As Gu Yue finished speaking, silence fell over the room. Gentle lamplight fell across Na'er's delicate face, yet revealed none of her usual liveliness.
Na'er froze slightly, her clear eyes filled with astonishment and confusion, utterly stunned where she stood.
The reason she had followed Gu Yue to her room with such solemn seriousness was that Gu Yue had specifically warned her beforehand that what they were about to discuss concerned the safety of the entire Douluo Continent and was even closely tied to Xiao Chen's life. There was no room for carelessness.
Yet she had never imagined that all Gu Yue would talk about was the group of sea soul beasts they had encountered at sea tonight.
What danger could there possibly be? An underwater ruin and a bunch of sea soul beasts that couldn't even speak. Even she, one half of the Silver Dragon King, couldn't communicate with them. Their intelligence probably hadn't even awakened.
A race like that, no matter how high its cultivation or how ferocious its combat strength, was nothing more than a pack of beasts without awakened intelligence, running rampant through the seas on the strength of special talents. They couldn't stir up any great waves.
That was it? And this somehow concerned the plane's safety?
Na'er grumbled inwardly. Gu Yue was making far too much of a molehill.
Even with ten thousand or a hundred thousand years of cultivation, they hadn't developed even the most basic intelligence. Unable to communicate, ignorant of when to advance or retreat, they had nothing but powerful combat strength. In the end, that was all they amounted to. They would never become a real force.
Na'er could just about understand and accept Gu Yue saying they weren't soul beasts.
She could understand Gu Yue saying they weren't soul
