Flash Heavenly Emperor Teases the Silver Dragon King Again
Out of trust in her own kind, Gu Yuena did not question Qian Gu Huang Yu's words. After all, she had been born into the human world.
"Senior, do the others and I have to do this too?"
The accomplished came first. The Star Devouring God King fabricated by Qian Gu Huang Yu possessed the cultivation of a Supreme God King, while Gu Yuena at her peak had only been an ordinary God King. Naturally, she deserved to call her Senior.
Still holding Gu Yuena, Qian Gu Huang Yu said casually, "You don't need to call me Senior. Just call me Xiao Yu, like they do."
Though she said that, Qian Gu Huang Yu was already overjoyed inside. You threatened me back in the Star Dou Great Forest, yet now aren't you still obediently in my grasp?
She gently straightened Gu Yuena's body, and the two looked into each other's eyes. "Of course not. A normal person only needs one or two people they are especially close to."
Without waiting for Gu Yuena to speak, Qian Gu Huang Yu continued, "I know this may be difficult for you, so you only need to act close to me. After all, you're a genius! Geniuses are proud. We're both girls and of the same kind, so this isn't making things difficult for you, is it?"
Seeing Qian Gu Huang Yu's expression that plainly said, "I'm doing this for your own good," Gu Yuena nodded. "I understand, Xiao Yu. Thank you..."
A slender jade finger lightly pressed against her red lips, and Qian Gu Huang Yu revealed a gentle smile. "There's no need to thank each other between us. We're both wanderers far from home; helping each other is only right."
Seeing that the sincerity in Qian Gu Huang Yu's eyes did not seem false, Gu Yuena recalled how, from the moment she gained consciousness, she had been hunted by the other God Kings, then had hidden in the Lake of Life ever since.
"We're both wanderers far from home..." Gu Yuena murmured Qian Gu Huang Yu's words. Along with her gratitude, an unfamiliar emotion rose within her heart.
"Xiao Yu, did Di Tian and I affect your plans?"
Remembering how she and Di Tian had entered the human world before they could coordinate everything with Qian Gu Huang Yu, Gu Yuena could not help but worry.
After all, her own plan had been to join the faction of Qian Gu Die Ting, the Tower Master of Spirit Transmission Tower! Yet by a twist of fate, she had become Leng Yang Jun's disciple instead.
Qian Gu Huang Yu wrapped her arms around Gu Yuena's fragrant, soft body from behind once again. "There was a small accident, but overall, there's no problem. In fact, I originally planned for you to join Leng Yang Jun's faction anyway."
"But isn't your father the Tower Master?" Gu Yuena asked.
"That's true, but our Spirit Pagoda has its own internal dynamics. After ten thousand years of development, although the Spirit Pagoda practices a so-called democratic council system, that democracy is merely for show. In reality, absolute rule led by the Qian Gu Family and the Leng Family has long been established. For many generations in a row, the Qian Gu Family has served as Tower Master of Spirit Transmission Tower, while the Leng Family has served as Deputy Tower Master. Although the Zhang Family, which inherits the Netherflame Beast Martial Soul, also holds considerable power, they cannot guarantee that every generation will steadily produce a Limit Douluo, so they still cannot compare with us."
Seeing Gu Yuena's thoughtful expression, Qian Gu Huang Yu continued, "Although the Qian Gu Family is powerful, too much is as bad as too little. This generation already has my two brothers, Qian Gu Qing Feng and Qian Gu Dong Feng, both with Innate Full Soul Power, as well as me, an Innate Domain wielder. And as you know, Qian Gu Die Ting has also taken in Sister Xue'er, a Six-winged Angel with a God-tier bloodline. If we add you, with your seven Extreme Attributes, and Di Tian, a quasi-god, we may very well attract attacks from others."
Afraid that Gu Yuena might not remember Qian Gu Dong Feng and Qian Gu Qing Feng, Qian Gu Huang Yu added, "My two brothers were the ones sitting across from us tonight, the two who nearly started fighting."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly. "A tree that rises above the forest will be destroyed by the wind; a mound that stands above the shore will be washed away by the current. Being too conspicuous naturally invites disaster."
