Subduing the Sunset Six Beasts

"Xing Ling, in a sense, these six Beasts can be considered the children of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King. They're also skilled at managing herbs. Later, see if you can subdue them!"

"So just scare them first. If they still refuse to obey and remain blindly loyal to Tang San, we can kill them later!"

"Either way, it'll only take us the blink of an eye."

Just as Gu Xingling was preparing to draw her sword and attack the six Beasts, Gu Yuexi's voice transmission reached her mind.

"Fine, fine! I thought I'd finally get to show off this time. What a letdown!"

"You foolish girl! If you want opponents, then when we attack the Abyss and the Demon Plane in the future, you can lead the charge yourself. Don't mess around now!!!!"

"Got it, got it!"

After hearing her mother's words, Gu Xingling immediately put away her Golden Dragon Sword, then swiftly mobilized the Golden Dragon Bloodline within her body.

"Roar!!!"

As a Dragon Roar rang out, the phantom of a Golden Giant Dragon appeared behind the Golden-Haired Girl. Terrifying dragon might swept in all directions, instantly crushing the six Plant-Type Beasts until they could barely breathe.

Soon after, they involuntarily revealed their true forms and instinctively bowed their heads toward the girl before them, as though they had encountered their sovereign.

Within the Soul Beast Clan, bloodline was held in the highest regard. Soul Beasts with superior bloodlines could absolutely suppress those with inferior bloodlines. When the gap between their bloodline ranks was too great, they could even disregard differences in strength.

This was why the Emperor Auspicious Beast, despite possessing only ten thousand-plus years of cultivation, could rely on the Golden Dragon Bloodline in its body to contend against ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

And now, after being tempered by Plane Space and fusing with the essence of that God-Level Expert's remains, Gu Xingling's cultivation had reached 810,000 Years.

As for these Plant-Type Beasts, even Qiluo, the one with the highest cultivation, had only lived for over two hundred thousand years. The others had merely surpassed one hundred thousand years. Even combined, they were no match for Gu Xingling.

"Wh-Who are you? Why do you possess such terrifying bloodline suppression over us?" The six great Beasts looked at the three women before them, their faces filled with fear.

Their instincts told them that, compared to the girl before them, the two women standing to the side and watching were the truly powerful ones.

"I am the Soul Beast Sovereign, the Golden Dragon King!"

"I am the Soul Beast Sovereign, the Silver Dragon King!"

Gu Yuexi and Gu Yuena slowly stepped forward. The auras of the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King burst forth, only to be immediately withdrawn.

After all, these Plant-Type Beasts had weak bodies, and neither their bloodlines nor their strength were particularly formidable. They simply could not endure the pressure of the two women. If they were accidentally crushed to death, that would be troublesome.

Even so, the two God-level auras, combined with the absolute suppression of their bloodlines, frightened the six Beasts into collapsing limply to the ground. Their entire bodies trembled, and they could not move an inch. Even their consciousness began to blur.

Seeing this, Gu Yuena immediately spread out her palm. Silver Light blossomed, and a strand of Creation Power unique to the Silver Dragon King entered their bodies, quickly restoring the consciousness of the six Beasts.

"Gods! Soul Beast Sovereigns!"

"Th-Thank you, Your Excellencies. May we ask what brings you here?"

After regaining consciousness, the Beasts immediately knelt before Gu Yuexi and Gu Yuena, their bodies still trembling slightly.

From that trace of pressure that had leaked out just now, all six of them had already sensed how powerful these two were. Even Tang San of old, or the two Dragon Lords beneath the Ice Fire Liangyi Eye, had not been as powerful as them!

Looking at the women before them and the girl in the distance, a trace of longing rose in the hearts of the six Beasts. They wanted to follow them and escape this life of being treated like guard dogs!

But they absolutely could not say such words aloud.

Long ago, Tang San had placed restrictions in their minds, forcing them to guard the Ice Fire Liangyi Eye for generations. Only members of the Tang Sect carrying a token could take away the Heavenly Treasures here.

If the six Beasts dared harbor even the slightest thought of rebellion, those restrictions would immediately kill them!

"Get up. I know that although you have guarded this place for Tang San all these years, you have always been unwilling in your hearts. You never truly submitted to Tang San, did you?"

"Then what do you truly think of Tang San?"

As soon as she finished speaking, golden light flashed. The six Beasts felt a crisp crack echo in their minds, as though something had shattered.

"I know Tang San planted restrictions in your minds before, so it was inconvenient for you to voice your true thoughts!"

"But now, those restrictions have been broken. Speak freely!"

After hearing Gu Yuexi's words, the six Beasts first exchanged glances, looking skeptical. After being oppressed by Tang San for so many years, their way of thinking could not change overnight.

Then Qiluo, the oldest and most highly cultivated among them, seemed to make up her mind. Gathering her courage, she cautiously spoke.

"Tang San is a selfish, greedy, despicable bastard. If I could, I'd slaughter that son of a bitch and overturn his Tang Sect!"

"Ah, nothing happened! That's wonderful. Thank you, Your Excellencies!"

Seeing this, the Soul Beasts were overjoyed. They immediately began talking over one another, recounting their experiences over the years.

When Tang San became a god, as the inheritor of the Asura God, he possessed certain privileges that allowed him to remain in the lower realm for a period of time.

At that time, in order to completely control the Ice Fire Liangyi Eye, Tang San made an agreement with the Plant-Type Soul Beasts here.

Tang San would protect the Ice Fire Liangyi Eye, allowing the Soul Beasts here to grow without disturbance from the outside world.

In exchange, they had to guard the Ice Fire Liangyi Eye for Tang San and permit members of the Tang Sect carrying tokens to come here and gather Heavenly Treasures.

Moreover, if one day Tang San's direct descendant came here, these Beasts would have to unconditionally become his Spirit Rings or Soul Spirits.

After hearing Tang San's proposal, these Beasts had not wanted to agree at all.

Beasts were proud. Making them guard a medicinal garden like livestock, only for their ultimate fate to be becoming Spirit Rings or Soul Spirits, was more unbearable than killing them.

However, because the two Dragon Souls below still needed their care, they had no choice but to agree to Tang San's demands.

The Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King had once been God King Level experts. Even after death, the Divine Power emitted by their Dragon Souls and Dragon Bones had created this Sunset Forest, nurturing countless living beings and Soul Beasts here.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that these two Dragon Souls were the common ancestors of all life in Sunset Forest. The Soul Beasts here also called them Dragon Lords!

But Dragon Corpses and Dragon Souls were ultimately unconscious beings. Without care, their Divine Power would soon completely dissipate. When that happened, all of Sunset Forest would perish.

Therefore, as the six Plant-Type Soul Beasts with the highest cultivation here, they had voluntarily taken on this responsibility and continued caring for the two Dragon Souls. Even after Tang San forcibly coerced them, they had never abandoned their duty.

Otherwise, with the pride of these Beasts, they would likely have killed themselves long ago. How could they have allowed themselves to be raised here like livestock?

"You have worked hard."

Gu Yuexi took a deep breath and continued.

"We intend to establish a God Realm belonging to the Soul Beasts, to oppose the God Realm and oppose Tang San together. Are you willing to join us?"

"We... can join?"

"Of course. As long as you are Soul Beasts, you are subjects of Na'er and me. Naturally, you may join!"

"Your subordinates pay respects to My Lord!"
