Chapter 45 Gu Yuena's Caution!
Rumble—!!!
It was not thunder in the sky, but the roar of the earth.
The Starry Sky Forest, located at the heart of the continent, seemed like an ancient behemoth awakening from its slumber, letting out a terrifying roar.
An indescribable aura of malevolence, mixed with supreme dragon might, spread wildly outwards in a ring shape from the center of the Lake of Life!
The sheer power of this aura instantly plunged several human towns on the outskirts of the forest into panic.
"Earthquake?! Run!!"
"No! It's a soul beast! A monster from the Star Dou Great Forest is about to emerge!!"
The townspeople were in a panic; dust fell from the houses as they trembled, and livestock lay shivering on the ground, foaming at the mouth.
It was a suppression that came from the depths of one's blood, an instinctive fear of those at the top of the food chain.
Martial Soul City, Douluo Hall.
Sendou Ryu, who was praying before the angel statue, suddenly opened his eyes.
Two beams of golden light shot out from his eyes, as if piercing through the void, looking directly at the distant south.
"This aura—"
Qian Daoliu frowned, his aged face filled with solemnity.
The phantom of a six-winged angel appeared uncontrollably behind him, seemingly wary of some great enemy.
"Silver Dragon King—is that you?"
"Of all times—" Qian Daoliu sighed, his gaze shifting back and forth between the Star Dou Great Forest and the sky.
"The exposé of the heavens has revealed the existence of a powerful being, shattering the balance of the world. The soul beast race is probably not going to sit idly by any longer."
He gripped the scepter tightly, his knuckles turning white.
"I hope you will not act so quickly—the human world today cannot withstand the combined attack of internal and external troubles."
Give me some time, and give the world some time —
However, what Qian Daoliu was unaware of was that in the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, a meeting that was poised to change the course of the continent was underway.
Lake of Life.
This is a forbidden zone within a forbidden zone for humans.
Several enormous figures lay prostrate on the ground; they were the best of the Ten Ferocious Beasts: the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, the Emerald Swan Bi Ji, and the Demon-Eyed Demon Tree Ten Thousand Demon King—each of them could cause a Title Douluo to fall with a single stomp of their foot.
But at this moment, they all bowed their heads respectfully, not daring to breathe.
Before them, a stunningly beautiful woman with silver hair and purple eyes was floating in mid-air.
She was barefoot, her skin as white as snow, and surrounded by a seven-colored elemental storm. She was the ruler of all soul beasts, the Silver Dragon King—Gu Yuena.
"My lord! Humans have gone too far!"
Di Tian raised his enormous dragon head, his eyes burning with the flames of revenge.
"The power displayed by that sky curtain is terrifying, but it is, after all, power from beyond the heavens! With the human world still gripped by panic, this is the perfect opportunity for us to unleash a beast tide and reclaim our dominion over the continent! Please give the order, my lord; I am willing to be the vanguard and crush the Spirit Hall!"
"Please give the order, Master!!" the ferocious beasts roared in unison, their murderous aura soaring to the sky.
However, Gu Yuena did not speak.
Her purple eyes, which seemed to contain the stars of the universe, were simply staring silently at the name "Firefly" on the sky, her gaze terrifyingly deep.
After a long silence, she finally spoke, her voice clear and cold like a spring, yet carrying an undeniable authority.
"Di Tian, do you think you can withstand that attack?"
Di Tian was stunned. Following Gu Yuena's gaze, the scene of Sam detonating the power reactor and destroying billions of insect swarms involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
He opened his mouth, but his once proud dragon head drooped limply: "Your subordinate—no. That attack was enough to evaporate the entire Star Dou Great Forest."
"Yes, no."
Gu Yuena sighed softly and slowly descended from the sky, her bare feet stepping on the mirror-like surface of the lake, creating ripples.
"Although we possess god-level power, and I am even restoring the authority of the Dragon God, but—" She stretched out her slender finger and pointed to "TOP1" on the sky.
"On the human side, there is a being who surpasses the God King, and even surpasses the Dragon God at his peak."
"Destroying a planet—ha, even for the Dragon God back then, it would not have been an easy task."
And that girl named Ryuki could do it simply by piloting a mass-produced mecha.
A deep sense of apprehension flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes.
"If we start a war now, and anger that Firefly," causing her to side with humanity—do you think the Soul Beast race still has a future?
Upon hearing this, the ferocious beasts broke out in a cold sweat. Indeed, they had only thought of revenge, forgetting the biggest variable that the sky had just revealed!
An alien who is alive, living on the Douluo Continent, and possesses the power to destroy planets!
"Then—my lord, what should we do? Are we just going to give up like this?" Xiong Jun roared unwillingly.
"Of course not."
Gu Yuena's lips curled into a meaningful smile, and the apprehension in her eyes gradually transformed into a wise glint.
"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Since this firefly prefers a peaceful life, we must not disturb her peace, at least not now."
"Di Tian, issue the order to appease all the soul beasts and forbid them from leaving the forest without permission."
"As for me—" A flash of silver light appeared on Gu Yuena's body, and the suffocating dragon's might instantly subsided, transforming her into a seemingly ordinary yet noble human girl.
"I plan to personally lead a few people on a trip to the human world."
"I'm going to see just who this so-called Grammer Knights are. If we can bring them to our side—"
A glint of ambition flashed in Gu Yuena's eyes. If she could gain Liu Ying's help, what would prevent the destruction of the God Realm?
Why worry about the lack of thriving spirit beasts?
Just as various forces were stirring up trouble, the reward for first place finally descended upon the sky amidst the anticipation of everyone.
[Top Ten Martial Souls in Douluo Continent]
【TOP1—Fireflies】
[Ranking Rewards: Being Distributed]
[Reward: Peak Envoy!]
Dessert shop.
Firefly was holding a small spoon, preparing to eat the last bite of cake.
"This is----"
Firefly looked at her hands in surprise.
She felt a warm power coursing through her body. Liu Ying slowly closed her eyes, savoring the warmth.
She slowly opened her eyes, and a barely perceptible glint appeared deep within her originally pale green eyes.
"Peak of the Commander Level —"
Liu Ying murmured softly, her tone not filled with elation, but rather with a hint of helplessness.
She reached out and gently clenched her fist. A slight popping sound emanated from the air in her palm, as if the very fabric of space itself trembled in fear of her power.
"To be honest, I'm really not interested in becoming stronger."
Liu Ying looked out the window at the bustling crowd, at the ordinary people struggling to make a living.
"but----"
Her gaze hardened as she looked up at the sky, as if she could see through it the lurking dangers—whether they were restless soul beasts or human forces with their own hidden agendas.
"Since you've given it to me, I'll keep it."
"At least with this power, I can better protect this peace, and protect—the life I want."
