As soon as the words fell, the owner's name appeared on the Sky Screen.
[Owner: Gu Yuena!]
Qian Renxue's exclamation came to an abrupt halt.
Bibi Dong's pupils suddenly constricted, and the expression on her beautiful face instantly froze.
"What?!"
She cried out in shock.
"Gu Yuena?! It's Gu Yuena again?!"
"!!!"
Bibi Dong's voice became somewhat shrill with excitement.
"The fourth-ranked Silver Dragon Spear is hers too! And now even the second-ranked Eternal Life Pendant is hers?!"
"One person monopolizes two exotic treasures?!"
Towering waves surged in Bibi Dong's heart. Just who was this woman called Gu Yuena?!
How many trump cards did she possess? Just how wealthy was she?!
Qian Renxue was equally stunned beyond measure.
"My Angel Holy Sword exhausted ten thousand years of the Angel Clan's accumulated foundation, yet it only ranks seventh."
Her voice carried a trace of frustration.
"This Gu Yuena... actually possesses so many treasures ranked far above mine all by herself!"
"..."
Hu Liena, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and the others on the city wall had long been left dizzy by the successive shocks.
Their mouths hung open, and aside from horror, their faces held nothing but profound envy.
"Th-this Gu Yuena, just what kind of person is she!"
"Terrifying! Her foundation is probably deeper than our Spirit Hall Empire and the two great empires combined!"
Bibi Dong's breathing became somewhat rapid. Her seductive phoenix eyes stared fixedly at the words "Eternal Life Pendant" on the Sky Screen, her gaze filled with undisguised greed and longing.
"I want it so badly..."
She said it subconsciously.
"I wonder how this Gu Yuena obtained such an exotic treasure!"
Qian Renxue gave a bitter smile and shook her head.
"Teacher, this is the treasure ranked second on the Douluo Exotic Treasures Ranking."
"Across the entire continent, aside from that elusive first place, no other treasure can compare with it."
"Who wouldn't want something like this?"
Just as the two were consumed by envy and jealousy, the golden light on the Sky Screen flowed once more, revealing a small annotation.
[Annotation: This pendant originally belonged to Gu Yuena's husband, Lu Ming. Later, to protect his beloved wife, he gifted it to his wife, Gu Yuena!]
Bibi Dong stared at that line, stunned for a moment before the envy in her eyes grew even stronger.
"This pendant... was actually a gift from her husband?"
She murmured, her tone carrying an indescribable bitterness.
"He gave away such a precious Super Divine Artifact just like that... This man truly loves his wife too much, doesn't he?"
"This Gu Yuena is so fortunate."
"..."
Bibi Dong thought of her own life, of Yu Xiaogang, of Qian Xunji, and an inexplicable desolation rose in her heart.
Had anyone ever treated her like that?
Hearing this, Qian Renxue nodded in deep agreement. She sighed softly and said wistfully:
"Yes, it truly is enviable."
"If my teacher... could treat me that way, even just once, it would be worth dying for."
Her words were filled with boundless longing and reverence for someone.
Yet the moment she finished speaking, her entire body suddenly stiffened as though struck by lightning!
Qian Renxue's beautiful golden eyes stared, stared fixedly at the annotation on the Sky Screen, her pupils shrinking to their limit!
She had noticed something wrong!
That name!
"This pendant originally belonged to Gu Yuena's husband... Lu Ming..."
She read the words one by one, her voice trembling violently with excitement.
"Lu Ming?!"
Qian Renxue suddenly screamed, her voice so shrill that it changed pitch!
Bibi Dong was startled by her abrupt reaction and looked at her in confusion.
"Xue'er, what's wrong? Why are you reacting so strongly?"
Looking at Qian Renxue's face filled with shock, she still did not understand. She even joked:
"Hehe, Xue'er, look, what a coincidence."
"I never expected Gu Yuena's husband to have the same name as your mysterious teacher."
However, Qian Renxue's next words instantly froze the smile on Bibi Dong's face.
"No... it isn't the same name!"
Qian Renxue abruptly turned her head and gripped Bibi Dong's arm tightly. Her knuckles had turned pale from the force.
She looked at Bibi Dong and said word by word, using all the strength in her body:
"He... is my teacher!"
Boom!
It was as though countless bolts of thunder had exploded simultaneously in Bibi Dong's mind!
She was completely dumbfounded, staring blankly at Qian Renxue, utterly unable to comprehend the meaning of those words.
"H-how is that possible?!"
Bibi Dong's voice was incomparably dry. She felt as if her heart were about to stop beating.
"Xue'er, did... did you see it wrong? Or could it simply be someone with the same name?"
"Your teacher is such an extraordinary figure. How could he possibly be that Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena's husband?"
This was too absurd!
It completely overturned everything she knew!
Qian Renxue shook her head forcefully. The shock on her face did not lessen in the slightest, but her eyes were incomparably resolute.
"It can't be wrong! It absolutely can't be wrong!"
She explained urgently:
"Teacher, do you remember? When the Angel Holy Sword made the ranking last time, the Golden Ranking displayed the past of our Qian Family ancestor, the First Generation Angel God Qian Yuhan!"
"When our ancestor encountered a life-and-death crisis, she was saved by my teacher! From that moment onward, she secretly fell in love with him and never married for the rest of her life!"
"In the Golden Ranking's image back then, there was also a woman following beside my teacher!
At the time, I didn't pay attention to her. But thinking about it now, if I'm not mistaken, that woman... that woman was Gu Yuena!"
"What?!"
Bibi Dong seemed to have been struck by lightning. Her delicate body trembled violently as she took half a step back.
Her mind was in complete chaos.
Gu Yuena's husband... was Lu Ming?
And this Lu Ming was Qian Renxue's mysterious, unfathomable teacher who had lived for tens of thousands of years?
The terrifying existence who had once saved the First Generation Angel God and had remained active throughout the river of history?!
Th-this...
Hu Liena, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and the others nearby had also heard the conversation. Their jaws nearly dropped to the ground in shock.
"Heavens! The Angel God's teacher is actually the Silver Dragon King's husband?!"
"Just how long has that man called Lu Ming lived? Twenty thousand years? Or even longer?!"
"He is both the teacher and husband of two supreme powerhouses. Wh-what kind of existence is he?!"
Bibi Dong felt her worldview being mercilessly shattered and rebuilt.
She forced herself to calm down, looked at Qian Renxue, and asked in a trembling tone that sought confirmation:
"So... Lu Ming is you, Qian Renxue's teacher, and he has lived for at least twenty thousand years. At the same time... he is also that Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena's husband?"
