This was the first time Huo Yuhao had completely seen Gu Yuena's pure and beautiful figure, her outlined curves incomparably moving.
Even though they had already had a night of pleasure, the blood in Huo Yuhao's entire body seemed to be ignited again, and he hugged her slender waist without any scruples.
Feeling his still violent aura, Gu Yuena was instantly startled, her pretty face blushing as she asked, "How do you feel now?"
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao first sensed the condition of the Golden Dragon King's blood and qi in his body. That violent Golden Dragon King origin essence seemed to be temporarily suppressed by the Silver Dragon bloodline and the Dragon God Core on Gu Yuena's body.
More importantly, they were lying on the cross-section of one end of the Dragon Ascension Pillar, while the other end was buried deep in the dragon graveyard by Gu Yuena to stabilize the Dragon Realm.
The exposed part of the Dragon Ascension Pillar was like a large nine-colored circular bed with a diameter of over ten meters. Huo Yuhao was placed within it, and the surrounding energy fluctuations continuously washed over him like surging waves.
The Dragon Ascension Pillar emitted an ancient and mysterious light, the light wrapping around Huo Yuhao like silk threads. Relying on his strong will, he guided the power of the Dragon Ascension Pillar to gradually penetrate his bloodline. Under the soothing power of the Dragon Ascension Pillar, every inch of his bloodline gradually stabilized.
As the light flickered, Huo Yuhao's aura became increasingly steady, and his body also emitted a faint golden halo, echoing the light of the Dragon Ascension Pillar.
"This is just the beginning," Gu Yuena parted her red lips, opening her mouth to remind him.
"Next, I need to gradually guide the Golden Dragon King bloodline in your body into mine. This will be a fairly long process."
"Will it be dangerous for you?" Huo Yuhao stared intently at the expression on her face. "Although we currently possess both the Dragon Ascension Pillar and the Dragon God Core, two great Super Divine Tools, becoming the Dragon God is not something that can be achieved overnight. As half of the Dragon God, you should know clearly what the Dragon God once faced."
Hearing his stern yet caring words, a sweetness welled up in Gu Yuena's heart, though she didn't show much of it on her face.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Gu Yuena said to comfort him.
"The Dragon God is too powerful and will inevitably attract the attention of the universal laws. Moreover, the inheritance of the Dragon God is not that easy to pass. I think you should be clear about all this," Huo Yuhao continued. "Furthermore, even the energy inside the Dragon God Core is not enough to support you becoming the Dragon God again."
"So, I suggest you just keep the Golden Dragon King bloodline in your body for now. Wait until the God of Destruction and the others find the Abyssal Plane, and then I will use the World Tree to transfer the energy of the Crimson Mother into the Dragon Realm, giving you enough energy to advance to the Dragon God."
"Alright, I'll listen to you," Gu Yuena smiled radiantly. "It's just that by doing so, I will very likely enter an atavistic state and fall into a deep sleep. I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you on your journey to the Abyss."
"This was our agreement from the beginning. You and Di Tian and the others have helped me so much all along. I won't let the efforts of the soul beast lineage go to waste." Huo Yuhao smiled. "Besides, the excess divine power the Golden Dragon King accumulated in the Divine Realm is enough for me to clash head-on with a First-Class Deity like the Abyssal Sage King."
"Just keep acting tough. I see through you, you're coveting their Super Divine Tool, the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Halberd, aren't you?" Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him, little knowing that her current posture was full of amorous charm.
Huo Yuhao stared blankly, murmuring, "Nana, you're so beautiful..."
"Bah!" Gu Yuena turned away. "What Nana, are you calling that little maid of yours outside?"
"Uh?" Huo Yuhao just remembered that the girl from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy he had recruited as an intelligence spy earlier was also called this name.
"How did she become my maid?" Huo Yuhao instantly felt a mix of exasperation and amusement. He and she seemingly only had a cooperative relationship.
"Do you think, with your abilities and talent, the women on this continent can resist this temptation?" Gu Yuena poked Huo Yuhao's chest with her slender jade finger, her tone unfriendly.
"I understand," Huo Yuhao immediately reacted. "You must be jealous!"
"Hmph, you and I only have a cooperative relationship!" Gu Yuena turned her head away, putting on an aloof appearance.
Huo Yuhao chuckled and slowly hugged her from behind. Gu Yuena was startled by Huo Yuhao's sudden action, her delicate body stiffening.
