The Legend of the Dragon King (Web Novel)
chapter-1114

The ceiling was the same as always. He did not feel discomfort in any part of his body.

He blinked and felt the presence of his body. Then, he turned his head to the side subconsciously just in time to see the Star Dou Cabin by his side. It was the Star Dou Cabin specially made for him just for the finals.

Tang Wulin shook his head as bits of memories began to emerge in his mind.

"What a lucid dream! Is it because I was too tired from participating in yesterday's competition? I slept so soundly and had such a long and peculiar dream."

Everything felt too unrealistic. The outbreak of the abyssal plane and he had even become the core of the Blood Gods Great Array. He moved the origin energy to fight against the abyss and finally the abyssal plane sent over an irresistible great enemy. Then...then she appeared…

He could not help but laugh as he shook his head.

'It was just a dream. How can that be possible? Everything was so unrealistic.'

He stood up as he was laughing about it. He was just about to pick up his coat and put it on, but his hand stiffly stopped in the air.

'Was that…truly just a dream?'

Without his notice, his heart began to beat faster while his hand began to shiver.

He suddenly stood up and swiftly dialed the most familiar number to him.

"Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep…"

The busy tone was engaged. No one picked up the call.

He refused to be misled as he dialed the number again.

"Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep…"

The busy tone was engaged as before. No one picked up the call again.

Tang Wulin's heart sank abruptly. He suddenly ran towards the outside, pulled open the door and charged out of his room.

He had only run for a few steps when he had encountered a person head-on.

Tang Wulin had no choice but to stop walking. "Senior Blood Two."

Blood Two originally had a very dull attitude towards Tang Wulin and seldom was there any emotions in his conversation with him. He was also the person who had the least exchanges with Tang Wulin in Blood God Army.

Yet this time, Blood Two's eyes immediately brightened upon seeing Tang Wulin. He was all cheerful. "Wulin, you're awake. That's fantastic. This old me is grateful. Thank you!" Blood Two bowed down at him for a solemn salute as he was speaking.

Tang Wulin hastily dodged to the side. "Senior Blood Two, what are you doing!"

When Blood Two stood upright, his eyes were already moistened. "I'm truly thankful to you. I only have one son. No matter how strict I treat him on usual days, he's still the most important person in my heart. I'm grateful for you saving his life than for saving mine. How can I not thank you? Moreover, I'm also thanking you on behalf of the soldiers of the entire Blood God Army. You saved everyone and you're the true hero of the army."

"Me? Did I save Blood Nine? So you're saying I wasn't dreaming?" Tang Wulin looked at Blood Two in a daze. Even though he was still in disbelief for a short period of time, the memories in his mind were gradually gaining clarity.

His body began to mildly shiver as a fear difficult to explain emerged in his heart.

Everything else did not matter, but the silhouette that appeared in the end, the person that appeared was her!

"No! that can't be real. Senior Blood Two, please tell me that it was just a dream. I didn't save the critical situation, there wasn't an outbreak in the abyssal plane, the abyssal kings did not break the seal nor attacked us, and we didn't defeat them in the end, right?"

Blood Two looked at him in astonishment. "Wulin, what's going on with you? Are you alright?"

Tang Wulin was ghastly pale. He abruptly dashed outside with great strides at full speed.

It was all icy cold snow outside with the falling snow whirling in the wind. Yet as soon as he dashed to the outside, he was completely bewildered. Countless plants stood arrogantly on the mountain peak covered in white snow. Even though the plants had already wilted with time due to inadaptability with the bitter cold weather, there was no doubt that those plants existed.

'Everything was real. Then, it wasn't some dream but the events had truly happened. Those events actually existed.'

Tang Wulin looked at everything on the outside with a dull gaze while his entire body was shivering.

The situation that he dreaded the most and hoped would not happen, still happened.

She had already regained her memories. It could even be that she had regained her memories long ago. She once again appeared right by my side when I was in the danger.

She had such powerful strength. So powerful that she could even guide the entire Blood Gods Great Array, she could even defeat the abyssal Sage King.

'She called out the words 'Dragon God Transformation' and not 'Divine Dragon Transformation.'

'She...what was she afraid of actually? Why would she leave me?'

'Who was she?'

'She...where was she?

…

His fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his skin but he still felt nothing. At this moment, Tang Wulin could only feel as if his train of thought was already frozen. His entire body was mildly shivering.

The most terrifying part was not the loss but the unknown.

Whether it was Gu Yue or Gu Yuena, at the moment they had already turned into an enigma in his heart. An enigma that could never be solved.

"Argh…" Tang Wulin looked up to the sky and howled. It was as if he was trying to unleash all the oppression he felt in his heart.

'She left. She left without the slightest bit of hesitation. She refused to tell me anything. She would have already left by now and she would not call me 'father' anymore. Where was she?'

Tang Wulin pursed his lips tightly. He could only feel as if his entire world had already lost its brilliance.

The championship was no longer important when the most important person in his life could not be contacted. On the other hand, he had no idea about anything at all.

After hearing his howl silhouettes and figures began to appear in his surroundings. Those were the soldiers of the Blood God Army.

At this moment they did not understand the reason behind Tang Wulin's gloominess, but they were all performing the same action when they saw him.

They straightened their bodies, stood with attention, clenched their right fists, and thumped their chests. They saluted with the Blood God Army's military salutation.

There was only reverence in everyone's eyes.

Yes, there was only reverence.

It was him that saved everyone in the catastrophic great battle. The nine-colored silhouette that he transformed into surged skyward after the abyssal passage was sealed once again. Then he landed on the ground and sank into a deep state of unconsciousness before revealing his original look.

More and more people gathered in the surroundings. Tang Wulin's train of thoughts had finally pulled back to reality. He could not help being taken aback when he realized that there were already at least over a thousand Blood God Army's soldiers gathered by his side. Moreover, every one of them was saluting him with military salutation.

"Golden Dragon King!" Someone unknown shouted. In the next moment, Blood God Army's soldiers were all calling out the same title, "Golden Dragon King!"

"From this day onward, Tang Wulin is no longer Blood God Battalion's Blood Nine. He has been bestowed the honorary title 'Blood Dragon'. He shall be treated with the best treatment of the Blood God Battalion and now he is also the deputy regimental commander of Blood God Army."

A deep voice was heard as two figures simultaneously landed next to Tang Wulin's side. Those people were Bright Mirror Zhang Huanyun and Heartless Douluo Cao Dezhi.

The arrival of both Limit Douluo made the soldiers even more excited.

"Blood Dragon, Blood Dragon, Blood Dragon!" They cheered in unison as they called out Tang Wulin's honorary title.

It was the first time since Blood God Battalion's establishment for six thousand years that a title without number ever existed.

Zhang Huanyun grabbed Tang Wulin's shoulder. "Wulin, why don't I impart my position as the regimental commander to you. Then, I would get to take some rest too."

Tang Wulin was feeling slightly dumbstruck. He looked to Zhang Huanyun and then to Cao Dezhi as he could not help cracking into a bitter smile.

"Regimental commander, Senior Blood One, I have something I wish to discuss with you in private."

Ten minutes later, in Blood One's room.

"What? You wish to be discharged from the army?" Tang Wulin's words, even with his Limit Douluo's mindset, made Zhang Huanyun jump up from his seat upon hearing them.

Tang Wulin nodded. "Yes, please fulfill my wish." He sounded a little bitter. At this moment, his only wish was to look for Gu Yuena and find out what was actually going on with her.
