Chapter 224 Planetary Will
Gu Yue opened her mouth, staring in shock at Xuan Li who was greeting her. This aura and feeling... But before Gu Yue could react, after meeting Chen Zhou's deep eyes, a chill ran down her spine and into her brain, making her immediately realize whose territory she was in. She quickly replied to Xuan Li, "Hello, Xuan Li."

Gu Yue forced a smile, but her heart was in turmoil. She could clearly sense the unique aura emanating from Xuan Li, an aura completely different from that of a soul beast, yet imbued with some kind of mysterious power.

She was almost certain that Xuan Li was the embodiment of the planet's will!
As the Silver Dragon King who controls the power of the elements of heaven and earth, she can sense more clearly than anyone else the surrounding elemental energy and all things, which seem to be releasing a friendly aura towards this tiny girl.

All things have a spirit, born and nurtured by nature!
Gu Yue is not Na'er's clone who did not inherit the wisdom of the Dragon God. She is the true Silver Dragon King. Although she lacks memories, the inheritance has been truly instilled into her mind.

Planetary will is not uncommon in the realm of gods. Planetary consciousness, or plane consciousness, is most likely to be born on any plane or planet that can give rise to near-god-level beings.
In other words, this little guy in front of us will be able to completely control the entire Douluo plane in the future and become a genuine first-level god!

Gu Yue was filled with shock and confusion. She couldn't understand why Chen Zhou was so close to the embodiment of the planet's will. What made her even more uneasy was that Chen Zhou seemed to know everything about Xuan Li's identity, and even kept her by his side as if it were all perfectly natural.

Chen Zhou looked at Gu Yue, a deep light flashing in his eyes, as if he could see through her thoughts. He smiled slightly and said calmly, "Gu Yue, how has work been going at the Supreme Research Group lately?"

Gu Yue's heart tightened; she hadn't expected Chen Zhou to ask about this so suddenly. She tried to remain calm and replied softly, "It's alright, I'm just still adjusting to the new environment."

Chen Zhou nodded, seemingly unconcerned by her answer. He turned to Xu Xiaoyan and said gently, "Xiaoyan, how have you been doing at the academy lately? Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Upon hearing Chen Zhou's concern, Xu Xiaoyan's face immediately lit up with a joyful smile, and she quickly replied, "Thank you for your concern, Young Master Chen Zhou. I'm doing well. The new courses at the academy are very interesting, and I'm working hard to learn them."

Chen Zhou smiled slightly and gently patted Xu Xiaoyan's shoulder: "That's good. If you have any questions, you can come to me anytime."

Xu Xiaoyan was flattered and quickly nodded in agreement.

"Big sister, haven't we met somewhere before?"

Xuan Li appeared in front of Gu Yue without her noticing, tilting her head and looking at Gu Yue curiously. Gu Yue was taken aback by Xuan Li's sudden question and couldn't help but feel nervous. She subconsciously looked at Chen Zhou, only to find that Chen Zhou remained calm, as if he didn't care about Xuan Li's question at all.

"We... probably haven't met before," Gu Yue forced a smile, trying to keep her voice calm.

Xuan Li blinked her big eyes, seemingly dissatisfied with Gu Yue's answer. She tilted her head, continuing to stare at Gu Yue, as if trying to recall something. After a moment, she suddenly clapped her hands and exclaimed excitedly, "Ah! I remember! The aura on you is very similar to someone I saw in my dream!"

Gu Yue's heart skipped a beat, and her expression changed slightly. She hadn't expected Xuan Li to be able to sense the Silver Dragon King's aura emanating from her, which made her feel uneasy. She subconsciously took a step back and forced a smile, saying, "Really? That's probably just a coincidence."

Chen Zhou then walked over, gently took Xuan Li's hand, and said softly, "Xuan Li, don't frighten your sister. We should go now; we still have a lot to do."

Xuan Li nodded obediently, still a little confused, but didn't ask any further questions. She waved to Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan, and said sweetly, "Goodbye, sisters! Let's play together again next time!"

Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan waved goodbye, watching Chen Zhou and Xuan Li leave. Only after their figures disappeared from sight did Gu Yue breathe a sigh of relief, but her heart was still unsettled.

Xu Xiaoyan looked at Gu Yue and asked with some confusion, "Gu Yue, what's wrong? You seemed a little nervous just now."

Gu Yue shook her head and forced a smile, "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel a little tired." Xu Xiaoyan nodded and said with concern, "Then let's find a place to rest for a bit."

Gu Yue didn't refuse and followed Xu Xiaoyan to a bench on campus. She looked up at the sky, her mind filled with thoughts. Xuan Li's appearance made her realize that she might have underestimated Chen Zhou's abilities and the strength of the Beast Merchant Guild. If even the embodiment of the planet's will could be controlled by Chen Zhou, then her previous plan had probably completely failed.

She had initially thought that by getting close to the Beast Merchant Guild, she could learn about their technology and power, and perhaps even find a way to secure a future for the Soul Beast race. However, she now found herself seemingly trapped in a situation beyond her control. Chen Zhou's unfathomable depths, Xuan Li's appearance, and the Beast Merchant Guild's suffocating technological prowess all placed unprecedented pressure on her.

Gu Yue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She knew this wasn't the time to panic; she had to re-examine her plan and find a new breakthrough.

"Xiaoyan, I'm going back now. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't stay up too late."

Gu Yue had only been sitting for a few minutes when she stood up and spoke to Xu Xiaoyan. Her tone carried a hint of apology, but more so, determination. She knew she couldn't waste any more time; she needed to adjust her mindset and replan her next move as soon as possible.

Although Xu Xiaoyan was a little disappointed, she nodded understandingly: "Okay, then be careful on your way. If we have time, we can go out and play together again."

Gu Yue smiled slightly and gently patted Xu Xiaoyan's shoulder: "It definitely will, thank you, Xiaoyan."

After saying goodbye to Xu Xiaoyan, Gu Yue walked out of Donghai Academy alone. Night deepened, and the streets were deserted, with only the streetlights casting a soft glow. Gu Yue walked along the quiet street, her heart filled with unease. She reflected on everything that had happened that day, especially Xuan Li's appearance, which gave her an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"The Spirit Pagoda, Gu Yue?"

A deep, sneer rang out, causing Gu Yue to turn around abruptly. A tall figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

The man was dressed in a long black robe, with a cold and stern face, and his eyes held a hint of disdain and mockery.
