Chapter 427: Drinks To Each Other
Chapter 427: Drinks To Each Other
Moving through the streets of Tenrou City, Chen Xinjie and Long Yeyue were smiling while holding each other.
How could they not?
It was finally their time to become gods, not the ones that merely broke through the plane. But True Gods like the great Sea God Tang San and the God of Emotion Huo Yuhao.
Both of them had already accepted they wouldn't be able to become gods with their remaining lifetime.
Yet at the same time, they didn't want to die and leave each other. Especially after making up with each other, during the invasion of the two forces.
Long Yeyue would never admit it but Mu Xi's words had stuck with her. It was able to garner an odd feeling inside of her, this feeling increased even more during the Dou Lin Empire invasion.
And even more during the invasion of the Mortuus and Arkadian plane, causing her to admit that she really did love Chen Xinjie. Even if he made mistakes and so many more before, she didn't want to die in this life without a chance of being with him again.
So after they had made up, they planned to simply live the rest of their life out together after destroying the abyssal realm.
But with Tang Wulin making a God Star for them, they can finally live forever with each other. While there was an incoming threat coming, they didn't plan to be defeated.
As if they would let lose the chance of being together forever after all this time!
"It will be good to finally regain my beauty."
"Hm really? To me, you still are as lovely as the day we first met."
Chen Xinjie gently moves his thumb across Long Yeyue's face causing her to slightly blush while turning away from him.
"Hmph! When did you become such a sweet talker..."
"After I finally got you back, of course."
Long Yeyue pursed her lips while glancing at the smiling Chen Xinjie. "You really are... Fine, you better say only those words to me, you silly old man."
Chen Xinjie chuckled as he wrapped his arms around Long Yueyue while having an emotional sigh and said, "Of course! I wouldn't dare say this to anyone else!"

In Tang Sect.
"Huh? God Star? He actually made something like that... Can I study it!"
Ling Zichen wrapped her arms around Cao Dezhi while looking at him with stars in her eyes.
"You have to ask him yourself... Although I am unsure if you could even mess with it, considering you aren't a God."
"Tsk... Stop reading me, if only I was strong enough. Curse this injury..."
As Cao Dezhi tried to calm Ling Zichen down, Zang Xin walked into the room as he stared at the duo in amusement.
"You do know she or he could ask Tang Wulin to just heal her injury right? Heck, you can do it after you become a God."
Once Zang Xin pointed that out, Cao Dezhi blinked his eyes before releasing a laugh.
As Zang Xin was right! Tang Wulin was a 7-dimensional god that had control over infinite possibilities.
It should be pretty simple for him to simply wish she had no injury or that all of the injuries got healed.
"Screw him!"
"Zichen!"
Ling Zichen ignored Cao Dezhi's glare as she started to grit her teeth, thinking about the wasted opportunities.
"That bastard, are we sure he isn't avoiding me? It has been months, yet I haven't seen him once- Screw it, where is he right now?"
"He should still be in the garden-"
"Wait, Zichen."
Ling Zichen was already out of the door by the time Cao Dezhi had finished calling her out. Sighing to himself, Cao Dezhi gave Zang Xin an annoyed look.
"What?"
"You idiot..."
Zang Xin rolled his eyes at Cao Dezhi's words.

Tang Wulin was walking through the streets of Tenrou City. No one was able to notice him, sense him, and see him.
He was hiding his presence, content on just enjoying this walk through the city he helped build.
The city that Zeref helped him plan, the city that he helped advise to, and the city that he mapped out.
One could say the person who put the most effort into this city was Zeref with Mu Ye coming close behind him.
Tang Wulin enjoyed it, the sun shining brilliantly on his skin. As the people of the city, soul beasts, and humans moved around.
For a city that was almost invaded a month ago, it sure was lively and cheerful.
It was then he noticed his friends or more specifically his male ones that were sitting down on an open bench.
There was Xie Xie, Xu Lizhi, and Yue Zhengyu.
All three of them were drinking with a smile on their face.
His eyes slightly softened before moving towards them while he stopped hiding his presence causing Xie Xie to notice him.
"Wulin! Come over here and join us!"
Xie Xie made sure not to yell this out loud, as he telepathically sent this to Wulin as to not attract any attention.
As Tang Wulin sat down before taking the drink that Xie Xie passed him, they all began to talk.
Their talk was senseless, nothing really specific at all.
Since that wasn't the point, they just wanted to be around each other and enjoy their time together.
Since it has been a long time since all four of them had done this before without the girls.
