Tang San: Fatty wants to pay respects to his late wife; Wutong has had to bear the pain of longing
Yuanen Huihui blinked her big eyes, and a glistening tear gradually appeared in them. Even though she wasn't being spoken to, she looked incredibly aggrieved.
"Shut up!"
Lan and Dong Qianqiu shouted in unison, startling Yuanen Huihui, who quickly hid behind them.
"Boring..." Lan Mengqin glanced at her two competitors, then lowered her head again to resist the Ju Zi the pretty older sister had given her.
This is truly a war without gunfire.
Qian Lei swallowed hard. He and Liu Feng were now unsure whether to stand or sit. Looking at Lan Mengqin, whose demeanor was completely different, he whispered:
"Hey, Mengqin, aren't you going to try?"
"When did I ever need to report my progress to the two of you?"
Lan Mengqin rolled her eyes at Qian Lei and Liu Feng, waved her hand dismissively, and said in a very strange tone, "Hurry up and leave, hurry up and leave. If you two grown men were to stay on our girls' boat, people would think you'd had sex reassignment surgery."
"It's not our fault..." Qian Lei and Liu Feng blushed.
Liu Feng sighed, "It was clearly agreed that Senior Zheng Longjiang would be the host for this year's event, but I don't know what the Pavilion Master said to Senior Zheng, but he was so scared that he immediately resigned and went to a distant star system to carry out a mission. He's probably already on a warship now."
Qian Lei looked helpless. "You know, almost every year the hosts of the Sea God Fate are a man and a woman, and many of them are even mutually attracted. If the two of us don't stay with you and go on a boat alone, Madman and I will probably be the talk of the town by tomorrow."
Hahahaha!
Lan Mengqin couldn't help but laugh out loud. She pointed at Qian Lei and Liu Feng, who looked like they wanted to disappear into the ground, and said, "Honestly, what was the Pavilion Master thinking? You two are clearly grown men, yet he arranged for you to be together. But the Pavilion Master's insight is truly remarkable..."
At this point, Lan Mengqin stroked her cute chin, a smile playing on her lips, her eyes narrowing into slits as she chuckled:
"Or is it that something really happened between you two that went beyond friendship?"
Qian Lei, Liu Feng:...
The two looked at each other, like magnets meeting their own poles, and quickly moved away.
Outside, the sky had completely darkened by this time. Suddenly, beams of light shot out from the water, piercing the sky and illuminating the surroundings instantly. On the shores around Sea God Lake, pillars of light also shot into the sky.
Only during the grandest celebrations does Sea God Lake become so lively, allowing the people of Shrek City to see enormous pillars of light shooting into the sky and illuminating the night.
The distant shore was crowded with people who had come to witness this annual celebration.
"It's starting, it's about to start!"
Suddenly, someone shouted, completely energizing the entire audience.
A Shrek student in a green school uniform excitedly rubbed his hands together, gazing at the distant but clearly visible Sea God Lake. His face flushed with excitement, as if he were the one participating in the Sea God Fate.
"Wow, I can't wait to see who will become the Human Sovereign!"
An ordinary Federation citizens, seeing the Shrek Academy disciples who were usually unattainable to him, remarked with admiration, "Yes, the Sea God Fate was never open to the public before, but this time it's open, and we can even be with you all..."
"Hey, what do you mean by 'together with you all'? We've always been together."
A young man with striking red hair, extremely handsome, and dressed in a red school uniform placed his hand on the shoulder of the ordinary Federation citizens and outer court disciple, and laughed loudly:
"The Human Sovereign has said that we should follow in his footsteps. It's said that this year's election is more extraordinary than usual, with many important figures in attendance. We're in for a good show!"
The outer disciple smiled sheepishly and then asked:
"Senior Hua Linhan, which couple are you supporting?"
"I'll provide plenty of support," the senior student from the inner academy said, feigning profundity.
"For example?"
"Human Sovereign, Dong Qianqiu; Human Sovereign, Lan Mengqin; Human Sovereign, Yuanen Huihui..."
"Good heavens, they're all Human Sovereign, and they're all extremely popular women from our Academy..." the outer court disciple complained. "Senior Hua, are you trying to Human Sovereign all the women here?"
Hua Linhan waved his hand, looking at the Sea God Fate, his mind filled with Lin Yuan, and his tone was full of admiration. "The Human Sovereign has so many women fighting over him, he is simply a role model for us all. I declare that I will accept whoever it is, even if the Human Sovereign is the only one I have no objection to. If that's the case, I, Hua Linhan, am willing to be the Human Sovereign's loyal bodyguard."
Hua Linhan looked at the others with a smile.
"And you, who are you supporting?"
The Federation citizens truthfully replied, "To be honest, I don't think it's impossible that he's the Human Sovereign's brother."
Hua Linhan: "... Brother, you're being a bit too morbid."
"That's right!" The outer court disciple suddenly clapped his hands, his eyes sparkling. "And there's Senior Qian Lei and Senior Liu Feng! Over the years, we've often heard about their earth-shattering friendship. They even developed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill! According to our teacher, that Martial Soul Fusion Skill abandons the conventional requirement of relying on Martial Soul compatibility and instead uses emotion as its core driving force. It's impossible to master without extreme emotion!"
"Wow, now that you mention it, it seems like there's a spark between Qian Lei and Liu Feng, right?"
Hua Linhan immediately lit up with a gossipy glint. Thinking of this, he abruptly stood up, waving his arms and shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Qian Lei, Liu Feng, you two must be happy together!"
In an instant, Hua Linhan's words shifted the atmosphere of the scene. Almost everyone raised their arms and cheered loudly, even those who didn't know Qian Lei or Liu Feng started shouting.
"Qian Lei, Liu Feng, you two must be happy together!"
On the boat, Qian Lei and Liu Feng suddenly felt a rush of blood to their heads.
"What the hell..."
"What are you all standing there for? The Sea God Fate has begun, hurry up and get on stage!" Ling Zichen's serious voice rang in their minds through their Divine Sense.
At the same time, very close to the Douluo Federation, the Great God Circle.
Inside the glowing palace.
Tang San opened his eyes, looked at the large circle of God King, and asked:
"Everyone, how much longer until we arrive at the Douluo Continent?"
"That spacetime turbulence saved us a lot of travel time," Chang Gongwei murmured. "Converted to lower-world time, it should be less than a day."
"Okay, Big Brother Dai just told me when we'll arrive in the Douluo Continent. Fatty also wants to pay his respects to his deceased wife."
Tang San smiled and said, "I sent Yuhao ahead earlier, so I suppose he has finished the preparations for the Valley of Love's Questioning. It must have been hard for Wutong to suffer the pain of unrequited love during this time."
