Chapter 945 (2/2)

Long Yuxue felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her parade, and she harrumphed, ”If you don't want to hear it, then I'll leave! You better not regret this!”

Long Tianwu faltered slightly before bursting into laughter, ”Alright, I'll listen; what do you want to tell me?”

However, Long Yuxue turned away in a smug manner, and said, ”I don't feel like telling you anymore. I'm going now, SUPERIOR!”

She then immediately turned to leave.

Long Tianwu rose to his feet, and chuckled, ”Alright, my precious little daughter. There's no one else, so I shouldn't have been so strict and dogmatic, and I apologize.”

Only then did Long Yuxue turn around again with a content look on her face. ”Father, I have some good news for you; we've stumbled upon a great treasure!”

”Hmm?” Long Tianwu appraised his daughter with a perplexed expression.

Long Yuxue explained, ”I'm talking about Tang Wulin!”

”Tang Wulin? What about him?” Long Tianwu asked, ”Isn't he undertaking his special training with you? Did he discover a new continent or something?”

Long Yuxue replied, ”I really do feel like I've discovered a new continent! Did you know that he's a blacksmith as well?”

Long Tianwu replied, ”That's not really a surprise; all aspiring battle armor masters will take on a secondary occupation that's related to their battle armor. The only thing that's noteworthy is that not many people choose forging as their secondary occupation.”

Long Yuxue continued, ”Do you know what rank blacksmith he is?”

Long Tianwu mused, ”Looking at you now, it's not hard to guess that he must be quite a high-ranked blacksmith. Could it be that he's already a fifth-rank blacksmith who's capable of spirit refinement? That would be quite remarkable at his age.”

Long Yuxue immediately pouted with displeasure. ”Do you think your daughter is that excitable? Spirit refinement is nothing!”

Long Tianwu immediately burst into laughter. ”Spirit refinement is nothing? You're only saying that because you don't know how difficult spirit refinement is... Wait, are you saying...?” A surprised expression finally began to appear on Long Tianwu's face as he realized where this conversation was going.

Long Yuxue nodded, and chuckled, ”That's right, not only can he spirit refine, he can even soul refine! He's a seventh-rank Saint Blacksmith, and he's definitely the youngest Saint Blacksmith in history!”

Long Tianwu drew a sharp breath upon hearing this, but as opposed to being excited, he fell completely silent.

”What is, Father? This is fantastic news? Shouldn't you be happy?” Long Yuxue asked in a confused manner.

However, Long Tianwu sighed in response, ”If we were talking about someone else, I would naturally be overjoyed, and this is indeed fantastic news for our Blood G.o.d Legion, but Tang Wulin's ident.i.ty is rather special.”

”What do you mean?” Long Yuxue asked.

Long Tianwu explained, ”He possesses immense combat prowess, a powerful bloodline, and he's a Saint Blacksmith; what place do you think is capable of nurturing such a brilliant young prodigy?”

Long Yuxue asked, ”Isn't he from the Tang Sect?”

Long Tianwu replied, ”Even the Tang Sect can't nurture a freakish talent like him. He's blessed by the heavens and under normal circ.u.mstances, he would definitely rise to the pinnacle of the entire continent in the future. On top of that, he's very handsome, and I'm sure that'll only draw more people to him. However, I have to remind you to keep your distance from him. You're my only daughter, and I want you to be safe.”

Long Yuxue wore a perplexed expression as she asked, ”What are you saying, Father? I don't understand.”

Long Tianwu replied in a serious voice, ”I've verified Tang Wulin's ident.i.ty with the Tang Sect, and they told me that he's the leader of the current generation of Shrek's Seven Monsters. Do you understand now?”

Long Yuxue shuddered upon hearing this.

She had heard far too many stories and legends about Shrek Academy and Shrek's Seven Monsters ever since she was a child. Never would she have thought that the newbie soldier who was following her around and referring to her as superior every day would be the leader of Shrek's Seven Monsters.

”Shrek City was destroyed, and Shrek Academy was razed to the ground. As a member of Shrek's Seven Monsters, he has a duty to revive Shrek Academy, and that was why he was sent here. The vice-palace master of the Tang Sect's Douluo Palace sent him here so he could grow and develop away from the chaos on the continent, and also to help him attain more influence in the military. In the aftermath of Shrek Academy's destruction, all of the major powers are scrutinizing those with connections to Shrek Academy, and all of those people are also waiting for an opportunity.”
