Chapter 1270: Don’t Cry, Mother

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tang Wulin’s right hand caressed Lang Yue’s back as he infused gentle soul power into her body to prevent her agitated emotional fluctuations from harming her body.

After a while, Lang Yue raised her head and spoke softly, “Wulin, is that really you? I never thought that I’d get the chance to see you again in my lifetime.”

“Mother, it’s me. Don’t cry anymore. It’s not good to be sad. We’re finally reunited as a family! Don’t worry, I’ve spoken to Her Excellency, the Holy Spirit Douluo. She told me that Father is safe and he needs to fully rest for his recuperation.”

“Hmm.” Lang Yue nodded strenuously. She had learned about her husband’s condition from the Holy Spirit Douluo since earlier. “My child, you’ve had a difficult time all these years. It’s all Father and Mother’s fault!”

She not only felt pity for her husband but for her son as well! When Tang Wulin was just ten years old, both she and her husband had no choice but to leave him. From the day they left till today, it had been a full twelve years. Each day had seemed like a year for the past twelve years. She had spent every day thinking about her little boy, all alone in this world. What would he do? Tang Wulin was barely skilled in forging at the time, and he was just a child after all.

Afterward, she and her husband finally had the opportunity to contact the family with a special long-distance communicator prepared by the Spirit Pagoda. It was a gift given by the Spirit Pagoda’s branch to pacify and entice them to cooperate. However, they were not allowed to talk much for there was specially-appointed staff to monitor their communications. Thus, Tang Ziran and Lang Yue could only gather limited information from Tang Wulin’s forging teacher, Mang Tian.

When they learned that Tang Wulin was progressing well and even got into Shrek Academy, they were happy. In spite of their happiness, they were filled with self-blame and remorse. They realized it would be extremely difficult for a child to grow up without parents or guardians!

Especially when they learned from Mang Tian that Tang Wulin was becoming an outstanding youth, they began to have hope. Yet, they dared not allow Mang Tian to tell Tang Wulin about their whereabouts. Besides, the supervisory staff would not allow them to reveal it either. It was not easy for Tang Ziran to divulge the information that they were at the Dou Spirit Empire. He chanced upon the occasion when the supervisory staff let their guard down once.

The device they were developing had finally succeeded. Initially, they thought that those people would release them then. All this while, those people granted them great wealth despite the occasional threat to their lives. They promised Tang Ziran and his wife a large amount of money and to send them home after the research was completed.

However, when the day came, they sensed something was wrong. Those people did not have the slightest intention to release them. The day Tang Wulin showed up was precisely the day the Spirit Pagoda intended to kill Tang Ziran and his wife to prevent them from divulging the secrets of their work. If Tang Wulin had been a step late, his parents would have died.

Just as Tang Wulin had planned, he managed to save his parents at the most crucial moment. Perhaps, it was god’s will.

The sorrow in Lang Yue’s heart gradually dissipated. She hugged her son. The feeling of happiness after a long suffering made her breathing a little rapid. Her arms were wrapped tightly around her child. She was afraid that it might just be a dream.

“Son, how has your life been over the years?” Lang Yue finally managed a question.

Tang Wulin raised his hand to dry the tears on his mother’s face. “Mother, everything has been smooth going and relatively easy for me over the years. After your departure, I worked hard on elevating myself while learning to forge. Afterward, I got into Shrek Academy successfully. Then, I elevated myself one step at a time. Later, I was recruited by the Tang Sect. Under the academy and Tang Sect’s mutual cultivation, I developed my skills gradually. Teacher Mang Tian finally told me about your possible location with my persistent queries. Father once told me that if I could cultivate to be a Soul Sage some day, then I can possibly save both of you. I’m supposed to represent the Tang Sect and head to the Dou Spirit Continent this time. Fortunately, I came in time.”

The events of twelve years were summarised into such a simple narrative. It all sounded so straightforward, yet the untold sorrow behind the story was beyond expression. He did not want his mother to worry.

Lang Yue looked at him. Her vision blurred once again. Tang Wulin might not have mentioned the whole truth. Yet, how could she not have figured out the many incidents that happened to her son over a decade!

“Mother, don’t cry. Our family is finally reunited. I’ve truly waited for this day for a very long time.” Tang Wulin looked at his mother smilingly.

“Hmm. I won’t cry anymore. Our family is finally reunited.” Lang Yue raised her hand and caressed her son’s head gently. Her heart was overcome with gratitude as she looked at his tall, grown son.

