”Master Xu Shengqun isn't carrying his identification badge, but Mistress Gu Yuena has all of her identification doc.u.ments; how should we proceed?”

Sister Xing faltered slightly upon hearing this. ”He doesn't have his identification badge? Why not?”

”Master Xu Shengqun says that he forgot to bring it...”

Sister Xing's heart stirred upon hearing this, and she said in a slightly grim voice, ”How could he possibly have forgotten his identification badge? Take them to the observation room, then get the inspection team to verify his ident.i.ty.”

”Yes.”

The ma.s.sive metal gate up ahead was slowly opened, and Tang Wulin and Gu Yue walked through it side by side. At this point, he had already adopted Xu Shengqun's appearance, and he wore a serious look on his face. Through the use of his soul power and bloodline power, even his figure had been altered to resemble that of Xu Shengqun, and he had changed into an ordinary long robe. Gu Yue was following along behind him, putting on an extremely respectful display.

”Master Xu Shengqun, due to the fact that you don't have your identification doc.u.ments, we'll have to get the inspection team to verify your ident.i.ty; please come with me to the observation room. Mistress Gu Yuena, your ident.i.ty has been verified, so you'll be granted pa.s.sage as normal.”

Gu Yuena? Tang Wulin's heart jolted upon hearing this, and he reflexively turned toward Gu Yue. Why were they referring to her as Gu Yuena?

In the past, he naturally wouldn't have thought much of this. After all, a name was nothing more than a t.i.tle for someone to be referred to as, but the situation was different now as Gu Yue currently bore Na'er's appearance!

Despite the astonishment in his heart, his expression remained completely calm and placid. After all, his top priority at the moment was to get out of this fortress.

”That's alright, I'll accompany Master Xu Shengqun during this ident.i.ty verification process,” Gu Yue replied in an aloof manner.

At this moment, what appeared to be a square metal box emerged from an opening on the wall up ahead, and there were a few flas.h.i.+ng lights on the device.

”Please come with me.”

The box then traveled on ahead, and after a metal door was opened, it led them down a metal pa.s.sageway.

Without the a.s.sistance of plants here, Tang Wulin could only try to detect his surroundings using his spiritual power. However, he quickly discovered that those efforts were completely futile as the surrounding metal walls were all over two feet thick, and there was some soul energy injected into those walls to further fortify them. Even a t.i.tled Douluo wouldn't be able to force their way out of this place, let alone a Soul King like him.

The fortress had powerful defenses; it was going to be very difficult to get out of this place without being exposed!

They followed the metal box down the pa.s.sageway, then pa.s.sed through a heavy metal door and arrived in an isolated metal room. There were powerful soul weapons situated in each corner pointing directly toward the center of the room.

This was most likely the so-called observation room.

Tang Wulin sat down in the chair in a completely relaxed and placid manner while Gu Yue stood behind him with her usual cold expression on her face.

Tang Wulin had expended a lot of effort the day before to get her to maintain this stoic demeanor.

Not long after that, the wall up ahead parted, and a few figures strode in from outside. All of them were armed to the teeth with soul weapons in their hands, and the soul weapons in the corners of the room also instantly lit up before pointing themselves directly at Tang Wulin and Gu Yue. It was undoubtedly the case that he would be attacked from all sides as soon as he tried to do anything rash.

The leader of the group appeared to be in his forties, and he stepped forward with a cold expression as he asked, ”Spirit Envoy Xu Shengqun, why aren't you carrying your identification badge?”

”I forgot it,” Tang Wulin replied in a calm voice.

The inspector wore a serious expression as he said, ”As a high-ranking member of the Spirit PaG.o.da, you'll receive a punishment for this breach of the rules, are you aware of that?”

”I am.” Tang Wulin was emulating Xu Shengqun's voice to perfection.

The inspector said, ”We'll now be verifying your ident.i.ty; please cooperate with us while we conduct fingerprint and iris scans.”

Another inspector strode over to them with the relevant devices.
