Oath

Watching Huang Tian forced to submit to her overbearing might, his face a mask of suppressed rage and helplessness, Gu Yue'er secretly chuckled with immense delight.

Her eyes brightened, a smile tugged at the corners of her lips, and her heart felt like it was bursting with joy.

"I am no delicate Na'er; I am the dignified Silver Dragon King, the Supreme of the God Realm, and I possess plenty of strength and methods."

Everything in her previous memories was fine, save for one thing: that little bastard had actually made her call him "Master Daddy." The first time she heard it, she had nearly curled her toes in such cringing embarrassment that she could have dug out a three-bedroom apartment.

It seemed she hadn't just called him that once, either. From Na'er's sacrifice to the final War Against Heaven, thirty thousand years had passed.

Thirty thousand years! If she practiced that technique once a day and called him that ten times per session, that added up to over one hundred million times. Heaven knows how her past self had managed to endure it.

In her previous life, she had been heavily influenced by Na'er after the sacrifice, and with Na'er's soft, doughy personality, she had simply done whatever Huang Tian told her to do, never knowing how to resist.

In this life, she would be Gu Yue'er from start to finish—the upright, iron-willed Silver Dragon King. She absolutely could not accept such humiliating things.

Not even once.

Even if they were to do that, she would have to be on top, holding the initiative.

Isn't that the whole point of living a second life?

To make up for regrets and change one's destiny.

Who says that only the enemy's schemes succeeding, the extinction of one's race, the failure of one's career, the world falling into darkness, and one's own death are regrets? This, too, is a regret.

Hmph!

Feeling smug for a fleeting moment, Gu Yue'er flicked her fingers, and six black pebbles landed with a rhythmic thud, forming a simple hexagonal array.

"Alright, I won't let you call me 'Teacher' for nothing. Step inside, and I will awaken your Martial Soul myself."

In truth, she only needed a wisp of divine power to directly awaken the Martial Soul within Huang Tian's body.

However, having been beaten into hiding in an isolated space for thirty thousand years in her past life, only to be wiped out the moment she emerged at her peak, she was cautious.

Although the God Realm had no reason to strictly monitor the Douluo plane in this life, for the sake of safety, it was best not to display power exceeding that of a Title Douluo unless necessary, lest it invite trouble.

Before her little husband fully matured, nothing that could attract the attention of the God Realm must be exposed.

The future destiny of both humanity and the Soul Beasts rested on these small shoulders; one could never be too careful.

After Huang Tian followed her instructions, Gu Yue'er closed her eyes and opened them, her entire body erupting in a brilliant nine-colored light.

This was the Martial Soul she had set for herself: the Body.

She knew Huang Tian's Martial Soul was also the Body, making it more justifiable for her to teach him.

Following this, nine Soul Rings—two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red, a perfectly standard configuration—emerged at knee-level, rotating and pulsing slowly.

In an instant, Huang Tian's expression turned to one of utter shock, his eyes wide as saucers.

"One, two, three, four, five... nine, nine Soul Rings.

Wow, a Title Douluo? Teacher, are you actually a legendary Title Douluo?"

"You actually know what a Title Douluo is?"

"Uncle Wang Defa from the village chief's house is a Soul Master who works at the Notting City Martial Soul Hall. I heard it from him."

Huang Tian wasn't lying about this.

That Wang Defa loved to brag; he probably couldn't get away with it in the city, so whenever he returned to the village, he loved telling stories about the outside world to the children.

As long as you stared at him with wide, innocent eyes and exclaimed, "Uncle, you're so amazing," he would tell you anything you asked.

The only rule was never to ask about things he didn't know or couldn't reach, otherwise, his answers would be filled with wild, nonsensical fabrications.

Last time, he had claimed that two Title Douluos fought for three days and three nights, destroying five cities and leaving a battlefield over a million miles in diameter, which had left Huang Tian speechless for a long time.

"Teacher, what is your title, then?"

Gu Yue'er paused for a moment.

"Uh...

Let's call it the Protect Heaven Douluo. My purpose is to shelter the world."

After saying this, she secretly added in her heart:

Protect Heaven, Protect Heaven—it means to protect, care for, and love Huang Tian.

Little one, you must grow up quickly. When you do, I'll change my name to Heaven Protect Douluo, meaning to be protected and loved by Huang Tian.

Huang Tian understood the meaning behind Gu Yue'er's title in an instant.

He felt a strange mix of shame and being moved.

He had approached this with a calculating, utilitarian heart, yet she was completely sincere and held nothing back.

But soon, he told himself in secret:

The memories of my past life might be fabricated, but the feelings of this life can be real.

As long as she does not betray me, I will not betray her.

Everything I saw in my dreams, I will spare no effort to achieve: to love every wife, and to carve out a new path for all living beings.

I will turn everything fake into reality. With the system at my side, nothing is impossible.

"I am the sole destiny of this world; from this moment on, I must uphold this conviction."

Gu Yue'er's soul power surged into the six black stones, forming a semicircular golden light barrier.

Huang Tian only felt a gentle, warm aura invade his body, permeating his limbs and bones. The next instant, the two forces within him broke through a certain restriction, becoming something he could sense and control.

It was as if a protective film had been torn away.

He subconsciously extended his right hand, and a luxurious, small blade of grass with a deep blue base and gold and silver patterns traced upon it sprouted from his palm.

An aura of life, not overwhelming but endless and persistent, overflowed from it.

Following that, his entire skin, including his hair and eyebrows, turned completely golden, releasing a rich, brilliant radiance.

Only his eyes remained pure silver, not suppressed by the golden light in the slightest; instead, they possessed an even more intimidating aura, carrying a sense of majesty.

"Is this the feeling of a Martial Soul?"

"So powerful."

"So miraculous."

"The bottom-tier trash of the fantasy world doesn't seem so bad after all."

As Huang Tian sighed with emotion, Gu Yue'er felt equally thrilled in her heart.

"It has appeared: the Blue Silver Saint Emperor and the Huang Tian Sacred Body."

"Such a pure aura of destruction, and it even contains the power of ruin? Doesn't that mean..."

"Suppression and schemes from the God Realm? I will show you what it means to be schemed against."

"If a Main God won't do, then a God King; if a God King won't do, there are still the Supremes. You possess such potential; you were born to stand above all gods."

"In this life, no matter the cost, I will ensure you reach that ultimate peak—the Supreme."

Gu Yue'er said with a gentle gaze:

"Xiao Tian, remember: your Martial Soul is named the Blue Silver Saint Emperor, but if anyone asks, you must tell them it is Blue Silver Grass.

As for the other one, you can give it a flashy name yourself in the future, but its existence must never be known by anyone.

You are a clever child; you should be able to understand your teacher's painstaking efforts."

"I have remembered it, thank you, Sister Teacher."

"Sister Teacher?"

Huang Tian withdrew his consciousness from his Martial Soul, blinking his innocent, pitch-black, sparkling eyes.

"I heard others say that when addressing girls, one should use a younger term; that way, they feel they look very young and will be very happy."

"Good grief."

"He is only six years old. At six, he has already learned how to please girls? And the tone was so sincere and natural?"

"Against the heavens."

Gu Yue'er was completely stunned.
