Chapter 707: Fulfilling the Promise: Gu Yuena Recovers

~8 min read 1,492 words

On the other side, after Feihuang left Gulei Imperial City, the place he flew to directly was none other than Life Lake.

The time he had agreed upon with the Silver Dragon King all those years ago had almost arrived, and he was now going to heal the Silver Dragon King.

Firstly, since it was something he had already promised, Feihuang was not the type to go back on his word; secondly, he would inevitably have to fight a great war against the God Realm later, and since the Silver Dragon King wanted to use him, he could also use the Silver Dragon King—who would complain about having too many helpers? Thirdly, his current strength was only a step away from a Supreme God King; even if the Silver Dragon King fully recovered, she would not be his match. If she developed the intention to exterminate humanity as she did in the original story, Feihuang could kill her with a backhand.

If the Silver Dragon King's goal was merely to seek fairness for Spirit Beasts, then he would not mind becoming her ally. Not to mention changing the current status quo of Spirit Beasts, at the very least, changing the Spirit Beast Heavenly Tribulation back to the normal difficulty of the ancient era, without deliberately targeting them, was still doable.

The rule established by the Dragon God—that Spirit Beasts could not become gods unless the Dragon God returned—no longer needed to be followed at a time like this. Although she was the Master of all Spirit Beasts, she did not have the qualifications to cut off the path for so many Spirit Beasts.

Seeming to have known long ago that Feihuang would come, Gu Yuena had already been waiting here for a long time. Moreover, this time she was not in her Silver Dragon King form, but had transformed into a human shape; this was also because the partial healing Feihuang had given her initially had allowed her to recover quite a bit.

This was the first time Feihuang had seen Gu Yuena's human form. She was indeed silver-haired and purple-eyed, flawless and perfect, even surpassing Qian Renxue. However, with Feihuang's current cultivation, he had long since passed the age of being bewitched by beauty. He merely said indifferently to Gu Yuena, "You can transform into a human form now; it seems your injuries have indeed recovered quite a bit. Then today, I can completely restore you."

"Yes, I must thank you for this. Additionally, I must thank you for being able to come today according to our agreement," Gu Yuena said. With Feihuang's current strength, even if he did not fulfill his promise and decided to flip the table, she would have no way to stop him. That he still chose to fulfill his promise brought her a great deal of peace of mind.

"No need for thanks; this was the content of our deal that day, and it should naturally be completed." Feihuang waved his hand, and the Dunjia Heavenly Book floated before him, flipping to the page for healing spirit skills.

"You are ready, right? There is one thing I must remind you of: although I can heal all of your injuries, I am not certain how much power you will have in your peak state once the healing is complete."

The Dragon Clan has always been one of the strongest types on Douluo Continent; the Dragon God was a Supreme God King, and the nine great Dragon King patriarchs of that time basically all had the strength of the God King level.

Theoretically speaking, as one of the two incarnations of the Dragon God, the Silver Dragon King should at least be able to reach the God King level, like the Golden Dragon King. But as the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, who was of the same level as the Golden Dragon, her strength seemed to be at most at the Level One God level when she first recovered from her injuries.

This was perhaps because she had been in a state of severe, unhealed injury ever since she split from the Dragon God, leading to a depletion of her cultivation.

Feihuang could only heal her injuries, but he could not completely restore her cultivation; that could only depend on her own cultivation after her injuries were healed.

"I understand this. Although we are partners, I will not entrust everything to you. I will find a way to handle my own cultivation. Let's begin!" Gu Yuena said. As the Silver Dragon King, she was not the type to complain about others or fate.

Feihuang nodded and activated the healing power of the Dunjia Heavenly Book. With his current cultivation, using this Recovery (High) skill resulted in an astonishingly high healing ratio. If it had previously been a thirty percent recovery rate per day, it was now at least eighty percent.

Beneath Life Lake, the Emerald Swan Biji felt this immensely powerful healing fluctuation and could not help but mock herself, "This is the true number one healing in the world today. Compared to this method of healing, my Emerald Swan ability really counts for nothing."

Ditian wanted to offer words of comfort, but he did not know how to comfort her, because what she said was the truth.

The injuries that the Silver Dragon King originally needed twenty thousand years to recuperate from could be healed by Nan Feihuang in a single day; how could this not make all Healing-type Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts feel ashamed?

After a day and a night, Gu Yuena, who was inside the healing barrier, opened her beautiful eyes, looked at the handsome young man in front of her, and said softly, "It is done, thank you!" Nan Feihuang nodded, withdrew his soul power, channeled the final bit of healing power into Gu Yuena's body, and retracted the Dunjia Heavenly Book.

Having received complete healing, Gu Yuena's entire body erupted with a silver radiance sufficient to cover the entire Star Dou Great Forest.

The light contained various attributes such as fire, water, wind, thunder, light, and more.

As expected of one of the Dragon God's incarnations, the Silver Dragon King mastered the nine elemental powers of the Dragon God, while the Golden Dragon King mastered the Dragon God's destructive power and formidable physical body; both had their own merits.

As the Silver Dragon King's injuries recovered, her power also rose continuously. Once all the brilliance within her body was restrained, Feihuang could see through her cultivation strength at a glance.

Peak Level One God.

As expected, she did not become a God King level, but her foundation remained. As long as she cultivated diligently, Feihuang believed that her breaking through to become a God King was only a matter of time.

Gu Yuena floated slowly in front of Feihuang and thanked him again, "Thank you. My injuries have completely recovered; I will definitely repay this kindness in the future!"

Her current temperament was much better than when she appeared in the original story, and she did not have as much disgust or hatred toward humans.

After all, in this era, the number of Spirit Masters was not high, cultivation was not as easy as in later generations, high-level Spirit Masters were few, and the hunting of Spirit Rings was not yet so frequent. Plus, the decrees issued by the Spirit Hall and the various empires and kingdoms at the time forbade any Spirit Master from wantonly killing Spirit Beasts for soul bones.

The number of Spirit Beasts was still very large; just those existing on the Douluo Continent were no fewer than the number of humans, not to mention those in the oceans and on other continents.

With such a large population, Gu Yuena naturally would not become extremely radical.

Feihuang shook his head, "Congratulations on your recovery, but there is really no need for repayment. Didn't you give me the Tianmeng Iceworm as a reward? That has been of great help to my wife."

"When do you plan to head to the God Realm?" Gu Yuena asked. "You can notify me when the time comes; I will definitely lend you a hand."

Her relationship with Nan Feihuang was one of mutual utilization. She understood that to seek fairness for Spirit Beasts, the God Realm was a place she could not bypass. Going to war with the God Realm was imperative, and helping Nan Feihuang was equivalent to helping herself.

"No rush. I still need to cultivate for a while, and you should too. Your injuries have just recovered, so settle your cultivation well. Having not fought for so many years, be careful that your body doesn't rust!" Feihuang said with a smile, "Then I will leave today. Rest assured, on the day I head to the God Realm, I will definitely ask for your help."

Gu Yuena smiled slightly, "No, it should be that we help each other!"
