"Who are you?"
"What do you want?"
Although the system's warning had come in time.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff did not retreat. Instead, he stared viciously at the forest beside him.
Under his paws lay a 470,000-year-old Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear.
He had only managed to take it down after suffering several wounds and bite marks.
He was just about to take huge bites out of its bear paws.
Then devour that 470,000-year Ferocious Beast Soul Ring.
Whoever it was—
Would not easily give up prey like this!
"Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff! I thought Soul Beasts like your kind had gone extinct long ago. Where did you come from?"
It was the silhouette of a woman.
She flickered in and out of view amid the patchy shadows of the bushes.
Her face could not be seen clearly, but her long silver hair was unmistakable.
Her figure was graceful and alluring, and she walked like an international runway model.
Yet at the same time, she carried a pressure so overwhelming it made breathing difficult.
Ignoring the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's threatening growl.
The woman slowly revealed his origins!
"Innately savage, capable of easily challenging opponents above your level, and you do not even regard the Dragon Race as worthy of notice!"
"If I remember correctly, your Golden-Haired Lion Mastiffs can fuse the bloodlines of all Soul Beasts for your own use, right?"
As she spoke.
The woman's gaze slowly shifted to Xiong Jun's body!
Those deep claw marks that exposed bone were clearly the work of the Heaven-Rending Claw.
The same technique had been used with even greater mastery by the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff!
"If I am not mistaken, you are the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena. Are you here to teach me about my family history?"
Facing the woman concealed in the woods.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff was wary, but not particularly frightened.
During his earlier battle with Zi JI, his innate domain, [Dominating the World], had already activated passively.
It could completely block the restraints of any superior bloodline.
And this Gu Yuena was not in her complete form.
The injuries she had suffered in the Divine Realm had not fully healed yet!
"Oh?"
"You know me? Is it through bloodline inheritance?"
"Your clan was too heaven-defying and too unruly back then. You were exterminated by several great clans joining forces!"
"If I recall correctly, not a single one should have been left alive!"
As soon as she finished speaking.
Gu Yuena slowly stepped out of the forest.
At that moment, she wore something resembling human outerwear.
Fair skin, exquisite beauty, long legs—her appearance was truly capable of toppling kingdoms and cities.
She looked exactly like how she had been described in the anime back then.
Unlike when Di Tian appeared.
There were no dragon horns visible atop her head, nor dragon wings behind her.
If not for the soul of a transmigrator.
At first glance, she was simply a beautiful human girl!
By now, after devouring prey all along the way.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff had grown to over fifty meters in total length.
Compared to him, Gu Yuena was far too tiny!
"What?"
"Lord Silver Dragon King, are you not planning to fight me in your true form?"
Seeing this.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff could not figure out what she was planning.
But his front paws never loosened from the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear!
Yet seeing the vicious beast eyeing her so greedily, Gu Yuena remained calm.
Instead, she extended a slender jade finger.
And pointed at the foolish bear on the ground, barely clinging to life.
"It was not easy for your bloodline to survive until now. Let him go, and I will spare your life as well!"
Gu Yuena was not merely boasting.
Although her injuries had yet to heal.
Gu Yuena could still casually slap to death a divine official above level one hundred.
As for this Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, he seemingly posed no threat to her either.
But what Gu Yuena did not expect was.
This Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff did not understand "gratitude" at all!
Instead, he sized Gu Yuena up and down with an ill-intentioned gaze.
It was not the lecherous look of a man seeing a beautiful woman, but the greed of a hunter spotting prey!
"Heh?"
"I put in every ounce of effort to catch this prey, and you think you can just tell me to let it go because you are some little woman?"
"Gu Yuena, are you telling me what to do?"
Hearing the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's unruly retort, Gu Yuena was visibly stunned.
It was as if she had never even considered that kind of response.
All along the way.
Every Soul Beast in the world would kneel upon seeing her.
They would respectfully call her "My Lord"!
But none of that worked on the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff.
This guy simply would not listen to reason!
"Gu Yuena, if you are done talking, get lost. Do not interrupt my meal, or I will not be polite to you!"
The next moment, before Gu Yuena could decide what to say next.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff let out another low growl.
It was thick with threat!
"You—you get lost!"
In her agitation, Gu Yuena cursed.
That hateful Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff actually did not take the Dragon King's words seriously!
Absolutely detestable!
But what surprised Gu Yuena even more was the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's next move.
This Ferocious Beast actually attacked first.
"Roar!"
"Little woman, you are courting death!"
After that furious roar.
A flash of golden light streaked before her eyes.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff swiftly released Xiong Jun and pounced at Gu Yuena with fangs and claws bared.
His enormous jaws opened wide in midair!
What was he doing?
Was he trying to destroy such beauty without mercy?
"Roar!"
The next instant, a clear dragon's roar rang out.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff felt his eardrums tremble as a vast expanse of white light filled his vision.
Gu Yuena did not transform in her human form.
Yet the phantom of a silver dragon appeared behind her.
With nothing more than a divine dragon's tail sweep.
She flung the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff over a hundred meters away.
Widening the distance between them!
"As expected of the Silver Dragon King. You are formidable!"
"I am becoming more and more interested in you!"
"I already tasted that little Hell Demon Dragon girl's dragon blood before. This time, I will try yours!"
It was entirely an instinctive reaction.
Without even thinking, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff launched another attack.
The reason the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff inspired fear.
Was partly because of his racial gift, the [Domination Domain], which could negate all bloodline suppression!
But even more importantly, it was because of this Ferocious Beast's personality.
He was like a honey badger in nature.
Easy to provoke, and ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.
And once he started, it was a fight to the death.
Though a human soul resided within his body.
Driven by instinct, he still could not help himself most of the time.
"Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, you have brought death upon yourself!"
After releasing her dragon soul.
Gu Yuena's entire expression changed.
In almost the blink of an eye.
The human girl in casual clothing became a female war goddess clad in silver armor and wielding the Silver Dragon Spear!
That heroic, valiant bearing.
Made her seem like Mulan from an illustrated tale.
"Heh, so this is the Silver Dragon King's true form? Interesting. Show me what you are really capable of!"
For some reason.
Whenever he faced a powerful enemy.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff felt his blood boil.
Just like a Super Saiyan from an anime.
The stronger the enemy, the stronger I become!
But just as the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff assumed a stance to fight to the death.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
The corner of his eye swiftly caught several powerful figures!
A Black Dragon, a Hell Demon Dragon, and an Emerald Swan were rapidly flying over.
On the ground in the distance, a patch of forest seemed to be moving. It was likely the Myriad Demon King.
And beside the Myriad Demon King was the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's old acquaintance, the Scarlet King.
What was this?
I have not even touched Gu Yuena, and these guys are already panicking!
Were they all rushing out to protect their master out of loyalty?
That enormous Black Dragon had not even arrived yet.
But he was already roaring furiously through the air!
"Bastard! How dare you disrespect Lord Silver Dragon King!"
"Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, you will definitely die today!"
