Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler
chapter-224

--- Chapter 224 ---

A few seconds after Yunlong and Bibi Dong suddenly were teleported to the Night Forest, Kaguya quickly noticed something was wrong.

"Yunlong's presence is gone." Gu Yuena frowned while looking at the window, where the garden view clearly was displayed.

Gu Yuena closed her eyes and sensed a faint space wrap around the garden area, which triggered her for some reason.

"Does the enemy ambush him? No, that would be a foolish decision." She muttered with a weird expression.

"Yunlong and his mother were drawn into another dimension." Kaguya suddenly said, which caught Gu Yuena off guard. "I don't know where exactly, but I don't sense any malice."

"He should be fine for the meantime." She calmly continued while using her perceptions to grasp the surrounding fabric space.

Gu Yuena silently stared at Kaguya with a surprised expression because she didn't expect her to have such knowledge over space and dimension.

She had expected Kaguya to be a somewhat unusual individual because she was already on Yunlong's side before her. It seemed that she still had many secrets that only Yunlong knew.

"Don't stare at me like that..." Kaguya suddenly commented while moving her byakugan to Gu Yuena, whose lips twitched slightly in annoyance.

"Hmph, who is staring at you." Gu Yuena indifferently returned. "I was looking at that window."

Knock! Knock!

"Senior Yunxi, we are back." Bai Xue's calm voice entered the room.

"Wait, I'll open the door for you." Chu Yunxi smiled slightly and opened the door for the maids to enter, who were satisfied with their holiday.

Bai Xue and her fellow maids entered the room and instantly noticed three powerful beings, which caused them to up their guards.

"Who..." Bai Xue looked at Kaguya, who casually stared at her with gleaming clear eyes.

Chu Xiaoyu suddenly drew her blade and warily gazed at Xue Nu because she felt a great danger from this woman. It was her instinct that told her that she was higher for some reason.

Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing and Yu Ning'er were standing there in awe because their bodies instinctively trembled when Gu Yuena glanced at them.

"What is this feeling?" Zhu Zhuqing muttered and felt her martial soul tremble in fear.

Gu Yuena calmly sipped her tea and questioned, "Who are these kids?"

"Kids..." Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but feel annoyed for some reason.

Chu Yunxi slightly shook her head and slowly explained what occurred to both sides, which ended the short conflict that was about to happen somehow.

The room quickly was filled with tension, and another knock appeared out of nowhere.

Knock!

"I have something to talk about with Bibi Dong, hmm?" Liu Erlong opened the door and walked into the room without any problem.

"Eh, What happened here?" She added while looking at Chu Yunxi.

'Young master, I did my best...' Chu Yunxi wearily sighed.

--- Following Day ---

Yunlong arrived at the garden with Bibi Dong in his hands, and many gazes immediately peered at his body.

"He's back." Gu Yuena commented while leaning on a white wall near Bibi Dong's office. "It seemed your knowledge over space and dimension wasn't that bad."

"Hmm?" She suddenly frowned because Kaguya had already disappeared from her original position.

Kaguya literally flashed to Yunlong's side and spontaneously grasped his shoulders, looking him up and down for a few seconds.

"You're okay..." Kaguya gradually released her hands off Yunlong. "I was worried something happened to you."

"Don't worry. It's not a dangerous situation," Yunlong replied with a slight chuckle.

Gu Yuena slowly approached them and realized something about Bibi Dong had changed because not only did her appearance change, but her blood was also surprisingly filled with dragon aura.

'Did they...' Gu Yuena's eyes widened for a second.

Bibi Dong obviously noticed Gu Yuena's weird gaze, but she only smirked and confidently walked toward her office because she had things to do.

Yunlong's maids appeared one by one, and they looked at him with a nostalgic gaze, except for Xue Nu, who's the newest maid and only followed them because it was her duty.

"Young master." Bai Xue bowed her body slightly.

"I'm back." Yunlong smiled while patting Bai Xue's head. "I see that you've become stronger."

"Mhm, thank you, young master." Bai Xue humbly responded with a nod.

Yunlong observed his maids one by one and sensed their cultivation had reached spirit emperors except for Bai Xue, who was still spirit king.

Their strength is abnormal compared to teenagers of their ages, but considering how many resources, raw talent, and effort they spent, this level of power should be the bare minimum.

Yunlong also hasn't seen them for months, and their bodies have grown excellently, especially Bai Xue, who has become slightly taller.

"Since I just and you definitely had many questions, let's change the place to talk," Yunlong said while moving his gaze to Gu Yuena.

--- Hidden Training Ground ---

"Okay, I'll explain what happened in the last four months." Yunlong calmly explained everything that happened.

This explanation included his fight against Asura God, which wasn't a secret nor hidden because they must realize the future danger.

In the future, a war might break in Douluo Planet, and his maids must be ready to overcome that moment, which means they have become stronger again.

"Are you four shocked?" Yunlong naturally asked, to which his maids responded with a quiet nod.

"I didn't expect such a thing like a god actually exists..." Zhu Zhuqing muttered in fascination.

Zhu Zhuqing's dream was to become a female titled douluo, but now she realizes her view of strength was meager because a god who has strength above her dream exists.

"Are you afraid, Zhuqing?" Yunlong suddenly asked, which caught Zhu Zhuqing off guard.

However, Zhu Zhuqing composed herself and firmly answered, "No."

"What about you, Ning'er?" Yunlong moved his gaze to Yu Ning'er.

"It's dangerous, but as long as we are on your side, I believe we could overcome it." Yu Ning'er replied with a determined belief.

"We only have to become stronger..." Chu Xiaoyu silently stated, which left Gu Yuena speechless on the side.

"What a bunch of dreamy kids." Gu Yuena commented while crossing her arms.

"What's wrong with being motivated to become stronger?" Xue Nu questioned Gu Yuena, who frowned at her statement.

Gu Yuena swayed her head and indifferently responded, "There is nothing wrong with it, but they have to realize their limit."

Yunlong smirked inside when hearing Gu Yuena's words and shook his head because such a limit literally couldn't be applied to himself and his maids.