"Ha, I don't think any of us would imagine our situation would be like this back when we just started our journey as a soul master."
Just the fact he was able to become the leader of the Tang Sect is still a surprise to Xie Xie. But Cao Dezhi said he fulfilled the requirements and was the best one for the job with Zhan Xin agreeing.
It was because of this that he was able to improve his family status back at home. Well other than being a renowned war hero and one of the Spriggans of Alvarez.
But if that wasn't enough, he and his other friends were going to be able to become gods.
Xie Xie will be able to become a True God at the age of 19, wasn't this breaking a record? It was said that Huo Yuhao and Tang San were able to ascend to Godhood around age 25-26.
Yet Xie Xie and the others were going to beat them by at least six years.
"Except maybe Wulin."
Leading a row of laughter from Xu Lizhi and Yue Zhengyu with Tang Wulin shaking his head with a small smile.
"Not even I would have thought my life would be like this when I first became a soul master... In all honesty, I expected my situation to be completely different."
If one asked his younger self about the future, they would have obtained an interesting answer.
One that would be different from what one would expect from someone of Tang Wulin talent.
"Hmm, so how did you imagine your situation?" Xu Lizhi questioned, feeling a bit curious.
"Alone."
Tang Wulin spoke simply, yet it was enough to make the other three fall silent. Which he didn't mind, since he knew that would be their reaction anyway.
Regardless, Tang Wulin back then would have laughed at the notion of being surrounded by friends and people.
Even having his parents around him was about as much as he could have allowed back then. As back then, he didn't really believe anyone would want to stay around him nor did he want anyone to.
He had gotten so used to being alone for so long, that he expected himself to be alone even in this life.
Not because of his circumstances but from the way he acted. It would be a lie to say he didn't deserve to be alone from the way he acted back then.
He was an asshole and cold, although technically he still was. Just not as much as he was back then when he didn't care for anyone but his parents.
And Yet...
"Good thing that future never came to be! Haha, man you must have been annoyed by us sticking close to you."
Xie Xie wrapped an arm around Tang Wulin while he laughed.
Yue Zhengyu and Xu Lizhi also joined in causing everyone to have an arm around each other except him.
Tang Wulin thought back, how he disregarded them back in their younger days.
Yet these idiots stuck by him and kept on knocking at the wall that was his ice-cold kingdom. Even after so many years of him being cold, they still kept on knocking until he finally accepted them.
Something he was honestly grateful for.
"A little bit at the start but gradually, I became grateful."
Tang Wulin arms wrapped around Xie Xie and Xu Lizhi's shoulders causing both of them to widen their eyes.
But Tang Wulin continued talking.
"You guys were really a bunch of idiots... Ironically I was the biggest one in thinking I could push you all away."
"Damn right!"
"Hahaha, he actually admits his stupidity."
"Hehe while it's amazing you admitted it. The girls are going to be peeved that they didn't get to witness it."
Tang Wulin smiled in considerable amusement. As he could imagine all of their annoyed looks, feeling as if they got robbed.
Xie Xie let out a sigh while giving Tang Wulin a miserable look. "Say, boss... This should be our last war for a while right?"
At the moment, he was getting sick of these constant challenges and war. They just did three wars in just one year, how that was possible Xie Xie will never understand.
But he figured that Typhoon was to blame for one of them.
"Yeah, this should be our last... Even if there was more, it would be easy to finish them in an hour."
"Ahh the confidence of a 7th-dimensional god." Yue Zhengyu chuckled." With our great captain, how could we be threatened?"
Xu Lizhi and Xie Xie laughed while Tang Wulin just smiled as Yue Zhengyu winked at him. But then Xie Xie furrowed his brows before glancing at all of them.
"Since that is the case...How about we all get married on the same day?"
The three men blinked their eyes in surprise, all of them staring at Xie Xie. Not only because he brought up marriage but he wanted it on the same day.
"... A wedding huh."
Tang Wulin muttered as he held his drink in his hand, falling into thought. It wasn't just him but the other two men, who were thinking.
It wasn't like any of them had never thought about marrying their partner. But it never really came up considering how busy and hectic their life has been.
Especially Tang Wulin who hasn't gotten a real good break in a long while. Yet the thought of marrying those six women produced a warmth in his chest.
"Let's think about it for a bit... I have to see if Yun'er would be okay with that, as there might be a special day she is waiting for."
"Yeah, Yuxin may not want that..."
Tang Wulin didn't say anything but Xie Xie and the other two figured, he was still thinking about the wedding still.
But then he spoke up.
