Gu Yue Family, Gu Yue Chun Qiu

After dividing the spoils, Qian Gu Dong Feng and Qian Gu Huang Yu left the Spirit Ascension Platform together.

The metal cabinets opened. Qian Gu Huang Yu and Qian Gu Dong Feng had only just woken up and stepped out when they found Qian Gu Die Ting already waiting outside.

Qian Gu Die Ting's eyes were filled with both approval and puzzlement. Naturally, he approved of the two of them defeating the Junior Spirit Ascension Platform's guardian, the Forest Mammoth. By his original estimate, they would have done very well to hunt one or two ordinary Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

What puzzled him was how Qian Gu Huang Yu had managed to command the Blazing Azure Wolf pack. Naturally, Qian Gu Die Ting knew Ghidorah's two soul skills: Gravity Ray and Golden Thunder Prison. But neither of those had anything to do with controlling soul beasts!

However, Qian Gu Die Ting did not question them immediately after they came out. Instead, he casually handed each of them a cup of water.

Of course, this was no ordinary water. It was a Spirit Pagoda beverage specially made to help restore Spiritual Power. Having just left the Spirit Ascension Platform, both Qian Gu Huang Yu and Qian Gu Dong Feng were rather drained.

Qian Gu Die Ting first praised their outstanding performance in the Spirit Ascension Platform, then pointed out several shortcomings.

After a while, seeing that both had mostly recovered, Qian Gu Die Ting took the opportunity to ask, "Xiao Yu, tell me, how did you control those soul beasts?"

Qian Gu Huang Yu gently set down her drink. Since she had dared to use that ability, she naturally was not afraid of being questioned.

"This is one of the abilities of my Ghidorah Martial Soul. It allows me to communicate simply with soul beasts, which is why I could command the Blazing Azure Wolf pack in the Spirit Ascension Platform. Although the soul beasts in the Spirit Ascension Platform are simulated, they still possess the habits of soul beasts."

Qian Gu Die Ting nodded, evidently accepting Qian Gu Huang Yu's explanation. "It seems your Martial Soul can not only influence Beast Martial Soul users, but also communicate with soul beasts. That is truly unheard of. Unfortunately, soul beasts are already on the brink of extinction. Otherwise, this ability alone would have made you a key protected figure."

Qian Gu Huang Yu smiled and agreed, though she did not tell Qian Gu Die Ting the real reason.

Communication alone could not command soul beasts. Ferocious beasts could communicate directly with humans too, yet no human had ever been able to command one!

The greatest reason Qian Gu Huang Yu could command the Blazing Azure Wolves so easily was that they regarded her as a soul beast.

Because she possessed Ghidorah bloodline, Qian Gu Huang Yu's current situation was similar to Tang Wulin's. Although both had human bodies, their bloodlines leaned more toward soul beasts.

In other words, in the Blazing Azure Wolves' understanding, Qian Gu Huang Yu was a Ghidorah that had cultivated for Two Hundred Thousand Years and then taken human form.

Thus, to the Blazing Azure Wolves, Qian Gu Huang Yu had defeated their old clan head and naturally become their new clan head. That was why she could command them so effortlessly.

Still, there was no need to tell outsiders any of that.

Of course, in Qian Gu Die Ting and Qian Gu Dong Feng's eyes, hundred-year and thousand-year soul beasts were foolish to begin with. They had simply been beaten up by Qian Gu Huang Yu, fooled silly, and obediently sent off to work.

"All in all, you did very well this time, especially—"

Before Qian Gu Die Ting could finish, a figure rushed in frantically. He immediately ran to Qian Gu Die Ting's side, bent down, and whispered something to him.

At first, Qian Gu Die Ting was rather displeased to be interrupted. But after hearing what the visitor had to say, his brows knitted tightly together. It was clear just how much this matter worried him.

