The Ghost Emperor was puzzled while the Demon Empress was aghast. She knew that her abilities had definitely surpassed Tang Wulinâs because her God power was peerless. That being said, Tang Wulin was like quicksand. No matter how formidable her attack, it would always end up being neutralized by Tang Wulin like a rock falling into the sea.In addition, the Sea Godâs Trident posed a threat to her. She had no choice but to be cautious which was what led to that situation.
Mankindâs legion had already begun the counterattack. A large number of abyssal creatures were squeezed into the abyssal passage. The situation was getting less and less favorable for the Holy Spirit Cult and the abyssal plane.
Purple-gold radiance flickered in the Demon Empressâ eyes. All of a sudden, the purple-gold glow on her body burst outward and blasted Tang Wulin a hundred meters into the distance.
âStop!â Her loud shout echoed through the entire scene. Her incredible God power combined with her Divine Origin spiritual power and spread across the entire battlefield instantly.
Shocked, everyone paused for a moment. Their spirits were shaken as the sky took on that purple-gold hue.
At his side, Tang Wulin held the Sea Godâs Trident in his right hand upright. He pointed the Golden Dragon Spear diagonally toward the ground. He said calmly, âAre you going to acknowledge your defeat, Demon Empress?â
In her fury, the Demon Empress chuckled, âYouâve got a big mouth on you, clever boy. Had I not been trying to avoid too many losses, do you think youâd be able to live to this moment? Youâre wasting my time by continuing this skirmish. I wonder if all of you have the courage to wager so much against us.â
The Demon Empressâ words could be heard clearly across the battlefield. Even the abyssal creatures that were not well-versed in the human language could understand her intentions through her spiritual fluctuation.
With a flash of silver, the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena arrived at Tang Wulinâs side. They gazed into each otherâs eyes. Tang Wulin nodded at her gently. He suddenly felt an intense feeling of passion in his heart as he looked at her clad in the Silver Dragon Dance Qilin armor.
They were finally standing at the pinnacle of humanity. If they could achieve victory in this war, there was no one else in all the world capable of stopping them from being together.
Gu Yuena glanced at the Sea Godâs Trident in Tang Wulinâs hand and returned his nod. The Silver Dragon Spear in her grasp was glowing a brilliant white-gold hue. There was no telling how much abyssal energy it had devoured.
The rest of the elite human warriors were moving toward them as well. On the other side, the numerous monarch-ranked powerhouses of the abyssal plane and also the Holy Spirit Cultâs high-ranking personnel had all made their way to the back of the Demon Empress. Both parties formed two camps.
âHow would you like to place that enormous bet, Demon Empress?â Tang Wulin asked in a deep voice.
Gu Yuena stood by his side. Given that she was the person who had had the biggest impact on the battlefield that day, she had the right to represent humanity as well. Nevertheless, she instinctively stepped back. She stood behind Tang Wulin to signify that she was passing him the authority to negotiate with the opposing party.
In fact, Tang Wulin felt as if he was taken back to his time in Shrek Academy. She was always doing this when they were students there, did she not?
As the supreme commander of the three armies, the Divine Brush Douluo Yu Guanzhi did not advance. Instead, he dispatched the order to stop the artillery fire temporarily.
This was the first time since the start of the battle that the situation was under control. In the presence of the Golden Dragon Moon Song Tang Wulin and the Silver Dragon Dance Qilin, it seemed like the opposing sideâs Demon Empress would not be able to defeat mankind easily even if she was at rank-100. Everything was developing in a good direction. Given that the Demon Empress had been called out to stop the war, was she not just putting on a brave face while fear gripped her heart?
The Demon Empressâ ghastly cold gaze swept past every personâs face before finally returning to Tang Wulin. She said calmly, âWhat is your relationship with him?â As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at the Sea Godâs Trident in Tang Wulinâs hand.
Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment, but then he slowly raised the Sea Godâs Trident as it shimmered with dazzling radiance. He said in a deep voice, âHe is my father.â
As soon as those words were spoken, the Demon Empressâ entire body shook, and even Gu Yuena, standing by Tang Wulinâs side, looked dumbfounded.
In the crowd, the Beast God Di Tian widened his eyes in amazement.
Di Tian had recognized the Sea Godâs Trident in Tang Wulinâs hand when the young man had returned to the battlefield. Had it not been the super divine weapon, how could Tang Wulin possibly withstand the Demon Empressâ God-ranked abilities?
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Beast God met Tang San once, and the man gave him a feeling of insurmountability. It felt like Tang San could control the entire world!
Tang Wulin declaring that he was Tang Sanâs son shocked him immensely.
From what he could remember, the Beast God Di Tian seemed to recall the Sea God Tang San having a daughter in the past. She had been married to the Spirit Pagodaâs founder, the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao. She was the Dragon Butterfly Douluo Tong Wutong.
âOh right, Tang Wutong, Tang Wulin. Oh god! Why hadnât I thought of this? Tang Wulin is truly Tang Sanâs son.â
âNo wonder. No wonder he has the Golden Dragon Kingâs essence in his body.â Instantly, his mind connected everything he knew. There was a myriad of different expressions on his face.
However, very few people in the crowd on the scene understood Tang Wulinâs answer, including those from Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect. They were puzzled.
For example, there was the Qilin Douluo Tong Yu. âHis son? I thought he was Tang Ziranâs son? But why is the Demon Empress asking about Tang Ziran?â
âNo, thatâs impossible. How...how old can you be?â the Demon Empress could not keep from saying.
Tang Wulin took a deep breath. He was already standing at the peak of human achievement. He was a quasigod and he had acquired the recognition of the Sea Godâs Trident. Nothing was stopping him anymore.
âMy adoptive father told me that nothing was impossible in this world when I was very young. He also told me that the only person worthy of oneâs complete trust is oneself. The Divine Realm has vanished, but my father had to leave me the human world. Due to some special circumstances, I had to stay here and couldnât go with them when they left with the Divine Realm. Thereâs no need for you to understand the specific reasons. I am the son of the Sea God Tang San! Youâve guessed correctly. The golden trident in my hand was his divine weapon, the Sea Godâs Trident.â
His explanation was not only meant for the Demon Empress but also all his companions.
As soon as he said those words, everyone on the scene was astonished. The people on his side and their enemies all had drastic changes of expression.
It was simply unimaginable! Tang San became known to the world twenty thousand years ago! Tang Wulin claimed that he was Tang Sanâs son. How could they believe that?
Just as the Demon Empress had asked, how old was Tang Wulin?!
The Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuenaâs body swayed subconsciously, and a dash of sadness flashed past her eyes.
Immediately, the crowd started talking about this revelation, turning the battlefield into a chaotic mess. The people could not help engaging in a discussion.
The remaining six members of the Shrek Seven Monsters had extremely peculiar expressions on their faces. They were probably the ones with the closest relationship with Tang Wulin.
Although Tang Wulinâs abilities were elevating at an accelerated rate all the time, especially his Golden Dragon Kingâs abilities, everyone had always assumed that it was due to his martial soul variant.
Who would have thought that he was actually Tang Sanâs son? There was no room in his words for doubt. After all, they had been acquainted with him for so many years. Moreover, Tang Wulin was representing the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. As such, he could not possibly lie.
Tang San was the founder of the Tang Sect. He was the real Tang Sectâs first ancestor! Tang Wulun could not possibly sully his name, and it was meaningless for him to do so.
Hence, the feeling of shock triumphed over everything else at that moment.
Tang Sanâs son. These simple words had already surpassed every single moniker that Tang Wulin had had in the past.
The Demon Empress had also calmed down gradually after voicing her query. Her eyes, shimmering with a purple-gold glint, were also flickering with deeply ingrained loathing.
