Chapter 76: After Match Discussion
It was already evening when Anping fully recovered. Upon leaving the room, he found Gu Yuena playing with her phone in the living room downstairs. She greeted him, and he walked down.
"You finally came out. I've been hungry for a long time. Go and cook quickly. I want to eat pork ribs noodles," she said, winking at Anping.
Anping sighed and headed to the kitchen. As he walked, he suggested, "You have been hungry for a long time, and you're still playing with your phone. Why don't we go out to eat?"
"But I want to eat what you cook, can't I?" There was a strong hint of threat in Gu Yuena's tone.
Anping, too lazy to respond, busied himself in the kitchen.
Gu Yuena changed her position on the sofa, lying on her side, looking toward the kitchen, and asked casually, "Do you know what happened to the spear Tang Wulin had before?"
Anping considered the question and answered matter-of-factly, "If I guessed correctly, it should be the Golden Dragon Spear. It's said to be transformed from the Dragon God's rib, later obtained by Poseidon Tang San, and given to his daughter Butterfly Douluo Tang Wutong. It's a divine weapon."
"It's an artifact. It's such a pity to destroy it like this. Didn't you ever think of snatching it away?" Gu Yuena smiled, showing no remorse.
Anping retorted, "Snatch it? Just destroy it. There's no evidence. No one would think I could destroy a divine weapon and snatch it without being chased to death by Shrek and the others."
Anping's words were correct. Many senior officials at Shrek Academy recognized the Golden Dragon Spear from the live broadcast. Their initial thought was to wait for Tang Wulin's return to inquire, but seeing it shattered and disappear, they dropped the matter.
Gu Yuena asked, "Let's change the question. Tang Wulin and Tang Wutong have similar names. So, is Tang Wulin related to Poseidon? You destroyed the Golden Dragon Spear, aren't you afraid Poseidon will trouble you?"
Anping smiled and replied, "Tang Wulin should be the son of Poseidon Tang San. As for causing trouble for me, if Poseidon really wants to, Can I still cook for you here."
Gu Yuena snorted and said, "Forget it. Then tell me what happened to Tang Wulin before. It's like he's a different person."
Anping, looking at the irked Gu Yuena, found her cute and replied with a smile, "That can be said. If I'm not wrong, it's the effect of the sea god Tang San's consciousness possession. Otherwise, do you think Tang Wulin is really that powerful?"
Gu Yuena was surprised, "Poseidon Tang San's consciousness? Is it really that weak?"
Despite sensing a trace of Poseidon's aura, she initially thought it might be a prop with Poseidon's aura. Anping, unexpectedly, revealed that it was Poseidon's consciousness.
"It's not just weak; it's probably weaker than that. If I'm correct, he likely witnessed the Golden Dragon Spear being blocked by my martial spirit and had the notion to test us. If he had truly attacked at full strength, we might have had to flee for our lives," Anping sighed softly, acknowledging his current limitations.
Gu Yuena questioned, "Since you've known it's Poseidon Tang San's consciousness for a while, aren't you afraid he'll come after you again?"
"If he seeks trouble, it's trouble for both of us. I didn't act alone. Besides, you think I only destroyed the Golden Dragon Spear? He probably won't emerge for a while," Anping explained and then recalled something. Confused, he looked at Gu Yuena, "You probably know what I did during the spirit fusion state, right?"
As the two's martial soul fusion skills evolved, Anping noticed a deeper connection forming between them, even sensing each other's emotions after separation.
Angry, Gu Yuena replied, "Your strange martial soul shielding ability is too strong. I sensed you were contemplating withering and decomposition at that time."
Anping nodded, clarifying, "Yes, it's withering and decomposition. I call it conceptual magic. It integrates the concepts of withering and decomposition into energy, using external energy as fuel to amplify the withering effect on the target material."
"Because the Golden Dragon Spear is rich in life energy, and transforming it into withering after decomposition is highly effective, the sea god Tang San's consciousness in Tang Wulin's body should fall into a deep sleep for a while, with minimal impact on the outside world. If it were an ordinary weapon, it wouldn't have inflicted as much damage on Tang San's consciousness."
"So your original intention was to target Tang San's consciousness?" Gu Yuena exclaimed. After all, if Anping hadn't successfully blocked it, she would have forcibly assumed control of the spirit fusion technique.
"Not exactly. I didn't anticipate his sudden attack. This was just the most optimal solution I calculated. It's a pity the strength wasn't enough; otherwise, we wouldn't face future troubles. Alas!" Anping sighed at the end.
Gu Yuena consoled him, "Don't sigh. You're already very powerful for your age. You mentioned there will be no issues for a while. If we encounter this again, you'll undoubtedly be stronger than now. And so will I."
Anping nodded and remarked, "You're right. I don't know when we'll meet again, but when we do, we'll be stronger."
After chatting for a while, the pork ribs noodles Gu Yuena ordered were finally ready. Anping filled a bowl for both of them and walked out of the kitchen with the plates in hand.
"Finally done," Gu Yuena said, appearing next to Anping in a flash of silver light. She took a portion in a hurry and, in another flash of light, appeared at the dining table and sat down.
Anping grumbled, "Do you need to be in such a hurry? You don't mind the heat."
"We are soul masters, so this little temperature is nothing," Gu Yuena mumbled as she ate. "Speaking of which, I think you can open a restaurant when you are free in the future. The business will definitely be good."
Casually sitting down opposite Gu Yuena with a dinner plate, Anping remarked, "If I were just an ordinary person, maybe I would be a restaurant owner by now."
Without dwelling on the topic, Gu Yuena looked up at Anping and asked, "By the way, when are you planning to leave Sun Moon Academy?"
Anping hadn't considered this and replied directly, "We'll leave early tomorrow morning."
Gu Yuena expressed surprise, "Ah? Are you in such a hurry? I made plans with Xu Xiaoyan to go out and visit Mingdu tomorrow."
"Today, you beat her classmate like that, and you're asking her out to play? Didn't she complain that you were too harsh?" Anping said, annoyed.
Gu Yuena responded, "Why would she complain? She talked on the phone for half an hour, and you were the one did most of it."
"Me? What's wrong with me? Can't blame me for not leaving her in the ring to get injured with her classmates, right? Is it because she's not worried about scarcity but inequality?" Anping said, surprised.
"That's not the case, because you injured Tang Wulin too seriously, and she said he's still lying on the bed now," Gu Yuena changed the subject. "Let's not talk about that for now. Why do you have to leave in such a hurry tomorrow? You haven't mentioned why."
"Didn't I tell you everything? It's because of Tang Wulin's issue," Anping said, looking at Gu Yuena as if she were an idiot.
Rolling her eyes at Anping, Gu Yuena expressed surprise, "Tang Wulin's problem? Didn't you say that the consciousness of the sea god Tang San will have to sleep for at least a long time?"
