Douluo: Dragon King Huo Yuhao Lives Ten Thousand Years Later

Chapter 24 God King?

Gu Yuena finished the welcoming banquet arranged by Hua Yichen with a heavy heart, and sat down in the living room, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

"Come to think of it, the aura of that super artifact has nothing to do with the five great divine kings in the divine realm. Although it bears some resemblance to the aura of the Goddess of Life, its origin is even more terrifying than that of the Goddess of Life, and is not much different from the origin of the universe that the Dragon God has comprehended. Such an existence should not be born in the divine realm."

"Furthermore, the gods of the divine realm don't care about the life or death of soul beasts, let alone study soul contracts. Doesn't he belong to this universe? Is he a god king from another divine realm?"

No matter how much Gu Yuena wanted to get rid of this thought from her mind, the words "God King" still kept lingering in her mind.

She had just arrived in the East China Sea and had probably offended a Divine King from another world! This Divine King from another world had been on friendly terms with the Soul Beast Clan for ten thousand years!

If Huo Yuhao had not held a grudge and had only used the super artifact to warn her, Gu Yuena felt that she needed to consider a plan to escape with the soul beast, otherwise her life would be in danger.

After waking up, Long found that the Douluo Continent was becoming increasingly confusing. Humans and soul beasts coexisted harmoniously, the divine realm above him suddenly disappeared, the abyss plane inexplicably attacked, and the divine kings from other realms were also making plans here...

A teacup was placed on the table in front of Gu Yuena. The faint fragrance slowly flowed into her body with the hot steam of the tea, interrupting her thoughts.

Gu Yuena looked up and saw that Huo Yuhao had just withdrawn his hand.

At this moment, they were the only two people left in the living room.

Hua Yichen had already left, apparently intending to let the two juniors communicate on their own.

Huo Yuhao smiled faintly when he saw Gu Yuena coming. "You've been sitting here in meditation for a long time. Are you feeling a little drowsy from riding the spirit plane? Have a cup of tea to refresh yourself... Your Majesty the Silver Dragon King."

Gu Yuena's eyes flickered, her heart sinking. Her previous suspicions became more and more certain. She stared at Huo Yuhao and asked, "Why do you want to stay in Douluo Continent? There's nothing here that could attract you, or... do you want the Dragon God's legacy?"

If there is anything in Douluo Continent that can attract a God King, then the only thing left behind by the Dragon God is it.

Huo Yuhao looked at her in surprise, then smiled and shook his head, "I know the location of the Golden Dragon King's divine core. If I really wanted it, why would I stay here?"

Gu Yuena's heart was filled with turmoil, her pupils constricted, "Does he still have his divine core?"

But what she was more concerned about was Huo Yuhao's knowledge of the God Realm's situation. After all, the Golden Dragon King could only have died in battle in the God Realm. Since he knew the Golden Dragon King's final fate, did Huo Yuhao know the whereabouts of the God Realm? Or was he related to the God Realm's disappearance?
Huo Yuhao did not answer, but just looked at Gu Yuena indifferently, which made the latter feel a sense of pressure.

"Have you forgotten, sir, that when it comes to the Dragon God's legacy, you yourself are it?"

Gu Yuena's expression changed slightly, and then she fell silent.

Yes, if the other party is after the Dragon God's legacy, then just kill her and take her bloodline and power. Does she still have the chance to chat here?
A God King who carries a powerful super artifact must have more backup plans than her. Maybe he can immediately recover his cultivation if necessary. Gu Yuena believes that she was not his opponent even in her heyday, let alone herself now.

But if it’s not for the things left behind by the Dragon God, why is the other party staying here?
Thinking about it, Gu Yuena suddenly thought of a special situation.

Could it be that he just... simply wants to stay in Douluo Continent?

After staying in the divine realm for too long, some gods will get bored and, after inheriting their thrones, will flee to some continents to reincarnate and enjoy life. (The previous generation of evil and good gods gave a thumbs up)

Did Huo Yuhao accidentally arrive in Douluo, find this world fascinating, and stay? For ten thousand years, he'd been reincarnating in a corner, enjoying life? Was it only now, with the abyss's invasion and disruption, that he was ready to return to the forefront?

Gu Yuena's imagination was getting wilder and wilder, but she couldn't be sure. However, in order to prevent herself from continuing to overthink, she could only use this guess to soothe her heart. She suppressed her thoughts, stood up and said solemnly:

"I was rude before. The situation of human reconstruction is very strange. I tried to test you, Your Excellency. Please forgive me."

"nothing."

Huo Yuhao chuckled and shook his head, "However, attributes above the ultimate level are not what a human spirit master should possess."

Gu Yuena's eyebrows jumped. "The martial soul I displayed to the outside world only controls six common elements." "According to the records of the Spirit Pagoda, the powerful martial souls of human spirit masters who control elements can only call upon three elements at most."

Gu Yuena: "..."

Does this mean I have no common sense?

Gu Yuena was unable to refute for a moment.

It is impossible to understand humans and know everything in just a few years. It will take her a long time to fully understand humans.

Huo Yuhao did not continue to delve into this topic, but took out an identity card and admission certificate and handed them to Gu Yuena.

"The necessary procedures for admission to Donghai College have been completed. You can report after school starts."

Gu Yuena took the certificates and looked at Huo Yuhao, who was about to leave, with complicated eyes. She asked in a serious tone:

"You seem to have gotten used to living in the human world. Do you like it here?"

Like it?
Huo Yuhao stopped when he heard that and turned his head to look out the window.

Tall buildings stood in a forest, their glass curtain walls gleaming golden in the setting sun, like a forest of metal rising from the ground and reaching the sky. The streets were bustling with traffic and people, and the clamor of traffic could be heard faintly through the windows.

"After ten thousand years, this place has become somewhat similar to my hometown."

Gu Yuena was stunned and turned to look outside.

Is this God-King's hometown what it looks like today?

Through the window, Gu Yuena happened to see a soul-guided plane taking off and flying towards Tianhai City, which made her heart move.

Speaking of which, ten thousand years ago, this person established the Soul Pagoda, left behind soul contracts and various soul guide ideas, was it all for today, to make the world more like his hometown?
Is his hometown a world where humans and beastmen coexist equally and technology is advanced?

Huo Yuhao quickly withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment, used mind sharing to connect with Shang Gu Yuena, and passed some knowledge to her.

"You don't need to keep testing my intentions. As long as you don't cross my line, I won't attack you. If you're still worried, this is an equal contract modified from the core of the Soul Contract. You understand the consequences of signing it, but it can only be used to restrain those below the god level. Once you regain the god level, you can release it yourself."

Huo Yuhao walked towards the door and added one last sentence.

"Of course, it didn't work for me."

Gu Yuena: "..."

The last sentence goes without saying, really.

When the door closed, Gu Yuena felt as if all the pressure was gone. She breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the sofa, and recalled the equal contract in her mind, her brows furrowed.

She naturally knew the purpose of this contract. It did not involve any god-level power. In other words, it was just a contract used by the other party to calm her emotions. In a sense, it was just a formal contract. Was she going to sign it in exchange for peace of mind?

Gu Yuena hesitated for a moment, then saw the teacup on the table.

Hmm... wouldn't it be impolite not to drink the tea poured for her by a God King?
