"Na'er, sweetheart, you're awake?"
Looking at Gu Yuena, who had left Silver Dragon Palace and reappeared before him, Yao Xuan greeted her warmly.
"Mm, I'm awake! By the way, what are you two doing, Xiao Wu?"
Her beautiful eyes swept over Xiao Wu, who was lying across Yao Xuan's thighs. Gu Yuena asked curiously.
"Big Sister Na'er, Brother Yao Xuan was teaching me how to fight just now. I got a little tired, so I lay down for a while to rest and recover my strength."
Hearing Gu Yuena's question, Xiao Wu hurried to explain.
"Oh, I see. Combat ability really is important, so you should train hard!"
"By the way, Yao Xuan, if I have time in the future, I'll teach you how to fight too!"
After hearing Xiao Wu's reply, Gu Yuena nodded, then turned to Yao Xuan with a faint smile.
Although she couldn't beat Yao Xuan at their "game," and had lost repeatedly until her back and waist ached,
when it came to actual combat, she could easily make up for those losses!
"Sounds great, sweetheart. I'll be counting on you to teach me!"
Hearing Gu Yuena's offer, Yao Xuan didn't refuse. He simply nodded.
Although she hadn't yet recovered her peak strength, Gu Yuena had once been a God King, after all, and had incredibly rich combat experience.
With such a powerful expert as his sparring partner, he could fully develop the Golden Dragon King Bloodline's power.
After all, the Golden Dragon King Bloodline grew stronger the more one fought. It needed intense combat to trigger, awaken, and strengthen it.
And right now, it wouldn't be easy for him to find a suitable opponent.
With his sweetheart Na'er willing to spar with him, Yao Xuan couldn't have been happier.
Of course,
Yao Xuan could tell that Gu Yuena had made the offer because she wanted to make up for her losses in their "game" through actual combat.
But
if she thought she could use a fight to "get back at him," she was mistaken.
When they continued their "game" that night, he could easily "get back at her" tenfold.
"Good, then it's settled. I'll spar with you later!"
"But for now, I'll take you to meet my subordinates!"
After speaking, Gu Yuena took Yao Xuan by the hand, and the two waited outside the Lake of Life as she used her divine sense to summon the Five Great Ferocious Beasts.
"Greetings, my lord!"
Before long, Di Tian, Xiong Jun, Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and the Scarlet King arrived by the Lake of Life. They respectfully greeted Gu Yuena, then curiously sized up Yao Xuan, who stood beside her!
"Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Yao Xuan, the bearer of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline I was searching for. He is also my husband!"
"I called you here today to tell you that from now on, Yao Xuan's status among the Soul Beast Clan will be equal to mine. He is also a Master of Soul Beasts, and his orders are my orders!"
Looking at the Five Great Ferocious Beasts around her, Gu Yuena gave her instructions calmly.
"Di Tian pays his respects to my lord!"
Hearing Gu Yuena's words, Di Tian stepped forward first and bowed to Yao Xuan.
As the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian could naturally sense the bloodline within Yao Xuan.
The Bloodline Power in Yao Xuan's body truly was that of the Golden Dragon King, a bloodline superior to his own. It simply wasn't very potent yet.

However, since it was genuine Golden Dragon King Bloodline and Gu Yuena had personally appointed him, Di Tian naturally wouldn't question it.
Of course, in his heart, Di Tian still hadn't fully accepted Yao Xuan's position.
He was willing to serve Yao Xuan and follow his orders only because Gu Yuena had commanded it.
"Bi Ji (Zi Ji) pays her respects to my lord!"
With Di Tian leading the way, Bi Ji and Zi Ji also smiled gracefully as they approached Yao Xuan and bowed to him.
As they looked at Yao Xuan's face, both Bi Ji and Zi Ji were instantly captivated by his charm.
This Yao Xuan, with his Golden Dragon King Bloodline, was exactly their type, both in looks and bearing. They were very "interested" in seeing if something might happen between them.
After all, Yao Xuan wasn't just handsome; he was also the bearer of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline. If they could win his affection, they would surely benefit greatly!
Zi Ji in particular gazed at Yao Xuan with undisguised longing. The Hell Demon Dragon King Bloodline within her was also stirring restlessly.
Of course, when they saw Gu Yuena holding Yao Xuan's hand, their little schemes were immediately abandoned.
After all, Her Highness the Silver Dragon King had said that Yao Xuan was her husband.
No matter how bold they were, they wouldn't dare steal a man from Her Highness the Silver Dragon King!
"Bi Ji and Zi Ji, huh? Their status and beauty make them worthy of joining my harem. But before that, I'll have to convince Gu Yuena to join me in bed!"
Feeling the burning gazes of Bi Ji and Zi Ji, Yao Xuan guessed what they were thinking.
He couldn't help it. With the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, he was incredibly attractive to Soul Beasts.
And with his looks and bearing, it was hard not to attract Bi Ji and Zi Ji.
Looking at Zi Ji, with purple-black scales covering her body, a slender, curvaceous figure, long purple-black hair, and an exquisitely beautiful face,
and at Bi Ji, with emerald-green hair, a gentle face, a slim figure, and palace clothes that suited her warm, big-sister-next-door charm,
Yao Xuan found himself quite taken with them both.
As the saying went, why let good things go to waste? Bi Ji and Zi Ji were both adults, so he wouldn't choose between them. He'd take them both!
As for his sweetheart Na'er, perhaps he'd have to put more pressure on her during their "game," so she wouldn't mind inviting a few outsiders to join in.
After Bi Ji and Zi Ji, the Scarlet King also stepped forward and came to stand before Yao Xuan.
Sensing Yao Xuan's aura, the Scarlet King felt deeply puzzled.
Why did Yao Xuan's aura seem so familiar?
It was almost identical to that of the Emperor Auspicious Beast he had always guarded in silence—not ninety-nine percent alike, perhaps, but at least ninety-five percent.
Could Yao Xuan also be one of the Emperor Auspicious Beasts?
But wasn't there only ever one Emperor Auspicious Beast in the Soul Beast Clan at a time?
Then what kind of Soul Beast was Yao Xuan?
And if Yao Xuan really was an Emperor Auspicious Beast, and a male one at that, what would happen if he met the other female Auspicious Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest?
Would they, for example, have a whole litter of little Auspicious Beasts?
"Scarlet King pays his respects to my lord!"
Though his mind was full of questions, the Scarlet King didn't ask anything. He simply bowed to Yao Xuan before stepping back.
"Hmph!"
However, just then, a deeply discontented snort came from among the Five Great Ferocious Beasts.
Hearing it, Gu Yuena's lovely face instantly turned cold, and the air around them seemed to freeze!