“Mother, I’m going to get you some breakfast. We’ll have breakfast in the room. Wait for me, I’ll be back soon.” Tang Wulin hugged his mother. Although he did not wish to part with her for even a moment, he would still need to get some food first.

His father was sleeping soundly on the other bed. He appeared to be in a better condition too.

Lang Yue’s gaze fell upon his son’s figure. She gazed after his departing silhouette as he walked out of the room. Her eyes were filled with gentleness. She walked over and sat down by her husband’s bed. “Ziran, our family has finally reunited. Finally…”

Tang Wulin rushed to the cafeteria, and he ordered a scrumptious spread for breakfast. It was not only for his mother but for himself as well. Everything was going smoothly. How could he not feel elated? He had planned everything well. He would send his parents back to the Tang Sect’s submarine for recuperation. When the affairs of the Dou Spirit Empire and the Star Luo Empire had been dealt with, he would take his parents home. He would take them to the Tang Sect’s headquarters, so it would be more convenient for him to look after them.

A short while ago, his most important goal in cultivating painstakingly was to find his parents. Now that the goal has been achieved, what could be more satisfying than that?

Gu Yuena was a knot in his heart. When he was done handling his parents’ matters, he would figure out a way to meet Na’er. He believed that it would not be difficult for him to find Gu Yuena using the connection between the silver dragon scale and the golden dragon scale.

“Big brother, you’re back? Are you alright?” A surprised voice was heard. Tang Wulin turned around and found Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan behind him.

Tang Wulin could not help laughing upon meeting them. “You’re most eager for food when it comes to meal times!”

Xu Lizhi patted his large belly and spoke smilingly, “One’s mind is troubled when one is no longer keen during meal times. It’s awesome that you’re back.”

Ye Xinglan looked at Tang Wulin with a slightly concerned look. She said, “Captain, are you alright? The other day…”

Tang Wulin frowned deeply. “I truly lost control the other day. It was caused by my Golden Dragon King Bloodline.”

“That person… Was she Na’er? Or?” asked a puzzled Ye Xinglan.

Tang Wulin spoke with a bitter smile, “I don’t really know how to explain at the moment. In a sense, Gu Yue and Na’er are supposed to be the same person. So, she’s now known as Gu Yuena!”

Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi gazed into the eyes of one another. Their eyes were filled with surprise.

“The same person?” They were obviously two different individuals. Yet, how did they turn into the same person?

Tang Wulin spoke with a bitter smile, “Never mind you, even I have yet to figure out what actually happened. We shall settle this later, I guess. It was she who saved me and helped me to suppress my frenzied state. I’d lost control of my emotions the other day due to my father’s condition. I promise not to repeat it. I’m sorry for making everyone worried.”

Ye Xinglan spoke, “It’s alright now that you’re okay. However, you were truly powerful that day.” The Blood Dragon Transformation left behind a deep impression on everyone who had witnessed the battle. Tang Wulin exuded a feeling that he was capable of destroying everything. He was peerless and invincible.

Ye Xinglan had always been a competitive girl. Tang Wulin had been her target all along. Yet, ever since she witnessed Tang Wulin’s Blood Dragon Transformation the other day, she felt powerless. She vaguely felt that it was impossible for her to catch up with Tang Wulin in her lifetime.

Xu Lizhi spoke with a smile, “It’s great that you’re fine. Big brother, what are you having for breakfast? The food in the Dou Spirit Empire is not much different from ours. Some of the snacks here are no longer available in the Douluo Continent. For example, the glutinous rice with chicken wrapped in lotus leaf is especially tasty. You must order ten of those!”

Tang Wulin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. “I’m not the glutton I used to be in the past. There’s no need for me to eat so much now. All of you go ahead. I’m taking my portion back to have breakfast with my mother. I’m really thankful to everyone for helping me save them.”

Ye Xinglan spoke smilingly, “Although it was dangerous, fortunately for us, we got away unscathed. You’re destined for good fortune having survived a great disaster. Please help me say ‘Hi’ to uncle and aunty.”

“Hmm.” Tang Wulin carried a large tray in each of his hands. A variety of foods were piled high on each tray.

After so many years, he wondered whether his mother’s taste for food had changed. He might as well take a little of everything. He would finish off whatever food his mother left untouched. Anyhow, he would not let good food go to waste.
