Douluo 2: This Dragon God has too much martial virtue.

Chapter 628 I didn’t cry or make a fuss!
"At least the soul guide is very useful for a soul beast like me who has no offensive means." Biji still had that lukewarm attitude. "After being equipped with the soul guide, even if I face a human Extreme Douluo alone, I will have the strength to fight."

Unlike the other beasts who initially resisted, she was the first to accept and begin researching soul guides. For a healing soul beast like her who wasn't good at fighting, this was the most effective way to improve her self-preservation abilities.

But the Silver Dragon King didn't care. Born with powerful powers borne from her bloodline, she naturally couldn't understand the desire and reliance of a weakling like Biji for power. Rather, she didn't really care whether Biji lived or died. After all, the Emerald Swan belonged to the Phoenix lineage and had no direct connection to the Dragon Clan.

Even if there was a connection, so what? The Phoenix was merely a defeated opponent of the Dragon God in the past, even the Creation Godhead that it controlled was forcibly stripped away by the Dragon God.

Therefore, the Silver Dragon King saw Biji's explanation as nothing more than specious reasoning. She snorted coldly, not even bothering to refute it, or perhaps not knowing how to refute it. Instantly, blazing fire elements, in accordance with her will, emerged from thin air, licking the scattered soul guide blueprints with precision as if possessed by life, instantly burning these precious manuscripts, the crystallization of the ferocious beasts' painstaking efforts, to ashes.

"If I hadn't been disturbed so frequently, I would have been able to come out of seclusion in ten thousand years once my injuries were healed." In her opinion, as long as she recovered her strength at her peak, all problems would be solved.

"Ten thousand years? That's too long." Brigitte looked at the drifting ashes, and for the first time her face lost its usual gentleness and became expressionless.

"With the current rate of development of soul guidance technology, if we do nothing, we will be unable to do anything in ten thousand years."

She clearly foresaw the timeline that the Silver Dragon King had deliberately ignored: while spirit beasts remained stagnant, human technology was advancing at an exponential rate. Ten thousand years later, the balance of power had completely tilted.

In Brigitte's eyes, the Silver Dragon King at this moment was like an unreasonable young lady who chose to use anger and disdain to cover up her own confusion and wantonly destroy things because of her anxiety and inability to understand the changes in the outside world.

However, due to the suppression of the Silver Dragon King's identity as the leader of the soul beasts and his bloodline, Biji and Ziji could only watch all this happen in silence, allowing her to use this somewhat extreme method to vent her anxiety about the future that she herself was unwilling to admit.

"I'm going to ask," Brigitte's gaze followed the falling ashes to the stained carpet. "Destroy everything. Is this your plan for ten thousand years from now? If you can't do it now, will you be able to do it ten thousand years from now?"

These words instantly touched upon the hidden worries deep in the heart of the Silver Dragon King that she was unwilling to admit. The passage of time was not only beneficial to her.

"How dare you!" The Silver Dragon King turned his head suddenly, and cold anger instantly ignited in his purple eyes. A terrifying pressure as vast as the sea came crashing down on Brigitte. She had never expected that a soul beast would dare to question her authority and judgment so directly.

No, there are still some, like that little rebel.

Under the overwhelming dragon's might, Biji's face paled, and she stumbled uncontrollably backward. Instinctively, she erected a powerful soul barrier, and at the same time, her triggered defensive soul guide suddenly lit up, releasing a soft yet remarkably strong pale green light film to protect her.

A flicker of surprise flashed across the Silver Dragon King's eyes. She hadn't expected that Biji's soul guide could actually withstand her might to a certain extent. Even though she hadn't used much power, it was still enough to surprise her. The defensive strength of this soul guide from the human world had indeed exceeded her expectations.

The atmosphere inside the treehouse plummeted to freezing. Ziji silently shifted her position, subtly moving to the side and slightly in front of Biji. Though the movement was subtle, it was a clear protective stance. Hearing Biji's almost provocative words, she sighed inwardly, deciding to go for it. She couldn't let the healer directly face the Silver Dragon King's wrath, even though Biji had initiated the attack.

"You always take your anger out on others. No wonder Di Tian left Xingdou." Zi Ji decided to follow without hesitation.

Outrageous? This time is not a big deal.

"You want to follow him too?" The Silver Dragon King's purple eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Aren't you afraid of death?"

Afraid? Of course Zi Ji was! Even though she was the ruthless and powerful Hell Dragon King, feared by countless soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, she knew that if she faced a truly insurmountable danger, especially when Di Tian was still around, she would retreat behind him without hesitation. It was truly cowardly.

But there was no point in retreating at this moment. She gritted her teeth and replied, "If the master wants to kill me, what's the point of being afraid? It's just..." She didn't finish her words, but her disappointment with the Silver Dragon King's way of doing things was already revealed.

"The things you burned contained Di Tian's blood and sweat." Just when the atmosphere was tense and the Silver Dragon King's murderous intent was about to materialize, Brigitte spoke again.

She ignored the soul-stirring pressure and continued, "He left behind the most manuscripts." Perhaps as the Beast God, he intended to lead by example.

She faced the threat of death and reminded the Silver Dragon King that what she had just burned were not just a few pieces of paper, but the thoughts and efforts that her most capable and loyal subordinate had made for the future of soul beasts.

Before meeting Mu Xing, Biji, like most soul beasts, believed in the most straightforward and cruel law of the jungle: the strong prey on the weak. The strong possess everything, and they need no reason to destroy the weak.

But after meeting Mu Xing, she gradually accepted many new ideas, such as the sanctity of private property and the need to respect the fruits of others' labor...

These concepts may sound ridiculous in the world of soul beasts where the strong prey on the weak, but Brigitte feels that if a tribe wants to truly become strong and orderly, rather than forever remaining in primitive and barbaric fighting, these rules are necessary cornerstones.

The Silver Dragon King felt a pang of resentment at Biji's words, a resentment she herself refused to acknowledge. Di Tian had once been her most trusted aide, the guardian of the Star Dou Great Forest, and one of the hopes for the dragon race's revival. Yet, he had taken all the Life Gold that could have helped her recover from her injuries, and without looking back, he followed the dragon that had appeared from nowhere, leaving her alone at the bottom of the icy lake.

Now, his subordinates were here blaming her for a few pieces of waste paper he left behind?
But she concealed her weakness very well, and there was no wave in her voice. "When he took away all the soul gold, why didn't he think about this day?"

"..." Brigitte stopped talking. After all, she was the first accomplice in digging out the gold of living beings.
