Chapter 576 The Arrival of Di Tian.
When Xuan Mo returned to Shrek Academy, he found everyone gathered together, their voices filled with joy.
"What are you all doing? Why are you so happy?"
Seeing Xuan Mo approach, Ning Rongrong quickly took his arm. "It's Third Brother's Vast Ocean Universe Shield, it can..."
In a minute, Ning Rongrong explained the entire function of the Vast Ocean Universe Shield to Xuan Mo. "With this, we'll have an extra layer of protection when we go to Seagod Island."
"That's a good thing. However..."
Xuan Mo glanced up at the sky. Because Xuan Mo and Tang San were going to the palace to receive their titles, they were originally scheduled to depart at noon, but the sun was already setting.
"Judging by the sky, we'll have to postpone it by another day."
"Really?" Ning Rongrong's face lit up with joy. After all, every day later was better than nothing. Young lovers who had just tasted forbidden fruit should be inseparable; how could they avoid being separated?
However, at this moment, for some unknown reason, Ma Hongjun seemed completely oblivious to Xuan Mo and Ning Rongrong's current situation. He appeared impatient and said, "It's alright, I think we should leave today. Everyone, don't delay. Uncle Ning got a large carriage for both groups, right? So everyone can rest in the carriage. We're all Soul Masters, we don't need a little rest time."
As soon as he said this, everyone stared at Ma Hongjun like he was an idiot, especially Ning Rongrong, whose face was filled with undisguised hatred. Xuan Mo, on the other hand, felt utterly helpless.
Ma Hongjun realized his words were inappropriate, and seeing Ning Rongrong's murderous gaze, cold sweat poured down his forehead.
"Ahem... um... is it too late for me to take back what I said?"
"You fatso." Xuan Mo shook his head, suppressing a laugh. Looking at Ning Rongrong's expectant face, Xuan Mo had just opened his mouth when the dragon scale on his chest suddenly lit up, and his expression changed.
"Mo? What's wrong?"
Looking at Ning Rongrong, Xuan Mo's face showed even deeper apology. "Rongrong, I'm going to disappoint you again this time."
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong looked at the dragon scale pendant on Xuan Mo's chest that had just lit up, and clearly realized something. Although her heart and eyes gradually dimmed, her expression remained normal.
"It's okay, it's okay..."
"It's my fault."
Xuan Mo guiltily put his arm around Ning Rongrong, gently embracing her waist, and softly murmured, "It's time to part!"
Ning Rongrong didn't move at all, but simply closed her eyes slightly, leaned against Xuan Mo's chest, and whispered.
"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you on Seagod Island!"
"Okay!" Xuan Mo nodded heavily, saying nothing, but his firm voice spoke volumes.
Then he turned to Mu Lin, "Mu Lin, wait for me at Shrek Academy. I'll probably need a few days. In the meantime, go to Master Piercardan and see if he can upgrade your Soul Guidance Arm. For example, add the same ability as Xiao San's Vast Ocean Universe Shield to shield your aura or hide your form. This would be very useful to us."
"No problem, leave it to me." Having given all the instructions, Xuan Mo released Ning Rongrong and walked towards the outskirts of Tian Dou City without looking back, because someone was waiting for him there.
Outside Tian Dou City.
"I called you out, why are you so slow?"
At this moment, Di Tian stood outside the city gate, but the soldiers guarding the gate didn't react at all, as if they didn't even see Di Tian.
Xuan Mo didn't speak, instead looking at Di Tian with a resentful gaze, as if to say, "Honestly, you interrupted me while my wife and I were chatting."
"Senior Di Tian, why did you call me here?"
"Why so much nonsense?" Di Tian glanced at him. "Come with me to the Star Dou Great Forest first, as long as it's good news."
"Good news?"
But before Xuan Mo could react, Di Tian had already transformed into a giant dragon, grabbing him tightly before flapping his wings violently, flying towards the Star Dou Great Forest with a magnificent aura, while simultaneously letting out a deafening dragon roar.
At this moment, the soldiers guarding the city gate finally reacted, raising their spears and rushing out of the city gate. "What just happened?! There was a dragon roar! Be on alert!"
"Boy Mo, you're already level 80, right?"
At this moment, Di Tian's enormous wings retracted, and after entering the Star Dou Great Forest, his body began to shrink rapidly.
Soon, he returned to his human form.
At the same time, a wisp of black light was released from his body, not letting Xuan Mo remain in his dragon claw, but instead wrapping Xuan Mo's body with black light and continuing to fly with him.
The two flew towards the center at the same time, and at this moment they looked more like a father and son than a human and a soul beast.
Of course, Xuan Mo did not admit this.
Hearing Di Tian's words, Xuan Mo was stunned for a moment, and then thought of a possibility.
"I have been broken through to level 80 for quite some time now, but because I haven't had a suitable soul ring, I haven't broken through yet, and I plan to go back to Dragon Valley to do it."
At this point, Xuan Mo changed the subject.
"What? Do you have a soul beast over 100,000 years old that you plan to sacrifice for me? Let me make it clear, I don't want the bad ones."
"You wish!"
Di Tian wanted to throw Xuan Mo down right then and there, but he still held back.
"You think 100,000-year-old soul beasts are as common as cabbages? Besides, how could I possibly let a 100,000-year-old soul beast sacrifice itself for you? Bai Jun only sacrificed himself for you because his lifespan was nearing its end, and also because you were taking care of his daughter."
"Then let me..."
Before Xuan Mo could finish speaking, Di Tian interrupted him. "You'll know when we get there. Anyway, I definitely won't let you leave empty-handed."
Supported by Di Tian's vast soul power and formidable strength, the two quickly leaped over the ancient tree, passed through the thick canopy, and slowly floated down.
They had arrived at the center of the Star Dou Great Forest.
As soon as Xuan Mo landed, he saw the Bear King, the Crimson King, the Ten Thousand Demon King, and Bi Ji, among other ferocious beasts. However, Xuan Mo was not at all reserved, waving and greeting them.
"Hey everyone, long time no see."
"Hmph..."
Compared to the Bear King's indifference and the Ten Thousand Demon King and the Crimson King's indifference, Bi Ji seemed more welcoming, greeting Xuan Mo warmly.
"Long time no see, Xiao Mo."
But... "Alright, stop dawdling."
Before Xuan Mo and Bi Ji could exchange pleasantries, Di Tian grabbed Xuan Mo, "Come with me..."
