Gu Yue nodded, her expression serious.
"When I first transformed, I inherited the Silver Dragon King's elemental control ability."
"And you inherited the Silver Dragon King's Physical Body strength."
Na'er listened quietly without interrupting.
Gu Yue continued, "The Golden Dragon King's Bloodline power is indeed formidable, far beyond what a human can withstand, but... you can."
Her gaze met Na'er's eyes as she said word by word, "Although your Physical Body is not yet strong, it shares the same source as the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline. There will be absolutely no problem with the Fusion of the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline."
Na'er inherited the Silver Dragon King's Physical Body strength, giving her a natural affinity with the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline.
For any human, attempting to take in the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline would only result in their body exploding.
Both were transformations, but Na'er was clearly more like a human than Gu Yue.
Her behavior and mannerisms seemed incomprehensible to Gu Yue, yet they were more consistent with the reactions a human girl should have.
However, when it came to serious matters, Na'er also became earnest.
That beautiful little face was now filled with gravity.
Those purple eyes shifted constantly as she analyzed the feasibility of Gu Yue's plan.
A moment later, she spoke.
"Setting aside whether Huo Yuhao can truly strip the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline from Tang Wulin's body."
"Don't forget, Tang Wulin still has the measures left behind by the Sea God on him."
"Are you sure he won't intervene? It hasn't been long since the incident with Di Tian."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue's expression remained unchanged; she had clearly already considered this issue.
She spoke slowly, explaining, "The situation is different now."
"Last time, if Di Tian had extracted the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline from Tang Wulin's body, Tang Wulin would have died."
"The Sea God's intervention might have been to preserve the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline, but it was more likely to protect Tang Wulin's life."
"There must be some close relationship between them."
Then her tone shifted: "But now, the situation has changed."
"Although Di Tian's previous attempt failed, it stirred the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline."
"Now, with the Bloodline erupting, even if the Sea God has hidden measures, they are nearly uncontrollable."
"If this continues, Tang Wulin's only end will be his body exploding."
"So now is the perfect time to strike."
"I believe that to save Tang Wulin's life, the Sea God shouldn't intervene to stop us."
Hearing this, Na'er fell into deep thought.
Those purple eyes lowered slightly, her eyelashes trembling gently as she seriously considered the feasibility of Gu Yue's proposal.
A moment later, she looked up, a smile suddenly appearing on her face.
"Looking at it this way," she chuckled, "Di Tian's injury last time wasn't for nothing."
Gu Yue looked at Na'er's smiling face and asked, "So... you agree?"
Na'er shrugged, showing an indifferent expression.
"You're the main body, after all," she said lazily. "Of course I have to listen to you."
Na'er paused and added, "And with both of us here, even if the Sea God truly intervenes, we can handle it."
She spoke with full confidence.
After all, they were the Silver Dragon King.
Even if the Sea God came in person, after their Body Integration, they might still have the power to fight.
Moreover, that God King is now just a lingering Avatar.
Gu Yue nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this.
The purpose of this return had been achieved.
She asked, "Then when can you return to Donghai with me?"
Four cold drinks were now brought over by the waiter and arranged neatly in front of Na'er.
She casually picked up a glass and took a sip; the cold liquid slid down her throat, making her squint comfortably.
"Wait until the academy's break."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Gu Yue's brow furrow slightly.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Na'er quickly set down her glass and pointed at Gu Yue. "Don't make that face!"
Her voice carried a hint of grievance and helplessness.
"You had me join Shrek Academy as an orphan, and now I'm Yun Ming's precious disciple!"
"If I leave suddenly, there has to be a reason, right?"
"Do you think if I say I'm leaving with people from the Spirit Pagoda, he'll let me go?"
Hearing this, Gu Yue's brow gradually smoothed out.
Even though she often looked down on this Avatar of hers, thinking she was too flighty.
She had to admit that this made sense.
Seeing her expression soften, Na'er continued, "I'll use some methods during this time to ensure I arrive at the East Sea when the academy's break starts, okay?"
She blinked, looking exactly like a little fox that had stolen a fish.
Gu Yue fell silent for a moment before finally nodding.
"Fine, then it's settled."
...
Shrek Academy, Sea God Island, 10,000 years ago
Inside the Cultivation room exclusive to Ma Xiaotao, the temperature was steadily rising.
A faint dark red glow surged around Ma Xiaotao, like flames burning silently.
Her originally pink eyes now also faintly revealed a hint of dark red, as if something was struggling deep within.
The air in the Cultivation room had become scorching and distorted; if it were anyone else, they would have likely been unable to bear the heat long ago.
But Huo Yuhao was different; he stood quietly to the side, his expression as calm as ever, as if the high temperature had no effect on him.
Possessing the Ultimate Ice attribute, he could be said to have gained immunity to both ice and fire.
He remembered historical records stating that Ten Thousand Years ago, the ancestor of Shrek Academy, Tang San, also seemed immune to ice and fire attributes.
However, Tang San's Spirits were clearly the Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Silver Grass, neither of which were related to elemental attributes.
How exactly did he obtain such an ability?
Huo Yuhao couldn't figure it out.
Perhaps that ancestor still held many unrecorded secrets.
"Junior..."
A slightly weak voice pulled him back from his thoughts.
Dark red surged in Ma Xiaotao's eyes, yet she still maintained a final shred of clarity.
She gritted her teeth, maintaining her sanity amidst the pain of the Evil Fire consuming her body, and looked at Huo Yuhao.
"I'm counting on you for today's matter."
Huo Yuhao snapped back to reality and nodded calmly.
"You're welcome, Senior."
A faint blush appeared on Ma Xiaotao's pretty face. Huo Yuhao thought it was because of the Evil Fire outbreak. But what he didn't know... was that the blush actually had nothing to do with the Evil Fire.
Because he knew the history, Huo Yuhao now regarded Ma Xiaotao as a future sister.
But at this moment, Ma Xiaotao's mind was filled with the words of her teacher, the Yan Shaozhe.
"Xiaotao, this child Huo Yuhao has peerless talent and upright character. Moreover, his Ultimate Ice perfectly counters your Evil Fire. If you two could be together, it would be good for both of you."
"I'm not forcing you, I just think this is an opportunity. Think it over..."
These words had been swirling in her mind for days, impossible to shake off.
So in Ma Xiaotao's eyes, Huo Yuhao was not just a junior.
He could also be considered a... "blind date prospect."
