That War... We... Lost?!

Time seemed to stretch out infinitely.

Only the subtle, expectant energy fluctuations of the two little dragon spirits remained in the space, along with the faint hum of the flowing energy of the Lake of Life in the distance.

On her exquisitely beautiful face, all expressions gradually faded, eventually settling into a deep, unfathomable, and chilling calm.

Beneath that calm lies magma powerful enough to incinerate galaxies, and a chilling current capable of Ice Seal the universe.

She slowly and with great difficulty closed her eyes, her long silver eyelashes trembling slightly like butterfly wings.

When she opened her eyes again, all that remained in her purple eyes was a sorrow so heavy it made the space itself groan, and a resolute determination to face the cruel truth.

She took a deep breath, a movement that seemed to exhaust all her strength.

A cold voice rang out, no longer possessing its previous imposing authority, but carrying a deep-seated weariness and heaviness; each word pierced the souls of everyone present like Icicle Spear.

"I... am not the Dragon God."

The very first sentence was like a thunderclap!

The glimmer of hope in the eyes of the Fire Dragon King True Spirit instantly froze.

Gu Yuena's voice continued, eerily calm:

"I am... the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, the Dragon God... In the final battle, I was Beat Up by the gods of the Divine Realm, and my divine essence... was... split in two. I inherited the Dragon God's power to control the elements and... wisdom. The Golden Dragon King... inherited the Dragon God's power and... mad will, and was sealed in the Divine Realm."

"Boom!!!"

An invisible Psyshock erupted from the Fire Dragon King True Spirit like a tangible tsunami!

Lin Xia's body felt as if it had been struck by a heavy blow. He groaned, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. Frost and scorch marks instantly spread across the starlight ground beneath his feet! Ivysaur let out a painful screech, the icy blue and Red halo on its back flashing violently, on the verge of collapse!

"No... impossible!"

The Ice Dragon King's true spirit emitted a sharp, mournful cry, like a glacier bursting open.

"Dragon God... invincible! How could he... be split apart?!"

"The Golden Dragon King... sealed? That war... we... lost?!"

The Fire Dragon King's true spirit roared, and the flames around his body surged wildly, filled with destructive violence and disbelief.

"Those ant-like gods... how could that be?!"

Their consciousness was struck by an unprecedented shock! The core beliefs that supported their will—the invincibility of the Dragon God and the inevitable victory of the Dragon Clan—were ruthlessly shattered by cruel reality at this moment!

As Gu Yuena gazed at the two small dragon spirits engulfed in chaos and agony, the sorrow in her purple eyes deepened, yet she still used her somber voice to close the final coffin on that epic battle that had long since ended:

"Yes. That war..."

Her voice paused, as if uttering this word required all her strength, before finally, with endless desolation and hatred, she spoke clearly, word by word:

"... We... failed."

"Failed..."

These three words, like the final death knell, resounded loudly in the "ears" of the Fire Dragon King True Spirit!

"Hold head high--!!!"

"Roar--!!!"

Two dragon roars, filled with extreme pain, boundless rage, endless sorrow, and despair, suddenly shattered the tranquility of the Star Radiance Space!

It was no longer a transmission of souls, but a real, heart-wrenching cry that shook the very bottom of the Lake of Life!

The Ice Dragon King's true spirit erupted with a bone-chilling blue-white cold wave, instantly freezing a large area of starlight ground into solid ice. The ice layer spread, and even space itself seemed to be frozen with fine cracks!

In the extreme cold, there was endless sorrow and resentment.

The Fire Dragon King's true spirit transformed into a runaway, crimson-gold Lie Yan of destruction, madly burning everything around it, Burn and deforming the space with crackling sounds!

Within those flames lay a furious rage that consumed everything and a despairing annihilation.

The two small dragons rolled and howled in pain on Lin Xia's shoulders. Their bodies, which were made of energy and spirit, fluctuated violently, as if they might completely collapse at any moment due to this huge Psyshock!

They cannot accept this!

Unable to accept the fall and disintegration of the Dragon God!

The complete annihilation of the dragon race is unacceptable!

That war, which cost the dragon race everything and staked all their glory and future, ended in such a tragic and humiliating way!

Lin Xia was subjected to the frenzied impact of two extreme forces inside and outside her body. Her internal organs felt as if they were being torn apart, burned, frozen, and crushed, and her consciousness began to blur.

Bibi Dong was horrified and wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Di Tian with a look—this was a tragedy within the Dragon Clan, and external intervention would only make things worse.

Gu Yuena stood there quietly, her silver hair moving without wind, her purple eyes reflecting the painful struggle of the Ice and Fire True Spirits, and the raging cold and Lie Yan.

"Aaaaaah--!"

Lin Xia could no longer hold back and let out a heart-wrenching scream.

He felt like a fragile vessel, Sheer Force filled with violent energy powerful enough to incinerate stars and freeze time and space.

His left side was instantly covered by the Ice Dragon King's out-of-control cold wave. His skin, muscles, and bones groaned under the strain. The deep blue frost spread and thickened at a visible speed, freezing him into part of a human-shaped ice sculpture.

The biting cold penetrated to the bone marrow, as if even the soul would be frozen into powder.

The right side of the body was completely different; the skin was as Red as a branding iron, the veins bulged like a lava riverbed, Sisi white steam rose up, as if the flesh and blood were boiling and melting under high temperature!

The raging Lie Yan of the Fire Dragon King surged through his body, each heartbeat bringing excruciating, searing pain.

Extreme cold and world-burning Lie Yan collided and clashed violently along the midline of his body!

That feeling is a thousand times more painful than being torn apart by a thousand knives or having your heart devoured by ten thousand ants!

It felt as if two invisible, primordial beasts were tearing at his body, trying to rip his flesh and blood into two halves of ice and fire!

"Why... why can two broken souls still affect me like this?!"

Lin Xia screamed frantically on the verge of losing consciousness; the excruciating pain was almost destroying his sanity.

He understood that this was not merely an energy surge, but rather the Dragon King's essence, imprinted on the Life Core and Martial Soul, resonating directly and violently with his true spirit!

The pain of the true spirit is the pain of the brand, which is also his own pain! He became the most direct outlet for the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings's endless grief and anger!

"Dana dana--!!!"

Ivysaur let out a mournful cry, and the Four-Colored Light Wheel on its back spun at an unprecedentedly frantic speed. The golden-green light of life surged wildly toward Lin Xia, attempting to repair his collapsing body, while the ice-blue and Red light tried their best to soothe and guide the rampaging Dragon King aura within him.

However, faced with the completely out-of-control grief and rage of the two Dragon King True Spirit, its power was like a small stone thrown into a raging storm, instantly submerged.

The purplish-black Rakshasa Divine Mark flickered violently, releasing a powerful defensive and deathly aura that instinctively resisted the external destructive energy impact. However, this only exacerbated the chaotic conflict of energy within Lin Xia's body, making him even more miserable.
