Dragons!
What a powerful race they were back then, far surpassing the current strength of the Divine Realm; even the Soul Beast were protected because of them.
And it was because the Dragon God "went mad" that the entire dragon race was slaughtered, leaving only a few dragons alive.
When the Dragon God finally regained consciousness, he didn't think about how to preserve the strength of the Dragon Clan. Instead, he left a divine decree that no Soul Beast was allowed to become a god until a new Dragon God appeared.
The reason why the Dragon God did this was even more bizarre.
The Dragon God believed that without his presence, the Soul Beast would perish.
The truth is that many powerful Soul Beast possess the strength and talent to become gods, but they are restricted by this rule of heaven and earth from the Dragon God.
If Tang San hadn't sought the power of the Dragon God, and his beloved grandson Lan Xuanyu hadn't ultimately become the Dragon God with his planning and help, the Soul Beast Clan would probably have been wiped out long ago.
Currently, the entire Soul Beast Clan on the Douluo Continent is only being supported by Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King.
The enemies she will face are the Five Great God Kings of the Divine Realm, eighteen First-Level God, two hundred and sixteen Second-Level Deity, one thousand eight hundred and forty-seven Third-Class Deity, more than ten thousand first-level priests, and heavenly hunters!
Even in her complete form, Gu Yuena was only at the Half-Step God King Realm.
Even though Di Tian was incredibly powerful in the lower realms, he was only slightly stronger than a divine official.
If the Divine Realm Soul Beast Clan were to become even greater, only Gu Yuena would have been able to put up a fight.
But now Kong Xuan's appearance has given Gu Yuena hope. Even though it still seems insufficient compared to the power of the Divine Realm, at least a change has occurred.
Seeing Gu Yuena's slightly excited expression, Di Tian's expression remained unchanged, clearly indicating that he did not completely trust this suddenly appearing unfamiliar deity.
However, seeing that Gu Yuena had clearly stirred up the emotions of the others, he didn't try to dampen their enthusiasm at this moment. He just felt that he should observe Kong Xuan more closely when they interacted with him in the future.
Gu Yuena then recalled Kong Xuan's words before they parted ways, and after thinking for a moment, asked, "I've been in the human world for several months now, but I still don't feel as human as Kong Xuan. Do you have any suggestions?"
The Silver Dragon King sought their opinions, and the Ferocious Beast all felt somewhat flattered.
Such opportunities are rare, so they need to make the most of them.
While the other Ferocious Beast were still deep in thought, a deep voice rang out.
Humans love delicious food!
Humans love to sleep!
Humans also like to fight!
Gu Yuena looked at Xiong Jun's tall figure. "..."
However, just when Gu Yuena thought Xiong Jun was only spouting useless nonsense, his subsequent viewpoint surprised her and made her realize that it made some sense.
"My lord, humans are masters of hypocrisy." Xiong Jun grinned, his sharp fangs gleaming coldly. "They clearly want it in their hearts, but they refuse with their mouths; they clearly hate it to death, but they can still smile on their faces!"
Di Tian sneered, " Xiong Jun, how did you become so cunning after becoming the sect leader?"
Xiong Jun retorted, "That's called survival wisdom! Isn't that how humans have thrived?"
Gu Yuena frowned and remained silent. During the few months she had lived at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, she had come to understand some of what Xiong Jun had said.
Bi Ji gently shook her head and said softly, "My lord, human emotions are more complex than they appear. They can be hypocritical, but they also possess genuine warmth."
"For example..." she lowered her head slightly, her voice gentle, "Humans care for their companions, sacrifice for their loved ones, and grieve over separation. If Your Majesty wishes to immerse yourself in these emotions, you might try to experience them."
Gu Yuena asked thoughtfully, "You mean... love?"
Bi Ji smiled and said, "Exactly. What makes humans so special is their willingness to give everything for emotions."
Xiong Jun scoffed, "Hmph, so-called feelings are nothing but a symbol of weakness."
