Douluo Ice and Fire Dragon Kings Reappear

"So Brother Lang Lei didn't know either."

"Don't repeat it..." Lang Lei said helplessly.

"Brother Lang Lei, what are you going to use them for?"

"I'm not sure whether it'll work yet..." Lang Lei did not answer directly. "Let me keep you in suspense for now."

"Oh~"

Lang Lei took two Honkai Shards from the System Space and directly pressed them into the Spirit of the Ice Dragon and the Spirit of the Fire Dragon.

In an instant, purple light enveloped the Spirit of the Ice Dragon and the Spirit of the Fire Dragon, and terrifying auras radiated from within.

"Little Griseo, put up a barrier!" Lang Lei said.

"Okay." Griseo nodded. The next moment, a colorful barrier enveloped the entire area.

Suddenly, two streaks of purple light shot into the deep pit with lightning speed. Before Lang Lei's astonished eyes, two enormous skeletons were dragged out of the earth.

Gradually, the purple Honkai light completely swallowed the skeletons, and two enormous cocoons appeared before Lang Lei.

The cocoons greedily devoured the surrounding Soul Power and nutrients. Even the ordinary herbs Lang Lei had not yet had time to pick all turned to ash.

About half an hour later, the cocoons slowly cracked open. Under Lang Lei's expectant gaze, one blue and one red figure stepped out from within.

"Don't look! Don't look!" Just as Lang Lei was about to behold a breathtaking sight, Little Griseo leaped onto his back from behind and covered his eyes.

"Hey, hey, hey! Little Griseo, why are you covering my eyes?!" Little Griseo's sudden pounce threw Lang Lei off balance, and he fell flat onto the ground, his vision swallowed by darkness.

"W-well... anyway, Brother Lang Lei, close your eyes first!" Little Griseo said hurriedly.

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to Little Griseo." Lang Lei was somewhat helpless, but he obediently closed his eyes.

After a flurry of activity, Lang Lei looked at the two tall, voluptuous women before him—one in a blue dress and the other in red—and finally understood what had just happened.

"Little Griseo..."

"Brother Lang Lei, you big pervert!"

"This isn't something I can control!"

"Hmph~"

"Master." ×2

"No, no, no, that's too weird!" Lang Lei thought he should not set a bad example for children, so he hurriedly had them change how they addressed him. "Hmm... call me Young Master from now on, and call Little Griseo Miss."

"Yes, Young Master." ×2

"Do you still have your memories from before?" Lang Lei asked curiously.

"Young Master, we retain some fragments of memory, but it feels as though we are watching someone else's memories. They give us no real sense of familiarity." The woman in the blue dress answered respectfully.

"Is that so..." Lang Lei pondered. "It seems this method of resurrection isn't perfect."

The current ice dragon and fire dragon were fundamentally no longer the same creatures as the two Dragon Kings that had fallen here before. Naturally, this could not truly be called resurrection.

"Forget it. Do you have names?" Lang Lei shook his head, no longer dwelling on such meaningless matters as he looked at the two women. "What should I call you?"

The woman in blue and the woman in red exchanged glances, then requested together, "Please bestow names upon us, Young Master!"

"Huh?"

"In our hearts, you are no different from our father. You created us. Therefore, it is only natural that you name us." The woman in blue explained.

"Fine..." Lang Lei took a deep breath. "In that case, how about naming you after your essences?"

"Xuan Bing, Li Huo?"

Xuan Bing and Li Huo looked at each other, then thanked him together once more.

Though Xuan Bing looked colder and more aloof, from their conversation just now, Lang Lei somehow felt that Xuan Bing was clearly more lively than Li Huo.

For now, however, none of that was important.

"How strong are you?" Lang Lei asked the question that concerned him most.

"Young Master, Xuan Bing is currently at the level of a 990,000-year Soul Beast. After leaving Douluo Continent, my strength can rise to the level of an Emperor-level Honkai Beast."

"Young Master, Li Huo is the same as Sister Xuan Bing."

"Hmm?!" Lang Lei nodded in great satisfaction. It seemed the description had indeed been accurate. In a crisis, Little Griseo would no longer need to act. Xuan Bing and Li Huo should be enough to handle anything on Douluo Continent.

After all, a Soul Beast with a cultivation of 990,000 years possessed combat power greater than that of a Limit Douluo.

After all, even Huo Gua, with all his cheats ten thousand years later, had been unable to decisively suppress the 780,000-year-old Di Tian. Tang San in the original work had divine artifacts and Divine Power to aid him, yet he had nearly fallen to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. If not for the gods' schemes, it was hard to say who would have won.

Of course, there were now only a handful of people on Douluo Continent capable of threatening Lang Lei.

The strongest in the sky, Qian Daoliu; the strongest on land, Tang Chen; and the strongest in the sea, Bo Saixi.

Only these three Limit Douluo could threaten Lang Lei's safety if he neither used Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment nor called for help.

But if Lang Lei truly wanted to flee, they would not be able to stop him.

Of course, despite possessing a body that could rival a Super Douluo, Lang Lei was not getting carried away.

After all, he did not have the Soul Power Level of a Titled Douluo.

Soul skills were the foundation of Soul Masters.

"It's about time I found an opportunity to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect..." Lang Lei clenched his fist. He did not need to borrow anyone else's hand for his revenge, nor did Xuan Bing and Li Huo need to act. They only needed to serve as insurance against unexpected events.

He could not yet defeat Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, but everyone else...

They were nothing but rabble.

He would find that steward from back then and collect a little interest first.

However, a trip to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would inevitably involve slaughter, so it was certainly unsuitable to bring Little Griseo along. He still needed to find somewhere to settle Little Griseo first.

That would be easy enough.

Then there was the life-saving debt he owed Sword Douluo Chen Xin...

With such a debt hanging over him, Lang Lei was still somewhat constrained.

However, it would not be long before Lang Lei could repay both Sword Douluo Chen Xin's life-saving kindness and the little remaining debt of gratitude he owed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for raising him.

The young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo Chen Xin's beloved granddaughter—Ning Rongrong.

Lang Lei clearly remembered that, in the original work, the group from Shrek Academy would soon head to the Star Dou Great Forest.

And there, they would encounter an unprecedented crisis—a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, the Titan Giant Ape.

Indeed, Lang Lei knew that the people of Shrek Academy were not truly in danger, but no one else knew that!

Lang Lei had never claimed to possess a saintly heart. He knew that everything he did now was merely a disguise before Little Griseo, something performed for the world to see rather than driven by his own heart.

Everyone possessed compassion, true enough, but most of the time, it was merely the sympathy and emotional charity of the privileged toward the unfortunate.

Lang Lei could feel pity, but not for Shrek...

Besides, he was nearly level forty...
