Douluo Continent: Gretchen at the start, empowered by the Star God.

Chapter 120 Chaos in the Divine Realm

"Are you willing to die like this?" Lang Lei couldn't help but ask. He valued his life and therefore found it particularly difficult to understand such a death wish.

After all, once you're dead, you can't do anything anymore, can you?

Moreover, the Golden Dragon King has hardly ever lived a free life since his birth.

"To say I'm willing is a lie, even I know it myself."

"But she's still my sister..."

"Although she is much more mature than me, sometimes, as her older brother, I also want to protect her more."

"So, grant me this little wish, satisfy my protective instincts..."

Lang Lei was slightly moved. The image of little Gretchen flashed through his mind. Could he do this for little Gretchen?

"Although it's hard to understand, I will try my best."

-

"This Golden Dragon King..." Lang Lei couldn't help but sigh after his spirit emerged from that space.

Then, he saw Gu Yuena hugging her knees, looking like an abandoned kitten.

"Hey, Lord of Soul Beasts, cheer up." Lang Lei squatted down next to Gu Yuena. "This doesn't seem like you at all."

"What am I like in your heart?" Gu Yuena asked without looking up.

"Hmm... Majestic? Noble? Or perhaps beautiful?" Lang Lei recalled, "To be honest, we haven't met that many times."

"Yes, bloodlines are such a wondrous thing..."

"So, what's your opinion?" Lang Lei asked.

"Weak, incompetent, pretentious..."

"He has a clear understanding of himself."

"You!" Gu Yuena stared wide-eyed at Lang Lei in disbelief.

"However, it's understandable. You've been without any guidance since birth, and your understanding is based on incomplete memories of the Dragon God. It's understandable that your mindset is the way it is now," Lang Lei added.

Recalling Gu Yuena's behavior in the original work, Lang Lei couldn't help but add, "I think you're severely lacking in love. I feel that if just one person showed you some emotional care, you'd be hooked. Believe me, if I wanted to, I could easily deceive you to the point of obsession."

Gu Yuena lowered her head. She did not refute him. Now, only the two of them could hear what Lang Lei was saying, so there was no need to refute him.

"Speaking of which, in your and the Golden Dragon King's hearts, the Dragon God should be considered your father, right?"

Gu Yuena nodded.

"You've lost your father, but you still have me. I can be your guide in life," Lang Lei blurted out, remembering what the man had said.

Gu Yuena's expression froze, then several elements appeared in her hand, which she kneaded together and threw forcefully at Lang Lei.

Lang Lei's eyelids twitched violently. This might be, no, this must be the strongest attack he had ever faced!

However, Lang Lei understood the meaning behind Gu Yuena's attack and dodged it instead of taking it head-on.

The next moment, the powerful attack slammed directly into the seal, and almost at the same instant, a powerful shock also erupted from within the seal.

Then, Gu Yuena picked up Lang Lei and ran away into the distance without ever looking back.

Lang Lei didn't disturb Gu Yuena any further. She understood Gu Yuena's feelings, but Gu Yuena had lived for so long and knew everything. Ordinary comfort and advice would be useless; she needed a strong remedy to help her change her mood.

Gu Yuena's attack wasn't entirely aimed at Lang Lei; it was more of a desperate act, using the intention to attack Lang Lei to mask her inner turmoil.

Although they all know it, there has to be something to cover up the ugly scars, doesn't there?

Of course, part of the reason was that Lang Lei's words were so infuriating that Gu Yuena really wanted to punch him.

Seeing Gu Yuena's icy expression, Lang Lei wisely chose to remain silent.

-

"Lord Asura God, something terrible has happened! The seal on the Golden Dragon King has been broken!" A second-level god rushed over to inform the Asura God in a panic.

"What?" The Asura God's expression changed. The words he had spoken not long ago now felt like a slap in the face.

"I'll handle this myself." The Asura God's expression was far from pleasant as he picked up the Asura God Sword and went out.

At the same time, the God of Destruction also rushed to the forbidden area of ​​the divine realm upon hearing the news.

-

"We should go," Gu Yuena said.

"Speaking of which, it feels like our trip went a little too smoothly. I don't think you'd have any problems coming alone, right?"

