Chapter 202: The Silver Dragon King Without a Love Brain Will Surely Achieve Great Things!
"So boring~"
In the villa by the Lake of Life in Star Dou City, Chen Bai aimlessly rocked on a swing.
Di Tian had his own work to attend to and couldn't stay by his side every day. The days of eating and drinking with Di Tian were long gone.
Bi Ji also had her own responsibilities, especially now that she was caring for a dragon egg.
Besides, she was Di Tian's wife—it wouldn't be right for her to constantly hover around him.
As for the other ferocious beasts, none of them were currently in the city, leaving no one for him to talk to.
Most importantly, Gu Yue had even cut off his internet access.
Now he couldn't contact his Evil-Eyed Tyrant friend, nor could he chat with Snow Empress or Na'er.
He could only sunbathe.
How boring!
"Gu Yue, Gu Yue, what's wrong with you? How much longer are you going to stay in seclusion?"
Had he known it would be like this, he might as well have given the Dragon God's heart to Na'er.
Look how obedient Na'er was—aside from that one brief rebellious phase, she had never disobeyed him. Whatever he told her to do, she did it.
She had become almost a perfect reflection of himself.
"Sigh!"
"Guess I'll just treat this as a preview of the days of becoming a god."
"I'm so lonely!"
Jiang Chen sighed quietly.
Just then, Feng Wu, wearing a red dress, walked out. At this point, the only one idle at home was the phoenix herself.
Other than occasionally visiting the laboratory, where everyone fawned over her as if she were royalty, terrified of displeasing her, she had nothing else to do.
Seeing another idle soul beast—the one who was so close to that terrifying dragon—naturally piqued her interest in conversation.
Nevertheless, her innate arrogance remained.
In her eyes, dragons and phoenixes were noble beyond compare, especially the phoenixes, who would never lower their gaze to other species.
But what could she do? The phoenix race had fallen.
"Hey, you—what's your relationship with that dragon?"
Jiang Chen turned his head toward Feng Wu, glanced at her once, and looked away, showing no intention of replying. He leisurely continued swinging and sunbathing.
"Hey! Aren't you being a bit rude? I'm talking to you!"
Jiang Chen picked at his ear.
"Me? Are you talking to me?"
Feng Wu clenched her fists. After sensing him briefly, she realized—he was a soul beast who had transformed into a human.
Her expression turned more disdainful.
He had even abandoned his soul beast body?
She already looked down on most other soul beasts, let alone on humans.
Especially this one—he had once peeped at her, this despicable human!
"Hasn't anyone taught you to look someone in the eye when you're talking to them?"
"Oh, that's right—I forgot, you don't have a family!"
"You bastard!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Feng Wu raised her fist, ready to teach this insolent soul beast a lesson.
The dignity of the phoenix could not be insulted!
Just then, Jiang Chen casually pulled a silver dragon scale from his pocket.
Feng Wu froze mid-step.
"You! How shameless can you be?!"
That was the Silver Dragon King's reverse scale.
From Di Tian, she had felt only hatred, but from Gu Yue, she had felt no hatred at all—only overwhelming fear.
That alone proved the other's level was far beyond hers.
Even the Black Dragon King couldn't suppress her, but this being could.
There was only one explanation.
That one… was the Dragon God!
The Dragon God was still alive?
Even though Feng Wu had joined the Spirit Transmission Tower and gained access to much of its knowledge, she still had no clue about Gu Yue's true identity.
Not at all.
Leng Yaozhu: "I don't know either!"
Feng Wu took a deep breath. In the past, anyone who dared look directly at a member of the phoenix clan twice would have been torn apart.
How far she had fallen.
The proud phoenix, now bullied like a tiger stranded on flat ground.
"I have something I want to discuss with you."
Feng Wu adjusted her tone, trying her best to sound amiable—though her tense expression ruined the effort.
"Speak. What is it?"
Jiang Chen didn't push her too hard. He merely wanted to remind her what kind of world she now lived in.
Even Di Tian no longer strutted around arrogantly.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so admired by the soul masters of the Douluo Federation.
This little phoenix clearly hadn't endured the harsh lessons of society yet.
Yes, she needed some training—to see how treacherous the world could be.
Did she think it was still the old days?
Even he didn't dare be that arrogant now.
"What's your relationship with… her?"
This question had been gnawing at Feng Wu's mind since their first meeting. She had sensed that his relationship with "that one" was somehow different.
Di Tian's connection with her was purely hierarchical—leader and subordinate.
But this man's connection with her seemed… far more personal.
The Dragon God?
Would she really have such a close bond with someone like him? No… with a person like him?
Jiang Chen gave her a nonchalant glance and replied helplessly, "She's trying to recruit me into the dragon race."
"Is… is that so?"
Feng Wu froze slightly.
Inviting another soul beast to join the dragon race… that only ever happened in two ways.
Either through mating—or through shedding one's origin and transforming one's bloodline to become a dragon.
The former was impossible.
That was the Dragon God!
Even if she wasn't the ancient supreme Dragon God, she still possessed the Dragon God's bloodline.
A supreme existence of the dragon race.
How could she possibly be with a mere soul beast?
Then it must be the latter.
Could it be… that even the fallen dragon race had to resort to this kind of method for revival?
Thinking of her own phoenix clan—now reduced to just herself—she naturally felt the heavy weight of revival pressing down on her shoulders.
But to breed young phoenixes with other soul beasts?
She could never accept such a thing!
What kind of lowly creatures could dare touch the phoenix lineage?
"Perhaps… that's also a kind of method~"
Feng Wu didn't ask further. After all, what she wanted to know, he might not even be able—or willing—to answer.
All she needed was to understand his connection with "her."
"Reviving… the phoenix race, huh?"
Watching Feng Wu walk away, Jiang Chen shook his head.
He had once wondered what a phoenix could truly accomplish.
Maybe she could surpass the limits set by the Dragon God and ascend to godhood.
But now it was clear—she was only a 200,000-year-old phoenix. She was still far from enduring the million-year heavenly tribulation required to become a god.
From her attitude alone, she was still bound to the ranks of ordinary soul beasts.
That tribulation would certainly come for her one day.
"Forget it. I'll tell Di Tian later to send her out for some training."
Using her as a research subject for the Federation would be far too wasteful—it wasn't every day one saw the world's only phoenix, radiating unmatched prestige.
She could one day become a great help to the Soul Beast God Realm.
Hmm?
Why was he even thinking about the Soul Beast God Realm?
Jiang Chen paused briefly in reflection. The small God Realm already had him and Snow Empress—it was cramped enough.
Any more, and it would overflow.
Well, since Gu Yue was the ruler of the soul beasts, that would be her problem.
And now that Gu Yue wasn't consumed by romance—no longer with a "love brain"—
her mind was filled entirely with the future of the dragon race.
Surely, she'd finally accomplish great things.
