Electrolux Awakens! Chi Wang Becomes Guardian Spirit?

"Elder Xuan, rest assured, they won't do anything to me. Even if I encounter danger, I have ways to escape."

Cao Longyan did not want to give up this rare opportunity, which was crucial for him at this stage.

"Sigh, you brat really gives this old man a headache. Four years later and you're still the same... Sigh, fine, fine, go ahead. This old man will wait right here. If anything happens to you, I'll risk my life to turn this place upside down."

Xuan Zi placed his hand on Cao Longyan's head and ruffled his hair vigorously. Not satisfied even after that, he gave his back a heavy pat before finally pushing him toward Di Tian and Chi Wang.

"Xuan Zi, you aren't qualified to make such claims. If Mu En were here, I might take a second look, but you? Heh."

Di Tian looked coldly at the blustering Xuan Zi.

Cao Longyan knew that although Xuan Zi was unreliable, he wasn't like Gang Zi, who, with only level 29 strength, would say something as laughable as "I will destroy Spirit Hall at all costs" in front of Bibi Dong.

He was someone who would actually dare to do it!

"Elder Xuan, I'm off. I promise you won't need to turn this place upside down."

Cao Longyan arrived before Di Tian and Chi Wang. With a flash of light, he and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion were teleported by the two beasts to the lakeside in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xuan Zi watched silently as Cao Longyan disappeared, sighing and shaking his head.

This brat Longyan, I'm growing fonder of him by the day. Elder Mu truly has a fine great-grandson... It's a pity, if he weren't Elder Mu's great-grandson, I would have snatched him up to be my closed-door disciple!

Lakeside, Core Area of the Star Dou Great Forest.

A slender figure with silver hair was sitting by the lake, eyes closed in meditation.

At a single glance, Cao Longyan recognized her as the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena!

"Master, we have brought the person you requested."

Di Tian stepped forward, knelt on one knee before her back, bowed his head, and supported himself with one hand, speaking respectfully.

"Good, you have worked hard."

Gu Yuena opened her eyes, stood up slowly, and turned around to scan the five people before her. Finally, her gaze locked firmly onto Cao Longyan, radiating the majesty of the Dragon God.

However, Cao Longyan was not affected by this pressure. Instead, he was completely captivated by her silver hair and violet eyes, his mouth hanging open involuntarily.

He was stunned...

She is so beautiful... She truly deserves the title of the continent's number one beauty!

He took back what he had said to Bei Bei; he was starting to fall for her...

Gu Yuena noticed the way Cao Longyan was looking at her, but strangely, she felt not a hint of disgust!

How incredible!

Di Tian, who had also raised his head, caught the insolent look in Cao Longyan's eyes from the corner of his vision.

"Brat, how dare you! Who gave you permission to look at Master like that!"

Just as Di Tian was about to unleash his pressure upon Cao Longyan, something unexpected happened.

"Di Tian, you are the one who is overstepping!"

Gu Yuena glared at Di Tian, her eyes wide with fury. The sheer weight of her pressure left Di Tian gasping for air, completely shattering the aura he had been about to unleash.

???

Question marks filled the minds of everyone present. What was going on?

Gu Yuena realized something was wrong and hurriedly turned away.

What is wrong with me... Why do I feel an involuntary urge to be close to this human boy?

He is a human, after all?! Wait... could it be the Fire Dragon King's bloodline within him?

Gu Yuena took a deep breath to steady her emotions, turned back around, and cleared her throat.

"Human boy, what is your name?"

"My name is Cao Longyan."

Cao Longyan had also recovered. Surprisingly, he showed no fear of her innate majesty, his voice ringing out with strength and a hint of kingly dominance.

The way Di Tian and Chi Wang looked at Cao Longyan changed.

This brat is actually completely unaffected by the aura released by Master?!

"Cao Longyan, I have a proposal. Are you willing to accept it?"

"You haven't told me your name yet. I need to know your basic information; that is the most fundamental form of respect in any cooperation."

Di Tian and Chi Wang's eyes widened as they turned to look at Cao Longyan.

Is this brat seeking death? How dare he speak to Master like that!

To their surprise, Gu Yuena did not fly into a rage.

