Chapter 890: Come Back!
TL: BluVerse
However, it was hard to say for the others. Relatively speaking, the purer the soul inside the Seven Saints Abyss, the easier it was to pass. The more experiences and knowledge one had, the more complex it became, making it harder to pass. Because there would be more distracting thoughts, and the ego would become more noisy.
At this moment, Tang Zhenhua had also come to Wang Tianyu's side. He bowed to Wang Tianyu and said, "Pavilion Master, I'm going too."
His words were plain as if he was about to do something ordinary.
"Teacher Tang, what are you doing?" Xiao Qi, unaware of the situation, asked anxiously.
How old was Tang Zhenhua? At least 70 or 80 years old. He was actually going into the Seven Saints Abyss? Wasn't he very aware of the danger?
Tang Zhenhua turned around and smiled at him, saying, "Teacher Xiao, these years partnering with you have been very enjoyable. It's mainly because these kids are so good. When they come out, if I can't make it back or something happens, don't tell them. Just say I went to the Tang Sect for research."
"Teacher Tang, you" Although Xiao Qi didn't understand why this was happening, with Wang Tianyu present, he couldn't ask too many questions.
Wang Tianyu, with a solemn expression, looked at Tang Zhenhua and asked, "Zhenhua, have you thought it through?"
It had been many years since Wang Tianyu addressed him in this way. When the incident happened back then, if it wasn't for Ying Luohong blocking the way, Tang Zhenhua would have been beaten to death by the explosive temper of the Pavilion Master.
"I've thought it through. My experiences in the Seven Saints Abyss can be completely open for you and Dean Ying to see. I'm going in." After saying this, Tang Zhenhua lightly tapped the bow of the boat with his toe and leaped into the Seven Saints Abyss without hesitation.
At the moment he jumped off the bow, his entire person felt a bit trance-like. It had been decades, and this leap might be the true liberation.
In this instant, he suddenly felt a kind of enlightenment. All the pain over the years seemed to have disappeared. Because he knew he had no regrets. He had done what he should and could do. Regardless of the outcome, even if he couldn't leave the Seven Saints Abyss alive, his life would be without regrets.
"Come back!" Just then, a voice with a sobbing tone suddenly came into his ears. Immediately after, Tang Zhenhua felt a tightness around his waist, and his body was uncontrollably pulled back.
As he stumbled and landed back on the bow, his body was suddenly tightly embraced by someone. The embrace was forceful as if trying to crush him and assimilate him into their body.
Tang Zhenhua was a bit stunned, and the relief he felt just a moment ago seemed to be pulled back in this instant.
"Wu wu wu, Tang Zhenhua, you scoundrel!" The one who pulled him back and held him tightly was none other than the Outer Court Dean of Shrek Academy, his former wife, Ying Luohong.
Holding onto his body tightly, Ying Luohong burst into tears, as if all the tears accumulated over the decades were about to be released at this moment.
Tang Zhenhua was first dumbfounded, then subconsciously hugged the familiar yet unfamiliar person in his arms. For a moment, his heart was in chaos.
Wang Tianyu, a bit helpless, glanced at them, shook his body, and had already disappeared above the Seven Saints Abyss. Of course, he wasn't going to the Seven Saints Abyss for training; he was going to observe the experiences of those kids.
Xiao Qi looked at Wang Tianyu leaving and then at the two people hugging tightly in front of him. Among the teachers in the Outer Court, he was relatively young, so he didn't know much about the relationship between Ying Luohong and Tang Zhenhua.
At this moment, suddenly witnessing such a big piece of gossip, he was momentarily dumbfounded, with his mouth wide open and his eyes staring. He was completely stunned by the scene in front of him.
What what's going on? Dean Ying and Teacher Tang
Tang Zhenhua gradually came to his senses, but Ying Luohong was still crying loudly. At this moment, he suddenly felt exceptionally relaxed, as if all the pent-up emotions over the years had been released. Was she really back?
Ying Luohong cried for nearly half an hour, wetting the front of Tang Zhenhua's clothes. Tang Zhenhua didn't dare to move or say anything. Just holding her like this, he felt satisfied.
"Zhenhua, I have a question for you." Ying Luohong suddenly said in a low voice. Due to crying for so long, her voice was a bit hoarse.
"What question?" Tang Zhenhua asked in a low voice.
Ying Luohong said, "Did she use any means on you back then, so you two?"
Tang Zhenhua's body shook, his brows furrowed, but he didn't make a sound.
Muttering to herself, Ying Luohong said, "Actually, I already guessed it a long time ago. When you were about to jump just now, I became even more certain. Back then, our relationship was so good, how could you suddenly be with her? At that time, I was really angry, and my head was muddled. But I didn't dare to think that she, such a good person, would do such a thing. However, over the years, you've never seen her again, and you've been by my side, accompanying me, even risking going to the Seven Saints Abyss. I gradually understood that what happened back then was probably not your fault. It's just that I really couldn't imagine that she would do such a thing."
Tang Zhenhua sighed, "Time has passed, and if you really forgive me, stop asking. I don't want to recall everything from the past. Moreover, I'm a man after all. Should I shift the blame to her? Besides, at that time, she invited me, and if I insisted on not going, the subsequent events wouldn't have happened. It's still my fault. It's my fault that there's still a slight shadow of her in my heart. So, it's all my fault."
Ying Luohong stood straight from Tang Zhenhua's embrace, raised her head, and looked at him with red and swollen eyes. "Do you know why I didn't let you jump into the Seven Saints Abyss?"