"Yuena, thank you for everything you have done for me all along..."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's gentle words, Gu Yuena's delicate body involuntarily relaxed.
Indeed, ever since Huo Yuhao first went to the Extreme North, behind him stood the soul beast lineage, the invincible backing of this continent. It was precisely because of the Star Dou fierce beasts led by Di Tian and the hidden Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena that he dared to be so unbridled these past few years, living as the Demon King of the continent that terrified the world.
Ever since having the soul beast lineage as his trump card, Huo Yuhao no longer lived a life of cowering and hesitation like he did in the beginning at Shrek Academy. It was after the trip to the Extreme North that his otherworldly legend truly got on the right track.
The emotions of soul beasts are pure. In the process of interacting with them, Huo Yuhao forged a profound friendship, which was absolutely incomparable to the Huo Gua in the original timeline.
Once upon a time, even possessing a million-year Soul Spirit and a Rakshasa divine thought, he was forced into a miserable state by a single divine thought from God King Tang San. Now, after just a few short years, he had defeated the invincible Tang San head-on in front of the entire Douluo Continent and the Divine Realm.
If Bibi Dong and Tian Meng were the foundational layers of Huo Yuhao in this life, then the soul beast lineage led by Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena was the existence that fulfilled his invincible prestige.
"Why are you saying so much..." Gu Yuena's voice was as soft as a mosquito, a shy blush rising on her pretty face.
"Yuena, I love you..."
"Mmm..."
...
Rumble rumble...
The Dragon Realm began to violently shake again. A group of women stood on a nearby mountain peak, looking at each other in dismay, trembling all over.
"Hmph, look how scared you all are! So worthless!" Zhongli Yu snorted coquettishly, crossing her arms over her chest, causing a turbulent wave.
Among the women, those girls who were still maidens couldn't help but cast their gazes toward the experienced ones like Bibi Dong, Snow Empress, Ma Xiaotao, Die Qiu, Nan Shuishui, and Xian Lin'er, their eyes full of pity.
If they were really going to do it later, those experienced ones definitely had to go first...
"Was he this fierce in the past?" Ma Xiaotao began to doubt her life, murmuring to herself. Although she had already become a deity, looking at this commotion, she also began to doubt life. You know, the little Huo back then was completely under her control.
The other 'experienced' ones shook their heads one after another. No wonder Huo Yuhao had always dreamed of becoming a Dragon Knight; it turned out a Dragon Knight was actually this strong!
"Can I go out now?" Yu Mengdi swallowed hard, her legs involuntarily stepping back, only to be pulled back by Ye Guyi.
"What, who was it that said she felt sorry for her Demon King brother earlier?" Ye Guyi's expression was equally unnatural. The reason she was calmer than Yu Mengdi was that at least Huo Yuhao's branch martial soul had once...
"Dawayo, dattebayo..." Cui Yajie was completely frightened into speaking gibberish at this point.
Ning Tian, Wu Feng, and Nanmen Yun'er gathered together, their eyes equally strange.
"Will we die?" Nanmen Yun'er asked softly, stammering.
"Probably," Wu Feng was somewhat uncertain.
"We will die!" Ning Tian said with certainty.
Zhang Lexuan sighed softly. She was just afraid that afterward she might really have to go see her mom...
Jialin and the Snow Empress exchanged a glance, expressing incomprehension. One of them was a Dragon King and the other an Elf; both had extremely strong pressure resistance, so naturally, they didn't feel much about this.
Die Qiu kept muttering, "Qiu'er is not afraid, Qiu'er is not afraid, not afraid, not afraid..."
...A day quickly passed.
Under the premise of not affecting Huo Yuhao's foundation, the Golden Dragon King's origin bloodline was stripped out bit by bit by Gu Yuena. Even so, Gu Yuena was so tired that she was drenched in fragrant sweat. It would take at least a few more years of effort to completely strip the Golden Dragon King's bloodline origin from Huo Yuhao's body.
Huo Yuhao was in pain and happy—
Maybe another three years. He still couldn't quite forget the vice... uh, at least this time the objects were his own women.
"I can't take it anymore, I need a break!" Gu Yuena raised her hands in surrender, hurriedly withdrew, and collapsed directly to the ground.
As soon as the Silver Dragon King's aura left, Huo Yuhao felt as if he was about to burst into flames, experiencing incomparable agony.
The drawn-out Golden Dragon King's blood and qi made him wish he were dead.
"Switch! Next, Jialin, hurry!" Gu Yuena's urgent voice came from within the nine-colored light cocoon.
