Background / History
Gu Yuena is the Silver Dragon King and former co-lord of the Soul Beast Clan. Unlike ordinary soul beasts, she is a divine dragon. Di Tian had served as her personal guard before she entered the ice, and had followed her plan for vengeance against humans and gods for many years. 2 19
Ten thousand years earlier, Gu Yuena fused the Dragon God's heart—the transcendent divine weapon known as the Dragon God Core—with her own heart. She also retained the Dragon God's nine-colored bloodline. 12
Before her memory loss, she had joined both Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect. Di Tian considers her deeply partial to humanity and resents that she left the Silver Dragon Spear with Shrek while he remained responsible for the Soul Beast Clan. 13 19
Di Tian and the Soul Beast Clan later cease recognizing Gu Yuena as their sovereign. Di Tian regards her love for Tang Wulin and her willingness to oppose any renewed struggle against humanity as proof that she has defected from the Soul Beast cause. 31
She later emerged from ten-thousand-year profound ice at the Federation Academy of Science Tiandou Branch under the name Nana. Her presence attracted the Tianlong Seat, whose obsession with her was the reason he entered the Douluo Federation's territory and attacked Di Tian. 10 12
After the Federation delivered Nana to Elf Planet, Di Tian refused to permit her entry into the Soul Beast Forest. She was instead placed at the Elf Branch Academy, where a True God-level expert could monitor her. 29 30
Appearance
Gu Yuena is portrayed as an exceptionally beautiful silver-haired woman with a dreamlike, crystalline presence. 10 12
- Silver hair falling to her ankles like a waterfall. 10 12
- Violet eyes. 12
- Delicate, near-perfect facial features. 12
- Was discovered sealed within ten-thousand-year profound ice. 10
Personality
Following her awakening, Gu Yuena is curious, perceptive, and persistent about recovering her lost past. She immediately senses that Di Tian knows her and refuses to accept his denial. 12
Her interactions with Di Tian reveal a tendency to take his remarks literally or personally, such as interpreting his attention toward the Dragon God Core in her chest as physical attraction. She becomes visibly upset when he evades her questions and disappears by tricking her. 12 17
Gu Yuena is strong-willed and unwilling to accept rejection. After being sent to Elf Planet, she openly insists on remaining near Di Tian despite his refusal to receive her into the Soul Beast Forest. 30
Though amnesiac, she is reluctant to kill humans without necessity, seemingly recalling a vague promise to remain “a pure woman” and not kill people who should not be killed. 30
Her lost memories leave her confused by her emotional pain and by her feelings toward Di Tian. She attempts to understand romance through textbooks, seeks Di Tian's guidance, and later uses teaching, supervision, and cooking as distractions from her heartache. 56 59
Abilities & Skills
True God-Level Combat Power
Gu Yuena possessed true-god-level combat strength ten thousand years ago, equivalent to a second-rank deity. Her strength has not diminished over the intervening ten millennia. 12
- Di Tian judges that he cannot defeat her by force. 12
- Her origin is described as half a step from God King. 12
- The Federation considers her god-level value significant enough to retain her. 13
Dragon God Core
The Dragon God Core is the Dragon God's heart, fused directly with Gu Yuena's own heart. It is a transcendent divine weapon carrying the nine-colored Dragon God bloodline. 12
- Strongly attracts Di Tian due to its Dragon God bloodline. 12
- Grants her possession of a transcendent divine weapon that Di Tian considers dangerous in her hands. 12
- Is connected to spiritual-power seeds Gu Yuena planted in human soul masters; without the Core, their active control cannot be triggered. 19
- Di Tian later states that the Dragon God Egg has already drained part of Gu Yuena's Silver Dragon King origin, preventing her from returning to her former true half-step God King state. 45
Soul Beast Faith Power
The Soul Beast Clan accumulated faith power in Di Tian's name as the Beast God for hundreds of thousands of years, originally for Gu Yuena's use. 17
- The stored faith is stated to be enough to forge hundreds of first-rank god positions. 17
- If willing, she could combine this faith with the Dragon God's legacy in Dragon Valley and Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bloodline to establish a new divine realm. 17
Composite Existence
Gu Yuena is a flawed fusion of two former composite fragments, Gu Yue and Na'er. Their prolonged separation caused their personalities to diverge, leaving lasting cracks in their eventual reunion. 45
- Di Tian believes that her renewed memory loss, emotional instability, and imperfect fusion create a possibility that she may split into Gu Yue and Na'er again. 45
- He considers such a split an opportunity to destabilize the Dragon God Core fused with her heart. 45
Ancient Martial Arts Instruction
At Elf Branch Academy, Gu Yuena serves as a teacher of ancient martial arts techniques. She later becomes the supervising advisor of the Problem Children Squad. 40 57 59
Power Progression
| Period | Power / Development | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Ten thousand years before her awakening | Fused the transcendent Dragon God Core with her heart and possessed true-god-level power, with an origin described as half a step from God King. | 12 |
