Chapter 93 Gu Yuena: We Have No Other Choice!
"A common enemy?"
Gu Yuena frowned; she couldn't think of any common enemy they could possibly have.
"Has Your Excellency the Silver Dragon King forgotten why you came to Douluo Continent and went into hiding?"
Kong Xuan's question stirred up Gu Yuena's past memories.
A glint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes as she gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I won't forget!"
As demigods of the Dragon God, the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King were incredibly powerful, so the one who besieged them was none other than the supreme god-king of the divine realm.
Especially that Asura God, who exuded terrifying killing intent and wielded a scarlet longsword; Gu Yuena's most severe injuries were inflicted by him.
So how could she possibly forget!
Kong Xuan is a deity from another world. Could it be that he was also "hunted down" by the divine realm because of this?
If that's the case, then they do indeed have a common enemy.
Seeing the understanding look in Gu Yuena's eyes, Kong Xuan didn't know what she had thought of, but he could feel that she had gained more trust in him.
Kong Xuan then asked, "You must also know about the war of the gods on the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago, right?"
Gu Yuena naturally knew that she had suddenly awoke from her slumber beneath the Lake of Life and sensed the presence of at least seven deities.
This is on the Douluo Continent, not the God Realm.
With so many divine presences appearing all at once, Gu Yuena thought that her whereabouts had been discovered and that the divine realm had come to besiege her!
Fortunately, no deities descended upon the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. Gu Yuena breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had escaped a calamity.
Gu Yuena recalled the scene she had experienced and said, "The world lost its color, and I instantly became a god. I sensed the aura of a divine war, and at least two gods perished."
Kong Xuan nodded and continued, "One of the gods who became gods ten thousand years ago was the chosen one of destiny on the Douluo Continent at that time, and eventually held the dual godhood of Sea God and Asura God."
"Now he is a member of the Divine Realm Council, a God-King with supreme power and authority."
Gu Yuena's eyes widened instantly, and only one thought crossed her mind: "The biggest enemy has changed?!"
Ten thousand years ago, these powerful soul beasts in the core circle of the Star Dou were all asleep, and they knew little about the outside world.
Gu Yuena only learned from Kong Xuan's explanation that the Asura God of the God Realm had already passed on his divine position, and that the current Asura God had been replaced.
Noticing the change in Gu Yuena's expression, Kong Xuan added, "This new God King now regards Douluo Continent as his own backyard, leaving behind many methods on the continent, and often spying on the lower realms."
"If I show strength exceeding that of a Title Douluo, he will definitely find out. He absolutely will not allow variables like you and me to appear in the Douluo Continent he has planned!"
Kong Xuan didn't continue speaking. He believed that with the Silver Dragon King's extraordinary wisdom, he should be able to figure out the key point.
"For nearly ten thousand years, I have frequently sensed the probing of the divine realm. So that's how it is!"
Gu Yuena, after considering what Kong Xuan said, also understood some things, which could be considered as indirectly confirming Kong Xuan's statement.
Since they share a common enemy, they are naturally allies.
To be honest, Gu Yuena hadn't expected the conversation to go so smoothly.
Kong Xuan not only harbors no ill will towards soul beasts, but the two sides may even cooperate with each other.
A crisis has turned into a win-win situation; how can this not be a good thing?
Gu Yuena used her wisdom as a god-king to carefully consider the pros and cons of this matter.
Finally, he earnestly said to Kong Xuan, "As long as you have no ill will towards the soul beasts, and as long as what you have said is true, the soul beast race is willing to become your loyal ally!"
Kong Xuan's expression also became serious upon hearing this: "Words are not enough. How about we begin our cooperation after we successfully research a substitute for the spirit ring?"
Gu Yuena was surprised that Kong Xuan would say that. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
She saw Kong Xuan's sincerity in those words.
This made Gu Yuena even more convinced of the cooperation between the two parties, and at the same time filled her with anticipation for the future.
"Alright! Let's do as you say!"
We look forward to your research findings!
Gu Yuena lightly flicked her finger, and the silver barrier, invisible to ordinary people, silently dissipated, allowing the noise from the restaurant to return to their ears.
The other trainees continued chatting and laughing, enjoying their meals, seemingly oblivious to the unusual situation around them.
Gu Yuena stood up, her silver hair cascading down like a waterfall. She glanced at Kong Xuan with her purple eyes before turning and leaving.
Brigitte followed closely behind, her green dress swaying, and a faint sense of life seemed to flow through her, but it vanished in an instant, unnoticed by anyone.
Kong Xuan remained seated, his golden eyes reflecting the departing figures of the two.
His fingertips traced the rim of the porcelain cup; the scalding tea had long since cooled, and his mind began racing with plans for what to come.
The third installment of Douluo Continent, Legend of the Dragon King, and the fourth installment, Ultimate Douluo, are both intricately connected to the Dragon God.
If Naruto can be called the legend of the Sharingan, then Douluo Continent could very well be called the legend of the Dragon God.
Therefore, this collaboration with Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena is definitely a good thing for him.
In Kong Xuan's original plan, both the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and Dragon Valley were must-visit destinations.
With Gu Yuena's involvement, many things might become much simpler.
Gu Yuena and Bi Ji walked out of the restaurant, their shadows stretched sharp as knives by the light of the setting sun.
Brigitte recalled everything she had just heard, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "My lord, perhaps you shouldn't have made that promise."
Gu Yuena's silver hair was bathed in the glow of the sunset, and her purple eyes reflected Brigitte's complex expression: "You don't believe him?"
Brigitte's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment's thought, she said, "It's not that we don't believe him, but we still know too little about him."
Gu Yuena withdrew her gaze, looked at the sunset on the horizon, and said, "I have no other choice!"
Brigitte was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and then quickly followed in her footsteps.
Gu Yuena, standing a step ahead, gazed straight ahead and said as if talking to herself, "Even if Kong Xuan is lying to us, what can we do?"
"Should we fight him? Even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory."
"It will take tens or even hundreds of thousands of years to heal, by which time the soul beast will probably have no hope."
"Now we can only gamble, gamble that what he said is true, gamble that he is sincere in cooperating with us, and gamble on a more likely future!"
"As for my promise, if it can earn me a god-king level ally, I think such a risk is worthwhile."
Brigitte followed behind, listening to Gu Yuena's words word by word, without uttering a sound.
This time, she truly felt the growth of her master.
Bearing the weight of the rise and fall of the soul beast race on her shoulders, the pressure she faced was immense.
Making this decision was a compromise made out of desperation, but also a glimmer of hope amidst the chaos.
Bi Ji said solemnly, "I will send the message back to Xing Dou later. The Soul Beast Clan will definitely cooperate fully with the Master!"
Just as Gu Yuena said, they had no other choice!
