His Thoughts, What We Do

At this moment, the God Realm's discussion banquet was still ongoing. Tang San and Xiao Wu continued speaking, and it soon reached its conclusion.

"Just as Brother Wu once said, he would not regret this decision. He hoped that everyone could live well in the God Realm once more and get along harmoniously," Xiao Wu said.

"That's right. I'm sure everyone has heard it many times already. In that life, he successfully established the Spirit Pagoda together with Yuhao, and it turned out far better than what he had initially described. Those of you who experienced it firsthand know this better than anyone, and it was plain for all to see," Tang San said.

"So, the last thing I want to say is that Brother Wu has many important people in his heart, but there's no need to mention who the most important ones are. Next, let those who were most important to Brother Wu at that time say a few words."

"Please welcome Nian Wu Douluo, the First-Level God God of Destiny, Wu Qiu'er."

After those words, Wu Qiu'er was reluctant deep down. It was not that she did not wish to get along peacefully with everyone, nor was it for any other reason. She simply did not want to reveal her feelings for that person in front of everyone.

"Everyone... hello. Actually, I don't really speak much whenever I come here. I'm usually very quiet. So today, I'll just say a few simple words."

"You all know who I am, or rather, who I once was. It was him, Wu Shuanghan, who saved me. At the time, he did not want me to leave that place, but I still walked out without hesitation."

"In the end, I still came into contact with him. We met again in that familiar place and encountered the people who were the most important to each other in our lives. Perhaps, to me, the person who is... immensely important in my heart is him. But in truth, I also regard many people as important to me."

"Of course, at that time, I was not the only one he saved, helped, and drew in. But I know that he did it that way at first because he wanted to give me an explanation, because he did not want me to have an unhappy ending in this life as well. But I know his feelings for me would never be any less."

"Everyone has feelings and sincerity for others, and he was no exception. My Wu and I naturally shared an irreplaceable bond."

"Now, the God Realm is drifting as well, but there will not be too much danger. That is thanks to everyone, and thanks to Wu too."

"This time, I don't know whether he will be like he was last time. But if he loses that, then it can only be fate. I also know that if the one he met back then had not been me, or if he had not chosen me, or if he had encountered someone else... perhaps things would not have turned out this way."

"In the end, I hope he can save those people who are like me once again in his new life and return quickly. I also hope everyone can work together and return to the place we should be returning to."

At that moment, a few teardrops slid from Wu Qiu'er's eyes. At the same time, those who were like her and him felt the same way. The Soul Beasts were moved as well.

Soon, not long after Wu Qiu'er finished speaking, the God Realm's discussion banquet came to an end. The three-headed beast took Wu Qiu'er and three others back to the previous villa first. Some students from the academy generation that Wu Qiu'er had once belonged to followed as well.

"Qiu'er-jie, you did really well just now."

"You worked hard."

"Yes, it wasn't easy. If you need anything, just say so."

The crowd spoke one after another.

"Mm... I understand. Thank you, everyone. Then, please come in."

Afterward, everyone went inside.

"Qiu'er, you worked hard."

"Yes, Qiu'er-jie."

"Mm, it hasn't been easy for you either."

Three people at the back spoke.

"It's fine. You... are actually the same. It's just that we feel it more deeply than the others."

Inside the room.

"When will A-Wu be able to come back?" a woman with golden curls said.

"Don't worry, dear. We'll definitely return there very soon. When that time comes, little brother Wu will naturally return too," the red-haired man comforted her.

"Yes. It wasn't easy for us to have a child like Xiao Han, and he truly is a good child," a woman said. Her black hair was neatly pinned up, and her white outfit with gold trim looked snug, crisp, and exceptionally capable.

"All right, don't worry either. Don't you know this child well enough?"

"Will Xiao Han really be all right? I really miss the days when the few of us were in the forest with Yuhao."

"All right, don't worry. Xiao Han will definitely be fine. Besides, he was far earlier than all of us."

At this moment, Wu Tong walked over and sat beside Wu Qiu'er.

"Don't worry, Brother Wu will be fine. Dad has arranged for them to be in a very safe place. And Brother Wu has those two with him as well."

"Ah... right, they went with him too... Mm, I understand."

"Don't worry, Wu Qiu'er. Brother Wu will be fine. His luck and strength have always been stacked to the fullest," Huo Yuhao said.

"Mm, I wonder whether he is... doing well now?"

As Wu Qiu'er spoke, she looked toward a certain three people. They looked at her at the same time, then all gazed into the distance together.

Meanwhile, in a certain town, many houses stood scattered about. Among them was one house that was especially unusual. Not because of the house itself, but because of the people inside.

"Old Long, do you not plan to transform into human form in the future?"

"Mm, this old man is fine like this. It is enough for that man to take care of you. He needs you, and you need him too."

"Oh, I understand."

"Won't you feel uncomfortable at all?"

"Uncomfortable? No. It feels very familiar, as if I'd experienced it before."

"Is that so... as expected," Old Long thought. He was a huge Dark Black Dragon, his entire body covered in golden-red patterns, with a pair of snake-like golden eyes.

"Old Long, what kind of background do I really have?"

"Mm, didn't I tell you before?"

"But I have a strange feeling. You said that I might have suddenly been born here, and when you entered my mind, you saw that I was already five years old."

"This... even if you say that, this old man's answer remains exactly the same."

"All right..."

"By the way, Old Long, are we going to awaken my Martial Soul tomorrow?"

"Mm, that's right here. But remember, if you awaken it tomorrow, I will have you awaken the Black Gold Red Patterned Dragon as your Martial Soul."

"Okay!"

"But don't tell anyone. I'll help you conceal it. Don't use it for now. You can cultivate, but hide it as much as possible."

"Huh? Why? Are you afraid of danger?"

"That's right. That is part of the reason."

"I understand. I wonder what kind of Martial Soul I'll awaken tomorrow."

"But... Old Long, I know that I may not actually be ordinary. So, I hope that at times, you must be honest with me. You have to tell me what should be said. As for what needs to be hidden, I won't blame you."

"Oh? You're quite good."

"Of course. Although I'm young, some things about me are different from other people."

Soon, the boy opened his eyes and prepared to go to sleep.
