Background / History
Gu Yuena is the Silver Dragon King and half of the Dragon God. Before her awakening, she remained concealed beneath Life Lake in the Star Dou Great Forest while recovering from severe injuries. Her original planned transformation into a human, amnesia, and eventual meeting with Tang Wulin are described as a scheme orchestrated by Tang Hao, the Plane Master. 122
When Chen Yu came to the Star Dou Great Forest and demanded that the Soul Beast clan submit or be exterminated, Gu Yuena awakened from beneath the dried Life Lake. Though she retained less than one-tenth of her cultivation and recognized Chen Yu as a true god with a self-created divine position, she assessed the situation calmly rather than immediately fighting. 123
Gu Yuena overruled Di Tian's objections and negotiated terms for the Soul Beast clan's survival. She accepted a contract requiring the clan's submission to humanity in exchange for a minor plane where Soul Beasts could rebuild, provided humans would cease indiscriminate slaughter of Soul Beasts. 124 125
She inspected the Fifth Minor Plane and found its ecological environment and life aura suitable, though its resources were limited and its territory was smaller than the historical Star Dou Great Forest. When she attempted to refine the plane and claim its core laws, she discovered that Chen Yu had retained ownership; the Soul Beast clan had only the right to reside there. 126 127
Believing the contract could be broken once she recovered, Gu Yuena chose patience and instructed the Soul Beasts to endure, gather strength, and migrate into the new plane. Unknown to her, Chen Yu later elevated the contract's power while concealing the change from the Soul Beast clan. 127 128
After the submission stripped Shrek Academy of its remaining role in human–Soul Beast relations, Gu Yuena sought direct exposure to human society by becoming Chen Yu's personal secretary. She rejected training under Pan Wen, considering him an “ordinary human,” and insisted on learning from Chen Yu himself. 130 131
Appearance
Gu Yuena's human form is marked by silver-white hair, silver eyes, and an ancient, noble presence. Her beauty is described as peerless, while her demeanor remains cool, restrained, and difficult to read. 123
- Long silver hair reaching her waist. 123
- Silver eyes carrying ancientness, wisdom, vigilance, and calm. 123
- Tall, graceful build and a cold, noble bearing. 123
- Wore a tailored, form-fitting dark secretary uniform after joining Chen Yu's office. 131
Personality
Gu Yuena is pragmatic, proud, and strongly protective of the Soul Beast race. Faced with Chen Yu's overwhelming strength, she chose negotiated survival over a futile battle, even while retaining the intention to free her people after recovering. 124 127
She expects absolute authority from her subjects. When Di Tian challenged her decision to submit, she silenced him and declared that her decisions were not his to dispute. 124
Although she initially looks down on humans, Gu Yuena recognizes that understanding them is necessary for the Soul Beasts' future. Her decision to serve as Chen Yu's secretary comes from her determination to study the strongest human in the plane directly. 130
Gu Yuena resents Chen Yu's belief that human lives outweigh Soul Beast lives, particularly when he requires Soul Beasts to assist against the Demon Plane invasion. At the same time, she is drawn to his decisiveness, conviction, and willingness to shoulder responsibility. 134
Abilities & Skills
Silver Dragon King's Elemental Authority
As the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena controls the seven elements: wind, fire, water, earth, light, darkness, and space. 123
- Her elemental authority is associated with her status as half of the Dragon God. 123
- Her six non-spatial elements are ineffective against Chen Yu's fist, which disperses elemental energy; space remains the stated exception. 123
- Her injuries have greatly reduced her available power, leaving less than one-tenth of her cultivation at the time of awakening. 123
Divine Soul
Gu Yuena can project her divine soul across a Space Rift to examine an unfamiliar plane and sense its vitality and environmental conditions. 126
- She evaluated the Fifth Minor Plane before entering it herself. 126
- She attempted to connect with and refine the plane's core laws. 126
- The attempt failed because Chen Yu's split soul was integrated with the plane's laws, causing the plane's power to repel her divine soul. 127
Leadership and Negotiation
Gu Yuena acts as the Soul Beast clan's representative in negotiations with Chen Yu. 124 125
- Accepted submission to preserve the Soul Beasts when direct resistance would have risked extermination. 124
- Secured a condition that humanity must stop indiscriminate Soul Beast slaughter. 125

- Di Tian — Her subordinate and the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King. He opposes submission to humanity, but ultimately yields to Gu Yuena's authority. 123 124
- Tang Hao — The Plane Master identified as the person who orchestrated her amnesia, departure from the Star Dou Great Forest, and appearance before Tang Wulin. 122
- Tang Wulin — The human Gu Yuena was arranged to meet as part of Tang Hao's plan. 121 122
- Pan Wen — Chen Yu's secretary-general, whom Gu Yuena dismisses as an ordinary human and refuses to follow during her secretarial training. 130

Story Role / Major Arcs

Personal Secretary to Chen Yu
Gu Yuena leaves the Soul Beast clan's new home to become Chen Yu's personal secretary, seeking firsthand knowledge of humanity and federal governance. 130 131
