Chapter 1241: Gu Yuena and the Young Man
When Tang Wulin saw this person, his gaze became dull. He was in his original appearance right now. The beautiful figure in his sight right now was the person whom he thought about all the time.
Gu Yuena wore a flowing white dress. Paired with her silver hair and purple eyes, she appeared cold but extremely beautiful. Darkness Bell was already very beautiful, but she instantly paled in comparison before Gu Yuena. She seemed like a wildflower that lost its glamor before a blooming tulip.
A violent expression flashed past Darkness Bell’s eyes. She hated women more beautiful than her the most, especially when such women provoked her. Although she did not want to publicly lose her temper in a city as large as this, someone with her personality would not really mind doing it.
After Tang Wulin was dazed for a while, he immediately realized that there could be unnecessary trouble. He quickly pulled on Darkness Bell’s arm. “Didn’t you want to know about that? I’ll tell you.”The violent expression in the Darkness Bell’s eyes vanished as quickly as it appeared. She turned to look at him and said with a smile, “Really? But why do I get a feeling that you two know each other? Are you worried about her?” She was an experienced person so Tang Wulin’s hasty actions had revealed more than he had intended.
A person walked up to Gu Yuena at this very moment and said with a smile, “Nana, what’s wrong? Who’re you talking to?”
It was a big tall young man who looked to be around twenty-seven years old. His golden hair was neatly combed and he wore white clothes. Compared to Gu Yuena, his white clothes had clear golden patterns. It looked noble and magnificent.
This young man was also very handsome. He had a gentler appearance compared to Tang Wulin, but his eyes were exceptionally deep and bright as if some unique being was contained within them.
“Another handsome young man! Hehehe.” Darkness Bell’s eyes brightened up involuntarily when she saw the young man. She turned to look at Tang Wulin again and smiled. “But I still like you more. Your aura is brighter and she seems to be taken anyways, so I don’t think she’s related to you in any way?”
Gu Yuena’s expression was ice cold. She drily said, “It’s nothing.” After she finished, she turned around and went to the nearby waiting area to sit.
The young man followed beside her. He did not even glance at Tang Wulin or Darkness Bell. Although he wore a faint smile, the pride in his bones could not be concealed.Although Tang Wulin’s expression was calm, there was no way his heart could remain calm as well. He had never expected to meet Gu Yuena at such like this. Moreover, a young man who seemed to be in an extraordinary relationship with her followed beside her.
Who was that he? The aura he released was quite powerful. Tang Wulin guessed that he was a Title Douluo. If he really was a Title Douluo at his young age and Gu Yuena was from Spirit Pagoda, then the young man should be from Spirit Pagoda as well.
These thoughts quickly sped across his mind, but he did not do anything. Compared to the appearance of a possible rival, Darkness Bell beside him was much more terrifying. All he wanted to do right now was to remove this ticking time bomb beside him. Even if he was misunderstood by Gu Yuena, he could not let Darkness Bell threaten her.
Darkness Bell clearly felt the white-clothed young man’s cultivation base as well. She looked at him with interest but did not say anything else.
Her main objective was still to capture Tang Wulin. Although he appeared to only have a seven-ringed cultivation base on the surface, he was actually not inferior to an ordinary Title Douluo. She did not wish for new problems to unexpectedly crop up. It was actually just as she had said, it was pure coincidence that she had been able to get her hands on Tang Wulin.
“Nana, don’t trouble yourself with those boring people. Why do you want to head to Skysea City? Are you really thinking of traveling to the Star Luo Continent? After all, that’s not our territory. Once the war starts, we’ll be in a certain degree of danger. I think that it would be better for us to stay in the headquarters. Your spiritual cultivation base is almost at Spirit Domain already, right? Do you think that you can give me a chance after your breakthrough?” the white-clothed young man said with a smile.
Gu Yuena glanced at him. “We’ll talk about it when the time comes. As for the Star Luo Continent, I haven’t figured that part out yet. I only want to have a look at Skysea City. I hear that the three great fleets have gathered there. It must be a majestic view.”
“Okay.” The white-clothed young man did not pester her any further. He could only reveal a charming smile and quietly sat beside Gu Yuena as they waited for the train.
Tang Wulin had extremely good ears and he naturally heard the conversation between Gu Yuena and the white-clothed young man. ‘She wants to go to Skysea City? Maybe even Star Luo Empire? Why’s that?’
“You two know each other? Is she your lover? It seems like you have a rival there.” Na Nali whispered into Tang Wulin’s ear. Her tone clearly showed her rejoicing self at his unfortunate predicament. On a deeper level, she even sounded cold.
Tang Wulin glanced at her but said nothing.
Darkness Bell was simply too dangerous. No matter what, he could not expose Gu Yuena to danger! He could only harden his heart at this moment and act as if he did not know Gu Yuena.
They had some time before the train heading to Skysea City would arrive. The platform appeared slightly deserted. Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, the white-clothed young man and Darkness Bell all had extremely outstanding outer appearances. It was only natural for them to attract the attention of the passersby.
Tang Wulin was silent while Na Nali still wore a smile from the beginning. Nobody could tell what she was actually thinking. Nearby, the white-clothed young man wore a genial smile and appeared cultured and elegant. Gu Yuena’s expression was dry and she was as silent as Tang Wulin.
The four of them entertained their respective thoughts. However, they formed an exquisite scene just by standing on the platform.
Gu Yuena flipped her long silver hair, revealing her fair and beautiful face. A peculiar expression suddenly appeared on her face. The expression was very subtle. If one did not pay close attention, one would not even be able to notice anything. It resembled a fake smile. She suddenly made her move without any warnings.
Her movements did not seem to be quick. She moved gracefully and it looked natural. Her hand which she used to flip her hair made a downward-pressing gesture in Tang Wulin’s direction as she brought it down.
Space before her palm seemed to cave in with this simple action. It was as if the air had become a balloon that was suddenly pressed down upon and caved inward. The air around Tang Wulin on the other side suddenly contorted. A surge of powerful force directly blasted his body.
Everything happened too suddenly. Na Nali and the white-clothed young man did not even have the time to register what had just happened.
Tang Wulin grunted and his body seemed to have been hit by something very powerful. He reeled from the impact.
While Na Nali was shocked, Gu Yuena pulled Tang Wulin with one hand and smacked the air with her other hand. Her palm collided with the surge of energy in the air as a muffled explosion sound was heard. A shockwave was instantly sent outward through the surrounding air spreading outward in all directions.
Gu Yuena pushed down with her palm as she instantly shot herself into the air. She drew her right hand across the air and a huge fireball appeared out of thin air which shot straight towards Na Nali. In the next scene, even an expert of Na Nali’s rank could not help but contracted her pupils at the sight.
A green light orb that contained the force of a gale was shot after the fireball followed by a ball blue that rippled and flickered. A yellow ball ended the series of attacks. Every light orb was quicker than the one before. When they were ten meters from Gu Yuena’s palm, they had fused into one and turned into an extremely unstable giant light orb which was a riot of colors. It practically enveloped Na Nali’s entire body within it.
Even an expert of Na Nali’s rank could not help but be awed by the elemental controls of such mastery. At the very least, none of the experts she knew could accomplish what she had just seen.
