Dragon King of Apocalypse

Chapter 177: Heaven Spirit City

It only took them about six days to arrive at Heaven Spirit City. As expected, the place was still being rebuilt and was under construction.

After parking the car, Xu Lizhi, Tang Wulin, and Xu Xiaoyan began walking around the town. They wanted to see if they could find or spot Xu Xiaoyan's brother anywhere.

"I don't understand, why he isn't picking up his communicator."Mutter Xu Xiaoyan while glancing around.

"Maybe he is busy?" Xu Lizhi offered but for some reason Xu Xiaoyan wasn't sure about that. Sighing to herself, Xu Xiaoyan glance around one more time but then stopping when she saw Wulin staring off.

"Wulin is something wr-"

"Little Brother! You're here!"A voice rang out causing Xu Xiaoyan and Xu Lizhi to focus on the location.

Tang Wulin only sighed as he saw Liu Yuxin coming over to him with her hands still up in the air while smiling at him. He honestly didn't expect to see her here but at least this saves him time on contacting her later.

"We need to talk." Said Tang Wulin causing Liu Yuxin to slightly pout at him for not greeting her back.

"Why are your manners so bad."Mutter Liu Yuxin before turning her eyes onto both Xu Xiaoyan and Xu Lizhi.

"Are these your other friends? Of course, they are as I doubt you would be hanging out with just anyone." Said Liu Yuxin with a smile as she leans in.

Tang Wulin neither showed any reaction nor acknowledges the words of Liu Yuxin, no matter how "true" they maybe.

"Big brother, she is?" Questioned Xu Lizhi in a bit of confusion and surprise, as he felt she wasn't simple at all.

"Yes, little brother I'm?" Questioned Liu Yuxin with her smile turning more devious.

"Stop playing around and introduce yourself." Said Tang Wulin with a roll of his eyes causing Liu Yuxin to giggle.

"My name is Liu Yuxin. I was this little brother's dear senior back in Eastsea Academy." Said Liu Yuxin with a smile causing Xu Xiaoyan and Xu Lizhi eyes to widen.

Xu Xiaoyan was surprised because she had never seen Liu Yuxin before, although she had heard of her. One of the most popular and well-approachable seniors in the Academy, at the time and also one of the Academy talents.

'Still, how does she know Wulin?' Thought Xu Xiaoyan in confusion.

"I'm Xu Lizhi and this is -"

"Xu Xiaoyan." Said Liu Yuxin causing Xu Lizhi to blink his eyes.

"Wulin told you about me?" Questioned Xu Xiaoyan with a tilt of her head.

"How romantic that would have been right? Sadly, little brother hasn't reached that stage yet, but one could only hope."Said Liu Yuxin with a light laugh causing Xu Lizhi lips to twitch.

"So how?"

"Your big brother has been ranting about you for the past few months." Said Liu Yuxin causing Xu Xiaoyan eyes to widen in surprise.

"You know where my brother is!" Shouted Xu Xiaoyan with her eyes lighting up causing Liu Yuxin to only giggle at her reaction.

#

Countless amount of people was moving through the damaged city, as repairs and constructions were going underway. Even though it has been months since the city destruction, the rebuilding phase was still going on.

Of course, this was mostly because of the formless fear and apprehension that was flowing through the continent. As most of the people were scared of the Calamities making another return and finishing what they started.

"You knew my big brother while you all were in Eastsea Academy?" Questioned Xu Xiaoyan in surprise towards Liu Yuxin.

"Indeed, your elder brother sure knew how to swagger." Said Liu Yuxin with a small laugh as she begins telling Xu Xiaoyan of her brother antics and his flirting.

These inevitable caused black lines to form on Xu Xiaoyan's forehead when she started to realize how her brother mess around more than actually cultivating.

'It was no wonder dad is so hard on you! You useless brother!' Thought Xu Xiaoyan as she started berating him inside of her mind but then immediately realize why he did this.

Her brother Xu Xiaoyu had too much on his shoulder, with some of the elders and even their father wanting him to bring the clan to glory. As they found out his talent was even better than their father and so the pressure was hard on him even as a kid.

But after her spiritual awakening ceremony and the discovery of her martial soul. The whole clan believed and acknowledge she was vastly more talented than him.

This place even more pressure on his shoulder, as he now had to compete with the little sister he doted on and spoiled. It only got worse after her entry into Shrek and then into the inner court.

It didn't take them long to reach the place where Xu Xiaoyu was and to their surprise, he wasn't alone. There were a bunch of people standing around and supervising the workers, as they work on the buildings around.

'So they really are guarding this place.' Thought Xu Lizi after recalling Liu Yuxin informing them, why they were here.

It seems most of the Academies on the Douluo Continent have been sending their students to watch over the construction of the cities.

"Big brother!" Shouted Xu Xiaoyan when she saw her brother before running towards him.

"Xiaoyan? Why are you here?"Questioned Xu Xiaoyu in shock as he saw his little sister rushing towards him.

"Ahh, aren't they just adorable." Said Liu Yuxin as she saw Xu Xiaoyan smashing into her big brother's chest and causing them to fall.

"...Right."Mutter Tang Wulin with a shake of his head after seeing Xu Xiaoyu eyes bulging after Xu Xiaoyan smash into him.

