**********
—The next morning—
On the bed,
On the large bed, Lev slowly awakened from his slumber, a blissful feeling lingering throughout his body. The moment he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but remember what had happened the previous night, causing a satisfied smile to appear on his face.
He then turned his head and looked at Xiao Wu, who was lying beside him, while Gu Yuena was peacefully sleeping nearby with one hand still holding onto his shirt.
Lev smiled upon seeing them.
After talking with Gu Yuena about his complicated situation, he had been pleasantly surprised by how considerate and understanding she had been. His expression softened as he reached out and gently caressed both Gu Yuena's and Xiao Wu's heads.
However, that simple action was enough to wake the two women.
Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena slowly opened their eyes and sat up, taking a moment to fix themselves before turning toward each other.
Neither said anything at first.
They simply stared at one another.
Soon, however, both turned their attention toward Lev, their expressions completely different as the memories of the previous night returned to their minds.
Gu Yuena looked at Lev with an unmistakable hint of delight. She had experienced something the previous night that had been far more exhilarating than anything she had expected, leaving her with a newfound curiosity toward the world beyond her secluded existence.
Xiao Wu, meanwhile, stared at Lev with a questioning expression.
She still couldn't quite believe that the Silver Dragon King—the supreme sovereign of the Spirit Beasts—had actually spent the night with them.
"S-She'll be your sister in the future."
Lev smiled as he reached over and gently pinched Xiao Wu's cheeks.
He then glanced toward Gu Yuena.
There was no turning back now.
Whatever had happened between them had already happened, and trying to reverse it would only make things more complicated. Although he and Gu Yuena had only known each other for a relatively short time, their relationship had already developed in an unexpected direction.
Perhaps their feelings weren't that deep yet.
But only time would reveal what they would eventually become.
Xiao Wu looked at Lev in surprise before slowly turning toward Gu Yuena.
Gu Yuena was already staring back at her with a serious expression.
"L-Lor..."
Xiao Wu hesitated before correcting herself.
"S-S-Sister... I never would've thought that you would also fall for Lev."
Gu Yuena simply looked at Xiao Wu without much reaction.
She didn't particularly care about Xiao Wu's presence. Although she had felt a little anger and jealousy upon seeing the closeness between Lev and Xiao Wu the previous night, the experience had also opened her eyes to an entirely new world.
At this point, her curiosity toward Lev outweighed everything else.
Seeing Gu Yuena's indifferent reaction, Xiao Wu could only force a bitter smile.
When no response came, she helplessly turned toward Lev, silently asking him what she should do.
Lev could only return her gaze with an awkward smile.
"Well, let's wash up. We still have a long way to go."
Lev decided that the best way to escape the increasingly awkward atmosphere was to change the subject.
Xiao Wu could only follow along.
She climbed out of bed and immediately headed outside toward the pond.
Once Xiao Wu had left, Lev turned his attention toward Gu Yuena.
"How about joining us?"
Gu Yuena opened her eyes and stared at him for a few moments.
Then, without saying a word, she simply nodded.
*****
In the pond,
Having a relaxing and nice time in the morning, Lev and Xiao Wu were already naked in the pond with Gu Yuena having some piece of cloth covering her private parts in front of them. With Xiao Wu around, she would not let anyone see her body that easily except for Lev.
As Xiao Wu was relaxing on the pond, she really could not help but look at Gu Yuena with surprise and adoration. It had been only a month since she knew about her existence and yet here they were now having a nice bath together.
"S-Sister, you're really beautiful. Lev must be so happy to have you." Xiao Wu said while staring at Gu Yuena's body. This was her first time seeing their Lord with such thin pieces of clothes, no, this is actually her second time seeing her if she considers what happened last night.
Hearing Xiao Wu, Gu Yuena looked at her with curiosity as she didn't bother about things like this but considering that her description of beautiful was completely different from human, she then just looked at Lev to see his reaction.
Meanwhile, Lev looked at them with a smile before finally focusing on Gu Yuena. Just like Xiao Wu said, he could only say that her body was very flawless and sexy at the same time, especially now that he could see through her nipples despite it being covered with thin clothes.
Lev kept on looking at it before he got hard in which Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena suddenly looked below the water and they could see his cock standing proudly and pointing toward them.
Seeing such a scene, Xiao Wu became shy all of a sudden while Gu Yuena was curious about what happened. Not before long, Xiao Wu then slowly headed toward Lev while the latter gulped hard after seeing her walking closer to him.
As they were now close to each other, Xiao Wu looked at Gu Yuena first before she reached something below the water. She moved her face closer to Lev and started licking his neck. Gu Yuena, on the other hand, was surprised and curious by her sudden actions as Lev started feeling very pleasant.
