a hundred disciples; although it was a small sect, it was not something the current Tang Sect could rival.

At this moment, his heart was full of self-blame. A long time ago, Wulin had suggested that he leave Tianxing City and go to another small city to develop, and had strongly recommended Tianxuan City, but he hadn't listened.

If he had chosen that path back then, would this situation not have happened...

Before he had time to think more, the next moment, under the huge pressure, he, exhausted, could no longer hold on and fainted.

"Father—"

Beside him, looking at the situation in front of her, Tang Ya, whose soul power had long been exhausted, couldn't help the other party, shed a few lines of tears helplessly, clenched her fists, and could only say sadly.

"Now only you are left."

"Little girl."

Sweeping his gaze toward Tang Ya's direction, Tie Er had a lewd smile on his face and spoke.

"..."

Facing the person who came, how could Tang Ya not see the other party's ill intentions? Her face, ashen with despair, carried hatred, and a tenacious Blue Silver Grass appeared in her palm, with no intention of retreating.

At this time, she would also be like her father, fighting to the end. Her father had already been defeated by the other party, and she, even if she committed suicide, would absolutely not let the other party do anything bad.

"At this time."

"If only he were here."

At this critical moment of life and death, a handsome figure flashed in Tang Ya's heart, her face was in a daze, and she couldn't help but mutter.

"With him here, our sect would definitely be able to absorb a lot of fresh power, so why would we be afraid of this small Iron Blood Sect..."

If only Wulin had been here all along.

With him here, the Tang Sect would definitely develop into achievements far exceeding before, leading the Tang Sect to become stronger and stronger, and would never encounter this situation of being hunted by other sects; even if facing it, they would definitely not lose their footing.

With him here, he would definitely know what to do!

But she also knew that with his extremely strong talent and excellent character, he was destined not to be in her sect.

"It's just a pity."

"I can't see you."

Tang Ya said with a sigh, with a sense of melancholy in her heart.

"We agreed to go to Shrek Academy together."

"I am going to break my promise."

——————————

"I think."

"I seem to have come a bit late."

At this time, a gentle and powerful hand didn't know when it had pressed on Tang Ya's shoulder, and before she could respond, a gentle male voice had already spoken.

"But it seems..."

"I made it in time."
