"So that's how it is..."
Tang Wulin suddenly understood.
He truly hadn't known about this.
He said gratefully,
"Gu Yuena, thank you for coming to save me."
However, Gu Yuena shook her head and said calmly,
"If you died here, then we Divine Beasts would truly never have a chance to rise again. I can still tell right from wrong. Besides..."

Tang Wulin nodded heavily.
"Alright. I'm counting on you."
Then, he suddenly flapped the wings
