Beast God Di Tian's Opening, but in the Dragon King Legend Timeline

Star Dou Great Forest.

Di Tian looked at the two young women before him, his mind somewhat dazed.

The memories in his mind battered the newly awakened tendrils of his consciousness.

He had transmigrated!

He had arrived in the Douluo Plane, in the Dragon King Legend Timeline.

He had transmigrated into Di Tian!

That's right! The continent's number-one ferocious beast, the nominal leader of the soul beast clan, Beast God Di Tian!

The two young women before him were Gu Yue, Synthesis Fragment 1 of the Silver Dragon King, and Na'er, Synthesis Fragment 2.

Because of the Silver Dragon King's "great undertaking" to conquer the human world, she had successfully gotten herself involved and become afflicted by the Emotional Curse.

In order not to delay her great undertaking, the Silver Dragon King had voluntarily split off Na'er, the personality formed from human emotions.

Furthermore, so that Gu Yue could merge with Na'er without any flaws in her heart, the two had made a wager...

Roughly speaking, Gu Yue would approach Tang Wulin of her own accord and wager whether he would fall in love with her, whether he would give up Na'er for her sake.

If Tang Wulin truly fell in love with her, it would prove that human emotions were false. Gu Yue would win, and Na'er would lose.

Gu Yue could then merge with Na'er without any flaws in her heart.

If Tang Wulin did not fall in love with her, Gu Yue would lose, and Na'er would win.

Na'er would become a permanent individual.

Just as the wager between the two was about to be carried out, Di Tian had been replaced without anyone noticing.

Di Tian wore a strange expression. He knew what happened later.

Gu Yue had never intended to honor the wager. Win or lose, she would merge with Na'er.

But so what?

Didn't Gu Yue still lose miserably, falling in the same place twice?

The first time, she lost Synthesis Fragment 2, Na'er. The second time, she even gave herself away completely.

The current Di Tian had not wanted to warn Gu Yue. It was not that he could not, but that he knew it would be useless even if he did.

After all, he possessed the vast memories of the original Di Tian. No one understood Di Tian better than he did.

She claimed to be the embodiment of the Dragon God's wisdom, yet she lacked even the slightest restraint expected of a king.

It would have been one thing if she did not know restraint, but she also possessed the stubborn arrogance of a king.

Put simply: I am king. How could I be wrong? I, the king, am always right.

Di Tian's debating argument was this: ten thousand years ago, the Silver Dragon King had personally said that after Huo Yuhao ascended to godhood, he could not take away the Power of Destiny belonging to the Douluo Plane.

Then where was the Auspicious Beast?! Where had his enormous Auspicious Beast gone?!

Over those ten thousand years, not one of the ferocious beasts, including Di Tian, had dared to speak ill of the Silver Dragon King. Nor had the Silver Dragon King ever mentioned it again, and the matter was simply left unresolved.

Therefore, Di Tian knew that Gu Yue was someone who would not listen to advice.

If she could listen to advice, she would not have fallen so desperately in love with Tang Wulin.

To be honest, despite the vast number of examples and precedents proving it, Di Tian still did not wish to give up. Perhaps it was the influence of a loyal minister's Dragon Heart, or perhaps some other reason.

He touched his Dragon Horns, feeling the surging power within his body.

He murmured, "For the sake of gaining this heaven-shaking cultivation for free, I'll make one final effort."

He decided to remonstrate!

With his status as Chief Right-Hand Man and a Two-Dynasty Elder, coupled with his silver tongue, perhaps he could make Gu Yue think twice.

"Wait!"

"My lord, I have something to say."

Although Di Tian's status was not especially high, he still had some standing.

The other ferocious beasts watching from the sidelines all stepped aside, clearing a path. Gu Yue and Na'er both turned to look at him.

"To fulfill the wager, you will inevitably have to enter the human world. Human emotions are far too impossible to resolve. The Auspicious Beast from ten thousand years ago and Na'er today are still bloody examples before us."

"Such is the lesson: later beasts mourn it, yet do not learn from it, only to make later beasts mourn for them in turn."

"My lord, please reconsider!"

"Ha~"

Gu Yue laughed, confident and clear as the ringing of silver bells, without a trace of impurity.

"Di Tian, do you think that if I enter human society again, I will fall into the mire of human emotions as I did before?"

"What a joke! I am the king of the soul beast clan! How could a king be trapped by love!"

Her words remained as confident as her laughter.

With Na'er as a warning, Gu Yue believed that she would never repeat the same mistake!

Yet she failed to notice the indescribable smile that appeared on Na'er's face beside her.

At this moment, Di Tian still attempted to save Gu Yue, who was recklessly testing the edge of humiliation.

"It is not that I doubt you, my lord. It is simply that we clearly possess a safer method."

"Your incarnation as a human is unlike an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rebuilding itself in human form. You need not follow the rule that one must enter the human world in order to cultivate."

"You have adopted a method similar to Phoenix Nirvana, completely healing the hidden wounds in your body. It will not take many years before you fully recover your peak strength."

"By then, with overwhelming power, it may be possible to forcibly erase Na'er's personality."

Di Tian's words were sound and reasonable, extremely prudent and convincing.

Sure enough, several of his ferocious beast colleagues voiced their agreement and nodded repeatedly.

However, this caused Gu Yue to frown deeply, her voice carrying the full majesty of a ruler.

"Completing the wager and merging with Na'er are merely one of my reasons for entering the human world."

"Our primary goal remains revenge against humanity."

"Humans have utterly destroyed our world. How could our conquest of the human world be as simple as merely destroying them?"

"I will turn every human into a walking corpse, into our slaves. I already have a plan, and it must be carried out as quickly as possible."

Gu Yue had never publicly explained the "plan" she spoke of, but Di Tian could guess that it was most likely a scheme to control humans through Mental Seeds.

From the perspective of soul beasts, having been slaughtered by humans for so many years, an impulsive retaliatory response was perfectly normal.

Before Di Tian could speak, Gu Yue continued in a scolding tone:

"Our world has been utterly destroyed. I bear responsibility."

"What about you? Do you bear no responsibility?"

"You, Beast God Di Tian, have failed in your duties!"

"If not for the Soul Spirits developed through your efforts with Huo Yuhao, how could our world have been ruined to such an extent?"

"And now, you still dare question me?"

Di Tian inwardly grumbled, Fine, fine. I've been thinking of you at every turn, and you've turned around and started picking at my faults.

He then said nothing more, retreating expressionlessly to indicate his support for all of his lord's decisions.

He had done his best.

The moment that thought arose, his body suddenly felt relieved of a burden. When he mobilized the power within him, it also became smoother and more natural.

Di Tian's obedience also made Gu Yue secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, in her current state, she truly was not suited to fighting Di Tian.

It was not that she could not fight him, but that the cost would be too great.

One careless mistake, and the recuperation of countless years might very well be wasted.

After deciding that she had tamed Di Tian, Gu Yue began preparing to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, infiltrate the Spirit Pagoda, and carry out her grand blueprint.

"Come with me. Together, we will conquer the human world."

The "you" Gu Yue referred to were naturally the Six Ferocious Beasts still remaining in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Among them was Di Tian, who suddenly spoke up.

"My lord."

"I won't be going."
