Gu Yuena looked at Su He, a faint smile lifting the corners of her lips.
"Well, Alien, care to lend a hand?"
Su He laughed.
"You really have changed. You're even willing to use an Alien whose origins you know nothing about. Aren't you afraid I'll join forces with the enemy and destroy you?"
Gu Yuena smiled too. "Don't you want to retire here? If the enemy destroys this planet, that would be a problem for you too, wouldn't it? And you hate trouble."
Su He paused, then rubbed his brow and laughed helplessly. "All right, Gu Yuena. You've learned how to get to people."
"Aren't you afraid I'm a demon god?"
"Why would I be? The world is facing destruction right now. Even if you plan to destroy it, that's a problem for later."
"I won't join the fight. I have my reasons." His tone turned casual. "But I can still give you a hand."
As he spoke, Su He raised his right hand. A soft golden orb appeared above it, then shot into Gu Yuena's body.
Warmth spread through every part of Gu Yuena as what Su He had sent into her moved through her body.
"Ah...!"
Comfort washed over her wherever it passed, drawing an involuntary moan from her lips.
A moment later, the intense sensation gradually faded.
Gu Yuena discovered that her old injury had healed completely.
She looked up at Su He, her eyes full of surprise.
"Don't tell me you're an apostle of the Light God."
Gu Yuena pressed him no further. "Forget it. I'll deal with the enemy first."
"I choose you! Go, Nana!"
Gu Yuena was just about to spread her wings and take flight when Su He spoke. She faltered, nearly stumbling out of the air.
She turned and shot him a fierce glare before racing toward Suranos.
In the blink of an eye, silver light blazed around her. She transformed into a hundred-meter-long silver dragon, her scales shimmering as her wings unfurled amid a tremendous surge of elemental energy.
Beautiful.
Just don't die, all right?
A moment later, the Sky Curtain showed a hundred-meter-long silver dragon confronting Suranos.
People across Douluo Star wondered what mighty warrior this silver dragon was, to dare face Suranos head-on.
Text appeared on the Sky Curtain: [Silver Dragon King. One half of the split Dragon God. Half-Step God King Realm. Wielder of the Elemental Law and Spatial Law. Ruler of Douluo Continent's Soul Beasts. Has remained hidden on Douluo Star.]
Everyone on Douluo Continent was stunned. Such a formidable being had been hiding on their planet all along?
Near Slaughter City!
Qian Daoliu and the others turned their attention to Di Tian and the other two beasts, whose expressions had grown grave.
At Shrek Academy!
Seeing Gu Yuena, Oscar found himself asking Grandmaster yet another question. "Grandmaster, who do you think is stronger, the Silver Dragon King or Suranos?"
Oscar did not get the answer he wanted. He got only Grandmaster's dark glare.
At the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest,
Gu Yuena's dragon eyes were cold. Elemental power surged around her as wind, fire, water, and earth intertwined, forming a beam of energy that blasted toward Suranos.
Suranos charged straight into the attack without dodging, and the two instantly locked in combat. As a Half-Step God King, the Silver Dragon King was slightly stronger than Poseidon.
But against Suranos, she could only rely on the Elemental Law and Spatial Law to keep moving and trade blows.
The silver dragon's tail swept toward Suranos, carrying immense elemental power. With a beat of his wings, the monster slipped aside at incredible speed and raked his blood-soaked claws toward her body.
Gu Yuena immediately used Fixed-Point Teleportation. A haze of silver-purple spatial light lingered where she had stood, while she reappeared a thousand meters away.
Suranos reacted quickly. In the blink of an eye, he was before Gu Yuena and attacked again. She raised an Elemental Shield, but his claws tore through it. A gash deep enough to expose bone appeared on her dragon body. Silver-white scales fell away, and blood rained onto the ground.
Gu Yuena used Fixed-Point Teleportation again, appearing ten thousand meters away. She fired a blast of Dragon Breath at Suranos, but he beat his wings and dodged to the side.
The two beasts soon exchanged dozens of blows. Gu Yuena could not match Suranos in physical strength or speed, but with the Spatial Law's help, she could avoid defeat for the moment.
Anyone could see, however, that her defeat was only a matter of time.
"Darkness Descends!"
Suranos's roar shook heaven and earth. A black barrier more than a hundred kilometers across spread out from him, engulfing the entire battlefield. Light dimmed within it, while dark, evil power fiercely suppressed the surrounding elemental and spatial forces.
The next instant, Suranos opened his mouth. A crimson beam packed with concentrated dark energy tore through the air toward Gu Yuena's dragon body.
Gu Yuena's pupils contracted. By instinct, she tried to use Fixed-Point Teleportation to evade the fatal strike.
But under the Darkness Barrier's suppression, the Spatial Law that had never failed her stopped working entirely. A silver-purple spatial haze had barely appeared before it dispersed.
At that critical moment, Gu Yuena forced her power together and raised a thick Spatial Barrier before her.
The crimson beam slammed into the barrier with a shriek of colliding energy. It held for just 0.1 seconds before shattering piece by piece.
Boom—!
The beam struck Gu Yuena squarely. Her enormous silver-white body flew several kilometers like a kite with its string cut, then crashed into a small mountain.
The solid mountain crumbled like tofu. Gu Yuena's entire dragon body vanished beneath rubble and dust, her fate unknown.
"My liege!"
Di Tian's eyes blazed with fury as Soul Power surged around him.
Triumph flashed in Suranos's crimson eyes. He beat his wings and flew straight toward the mountain burying Gu Yuena, intent on killing the ruler of the Soul Beasts for good.
Countless viewers felt their hearts seize at the sight.
Suddenly, the Sky Curtain showed Bi Ji standing at the front of the Light God Temple in Apple Town, where she had been praying all along. White light began to shine from her body.
Everyone in the temple stared wide-eyed.
The next moment, Bi Ji became a streak of light and flew out of the temple.
The light crossed mountains and rivers, then plunged straight into the dormant Tiga statue in the underground cavern.
The statue, silent for countless ages, erupted in dazzling white light. Tiga appeared once more.
Inside Tiga's Mental Space, Bi Ji curiously raised her left hand, then her right. Outside, Tiga's body mirrored both movements.
Bi Ji then took the starting pose for Tiga Sky Type's flight. She bent her knees slightly to gather strength, and the next instant, Tiga's body burst through the mountain rock and shot into the sky.
Suranos was preparing to attack and finish off Gu Yuena, whose life force had grown faint, when he caught sight of Tiga's sudden appearance on the Sky Curtain. Deep hatred flashed in his eyes.
Then he turned and flew away!
Watching the Sky Curtain, the Ice Empress could not help swearing.
"Fuck, that bastard's shameless! He just ran away."
The Snow Empress gazed at the Sky Curtain with ice-cold eyes. "He knows he can't beat Tiga. He's buying time."
Ning Fengzhi's expression changed.
"Oh no. He must be buying time to awaken Gatanthor."
Di Tian's brows drew together. "Damned monster."
Di Tian had been somewhat displeased to learn that Bi Ji had been associating with humans.
But when he saw that she had become Tiga and saved Gu Yuena, his displeasure vanished.
With Tiga's immense power on their side, the day they fought their way from the Star Dou Great Forest into the Divine Realm and made the Asura God kneel and sing his surrender could not be far off.
Unfortunately, Di Tian did not yet know that Bi Ji's time as Tiga was only a temporary trial.