"Still, it is not a bad idea... We should talk to others before deciding anything."
"Yeah, your right."
After that, the boy continues talking with each other, smiles and laughter swept through the area between all four.
Then Xu Luzhi naturally raised his drinks to the sky.
"To being friends!"
Yue Zhengyu chuckled as he also raised his drinks with Tang Wulin following along. But Xie Xie only scoffed at Xu Lizhi's words before he spoke up.
"Screw being friends! To being brothers!"
Xu Lizhi's eyes widened for a bit before he laughed, also agreeing with Xie Xie's words.
"Right, screw being friends. To being brothers!"
Xie Xie's smile had grown before he glanced at Tang Wulin who had an amusing smile but in the end, he still moved his drinks up.
"To being brothers."
"You three idiots..."
"What? Are you saying you don't want to join our lovely brotherhood?"
Xie Xie wiggled his brow at Yue Zhengyu who gave him an annoyed look before sighing as a pleasant smile formed.
"Idiot, all four of us were already brothers."
Their eyes widened at Yue Zhengyu's words as they saw him moving his drinks up.
"Well damn... Fine, we are just celebrating our brotherhood!"
"Haha."
Yue Zhengyu gave them all a deadpan look but in the end. They all clicked their drinks together to enthusiastically celebrate this moment.
One they all hope they would be able to look back in genuine fondness in the future they are trying to fight for.
And before long they all parted, each had someone they had to go meet.
But their drinks they all shared, laid on the table, all next to each other.

"Hopefully this will be our last big battle."
"Hm, really? These challenges aren't so bad."
"Sister Ye... You need to stop being a battle junkie like your honey."
Liu Yuxin pouted at Ye Xinglan who started to laugh a bit at Liu Yuxin's words. While this was happening, Xu Xiaoyan, Ling Zichen, and Wu Siduo with Dai Yun'er were staring at the whole city.
"Are you planning on calling the other over at Star Luo?"
"Yeah after this, I need to have them hurry up and come! If they miss this, I am afraid they may die of shock."
Ling Zichen laughed at Dai Yun'er abused wards while Wu Siduo's lips twitched in amusement.
Right now they were at the top level of the palace of Tenrou city.
Xu Xiaoyan had run into Ling Zichen who was looking for Tang Wulin had heard he was staying in the garden.
But Xu Xiaoyan gained pity for the girl after her face fell when she told her that Tang Wulin wasn't in the garden anymore.
So she decided to invite her to follow her, maybe they will spot Tang Wulin.
Ling Zichen begrudgingly accepted and then they continued moving through the palace. Before they founded everyone was here, the girls seemed to relax with each other.
None of the guys were insightful.
It wasn't until Dai Yun'er told them that she stopped them from going. She wanted to spend some with the girls before leaving, as their schedule was going to get even busier.
Something all of them agreed with, even Gu Yuena and Yuanen Yehui.
And so both of them joined them, enjoying their time together with the others. Something they haven't done in months, too busy with research, training, and cultivation.
During this time, they just talked with each other.
About their life, their goals and dreams, or the things on their mind. Normally they wouldn't be able to do this any other time but the mood in this space made it easy for everyone to share.
Even those who rarely like to share their problems like Yuanen Yehui and Gu Yuena joined in. The others were pretty invested when Gu Yuena talked about her time as the Dragon God.
From how the dragon clan ruled over the galaxy, to their relationship with the other beasts and their defeat.
All of them also came to the same conclusion as the Light Dragon King, that it was the Dragon God way that led to their ruin.
"I can't really blame you or him, for your decision."
"Yeah, me either... I mean this was his realm."
Xu Xiaoyan spoke up after Mu Xi with the others nodding their head.
Since he made the God Realm in his vision, one that didn't follow the ways of the people.
Regardless it wasn't a choice any of them can judge, considering they too would have made the realm in their vision.
From there, the others also shared. Even Ling Zichen decided to join in, although she only said little things none of them pressured her.
It was only after a bit that they decided it was time to go.
All of them had plans they had with another.
So they all parted once more with each other before going their separate way, while Ling Zichen decided to go back.
Xu Xiaoyan promised to take her when they were all going to meet up with Wulin at the garden, which she accepted.
As the six gorgeous girls made their way through the halls, two of them had hints of rosy red. While the other three had smiles on their face for what to come.
After Xu Xiaoyan's words and what she talked about in the garden with Tang Wulin.
Yet none of them has raised a complaint. Something Xu Xiaoyan and Na'er used to tease Mu Xi and Gu Yuena to their mild annoyance.