Lev did not know Xiao Wu's reason behind doing such a thing, but he did not stop her as it was feeling really good. He then just looked at Gu Yuena and saw her looking at them with great curiosity. He smiles before he moves towards the corner of the pond together with Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu, understanding what was Lev implying, immediately kneeled down and faced his raging cock. She looked at Lev first before kissing the tip of his cock before swallowing it whole afterward.
Gu Yuena started feeling hot about what they were doing as she had already witnessed it last night but she was still curious about what was happening so it drove her to move closer wanting to look at them closely.
Seeing Gu Yuena heading toward their direction, Lev smirked before reaching his hand out and grabbing her toward him. He then just moved his face closer and gave her a small peck on the lips before saying, "It is called a Blowjob."
With that, Gu Yuena, then pinned the word 'Blowjob' in her mind as she looked at Xiao Wu before leaning closer to Lev and starting to kiss him back which Lev received lustfully.
While Lev and Gu Yuena were immersed in kissing each other, Xiao Wu was also doing her best to satisfy Lev with her small mouth seeing her sucking Lev's cock like a lollipop while playing with his balls at the same time.
After a whole five minutes, Gu Yuena suddenly broke the kiss as she looked at Xiao Wu with her eyes glaring with seriousness. She then said or more like an order, "Let me try."
On the other hand, Xiao Wu looked at Gu Yuena in fear before she reluctantly left her position seeing her standing, and gave way for her to do what she wanted. It was still printed on her bones as a spirit beast that she should not defy her words as she was still her Lord.
Seeing this, Lev could not help but shake his head with a sigh, but it was only for a second. He then looked at Xiao Wu shaking before saying, "Xiao'er come here."
Hearing Lev, Xiao Wu then calmed down and moved closer to him. She couldn't help but feel relieved that Lev was there as Gu Yuena's presence really scared her.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuena was now kneeling while looking at Lev's cock with curiosity. She keeps staring at it for a while before recalling Xiao Wu's actions last night and today.
Gu Yuena first held it with her hand from which she felt her body twitch from the heat coming from it. Following that, she then looked at Lev first and Xiao Wu before her mouth suddenly opened and swallowed up Lev's cock.
Lev could not help but open his mouth as he groaned before looking at Gu Yuena giving him a blowjob. Though it was the same blowjob he was getting from her, the sensation was very different. If Xiao Wu was an expert in doing it then Gu Yuena was very amateur but it does not mean that it was not good, in fact, it was the opposite because, unlike Xiao Wu, Gu Yuena kept his cock inside her mouth as her tongue was doing the work feeling it like a snake coiling around his cock.
"Yue'er." Lev muttered before his hand subconsciously reached out to Gu Yuena's head. He caressed it first before he started moving his hips as he started feeling really good about what was happening.
"L-Lev." Xiao Wu could not help calling out as it was her first time seeing Lev reacting like that and even when she or the others did it, he did not have such a reaction. She then looked at Gu Yuena and saw her looking at her. She kind of felt provoked so she doesn't want to be left behind seeing her holding up Lev's face and kissing him.
Meanwhile, Lev was feeling that he was on cloud nine this time. Gu Yuena's godly sucking and Xiao Wu's kissing make him feel like there is nothing else that would make him happy in the world.
With that, Lev, Xiao Wu, and Gu Yuena keep on doing something in the pond before they finally calm down and head back to the house for a breather and to prepare for what they were planning.
**********
—Noon—
Outside the Forest,
After having lunch, Lev and Xiao Wu finally began their journey back toward the Eternal Divine Empire.
However, Gu Yuena had insisted on accompanying them as far as the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest to see them off.
It wasn't exactly the wisest decision for her to leave the core region, but after reassuring Lev that nothing would happen, she eventually persuaded him to allow her to come.
Upon reaching the outskirts of the forest, the group finally stopped.
It was time to say goodbye.
Lev could only wear a wry smile as Gu Yuena continued embracing him tightly, seemingly reluctant to let go.
"Yu'er, you can head back now. I promised that I would visit you often."
Lev gently caressed her head while suppressing the desires that flickered within his eyes.
Bringing Gu Yuena back to the palace wouldn't necessarily be a problem, but it wasn't the right time for her to face the outside world.
Her sudden appearance would inevitably attract far too much attention and create unnecessary trouble.
Gu Yuena understood this as well.
She knew her current situation better than anyone, and following Lev back to the empire simply wasn't a practical option at the moment.
For now, she could only endure the separation.
"Visit me... or I'll visit you myself."
There was a faint hint of displeasure in Gu Yuena's voice as she finally released Lev.
She then turned her gaze toward Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu immediately stiffened under her stare.
She couldn't help but glance toward Lev, silently hoping he would somehow help her.
Contrary to Xiao Wu's expectations, Gu Yuena merely let out a soft scoff before disappearing from the spot.
Xiao Wu blinked in surprise.
