Do You Want to Leave the Star Dou Great Forest?

"If an ordinary person were to refine it, they would be burst by the energy in their blood, since this blood also contains divine power, which is difficult for an ordinary person to withstand."

As Gu Yuena spoke, her tone suddenly shifted, and she said softly, "But you are different. You might be able to refine it safely and gain many benefits, but I cannot say for sure what those benefits will be."

Yu Mingxiao looked at Gu Yuena speechlessly.

What's the difference between saying something and not saying anything at all?

He chuckled and said, "Well, I'm quite happy to get your approval."

"Yu Mingxiao, you've obtained your Seventh Soul Ring. When do you plan to leave the Star Dou Great Forest?" Gu Yuena asked.

Yu Mingxiao raised an eyebrow and teased, "What, are you urging me to leave the Lake of Life quickly so as not to disturb the peace here?"

No, that's not what I meant.

Gu Yuena gently shook her head, her expression extremely serious, and said, word by word, "If you plan to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, please take me with you."

"Ah?"

Yu Mingxiao looked surprised. "You want to leave with me? Your injuries are healed? You don't need to continue recuperating?"

Di Tian was also startled by his lord's decision and hurriedly stepped forward, saying in a deep voice, "My lord, why are you suddenly leaving? Could it be... that your injuries have truly healed?"

Gu Yuena shook her head. "Not yet. My injuries won't heal anytime soon. I've been recuperating at the Lake of Life for so many years, but progress has been too slow. I think following Yu Mingxiao might offer an opportunity to heal my injuries quickly."

She wasn't surprised that Yu Mingxiao knew she was injured.

"This..." Di Tian looked at Gu Yuena, then at Yu Mingxiao, and was speechless for a moment.

Opportunities are too Void, especially the opportunity to heal half of the Dragon God's injuries.

He wanted to persuade his lord not to go to the human world, but he dared not disobey her decision.

"No need for further words, my mind is made up," Gu Yuena said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Di Tian bowed in response, but couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Since you've made up your mind, let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest together."

Yu Mingxiao nodded, vaguely sensing that her purpose was not so simple, but he didn't think too much about it.

Since she insists on coming along, then let her come.

He didn't care anyway.

It's impossible to say that he had no feelings for Gu Yuena whatsoever.

The human form she transformed into was not black-haired and black-eyed, but rather a stunningly beautiful woman with silver hair, purple eyes, snow-white skin, and an ethereal, jade-like appearance, far more captivating than the still-naive Na'er.

"Great! I want to go with my brother too!" Na'er exclaimed excitedly.

Gu Yuena said, "Shut up! Without my order, you are not allowed to leave the Lake of Life even a step."

"Why should I?!" Na'er retorted.

Gu Yuena's gaze darkened, her voice cold. "Because I am the original body, and you are an incarnation. I say you can't leave, and you can't leave."

"Hmph!" Na'er pouted, wanting to retort, but then she changed her mind and suddenly gave in, saying sullenly, "Alright, alright, then I'll stay at the Lake of Life."

Since the original body wants to go with her brother, then let her go. Perhaps the original body will gradually fall in love, just like she did. If that happens, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to go with him.

Gu Yuena was surprised that she would give in so easily, and a hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes, but she didn't think much of it.

Only when this rebellious clone realized it couldn't defy her will did it give up the idea of following her.

Her decision to leave the Star Dou Great Forest with Yu Mingxiao was not simply to seek a healing opportunity, but to see for herself what made this human who had defied the course of fate so extraordinary.

Of course, if going out could actually heal the injuries left by the Asura God, that would be even better.

I also need to figure out what it is about this boy that makes my clone so infatuated.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; if we can find the root of the problem, perhaps we can bring the clone back to its senses.

"Bi Ji, you will remain at the Lake of Life for now. Yu Mingxiao and I will be away for a period of time, which could take two or three years, or at least six months. We will return then, and you can travel with him."

Gu Yuena casually issued another order.

Bi Ji's performance truly disappointed her.

Two years have passed, and she still hasn't won over Yu Mingxiao, nor has she managed to make the young man devoted to her.

The two weren't even particularly close; Gu Yuena realized she had miscalculated...

But the order had already been given, and there was no reason to take it back, so she had no choice but to continue.

This time, however, she planned to stay by Yu Mingxiao's side herself, not wanting to see Bi Ji walking with him, as that would irritate her and interfere with her observation.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Bi Ji's eyes as she looked at Yu Mingxiao, wanting to try and persuade him, but facing Gu Yuena, she dared not disobey, and could only softly reply, "Yes, my lord."

Gu Yuena nodded in satisfaction, then turned her gaze to Yu Mingxiao: "Since we're about to part, would you like to sit at the Lake of Life?"

Yu Mingxiao had never properly visited the Lake of Life before, so he immediately replied, "Alright, then I'll trouble you."

A spatial rift formed, Gu Yuena was the first to step inside. She was about to leave and was also preparing to take some things with her.

"Mingxiao..." Bi Ji walked slowly over, her pretty face full of reluctance.

Yu Mingxiao looked at Bi Ji, and a strange feeling quietly arose in his heart.

For two years, they've been together day and night, and perhaps even he himself didn't realize that he'd grown accustomed to her presence.

Never mind, I'll just spend more time talking to her.

This is only a temporary separation, not a permanent one.

Yu Mingxiao led Bi Ji into the spatial rift.

Seeing this, Na'er felt very uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and stood aside sullenly...

The next moment, she quickly caught up with him, grabbed Yu Mingxiao's hand, and asked, "Brother, what have you been through these past two years? Can you tell me?"

"Na'er?" A smile appeared on Yu Mingxiao's face. "For the past two years, she has actually spent most of her time cultivating, until the Three Sects Grand Assembly..."

Unbeknownst to him, Yu Mingxiao had spent two days in the small space at the Lake of Life, tasting many of the unique fruits of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Na'er clung to him all day long, and he couldn't understand why this little girl liked to stick to him so much.

Yu Mingxiao found an excuse to get rid of Na'er, and after talking with Bi Ji for a while, he found Di Tian, took out a map, and asked, "Have you been to the sea area marked on this nautical chart?"

Di Tian carefully examined the nautical chart, and after a moment, said in a deep voice, "Beyond that sea area, there is another continent."

He had traveled all over the world, and there was almost no place on Douluo Planet that he didn't know.

Yu Mingxiao understood, and asked again, "Have you been to that continent? Are there any humans living there?"

Di Tian, "There are humans there, quite a few of them, and they built cities there a long time ago."

That must be the Sun Moon Continent... Yu Mingxiao had already made up his mind. He planned to travel overseas in the future. After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, he planned to travel around the continent first and not return to the sect for the time being.
