Her fair, slender legs were paired with silver high heels. A long dress outlined her perfect curves, while a waterfall of long silver hair cascaded down her back.
Silver eyes, silver hair, flawless beauty—she was the ruler of all soul beasts, the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena.
As she watched Tang Wulin's departing figure, emotions surged within her.
Brief fragments of memory flashed through Gu Yuena's mind.
"My name is Na'er."
"Na'er, from today onward, you are my little sister. I will always protect you."
"Na'er, why? Why did you leave me? Where are you?"
"I will definitely... definitely find you!"
The departure of that silver figure robbed his world of meaning, until that day...
"My name is Gu Yue."
"You're amazing, Gu Yue."
"So, you approached me because of my bloodline, right?"
"Yes."
"Gu Yue."
"What is it?"
"If you did it for my bloodline at the beginning, then what about now? Is it still for that reason now?"
"Yes."
When she left, she shut the door behind her—and also shut the door in his heart.
"Gu Yue, in this world, I have only ever loved one person. That person is you. So, do you love me?"
"Don't lie to me. From your eyes, from your bloodline, I can tell whether you are speaking the truth."
"Wulin, what should I do?" Gu Yuena's eyes were slightly damp as she forcibly stopped herself from recalling any more.
Because she knew that the more she remembered, the harder it would be for her to break free.
"Hehe, since when did you become so indecisive?" A cold, sinister voice rang out.
Upon hearing that voice, Gu Yuena's gaze instantly turned frigid. "Are you spying on me?"
Not far from Gu Yuena, an elderly man appeared. His eyes were filled with cold malice, and the aura around him carried an icy chill, yet it was also brimming with violent force.
"Hehe." The old man smiled. "Spying would be too much to say. I am merely concerned for you, afraid that you might encounter danger. After all, we are allies!"
He deliberately emphasized the word "allies."
Gu Yuena said coldly, "Then fine. Our cooperation ends here. Let us part on good terms."
The old man smiled without warmth. "Miss Gu Yuena, what do you mean by that?"
"I brought you such immense life energy, helping your Beast Platform complete its evolution and enabling your subordinates to make breakthroughs. Some of them even broke through to the godly level."
"Now that you have taken all the benefits, you want to burn the bridge behind you? Do you take the Feathered Serpent Clan for easy targets?"
As his words fell, the old man's aura abruptly surged. An immense pressure bore down on Gu Yuena.
At the same time, multicolored light appeared around Gu Yuena, like a rainbow piercing the heavens as it collided with the old man's aura.
This was a pure clash of auras!
Gu Yuena took several steps back through the air, her face slightly pale. The old man's upper body swayed, but he did not retreat.
Gu Yuena said, "She Wuyi, I have already said that you only need to name your conditions. So long as they do not violate my principles, I will certainly help you fulfill them."
"It is you who has kept concealing your purpose. You never mentioned the conditions you claimed I would agree to after helping me. What exactly did you come to the Douluo Continent for?"
"Hmph." She Wuyi snorted. "Why are you in such a hurry? When I need you, I will naturally tell you."
"However, let me advise you: since you have chosen to cooperate with me, do not think you can sever ties so quickly!"
"I do not mind telling you that I came here under the orders of the Feathered Serpent God of my clan."
Gu Yuena actually regretted cooperating with She Wuyi now, because he was far too difficult to deal with. However, there was no turning back once the arrow had left the bow. Having reached this point, she could only continue onward.
Gu Yuena took a deep breath. "I do not care what your purpose is in coming here, but I warn you: do not touch my bottom line, and do not harm anything I care about. Otherwise, even if I have to risk my life, I will make sure you stay here!"
With that, silver light flashed, and Gu Yuena vanished.
A trace of killing intent flashed through She Wuyi's eyes. If he were not wary of that multicolored super divine artifact, how could he have allowed this woman to act so arrogantly before him?
But why did he feel as though he had seen the multicolored super divine artifact on her somewhere before? And her aura also felt somewhat familiar...
Gu Yuena returned to the Spirit Pagoda and arrived at the Beast Platform. Da Ming and Er Ming were there at this moment.
"You're back," Da Ming said to Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena asked him, "Is everything ready?"
"Everything is prepared. We can begin at any time." Da Ming hesitated slightly. "It's just that, you..."
"It's fine." Gu Yuena exhaled. "Proceed according to the original plan. In three days, launch the beast tide!"
"Alright." Da Ming and Er Ming nodded, unable to hide the excitement in their eyes.
After preparing for so long, this day had finally arrived!
Gu Yuena looked toward Shrek Academy and cried out inwardly, I'm sorry. Forgive me!
In this life, I cannot be your wife.
