Gu Yuena

Su He paused in his footsteps, raised his gaze, and smiled slightly, "My lady, is there something you need?"

Recently, Gu Yuena noticed that Bi Ji frequently left the Star Dou Great Forest with suspicious movements, so she secretly ordered the Beast God to investigate quietly.

Learning that Bi Ji was actually associating with humans of her own accord, building the Light God Temple in a small town, and spreading the faith of the Light God, she—filled with doubt and deeply curious about humans—specifically came in person today to find out what was going on.

Gu Yuena did not perceive any soul power fluctuations or traces of disguise techniques on Su He.

Yet she just felt very strange; initially, she had not discovered anything out of the ordinary.

Until she stopped Su He and he saw her face, she knew why she felt strange.

Normal men would inevitably show amazed expressions upon seeing her and Bi Ji, which was an aesthetic pulsation in biological instinct, unrelated to the level of cultivation.

Yet Su He did not.

When his gaze fell upon them, it was no different from sweeping past a blade of wild grass or an ordinary pebble by the roadside.

If Su He had known Gu Yuena's thoughts, he certainly would have given her the title of naive.

Had Gu Yuena known what a homosexual was, she probably would not have wondered why a man could remain unmoved upon seeing peerless beauties.

Of course, Su He was not a homosexual.

At this moment, Gu Yuena's silver eyes were cold and clear as she stared fixedly at Su He, her tone icy with intense vigilance and scrutiny, "Who are you? What is your purpose in approaching Bi Ji?"

Su He still maintained a warm smile, "There are too many eyes and ears here with many inconveniences; why not accompany me back to my residence for a brief sit-down and a detailed chat?"

Gu Yuena's gaze sank slightly, and after a brief moment of contemplation, she nodded slightly.

"Su He, long time no see!"

"Uncle Zhang, long time no see!"

"Isn't this Su He? I haven't seen you in so long, I thought you went to the big city."

"I've just been at home in seclusion cultivating this whole time."

"Is this young lady your wife? You really have good fortune, kid, having such a pretty wife."

"Aunt Li, this is my friend."

"Auntie knows, a friend? It'll happen sooner or later."

Su He and Gu Yuena: ...

Along the way, people greeted Su He from time to time.

This was because Su He used divine power to alter the memories of everyone in Apple Town. In everyone's memories, he was a young man who lived in seclusion year-round, but he was a good person who had once helped the town resolve a bandit invasion.

Soon, the two arrived at Su He's residence.

This was merely an ordinary, unpretentious, and simple courtyard in the small town.

Gu Yuena glanced around and quietly seated herself on a rattan chair, her entire body remaining heavily guarded without the slightest relaxation.

Su He calmly stepped forward, brewed a cup of clear tea, and gently pushed it toward her, "Try it?"

"My name is Su He."

"My name is Gu Yuena."

Gu Yuena lowered her gaze to look at the clear tea in the cup without moving.

"No need to be on guard," Su He said with a faint smile, speaking openly, "I harbor no hostility; I only interacted with Bi Ji because I found her quite interesting. I never expected that on this planet, someone would actually let go of racial prejudices and work together with a hostile race to spread the faith of the Light God and build the Light God Temple."

"This planet?" Gu Yuena instantly caught the key piece of information, her silver eyes brightening sharply as she immediately pressed on, "This planet? Are you an alien? Are you a Rucheran Alien, a Lebik Alien, a Mujina Alien?... Or a Kyrieloid?"

"Hey, why do you start by naming every single villainous alien on the sky curtain in order? In your eyes, do I look that much like a wicked person?"

"People's hearts are fickle, and uninvited backgrounds carry inherent suspicion," Gu Yuena said in an icy tone, pressing step by step, "What is your purpose in coming to Douluo Star? Douluo Star should have long since been sealed and concealed by the Divine Realm; how did you arrive here?"

"No, those townspeople earlier have known you for a long time. When exactly did you arrive on Douluo Star?"

Su He picked up the clear tea, took a light sip, and explained leisurely:

"Do you really think those little tricks of the Divine Realm can erase a planet's traces in the universe? Do you know what mathematics and physics are? Through calculating the orbits of surrounding planets, it's not difficult to figure out that there is a planet in this region."

"Moreover, because of the existence of the sky curtain, Douluo Star is now like a giant lightbulb, completely exposing its coordinates."

"As for my purpose..." His gaze was lazy, carrying a hint of relaxed serenity, "I don't have any grand ambitions; I just lived too tiredly and wanted to find a quiet planet to retire and age."

These words from Su He were thoughts straight from his heart.

After all, there were very few corporate slaves who didn't want to retire early.

"Retire?" Gu Yuena was slightly startled, her eyes filled with incomprehension.

"It's that kind of life where you don't have to do any work, don't have to think about anything, do what you like, and spend your days in relaxation," Su He explained faintly.

Gu Yuena understood instantly.

The next moment, she wanted to retire too.

Gu Yuena's personality was actually unsuited for reviving the Dragon Clan because she was not forceful enough and lacked firmness.

Gu Yuena's lips curved slightly upward as she spoke softly, "Your retirement life is probably about to end. Having watched the sky curtain, you should understand that Douluo Star is no longer peaceful."

