Should We Go to My House? The Parents Come Clean

Not long after, at Eastsea Academy's podium.

Guang Biao stood there. No one knew what kind of combined beating he had gone through, but the already burly man was swollen up like a little pig waiting to be slaughtered for a holiday feast.

Beside him stood Guang Long, trembling with both hands cuffed. He clearly had never imagined that his reckless antics would lead to this.

Yet whether it was the former or the latter, both now stood there with utmost respect before the sea of Eastsea Academy teachers and students, their attitudes incomparably sincere.

"I am Guang Biao, former Mecha Brigade Captain, a Soul Emperor, and a Purple-level Mecha Master. I offer my deepest apologies to all the teachers and students of Eastsea Academy, especially the two children Tang Luochuan and Tang Wulin..."

"Previously, without understanding the full circumstances, I believed my younger brother's lies. I then openly came to the academy gates to cause trouble and provoke your esteemed school, even bringing out a Soul Tool..."

"Though I acted on impulse, I still caused a terrible impact. From this day onward, I will resign from my post as Mecha Brigade Captain and, under President Gu's supervision, accept the Federation's judgment..."

Facing all the teachers and students, Guang Biao gave a ninety-degree bow and spoke each word clearly. This was not merely for show.

He had provoked two Black-level Mecha Masters. If they wanted to punish him, there would have been absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Even if he had lost his position, lost the Mecha he had poured his heart into, and even had to stand trial, was that not already a tremendous stroke of luck?

Being able to stay alive was better than anything.

"The Mecha Brigade Captain..."

"He actually admitted his mistakes so publicly."

Below the stage, the teachers and students who had rushed over upon hearing the news stared at the scene in shock and could not help murmuring.

A six-ring powerhouse whose official rank was even higher than Eastsea City's executive officer.

Such an important figure had actually apologized just like that!

"Our Eastsea Academy..."

"Since when did we become this impressive?"

One student could not help saying.

"Exactly."

"And those Tang Luochuan and Tang Wulin he mentioned..."

"Who are they?"

The crowd discussed it animatedly.

"..."

Meanwhile, Eastsea Academy's principal, Yu Lian, sat beside Tang Ziran and the other big shots. Though he said nothing, his face was practically glowing. He had never felt so proud and vindicated.

When he had first heard that someone had come to cause trouble at the academy, he had been utterly frustrated. Now, he felt more refreshed than ever.

Guang Biao, was it? A Mecha Master, was he?

They had sent him flying straight away!

"But those children's talent is truly extraordinary. As expected of children of such great figures. They are only first-years now—are they really going to follow the ordinary path?"

With a thoughtful look on his face, Yu Lian glanced at the powerhouses beside him as an idea slowly emerged in his mind.

"Boss, they apologized."

On the other side, Xie Xie looked at the scene before him and felt thoroughly satisfied. Did they still dare to come looking for trouble now?

"Yeah."

Tang Luochuan was not particularly surprised. Under the suppressive force of his parents' strength, if Guang Biao had refused to apologize, he truly would not have had the slightest chance of surviving.

"But I really never expected the boss's parents to be owners of black Mechas."

Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, and Wei Xiaofeng could not help muttering. Their own families were certainly not ordinary either, but they were nowhere near this terrifying.

Black-level Mecha Masters.

Terrifying indeed!

"Brother..."

"Dad and Mom really are Mecha Masters?"

Only Tang Wulin still seemed somewhat at a loss.

His impression of his parents had always been that they were ordinary people. A Rank 8 Mecha Master was perhaps a level he could never reach in his lifetime, yet...

Dad and Mom were actually this amazing!

"Wulin."

"Look who that is."

Tang Luochuan smiled and did not explain much. Instead, he pointed toward the two figures seated beside Mu Chen and Gu Jingtian in the distance.

"Dad... Mom..."

Tang Wulin's eyes widened slightly as he murmured.

Then a strange light rose in his eyes.

Dad and Mom were so amazing!

I used to think that my strength was so poor that, in the future, I only needed to protect my ordinary dad and mom. I never expected that I would be the weakest one instead.

