Tang Wulin heaved a faint sigh. He had to admit that humans were greedy by nature. In the beginning, it could've been argued that they had hunted soul beasts for survival, but after humans became more powerful than soul beasts, the dynamic completely shifted. Humans began to slaughter soul beasts with reckless abandon for personal profit, and the Spirit Pagoda was even using soul beasts to conduct research.
However, humans were also beginning to experience the side-effects stemming from the collapse of the ecosystem and the waning life force energy on the Douluo Continent.
The Douluo Continent had once belonged to soul beasts, and even though soul beasts also slaughtered one another, they did so with restraint, but what about humans? Human wants and needs were limitless, and they slaughtered soul beasts and tapped into all of the planet's resources without any reservation. Now, the planet was standing on its last legs, and the human race had no choice but to explore outer space for the sake of future generations.
Tang Wulin had no counter against the burly man's accusations, nor did he want to argue this point.
In the face of Tang Wulin's silence, the burly man also calmed down a little. "My patience is limited; tell me how you're related to Tang San. I'm sure that you know that you have no chance of escaping from me. I've already sealed the laws of this entire plane, so even she won't be able to come in and rescue you."
Tang Wulin didn't know whom the burly man was referring to, but he could guess that this person was the owner of the giant silver claw that had saved him last time. Was that a soul beast as well?
"You're the Titan Giant Ape!" Tang Wulin suddenly said.
The burly man faltered slightly before asking, "Why do you say that?"
Tang Wulin replied, "Because of your extreme strength."
Having recently clashed with Yuanen Zhentian, he was well aware of what it was like to face ultimate strength. If Yuanen Zhentian had reached the pinnacle of strength, then this man had mastered the law of strength.
The burly man's brows furrowed slightly. "Answer my question."
However, Tang Wulin continued with his analysis. "If you're the Titan Giant Ape, then your name should be Er Ming, right?"
A reminiscent look appeared in the burly man's eyes upon hearing this, and he murmured, "It's been many years since anyone's called me by that name."
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, then continued, "If you're Er Ming, then I can tell you that Tang San is my father."
Tang Wulin felt chills run down his spine as he uttered those words. This was an indescribable sense of excitement, and it stemmed from the fact that this was the first time he was admitting to anyone that Tang San was his father.
Even he didn't know what other emotions were intermingled with this excitement, but he knew that in that instant, he was immensely proud, proud of having such a father.
The burly man's hands instantly balled up into tight fists, and he asked in an incredulous voice, "You're Tang San's son? Tang Wulin... Does that mean Tang Wutong is your sister?"
A complex look appeared in Tang Wulin's eyes. "Is Tang Wutong her name? All I know is that I have a sister."
"Come with me!" Instead of asking any further questions, Er Ming waved a hand toward Tang Wulin before rising up into the air.
Tang Wulin followed along behind him, and was led away into the distance.
Perhaps it was due to the aura emanating from Er Ming's body, but no soul beasts dared to approach them. Every part of the forest that Er Ming passed through seemed to be extremely quiet.
Tang Wulin's heart was filled with excitement. He had been searching for an opportunity to enter the Myriad Beast Plane again in order to verify the identities of these two, and his wish had been granted.
At this point, he had calmed down a little, and he was even more convinced about the authenticity of their identities as only they would be aware that the Bluesilver Emperor martial soul belonged only to Tang San. It was exactly because they were extremely familiar with his father that they had sought him out over something like this.
In a sense, it could be said that Er Ming was the original ancestor of Yuanen Yehui's family.
On top of that, they were good friends of his parents, so they definitely weren't going to hurt him. With the power that Er Ming had displayed, he would benefit the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy immensely if Tang Wulin could garner his support. However, it seemed that he harbored a lot of resentment toward humans, and that was quite troublesome.
Of course, the most important thing now was that he had found a legendary figure who truly knew his parents! He would be able to gather more information about his parents from them, and that would assist him greatly in his search for his parents in the future.
Er Ming brought Tang Wulin to the small lake that he had been to once before, then descended beside the lake.
"I've brought him back, Big Brother!" Er Ming yelled.
The surface of the lake rippled and surged, and a massive cow's head slowly emerged. In contrast with a normal cow's head, this head was proportionally slightly narrower, somewhat resembling a dragon's head, and it was entirely azure in color with countless fine scales riddling its surface.
As the giant head appeared, the entire lake was illuminated by azure light, and in the next instant, the azure light had risen up into the air before landing beside Er Ming and Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin focused his gaze and discovered that this was a tall and broad man who was giving off a peculiar yet barely detectable aura. It wasn't a powerful aura; it simply seemed like it was a part of this world to begin with.
It was exactly due to Tang Wulin's exceptional spiritual power that he was able to sense that as this man appeared, the entire space in the surrounding area seemed to have undergone some type of change.
In a sense, it could be said that Er Ming and this man were the planar rulers of the Myriad Beast Plane.
Tang Wulin had absolute confidence in this assessment as it was the only explanation for this feeling that he was currently experiencing.
This was something that he had never felt from any powerful being he had encountered in the past, and it could be said that in this plane, they were true gods; even Infernal King Douluo Harosha wouldn't have a sliver of a chance of defeating them here.
The Sky Azure Bull Python stared intently at Tang Wulin, as if he were trying to see right through him. Meanwhile, Er Ming said, "He says he's Tang San's son."
The Sky Azure Bull Python's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. "How can you prove that?"
Tang Wulin replied, "If you really are friends of my parents, then of course I can verify my identity, but how can you prove to me that you are still the same friends my parents once had?"
The Sky Azure Bull Python smiled, and said, "You have no choice here; only by proving your own identity can you hope to survive."