| Post-awakening at Tiandou Branch | Retained true-god-level combat power despite her memory loss, making Di Tian unable to seize the Dragon God Core by force. | 12 |
| After the Dragon God Egg's use | Part of her Silver Dragon King origin had been drained by the Dragon God Egg; Di Tian states that she can no longer return to her former true half-step God King state. | 45 |
| Current amnesiac condition | Her flawed fusion with Gu Yue and Na'er remains vulnerable to renewed separation, which could further diminish her effective strength. | 45 |
Relationships
- Di Tian — Former personal guard and longtime subordinate. Their relationship is burdened by Di Tian's resentment over her past choices, while amnesiac Gu Yuena senses that they were once very close. After arriving at Elf Branch Academy, she mistakenly attributes her emotional pain to Di Tian and repeatedly seeks his attention, while he secretly considers exploiting her flawed fusion and the Dragon God Core. 12 13 19 44 45
- Tang Wulin — Her former lover and the father of Lan Xuanyu. Gu Yuena's attachment to Tang Wulin is the central reason Di Tian believes she abandoned the Soul Beast Clan. Her amnesiac heartache is ultimately connected to Tang Wulin being emotionally swayed by Le Qingling's resemblance to Ouyang Zixin. 3 31 39 45
- Lan Xuanyu — Her son with Tang Wulin; the second-generation Dragon God egg was produced by them. 3
- Tianlong Seat — Tianlong became obsessed with Gu Yuena after seeing her sealed in ice and intended to make her his queen. His pursuit of her drew him into conflict with Di Tian and the Federation before Di Tian ultimately destroyed his divine consciousness. 10 12 18
- Federation Academy of Science Tiandou Branch — The institution where she awakened as “Nana” and where personnel initially sought to retain her before later transferring her to Elf Planet. 12 27 29
- Elf Branch Academy — Her residence following the Federation's transfer of Nana to Elf Planet. She serves there as an ancient martial arts teacher and later as advisor to the Problem Children Squad. 30 40 57 59
- Problem Children Squad — Gu Yuena supervises Qian Lei, Xing Xuan, Liu Feng, Yuanen Huihui, and Lan Mengqin as their advisor. 57 59
- Yuanen Huihui — Huihui innocently calls Gu Yuena “Auntie,” provoking Gu Yuena's intense displeasure. Gu Yuena's attempt to read Huihui's intentions reveals the girl's exceptionally pure, childlike heart. 44
- Ling Zichen — Ling Zichen recognizes Gu Yuena's identity and prefers that she remain amnesiac, believing this could give Tang Wulin an opportunity to move on from Gu Yuena. 46
- Shrek Academy and Tang Sect — Gu Yuena had joined both organizations ten thousand years earlier. 13
Story Role / Major Arcs
Awakening at Tiandou Branch
Gu Yuena awakens at the Tiandou Branch after being thawed from profound ice. When the injured Di Tian falls near the facility, she recognizes an unexplained familiarity in him and presses him to reveal her identity and their shared history. 12
The Dragon God Core Conflict
Di Tian realizes that Gu Yuena carries the Dragon God Core within her heart. Although he considers reclaiming it for the Soul Beast Clan, he does not act because her true-god strength and the fused weapon make a direct seizure impossible. 12 13
Pursuit of Di Tian
After Tianlong's defeat, Gu Yuena confronts Di Tian again and asks why he did not take her away. When he calls himself an “evildoer” and evades further discussion, she continues pursuing answers until he escapes by deceiving her. 17
Transfer to Elf Planet
The Federation sends Nana to Elf Planet in the hope that her apparent connection with Di Tian can be used to manage him. Di Tian rejects her presence in the Soul Beast Forest, forcing the Federation to place her at Elf Branch Academy instead. 27 29 30
The Heartache Misunderstanding
After Tang Wulin is emotionally affected by Le Qingling's resemblance to his former “white moonlight,” Gu Yuena experiences severe unexplained heartache. Believing Di Tian to be responsible, she confronts him at his dormitory and accuses him of causing her pain. 40 44 45
Di Tian recognizes that the misunderstanding may worsen the instability between Gu Yue and Na'er. Rather than clarify the truth, he chooses to maintain it in hopes that another split may weaken Gu Yuena and expose an opening to acquire the Dragon God Core. 45
Teaching at Elf Branch Academy
Over the years following her transfer, Gu Yuena teaches ancient martial arts at Elf Branch Academy. She later accepts Di Tian's proposal to supervise the Problem Children Squad, using her work and cooking as attempts to alleviate her recurring heartache. 40 57 59
Sea God's Fate
Before the Sea God's Fate matchmaking event, Gu Yuena resolves to see Di Tian one final time and determine whether she truly has romantic feelings for him. At the event, she is drawn to Di Tian's false body, embraces him, and asks him to call her “Mom.” 89 93
Trivia
- Gu Yuena is explicitly distinguished from soul beasts as a divine dragon. 2
- Researchers initially doubt that “Nana” is the Silver Dragon King because Di Tian speaks to her with open disrespect rather than his customary reverence. 12
- The Federation later considers sending Nana to Di Tian because of their apparent prior connection, despite Di Tian having rejected the suggestion to take her away; it subsequently delivers her to Elf Planet. 27 29
- Gu Yuena's accusation that Di Tian stared at her chest repeatedly causes widespread gossip, though Di Tian was actually reacting to the Dragon God Core in her heart. 12 30
- Yuanen Huihui's innocent use of “Auntie” as a form of address deeply offends Gu Yuena. 44
