Gu Yuena, the Lake of Life, Di Tian!

The next day.

Su Mu led Ye Lingling away from the Spirit Hall.

Thanks to Su Mu's insistence, Ye Lingling was not forced to join the Spirit Hall.

Golden Crocodile Douluo and a red-haired Ling Yuan stood on a rooftop.

Watching Su Mu disappear into the distance.

Have you thought it through?

"In that case, even if you die..."

"He'll never know," Golden Crocodile said, glancing at Ling Yuan beside him.

"Um."

"Go." With that, Golden Crocodile Douluo turned and disappeared.

The red-haired Ling Yuan hovered at a distance behind Su Mu's carriage, following at a comfortable distance.

The next day, when I returned to the Small Courtyard, it was already afternoon.

Ye Lingling did not return to the Small Courtyard, but went back to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy first.

Su Mu didn't go to find Gu Yuena first.

I went back to my room first and took a look around.

Zhu Zhuqing is not here.

However, he left behind a letter.

After reading it, Su Mu learned that Zhu Zhuqing had returned to the Star Luo Empire.

Su Mu is not worried about Zhu Zhuqing's safety at the moment.

Even without the endorsement of Golden Crocodile Douluo, her current qualifications would still earn her considerable attention.

After putting down the letter in my hand.

Su Mu walked out of the room.

Gu Yuena had arrived in the courtyard at some point.

Silver hair and purple eyes.

This time, for the first time ever, she didn't wear pajamas, but instead wore a dress made of silver and purple.

Just like when Su Mu first met her.

"What's the matter that you called me back?"

Su Mu looked at Gu Yuena, hesitated for a moment, and asked.

I want to take you somewhere.

Gu Yuena said.

"Um?"

Su Mu was quite surprised; this was the first time Gu Yuena had said she wanted to take him somewhere.

This is the first time since I've met her.

Gu Yuena didn't explain anything.

She slowly walked up to Su Mu.

Just as Su Mu was still wondering, Gu Yuena raised her hand and wiped Su Mu's forehead.

A burst of intense silver light enveloped Su Mu.

Su Mu looked at Gu Yuena, whose eyes were as calm and unfathomable as still water.

A chill ran through me.

That look in her eyes... that's Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena.

Su Mu wanted to release his Martial Soul, but he was enveloped in this silver light.

Su Mu seemed to have lost his connection with his Martial Soul.

The Soul Power within the body could not be mobilized.

Gu Yuena looked at Su Mu, a smile playing on her lips.

Then, Gu Yuena raised her hand again, and Su Mu, unconscious, closed his eyes.

"Come out!"

Gu Yuena spoke in a cold and authoritative tone, turning her head to look behind her.

At this moment, Ling Yuan, with her full head of red hair, emerged from the shadows in the distance.

"What are you up to?"

Ling Yuan looked warily at the silver-haired girl in front of her.

Although she looked to be about the same age as Su Mu, Ling Yuan knew Su Mu's strength.

Even if she herself were to face Su Mu, she would only be killed.

The reason I followed Su Mu was just in case.

At a critical moment, they would help Su Mu catch his breath, even if it meant risking their lives.

But the silver-haired girl in front of her made her lack any courage to make a move.

"Oh? What a great opportunity!"

"The scruffy chicken has turned into a scruffy bird."

Gu Yuena's expression remained unchanged, and her voice was ethereal, as if the words were not coming from her mouth.

Feeling Gu Yuena's gaze.

Ling Yuan's fingernails dug deeply into her palms, attempting to inflict pain.

To awaken one's fighting spirit.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt him."

You can just wait for him here.

"Remember to clean my room, or I'll make you regret it when I get back."

A melodious voice came from behind, Gu Yuena had already turned around.

Enveloped in silver light, Su Mu slowly floated up.

They disappeared towards the Star Dou Forest.

After a long while, Ling Yuan, with her red hair, let out a long breath.

My back was drenched in sweat.

He looked relieved.

After recovering, Ling Yuan's Soul Power surged.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black.

Nine Soul Rings appeared.

A Phoenix -shaped Martial Soul formed of flames appeared behind him.

The surrounding temperature rose considerably after the appearance of this Martial Soul.

Ling Yuan looked in the direction where Gu Yuena had disappeared and chased after her.

On the other side.

Star Dou Great Forest.

Soul Masters kept fleeing in haste.

Start with the core area.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, all the Soul Beasts...

It was as if they had all received some kind of order: to drive away any human Soul Masters they saw, and to kill any who were reckless.

On the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, a silver-haired girl.

They were slowly walking in against the flow of people and the tide of beasts.

Originally, these were Soul Beasts that would kill any human they saw.

Upon seeing the girl, they all prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling with fear.

Just then, a black vortex appeared in front of Gu Yuena.

A burly man, two meters tall and dressed in black armor, stepped out.

Upon seeing Gu Yuena, the man knelt down on one knee.

He bowed his head respectfully. "Di Tian greets Your Majesty!"

Gu Yuena nodded.

His expression remained unchanged.

After glancing at Di Tian, Gu Yuena slowly walked to Di Tian side.

He sat down on Di Tian's shoulder.

Di Tian slowly stood up.

Like a mount, it carried Gu Yuena deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest.

Along the way, all the Soul Beasts.

Upon seeing Di Tian, they all prostrated themselves on the ground and lowered their heads.

I didn't dare to look up and meet your gaze.

Soon, Di Tian brought Gu Yuena to the Lake of Life.

Di Tian stepped on the surface of the lake and slowly continued walking towards the center, as if he were walking on flat ground.

Although the Lake of Life is the core of the Star Dou Great Forest.

However, there is still a difference between the edge and the center.

Even creatures like the Sky Azure Bull Python, which can go into the water, can only stay at the edge of the lake.

Titan Giant Apes, which have just entered the core area, can only cultivate on the shore.

As Di Tian ventured deeper...

Many Soul Beasts emerged from the Lake of Life.

They worshipped Gu Yuena.

Finally, Di Tian walked onto a piece of land that was neither clearly a rock nor a small island.

He slowly knelt down on one knee again.

Gu Yuena slowly stepped down from Di Tian's shoulder.

He then coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"My lord!"

When Di Tian saw Gu Yuena like this, he went over to help her up.

"Fine!"

Gu Yuena glanced back at Di Tian, who was about to get up.

He knelt down again.

"Wait, I'll remove my seal."

"Seal him off."

"Wait for me to wake up."

Gu Yuena wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and pointed at Su Mu.

The silver light that had enveloped Su Mu then disappeared.

Gu Yuena plunged headfirst into the Lake of Life.

As the silver light disappeared.

A wave of oppressive power began to emanate from Su Mu.

The Soul Power and Martial Soul that had been suppressed in the Small Courtyard were about to be released.

Di Tian wasn't initially very concerned.

After sensing the aura emanating from Su Mu.

Di Tian was shocked.

He quickly raised his hand, and black light instantly enveloped Su Mu.

Just when Di Tian thought that would be enough...

The black light that originally enveloped Su Mu's body was like a balloon.

It expanded rapidly.

It looks like it's about to break through the seal.

Upon witnessing this scene, Di Tian's vertical pupils constricted sharply.

A black dragon scale flew off his body.

It slowly merged with the black light that enveloped Su Mu.

Seeing that Di Tian had calmed down, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now I understand why Gu Yuena coughed up blood earlier.