Lev simply smiled as he watched the direction in which Gu Yuena had disappeared.
After a moment, he turned toward Xiao Wu.
"Let's go."
Xiao Wu nodded, and the two began their journey back toward the Eternal Divine Empire.
**********
—One hour ago—
Inside a Village,
After continuing their journey for some time, Lev and Xiao Wu stopped at a small village to rest and have something to eat.
Although Lev possessed skills that could allow them to return to the empire almost instantly, he deliberately refrained from using them. There was no need to rush. He wanted to enjoy this peaceful moment with Xiao Wu and experience the journey rather than simply skipping it.
"Lev, why didn't Sister Gu Yuena come with us?"
Xiao Wu asked curiously as she continued eating. She genuinely wanted to understand the reason.
She couldn't think of any reason why Gu Yuena couldn't accompany them, especially since it was already obvious that Gu Yuena had feelings for Lev—and Lev clearly felt the same way.
"Her coming with us would only cause the Gods in the God Realm to immediately descend upon the continent, and that would completely ruin our plans."
Lev calmly explained.
"That's why she can't casually leave the Star Dou Great Forest until the time is right."
He had actually wanted Gu Yuena to come with them as well. However, doing so would put her at unnecessary risk, and Lev wasn't willing to allow that.
Hearing his explanation, Xiao Wu became serious.
She understood his reasoning and didn't ask any further questions.
The two simply continued enjoying their meal in silence, appreciating the rare moment of peace.
After finishing their food, Lev and Xiao Wu left the village and resumed their journey toward the Eternal Divine Empire.
This time, they made sure to arrive at the palace before nightfall.
**********
—Six months later—
Following their return, Lev immediately shifted his attention back toward the affairs of the continent.
There was still a tremendous amount of work to be completed.
For the next six months, Lev devoted himself to settling the remaining matters of the empire, restructuring various powers, establishing new policies, and ensuring that the newly unified continent could function properly.
After six months of relentless effort, the moment finally arrived.
Lev was officially hailed as the first Emperor in history to unite the entire Douluo Continent under a single rule.
During those six months, Lev personally visited numerous Spirit Academies and Clans across the continent, whether they were openly established or hidden from the outside world.
Even the proud Clear Sky Clan was forced to lower their heads after Lev personally demonstrated his overwhelming strength.
No matter how powerful or influential an organization had once been, none could oppose him anymore.
The entire continent had finally been united.
*****
Eternal Divine Palace,
After successfully uniting the mainland, Lev constructed another palace at the very center of the Douluo Continent.
It will be the main Eternal Divine Palace.
It could be considered the most sacred palace ever built on the continent.
Only those personally approved by Lev were permitted to enter its grounds.
This magnificent palace also became Lev's final residence in the continent, where he would live together with his lovers.
Unlike the traditional palaces found throughout the continent, the Eternal Divine Palace was also personally designed by Lev.
He combined the grandeur and elegance of ancient architecture with the convenience and aesthetics of modern design.
The result was a magnificent structure unlike anything the craftsmen of the continent had ever seen.
Even the most renowned architects and craftsmen were left in awe by its construction.
On the other hand, the Eternal Divine Palace that they were using temporarily before has now become the meeting place of the elders of the empire where Ning Fengzhi and the others will conduct their meetings.
*****
Living Room,
After the unification of the continent, Lev no longer needed to personally handle every matter of the empire.
He had already assigned the various responsibilities to capable and trustworthy individuals.
There were still countless things that needed to be managed, but Lev had left the day-to-day affairs to his people. His role was now mainly focused on establishing the empire's long-term plans and determining the direction it would take in the future.
For once, he had some free time.
At the moment, Lev and the others were gathered in the living room, playing chess.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others had become particularly interested in the game because, unlike combat, chess relied entirely on intelligence and strategy.
Since they had no urgent matters to deal with today, everyone decided to take the opportunity to relax and have some fun.
"I lost again..."
Tsunade complained as she stared at the chessboard in disbelief.
Lev couldn't help but laugh at her reaction.
He then glanced toward his other lovers and saw them seriously studying the board, clearly analyzing their next moves.
Not wanting to disturb them, Lev stood up quietly.
"It should be about time for lunch."
He then headed toward the kitchen.
Tsunade, having just lost another game, also stood up and followed after him.
*****
Dining Room,
An hour later, Lev had finished preparing lunch.
He called everyone over, and before long, the entire group was gathered around the dining table, enjoying the dishes he had prepared.
The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxed.
However, while everyone was eating, Bibi Dong suddenly broke the silence.
"Lev, do you really need to fight the Gods?"
The question immediately caught everyone's attention.
Bibi Dong and the others already knew about Lev's circumstances and the reason he needed to confront the Gods. None of them had questioned him about it before because they trusted and loved him.
