"Nothing. I was wondering why Your Excellency the Silver Dragon King had kept me here."
"It's nothing. All the soul beasts of our Star Dou Lineage have placed their bets on you. Can't I meet you? Also, there's no need to call me the Silver Dragon King. I gave myself a human name: Gu Yuena."
After speaking, Gu Yuena stared at Xu Tianchen for a while longer without saying a word.
"Um, are you done looking? Can I leave now?"
Hearing Xu Tianchen's words, Gu Yuena showed a trace of displeasure. She turned around and waved her hand.
"Fine, you can go."
"Then I'll take my leave. Goodbye."
After saying that, Xu Tianchen had barely taken a few steps when Gu Yuena called out to him again.
"Wait."
A head-sized piece of emerald-green metal and a streak of silver light flew toward Xu Tianchen.
"Remember to protect yourself. Spirit Life Metal is no longer very useful to me, so I'm giving this piece to you. Also, I added a layer of spiritual protection to the Silver Dragon Scale I gave you. It can help you withstand spiritual attacks below the Divine Level."
Xu Tianchen caught the Spirit Life Metal and stored it inside the Silver Dragon Scale. The silver light then flew into the scale, which instantly became even brighter.
"Thank you. Don't worry, I'll do everything in my power to improve the situation of the soul beasts in the future."
With that, Xu Tianchen left the space, leaving only Gu Yuena behind, drawing circles on the ground.
When Di Tian, who had been waiting outside, saw Xu Tianchen emerge, he rushed straight up to him.
"How did it go? What was the result? Were there not enough treasures to restore spiritual power? I'll go look for more."
