Chapter 45 - Chapter 45: Let Me See!

"No rush."

Gu Yue repeatedly applied eye makeup in front of the mirror.

"Di Tian and the others are still preparing."

"Forcefully summoning the Golden Dragon King back to its place isn't something that can be done on a whim; it's not that simple."

"The Golden Dragon inside me sensed it. Although Tang Wulin does have the aura of the Golden Dragon King on him, it's not much." Na'er asked doubtfully, "His power is way too low. Is the Golden Dragon King really inside him?"

"I saw it with my own eyes." The wails of the Golden Dragon King flashed through her mind, and Gu Yue's tone carried hatred. "The reason you can't sense much is because a God King placed eighteen Seals, locking the Golden Dragon King firmly inside Tang Wulin's body."

"Kill him?" Na'er was concise. When not mentioning Arthur, she was still very decisive.

Gu Yue's hand holding the eyebrow pencil paused, her cold gaze reflected in the mirror. "No need."

"The God King who placed the Seals left a wisp of Divine Sense within them."

"Since the God Realm is gone, this rootless Divine Sense will dissipate sooner or later."

"Although it could be dealt with with a bit of effort, there's no need for that."

"That God King is Tang San. As expected, Tang Wulin is his descendant. We'll just take the Golden Dragon King."

"Killing Tang Wulin would be forcing Tang San into a corner. Who knows if he left any trump cards on the Douluo Continent?"

Someone had already unknowingly possessed the Douluo Plane; Gu Yue didn't believe Tang San hadn't left other trump cards.

His father possessed the plane.

Then what is his mother doing?

"By only taking the Golden Dragon King, Tang San won't fight to the death. We won't have to pay too high a price either." Gu Yue said seriously, "We'll deal with the rest after the Golden Dragon King returns."

"There will be plenty of time to settle the score later."

"Is that so..." Na'er still trusted Gu Yue in this regard, because all the Astonishing Wisdom was with her.

When Na'er was split off, Gu Yue didn't give her any wisdom at all.

Now, of the two, one was a brainless brute, and the other was an emotional idiot.

Having finished discussing official business, it was time for private matters.

"What about Arthur? How do you plan to deal with him?" Na'er began to probe. The talent Arthur displayed today was too strong, and she was afraid Gu Yue would change her mind.

"Arthur?" Gu Yue asked in confusion. "Haven't I said it before? Sooner or later, I'll make him fall in love with me, just like you fell in love with him."

After coming up with such an astonishing plan, Gu Yue never considered giving up. Perhaps she had been wary of Arthur's potential before, but her mindset had completely changed now that she was about to obtain the Golden Dragon King's power.

What bullshit talent? No matter how strong he became in the future, could he be stronger than the fusion of the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings?

A fine general like Arthur was destined not to escape her grasp.

"Tsk, you?" Na'er said dismissively. She stepped forward and casually flipped through Gu Yue's cosmetics.

Then she let out two more "tsks."

Na'er said nothing, yet she seemed to have said everything.

Gu Yue naturally knew what she meant. She turned her head to look at Na'er, who was naturally beautiful and had no trace of makeup on her face.

An uncomfortable feeling welled up in her heart. It was the first time she had felt this emotion, not knowing it was called being broken.

"Isn't it because of you?!" Gu Yue clenched her fists. "I shouldn't have listened to you back then and taken on this appearance."

"It's completely useless!"

"Blame me then? I only gave a suggestion; you didn't have to listen." Na'er didn't hide the smugness on her face.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter anyway. In a while, I'll be able to use 'growth' as an excuse to return to my original appearance."

"Ah!" Na'er's expression changed instantly, looking worried as if she were concerned for Gu Yue. "Won't that be too fast? It wouldn't be good if people get suspicious. Better take it slow."

"Hehe..." Gu Yue just chuckled and didn't speak.

"Hmph." Seeing that it had no effect, Na'er let out a soft huff.

After wandering around Gu Yue's bedroom, she found a diary on the desk.

Na'er picked it up and opened it, her eyes lighting up at the contents.

[Su Qiu Observation Diary]

[1: The frequency of Arthur's glances significantly increases when I show my legs. It has been verified that he likes me wearing revealing clothes.]

[2: Regarding appearance and hairstyle, Arthur seems to like single ponytails—no, twin tails—no, that's hair draped over the shoulders... Okay, he seems to just simply like whatever looks good.]

[3: Arthur likes to meddle in others' business... wait, humans seem to call this doing good deeds?]

[4:...]

Before Na'er could read any further, Gu Yue snatched it back.

"No!" Na'er immediately lunged forward, trying to grab it back. "Just one look, let me have just one more look!"

Repeatedly using spatial Teleportation, Gu Yue dodged all of Na'er's lunges.

Clutching the diary tightly to her chest, Gu Yue took two steps back, her eyes—under the exquisite makeup—filled with wariness. "You're not allowed to look!"

She never expected that Na'er would suddenly rummage through her desk and stumble upon this diary recording Arthur's preferences.

"Just one look!"

Faint dragon roars echoed in Na'er's steps; she was getting serious now, suddenly attacking from the side. "Quick, let me see! Maybe I can even give you some advice!"

Despite her words, her eyes were full of longing for the diary.

"It seems my many indulgences have made you forget who's in charge." Gu Yue slowly floated into the air, going all out. "Only what I give you is yours."

"If I don't give it, you can't take it!"

...Rumble!

Sounds as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was rending continued to ring out.

Xie Xie, Wang Jinxi, and the others ran out of their rooms, rubbing their ringing ears and shouting angrily, "It's the middle of the night! Why aren't you sleeping? What's wrong with you!"

"Eh?"

After realizing the noise was coming from Gu Yue's room, they all went silent, their anger vanishing instantly.

"What... happened?" Zhang Yangzi asked weakly. "What's that noise in Gu Yue's room?"

"It sounds like they're fighting." Tang Wulin rubbed his eyes. He could sense the eruption of Na'er's Golden Dragon power. "Na'er is in there too."

"They couldn't have started fighting, could they?" Remembering how the two had been at odds during the day, Wang Jinxi made a reasonable guess.

"Uh..." Hearing that Na'er was also inside, Xie Xie thought of the equipment that had been smashed that afternoon and suddenly shuddered.

He changed his tune, "Actually, it's not that noisy."

"Yeah... haha."

The few of them scratched their heads, preparing to return to their respective rooms.

"Have you two had enough!"

Arthur, forced out of his meditation, rushed out and kicked Gu Yue's door.

"What time is it? Don't you need to sleep?!"

"Everyone has training tomorrow!"

Only after kicking did Arthur realize it was Gu Yue's room.

The air went silent.

The earth-shattering noises inside the room vanished instantly.

"Brother Art... impressive." Xie Xie and the others lowered their voices, giving Arthur a thumbs up.

"Cough, cough..." Arthur felt a bit guilty now; he had been too impulsive. Gu Yue wouldn't hold a grudge, would she?

He silently returned to his room and hid under the covers for a while. Everything was normal, as if nothing had happened. Arthur breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed he was fine... The next day, Wu Zhangkong looked at the assembled members of Class Zero with some surprise. Why did everyone look so listless, as if they hadn't slept well?

He had been up all night researching the next teaching plan and hadn't returned to the dormitory.
