Douluo: The Holy Radiance of the Dragon King

Chapter 222 Tang Wulin: I am not the son of the Sea God, nor will I return to the Tang Sect.

"Whether you invite him or not is up to you, Shrek is too ashamed to let him come back."

Yun Ming had a Zen-like demeanor. He had already heard Guan Yue talk about this, but he chose to pretend he hadn't heard it, since Tang San's consciousness was already gone anyway.

Despite being surprised, if Tang San really created the passage from the Abyss Plane to the Douluo Plane, then it's fine if the ancestor doesn't acknowledge it.

Guan Yue still said, "I'll listen to my senior brother."

Cao Dezhi's forehead creased with black lines, and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.

Are you two deliberately trying to provoke me? Believe me or not, I'll just quit too.

When our two organizations both shut down, there's no need for further attacks; it will be over from within.

Thinking this way, Cao Dezhi's rationality quickly overwhelmed his emotions. After a moment of thought, he said, "Right now, our Tang Clan must do everything we can to bring him back. But Feng Zaixing is as clever as a ghost, and it's impossible to fool him with words. The best way is to wait for the people from the Spirit Pagoda to come, rescue all the students from the Spirit Pagoda Academy first, and then we can negotiate with the Spirit Pagoda."

Yun Ming nodded.

Guan Yue nodded in agreement.

Zang Xin was furious and said irritably, "Judging from this, we really need to deal with that idiot Cai Yue'er as soon as possible. Yun Ming, if you can't bring yourself to do it, you might as well announce to the public that she's gone mad and let that idiot provoke the Federation on her own."

"I believe Feng Zaixing would be more than happy to get rid of her."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ming's expression turned serious, and he began to consider the feasibility of doing so. After a moment, he nodded and said, "It should be announced like this: she was controlled by the Ghost Emperor and used the evil energy of the Holy Spirit Cult to ambush Ya Li. What else could it be but madness?"

"Feng Zaixing won't come to kill him anytime soon. He probably hopes I'll clean up his own mess. But I'll take some action later."

Guan Yue said, "Senior brother is right."

Seeing that this part had passed, Cao Dezhi continued, "Long Yeyue is dead. What happened to her belongings? Did she leave behind the Vast Ocean Universe Cover?"

Guan Yue shook her head and said, "Feng Zaixing returned all of Long Yeyue's other belongings to me, but he kept the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. He said that it might contain Tang San's divine consciousness, and it must be sealed in the Federation to prevent it from harming Douluo Star again."

Yun Ming sighed, resting his chin on his hands, and said, "Although this kid forcibly seized the artifact of my Sea God Pavilion, Tang San's actions last night were too heinous. I have no grounds for argument, and I also have to take care of Ya Li, so I don't have time to go find him."

Cao Dezhi's forehead creased with annoyance. He said irritably, "I'm afraid it's not that you feel you don't have time to see him, but that you don't want to, right? When exactly did you get involved with him?"

Yun Ming said frankly, "It was when he helped me wake Ya Li up last time."

Cao Dezhi was speechless for a moment, then sighed, a look of "I knew it" on his face:

He knew that Yun Ming, with his love-struck mind, would lose all rationality when it came to Ya Li. Feng Zaixing could save Ya Li, but expecting Yun Ming to exert all his strength in the future was absolutely impossible.

"I really have to remind you, we didn't succeed last night, and we may never have another chance."

Cao Dezhi's voice was calm, but his tone was extremely low, and his expression was extremely solemn.

"Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. Perhaps in a few years, he will destroy both of our forces."

Yun Ming nodded, then shook his head and said, "If I had to do it again, I would kill Long Yeyue and the Ghost Emperor, even if I didn't cooperate with them."

"Old Cao, I had no choice. Long Yeyue has gone too far in bullying me, and I have a deep-seated hatred for the Ghost Emperor."

Cao Dezhi was so angry he was speechless. He smiled, got up, and left.

Zang Xin smiled helplessly and changed the subject, saying, "I think those few Heavenly Kings from Monster Academy are not bad. After the competition is over, I will secretly take them back to the mainland to seek opportunities at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye."

Yun Ming and Guan Yue remained noncommittal, indicating that they had no objection whatsoever.

It was evening.

When Feng Zaixing entered the Spirit Pagoda branch in Xingluo City for the second time, the scene he saw was completely different from the last time.

Inside the prison, the experts from the Spirit Pagoda headquarters and the geniuses from the Spirit Pagoda Academy were packed head to head and foot to foot in extremely harsh living conditions, with occasional cries of exhaustion, pain, and innocence.

Feng Zaixing's gaze settled on Tang Wulin, who was still fast asleep, and he said to Xie Xie beside him, "I need to talk to him. Please wake him up for me."

-

Upon seeing that it was Feng Zaixing, Xie Xie immediately began to wail and cry out, "Great God, we're innocent!"

Feng Zaixing nodded and said, "I know you weren't involved in those dirty deeds, but you were all arrested and locked up by the dean. It's not appropriate to release you now."

"Once the representatives from the Spirit Pagoda arrive, you students will be able to leave; it's not that we can't let you go out alone, but it's pointless for you to come out, it's just like you've been isolated for nothing."

Xie Xie finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked疑惑地问道, "Then why did you look for Wu Lin?"

Feng Zaixing said, "His background is special, so he can be released early. The Tang Clan will come knocking on our door soon to take him away."

Xie Xie: "—"

God, could you come up with a better reason? I grew up with Wu Lin since I was a child, how come I don't know anything about his special background? And the Tang Sect came to take him away, but we were all kicked out by the Tang Sect.