Qian Gu Huang Yu continued, "Besides, according to the unspoken rules of recent years, the Qian Gu Family only has one Tower Master position. In other words, if you became Qian Gu Die Ting's disciple, you could only compete with me, my brothers, and Sister Xue'er for that one Tower Master position. Otherwise, like my aunt, you could go across the sea to become the Tower Master in the Star Luo Empire. But the Star Luo Empire is far from the center of power, which would not benefit what we need to do next."
At this point, Gu Yuena naturally understood Qian Gu Huang Yu's meaning. "So you want me to become Leng Yang Jun's disciple, then obtain the Deputy Tower Master position at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, which is inherited by the Leng Family?"
"Snap!"
Qian Gu Huang Yu snapped her fingers. "Exactly. When the time comes, I'll be the Tower Master, and you'll be the Deputy Tower Master. Wouldn't that make the Spirit Pagoda ours?" Gu Yuena pondered for a moment, then added, "And to preserve his family's power, Leng Yang Jun will certainly pass that position on to me. If you become Tower Master, Xiao Yu, then aside from me, Leng Yang Jun cannot produce a single candidate capable of matching Qian Ren Xue."
That was also one of the reasons Leng Yang Jun had accepted Gu Yuena as his disciple. He was not confident that Leng Yao Zhu or Leng Yulai could surpass Qian Ren Xue, who possessed a God-tier Martial Soul. Gu Yuena was different; the Silver Dragon King's talent was simply too terrifying.
No matter what, as long as Gu Yuena was Leng Yang Jun's disciple, their connection would remain, making things much more convenient in the future.
Moreover, Douluo Continent's culture placed great importance on one's master and lineage. If someone committed an act of betraying their master and ancestors, they would be cutting themselves off from all righteous factions.
As Qian Gu Huang Yu stroked Gu Yuena's smooth silver hair, she praised her, "Gu Yue, you're so smart. It seems you'll adapt to human life very soon."
"Oh, right, Gu Yue. I have some information for you too." As she spoke, Qian Gu Huang Yu released Gu Yuena and took a Soul Guide Mobile Phone from her Storage Ring, handing it to Gu Yuena.
"Once you have your own Soul Guide Mobile Phone, I'll send the information directly to you. But you can take a look at this first. It contains some information I gathered about the Sun Moon Federation. Much of it is internal Spirit Pagoda material, so you can read it first and get a general idea."
Gu Yuena had wanted to thank her, but remembering Qian Gu Huang Yu's words that there was no need to say thanks between them, she held it back and merely gave Qian Gu Huang Yu a gentle smile.
Gu Yuena took the Soul Guide Mobile Phone. After turning it on, she saw an eight-digit password field and asked Qian Gu Huang Yu, "Xiao Yu, what is this eight-digit password?"
"Your three measurements, but the measurements from when I first met you."
"How did you know?" An unnatural blush spread across Gu Yuena's face.
The corner of Qian Gu Huang Yu's lips curled up. She seemed to enjoy admiring Gu Yuena's embarrassed and indignant appearance. "Take a guess. Though there's no reward even if you guess right."
Gu Yuena turned her head away in a huff, refusing to look at Qian Gu Huang Yu, that little hooligan, and silently began trying passwords.
Before long, Gu Yuena handed the Soul Guide tablet back to Qian Gu Huang Yu. Her gaze drifted away, unwilling to look at her directly as she said somewhat awkwardly, "I entered 10259091 twice, and neither worked. If it fails again, it seems the screen will lock."
"Alright, now I know your three measurements." Qian Gu Huang Yu smiled.
"You!" Gu Yuena could not help becoming furious. She had not expected Qian Gu Huang Yu's personality to be so terrible.
Seeing that Gu Yuena was on the verge of bristling, Qian Gu Huang Yu immediately yielded. "I apologize, don't be angry! The password is your birthday plus mine. A friendly reminder: my birthday is February 14."
"When did you find out my birthday? You aren't trying to get information out of me again, are you?" This time, Gu Yuena reacted sharply.
Qian Gu Huang Yu smiled bitterly. "Do you really see me as that kind of person? Before coming here, I looked at the information form you filled out when you joined the Spirit Pagoda and remembered your birthday."
Gu Yuena stared blankly at Qian Gu Huang Yu, not knowing what was hidden within those amethyst-like eyes.
This time, Gu Yuena finally opened the Soul Guide tablet as she wished...
I couldn't find Gu Yuena's three measurements or birthday. If any readers know them, please let me know so I can revise this...
