Chapter 43: Reunion and Fate
Chapter 43: Reunion and Fate
A gentle wind was passing by as two people stare at each other on a boat, that was sailing slowly across the sea.
Tang Wulin gazes at Na'er, thinking about all the things they have gone through since the day she joined his family. Fleeting images of him instructing her, feeding her and bathing with her.
Na'er was shocked as she gazes at Tang Wulin. Rapid images started to enter her mind as she begins to recall her time with him.
Na'er body started to tremble before her head begins lowering. Tears started to well up in her eyes as she dashes straight toward Tang Wulin and dived into his arms.
Tang Wulin arm closed when he felt Na'er arms gripping him tightly.
"Big brother, is this really you?" Na'er asked as she was jumping up and down in joyous excitement. Tang Wulin showed a rare smile and nodded his head, as he started rubbing her lovely head.
He moved Na'er back to get a proper look at her. She was no longer the small child that but was now already tall enough to reach his shoulder.
Tang Wulin did not care about anything right now as he was able to be reunited with his precious family.
"Big brother, why are you here?" Asked Na'er as she was still surprised he was here. Tang Wulin face twitch as he moved his hand to start gently pinching her rosy cheek.
"Ahh! Big Brother stop!"
"Are you really asking me that, when you left us years ago." Tang Wulin was unamused as he was going to make sure to milk everything out of this little sister of his.
Na'er shook as she looks up to see her brother body trembling, as she started to realize how sad he must have been.
"I'm sorry! I had to leave because my family member found me and took me." Said Na'er as she hugged Tang Wulin tightly. Tang Wulin sighs, as he continues caressing her gorgeous hair.
"Explain everything to me first." Said Tang Wulin.
"My family brought me back to the clan, where they held a ceremony and my martial soul was awakened. Then they sent me here when I reach eight and I've been staying here ever since then. My encounter is far less interesting than yours, though." Said Na'er as she instantly begins summarizing the main points.
Tang Wulin nodded, but he wasn't completely done with her. While he knew she was hiding some stuff about her clan, he didn't care much about it.
"Do you know Gu Yue?" Asked Tang Wulin, causing Na'er eyes to widen.
"Who?"
"One of my teammates is Gu Yue, for some reason she has the same smell as you." Said Tang Wulin as he stared thoughtfully at Na'er.
"Sorry, brother I don't know who that is." Said Na'er as she tried looking away from Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin rolled his eyes and moved his eager hand toward her rosy cheeks to pinch it again. Na'er started crying out for him to stop but Tang Wulin ignored her.
"Stop lying. I can tell her scent and your scent are too similar. In fact, if I didn't know better, it as if you guys were the same people." Said Tang Wulin, as he keenly watches as Na'er body trembles with shock.
Na'er snaps her head and was stun at her brother comment.
"What are you talking about?" Asked Na'er.
"I lived with you for years and stayed with Gu Yue for almost six years. During that time, the smell between you two is too similar to be a coincidence. Even now, I can tell you have the same scent as Gu Yue." Said Tang Wulin, as he gazes at Na'er face that was panicking.
"Tell me Na'er, what exactly is your relationship with Gu Yue." Said Tang Wulin. Na'er was beyond mild shock at her brother ability but then realize it's just like him.
"I'm sorry but I can't."
"Why not?"
"Because I just can't!" Na'er yelled as her body began to trembles. Tang Wulin sighs as he naturally brought her into his affectionate embrace.
"Is it because you're terrified I might get targeted by your clan?" Asked Tang Wulin as he felt Na'er shoulder freeze with fright.
"After you left, I felt something I haven't felt in a long time. Do you know what it was?"Asked Tang Wulin, causing Na'er who was in his arm to gently shake her head.
"Unbelievable rage and also despair." Said Tang Wulin softly. Na'er body was shaking, but Tang Wulin was gazing out at the peaceful sea.
"I naturally hated myself for letting you go. But even then I believe you would be ok because you are my little sister that I trained." Said Tang Wulin, as he begins caressing Na'er head.
"Na'er it's ok to ask for my help because we are a family. You should know by now, that no matter the danger, I would crush it." Said Tang Wulin, as he lifted up Na'er face to see her glittering eyes shining and tears streaming down.
"So trust in me Na'er, I promise to never leave you." Said Tang Wulin softly.
Na'er couldn't control herself as she charged straight back in her big brother chest and cried passionately.
Na'er fondly remembers all the time her brother, as cared for her, protected her and never let her down.
Na'er knew deep down she was lonely for these past few years and desperately wish to go back to her real family.
"Ok."Said Na'er, as she knew she didn't care about anything else other than being with her big brother.

'He isn't answering.' Wu Zhankong thought as he been trying to get in touch with Tang Wulin. His teacher Zhao Jiu was back from his business trip and wanted him to bring Tang Wulin to check on his progress.
Wu Zhankong had already told his teacher about Tang Wulin success in completing the mission.
Zhuo Shi was very happy but black lines were instantly formed on his head when he heard that Tang Wulin said Zhuo Shi owes him a favor. The worst part is he would leave Shrek if any of them decided to back out of it.
Of course, Wu Zhankong himself lied about the quitting part but knowing that kids personality, he had no doubt he might just do it.
'This is just for extra reassurance.' Thought Wu Zhankong as he begins making his way to the front gate. His master told him to meet him there.
After a while, Wu Zhankong was able to arrive at the gate, just as an old man was walking close to it.
"Teacher." Said Wu Zhankong as he begins to bow before the old man in front of him. Zhuo Shi nodded as he continues walking ahead.
