Dragon Valley Departure! The Silver Dragon King's Shame! Gu Yuena's Shyness!

The morning sunlight slanted in through the gaps in the curtains.

Gu Yue opened her eyes groggily.

She stared at the unfamiliar ceiling for three seconds, her mind feeling as if it were filled with a whole ocean of paste, so heavy she couldn't lift it.

His gaze slowly shifted, sweeping over the room's furnishings.

Hotel guest rooms.

That's right.

I think I drank quite a bit last night.

Then what?

Then my Remembrance went blank.

"Call..."

She let out a soft breath and rubbed her temples.

Is this why humans enjoy the feeling of a hangover?

She, the mighty Silver Dragon King, could have easily evaporated the alcohol with a single thought, but she chose not to.

She just wanted to know why humans both love and hate this kind of thing.

"Oh."

She curled the corners of her lips into a smile, turned over, and a hint of smug pride lingered in her eyes.

That woman is courting death, daring to challenge me to a drinking contest.

Hmph, now you know what suffering is, huh?

Although she was also drunk, she firmly believed that she had drunk half a glass more than Ye Xinglan.

That is victory.

While she was still savoring the results of last night's battle...

The sound of running water came from the direction of the restroom.

Then the door opened.

"You're awake?"

A familiar voice drifted over from that direction.

Gu Yue's smile froze on her face.

She slowly turned her head.

Bai Yuan stood at the bathroom door, his sleeves rolled up to his forearms, as if he had just washed his face.

A trace of moisture still clung to the ends of his hair.

Their eyes met.

Gu Yue's pupils dilated instantly.

"???"

The next second--

"Ah!!!!!"

The scream hit the wall and bounced back, making the curtains shake.

Gu Yue shrank to the corner of the bed, clutching the blanket to cover herself.

His eyes were filled with a complex mix of fear and shame.

"You—what are you doing here!"

Bai Yuan tilted his head slightly when she called him, a hint of helplessness in his expression.

"How old are you? Why are you making such a fuss?"

What are you doing here!

Gu Yue's voice hadn't faded yet.

Why did you come out of my room?!

Bai Yuan was silent for a moment, then looked at her expression and a subtle smile appeared on his lips.

"You're asking me?"

"What else!"

"It's all your fault!"

"Think back to it yourself."

Gu Yue was stunned, speechless.

She frowned, trying to salvage the images from those fragmented Remembrance.

Last night.

Ye Xinglan.

Drinking contest.

The two fell down at the same time.

Then.

Xingyue and Xingyue drank until they were both completely carried away.

Ye Xinglan couldn't hold on any longer and slammed her head on the table, completely surrendering.

Gu Yue slammed his hand on the table and stood up, a victorious smile on his lips.

The moment she stood up, she felt dizzy and instinctively grabbed Bai Yuan's arm.

She clung to the sleeve, her little hands groping all over Bai Yuan's body, mumbling incoherently:

"Make way... make way..."

Bai Yuan glanced down at her, sighed, and pulled her claws off his body.

"Go back to your room."

"Don't want."

"Are you going by yourself, or should I take you?"

"... You'll take me."

Back at the room door, Gu Yue absolutely refused to go in.

The reason was very assertive. "This is my territory, why should you call the shots!"

Bai Yuan was silent for three seconds, then picked her up and placed her on the bed.

Then she.

She hugged his leg.

Gu Yue clung tightly to Bai Yuan's leg.

Muttering to himself:

"Don't leave... I'll scream if you leave..."

Bai Yuan looked down at her.

Is this the Silver Dragon King?!

This Soul Beast is truly blessed!

The recollection ends abruptly here.

"..."

Gu Yue froze completely.

Heavens above!

I've never been this embarrassed before.

She is the mighty Silver Dragon King! Wielding the power of the elements!

Command thousands of Soul Beasts!

Gu Yuena is someone even the Divine Realm fear!

What did you do last night?

Pulling on a human's sleeve.

Touch that human.

Cling to that human's coattails.

They even sat on the ground, refusing to let us leave.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!"

Gu Yue suddenly raised her head, her face already as red as a shrimp.

From the base of his neck to the tips of his ears to his forehead, his entire face was flushed red.