"You may not even realize it yourself, but you possess a special 'mist' that can block any form of detection. Otherwise, we would have been detected by the central authority of the divine realm the moment we stepped into it," Gu Yuena explained.

"Is that so... I really don't know." Lang Lei nodded. "Then how did you... how did you determine that I am a dragon?"

"A faint connection in the bloodline."

"What an all-powerful bloodline..."

Gu Yuena opened a spatial tunnel and gestured for Lang Lei to go in first.

"Give me some spatial coordinates, I need to stay a little longer." Lang Lei refused, "Don't worry about me, I won't die."

Gu Yuena stared at Lang Lei for a while, then turned and walked into the space tunnel. The next moment, Lang Lei had a mark on his hand.

-

"roar--!"

A deafening roar heralded the Dragon King's awakening and return.

The Golden Dragon King, as the destructive divine essence of the Dragon God, carries the power to destroy the world and endless resentment. The newly unsealed Golden Dragon King's scales shimmer with magnificent light, and its terrifying body, thousands of feet long, and its ruby-like eyes burn with ferocity and rage.

Opposite him were the Asura God and the God of Destruction, who had just arrived.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, the first Asura God naturally dared not be negligent. He unusually donned his armor covered with dark red demonic patterns, and his blood-red eyes revealed killing intent.

The Asura God wielded the Asura Blood Sword, a divine weapon that combined his body and sword into one, embodying all his divine power, ready to face the Golden Dragon King.

At the same time, the God of Destruction also joined the battle, wielding the Scepter of Destruction, seemingly capable of unleashing the power to destroy everything.

As soon as the battle began, the Golden Dragon King, knowing he couldn't prolong the fight, unleashed a devastating dragon's might. His enormous wings whipped up a gale, and his spiked tail, like a mace, swept across everything. The First Asura God and the God of Destruction faced off two against one, their Asura Blood Sword and Destruction Scepter intertwining to unleash world-destroying divine power.

The Asura God launched the first attack. His movements were lightning-fast, the Asura Blood Sword in his hand transforming into a crimson beam of light, aimed directly at the Golden Dragon King's throat. The Golden Dragon King reacted swiftly, his massive dragon claw slashing out and colliding with the Asura Blood Sword, unleashing a deafening roar.

The God of Destruction, not to be outdone, raised his Scepter of Destruction, a black energy ball condensing at its tip, which he launched towards the Golden Dragon King's abdomen. The Golden Dragon King roared, whipping his tail to disperse the energy ball, but the God of Destruction's attack forced him to divert his attention to defend himself.

……

The battle intensified, with the first generation of Asura God and the God of Destruction cooperating perfectly, one attacking and the other defending, forcing the Golden Dragon King into a series of defeats.

However, the Golden Dragon King's power was indeed formidable, and each attack carried a destructive force, forcing the two god-kings to go all out.

During the battle, the first Asura God unleashed the Nine Slashes of Asura, each strike carrying the power to cut through any obstacle. The God of Destruction, on the other hand, released a destructive storm, a black storm that swept across the entire battlefield, making it difficult for the Golden Dragon King to defend against.

However, the Golden Dragon King also demonstrated amazing regenerative abilities, recovering quickly from each injury and continuing to fight.

As the battle continued, the Golden Dragon King gradually went berserk. He knew he couldn't defeat the two gods on his own, so he began to use the power of his divine core. The Golden Dragon King's body began to emit a dazzling light, and the power of the divine core surged within him, making him even stronger.

Faced with the Golden Dragon King's divine core possessing him, the First Asura God and the God of Destruction knew they could no longer delay. They decided to join forces and unleash their ultimate skill, the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms. The First Asura God raised the Asura Blood Sword high above his head, and the God of Destruction pointed his Destruction Scepter towards the sky. The two forces merged together, forming a gigantic sword of light.

Seeing this, the Golden Dragon King roared in anger. He concentrated all his power into his dragon claw, seemingly ready to fight the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms. With a loud bang, the Sword of Judgment of the Three Realms collided with the Golden Dragon King's dragon claw, bursting forth with dazzling light.

……

"It's almost my turn to go on stage..."