But he wisely didn't confront Feng Zaixing head-on; instead, he gently shook Tang Wulin awake.

A faint smile appeared on Feng Zaixing's lips.

A moment later, in the reception room of a spirit transmission tower.

Feng Zaixing recounted everything that had happened the previous night, and slowly said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are Tang San's biological son by blood, and Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tang Wutong is probably your sister."

Tang Wulin looked dazed, still finding it hard to accept the fact: "Impossible! My martial soul is so weak, how could I be the son of the Sea God Tang San? And if he really did so many bad things, helping an alien plane invade Douluo Star, how could it be the story I've heard since I was a child?"

"Tang San, the Sea God—could the old Tang speaking in my mind be the divine consciousness of Tang San, the Sea God?"

Feng Zaixing said calmly, "Most major forces tend to promote their own ancestors. I can tell you that whether it's Tang San's group of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils or Huo Yuhao's group of the second generation of legendary Seven Devils, they all have their own problems when you examine them closely."

"But Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, and Spirit Pagoda all avoid talking about it and only promote their contributions, even fabricating unfounded legendary experiences; my Body Sect doesn't promote its ancestors much, but there are quite a few people whose ancestors had problems."

Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment. Is this the world of top powers?

At this moment, Feng Zaixing continued, "You have sealed within you the essence of the energy of a Golden Dragon King who escaped from the God Realm. There are eighteen layers of seals, and fourteen of them have now been broken."

"The existence of the Golden Dragon King suppressed your Blue Silver Grass's life attribute talent; otherwise, you should have been able to inherit Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor and awaken the Blue Silver Domain."

"However, now that some of the Golden Dragon King's energy has leaked out, your martial soul has benefited, and you've probably felt it too, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin lowered his head and released his martial soul, and one after another, supple vines with small golden snake patterns on their surface rose from the ground.

"No wonder I'm so sleepy, it must be because of this —"

He looked up at Feng Zaixing and asked, "So what should I do next?"

Feng Zaixing said, "This Golden Dragon King Seal is a time bomb with both danger and opportunity. The danger lies in the fact that the Golden Dragon King sealed inside can kill you at any time, while the opportunity lies in absorbing the essence of the seal, which will enhance your strength."

"Right now, the last four seals on this thing are all extraordinary, and I don't have time to break them for the time being; it will also be difficult for you to break them, because your body simply cannot withstand them; but you don't need to worry about the seals endangering your life for the next twenty years."

Tang Wulin was startled and said, "This thing can be deadly? You'd better get rid of it quickly, it's too dangerous, I still need to find my mom and dad."

Feng Zaixing shook his head and said, "It's not that easy, but it's not that difficult either. The Golden Dragon King can hardly cause trouble now. My actions last night should have frightened him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Golden Dragon King within Tang Wulin sneezed violently, cursing inwardly, "Yes, yes, yes, with you absorbing my essence like that, treating it as energy to boost your strength, how come you didn't burst from being overeaten!"

Tang Wulin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'm relieved."

Feng Zaixing nodded slightly and continued, "After the Tang Clan learns of your background, they may soon come to our door and ask you to return."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin remained silent for a long time, then shook his head and smiled, saying in a desolate tone, "I've already been kicked out, what's the point of going back? And what identity would I have to go back with? I've never known I was some kind of Sea God's Son."

Feng Zaixing laughed and said, "Then it's up to you. But it won't be difficult for you to find your adoptive parents. They are currently working in a classified federal location."

Tang Wulin's expression turned anxious, and he leaned forward, asking, "Do you know where my mom and dad are?"

Feng Zaixing nodded and said, "In order to get you some living expenses, they agreed to help some people in the Spirit Pagoda research medicine. At that time, the Spirit Pagoda had already colluded with evil spirit masters."

"My people tracked down the evil spirit masters and found that the Spirit Pagoda was trying to send a cargo ship full of people to the Douling Empire. They intercepted the ship, and your parents were among them."

"Considering that the matter involves the Spirit Tower and is of great importance, releasing them back could lead to unforeseen consequences. Therefore, I have arranged for them to work undercover within the Federation. Apart from not being able to contact the outside world, everything else remains the same."

"I have now forced the Spirit Pagoda Master, Qian Gu Dongfeng, to take responsibility for this and leveled the faction that colluded with evil spirit masters within their ranks. So congratulations, you will be able to see your adoptive parents when you return."

Tang Wulin gasped sharply, grabbed Feng Zaixing's hand, and thanked him repeatedly with great excitement.

"Thank you, thank you for saving my parents. No wonder the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult wanted to kill you—uh, senior brother, you know me, I'm not good with words, that's not what I meant."

Tang Wulin gave an innocent, awkward smile. Feng Zaixing, too lazy to argue with him over such a trivial matter, chuckled and said, "You're so close to your adoptive parents, do you not want to acknowledge your relationship with Tang San anymore?"

Tang Wulin pondered for a moment, then nodded emphatically and said in a deep voice, "Perhaps I was born in the God Realm, and I don't know why he would throw me down here."

However, if, like the Dragon Butterfly Douluo mentioned by his senior brother, he relies on absorbing all of Huo Yuhao's opportunities to enhance his strength, that would be far too pathetic.

He smiled brightly, spread his hands and said, "I grew up with my parents and I'm used to being a child from an ordinary family. I'm not worthy of being the son of a god-king. When I was little, I said I would buy my parents a car and take them to see all over the Federation."

"Now I have the ability, but they are gone. What I want to do most now is to go back to them. It's better not to go back to the Tang Sect."

In short: I, Tang Wulin, am not the son of the Sea God, and I will not return to the Tang Sect.