She grabbed a pillow and slammed it against the foot of the bed:

Get out! All of you, get out!!!

Then she pulled the blanket over her head and curled up into a ball.

The sound came out muffledly from under the covers:

"I am the Silver Dragon King..."

"What am I doing...?"

"I... I... I... Waaah..."

"... Bai Yuan, you bastard."

The gritted teeth in his voice seemed to have softened somewhat.

The sunlight outside the window was perfect.

Meanwhile, the Silver Dragon King rolled over in his bed.

I've decided not to leave this house all day.

No matter who calls, it's no use.

Bai Yuan had just closed the door when his Soul Guidance Communicator vibrated.

He glanced at the caller ID and answered.

"Teacher."

Leng Yaozhu's voice came from the other end, with a hint of barely suppressed laughter at the end:

Congratulations!

Bai Yuan leaned against the table. "Thank you, teacher."

You don't know.

Leng Yaozhu's tone suddenly rose.

"After the news of your victory over there came back, the Phoenix Family completely humiliated the Qiangu Family at the meeting!"

"The expression on Qiangu Dongfeng back then, hahaha, I've never seen his old face so dark in my entire life!"

A burst of laughter came from the communicator.

Bai Yuan could even picture Leng Yaozhu in his mind.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly:

"As long as the teacher is happy."

"Happy! Of course I'm happy!"

"You'll get a good reward from your teacher when you get back."

"Just tell me what you want."

Bai Yuan didn't rush to reply, but simply listened quietly until she finished speaking.

"Oh, right."

Leng Yaozhu's voice became more serious.

"Remember, communicate with Mu Ye as much as possible if anything happens."

He will protect you.

"Although he seems unreliable most of the time, he actually has some ability when it comes to real work."

"Clear."

"Besides..."

Leng Yaozhu's speech slowed down a beat.

Be careful in everything you do.

"The Qiangu Family won't let this go easily. They can't do anything to you openly, but they'll definitely pull some dirty tricks behind your back."

"Be careful in everything you do while you're in the Star Luo Empire."

Bai Yuan lowered his eyes:

"I know."

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now."

Leng Yaozhu's tone softened again.

"When you come back, your teacher will treat you to a welcome-back dinner."

"Good."

The call ended, and the room fell silent again.

Bai Yuan put away the communicator and walked to the window.

Qiangu Family.

Star Luo Empire.

Shrek Academy

Be careful in everything you do.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to walk to the bedside.

There is still a lot to be done.

Then he closed his eyes and sank into the Sea of Consciousness.

"Xiao Bai."

A wisp of dark red flame silently spread from his palm, condensed and contracted in mid-air, and finally transformed into a semi-transparent figure.

Compared to when we first met, his aura has become much more solid.

His voice was hoarse from just waking up:

How is your recovery going?

"Almost there."

His voice was hoarse, as if he had just woken up.

"But I'll go with you, no problem."

Bai Yuan nodded.

Dragon Valley.

That was one of his real purposes for coming to the Star Luo Continent.

Time is of the essence.

He didn't believe that other forces hadn't noticed the subtle signs of trouble in Dragon Valley.

Those who need to be targeted have probably already been targeted.

If we drag this out any longer, we'll only become more and more passive.

Bai Yuan retrieved Xiao Bai and turned to walk towards the corner of the room.

A dark light flashed.

The Black Calamity Set appeared out of thin air.

The armor plates were as dark as night, with extremely fine gold patterns outlined along their edges.

The moment it was put back on the body, it adhered silently like another layer of skin.

Every inch of their aura was gathered, compressed, and concealed; even fluctuations in their Soul Power were suppressed to an imperceptible level.

It was as if half of a person had been quietly erased from the world.

It's still there, but no one can sense it anymore.

The moment the last piece of the visor snapped shut, Bai Yuan glanced at himself in the mirror.

Those golden eyes pierced through the cracks in the mask, calm yet cold.

The door opened.

The door closed.

The corridor was deserted.

Bai Yuan's figure disappeared around the corner, passed through the elevator lobby, and blended into the crowd in the lobby.

No one noticed him passing by.

Like a drop of ink falling into the ocean, silently and without a trace.
