I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

The moment Xu Xingyu entered the spatial gate, she did not arrive at the place where she had previously met with the Star Lord, but instead returned to the secret chamber of the Spirit Pagoda where she had been before.

As Xu Xingyu stepped out of the spatial portal, she looked at the surrounding walls and couldn't help but feel a little disoriented. Although Buyer said that she had only been gone for half a year, to Xu Xingyu, it felt like she had been gone for hundreds of millions of years.

Looking at the Spirit Tower he once created, he felt a sense of unfamiliarity. If he were to try to find his room in the Spirit Tower on his own, he would most likely get lost.

Xu Xingyu couldn't help but sigh at the terrifying nature of time. Time is like a butcher's knife; without a firm will, it will cut people invisibly, eventually causing them to lose their original selves over countless years.

If it weren't for the fact that I had placed a backup of my memories in the Star Soul Bead just to be safe, and with the help of my good daughter Buyer, even if I could leave the simulated space in the Origin Realm, the person I would have taken out would no longer be myself, but just a stranger wearing Xu Xingyu's shell.

Can I truly call myself the person I was before? I feel like my situation is somewhat similar to the Frankenstein's monster heroine that some third-rate writer loves to write.

Although I, Xu Xingyu, believe I am still myself, what is the reality? Upon closer inspection, it becomes somewhat terrifying.

However, before Xu Xingyu could think further, he suddenly sensed a familiar presence rushing toward him.

The tightly closed door to the secret chamber was suddenly blasted open, and a beautiful girl with silver hair and purple hair appeared. Wasn't this Gu Yuena, whom Xu Xingyu had been longing for day and night?!

At this moment, Gu Yuena was panting heavily. The moment she saw Xu Xingyu, she could no longer suppress her longing. Her eyes began to moisten and tears began to flow. She rushed towards Xu Xingyu with lightning speed, picked her up, and began to cry silently.

If Xu Xingyu had only gone to cultivate for half a year, resulting in not being able to see her for half a year, Gu Yuena wouldn't have been so agitated. But Xu Xingyu was trapped in the Origin Realm for half a year!

Time in the Primordial Realm flows much slower than in the outside world. If half a year is in the outside world, how long would it take to stay in the Primordial Realm? Hundreds of thousands of years? Or hundreds of millions of years? Would Xu Xingyu who emerged from there still be her Xu Xingyu?

At that time, she wanted to disregard all the lives on Douluo Continent and pull Xu Xingyu out of the Origin Realm directly, even if it would cause the Star Lord to lose a large amount of Origin Power, she was willing to pay such a price to save Xu Xingyu.

Since her birth, Gu Yuena has been bound by the responsibilities of the Dragon God. Although she, as a newborn being, only has a vague understanding of what leadership is, all the soul beasts of Douluo Continent have placed their desire for the rise of the soul beasts on her shoulders. She has never been able to live for herself. She can only slowly recover from her injuries and lead the soul beast race to reclaim everything they have.

The problem is that Gu Yuena genuinely believes this is not a realistic thing at all. With the Golden Dragon King sealed in the God Realm, Gu Yuena has no way to achieve the position of Dragon God. Without the support of the Dragon God, the supreme god-king at the peak, Gu Yuena can only rely on herself.

Even if she hadn't been injured, she would only have the combat power of a half-step God King. And after being injured, because she was recovering from her injuries in the Douluo Continent, a place lacking in immortal spiritual energy, she could only recover to the combat power of a second-level god. It was obviously unrealistic for her to fight against the behemoth that is the God Realm.

Gu Yuena had always held a pessimistic attitude until the moment Xingyu was reincarnated. Only then did she truly see the hope for the revival of the soul beast race. A son of the dragon god who already possessed the bloodline of the dragon god seemed more reliable than herself, the silver dragon king who needed to devour the golden dragon king to become the dragon god.

In reality, Xu Xingyu was indeed better than himself. Not only did he reach a contract with the five great god kings before his reincarnation that would not affect his development of the soul beast force, but the prohibition that the dragon god soul beast could not become a god would also be lifted as long as he achieved the dragon god soul beast. It felt as if the future of the beasts had long been in the hands of the Starry Dragon Emperor.

What amazed her most was the Soul Spirit Project led by Xu Xingyu, which not only forcibly bound the two conflicting races of humans and soul beasts together to prevent humans from having to hunt soul beasts because of soul rings, but also solved the problem of soul beasts' extremely slow cultivation speed.

Faced with such an outstanding Xu Xingyu, Gu Yuena couldn't help but regard him as her support, and in the process, she fell in love with this boy who was obviously younger than her, and eventually became his most beloved lover.

So at the very beginning, Xu Xingyu was in immense torment. Her lover was trapped in a secret place where he could lose himself at any moment. They had agreed to come out in a few days, but instead, he had to wait half a year!

It would be strange if she wasn't worried! You see, she regarded Xu Xingyu as her only support. If she lost Xu Xingyu, putting aside the so-called issues of responsibility, Gu Yuena would be the first person who couldn't bear it!

After all these years of getting along, Gu Yuena had long since become like Xu Xingyu and simply couldn't bear a world without Xu Xingyu!

Looking at Gu Yuena, who was in tears, Xu Xingyu began to comfort his lover. He never expected that Gu Yuena, who always seemed so strong and resilient, would have such a side to her.

However, there's nothing that can be done. Xu Xingyu has really messed up this time, being forced to live as a planet for hundreds of millions of years. Without a copy to awaken her, it would be strange if she didn't go crazy.

Thinking of this, Xu Xingyu couldn't help but start combing Gu Yuena's long silver hair with his hands. Feeling Xu Xingyu's actions, Gu Yuena stared at Xu Xingyu's warm eyes, her eyes red with tears. She knew that her Xu Xingyu was still here, that he had not left her.

Gu Yuena hugged him even tighter in response, and Xu Xingyu could only let her do as she pleased, finally lifting her up in a princess carry to make her more comfortable.

At this moment, the obedient daughter, Buyer, who had been ignored by the two, was genuinely happy for them as she watched the scene before her. After all, as their daughter, she knew how much distressed both sides had been during this incident.

Seeing the two still so loving and affectionate was a very heartwarming scene for the golden ancient tree that had only recently gained sentience.

If possible, could I join them? Buyer didn't want to be treated as an outsider, but she also didn't want to keep eating her parents' PDA!