This time, Di Tian didn't refute Xiong Jun. Instead, he frowned and looked at Gu Yuena: "My lord, human emotions are a deadly poison to Soul Beast. You must not try it lightly!"
As he spoke, Di Tian gave Bi Ji a serious look, somewhat annoyed that she had told the master these things.
"Ten thousand years ago, some Soul Beast Transformation and developed feelings for humans, but these relationships always ended in tragedy, causing immense harm to the Soul Beast Clan!"
Although Di Tian did not name names, the negative examples he was referring to were naturally Ah Yin and Xiao Wu, the two traitors from the Soul Beast Realm.
As human beings Soul Beast Transformation, the two of them seemed to genuinely believe they were human.
He gained benefits through nepotism and ascended to the Divine Realm, but completely forgot about the Soul Beast of the Douluo Continent. So calling him a traitor to the Soul Beast is not an exaggeration.
It's unclear whether Di Tian knew their true ultimate fate, but at this moment, in his words, Ah Yin and Xiao Wu's story ended at the moment of sacrifice; otherwise, how could it serve as a warning and educational tool!
"Therefore, my lord, you must never try to experience what humans call love in order to become more like a human!"
Di Tian's tone was sincere, and his gaze towards Gu Yuena was filled with deep worry.
If Gu Yuena develops what is called "love" for humans, he feels that the true end of the Soul Beast Clan will likely be approaching.
So whether it was out of concern for the future of the Soul Beast Clan or out of an "old father's" instinctive wariness of "Yellow Hair," he had to correct Gu Yuena's thoughts at this time, and absolutely could not let her develop any intention of exploring human love.
Gu Yuena hadn't expected Di Tian to suddenly become so serious, and instinctively nodded, saying, "I don't need to experience the love and affection between humans. I just want to better integrate into human society right now."
Di Tian, not wanting to continue the topic, glanced to the other side and asked, " Myriad Demon King, do you have any suggestions?"
The Myriad Demon King the Demon-Eyed Demon Tree chuckled sinisterly, "My lord, I believe that humans are most adept at scheming."
"They may appear friendly on the surface, but they could be setting traps behind your back."
He extended his vines, mimicking a human handshake. "They may appear to be cooperating well on the surface, but they could very well stab you in the back."
Di Tian was quite satisfied with his point of view, thinking that it might make Gu Yuena more vigilant.
Seeing Gu Yuena deep in thought, Di Tian spoke in a deep voice, "My lord, the reason why humanity is so complex is because they possess both light and darkness."
"If you want to truly understand them, you can't just learn the surface; you have to delve into their souls."
Di Tian thought for a moment and asked, "Who does Your Majesty feel is the person you are most familiar with right now?"
Gu Yuena blurted out, " Kong Xuan, he looks a lot like a human, so I guess you could call him a person!"
Di Tian then asked, "What do you usually call each other?"
Gu Yuena was puzzled, but still replied, "It's just a normal way of addressing someone by their name."
A glint of light flashed in Di Tian's eyes, and he smiled, "Those who are truly close to us often don't address each other by name directly."
Gu Yuena was taken aback upon hearing this, then suddenly realized something.
She thought about her time at the academy, and it seemed that was indeed the case.
Xiao Hongchen refers to Meng Hongchen as "Meng".
Kong Xuan called Kong Ling " Ling'er ".
Xu Wei also calls Xu Tianyi " Old Xu ".
Some people even call each other by nicknames.
Gu Yuena nodded. "I think I understand!"
Seeing Gu Yuena's expression, Di Tian's face also showed a satisfied look. "This is just an example. If you really want to understand humanity, you can start with such small things."
Gu Yuena's inquisitive gaze was satisfied, indicating that she had learned something.
It's likely that no one will know that today we are in the most dangerous Core Circle of Star Dou Great Forest.
A group of Ferocious Beast actually discussed how to act more like a human.
Moreover, if the Ferocious Beast dare to teach, then our Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, also dares to learn!
