Chapter 1202: Finally the Seven Monsters Reunite

“No matter how old they get, some people just love to gossip about others behind their backs at all times. They’re hopeless,” a voice lightly laced with bitterness resounded in the group’s ears.

When they heard it, their faces revealed their surprise. None of them, including Tang Wulin, could locate the source.

“Xie Xie?” Yue Zhengyu was at first astonished, but she was delighted soon enough. “Why you?! Come out here! What are you doing hiding your head but showing your tail?”

“I’d rather not. Catch me if you can!” Xie Xie chuckled.

Yue Zhengyu listened to his voice as he looked around. It seemed to have come from his side, but he saw no sign of Xie Xie.

What was happening?

Everyone could not help but look shocked. ‘What’s this ability of Xie Xie’s? Could it be voice projection? That can’t be it. Voice projection isn’t something everyone can do.’

At this point, Tang Wulin showed a hint of a smile at the edge of his lips. He suddenly reached out and grabbed at nothing.

As the rest of them watched in amazement, Tang Wulin’s arm seemed to pass through space and vanish.

“Ow!”

In the next moment, he pulled someone out of thin air.

The slender man looked handsome in his black sports attire. Was that not Xie Xie?

“No way, big brother. How did you find me?” Xie Xie had appeared just like that. He stared at Tang Wulin with an expression of incredulity.

Tang Wulin also looked back at him, impressed to no end. “Xie Xie, not bad! Since when do you have spatial abilities? I don’t think this is your ability, right?”

The others could not locate Xie Xie, but Tang Wulin, who already had a spiritual cultivation base of Spirit Domain had noticed the trick behind it after he spoke for the second time.

When Xie Xie spoke for the second time, he clearly felt a disturbance in the space. The moment this spatial attribute’s fluctuation appeared, Tang Wulin immediately felt it. Guided by his spiritual power, he controlled the space elements directly. Although he could not shackle Xie Xie, it was still easy enough to find him. Moreover, Xie Xie did not expect anybody to find him, which was why he was easily caught.

After being temporarily taken aback, Xie Xie immediately acted haughtily. “That’s a secret. You guys will know soon enough. Now, other than big brother, nobody’s a match for me. Oh, and Yuanen as well!”

Tang Wulin asked, “Why did you come back on your own? Where’s Yuanen?”

Xie Xie looked around him and fixed his gaze on one spot. He pointed his index finger at it, saying, “Why, she’s right there.”

The others looked in the direction he was pointing in. Yuanen was as inconspicuous as ever. She still appeared to be a man. She had spotted them and was quickening her pace as she hurried toward them, her face beaming.

This was the moment when the Shrek Seven Monsters had finally reunited. At last, they regrouped in Heaven Dou City.

Xie Xie’s magical spatial ability and Yuanen Yehui’s Cloud Vortex Divine Punch were both obtained after they had parted ways.

From their enlistment until their reunion, not that much time had actually passed. However, the destruction of Shrek Academy weighed heavily on all of their hearts and it placed a heavy burden them. This had been their motivation for continuing on. Everyone had their own breakthroughs and improvements.

They lived up to the name of the generation’s Shrek Seven Monsters!

Tang Wulin was in no hurry to bring them back to the Tang Sect. He took them to an inconspicuous corner and gave them simple disguises.

They were the Shrek Seven Monsters, after all. Whether it was in the Spirit Pagoda or in the Holy Spirit Cult, their names were certainly on some kind of list. If the seven of them were gathered together and most of them were undisguised, it was possible for them to be found out.

After putting on some simple makeup, everyone appeared ordinary. The excitement in their eyes was the only thing that could not be concealed.

“Where are we going now?” Xu Xiaoyan asked Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin looked at Yue Zhengyu. “You didn’t tell her?”

Yue Zhengyu chuckled. “I’m startled as well. We can’t give differential treatment here! Nobody’s said a thing. Don’t worry about it, big brother.”

Tang Wulin smiled as well. “Alright. Let’s go then. I’ll lead the way.”

