Chapter 95 Gu Yue Na'er, and the Bet!
"You despicable thief, you're stealing my power again!"
Gu Yuena stood above the Sea of Spirit, looking at Na'er, whom she had trapped in a cage. Her voice was filled with barely suppressed gritted teeth, and the Silver Dragon King's aura spread out, causing ripples to spread across the Sea of Spirit.
I'm so angry and cold! This is really too much of a bullying of the dragon!
This creature, which split off from her consciousness and carried the memories of that short year of human life, calling itself "Na'er," is practically a tenacious cockroach.
It was clearly a wisp of consciousness that had split off from her own body, yet it had developed a stubborn and unyielding nature, clinging to her sea of consciousness like a piece of chewing gum that she couldn't shake off.
If possible, Gu Yuena would love to completely eliminate this hidden danger and let "Na'er" return to her consciousness.
But she just couldn't do it!
Every time she made up her mind to unleash the power of the silver dragon's origin to kill her opponent, this "Na'er" would always put on a "what's the use" look, her eyes full of the determination that "if you dare to refine me, I will immediately self-destruct and we will perish together."
That was no joke; it was a real threat.
If she were to use that sealed power, Gu Yuena was absolutely confident that she could defeat Na'er.
But she just can't do it!
As soon as she activated a wisp of sealing power, Na'er sensed it and immediately sealed the power back.
If she moves again, "Na'er" will be sealed again!
Because they share the same origin, Na'er is like her shadow, able to accurately sense every touch of the sealing power she makes, and even be able to trigger that power.
What frustrated Gu Yuena the most was that when she first tried to use the sealing power, Na'er actually triggered a full 20% of the silver dragon's essence!
That time, Na'er completely solidified her existence, as if she had taken deep root in her spiritual sea, becoming a scourge that could no longer be easily eradicated.
That's 20% of the Silver Dragon's essence!
Once Na'er self-destructs, not only will those two sources completely dissipate, but even her main body will suffer severe damage, and her cultivation level may even plummet!
There is no greater fear than this: to throw a stone at a rat for fear of breaking the vase.
Gu Yuena took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, her voice icy cold: "Allowing you to survive in my sea of consciousness is already my greatest concession. I warn you, you'd better not push your luck, or else—"
"What else can we do?"
A crisp sound interrupted her words. Na'er, in the light prison, slowly stood up, and seven-colored light rose around her like flowing neon.
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl raised her chin, a hint of defiant stubbornness in her eyes. "If you're really that annoyed by my existence, then I'll just self-destruct right now. We can go our separate ways, out of sight, out of mind, wouldn't that be better?"
The moment she finished speaking, the seven-colored light around her suddenly surged!
Boom—
The entire sea of consciousness suddenly began to churn violently. The once calm space of consciousness was like a lake where a boulder had been thrown in, creating towering waves. Even the mental barrier began to tremble violently, showing signs of imminent collapse.
"you"
Gu Yuena's expression changed drastically, and a dazzling seven-colored halo also erupted from her body, like a cascading Milky Way, instantly enveloping the entire sea of consciousness.
A gentle yet powerful aura flowed slowly, and wherever it passed, the surging waves of consciousness quickly subsided, and the trembling mental barriers gradually stabilized.
When Gu Yuena finally stabilized the precarious sea of spirit, she looked down and saw Na'er sitting leisurely in the ball of light in the light prison, her hands supporting her chin, looking at her with a half-smile.
That calm and composed demeanor clearly showed that he was fearless.
That despicable guy!
Gu Yuena clenched her fists instantly, her knuckles turning white from the force, and her teeth grinding together.
But after a moment, she slowly loosened her fist and forced herself to calm down.
No, I can't act impulsively.
Na'er is a menace; we must get rid of her as soon as possible!
Otherwise, if he lets her cause trouble and steal power in the sea of consciousness every day, his cultivation progress will only slow down, and how can he lead the soul beast race to take revenge on those greedy humans?
Thinking of this, Gu Yuena's tone became heavier, carrying a heavy question: "What exactly do you want? Look outside, look at how badly the soul beast race has been persecuted by humans!"
