--- Chapter 363 ---
Looking at the somewhat nervous silver-haired girl before him, Han Yuan couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly, a very small reaction that went unnoticed by the others.
After all, they were all focused on the adorable human girl who had just arrived, to the extent that even the sleeping Auspicious Beast got woken up by her presence.
What they didn't realize was that this charming little girl was actually the clone of their lord, Silver Dragon King. Na'er successfully deceived them because she appeared human in almost every aspect, from her aura to her blood, vitality, and even her luck.
Even when Han Yuan used the Eyes of Truth to inspect Na'er, the result surprised him.
The Silver Dragon King's meticulous creation of Na'er concealed any trace of her true origins.
All he uncovered was a long but detailed background depicting a helpless human girl who had lost her life due to severe malnutrition, but was met and granted a second chance by a mysterious divine expert, altering her fate.
Na'er was truly a human girl, but deep within her soul was a remnant of a Dragon's Soul, living in a Mysterious Silver Spear, which was the basis for her Soul Dragon Spear martial soul.
There was no mention of the Silver Dragon King, the Silver Dragon Spear, or even the fact that she was a human clone implanted with 30% of the Silver Dragon King's essence powers, whose mission was to learn from and infiltrate human society.
Instead, there was only a narrative of Na'er, a girl who seemed to have experienced a remarkable encounter, lacking love and affection.
It was just a Heroine's Template!
Unfortunately for the Silver Dragon King, Han Yuan had read the goddamn book, the third series of the Douluo Dalu novels, known as the Legend of the Dragon King.
His knowledge of the story's plot provided him with a powerful advantage—a cheat of sorts! While the Silver Dragon King was playing chess, Han Yuan was playing chess with an AI assistant.
Han Yuan speculated that Na'er's appearance was a strategy to get closer to him and gain his affection, allowing the Silver Dragon King to benefit in the end.
The Silver Dragon King thought she had secured a victory, but in reality, Na'er would replicate that of Tang Wulin's story in the Legend of the Dragon King, but Han Yuan is the protagonist instead.
Nevertheless, since this wise Silver Dragon King really likes to dig a hole for herself, Han Yuan was more than happy to push her into it. He was a kind person, after all.
Aih, the Douluo Continent wasn't being called the Love Continent for no reason!
The Love-Brained Dragon King was undoubtedly a Canon Event for Silver Dragon King. And this realization left Han Yuan torn between laughter and frustration.
He composed himself and remarked casually, "Soul Dragon Spear? So it's not a beast martial soul."
He then looked at Di Tian, "You didn't plan on letting this girl join the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, did you?"
Di Tian wore a helpless expression. "Well, that's where I hit a wall."
"Na'er possesses remarkable talent, but the Ten Thousand Beast Sect won't teach her much."
"So, I was considering letting her learn under your guidance or at least join your academy."
"Who do you think I am? Your offhand manager?" Han Yuan scoffed at Di Tian, giving him a deep look. "But fine... Girl, come here. Let me take a closer look at you first."
Di Tian sighed in relief immediately. No one knew that Na'er was a clone of the lord, Silver Dragon King. Only he, the Beast God, was aware of this fact.
"Na'er, listen to Han Yuan. Although he was a bit eccentric, he's a master in his field, and even I have to admit that he has an excellent grasp of the Spirit Master System," Di Tian said, gently nudging Na'er forward.
Na'er stumbled on her steps, and Han Yuan caught her before she could fall, causing her to tremble and blush slightly.
"Hey, Di Tian, shouldn't you be more gentle with a little girl like her?" Di Yating shouted. "Do you want me to beat you up?"
Di Tian broke into a cold sweat, "Sister, Na'er is just nervous. I didn't push her that hard."
"Oh, shut up! Do you think I'm blind?" Di Yating snorted in response.
Even the kind and motherly Bi Ji found Di Tian's actions wrong, though she didn't speak up. Yet, her slight frown showed her disapproval.
