With that in mind, a slightly forlorn look appeared on Qiangu Dongfeng's face. If only his son were still alive. Qiangu Zhangting's father had perished on a scouting mission in a small plane. At the time, the entire plane had collapsed, so even Qiangu Dongfeng had been powerless to save him. Qiangu Zhangting's mother committed suicide from grief, thereby leaving Qiangu Zhanting as an orphan.

This was something that had always pained Qiangu Dongfeng, and it made him even more determined to find that world. Only after reaching that level would he truly be able to govern his own fate and never have to watch anyone close to him die again. In order to achieve this goal, he was willing to make any sacrifice without any hesitation.

Right as Gu Yuena left the rostrum and was about to return to her own living quarters, her brows suddenly furrowed slightly as if she had sensed something, and she laid a hand onto her own chest.

She could clearly feel the scorching heat from the golden scale in front of her chest, indicating that he was in danger!

......

High up in the air, the massive Sky Azure Bull Python quickly shrank down to become a middle-aged man amid a flash of azure light.

The middle-aged man was very burly and imposing with a head of long azure hair, he was holding Tang Wulin and Lan Fuozi, one in each hand.

The Titan Giant Ape also quickly shrank into a musclebound pillar of a man, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Did I see that right? Did this kid just use the golden trident?

"

The azure-haired man's brows were also tightly furrowed as he replied,

"I'm not sure. His aura is very chaotic; he possesses a dragon clan aura of a very high caliber that even has a suppressive effect on my bloodline to a certain extent. However, I'm not technically a member of the dragon clan, so the effect wasn't very pronounced.

"

He laid Tang Wulin and Lan Fuozi onto the ground as he spoke, then squatted down and quickly patted up and down Tang Wulin's body, injecting bursts of gentle azure light into his body before assessing the information reciprocated back to him.

"This kid's body is downright inhuman; he was struck by a direct swat of your tail but shook it off like it was nothing! In terms of physical constitution alone, he can probably match us; what a little freak!

" the muscular man chuckled.

"The aura of his golden trident was far more feeble than the one used by Tang San, but it really does possess an aura of the same nature,

" the azure-haired man mused,

"On top of that, his blood essence is so abundant that he's more like us soul beasts than a human. The dragon-type aura within his body is very pronounced, and there's a type of deranged aura fluctuations within his body that even I can't help but feel fearful toward; he's definitely a very strange case!

"

"Could it be that he's one of Tang San's descendants?

" the muscular man asked.

"We'll have to ask him to find out,

" the azure-haired man said as he patted Tang Wulin's cheek, injecting a burst of gentle azure light into his head.

Tang Wulin shuddered as he gradually awakened, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he was greeted by the sight of a pair of unfamiliar, imposing men.

He reflexively tried to spring to his feet, only to find that his body was completely immobilized.

"Who are you?

" Tang Wulin asked with a wary expression.

The muscular man chuckled,

"Have you not received enough of a beating yet? If you don't want to die, then answer our questions!

"

Tang Wulin faltered slightly upon hearing this before asking,

"Are you the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape?

"

He was still alive, so all was not lost. However, what was quite perplexing to him was that the power his father had left within his body hadn't been activated, even though he was clearly in a life-threatening situation.

However, the thought had only just occurred to him before he immediately repressed it. Since when had he started to rely on others? He had to become more powerful himself!

His battles against Infernal King Douluo Harosha and Beast God Di Tian had been extremely crushing experiences, and if it weren't for the immense willpower he had honed during his training on the demonic island, he would've most likely fallen into a depression already.

"Hehe, so you've heard of us; we won't be able to let you leave alive now,

" the muscular man chuckled.

At this point, Tang Wulin had already calmed down.

"If you wanted to kill me, then I would already be dead. You woke me up because you have something to ask me, right? Go ahead.

"

The Sky Azure Bull Python was rather surprised to hear this.

"You're much more willing to cooperate than I expected!

"

Tang Wulin replied in an indifferent manner,

"Why wouldn't I cooperate when the alternative would be death? Besides, I have no secrets that I can't reveal to you; I'm a human while you two are soul beasts, so my secrets won't be of any use to you anyway.

"

The Sky Azure Bull Python chuckled,

"Very good! It's always a lot easier speaking to intelligent people. Tell me your name and affiliations.

"

Tang Wulin replied,

"My name is Tang Wulin; I come from Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect.

"

"Tang Wulin?

" The Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape immediately exchanged a glance upon hearing this.

"Which three characters is your name comprised of?

" the Titan Giant Ape asked in a slightly urgent manner.

Tang Wulin's heart stirred slightly at the sight of his urgent display, and he replied,

"Tang as in Tang San, Wu as in Xiao Wu, and Lin as in Qilin.

"

The Titan Giant Ape asked,

"You know of Tang San and Xiao Wu?

"

Tang Wulin replied,

"Who doesn't? Not only is Tang San the founder of our Tang Sect, both Tang San and Xiao Wu are legends of the human race.

"

The Sky Azure Bull Python asked,

"How are you related to them?

"

Tang Wulin hesitated momentarily and didn't reply right away. He had a feeling he already knew who these two men were, and if he weren't mistaken about that, then he shouldn't be in any danger anymore.

Right as he was about to reply, the entire space suddenly warped slightly.

The Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape looked up in unison, just in time to see a beam of silver light descend from the heavens, accompanied by a deep, rumbling voice.

"I'm taking this man with me.

"

As soon as the voice trailed off, a rift suddenly appeared in the air, following which a giant silver claw appeared before reaching downward.

A beam of silver light instantly appeared around Tang Wulin, enveloping his entire body.

"Stop!

" the Sky Azure Bull Python yelled as he instantly rose up into the air, unleashing a giant azure claw to oppose the silver claw.

The entire space tremored violently, and rainbow-light rippled forth from the surface of the silver claw, gradually overwhelming the azure light being released by the claw of the Sky Azure Bull Python.

The Titan Giant Ape harrumphed coldly as he reverted back to his massive ape form before launching a fist upward; it was none other than the same attack that Tang Wulin had been completely powerless against earlier.
