The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1774: Gu Yuena’s Plan?

Gu Yuena was seated on the sofa with her eyes closed, but one could tell from the occasional batting of her eyelashes that she was neither asleep nor meditating. It looked as if she was pondering something.

There were a few more people there as well. The man had long, black hair with a single golden strand and the rank of a senior colonel pinned to his shoulders. The other people each had different figures.

“Your Highness, are we really going to help mankind fight against the abyss this time?” asked the dark-haired man in a deep voice.

Gu Yuena’s eyes remained closed. “It is impossible for something to survive without its foundations. When the Douluo Continent is gone, how are we going to survive? Moreover, this is also an opportunity for us. I came into contact with the abyssal plane once in the past. These abyssal creatures are horrible, and they are many hundreds of times greedier than humanity. They can devour everything, down to the life force, on this plane. We can never allow them to reach this plane no matter what. In this, we share a mutual enemy with the humans.”

“This is a chance we have to take. In the past, the Dragon God’s two rib bones were shed following his evolution, when transformed into two Dragon Spears. There’s more than just the Golden Dragon Spear capable of devouring abyssal energy. On the other hand, the abyssal plane’s rank is superior to the Douluo Continent plane. If we can devour enough life force, perhaps I may be able to restore some of Dragon God’s power too.”

The man in black was silent for a moment before he said, “This is genuinely a good opportunity. Your highness, if you can devour Tang Wulin as well, you will certainly be able to recover and become a God once again. By then, mankind can’t do anything but succumb to our manipulation. We really can’t miss the opportunity again.”

Upon listening to his words, Gu Yuena finally opened her eyes and looked toward the man in black attire. “Do I need you to teach me what to do?”

The man in black forced a smile and shook his head gently. “Your Highness, I wonder if I should say this. I know you have your opinions, but you really are too indecisive and hesitant when it comes to Tang Wulin. Indecision inevitably leads to trouble. Tang Wulin’s growth rate has already surpassed our expectations. Moreover, he has plenty of helpers around him. At this point, I’m not confident that I’d be able to take him down for certain.”

“The Golden Dragon King inherited the Dragon God’s body and also all the negative emotions. Once he has completely assimilated the Golden Dragon King’s power, I’m afraid that even you won’t be able to stop him. Once his instinct for slaughter and destruction is unleashed, it will definitely result in a great catastrophe.”

Gu Yuena looked at him indifferently. She said, “I thought you were counting on such a great catastrophe occurring? Humans make up the vast majority in this world. Even if he does cause a catastrophe, it’s going to strike mankind.”

The man in black was stunned for a moment. “Your Highness, you...”

Gu Yuena waved her hand to dismiss him. “Don’t talk about this anymore. I have my own ideas and I laid out a plan already. The Dragon God will return.”

At this point, a wisp of depth diffused from her eyes. The man in black had not swayed her feelings at all. The few people around her could clearly see her determination and persistence in her eyes.

The man in black said nothing further. He knew very well that Gu Yuena could not be persuaded under such circumstances and it was meaningless for him to continue speaking.

Gu Yuena closed her eyes once again. She could not keep his image out of her mind. She saw him up close the other day and felt pain like she had never felt before when she met his gaze.

It was filled with longing and sorrow. It was as if his eyes were asking her why she was still not with him.

Perhaps, he had figured out something as well.

She could use his lack of strength in the earlier years as an excuse to put him off, but he had become so powerful at this point. With Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect support him, almost no other person in this world could compare to him anymore. What other excuse could she use?

Nevertheless, she still never returned to him all this time. It was because she was really incapable of doing that at this point!

‘Wulin, the plan is real. I already came up with a plan of my own. You may resent me; you may blame me, but this is all I can do. It’s the only way I can think of. After all, I am the Silver Dragon King standing against you! Perhaps the ideal situation now is to wait for my plan to succeed. Do you know that I want to be with you so badly? I want to be by your side at all times.’

Gu Yuena pursed her red lips and clenched her fists instinctively. It would not be long before she could see him again. At least, she could finally fight alongside him once again in the war against the abyssal legion, right? Perhaps, this would be the last time she could be in close contact with him and the final chance for them to fight alongside each other.

‘I should appreciate every day that comes after this. At least, there will still be some time before my final plan. Regardless of how the plan ends up, I am still myself for now. I can still be in close contact with him.’

The abyssal legion was way quieter than expected. With the federal military continuing its march north to garrison the area, the possibility of a surprise attack from the abyssal legion was also decreasing more and more.

The Eastsea Army Corps and the Sea God Army arrived in succession. They joined the Northsea Army Corps to blockade the entire maritime space.

On the ground level, other than the Southern Army Corps that was too far away, the rest of the Northern Army Corps, Central Army Corps, Western Army Corps, Northwest Army Corps were all gathered and prepared.

Seven out of the eight great federal army corps were already there, with only the Southern Army Corps missing.

Not only that, even the Blood God Army’s regimental commander, the Bright Mirror Douluo Zhang Huanyun, led an elite troop and came there as well. There were not a lot of people in the troop, but they were all elite soldiers experienced in fighting against abyssal creatures.

In the entire federal military, the Blood God Army had the most experience dealing with abyssal plane. There was no doubt that they would be able to provide the most insights for the armed forces.

Tang Wulin and his team had been stationed on the mountain peak where the Life Subtree grew all this time. The Life Subtree was growing healthy and strong, and it could be seen from afar.

Even if one could not feel its aura, it exuded a calming sensation for one’s heart and mind just by looking at it.

The thick life source had also seemingly turned into the lifeblood of the entire army.

The Central Army Corps was stationed around this mountainous peak. The deadliest soul defense weapons were set up in the nearby areas as well. Yu Guanzhi kept his promise to fully cooperate with them in defending the Life Subtree.

The defensive line had already been fortified. The required supplies were transported in an endless stream with the addition of a few more army corps. It could be said that the most formidable armed forces of the entire Federation, even the entire Douluo Planet, were gathered there.

The powerhouses from the War God Hall, Spirit Pagoda and a few other great soul masters’ organizations mobilized by the military had all come. A fearsome assemblage of people gathered together in the same place. The federal military was in peak condition as well.

A temporary command post was built inside the Central Army Corps’s defensive position. At the time, the post was bustling with people.

The meeting table in the command post was over a dozen meters long. It could seat over thirty people.

The best people in the Federation had filled all the seats around the long table. There was only standing room for many major general officers and lieutenant general officers.

Two people were sitting side by side on the main seats. They were both colonel generals judging by the military insignia pinned to their shoulders. These two were the Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie and the Divine Brush Douluo Yu Guanzhi.

Two of the three military magnates were there. Moreover, those two people were also Limit Douluo-ranked powerhouses.

The representatives from each of the great soul masters’ organizations were seated in a straight row on their left flank. The person seated at the main seat on the left was the representative of Shrek Academy and Tang Sect, the leader of these two great organizations, the Dragon Emperor Douluo Tang Wulin.

He was the only representative from Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect seated at the meeting table, while the rest of the four attendees were standing not far away from him.