"Bad Uncle! Bad Black Uncle!" Di Nayuan exclaimed childishly.
"..." Di Tian's calm demeanor almost faltered.
'Why am I even here, just to suffer...'
Meanwhile, Han Yuan had already observed Na'er thoroughly. He noticed that her soul was intertwined with a fragment of the Silver Dragon King's soul, forming a mutual symbiosis. As the human soul grew, the dragon's soul would grow alongside it, eventually merging into one.
Yet, at that point, it wouldn't just be a matter of soul merging, but also bloodline and origins.
The martial soul Na'er initially inherited was most likely a spear, serving as a container for the dragon's soul, kind of like a Coiling Dragon Staff from Qiangu Family, twenty thousand years later.
However, unlike the Qiangu Family's Coiling Dragon Staff that contained the soul of Evil-Breaking Dragon, the Soul Dragon Spear contained a wisp of Silver Dragon King's soul.
In this regard, the Soul Dragon Spear is a bit stronger. Honestly, it was a clever method to graft a dragon's soul onto others without any backlash, effectively creating a powerful clone.
Too bad Silver Dragon King didn't maintain 'true' absoluteness like Han Yuan did with Beta.
Creating multiple personalities is just asking for problems.
Then, Han Yuan's thoughts also wandered off track. 'Again, talking about the Coiling Dragon Staff, there are two owners of this martial soul in this era.'
'The Thousand Jun/Fifteen Ton (Qian Jun) Douluo.'
'And Demon Suppressing (Xiang Mo) Douluo.'
'Both are the Super Douluo Elders of Spirit Hall's Worship Hall. However, from the look of it, neither of them has awakened Evil-Breaking Dragon's soul in their Coiling Dragon Staff and focused on different paths.'
'Hmm, should I tell Qian Renxue about this?' While Han Yuan was thinking about this, Na'er finally stood on her own and blushed shyly.
She doesn't know why, but something about Han Yuan makes her feel warm and comfortable.
The reason behind this isn't just because Han Yuan possessed immense luck from two worlds that benefits all creations, but also due to his mastery over the soul.
Don't forget that Han Yuan was the Master of Souls. Silver Dragon King's soul manipulation over Na'er, like Han Yuan, is like child's play to him.
At the end of the day, the soul of the human girl has perished and gone to the afterworld, where Han Yuan's domain lies. Silver Dragon King pulled the little girl back to the world of the living, but the dead soul would always remember the calm, soothing end.
Han Yuan gazed at Na'er and said, "Innate Full Spirit Power, then I will give you a welcome gift for joining my Dao Academy."
"A Set of Cultivation Techniques I made myself, which involved the core meditation technique, body refining technique, movement technique, and spiritual cultivation techniques."
"An artificial Spirit Soul made with True Dragon's essence blood and origins, which suits your Soul Dragon Spear martial soul."
"And lastly, a divine artifact."
BOOM!
While Na'er doesn't know the value of these welcome gifts, Di Tian and others felt a booming noise in their fragile hearts when they heard Han Yuan's grand words.
Even Di Tian himself only has one, which is Dragon God's Claw, and he cherished it very much, so he would only use it in a dire moment.
As for Bi Ji, Di Yating, and Di Nayuan, they don't even have a single Divine Artifact.
You can't call this being generous anymore.
It's basically just throwing treasures to others!
Meanwhile, deep under the Lake of Life, the Silver Dragon King laughed wickedly. "Kukuku, human, you couldn't possibly know that Na'er was the result of my great wisdom."
"She would become your lovely little sister, and eventually your lover, but the one who would have the last laugh would be me, Silver Dragon King!"
"You think it's your beloved sister, but it's actually me, Gu Yuena!"
The Silver Dragon King harrumphed, "Hmph, this is what happens when you dare to look down on the majesty of Dragon God…"
"Haha! Hahaha~!"
