Chapter 950 - 950 – Tang Wulin and Lan Xuanyu



950 – Tang Wulin and Lan Xuanyu
TL: BluVerse

Ying Luohong smiled and said, “This isn’t urgent. Let’s wait for the academy’s notice. There’s something else I need to inform you about. Because the completion of this Skyfighter mission is of great significance to the Federation, and since you’re about to join the military, the military has decided to promote you exceptionally. Based on the military rank corresponding to your Skyfighter mission points, you’ll be promoted by two additional ranks. After joining the army, you’ll still be in charge of commanding your classmates.”

“Understood.” Lan Xuanyu didn’t have many thoughts about the military rank. It didn’t really matter to him. After all, they weren’t actually enlisting in the army; they were just going for training, and after that, they would return to the academy.

“Your classmates will also be returning soon. Talk to them and make some preparations. Wait for the academy’s notice.”

“Yes.”

After leaving Ying Luohong’s office, Lan Xuanyu appeared to be deep in thought. Bai Xiuxiu nudged his shoulder, “What are you thinking about?”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “Nothing. I just think that if we join the military this time, the missions we need to complete might be very challenging. Otherwise, Dean Ying wouldn’t have said that this would count as our Shrek Seven Monsters assessment training.”

Bai Xiuxiu asked in confusion, “It won’t be too dangerous, right? After all, it’s a real war. If they put us in a dangerous situation…”

Lan Xuanyu replied, “It’s hard to say. The key is that the academy can’t control the war, and on the battlefield, anything can happen. We need to be well-prepared. The outer courtyard is about to start the new term, and the academy won’t let us waste much time. We’ll probably be setting off soon. We’d better prepare in advance.”

“Alright. You’re in charge of that. Everyone trusts you.”

Lan Xuanyu nodded, then raised his wrist and dialed Uncle Le’s soul communicator number. They had already returned, and the person he most wanted to see right now was Uncle Le, especially after basically confirming their relationship.

The call rang for a long time before it was finally answered.

“Uncle Le, I’m back. Am I disturbing your seclusion?” Lan Xuanyu asked softly.

Tang Wulin’s voice came from the other side, “It’s fine. I knew you were back. Wait for me in your dormitory, I’ll come to find you.”

Hearing that he was coming to see him, Lan Xuanyu’s heart tightened, “Okay.”

“Uncle Le said he’s coming to my dormitory,” Lan Xuanyu told Bai Xiuxiu beside him.

Bai Xiuxiu nodded, held his hand, and said, “Don’t worry, everything will be fine. I’ll go back to my dormitory to tidy up a bit too. I haven’t stayed there for a long time. You should go quickly.”

The relationship between Lan Xuanyu and Tang Wulin had become clear by now. After their identities were confirmed, this was their first time meeting alone, so naturally, Bai Xiuxiu wouldn’t get involved.

“Alright.”

Returning to his dormitory, the familiar place, even the scent was familiar. The last time he left, it was with Uncle Le, going to rescue Nana.

The problem had already been resolved, but now, facing the once Uncle Le, now the Dragon King Douluo Tang Wulin, Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but feel nervous. He wasn’t sure how to face him.

In a flash of golden light, Tang Wulin appeared beside Lan Xuanyu as if out of thin air. This time, there wasn’t even a visible process of tearing through the space; he was just suddenly there.

His blue hair flowed down his back, and he wore a simple white outfit. His eyes showed signs of fatigue, and there was a hint of weariness in his expression. His face also appeared slightly pale.

“Uncle Le, are you alright?” Seeing his condition, Lan Xuanyu was startled, his previous nervousness vanishing. He quickly asked with concern.

Tang Wulin shook his head and smiled, “I’m fine. There were just some side effects after my recent breakthrough. I’ll need to go into seclusion for a long time after this. Focus on your studies. I also heard about you going to the military. It’s a good opportunity for growth. Back in the day, I also served in the military.”

“You served in the military too?” Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.

Tang Wulin smiled and nodded, “Yes! I even became a general.”

Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred, and he asked, “Have you remembered things from the past?”

Tang Wulin nodded, then shook his head, “I can only remember parts of it, but the more I recall, the more my head hurts, so I try not to think too much. But I do remember the important things.”

As he spoke, his gaze fell on the ring on Lan Xuanyu’s right thumb, “Like this ring on your hand. It was once the weapon of the Abyssal Sage King, which we seized after we defeated the Abyssal Plane. The Heavenly Saint Abyssal Halberd is considered a super divine weapon, one of only two known on the Douluo Continent. Back then, I forged it into a ring to propose to your mother. But I don’t know why it ended up on your hand.”

Lan Xuanyu’s heart trembled slightly; he could sense that Uncle Le seemed to want to tell him something, but he couldn’t quite put it into words. It was as if he was also hesitant to ask about the past.

Tang Wulin sighed softly, “The past is behind us now, and the greatest troubles we once faced no longer exist. That’s really good. Don’t worry, your teacher Nana’s vital signs are stable. I can sense that she’s conscious and gradually recovering. Although she was severely injured this time, the method she’s chosen for recovery requires time. In the Eternal Sky City, with the life energy of the Eternal Tree nourishing her, she will definitely recover. I won’t go anywhere; I’ll stay by her side.”

“You focus on what you need to do and don’t worry about us. We’ll be fine, waiting for you at the academy. You’re at a critical time for your growth, and when you return, we’ll be there to protect you during your breakthroughs. There shouldn’t be any problems.”

“Alright. Uncle Le, please take care of yourself too,” Lan Xuanyu said.

“Don’t worry, for your sake, I won’t let anything happen to me,” Tang Wulin smiled slightly. “I have to go back now; I can’t leave her alone. Take care, and I wish you all the best. Remember, no matter how difficult the challenges you face, once you overcome them, a whole new world will open up to you.”

After speaking, he took two steps forward, opened his arms, and gave Lan Xuanyu a big hug.

Lan Xuanyu’s body trembled slightly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, the words never came out.

Tang Wulin patted his back, and in the next moment, he transformed into a beam of golden light, disappearing right in front of Lan Xuanyu.

As the golden light faded away, a sense of loss welled up in Lan Xuanyu’s heart. Before Tang Wulin arrived, he had felt that he was ready, but actually seeing him left his emotions in turmoil.

He thought that perhaps, in the future, he would have two names: Lan Xuanyu and Tang Xuanyu.

Tang Wulin had left, and it took Lan Xuanyu a while to calm down. He first called Bai Xiuxiu to tell her that Teacher Nana was fine.

He had just ended the call with Bai Xiuxiu when another call came in.

“Boss, wahoo! You’re back! Did you know? All of us brothers made it into the Inner Court together. The whole class! It’s awesome! Hahaha!”

The only person who could laugh so arrogantly was Qian Lei.

Lan Xuanyu replied, “I know, the dean just told me. Are you all back?”

Qian Lei said, “Almost everyone is back, and a lot of people never left in the first place. We’ve all been waiting for the results! Everyone was really worried about how we’d do this time, especially Old Bing and the others. They were on the edge, either making it into the Inner Court or not. But this time, it turned out great—everyone’s happy.”

Lan Xuanyu smiled, “Yeah! Everyone’s happy, and we don’t have to be separated. But we might be going to the military for some training soon.”