"Countless soul beasts have perished under the swords of soul masters, and even their last remaining habitat is on the verge of extinction! I am the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts, and I have a duty to lead my people to avenge the blood debt owed to those humans!"
Her gaze was fixed on Na'er, her voice carrying a hint of disappointment: "Although our consciousnesses are different, ultimately, we are both the Silver Dragon King, both rulers of the Soul Beasts!"
"You hinder my cultivation every day and steal my power. If this continues, when will the spirit beast race be able to rise again? When will we be able to take revenge on humanity?"
"Can you bear to watch our people be oppressed and slaughtered by humans day after day?"
Gu Yuena tried to persuade Na'er by talking about the future of the Soul Beast race and the responsibility of the Silver Dragon King.
Although this "Na'er" claims to be a human consciousness, what flows in her mind is ultimately the inherited memory of the Silver Dragon King.
The time she spent with humans was only a short year during her amnesia, so how deep could her feelings have been?
Moreover, the so-called "brother" himself is highly suspicious!
Upon hearing this, Na'er let out a soft snort, her pink lips pouting high, her eyes full of resentment: "Hmph! Humans aren't as bad as you think! Although there are bad guys among them, there are also many good people! Like my adoptive parents, and—"
Her voice paused, as if she hesitated, but she finally bit her lip and clearly uttered the address: "And brother! In short, humans are definitely not all bad people as you say. I will never agree to your revenge plan!"
"elder brother?"
Gu Yuena seemed to have heard the funniest joke, a cold sneer curling her lips: "Your so-called brother is highly suspicious! Think about it carefully, after he saved us, weren't almost all the people involved in that incident dead?"
She approached the light prison step by step, her voice sharp and all-knowing: "And the faint aura of the Golden Dragon King on his body, and the trident mark that flashed briefly on his forehead—"
"Besides these, there are many other suspicious things about him. Do you want me to list them out for you one by one?"
Na'er's face paled instantly, her lips pressed tightly together, her teeth almost drawing blood from her lower lip.
She raised her head, her gaze towards Gu Yuena filled with stubbornness and resentment, yet she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Seeing her like this, Gu Yuena's tone softened slightly, a calculating glint in her eyes: "Na'er, since you believe so much in human emotions, and so much in your brother, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"A bet? What bet?" Na'er suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of vigilance.
Gu Yuena smiled slightly, a confident air about her: "Since you believe so much in human emotions, then let's bet on this. I will use a completely new appearance..."
"I will reconnect with my former family—the parents and siblings you mentioned. I will spend some time with them and try to gain their acceptance of me."
"Then, I will set up a life-or-death situation and force them to make a choice."
Her voice paused, then uttered each word clearly: "Let them choose—whether they want me, or you, Na'er."
"If they choose me, it proves that human emotions are utterly fragile, nothing but false lies. At that point, you must obediently become one with me, and from then on, you will never be able to stop me from taking my revenge."
"If they choose you—"
Gu Yuena's lips curled into a slight smile. "Then you've won. I will use the Silver Dragon's essence to completely separate you, making Na'er an independent individual, no longer bound by my control. How about it?"
Na'er fell silent.
She lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she were engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
Gu Yuena didn't urge her, but just watched her quietly, the smile in her eyes growing stronger.
A moment later, Na'er suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with determination: "Fine! I'll bet with you!"
But she quickly frowned again, adding warily, "However, you must give me a body first! Also, you must hand over the Silver Dragon Spear to me for safekeeping, otherwise who knows if you'll go back on your word after losing and simply refine me!"
Hooked.
A hint of smugness flashed through Gu Yuena's heart, but her face remained impassive. She simply nodded slightly, her voice carrying an undeniable certainty: "Of course. I will now use the Silver Dragon Essence to help you condense a new body."
Before the words were finished, a seven-colored halo suddenly filled the entire sea of consciousness, and even Gu Yuena's body, which was closing her eyes in the outside world, was flashing with a strong seven-colored halo.