"I naturally know," Su He said with a calm expression and unchanged smiles, "I'll just leave when the time comes."

Changing the subject, he looked at Gu Yuena and gently reminded her, "Right, Bi Ji has already returned to the Star Dou core to discuss the matter of an alliance. Are you not going back?"

Gu Yuena's gaze condensed slightly as she stood up and nodded, "Farewell."

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave," Su He said with a smile, raising a hand to gesture toward the clear tea on the table. "Tea I brewed myself, won't you have a sip? Rest assured, not only is it non-toxic and harmless, but it's also warming and nourishing."

Gu Yuena left without even turning her head.

Su He smiled.

Anyone who dared to directly drink a mysterious person's tea would have to have something wrong with their head.

Still, teasing an old maiden was quite fun.

Afterward, Su He lay back on the rocking chair in the courtyard, took out a gaming console with a strong sci-fi feel, and began to play games.

As for how the gaming console came to be, as a deity—

"What a deity thinks becomes reality" was the most basic ability.

Referencing the information in his memory, he simply used divine power to create one.

Gu Yuena, hiding in the shadows and observing, gradually became engrossed when she saw the game graphics inside the gaming console in Su He's hand.

In a mere three days' time.

The major factions on the Douluo Continent side all received the news.

Facing this planet-level disaster, the major factions set aside their past conflicts.

They began hurrying toward Spirit City.

Another three days passed, and the top-tier forces from all sides of the continent gathered fully in Spirit City.

Another four days passed.

Everyone had arrived at Spirit City.

Those coming from Sea God Island were Bo Saixi, the Sea Dragon Douluo, and the Seahorse Douluo.

The one coming from the deep sea domain was the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.

Those coming from the Far North were the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress.

Those coming from the Star Dou Great Forest were Di Tian, Xiong Jun, and Zi Ji.

Those coming from the Heaven Dou Empire were Marshal Golong and Xue Qinghe.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect brought Ning Fengzhi, Bone Douluo, and Sword Douluo.

The one coming from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was Yu Yuanzhen.

From the Star Luo Empire, Nether Grand Duke Zhu Hongfei came in person to represent the imperial family and the Zhu family.

The one coming from the Star Crown Sect was a level-93 Titled Douluo.

Only the Clear Sky Sect sent word: all Titled Douluo of the sect had headed to Slaughter City to search for Tang Chen.

Hearing this news, Tang Hao, who was already heavily injured and nursing a depressed mood, instantly turned ashen and ugly.

Seeing this, Qian Daoliu immediately dispatched powerhouses to rush to Slaughter City, hoping to intercept them halfway.

As for Tang Hao, because he needed to help Tang San pay for Xiao Wu, his pace of advance was slow.

The two heard midway that Tang Chen had arrived at Spirit City, and immediately changed their route to head there.

The moment the four members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect stepped into the assembly hall, a tyrannical, biting wave of soul power pressure carrying endless intent to kill suddenly roared over, locking onto all four of their bodies!

Chen Xin and Gu Rong's expressions changed drastically, and they instantly stepped forward, shielding Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong behind them while casting cold, piercing gazes toward the source of the pressure.

"Senior Tang Chen, what is the meaning of this?"

Chen Xin's voice was frigid.

Tang Chen's eyes were gloomy as he stared fixedly at the four of them, "You Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have an extraordinary amount of nerve! You actually dared to heavily injure my Clear Sky Sect junior, Tang Hao. Do you truly think my Clear Sky Sect has nobody left?"

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward slowly, his temperament gentle yet neither servile nor overbearing, "Senior Tang Chen speaks incorrectly. In battlefield combat, if one's skills are inferior, there are no grievances in death or injury. Could it be that only the Clear Sky Sect is allowed to wantonly harm others and act tyrannically, while we are not permitted to launch a defensive counterattack and fight to survive?"

"Hmph!" Tang Chen let out an arrogant, extremely tyrannical sneer, "On Douluo Continent, fists are the only hard truth! My Clear Sky Sect's strength surpasses yours; those who injured your people must simply endure it. Where would you get the qualification to resist?"

These words were unreasoning, overbearing, and arrogant. Beside him, Ning Rongrong immediately couldn't help but let out a sneer of derision, her tone carrying sarcasm, "Heh, what a tyrannical rule; your Clear Sky Sect really are birds of a feather. According to your logic, back when Spirit Hall fully encircled and suppressed the Clear Sky Sect and slaughtered your sect's disciples, why didn't your Clear Sky Sect obediently bare your necks for the slaughter and await death instead of abandoning your vassal sects and retreating into mountain seclusion just to barely survive? When it comes down to it, you're all just bullies of the weak and fearers of the strong."

"Yellow-haired brat, sharp-tongued and courting death!"

Intent to kill surged wildly in Tang Chen's eyes, and with an angry shout, he swept his large hand out. The heavy, pitch-black Clear Sky Hammer abruptly tore through the air, crashing directly toward Ning Rongrong!

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically!

Qian Daoliu's figure flashed, instantly blocking in front of Tang Chen and raising a hand to intercept the Clear Sky Hammer, his expression rather ugly, "Tang Chen! This is the Spirit Hall assembly hall, a vital place for discussing the continent's calamity together. You are not permitted to act willfully or resort to private brawls and violence!"
