Gu Yuena's Surprise

Di Tian then brought Kong Bo to visit Gu Yuena. Gu Yuena's Dragon Nest was incredibly vast. At this moment, a woman was sitting on a stone slab. Her long, silver hair cascaded down behind her, reaching her waist, and her violet eyes held a hint of bewilderment, exuding a mysterious aura. A white gown draped over her form; as Xu Tianran looked down, the gown was stretched taut by her snow-white airbags, which were roughly between an E and F cup in scale. As a football enthusiast, Kong Bo couldn't help but have the urge to reach out and grab them.

Kong Bo looked further down to see her slender legs wrapped in the gown. From beneath the hem, a pair of pristine, jade-like feet peeked out, swaying gently. Upon seeing this, Kong Bo felt an urge to taste such a delicacy. He no longer wanted to be Kong Deming's subordinate; he only wanted to be the younger brother of Uzumaki Naruto, Uzumaki Zuili.

At that moment, Kong Bo's mind was filled with only one thought: "Dragon Knights are great. One must be a Dragon Knight. I want to be a Dragon Knight, too."

"This is our Silver Dragon King, the co-ruler of our soul beast clan," Di Tian introduced to Kong Bo.

"Kong Bo pays his respects to the Silver Dragon King." Kong Bo bowed; at this moment, he still felt he should show the Silver Dragon King some respect. Wait until I become a god later, hehehe.

"Child, this is an inspection after your awakening," the Silver Dragon King said. Her eyes then flickered with surprise. "Come closer. I swear on the reputation of the Dragon God that I harbor no malice toward you."

"Very well," Kong Bo said, walking to the Silver Dragon King's side. A strange mass of energy appeared on her right hand, which then enveloped Xu Tianran before being retracted into her palm. Following this, a mysterious power began to radiate from Gu Yuena; she seemed to be casting some kind of spell.

"This is a divine art used by the Lord to deduce fate; it requires divine power," Di Tian explained to Kong Bo. "The Lord is a fragment of the Dragon God. Back then, after the Dragon God went mad, he was cleaved open by that old thief Asura. One half became the Silver Dragon King—that is, the Lord—and the other half became the Golden Dragon King, who was sealed in the God Realm. The Lord inherited the wisdom of the Dragon God, including the art of fate deduction."

"Oh, so that's how it is," Kong Bo said.

"Of course, I can only perform simple deductions for now," Gu Yuena said. "This is..." She then saw a scene of the future through her deduction: the seal of the God Realm being shattered by a single finger from a peerless powerhouse with mint-colored hair and a mask bearing a moon emblem. Silver-white, azure, and red moons shone brilliantly in the sky. Under the moonlight, the divine palaces burned, and the God Realm was destroyed.

"This is... his future?" Gu Yuena muttered to herself. "Why did the God Realm not discover this? Could it be... I see. Is it that place shielding the power of fate for him? Very well."

After ending the deduction, Gu Yuena raised her head. "Di Tian, grant this child the highest authority of our soul beast clan. We must help this child reach that realm."

"That realm?" Di Tian asked. "Lord, what did you see?"

"You will know in the future," Gu Yuena said, then looked at Kong Bo. "Child... your name is Kong Bo, is it not?"

"Yes," Kong Bo replied.

"May I see your Martial Soul?" Gu Yuena asked.

"Certainly." Kong Bo activated his Martial Soul, and three phantom moons of different colors circled his body.

"This is a Moon Martial Soul—a very powerful one, but why is it so strange?" Gu Yuena mused to herself. She pointed at the Red Moon. "It is clearly a fire-attribute moon, yet it contains power similar to that of the Goddess of Life, as well as the power of death."

Thinking of this, a sense of vigilance arose in Gu Yuena's heart. Could Kong Bo be one of that woman, the Goddess of Life's, people?

Gu Yuena immediately dismissed the thought. No, that's not right. Even I cannot fully analyze this red moon; the Goddess of Life could never have created it. Rather than a Martial Soul, this red moon is more like... a divine position capable of mobilizing the power of life? Yes, that's it. This is a divine position disguised as a Martial Soul. The Goddess of Life lacks such means.

The reason Gu Yuena had such a thought was that the Red Moon among the three moons of Teyvat held the authority over life and death. If Kong Bo were to develop the Red Moon of his Three Moons Martial Soul to its limit, he could naturally allow it to command the authority of life and death on the Douluo Continent, though that was not a problem for the current Kong Bo to consider.

Gu Yuena then looked at the silver-white moon. "The aura of the Ice Dragon King? How could it appear on a moon? A Moon Martial Soul capable of invoking the power of time... Life, Destruction, Asura—those fellows have not mastered the laws of time. They could not create such a Martial Soul. In that case, Kong Bo is even less likely to be someone from the God Realm."

The silver-white Constant Moon held the authority of time in the Teyvat continent, which was why Gu Yuena could sense the aura of the Time Dragon King in Kong Bo's Constant Moon phantom.

Finally, Gu Yuena looked at the azure moon phantom; this moon was the Frost Moon. "The aura of the Space Dragon King? And the aura of the Ice Dragon King? Forget it, I am already past the point of surprise. Moreover, these are not three Martial Souls; these three moons are a single Martial Soul. A single Martial Soul containing three hidden divine positions—this is truly my first time seeing such a thing."

"Very well, Kong Bo, you may retract your Martial Soul," Gu Yuena said. Her tone then turned helpless. "I cannot provide much help regarding your cultivation or the selection of soul beasts because your Martial Soul is very special. You should have some understanding of your own Martial Soul; the attributes of these three moons are quite rare on the Douluo Continent. Hmm... my suggestion is that you first seek soul rings from various life-attribute or fire-attribute soul beasts. After all, your red moon is of the fire and life attributes, and the early, low-level soul ring slots are quite compatible with those attributes."

At this point, Di Tian added, "If we had known you were carrying a treasure to avoid lightning, we wouldn't have needed that thing. We could have had it sacrifice itself for you, but it ran away on its own. When we chased after it, there were only human footprints left. Sigh!"

Kong Bo understood that the thing Di Tian was lamenting over was the escape of the Sky Dream Iceworm. It seemed the Sky Dream Iceworm had still been obtained by Huo Yuhao, though Kong Bo had already anticipated this.

"Senior Beast God, what is destined to be yours will come to you; what is not, do not force," Kong Bo said. "As for the choice of soul beasts, we can discuss it at length."
