I Will Protect You Until the Very Last Moment, Until My Heart Stops Beating

Sea God Tang San of the Peerless era was utterly dumbfounded.

"No, wait! Is that Unfixed Storm? Are you kidding me?"

"A coincidence! It has to be a coincidence! He must have stumbled into it!"

Meanwhile, Sea God Poseidon of the Spirit Hall era was overjoyed.

"Good, good, good! He even knows the Golden Thirteen Halberds I created! This fellow has the makings of a Sea God!"

And as Luo Chen smoothly performed the entire set of Golden Thirteen Halberds...

The heart Sea God Tang San had held in suspense finally died.

The next day, Luo Chen and Gu Yue set off for Dragon Valley.

Gu Yue had disappeared over the past few days because she had gone to locate Dragon Valley.

"The Five Gods' Duel is almost here. Why do you seem so happy?" After taking these past few days to calm down, Gu Yue had finally thought everything through.

Luo Chen's words were not without reason. To free Soul Beasts from their current predicament, their only path was to create a Divine Realm of their own.

Her enemy had been the Divine Realm from the very beginning, not humanity.

Besides, she seemed to feel no resistance whatsoever to spending time with Luo Chen.

Because she really did seem to have fallen for this man before her who never acted seriously...

"Because I received a special gift, of course I'm happy. Once we enter Dragon Valley, I have a gift for you too."

Luo Chen spoke with an air of mystery.

Ever since receiving the Golden Trident yesterday, he had been brimming with excitement!

"I have a gift for you too," Gu Yue suddenly said.

"What gift? Can you tell me in advance?" Luo Chen asked curiously.

To his surprise, the icy Gu Yue suddenly blushed and said in a huff, "No!"

Luo Chen: "???"

The female leads watching this scene in the sky screen: Fine, fine, fine. Luo Chen, here you go again!

Luo Chen followed Gu Yue to the vicinity of the spatial anchor for the Dragon Valley Small World.

Several great Ferocious Beasts had already been waiting there for a long time. As Gu Yue arrived, they greeted her respectfully. "My lord."

Gu Yue nodded. "Make your preparations. Break through the Plane Barrier."

"Yes."

Although the Ferocious Beasts said little else, their gazes were full of wariness as they looked at Luo Chen.

Over the past ten thousand years, humans had deceived them countless times. How could they possibly trust humans again?

Di Tian, in particular, had his aura locked firmly onto Luo Chen.

Luo Chen likewise sensed Di Tian's aura locking onto him. Just as he was about to test the strength of this foremost Ferocious Beast...

A pale blue halo emerged from Luo Chen's body.

"Di Tian! Why are you staring at my daddy like that?" Snow Empress suddenly appeared and met Di Tian's gaze.

At those words, not only were the great Ferocious Beasts dumbfounded, but Gu Yue and the female leads watching the sky screen were dumbfounded too.

Qian Renxue: Luo Chen, how old are you? You already have a child?

Hu Liena: Luo Chen, let's have one too!

Ning Rongrong: Hmph! Luo Chen, you big liar! You already have a child! And she's already so grown up!

Vina: Why does Luo Chen's child look a little familiar?

In the sky screen, Di Tian's gaze gradually softened upon seeing an old acquaintance again.

"Snow Empress, long time no see. How did you...?"

"Bingbing and I became Daddy's Soul Spirits." No sooner had Snow Empress finished speaking than an emerald-green halo appeared. It was Ice Empress.

Watching this scene in the sky screen, the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord was utterly disdainful.

"A mighty Ferocious Beast, becoming a human's Soul Spirit! And calling a human Daddy! You've disgraced all us Ferocious Beasts!"

"Even if I, the Evil Emperor, die in battle or get killed, I will never become a human's Soul Spirit! I will break through to godhood through my own strength!"

Meanwhile, as Ice Empress and Snow Empress appeared, Bi Ji stepped forward to greet them. Unlike Di Tian, she was not cold and aloof, so Snow Empress and Ice Empress were more willing to speak with her.

At that moment, Di Tian's hands transformed into two enormous pitch-black dragon claws covered in black scales, and a fissure was torn through Dragon Valley's formerly impenetrable space.

As the two dragon claws pulled apart, the fissure grew wider and wider. The other Ferocious Beasts extended their hands at the same time, several beams of light rising from their bodies and shooting into Dragon Valley.

Ice Empress and Snow Empress were among them. This was also the main reason they had appeared.

Dragon Valley's Soul Power suppression seemed ineffective against these Ferocious Beasts. Only by joining forces with Di Tian did they manage to tear the opening into an enormous spatial rift.

At the same time, silver light flashed around Gu Yue, and a spatial spell landed within the rift.

"Luo Chen, let's go in. Time flows differently in Dragon Valley than outside. This Space-Time Array can seal the rift for three hours, which amounts to seven days inside Dragon Valley."

Gu Yue explained from beside him.

Yet Luo Chen merely nodded. "Don't worry. I know."

"All right."

Gu Yue turned to the great Ferocious Beasts. "Guard this place. We'll be back soon."

Then Gu Yue led Luo Chen into Dragon Valley.

After they passed through the spatial rift, the scenery before Gu Yue and Luo Chen changed abruptly.

There were no sun, moon, or stars. The sky over the entire small world was a pale grayish white.

Clusters of clouds in all manner of colors floated through the air-red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple-drifting lazily overhead.

They looked light and airy, like clouds in the mortal world, yet they did not disperse with the wind, instead wandering slowly above Dragon Valley.

Within each cloud, faint dragon-shaped phantoms could vaguely be seen rising and sinking, but they possessed no complete sentience.

"Are these Dragon Clouds?" Luo Chen asked.

"Yes," Gu Yue replied. The moment she stepped into Dragon Valley, her silver dragon king bloodline resonated with it.

Sensing her silver dragon king bloodline, the multicolored Dragon Clouds floating in midair flew toward Gu Yue.

But Gu Yue did not absorb them. With a gentle point of her finger, the Dragon Clouds flew toward Luo Chen as though guided.

Each Dragon Cloud turned white after passing through Luo Chen's body.

This signified that Luo Chen had absorbed all the spiritual power within it. His Devouring Ancestral Talisman was so domineering that he could absorb Dragon Clouds of any color.

"I need to retrieve the Dragon God Core. Will you wait here for me?" Gu Yue asked.

Luo Chen nodded, then took out the Bloodline Extraction Card and placed it in Gu Yue's hand.

At first, Gu Yue was puzzled. What kind of gift was a little card? But the moment she actually took it...

Her eyes gradually filled with tears. This was the complete golden dragon king bloodline! Tang Wulin's use of it alone showed just how domineering this golden dragon king bloodline was!

It could suppress any Soul Beast with a bloodline inferior to his, even the Mountain Dragon King Martial Soul at Monster Academy!

"Luo Chen..." Gu Yue did not know what to say.

"Remember what I said. The Myriad Beast Platform can't save Soul Beasts, but I can! I keep my word!" Luo Chen gently stroked Gu Yue's stray hair and softly wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Gu Yue, do you remember what I said when I first met you?" Luo Chen asked softly.

"I will protect you until the very last moment, until my heart stops beating."