Jialin's pretty face blushed, and without hesitation, she prepared to fly towards the light cocoon.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Zhongli Yu intervened and stopped her, proudly lifting her snow-white chin: "There's no need for you, I alone am enough!"
Jialin gave her a strange look. Knowing this woman's temperament, she had to stop her movements.
"Darling, little Yu'er is coming!" Zhongli Yu almost transformed into a purple lightning bolt, rushing toward the light cocoon ahead of the others.
Half an hour later...
"Jialin... save me—"
Zhongli Yu's miserable voice came from within the light cocoon, causing a burst of heart-pounding terror among the women.
"Next!" Gu Yuena's cold voice continued to ring out. Jialin had to set off and fly toward the light cocoon.
"The rest of you get ready!"
The women shivered...
—
"Who awakens first from the great dream? I alone know my life... uh?"
When Huo Yuhao woke up from his violent state, he seemed to notice something. There appeared to be a soft entity lying entirely on top of him.
He couldn't help but look down, only to see a beautiful face with tightly knit brows, looking as if she had experienced some kind of pain and had already fainted.
"Ju, Ju Zi?" Huo Yuhao was instantly stunned. Ju Zi's skin was the best among the women.
Among the women, Ju Zi, being a food-type soul master, was the last to join the battle. Even so, she didn't last more than ten minutes.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously looked to his side, only to discover with horror that around him lay over a dozen smooth, delicate bodies scattered haphazardly.
Huo Yuhao was instantly dumbfounded. My god, what, what exactly happened here?
"You're awake. This is heaven, you know." Gu Yuena's cold voice came from behind, prompting Huo Yuhao to look up, just in time to see her proud chin and the playful expression on her face.
Even from a deadly angle, she was still beautiful beyond measure.
Huo Yuhao paused, not understanding what she meant.
"For your sake, they all paid a terrible price," Gu Yuena said leisurely. "You must cherish these girls."
"..."
With Gu Yuena saying this much, if Huo Yuhao still couldn't guess it, he would have lived all these years in vain.
Enduring the tearing pain from his body, he looked around. What met his eyes were impressively those girls who had once pledged their lives to him or had spent a long time with him.
Hmm... Wait! Why are Yu Mengdi, Ye Guyi, and Ghost Nana... What the hell is going on here?
Huo Yuhao only felt that his usually sharp brain was having a little trouble processing this.
"Among those girls you're not as familiar with, some truly like you, while others bet their futures on you. Especially that little Holy Angel girl; she actually held on for a full half hour under your violent Golden Dragon King blood and qi state." When Gu Yuena said this, there was a faint hint of a reminder.
In that state just now, if things had gone wrong, these girls might have even paid with their lives. Setting aside their feelings for Huo Yuhao, even the courage to bet themselves on Huo Yuhao required a massive internal psychological struggle.
Huo Yuhao stared blankly at these thoroughly disheveled women, a mix of complex feelings welling up in his heart. You must know, with their talents, placed anywhere on the continent, they were existences that would amaze everyone.
Even with a status as noble as the Silver Dragon King, how could she not want to monopolize Huo Yuhao's affections?
Knowing full well that he had numerous female confidantes, those girls who were maidens just yesterday still resolutely chose him. This deeply touched Huo Yuhao's heart.
The reason he had previously held off on conquering Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Nanmen Yun'er, Cui Yajie, and other girls of his age was to leave them room to choose their own partners. At that time, they were still just innocent little girls ignorant of the ways of the world, and Huo Yuhao didn't want to take advantage of their vulnerability.
The result was that their hidden affections, after years of fermentation, had become increasingly mellow...
He, Huo Yuhao, had to take responsibility.
"How much of the Golden Dragon King's origin blood and qi did you absorb this time?" Huo Yuhao didn't say another word about this matter, directly asking about the result of Gu Yuena's processing.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's calm eyes, Gu Yuena showed a sincere smile of relief. "I absorbed about a small portion. The beginning is always the hardest; later on, I am confident I can absorb it while you are in a controllable state. This will also give them a chance to catch their breath."
"Alright, I understand." Huo Yuhao gently put down Ju Zi, who was on him. "I'll leave them in your care. I'm going out to settle some matters and will be right back."
"Be careful on your way," Gu Yuena suddenly blushed and called out.
Huo Yuhao's whole body suddenly paused, a gentle curve unintentionally forming at the corners of his mouth.
"I'm heading out."