He had a bit of sympathy for him, as he still remembers when Na'er kept on doing that whenever she saw him when they were younger. Although she still did it now, it was excessively rare nowadays.

Tang Wulin moved towards the bench that was close towards him and sat down. Xu Lizhi and Liu Yuxin quickly followed after, causing them to stare at the siblings and the workers.

"So! How long are you guys going to stay?"Questioned Liu Yuxin with a smile.

"Were not sure. The only reason we came here was because of Xu Xiaoyan." Said Xu Lizhi with a helpless smile before glancing at Tang Wulin.

"We will most likely continue training until she is done." Said Tang Wulin after thinking for a bit and then he shifted his gaze towards Liu Yuxin.

"I know, I will tell you everything later." Said Liu Yuxin causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

It was then that the siblings came walking over to them. Xu Xiaoyan with a beaming smile but Xu Xiaoyu was staring viciously at Tang Wulin as if he wanted to devour him.

"Ahh, an old overprotective brother scene." Said Liu Yuxin with her eyes lighting up at the thought of seeing something hilarious.

Tang Wulin and Xu Lizhi lips twitch but they didn't comment as the two siblings finally reached them. Xu Xiaoyan quickly introduces the to her brother and as she got to Tang Wulin, her brother instantly interrupted her.

"So you're the one that's dating my little sister." Said Xu Xiaoyu coldly as he stared at Tang Wulin causing Xu Lihzi to sigh before glancing at Xu Xiaoyan.

"You told him already?" Questioned Xu Lizhi towards Xu Xiaoyan.

"He already found out. It seems dad, and mom told him the news in advance."Said Xu Xiaoyan with a helpless smile, while slowly lamenting the fact she underestimated her parents.

"Hey did you hear me!" Shouted Xu Xiaoyu with a cold-glare yet, Tang Wulin blankly stared at him.

'Ahh. I forget!' Thought Xu Xiaoyan as she stares at Xu Xiaoyu yelling at Tang Wulin, who was disregarding him.

'Xie Xie did tell us that when they met Wulin. He would consistently ignore them and acted as if they didn't exist.' Thought both Xu Xiaoyan and Xu Lizhi with their eyes wide.

Liu Yuxin silently laughs as she watches the show of Xu Xiaoyu trying to get a response from Tang Wulin. It didn't take too long before Xu Xiaoyu gave up on trying to intimidate Tang Wulin.

Likely from both the lack of response and the knowledge he really couldn't do anything to him. Not only that but for some reason, he didn't want to harm or do anything ill to him.

This was strange considering he and his father didn't like the thought of their precious princess getting a boyfriend. So one could understand the shock of his aggression slowly leaving him and being replaced with peacefulness.

He already knew Xu Xiaoyan was able to not only fight their father but also beat him. To say he was shocked would be an understatement, as she was only eighteen and yet that terrifying.

Not only that but his mother told him, she was already a Spirit Sage. He recalled the helpless feeling of being surpassed by her and could only grudging accept it.

He had a bit of resentment at first but after seeing his sister for the first time in years. All of the resentment evaporated, and all he wanted to do was make sure she was ok.

"Oh? Done already?"Questioned Liu Yuxin with a smile causing Xu Xiaoyu lips to twitch as he knew she was having fun at his expense.

"What do you want." Mutter Xu Xiaoyu causing Liu Yuxin to lightly laugh.

Tang Wulin moved his gaze towards Xu Xiaoyan who was absently staring at the construction workers. He didn't say anything for the next few minutes while everyone was talking around him.

"Do you want to help them?" Questioned Tang Wulin after sighing and seeing she wasn't going to take action.

"Huh?"

"You have been glancing at the construction workers for a while now. Do you want to go and help them?" Questioned Tang Wulin causing everyone to turn their gazes towards them, which caused Xu Xiaoyan to flinch.

"If you want to help them, go ahead." Said Tang Wulin.

"...Wulin."

"Thank you." Said Xu Xiaoyan with a quick smile before standing up and running towards the people in front of them.

In the next few minutes, they all watched as Xu Xiaoyan began helping the Heaven Spirit City. From using her ice element to hold things in place, to carry around the heavy stuff and cheering them up.

"You're not going to go help her?"Questioned Xu Xiaoyu with a raised brow and a hint of disbelief.

"Nope," said Tang Wulin causing Xu Xiaoyu to raise a brow while giving Tang Wulin an incredulous look.

"Isn't Xu Xiaoyan your girlfriend?" Questioned Xu Xiaoyu causing Wulin to roll his eyes as he knew what he was implying.

If she's your girlfriend, shouldn't you be over there helping her!

"This is something she wishes to do, I won't interfere unless she asks." Said Tang Wulin causing Xu Xiaoyu to stare at him blankly.

"Why so-"

"Just as how you have your pride, so does she too. She is no longer the shy princess you knew as a kid." Said Tang Wulin in a light tone.

"I honestly don't know if your nice or an asshole." Mutter Xu Xiaoyu, causing Xu Lizhi to lightly laugh out loud.

"Nah, that just how our Wulin is. Bluntly truthfully and not one to beat around the bushes." Said Xu Lizhi and Liu Yuxin at the same time, while smiling.

Xu Xiaoyu blankly stared at them for a few seconds before shaking his head and sighing at these hopeless people.
