The moment she entered the Star Dou Great Forest, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion swept her gaze over the surroundings like a monarch surveying her domain. Seeing her like this, Su Yu could not help but feel a little surprised. He had never seen the Three-Eyed Golden Lion act this way outside.
"Hehe, stop looking around. Hurry up, I'll introduce you to the Star Dou Great Forest." Bi Ji led Su Yu along, stopping now and then as she continuously introduced the Star Dou Great Forest to him.
The instant Zi Ji returned to the Star Dou Great Forest, she headed straight for the Lake of Life to inform Di Tian of Su Yu's arrival.
Di Tian looked solemnly at Zi Ji before him. "Zi Ji, you and Bi Ji did well this time. I will report this to the Master. All right, you may leave now. Oh, and remember to notify Bear Lord and the others."
Only after watching Zi Ji gradually walk away did Di Tian turn around and kneel on one knee by the edge of the Lake of Life.
"Master, Bi Ji and Zi Ji have completed their mission and brought the newly born Auspicious Beast back to the Star Dou Great Forest. However, for some reason, this Auspicious Beast is actually a human."
As soon as Di Tian finished speaking, a silver-haired girl who appeared to be around fifteen or sixteen emerged above the lake's surface.
The girl looked at Di Tian, who was kneeling before her, and parted her red lips slightly. "An Auspicious Beast is born of heaven and earth, so taking human form is also possible. Since he has been brought back, raise him well. With his existence, your strength will advance even further."
The girl's gaze seemed to pierce through space and time, landing directly on Su Yu as though she wished to see through him completely.
"Mm, a fine bloodline. This bloodline is in no way weak. If it can evolve further, it may not be impossible for it to reach my level."
After speaking, the girl could not help but sigh and quietly shake her head. She, the Silver Dragon King, was the Dragon God's incarnation. Su Yu's bloodline was indeed not weak, but it was still quite a distance away from reaching her level.
"Di Tian, once he arrives, bring him to see me." With that, the Silver Dragon King vanished from the lake's surface.
"As you command," Di Tian replied.
"So this is the Lake of Life?" Su Yu stared dumbfoundedly at the enormous lake before him.
The lake was filled with the aura of life. As he breathed it in, Su Yu felt as though every pore in his body had opened.
"It really is beautiful." Su Yu smacked his lips as he looked at the Lake of Life before him.
"Yes, it is very beautiful. The Lake of Life is the most beautiful place in the Star Dou Great Forest. Bi Ji, you may leave." While Su Yu was still dazed, a black figure appeared behind him and spoke in an indifferent tone.
Ding! Checked in with Di Tian. Obtained 2 Fishing attempts.
"My name is Di Tian. I am also the one in charge here, and I was the one who had Bi Ji bring you here." Di Tian did not beat around the bush and spoke directly.
"You're Di Tian? Bi Ji told me about you." As he spoke, Su Yu extended his hand, wanting to shake Di Tian's.
"Uh..." Di Tian looked strangely at Su Yu's hand, then awkwardly extended his own and shook it.
The moment Di Tian grasped Su Yu's hand, he sensed the pure Auspicious Beast Bloodline within Su Yu's body.
It truly is the Auspicious Beast Bloodline. The Master's senses were not mistaken. Though Di Tian thought this to himself, his expression did not change in the slightest. Instead, he looked at Su Yu and said calmly,
"Su Yu, come with me. I will take you to see the Master. The Master wishes to see you." After speaking, Di Tian walked toward the Lake of Life.
Su Yu followed closely behind Di Tian. However, the moment he entered the Lake of Life, he felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him. Before long, he was lulled to sleep by it.
When Su Yu woke up again, he saw a girl dressed in a white gown.
The girl had long silver hair cascading down her back. Her hair was soft and even possessed a crystalline texture. She had a beauty beyond words, a peerless face that no description could do justice to, pale fair skin, and purple eyes.
Ding! Checked in with the Silver Dragon King. Obtained 5 Fishing attempts.
So this is the Silver Dragon King? She really is beautiful. No wonder she's the number one goddess and richest woman on the Douluo Continent.
Su Yu looked at the girl before him, unable to hide his astonishment. Gu Yuena was simply too beautiful—so beautiful that it was almost unbelievable.
"You're awake. Then sit down. Let me introduce myself first. I am Gu Yuena, the master of the Star Dou Great Forest. I summoned you this time because you possess the Auspicious Beast Bloodline. I want you to join our Star Dou Great Forest. What do you think?"
Gu Yuena smiled as she spoke to the six-year-old child before her.
"Of course, if you join the Star Dou Great Forest, we will certainly nurture you to the fullest. However, we also have a condition. I hope that your future descendants can remain in the Star Dou Great Forest."
Gu Yuena stared at Su Yu. At the same time, she seemed to possess a special aura that made her impossible to refuse.
"I can join you, but I also want freedom. Once I have the ability to protect myself, I hope you can let me leave. After all, I cannot stay in the Star Dou Great Forest forever. What do you think?"
Su Yu nodded at Gu Yuena's words, but he still looked at her with a serious expression as he spoke.
"Is that so? Fine. I will not stop you from going out to gain experience. All right, you may leave now. Oh, and give me a drop of your blood." Gu Yuena agreed immediately before Su Yu had even finished speaking.
Su Yu nodded and directly used Soul Power to force out a drop of blood, handing it to Gu Yuena. As Gu Yuena looked at the blood in her hand, a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes, but she still looked toward Su Yu.
"All right, you may go. Di Tian will arrange a place for you to stay. Go on." As she spoke, Gu Yuena waved her arm, and the space around Su Yu instantly began to churn.
Su Yu's vision went dark again. When he woke up once more, he was already lying in a small wooden cabin.
Gu Yuena looked at the blood in her hand, and confusion rose in her eyes as she muttered to herself.
"That can't be right. Why do I feel a desire toward a single drop of blood? A desire to swallow it?"
A trace of doubt flashed through Gu Yuena's heart, but it quickly turned into resolve.
Gu Yuena raised her hand and swallowed it in one gulp.
"You're awake. You will live here from now on. The Master instructed me that once you are strong enough in the future and gain my approval, I may let you leave and go out to gain experience. However, your future descendants must remain in our Star Dou Great Forest. You promised this."
Without waiting for Su Yu to speak, Di Tian walked off into the distance.
"Di Tian, what am I supposed to do if I'm hungry?" Su Yu rubbed his stomach and asked Di Tian, who had already gone far away.
"There are fruits beside the Lake of Life. If you want meat, follow the Three-Eyed Golden Lion. She will go hunting." After saying that, Di Tian vanished from before Su Yu.