Tang Wulin could not help muttering, an indescribable emotion filling his heart. But...

Wasn't this an incredibly good thing?

Dad, Mom, and Brother would all become incredibly powerful people. Then he...

Had to work even harder too!

"Uncle and Auntie really are amazing."

"No wonder they're Luochuan's parents."

At this moment, Gu Yue said softly with a smile.

"It's just that I haven't seen what they look like."

She said with a smile.

"What?"

"You want to meet my parents?"

Tang Luochuan looked at her and asked softly.

"Yeah."

Gu Yue looked at him and nodded without hesitation.

"Hm?"

This time, Tang Luochuan was the one who froze. Gu Yue had agreed so seriously and readily? Was that right?

"What are you looking at?"

"Is there something on my face?"

Gu Yue seemed quite pleased by Tang Luochuan's stunned expression. The smile on her face deepened as she gave a light snort.

"Of course not. I was just thinking about something."

Tang Luochuan shook his head and said slowly.

"What?"

"Next time, I'll take you to my house as a guest."

Tang Luochuan said with a smile.

"Oh... huh?"

"W-Wait, what?"

Gu Yue responded instinctively, only to visibly freeze a moment later. Tang Luochuan had just asked her so bluntly.

What was wrong with this kid?!

"Who wants to visit your house?"

Gu Yue snorted lightly.

"Forget it if you don't want to."

Tang Luochuan shrugged helplessly.

"That's not what I meant."

"We can talk about it when there's a chance."

Gu Yue froze, then turned her head away with a soft snort.

She was not going to talk to this little Tang Luochuan anymore!

"You two."

"Can you accept such an arrangement...?"

Elsewhere, Gu Jingtian looked toward Tang Ziran and Lang Yue with a kindly smile, though his heart had long since been roiling with shock because of them.

After the two had removed their Mechas, he had naturally learned of their cultivation. Both were seven-ring Soul Masters, but...

Two Rank 8 professionals at the Soul Saint level were exceedingly rare even in the entire Mecha Master world.

Not to mention that neither of them was forty yet. Even if they could not become Rank 9 Mecha Designers in the future, they would still stand at the very pinnacle.

"Since he did not cause too much harm, let him apologize publicly like this. As for what happens to him afterward..."

"That will be up to President Gu."

"After all, someone who endangered the children's safety should be taken seriously."

Tang Ziran did not say much, his expression indifferent. A mere clown was not worth him sparing more than a glance.

"That's right."

Lang Yue, beside him, had already calmed down. She nodded gently. Though she was normally so gentle, it was she who had beaten Guang Biao's Purple-level Mecha into scrap metal.

"The time those two brothers spend from now on..."

"Will be spent behind bars."

Mu Chen wore a cold expression. His daughter was also a student at Eastsea Academy. He truly did not dare imagine how dangerous it would have been if she had faced such a situation.

"Still, I bear responsibility for this incident as well. I never expected Guang Biao to be such an unreliable person. Sigh..."

"He nearly put your sons in danger."

"If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to the Mecha Master Association and find me. I will certainly do everything in my power."

Gu Jingtian spoke slowly, his face filled with apology.

He understood all too well what it meant for Mu Ye to think so highly of a child. The boy would surely become a pillar of greatness in the future.

Whether or not Mu Ye's favor was involved, he would certainly make himself more familiar to the other party. If he could invest in him, then he should.

"..."

"Then thank you both for lending us your help."

Tang Ziran looked toward Mu Chen and Gu Jingtian and spoke slowly, though he felt somewhat puzzled inside.

Of the two, Mu Chen was a student's parent, but it was obvious that he had also come to help Luochuan and the others. Tang Ziran could see that clearly, but...

Why had Gu Jingtian come?

Did Luochuan and Wulin know him too?

"But..."

"It seems we'll have to come clean with the children."

Lang Yue wore a thoughtful expression as she spoke softly.

"Yeah."

Tang Ziran agreed. Once the children learned their identities...

They would definitely be shocked, right?

P.S. Some things that should not have appeared showed up in the previous chapter. I do not even know what I wrote, but the backend helped revise it...
