"Stop!" A clear, agile voice rang out. Gu Yuena could not bear to watch her kin die before her eyes!

The grand plan was not yet complete. She still had to endure!

"M-Master," Gu Yuena said softly.

Su Chen could not help but laugh. Why did she have to act so aloof? If she had just spoken properly, none of this would have happened, and Bear Lord would not have lost a paw.

Still, as long as no divine power remained attached, such an injury was very easy to treat. Su Chen had held back; otherwise, what he had cut off just now would not merely have been Bear Paw.

Su Chen smiled. "That's more like it. Serve under me, and we'll unify the continent. When the time comes, I'll reopen the path for soul beasts to become gods."

Gu Yuena was also somewhat shocked. There were seven gods outside! Back when everyone from Shrek had become gods, the commotion had been enormous. Naturally, Gu Yuena knew about it as well.

Unifying the continent was quite a daunting task!

Gu Yuena slowly said, "Why should I believe you?"

Hearing Gu Yuena's reply, Su Chen coldly said, "Because you have no other choice. There are only two paths: follow me, or die."

After pondering for a while, Gu Yuena seemed to have made an immense decision. "All right. I agree, Master."

Who would have thought that even the aloof Silver Dragon King could say such words? Su Chen stepped forward, pinched Gu Yuena's chin, and said, "Following me is the wisest choice you could make!"

With that, Su Chen directly tore open the clothing on Gu Yuena's back, revealing her snow-white skin.

Yet there was a deep sword scar across it, so deep that bone could even be seen.

The lingering Asura Divine Power continued to corrode Gu Yuena. That must have hurt terribly, yet she had endured it for so long.

Even with the aid of Essence of Life, such a wound would likely require at least tens of thousands of years to heal completely.

Su Chen placed his hand on Gu Yuena's back and began absorbing the divine power and sword intent left within her by the Asura Sword.

A few minutes later,

A faint red divine power appeared in Su Chen's hand, while Gu Yuena had actually recovered completely. To deal with an attack from a God King, it took a God King to resolve it!

After crushing the divine power in his hand, Su Chen said, "Get up. Your current strength should be enough to barely reach the level of a First-Rank God, right?"

Gu Yuena said, "Yes! But after some time, I'll be a little stronger than a First-Rank God. I still need to recuperate."

Gu Yuena was deeply grateful for Su Chen's help. If she had healed herself, it would have taken tens of thousands of years, perhaps even longer.

That bone-deep pain had made Gu Yuena hate the Asura God to the core!

Looking at the powerful man before her, she thought it would be better if his temper were a little nicer.

Su Chen coldly said, "Don't try to run. You now bear my God King Seal. Running will only lead to death."

Gu Yuena said, "I understand."

Su Chen said, "Report to God King Palace in one month."

With that, Su Chen directly crossed through space and left. The only reason he had departed in such a hurry was because it was already getting late—it was time for dinner!

After tidying herself up a little, Gu Yuena stepped out of the space. Looking at the fierce beasts, she slowly said, "In one month, we depart for the human world."

Sensing that Gu Yuena's strength had improved even further, Di Tian cried out in shock, "My Lord! Your injuries have recovered?"

"Yes." After saying that, Gu Yuena left directly. She still had more important matters to attend to.

Meanwhile, Su Chen was nearly home. Thinking of the two great beauties waiting there, he felt immensely satisfied.

Home was still the best. Unlike Gu Yuena, who was so cold.

At that moment, Hu Liena and the other woman were arranging the tableware, waiting for Su Chen to bring back the ingredients.

Seeing Qian Renxue busily at work, Su Chen felt warmth rise in his heart. So this was what it felt like to have a virtuous wife.

Su Chen hurried over to help. "Sister Xue'er, rest for a while. I'll do it."

Seeing that Su Chen had returned, Qian Renxue smiled as well. "Oh, come on. You're a grown man—how could you possibly be good at this sort of thing? Hurry up and take a bath. You're covered in that fishy smell."

For some reason, Qian Renxue had recently become extremely sensitive to fishy smells. Even catching the slightest whiff made her somewhat nauseous, so Hu Liena had been handling most of the cooking lately.

Hu Liena had even begun to suspect that Qian Renxue was pretending, but after seeing her dry-heave several times, she realized that Qian Renxue truly seemed unwell.

Who knew why? Could it be that she needed an injection?

After sniffing himself, Su Chen found that he did indeed smell of blood. He had killed several soul beasts, after all, so it was inevitable that some bloody scent had gotten on him. After handing the ring containing the ingredients to Hu Liena, he went to take a bath.

He did not even have time to speak to Hu Liena, which left her extremely dissatisfied.

Fuming, Hu Liena bared her sharp little tiger teeth. "This is too much! There's no justice! You two are all lovey-dovey, and I'm the only one being used as a tool! I'm going on strike!"

Qian Renxue smiled. "Oh, Su Chen still has you in his heart."

Hu Liena's eyes lit up at once. "Really? I feel that way too!"

Qian Renxue added, "Really! He didn't even forget to give you the ingredients before taking his bath."

"Ah! You bastard!" Hu Liena realized she had been played and immediately moved to settle the score with Qian Renxue.

After a round of playful scuffling, Qian Renxue said, "Nana, hurry and prepare the ingredients, or it'll get too late."

Perhaps Hu Liena was tired from playing around. She opened the storage ring Su Chen had given her and poured out the ingredients one by one.

A powerful aura instantly swept forth. The aura of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, and even fierce beasts beyond the Hundred-Thousand-Year level, rushed toward them. Qian Renxue immediately shielded Hu Liena behind her.

What had Su Chen done? The soul beasts inside were actually this powerful!

After pouring out all the ingredients one by one, the two women were completely stunned.

Hu Liena muttered, "The bird meat Su Chen mentioned... is this nearly Hundred-Thousand-Year Blazing Bird? That aerial overlord?"

Although Qian Renxue could hardly believe it either, the facts were right before her. Just what kind of market had Su Chen gone to?

Hu Liena pointed in shock at the massive giant ape arm before them, which still carried the aura of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

"This is the arm of the forest king, the Titan Giant Ape?"

Qian Renxue carefully sensed it before saying, "It should be that one. The aura is right. I encountered it before."

Hu Liena exclaimed, "Su Chen didn't go to a market at all! He clearly went to the Star Dou Great Forest!"

Hu Liena and Qian Renxue were now filled with countless questions. What exactly had Su Chen gone off to do, to bring back all these things?

Looking at the Bear Paw before them, its aura was even more powerful than that of the Titan Giant Ape. They had no idea where Su Chen had found it.

Qian Renxue had never even seen such a powerful bear-type creature.

Hu Liena said, "Xue'er, this Bear Paw should also be beyond the Hundred-Thousand-Year level, right?"