Qian Gu Dong Feng and Qian Gu Huang Yu exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes. They both recognized the man as one of Qian Gu Die Ting's trusted confidants. Otherwise, he would not have rashly barged in to report at such a time. But what could possibly make Qian Gu Die Ting, who stood at the pinnacle of both the soul master world and political power, lose his composure like this?

Qian Gu Die Ting immediately rose to his feet and said to Qian Gu Huang Yu and Qian Gu Dong Feng, "Let's stop here for today. I have some matters to handle."

The moment he finished speaking, Qian Gu Die Ting left with that man.

At Spirit Pagoda headquarters, a conversation was underway in Leng Yang Jun's office.

Leng Yang Jun sat across from a man, while a girl stood beside him.

The man had long black hair, as deep as the darkest night sky. It was smooth and lustrous, falling softly around him.

His violet eyes were deep and spirited, as though they could see into one's heart. They carried a sense of resolve and wisdom.

His facial features were sharply defined, like a work of art carefully carved by a sculptor. A high nose bridge, a clean jawline, and nearly perfect features formed an exceptionally captivating face. Yet his skin held an unhealthy, cold pallor, contrasting starkly with his dark hair.

But even more breathtaking was the girl standing beside him.

The girl possessed silver hair as pure as moonlight. Soft and silky, it fell gently to her waist. Under the lights, her long silver hair shimmered faintly, as though every strand contained the radiance of stars.

Her eyes were clear and bright, like two dazzling violet crystals, glimmering with curiosity and innocence. Her skin was white as snow, touched with a healthy rosy hue, as though she were nature's most exquisite creation. Her delicate, gentle features, petite nose, and rosy lips formed a flawless face.

If Qian Gu Huang Yu had been here, she would certainly have recognized Gu Yuena and Di Tian, who had concealed their auras and infiltrated the human world.

With the support of the many divine artifacts within Qian Gu Huang Yu's Gate of Babylon and an endless supply of Fountain of Youth, Gu Yuena had taken only two years to recover from her injuries and emerge from seclusion.

After Qian Gu Huang Yu broke through to become a Soul Grandmaster, she discovered that she could temporarily lend the divine artifacts within the Gate of Babylon to others. With the assistance of those artifacts, Gu Yuena and Di Tian successfully concealed their soul beast auras, acquired human identities, and joined the Spirit Pagoda.

"Silver Dragon Martial Soul, with seven Extreme Attributes—water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space. Truly, each generation surpasses the last!"

As Leng Yang Jun spoke, his gaze at Gu Yuena was filled with admiration. When his subordinates had reported that a soul master with seven Extreme Attributes wished to join the Spirit Pagoda, he had not believed it. Now that he had seen her for himself, her reputation had proven entirely true.

It was no wonder Leng Yang Jun was excited. This Gu Yuena had not undergone the split into Gu Yue and Na'er, nor had she concealed her talents. She possessed the Silver Dragon Martial Soul and seven Extreme Attributes. Who would not be stunned by that?

Di Tian said calmly, "Tower Master Leng flatters her. No matter how good one's talent is, it ultimately depends on future development."

Leng Yang Jun smiled. "Brother Gu Yue is absolutely right. But I dare guarantee that the Spirit Pagoda will provide her with the best platform and resources. You certainly will not regret today's choice."

Qian Gu Huang Yu had once told Di Tian about a powerful figure she had met in her previous life as the Star Devouring God King, someone known as the Great Love Immortal Venerable, whose surname had been Gu Yue. According to Qian Gu Huang Yu, although the Great Love Immortal Venerable was human, he had protected other races from human persecution and promoted unity among different races.

Inspired by this, Di Tian simply adopted Gu Yue as the surname for their disguised human identities.

Incidentally, Di Tian's disguised identity was Gu Yue Chun Qiu, clan head of the Hidden Family known as the Gu Yue Family. His Martial Soul was the Nether Dragon Emperor, and he was a Level 99 Limit Douluo Quasi-God. He was also Gu Yuena's nominal father.

Dear readers, put your wise minds to work and come up with a title for Di Tian. It's definitely not because I ran out of ideas!
