Negotiations with the Silver Dragon King
Is this really me?
Qian Ren Xue felt the changes in her body with some disbelief. She was absolutely certain that this was the god level. Even the Angel God position, which had already been shattered, had been restored.
Ever since her God position had shattered in her previous life, she had tried countless times to repair the Angel God position and become a god once more. Only then could she resurrect Qian Daoliu, Bibi Dong, and the priests who had died fighting at Jialing Pass to protect her after she went to the God Realm.
But those attempts had undoubtedly all failed. Only after becoming a god could one repair a God position, yet without a God position, one could not become a god. It was a complete paradox.
Could she already be a god? Or had she once been one?
If I'm already a god, does that mean I can resurrect Mom and Grandpa?
But Qian Ren Xue was soon disappointed. She discovered that using the power of the Command Spells to break through and become a god was not permanent. It would only last for an hour.
Qian Ren Xue buried all her surprise and questions deep in her heart. She absolutely could not let the Silver Dragon King and Di Tian see her weakness now.
Clang!
The Angel Holy Sword left its sheath, its radiance like a blazing sun illuminating the entire space as brightly as day.
As the Angel Holy Sword was drawn, the temperature throughout the space rose. The Silver Dragon King bore the brunt of it, and even she felt some pressure from those god-level flames.
Since escaping the God Realm's pursuit, this was the first time a god-level powerhouse had targeted her.
"Master!"
Di Tian cried out, immediately tearing open space and stepping in front of the Silver Dragon King.
His duty as the Beast God made him choose to face an enemy he could not possibly defeat.
"Qian Ren Xue, you're alive? How is that possible?"
Di Tian recognized the woman before him. The unrivaled holy power, the scorching heat as though a blazing sun had descended, and that iconic Six-winged Angel Martial Soul—all the evidence pointed to Qian Ren Xue, the Angel God from Twenty Thousand Years Ago.
But hadn't she died long ago?
"Di Tian, stand down."
The Silver Dragon King's voice remained ethereal and pleasant, sounding utterly calm, as if she were not the one being threatened at swordpoint.
His golden dragon pupils looked doubtfully at the Silver Dragon King behind him, but all he saw in those amethyst-like eyes was composure.
In the end, Di Tian stepped back and no longer stood before the Silver Dragon King.
Qian Gu Huang Yu watched this with great interest. "Then can we speak as equals now, Co-Lord of Spirit Beasts, Lord Silver Dragon King?"
"Of course."
Due to her injuries and the suppression of the plane, the Silver Dragon King could currently wield strength only equivalent to that of a level-one-hundred-and-ten powerhouse without a God position.
Though Qian Ren Xue was only a level-one-hundred god at the moment, with the enhancement of her God position, her true combat power was also at level one hundred and ten.
Fighting now would benefit neither side. Even if the Silver Dragon King could kill Qian Ren Xue here, she would inevitably be injured as a result, and her time of emergence would have to be delayed.
But the spirit beasts could not wait another ten thousand years.
Seeing the Silver Dragon King yield, Qian Gu Huang Yu smoothly seized the initiative in the negotiations. "Silver Dragon King, though this meeting is somewhat abrupt, I do indeed have matters I wish to discuss with you." The greatest gamble had succeeded. To carry out the negotiations that followed, Qian Gu Huang Yu needed an identity that allowed her to stand on equal footing with the Silver Dragon King. That was why she deliberately referred to herself as "I" in the royal manner.
"But before that, could you turn into human form first? I have no habit of looking up at others."
Di Tian did not rebuke Qian Gu Huang Yu for her insolence. Being able to command a god-level powerhouse might have been nothing in the Dragon God Realm of old, but it was enough to negotiate terms with the current Co-Lord of Spirit Beasts.
"Fine."
Gentle yet dazzling silver light enveloped the Silver Dragon King's enormous body. The massive glow gradually shrank, and once it was reduced to the size of a single person, the silver radiance slowly faded away.
Her long silver hair draped behind her all the way to her ankles. Not only was it smooth and supple, it possessed the texture of silver crystal. Her beauty was beyond description; no words could adequately depict her peerless face. Her fair skin was slightly pale, and her eyes were violet. Even dressed in nothing more than an ordinary white shirt, she appeared exceptionally alluring. Her eyes were incomparably beautiful, framed by long curled lashes. Those violet eyes were clear and limpid, and especially when a trace of confusion appeared in her gaze, they inspired an irresistible urge to cherish her.
Qian Gu Huang Yu stared blankly for a moment. Though she had long prepared herself mentally, she still could not help losing herself before the greatest beauty on Douluo Continent.
But she was, after all, still in enemy territory, and Qian Gu Huang Yu forced herself to recover her composure.
"Human, what do you wish to discuss?"
Having changed from a spirit beast into human form, Gu Yuena's voice became even more pleasant. Like an orchid blooming in an empty valley, like the cry of a kite and the song of a phoenix; like wind brushing willow branches, low and gentle yet carrying a trace of pride.
What a captivating little vixen!
As she sighed inwardly, Qian Gu Huang Yu did not lose her bearing outwardly. Smiling, she said, "Let me correct you. I am not human. At least, I wasn't in my previous life."
With that, Qian Gu Huang Yu directly entered Martial Soul Possession.
A pair of golden dragon horns emerged from either side of Qian Gu Huang Yu's forehead. Her originally fair jade-like hands were covered in golden dragon scales, while bat-like golden dragon wings spread open behind her, accompanied by faint rumbling thunder.
What shocked Gu Yuena and Di Tian most was the change in Qian Gu Huang Yu's hair. A ferocious golden dragon head grew from each side of her golden hair.
"There may indeed be no such being among spirit beasts, but that does not prove you are not human," Gu Yuena said.
"Whether you believe it is your business. What I can tell you is that I do not need oxygen," Qian Gu Huang Yu said calmly.
The greatest difference between Ghidorah and the native creatures of Douluo was that Ghidorah did not need oxygen to breathe.
After all, Ghidorah was a genuine space monster. Where would there be oxygen in the universe for Base Shining Shining to breathe?
Gu Yuena fell silent, a rare occurrence. In her inherited memories, only god-level powerhouses did not need to breathe, and only god-level powerhouses could cross the universe with their physical bodies.
If the girl before her truly did not need oxygen to breathe, then she was undoubtedly an existence outside the evolutionary systems of Douluo Star and even the Dragon God Realm.
"Then I believe you."
Gu Yuena did not ask Qian Gu Huang Yu to prove herself, because the two of them were equals now. Neither held the advantage.
"I can also tell you that my Martial Soul is the true body I possessed in my previous life. From a certain perspective, I am of the beast race, just like you."
One statement stirred up a thousand waves.
