--- Chapter 204 ---

In the Northern part of the Douluo Continent, where vast white lands filled with pure snows, an eerie black portal abruptly was tearing through cold winds.

A gloomish creature that looked like an orc slowly walked out of the portal with a dark aura and seemed to taint the pure white snow scenery.

Swoosh!

The cold winds washed through the entire extreme north, and a white-haired woman in a snowy dress arrived in the skies.

She stood around 6 feet with a gorgeous figure, had smooth long white hair, and a pair of cold blue eyes, which made her look like an absolute ruler of this place.

"Who are you...?" She coldly asked because this unknown creature was actually brave enough to spy on her domain.

It was a moment ago when she perceived an unknown presence in the extreme north, but this does surprise her slightly.

"You didn't even open your mouth, huh." The white-haired woman's eyes shone with a cold gleam.

She gently raised her palm, and the surroundings danced according to her will, creating an absolute field with an excessively minus temperature.

The creature roared because it felt danger, but it was too late because a deep blue sword entirely made of icy crystal appeared in the skies.

"Empress's Sword."

The sword suddenly burst out piercing cold light and quickly became whitish snow. It fell to the ground and sealed everything on its path into solid ice.

The white-haired woman landed in front of the unknown creature, which was frozen and looked like an ice sculpture.

Crack! Boom!

"I'm Snow Empress. I won't allow someone to trespass into my land." She indifferently declared while gently touching the ice sculpture, destroying it into crystal dust.

Snow Empress glanced at the snowy skies and mumbled, "First was the unknown dragon roar, and now this creature."

"...What actually happened on this continent?"

--- Forest ---

Yunlong gradually opened his eyes and noticed a pair of pure eyes staring at him. He also felt his head lean on something like a soft cushion, which was Kaguya's thighs.

"You're back?" Kaguya asked while caressing his hair.

"I'm back," Yunlong responded with a calm expression.

Yunlong had tested the water when fighting Asura God a few minutes ago, and he confirmed his strength wasn't enough. Even his possibly most potent attack couldn't even scratch that man's body.

"Kaguya." Yunlong solemnly looked at Kaguya.

"Yes?" Kaguya tilted her head because Yunlong's tone suddenly changed.

"The peace you've longed for might take some time to happen." Yunlong suddenly asserted, which surprisingly didn't even shock Kaguya.

"I... I've promised you it may take a few months, but my thought was too shallow." He continued with a sigh. "I have seen the bigger picture now, and it clearly wasn't as simple as I expected."

Kaguya's expression was stoic even after hearing Yunlong's honest confession.

"Yunlong," She calmly returned. "The peace I desired, are you actually able to accomplish it?"

"I can, but it may take some time to achieve it..." Yunlong quietly answered.

"Then, it doesn't matter." Kaguya smiled slightly at him.

"This world is way bigger than I expected, and even my former self couldn't change it instantly."

"I had realized this when I received a piece of memory from this body."

"However, I trust you and only you."

"We're connected, and you definitely can shape a better future compared to me."

Yunlong was speechless for a moment and couldn't help but chuckle slightly after. Kaguya not only motivated him but also convinced him even more.

'Right... I have a lot of things to protect, Bibi Dong, Renxue, my maids, this world.' Yunlong thought while closing his eyes.

Yunlong closed his eyes and suddenly released a sigh of relief.

"I only have to become stronger and stronger, make everything into my weapon so that I can protect them... Achieving something impossible."

He looked at Kaguya and naturally said, "Kaguya, thank you."

"Hmm?" Kaguya cluelessly looked at him.

Yunlong chuckled once again because she looked so adorable with that expression.

He shook his head and said, "Well, let me rest for a moment. We'll continue our journey later."

"Mhm." Kaguya nodded her head.

Near a lake, Yunlong was peacefully resting on Kaguya's lap and slowly restored his strength.

Kaguya serenely observed Yunlong's face and sometimes caressed his face with a gentle touch, and it was a peaceful yet eternal moment for her.

"How peaceful..."

.

.

Yunlong opened his eyes and felt greatly refreshed physically and mentally, though he also felt more powerful for some reason.

"I broke through," Yunlong muttered with a surprised tone. "Should I... No, let's slowly add more spirit rings to my other martial souls."

Yunlong had tasted Asura God's power, and an unstable growth of strength won't help him against such a powerful opponent.

"Do it slowly, huh." Yunlong suddenly remembered Jin Eyu's words, which caused him to smile inside.

Yunlong lifted his head from Kaguya's soft thighs and looked at her gently. "We have a mission. Let's go." He said while handing his left hand.

"What mission?" Kaguya asked while grasping his hand.

"Finding a dragon," Yunlong answered truthfully.

They quickly flew away from their current situation and moved to Star Dou Forest, where the dragon they wanted to meet was residing.

Yunlong hasn't finished the third book, but he pretty much knew the driven plot, which really helped him in the current situation.

[Quest: Asura God's first trial]

[Objective: Find The Silver Dragon King]

[Reward: Unknown Reward from Asura God, 500k Sp, 1x Random Spirit Ring]

Yunlong reed the system panel with a wry smile because if other people had this trial, they might have had a hard time, considering Silver Dragon King's presence was unknown.

However, Yunlong was different because he almost finished the third book, which took place 20,000 years ahead of this time.

Silver Dragon King was half of Dragon God, and she literally ran away and hid within Star Dou Forest's core area after Divine War.

Even though it sounds easy because Yunlong only has to find her, Star Dou Forest has quite an amount of 100,000 years old spirit beasts.

Well, some of these spirit beasts even surpass 200,000 years old. They are generally more powerful compared to titled douluo like Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo or ant titled douluo weren't weak, considering their cultivation could still be growing. But Golden Eyes Black Dragon, who had more than 800,000 years old cultivation, clearly overpowered them.

Maybe only a few people in this continent could fight this spirit beast, which Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, Jin Eyu, and other people he hasn't met yet.

"I hope Di Tian won't give me such a hard time..." Yunlong sighed slightly.