The others were puzzled when heard this exchange. Ye Xinglan had a quiet personality and therefore would not ask much. Xu Lizhi was tolerant and casual, so he did not mind at all. Yuanen Yehui was similar to Ye Xinglan and was immersed in her own world most of the time. However, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan were different. The two of them were impulsive by nature, and they immediately felt an itch in their curious hearts.

“Big brother, what’s going on here? Tell us,” Xie Xie looked at Tang Wulin with an inquisitive look.

Xu Xiaoyan took a more indirect approach. She placed a hand on the tender flesh of Yue Zhengyu’s waist and pinched it. Her beautiful eyes had turned quite threatening. Her glare said something along the lines of, ‘I’ll let you have it if you don’t tell me’.

Yue Zhengyu had a pained expression. “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you. Big brother won’t let me! I can’t do anything about this. I have to listen to the captain, right?”

Tang Wulin said with a grin, “It’s something good. Obviously, you’ll know it when we’re there. I’m sure you won’t mind waiting for a while. Besides, you shouldn’t take my word for it. You should see it for yourselves.”

The more they listened to him, the more curious they got. Even Ye Xinglan looked at Tang Wulin with a strange expression.

Yue Zhengyu quickly changed the topic of conversation. He asked Xie Xie, “What was that ability of yours just now? How did you hide in the air? You weren’t able to do that before!”

Xie Xie said triumphantly, “That’s a secret. If you guys aren’t spilling your beans, why should I spill mine?”

Yue Zhengyu pouted disdainfully, “Secret? You?”

Xie Xie raised his eyebrows. “I can take you on if you’re not satisfied. I’ll beat you up so bad that you’ll have to look for your teeth after. Would you believe that?”

Yue Zhengyu laughed. “You? Beat me up?”

“Are you guys done? You’ve not met each other for so long, but the first thing you do is still quarrel,” said Yuanen Yehui pointedly.

Xie Xie immediately smiled apologetically and said, “No, no. I’ll stop arguing. I won’t stoop down to his level.”

“Whose level are you stooping down to?” Yue Zhengyu was enraged.

Tang Wulin led the way in front as he listened to the bickering of his companions behind him. At least, this meant that everyone was here! His heart had filled with warmth and he liked this feeling very much.

They turned onto a big street before Yue Zhengyu and Xie Xie finally calmed down. After all, if they were seen on the streets, it was all too easy for them to be found out.

Xu Xiaoyan was talking softly to Yuanen Yehui. Ye Xinglan locked arms with Xu Lizhi who had a gentle smile.

They entered a folk house. This was a different passage from when he fetched Yue Zhengyu. They entered the inner room, descended to the basement and continued on in an elevator.

“What’s down there?” Xie Xie looked at the simple metallic walls of the elevator in awe. He did not remember that such a stronghold existed in Heaven Dou City.

The others were also surprised. They had assumed that they were going to stay in a hotel.

“The Tang Sect,” saying those two simple words, Tang Wulin had put all their questions to rest.

Xie Xie immediately said matter-of-factly, “I get it. Big brother, the surprise you were talking about is the Tang Sect, right? It seems that they have much hidden strength. With Tang Sect’s help, it’ll be much easier for us. By the way, big brother, what are we going to do after this?”

Tang Wulin shot him a glance and said with a grin, “We’ll talk when we get there.”

Unsatisfied, Xie Xie asked, “We’re all companions. What’s all this mysteriousness about?”

Through his grin, Tang Wulin answered, “I’m afraid that you’d cry if I told you now.”

“Me? Cry? Why would I cry? I’m such a resilient person.” Xie Xie looked indifferent. “When the academy was destroyed back then, I was in so much pain, but I was strong and didn’t cry.”

Yue Zhengyu smirked, “You were shocked out of your mind, weren’t you?”

“Ding!” came the chime of the elevator. The feeling of descending subsided and the two metallic doors slid open.

Xie Xie was the first one to speak, “I’d like to see just how great this Tang Sect’s secret stronghold is that it can make me cry…”