She simply said calmly...

"My name is Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena. Is that sufficient now?"

"No, you haven't told me the content of the cooperation. I don't even know what you want to do with me, so how can I decide whether to accept or not?"

Di Tian and Chi Wang were completely dumbfounded.

How is this brat Cao Longyan straying further and further down the path of self-destruction!

"Fine. I will assist you in dominating the continent and attaining godhood. In return, you will help me protect the living space of the soul beasts, and after you become a god, you will help me take revenge on the God Realm. How about that?"

Di Tian and Chi Wang were completely devastated, their inner bitterness finding no outlet.

The Lord they knew was not like this; she must have been bewitched by this brat, it had to be... forget it, no point in lying to themselves, the Lord was just being too hypocritical!

Cao Longyan did not overthink it, as these were already his goals, but they were not enough!

The corners of his mouth curled upward slightly.

"Agreed, but I intend to become a God King, not some ordinary god. I will carve out a God Realm of my own!"

It wasn't just Di Tian and Chi Wang who were dumbfounded now; Gu Yuena had joined their ranks as well, though she quickly recovered, her gaze revealing satisfaction as her own lips curved into a faint smile.

"Not bad. I truly did not misjudge you. Happy to be working with you!"

"Happy to be working with you!"

"What are your plans for your third soul ring?"

Gu Yuena cast a conflicted look toward Cao Longyan.

Just as Cao Longyan was pondering, Chi Wang spoke up first.

"How about I sacrifice myself to him?"

It didn't matter until he spoke, but his words were startling, instantly drawing the gaze of everyone present.

"I am also an Ultimate Fire user, but his Ultimate Fire far surpasses mine. I never had the confidence to survive the 400,000-year heavenly tribulation anyway, so I might as well take a gamble. Since the Lord has entrusted the future of the soul beasts to him, she trusts him, and naturally, I trust him too. Besides, the little bull-python and the little monkey from before..."

Di Tian interrupted him, his tone filled with frustration.

"Chi Wang, do you know what you are saying and what you are doing!"

Chi Wang remained calm and looked at Di Tian.

"Di Tian, I don't have your innate bloodline; I am destined never to reach your heights. I want to take this gamble!"

Seeing that his mind was made up, Di Tian stopped trying to persuade him and sighed with regret.

"Come on, kid, don't let my 300,000 years of cultivation go to waste!"

At that moment, the ball of light in Cao Longyan's spiritual sea suddenly stirred violently, and a black-and-white figure gradually solidified.

"Longyan, I can allow him to sacrifice only his physical body without sacrificing his soul. While becoming your soul ring, he will also become your guardian spirit."

Attracted by the voice in his mind, Cao Longyan entered his spiritual sea and saw the figure.

This is... Electrolux! The ball of light I obtained at the start was actually Electrolux, the one I intercepted from Huo Yuhao!

"I am the Scourge of the Undead, the Necromancer God, Electrolux. Longyan, trust me. Do as I say; bring his soul here, and I will handle the rest."

"Understood, Elder Eli."

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Cao Longyan withdrew his consciousness from his spiritual sea and relayed the idea to Chi Wang.

Chi Wang frowned.

"You mean I will be like those two giants you summoned?"

Cao Longyan nodded, the corner of his mouth twitching.

"Yes, though I have four now: Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan!"

As soon as Cao Longyan finished speaking, he reached out his right hand and gripped the air. The Ten Halls of Yama manifested, and four massive figures radiating hellfire appeared out of thin air.

"Greetings, My Lord!"

The thunderous shout echoed through the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Becoming my guardian spirit means you will grow stronger as my strength increases, and most importantly, you will retain all of your consciousness!"

Chi Wang's eyes lit up.

"Good!"

Chi Wang's physical body dissipated into a streak of red light that entered Cao Longyan's brow, and a 300,000-year Three-Headed Red Demon Mastiff arm bone fused into his left arm.

Two orange-red soul rings gradually solidified beneath his feet.

His soul power surged past level 40, heading straight for the peak of level 45!

"Chi Wang!"

Having become a guardian spirit, Chi Wang descended in human form, radiating an aura approaching that of a Soul Saint.
