What's the point of fighting back?
As soon as Gu Yuena finished speaking, the smile on the Golden Dragon King's face vanished instantly.
He stared at his sister as if he were seeing her for the first time.
"What?"
The Golden Dragon King even wondered if he had just woken up from a coma and his mind was not yet fully clear.
" The Divine Realm is destroyed, and the gods are severely wounded. This is the opportunity we have been waiting for for countless years. As long as we take this opportunity to go back and eliminate all those deities, the Divine Realm will return to the hands of the dragons."
His voice grew deeper and deeper.
"Only by defeating the gods can we restore the glory of the Dragon God's era. Only by controlling the Divine Realm can we break the curse placed upon the Soul Beast Soul Beast and grant them the right to become gods once more."
The Golden Dragon King looked at Gu Yuena, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"Sister, how long have you been asleep? Have you already been affected by these humans?"
Lin Yuan stood by and listened for a long time before finally speaking up.
"Your Excellency Golden Dragon King, there is something I may need to remind you of."
The Golden Dragon King glanced at him coldly.
Lin Yuan said, "The fact that Soul Beast cannot become gods was not a prohibition issued by the gods of the Divine Realm. After the Dragon God War ended, it was the Dragon God himself who truly established this rule."
"Presumptuous!"
The Golden Dragon King suddenly turned around, his golden vertical pupils blazing with ferocity.
"What do you know, you little brat!"
A terrifying dragon's might instantly pressed down on Lin Yuan.
"When I was battling the gods, you weren't even a sperm! When did it become your place, a mere human who hasn't even grown a beard yet, to interfere in the affairs of the Dragon God?"
Lin Yuan's lips twitched.
This guy is really direct.
Gu Yuena did not let the two continue arguing.
"Brother, Lin Yuan knows a lot. I will personally verify what he said."
Before the Golden Dragon King could speak, Gu Yuena continued, "Furthermore, even if the restriction preventing Soul Beast from becoming gods truly originates from the Divine Realm, we may not necessarily need Godhood now."
The Golden Dragon King frowned.
"What do you mean?"
Gu Yuena looked up at the night sky.
"We used to think that the Divine Realm was the highest place, and that the only way for Soul Beast to continue growing was to find a way to enter the Divine Realm. But there is a much wider universe beyond Douluo Star, and the Divine Realm is just one place within it."
" Path, cultivation methods of different civilizations, and the evolutionary paths of other life forms can all allow life to reach a level far exceeding the limits of Douluo Star."
Gu Yuena looked at him again.
"The universe is vast; there may well be a place for the Soul Beast Clan to live."
"We may not only have the Divine Realm as our path."
After hearing this, the Golden Dragon King merely gave a cold laugh.
"The Universe? Path?"
He glanced at Lin Yuan, Dan Heng, Xing, and Ruan Mei.
"You've been sleeping like this for so many years, and they're just trying to fool you with this kind of stuff?"
"What star-sea forces, what Path powers—these are nothing but lies fabricated by these humans. Humans are masters of using sweet talk to achieve their goals; those guys in the Divine Realm are like that, and these people are no different."
Lin Yuan's eyes twitched as he listened.
This tastes so familiar.
Not long ago, Tang Hao also felt that the Interastral Peace Corporation, the Xianzhou Alliance, and the Astral Express were all hired by the Spirit Hall to put on a show.
Now another Golden Dragon King has arrived.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to speak, Ruan Mei, who had been standing to the side without participating in the argument, suddenly spoke up.
Even if you wanted to fight your way back, you couldn't do it in your current state.
The Golden Dragon King's gaze suddenly fell on her.
From the moment he woke up, he had actually been paying attention to this woman.
He could sense to some extent the strength of the others around him.
The only exception was Nguyen Mai; no matter how he observed her, he could not fathom the depths of her character.
This feeling made the Golden Dragon King extremely uncomfortable.
Now the other party is directly saying he's not good enough.
"You humans, you have repeatedly bewitched my sister. Do you really think I, the king, would not dare to kill?"
The Golden Dragon King took a step forward.
The area beneath the ruins exploded instantly.
"You have already chosen a path to death!"
Golden dragon scales rapidly covered his right arm, and his once human hand instantly transformed into a sharp dragon claw. The Golden Dragon King gave no one a chance to speak, and struck Ruan Mei's head with a single claw.
He has made up his mind.
Of all these people, the most dangerous is this woman in front of him whom he can't see through at all.
Kill her first.
Then deal with the remaining people.
Finally, they forcibly took the Silver Dragon King back to the Star Dou Great Forest, intending to persuade him slowly after they left these humans.
"Nguyen Mai!"
Lin Yuan had barely uttered a sound when the Golden Dragon King's claws descended.
Di Tian and Gu Yuena's expressions changed simultaneously.
But the next moment, everyone stopped moving.
The Golden Dragon King's palm stopped on Ruan Mei's head.
It did not continue falling.
What blocked him was neither a weapon nor an energy barrier.
It's just one finger.
Ruan Mei raised her right hand and pressed her slender index finger against the palm of the Golden Dragon King.
The golden dragon claw was completely disproportionate to that finger.
No matter how hard the Golden Dragon King tried, he couldn't move it any further down.
His golden vertical pupils widened little by little.
How is that possible?
The Golden Dragon King suddenly increased his strength, and the ruins beneath his feet could not withstand the force, causing large sections of rocks to instantly crumble.
Nguyen Mai remained standing in the same spot.
The hem of her clothes didn't even move.
She looked up at the Golden Dragon King, then bent her finger and gently tapped his palm.
Thump.
The sound was very soft.
The Golden Dragon King was struck head-on by an irresistible force, staggering back seven or eight steps before finally managing to stand firm by shattering the stone pillar behind him with his last foot.
The surroundings were completely quiet.
Di Tian looked at Ruan Mei's hand, then at the Golden Dragon King.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yuena's purple eyes.
Xing quietly lowered the coffee cup in her hand slightly.
It seems we won't need it for the time being.
The Golden Dragon King looked down at his palm, his expression completely changed.
Who exactly are you?
Nguyen Mai did not answer.
She only glanced at the several unhealed wounds on the Golden Dragon King's chest and abdomen.
The forceful exertion had reopened the wounds, and golden blood was slowly flowing down his clothes.
Nguyen Mai walked up to him.
The Golden Dragon King instinctively wanted to retreat, but then realized his mistake and stopped abruptly.
Nguyen Mai extended a finger and gently tapped his chest.
How are you feeling?
The Golden Dragon King snorted coldly, opening his mouth to tell the woman that this level of injury was nothing to him.
But when the words reached his lips, they completely changed.
"The wound hurts so much, I'm just barely hanging on."
The air suddenly froze.
Golden Dragon King: "?"
Gu Yuena: "?"
Di Tian: "?"
Lin Yuan stared at him blankly.
The Golden Dragon King's face gradually froze.
He suddenly covered his mouth.
What was that just now?
Why did I blurt out my true feelings?!
Xing stood at the back of the crowd, watching this scene, and a familiar expression immediately appeared on her face.
She nodded seriously.
"I'm familiar with this."
