Douluo: After Bibi Dong's abuse, Gu Yuena takes care of her

“You ran away…you ran away alone…leaving us here…”

The Red King's three heads roared simultaneously, each sound like a knife piercing Gu Yuena's heart.

The illusion began to collapse.

But what appears after the collapse is still a deep illusion.

The great purge that followed the fall of the Dragon God.

Gu Yuena saw it.

They saw that the gods had already descended to the mortal realm and slaughtered them...

They saw Di Tian pinned to the bottom of the Lake of Life by the Asura Demon Sword, his dragon blood staining the entire lake red.

She saw the direction the Crimson King looked in before he died, his eyes filled with no blame, only... relief.

I saw Brigitte's shattered divine essence transform into countless emerald light specks, which tried to drift towards her, but were shattered one by one by the destructive lightning...

"no, do not want……"

Gu Yuena knelt on the ground, her long silver hair cascading down.

She tried to close her eyes, but the images were etched directly into the depths of her soul, inescapable.

The seven young dragons circled anxiously around her, but their power was too weak to break through this soul-deep illusion.

Is it painful?

A clear, ethereal female voice echoed through the mist.

The mist condensed and transformed into a woman with a beautiful face but empty eyes, wearing a colorful long dress.

She floated barefoot in the air, holding a crystal mirror with constantly changing images in her hands.

Phantom God.

"These memories were originally buried deep within your soul."

The Phantom God's voice was soft, yet every word pierced the heart.
“I used the power of the Illusionary Sea to dig them out. Now… do you still think your revenge is just?”

She floated in front of Gu Yuena, and the crystal mirror reflected Gu Yuena's devastated expression.

“If you hadn’t run away back then, if you hadn’t hidden away to heal your wounds, if you had come back sooner… they might not have died so tragically.”

"You're the one who killed them."

The last six words, like the most vicious curse, pierced Gu Yuena's already fragile soul.

She began to tremble. Not from fear, but from... self-doubt.

Is what the Phantom God said true?
If she hadn't chosen to lie low and heal back then, if she had fought to the death, if...

"wrong."

A faint yet firm voice suddenly rang out from within Gu Yuena's body.

That was... the voice of the Dragon God's remaining divinity.

"Child...raise your head."

Gu Yuena raised her head blankly.

She saw that among the eight-colored dragon scales on her chest, the emerald green life dragon scale was glowing.

The divine seed left behind by the God of Kindness automatically activated at this moment, releasing a pure, healing, and compassionate life force.

That power wasn't meant to erase her pain, but rather... to make her see the truth.

The illusion began to distort.

The figures of Di Tian, ​​Chi Wang, and Bi Ji gradually faded away, replaced by another memory forgotten by Gu Yue Na—

Those were the words the Dragon God spoke in his last moments before his fall, as he used his last strength to seal her into the rift in space and time:

"Live..."

"Don't look back...don't seek revenge..."

"To survive... is the dragon race's... last hope..."

The Dragon God's voice was weak, yet filled with an undeniable resolve.

He didn't want her to escape, but rather for her to... shoulder the future of the dragon race.

Gu Yuena was stunned.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks.

Those weren't silvery tears of blood, but... pure, transparent tears.

A teardrop fell, landing on the illusory surface of the Lake of Life.

"Ding—" (End of Chapter)
