"Take you home?" Langya was stunned. "You..."
"Senior, there's no time to say so much. Take this. I've already imprinted all the information. You can read it at your leisure later!" Yuwen Tuo raised his right hand, and the Xuanyuan Sword appeared in his grasp. He directly threw it towards Langya.
Langya reached out and caught it. Since this was already the spiritual sea of the soul space, he could now grasp the Xuanyuan Sword.
The moment he gripped the hilt, he immediately felt that something was off with the sword. "This... this sword, it's you yourself. This is truly an essence martial soul!"
As expected of a high-ranking member of the Body Sect, although Langya's strength was far inferior to that of the Ice Empress, his understanding of essence martial souls far surpassed hers. The moment he gripped the sword, he knew it was not a tool martial soul.
"Langya, let go of me!"
Just at this moment, in the outside real world, a furious roar sounded. Since the Gluttony Douluo had not yet returned, the person who appeared was naturally the Beast King, Gong Changlong.
His powerful soul power immediately pushed Yu Tao and Yuwen Tuo apart.
"So it's the renowned Beast King!" Yu Tao had no fear of Gong Changlong. Although he was only a Soul Douluo, he was a Soul Douluo whose essence martial soul had undergone a second awakening.
As long as he and Langya joined forces,
If they truly fought, they would not be weaker than an ordinary Titled Douluo like Gong Changlong.
At this moment, Langya, who had come back to his senses, quickly stepped between Yu Tao and Gong Changlong. "Yu Tao, calm down. This is the Star Luo Empire's territory after all. It's not suitable for a fight."
"Young Master, Young Lady, since Huo Yuhao is temporarily unwilling to join our sect, let's let him leave for now. Anyway, there's still a long time until the end of the competition. It's better to let him think it over carefully first."
Wina looked at Langya with some surprise. Langya's strength was not the strongest in the Body Sect, but his temper was the closest to their sect master's. When did he become so agreeable?
"Everything will be as Mister Langya wishes." Despite her confusion, Wina would not undermine her own people at this moment.
"Many thanks! Farewell!" Although Zhou Yi was also puzzled why the Body Sect suddenly wasn't so overbearing, she was too lazy to pursue it. She seized the opportunity to leave, merely thinking they were wary of Gong Changlong and thus unwilling to act.
"Body Sect members, listen closely. Shrek is not like other forces. We do not fear you. Don't even think about our students again," Gong Changlong threatened.
If it were peacetime, Langya, with his fiery temper, would inevitably have a fight with Gong Changlong, but now he had more important matters.
"Beast King, there's never anything our Body Sect wants that we don't get. Huo Yuhao, go back and think carefully," Langya pointed to the door. "Now, please!"
"Hmph, let's go!" Gong Changlong flung his hand, leading everyone out of Wina's room.
Huo Yuhao suddenly walked up to Yuwen Tuo and said, "Classmate Yuwen, thank you just now."
Yuwen Tuo had just blocked Yu Tao's arm, and he thought it was to save him.
Yuwen Tuo didn't bother to explain anything, nodded, and left.
Wang Dong said, "It seems this guy, though very arrogant, isn't a bad person."
"Tuo Tuo wasn't a bad person to begin with; it was always you all who were bullying and isolating him." Xiao Xiao pouted. She knew they would be leaving Shrek soon, so she no longer bothered with false politeness.
After speaking, she quickly jogged to catch up with Yuwen Tuo.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. It was indeed true. Ever since Yuwen Tuo joined the Shrek Seven Monsters, none of them, except Xiao Xiao and Ling Luochen, had really spoken to him, nor had they ever trained together. Could they really blame him for not being close to them?
Inside the room, Wina and the others voiced their doubts. Especially the hot-tempered Yu Tao, who directly questioned: "Langya, what's wrong with you? Are you really scared of that Beast King? A mere Level 93 Titled Douluo, our second awakened essence martial souls might not even lose to him."
"Mister Yu Tao, please don't be angry. I believe Mister Langya did this for his own reasons, right? Is it related to that Yuwen Tuo?" Though Wina was young, she was calm and intelligent. Langya's change happened right after he met Yuwen Tuo's gaze.
Long Aotian asked, "Mister Langya, what's so strange about that Yuwen Tuo?"
"I let them go because I discovered that we came to the wrong person this time. The one we truly need to bring back to the Body Sect is not Huo Yuhao, but Yuwen Tuo!" Langya said solemnly. "Miss Wina, this Yuwen Tuo is like you, a twin martial soul user. And his second martial soul is precisely an essence martial soul, his own soul. Moreover, his soul is a sword. In other words, he is also a born sword spirit!"
"What? Essence martial soul soul? Born Sword Spirit!" Wina and Long Aotian were shocked.
An essence martial soul is a part of the body, and one's own soul is an extremely special kind, which can also be considered an essence. But using one's own soul directly as a martial soul has never appeared, even in their Body Sect.
A born sword spirit, moreover, signifies that his martial soul possesses extremely strong offensive capabilities.
"This is the information Yuwen Tuo left for us. Let's all see it together," a flash of light passed over Langya's forehead.
A phantom of Yuwen Tuo appeared before everyone.
This was something Yuwen Tuo had prepared in advance. He wanted to have a proper conversation with the Body Sect in front of Gong Changlong and the others, but it would be difficult to do so easily. Therefore, he could only record a soul imprint message beforehand, which would be projected into Langya's mind during their mental connection.
"Everyone, I am Yuwen Tuo. There was truly no other way for me to devise this plan to draw you here. I am trapped by Shrek Academy and can only seek help from the Body Sect…"
Yuwen Tuo narrated his general past experiences to them.
This made Langya and the others increasingly furious as they listened.
Long Aotian even punched through the wall of the hotel room. "Good heavens, Shrek, you dare to bully my Body Sect people like this? I'll settle this score with you sooner or later."
Ever since he learned that Yuwen Tuo possessed an essence martial soul, he had regarded Yuwen Tuo as a member of his own sect.
"Everyone, you alone cannot take me away. While Mister Langya and Mister Yu Tao are indeed strong, they may not be able to defeat a true Titled Douluo like Gong Changlong. There is also Ma Xiaotao in Shrek Academy, whose combat power is not much inferior to a Titled Douluo. Moreover, Gluttony Douluo Xuanzi could return at any time. All of you should immediately return to the Body Sect. Before the end of this competition, please summon Senior Undying, the Body Douluo."
"Remember, absolutely do not let me return to Shrek Academy. Once there, even Senior Undying might not gain any advantage, because Dragon God Douluo Mu En is still alive. This Star Luo City is the best and only opportunity. I trouble you all…"
At this point, Yuwen Tuo's projection slowly faded.
He had given all the necessary reminders. Now, it was up to the Body Sect's actions.
