Gu Yuena.

The moment those three words reached her ears, a tiny, almost imperceptible crack appeared on the polite mask on Gu Yue's face.

Her pupils reflected Na'er's image with a vicious glint in them.

She is Gu Yuena, so who am I?

I am the true form possessing 70% of the power, so why should she be called Gu Yuena?

A surge of rage, almost burning through reason, rapidly ignited in his chest.

Gu, Yue, Na.

These three words, put together, are like a rusty key, forcibly opening the closed door to her heart.

That name, uniquely hers and engraved in the very essence of her soul, was now being spoken so naturally and so easily by her own split self as a self-introduction.

She raised her hand and grasped Na'er's outstretched hand. Her fingertips were icy cold.

"Hello, Gu Yuena." Her voice was surprisingly calm, without a trace of anything amiss. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

They separated the moment their palms touched.

In the depths of Na'er's eyes, the light of excitement was like a galaxy that had been ignited, so dazzling that it almost overflowed from her eyes, and she was just short of writing her pride on her face!

Her smile grew brighter and brighter, more innocent and naive, but she spoke in a voice only Gu Yue could understand:

"You've finally come to see me! I knew you'd come looking for me! What do you think? This name suits me well, doesn't it? I took my father's surname! It has nothing to do with you!"

That heartbeat was lively, affectionate, even a little boastful, and a little annoying!

Deep within Gu Yue's consciousness, suppressed rage raged:

"How dare you..."

Na'er's heartbeat was completely unaffected; on the contrary, she became even more excited, like a little animal that had stolen candy.

"Don't be so serious! Look, with my current status, I'll be able to lead the soul beast race to revive sooner or later. But... you seem quite 'angry'? Is it because of your name, or... something else? Come on, tell me, make me happy!"

"This is none of your business." Gu Yue's consciousness responded decisively, simultaneously erecting an even stronger soul barrier to block the overly active probing. "Remember your identity, quickly merge with me, and we will become the true Silver Dragon King!"

"No way!" Na'er's inner voice immediately took on an exaggeratedly aggrieved tone, but beneath it lay a resolute rebellion. "You just want to become 'Gu Yue Na' so you can steal my mom and dad from me! I won't fall for your tricks! I'm doing great now, I have a home, a name, and people who love me. Who wants to turn back into that cold, big guy with you!"

The clash of conscious thoughts came to an abrupt end, forcibly severed by Na'er.

But the anger that had been stirred up in Gu Yue's heart did not dissipate; instead, it surged even more fiercely in the silence.

It wasn't just because of the presumption of her name, but also because Na'er was so immersed in her "human identity" that she had actually fallen so low as to abandon the dignity of the Silver Dragon King and recognize a human couple as her parents.

Stealing Mom? Stealing Dad?

absurd!

I would care about something like that!

Gu Yue maintained a near-perfect calm on her face, even giving Leng Yaozhu a very faint smile as she approached, before saying, "Hello, teacher!"

Leng Yaozhu nodded slightly and said with a smile, "You haven't had dinner yet, have you? Let's eat together."

The food was quickly set on the table.

As the sun set and the streetlights came on, the restaurant was bathed in a bright and warm glow. Na'er ate even more than usual, her bright eyes curving into crescents. She was so happy to have shown Gu Yue who Gu Yue Na really was today!

You must eat well.

That relaxed, warm, and slightly lazy atmosphere of a family dinner flowed through the air like mercury, filling Na'er's heart.

Gu Yue didn't eat much; she just quietly held her chopsticks, her gaze occasionally sweeping over the affectionate mother and daughter in front of her before quickly looking away.

I don't know why I went to see it.

As dinner was drawing to a close, the sound of light footsteps and the rustling of clothes could be heard outside the door.

Then, the restaurant door was silently pushed open.

Gu Yuexingyan was tall and straight, dressed in dark casual clothes with a neat collar. His face appeared peaceful, even somewhat ordinary, in the bright but not glaring light of the restaurant.

The moment he stepped into the restaurant, Gu Yue's fingers, which were holding chopsticks, paused almost imperceptibly.

She raised her eyes and her gaze fell on the man.

Not right.

As the other half of the Silver Dragon King, her perception of energy and laws far exceeds the limits of human imagination.

But in her eyes, Gu Yuexingyan's aura was like that of a mortal, a true mortal.

There was nothing there.

Or rather, it was restrained to the extreme. In her fully focused spiritual perception, the other person's location was like "nothingness," a being perfectly integrated into the surrounding environment, a feeling of natural perfection.

Na'er also stopped eating, and the cheerful sounds of her eating came to an abrupt halt.

Her silver eyes looked at Gu Yuexingyan, and a hint of affection and reassurance instantly filled her gaze. She called out in a clear, sweet voice, "Daddy's back!"

A faint, relaxed smile appeared on Gu Yuexingyan's face. He nodded to Leng Yaozhu, then his gaze gently fell on Na'er, before naturally turning to the new face at the table, Gu Yue.

Gu Yuexingyan immediately guessed Gu Yue's thoughts. It was simply about finding Na'er.

Thinking that Tang Wulin also appeared in Mingdu, and that he has just reached the first stage of his death tribulation, I should give him a good push. What about the second and third stages?

This is really troublesome. Tang San is invincible in the mortal realm. I wonder if my strength will be enough to defeat even a wisp of his divine consciousness after using the divine artifact.

If it were just a divine thought, Gu Yuexingyan wouldn't care, but with the addition of the super artifact, the Trident of the Sea God, he seemed very uncertain.

The gentle smile on his face remained unchanged. He nodded to the unfamiliar black-haired girl at the table, his voice calm and undisguised: "And this is?"

"Gu Yue, my newly accepted disciple, is very talented," Leng Yaozhu introduced with a smile, then turned to Gu Yue, "Gu Yue, this is my husband."

"Hello, Uncle." Gu Yue quickly lowered his eyes to hide the lingering fear in them.

"Hello, Gu Yue." Gu Yuexingyan responded simply and naturally, pulling out a chair and sitting down next to Leng Yaozhu, seemingly unaware of the female classmate.

Dinner continued. Na'er started eating again, taking big bites and chattering away as she ate.

Gu Yuexingyan ate quietly, occasionally responding to his wife and daughter with a few words in a gentle tone; he was an ordinary husband.

The moment Gu Yue saw Gu Yue Xingyan, she felt as if he had been completely seen through. If she couldn't see through him, could he see through her?

She ate her food in small bites, finding it tasteless and excruciating. She never imagined that this was such a dangerous place.

Her gaze fell upon the man in the main seat, and her breathing grew increasingly heavy.

Just then, Gu Yuexingyan looked over.