"Where is the brat at?" Asked Zhuo Shi, as he notices Tang Wulin wasn't with Wu Zhankong. Wu Zhankong was following Zhuo Shi he told him that Tang Wulin didn't answer his communicator.
"Well it's fine, he may be cultivating or making a breakthrough." Said Zhuo Shi as he doubts Tang Wulin would be the type to slack off. Especially considers his love for fighting and beating up people stronger than him.

"An important event took place in the Divine Realm, where all those who become gods go to. This event involved the Dragon God that almost led to the destruction of the divine realm." Said Na'er
"There were Five Great God Kings in the Divine Realm. They formed the council of the Divine Realm and were the rulers whereby they supervised the world under them. Because the Divine Realm was created by these high-ranked humans, these Godhood humans regarded themselves superior over the rest. "
"In the beginning, everything was fine. With the passing of time, an ideology that the beasts were supposed to serve the humans took hold. What followed was the Godhood humans naturally prevailed over the Godhood beasts, and the humans ended up enslaving the beasts." Said Na'er as her expression begins to change with one of sorrow.
"The Godhood humans were more powerful. They controlled the hub of the Divine Realm with the five God-Kings. Their powers far exceeded the Godhood beasts, so the Godhood beasts had to endure the abuse. One day, a Godhood beast encountered an unjust treatment where it was being hunted down. Upon learning of the mistreatment of one of their own, the Divine beasts were infuriated. The Five Great God Kings dealt with the Divine officer who mistreated the Godhood beast, but they could not pacify the wrath of the Divine beasts."
"The Dragon God couldn't stand for this any longer, as he gathers all the other divine beast and led them into a war. The war lasted for a long time in the Divine Realm. It brought an unfortunate catastrophe to the Divine Realm. More than a third of the Godhood humans were casualties during the war. It was the heaviest hit they have suffered since the creation of the Divine Realm. But in the end, the Divine beasts lost the war. The council of the Divine Realm was overly powerful. The Dragon God was severed into two by the Xiu Luo God of the Five Great God-Kings or better known as the Asura God." Said Na'er.
"But the Dragon God didn't die as he was too strong and so he could only be split into two. The Golden Dragon King and The Silver Dragon King. The Golden one had the dragon god strength and its powerful body. While the Silver one possesses it intelligent and controls over the elements"
"Isn't it ironic that both the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King would meet at such a young age." Said Na'er as she gazes at Tang Wulin.
"You're the Silver Dragon King" Siad Tang Wulin.
"Yes, I'm and also."
"Gu Yue. You guys split apart just like how the Dragon God was." Said Tang Wulin after understanding why Na'er told him that story.
"Yes and that not is all. Our meeting wasn't coincidence Big Brother, in fact, it was intentional." Said Na'er.
"You were supposed to kill me right?" Said Tang Wulin as he gazes thoughtfully at Na'er whos body begins to tremble even more.
"Yes If I didn't lose my memories, then I would have killed you. Through me killing you, I would have become whole once again and have the power to avenge the unjustness of the spirit beast." Said Na'er, as she started becoming quiet.
Tang Wulin didn't say anything as he continues rubbing Na'er er hair and then begin to wonder about something.
"Is it really ok for you and Gu Yue to be split?" Asked Tang Wulin.
"Nothing bad would happen. We just won't be able to regain our full might as the Silver Dragon King." Said Na'er, causing Tang Wulin to nod.
"Tell me Na'er, what is it that you want?" Asked Tang Wulin.
"What?" Na'er looks up at her brother in surprise.
"Do you want to fuse back with Gu Yue? Do you want to kill me? Or Do you want to avenge all the spirit beast that died?"Asked Tang Wulin, as he gazes at Na'er. Na'er instantly shook her head.
"I don't care about fusing back with her, nor about avenging the spirit beast and even thinking about killing you. I Just want to stay with you forever!" Na'er screamed as she held on to Tang Wulin, who just smiled softly.
"Alright, I promise we won't be apart anymore. From now on, we will be together." Said Tang Wulin, causing Na'er to nod her head.
"I will think of a way to help you and Gu Yue regain your powers, without the fusion. Then I will help you find a way to help the spirit beast." Said Tang Wulin, causing Na'er to look up at him in shock.
"What do you mean big brother?" Asked Na'er.
"I'm sure you and Gu Yue have been given a big burden of saving the spirit beast. But it's ok now because I will help you carry that extraordinary burden. So you two can be free to live your lives." Said Tang Wulin.
Na'er didn't say anything else as she held on to the person she considers her light. She always wonders how this person in front of her could make her feel like everything was going to be ok.
'Zeref, you got any ideas for helping them regain their powers?' Asked Tang Wulin as he held on to Na'er.
"Well, there is one idea to help them regain their power." Said Zeref with trouble and sad look.
'Which is?' Asked Tang Wulin.
"Lumen Histoire or also know as Fairy Heart."
'What about Fairy Heart?'
"With Fairy Heart, it may be possible for you to transfer enough energy for both of them to substitute it for each other. So they could do the impossible and create two SIlver Dragon King." Said Zeref.
'Is that even possible?'
"Well, with infinite magic energy and Space Between Time, I doubt there anything that could be considered impossible." Said Zeref with a smile.
Tang Wulin thought about it and agreed considering Zeref was going to use both of them to reset time.
'Alright, Fairy Heart can help them but isn't it still in Fiore?' Asked Tang Wulin.
"Not exactly. I will tell you more about it later. Right now you're too weak to retrieve it." Said Zeref.
Tang Wulin nodded his head, as he knew Zeref was the only one that really knew how strong he was at the moment. If he thought he wasn't strong enough to get it now, then their no reason to really doubt him.
'But Fairy Heart huh.'