"Buzz"
A tidal wave of colorful light surged from Gu Yuena's body, instantly enveloping the entire room.
The light was magnificent and warm, carrying the unique primal aura of the Silver Dragon King, slowly flowing, intertwining, and condensing in the air.
After an unknown amount of time, when the last ray of light dissipated, the scene in the room was completely different.
Two slender figures stood side by side, their silver hair cascading down to their waists like a waterfall, their delicate features as if sculpted from ice and snow, and their petite bodies exuding the unique naiveté of young girls.
If you only look at the outline and appearance, anyone would think it's a reflection in a mirror, but if you look closely, you can see that the eye color is completely different.
One of them had deep, star-like purple eyes, and his gaze carried a cold arrogance that looked down on all living beings.
The other person had clear, moonlit silver eyes, with a hint of cunning and stubbornness hidden in their lively gaze.
What's even more striking is that the silver-haired, silver-eyed girl is standing naked, her delicate, creamy skin exposed to the cool air, gleaming with a faint jade-like luster.
Although still somewhat childish, the silver-eyed girl already possessed a breathtaking beauty, like an elf who had strayed into the mortal world, pure yet with an indescribable allure.
"You despicable bastard!"
Gu Yuena raised her hand to lightly cover her forehead, her purple eyes bursting with suppressed rage, her tone filled with gritted teeth, as if she wished she could devour the half-body in front of her alive.
"You actually stole another portion of my essence while I was shaping your body!"
Just now, when she was drawing upon the Silver Dragon's essence and expending her energy to condense a physical body for Na'er, this bastard half-body took advantage of the moment when she was circulating her power and, like a cunning thief, silently stole a portion of her essence power!
With 20% added, plus the newly stolen 10%, this half-body now possesses 30% of the Silver Dragon's essence. "Hmph~"
Na'er, however, showed no sign of guilt whatsoever. Instead, she puffed out her small chest and met Gu Yuena's gaze with a smug smile in her silver eyes.
"Consider this extra cost as compensation for the emotional distress caused by your imprisonment of me over the past two years; it's not excessive at all. Instead, you should hurry up and figure out how to fulfill that bet."
Her tone was light and slightly provocative, completely disregarding Gu Yuena's anger.
"That's natural."
Gu Yuena took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in her heart.
"From this day forward, you will be Na'er, and I will be Gu Yue."
The moment the words fell, a soft halo shone around Gu Yuena—no, it should be Gu Yue—the light was not dazzling, but it carried a strange power.
Her signature silver-purple long hair was visibly losing its luster, turning as black as ink.
Those amethyst-like eyes gradually lost their deep color, turning into a warm black.
In the blink of an eye, the stunning silver-haired, purple-eyed girl transformed into a pretty black-haired, black-eyed girl with a gentle, refined air.
Gu Yue didn't make any complicated disguises, only changing the color of her hair and eyes, but her unique charm remained undiminished. Standing in front of the bright and beautiful Na'er, she was not at all inferior.
"Hmph~"
Na'er glanced at her twice, gave a soft snort, seemingly not very satisfied with her new look, but didn't say anything more.
She turned around, waved to Gu Yue with her back to her, and her silvery voice floated over: "I'm going to take a shower first. Remember to bring me some new clothes."
"Clatter".
The sound of the door closing rang out, and the bathroom door was gently shut, separating the two figures.
Gu Yue stood there, gazing intently at the closed bathroom door until the sound of running water came from inside. Only then did the corners of her tightly closed lips slowly turn up, forming a meaningful smile.
In those dark eyes, there was no trace of the discouragement after having one's strength taken away; only a composed and strategic mind remained.
Foolish half of you!
Gu Yue sneered inwardly. You think you can stand against me just because you stole thirty percent of the Silver Dragon's essence and the Silver Dragon Spear?
How naive.
That power is merely nourishment temporarily stored with you. Once my cultivation is fully restored, these things will eventually return to me intact.
Gu Yue withdrew her gaze, turned around and walked to the soft sofa to sit down, crossed her legs, and quickly entered a meditative state.
