Silver-Eyed White Dragon Empress--Huang Tian

It was a rabbit.

To be precise, it was a Soft Bone Rabbit—the "buff" version—standing over a dozen meters tall, covered in terrifying, granite-like muscles, with arms thicker than water vats.

Even more absurdly, this muscle-bound Soft Bone Rabbit radiated an aura of pure, unadulterated male hormones!

What the hell... Qian Xunji took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to curse out loud.

Although he had long known that this world's yin and yang were inverted—to the point where even Xiao Qing could transform into a cold, domineering woman from a Sky Azure Bull Python—the sight of this muscular, male Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast still dealt him a massive visual and mental blow.

"Human powerhouse, this is a restricted area of the Star Dou Forest; it is not a place for you. Considering your cultivation is not easily come by, retreat at once!"

The buff Soft Bone Rabbit stepped forward, his rough, gravelly voice causing the surrounding leaves to rustle. He was Da Wu, one of the current public guardians of the Lake of Life.

Qian Xunji rubbed his temples, forcing himself to look away from those eye-searing muscle lines. He stood with his hands behind his back, his voice filled with unquestionable majesty:

"Enough nonsense. This Seat did not come here to deal with two gatekeepers. Go, call Di Tian out!"

Upon hearing the name Di Tian, Da Wu and the Titan Giant Ape beside him, Er Wu, were visibly stunned, a flicker of confusion crossing their eyes.

"What Di Tian? There is no such soul beast here!" Da Wu roared gruffly. "Considering your cultivation is not easily come by, retreat at once, or don't blame us brothers for being impolite!"

Qian Xunji's expression darkened.

No Di Tian? How could that be! As the true foundation of the Star Dou Forest, how could that Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, who had lived for over eight hundred thousand years, not be beneath the Lake of Life? These two beasts were clearly playing dumb to stall for time!

"If you refuse a toast, you shall drink a forfeit."

Qian Xunji sneered. He was in a hurry and had no time to waste on these two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

He slowly raised his right hand, and a magnificent longsword burning with a divine halo appeared in his palm without warning.

Super Divine Artifact—Oath of the Angel!

Hum—

The mere aura emitted by the appearance of the Super Divine Artifact caused the once-calm Lake of Life to boil instantly. The arrogance on the faces of Da Wu and the Titan Giant Ape froze, replaced by shock and terror. Under the pressure of that tangible divine might, their massive bodies trembled uncontrollably, their legs turning to jelly as they were nearly crushed to the ground!

This was not power a human should possess!

Just as Qian Xunji's eyes turned cold, preparing to swing his sword and teach these two ignorant beasts a bloody lesson, a sharp, cold, yet supremely majestic female voice suddenly erupted from the depths of the Lake of Life!

"Stop!"

With this cold command, the boiling lake water instantly calmed. Immediately after, the surface of the lake split silently from the center, and a blinding, pure white pillar of light shot into the sky.

Within that pillar, a woman with a cold, stunning appearance, dressed in a snow-white, flawless long dress, slowly walked out through the void.

She had brilliant silver-white hair, eyes as bright as gold, and on either side of her forehead grew a pair of exquisite silver-white dragon horns. The aura she radiated, while not yet at the god level, possessed a purity and ancient pressure that made Qian Xunji wonder if he could truly guarantee a win even with the Oath of the Angel.

Seeing the white-clad woman appear, Da Wu and the Titan Giant Ape felt as if they had been granted amnesty. They quickly retracted their auras and prostrated themselves respectfully, shouting in unison: "Lord Beast God!"

Qian Xunji's hand holding the Oath of the Angel faltered, and he was left completely dumbfounded.

He stared fixedly at the peerless woman in the air, the words this is absurd echoing wildly in his mind.

Di Tian... was also gender-swapped? And... she was a woman?

"You seek Di Tian?" The white-clad woman watched Qian Xunji coldly, her gaze lingering on the Super Divine Artifact in his hand for a moment, a hint of deep wariness flashing in her eyes. "There is no such person as Di Tian in this world. The Beast God of the Star Dou Forest is only I, Huang Tian!"

Qian Xunji: ...

He was truly at his wit's end. This world was not just a reversal of identities, but a torture of a transmigrator's sanity.

He let out a long sigh. Di Tian had become Huang Tian; a man had become a woman. However, looking at this Huang Tian before him, who also possessed extreme dragon might and unfathomable cultivation, Qian Xunji knew that although the name and gender had changed, she remained that same Beast God.

"Fine, Huang Tian it is." Qian Xunji flicked his wrist, retracting the Oath of the Angel, and the divine pressure dissipated instantly. "Tell these two big lugs to stand down. You and I, let's talk alone."

Huang Tian looked at him deeply.

As the King of Fierce Beasts, who had lived for over eight hundred thousand years, she had been sleeping in the space at the bottom of the Lake of Life. But the moment Qian Xunji drew the Super Divine Artifact, that pure divine aura had jolted her awake. Intuition told her that this human was extremely dangerous.

Yet, that name, Di Tian, seemed to touch upon some mysterious sense of destiny deep within her soul. Although she did not recognize the name at all, subconsciously, she felt that this human had come specifically for her.

"You two, stand down." Huang Tian waved her hand at Da Wu and Er Wu, then turned and transformed into a streak of white light, fleeing into the depths of the lake. "Follow me."

Qian Xunji did not hesitate and followed closely behind. The two arrived in a vast, immense space.

"Speak, human powerhouse." Huang Tian turned around, her face devoid of any expression. "You broke into my territory with a Super Divine Artifact; what exactly do you want?"

Qian Xunji did not answer immediately, instead looking her up and down with a strange expression. "Forgive me for asking, but is your true form... the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King?"

Huang Tian's brows furrowed slightly, as if she had heard something absurd. She corrected him coldly: "I am the Silver-Eyed White Dragon Empress! I control the ultimate power of light and space. A black dragon? What kind of inferior dark attribute is that?"

Qian Xunji: ...

Great, it was all reversed. The Black Dragon King had become the White Dragon Empress, and the ultimate darkness had become the ultimate light. Qian Xunji now even suspected that Huang Tian's ultimate move might be called [Divine Dragon Claw].

"Very well, Silver-Eyed White Dragon Empress." Qian Xunji put aside his cynical thoughts.

"What I am about to say may overturn your understanding, but you must believe it, for this concerns the future of your Soul Beast clan."

Huang Tian did not speak, merely watching him in silence.

"I am currently undergoing trials from the gods." Qian Xunji laid his cards on the table.

"Not long ago, the God Realm Committee entrusted me with a special mission. They want me to explore and plunder another world."