Bibi Dong, however, was especially familiar with the Gods.
She had once been a follower of one of them.
Because of that, the thought of Lev fighting against the Gods naturally worried her.
"Well, it can't be helped."
Lev calmly answered.
"I can't return to my world unless I complete the mission that was given to me."
He then smiled confidently.
"Don't worry. You already know how strong I am. Those Gods are nothing compared to a True God."
His confidence was genuine.
He knew that everyone at the table was worried about him, and he was grateful for their concern.
"Hmmm... Just tell us if you need help."
Bibi Dong spoke seriously.
Although her strength had decreased slightly after Lev convinced her to stop pursuing the Rakshasa God's test, she was still confident in her ability to help him.
Over the past six months, Lev had personally trained her, and he had also given her an External Soul Bone that possessed an extremely high compatibility with her.
She might not be able to stand alongside Lev as an equal, but she was confident that she could still contribute when the time came.
Lev couldn't help but smile.
"I know."
He reassured them with a gentle expression.
"But there's no need for any of you to worry. If I need help, I'll tell you."
He then gestured toward the food on the table.
"For now, just enjoy the meal. We don't have any urgent work today, so let's use this day to relax."
Hearing this, everyone gradually relaxed and returned their attention to their meal.
For now, there was no need to worry about the Gods.
The peaceful days they had fought so hard to establish were meant to be enjoyed as well.
**********
—Night—
Lev's Bedroom,
Nothing particularly eventful happened throughout the rest of the day. By nightfall, everyone had returned to Lev's bedroom and was resting comfortably.
Unlike the others, however, Lev was still wide awake.
He lay quietly, his eyes fixed on the ceiling as he thought about the next step he needed to take.
His thoughts inevitably turned toward the Gods above.
Lev had already anticipated that they would make their move soon. They might even attempt to contact him before directly descending upon the continent.
But he was prepared.
Although his strength had recently reached a bottleneck—he needed to kill a sufficiently powerful being to continue growing—it was still more than enough for what was coming.
He also understood that the Gods could descend to the continent, but doing so wasn't as simple as it sounded. There were restrictions placed upon them, and even the strongest Gods would need time before they could fully interfere with the mortal world.
Lev closed his eyes for a moment and let out a quiet sigh.
It was finally time.
The time to deal with the Gods was approaching.
No matter what happened, Lev was confident that he would emerge victorious.
**********
—The next morning—
As the sun slowly rose over the horizon, Tsunade and the others began waking up one after another.
However, the first thing they noticed was that Lev was nowhere to be found.
They exchanged confused glances before getting out of bed and heading toward the living room.
The moment they entered, however, they stopped.
Lev was standing there with a beautiful woman beside him.
Tsunade, Zhu Zhuqing, and Dugu Yan were completely stunned.
The woman standing beside Lev was breathtakingly beautiful.
All three couldn't help but admit that she was even more beautiful than their sister, Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong was equally surprised upon seeing a woman who could surpass even her own beauty.
However, after noticing that the woman was standing beside Lev, she immediately understood that something was going on.
Xiao Wu was also surprised, but for an entirely different reason.
She recognized the woman.
And seeing her standing inside their home could only mean one thing.
Lev noticed their presence and turned toward them with a smile.
He then gestured toward the woman beside him.
"This is Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, the overlord of the Star Dou Great Forest... and also one of your sisters."
He formally introduced her.
Over the past six months, Lev had never forgotten to visit Gu Yuena.
He had patiently spent time with her whenever he could, and after six months of effort, he had finally managed to win her heart.
It hadn't been easy in the beginning.
Gu Yuena's initial interest in him had been largely driven by her attraction and curiosity toward his unique existence.
But with enough time and effort, those feelings gradually developed into something deeper.
The moment Lev finished his introduction, Zhu Zhuqing, and Dugu Yan immediately approached Gu Yuena.
"You're so beautiful!"
"How did you become the Silver Dragon King?"
"How long have you known Lev?"
One question after another immediately followed.
Their curiosity quickly became overwhelming as they tried to learn more about their newest sister.
Bibi Dong and Tsunade, meanwhile, simply looked at Gu Yuena before giving her a small nod.
They had already known about her existence beforehand, so they weren't particularly surprised.
Lev had already told them about Gu Yuena and her identity as the Silver Dragon King.
As for her beauty, Bibi Dong and Tsunade could only smile inwardly.
'Only Lev could actually bring home someone like this.'
Xiao Wu, however, remained where she was.
She looked at Lev with a complicated expression.
"Lev... is this...?"
She hesitated, but Lev immediately understood what she was asking.
He smiled.
He knew exactly what was going through Xiao Wu's mind.
After gathering everyone together, Lev began explaining the entire situation to them, including how he had met Gu Yuena and what they had discussed regarding the Gods.
After listening for a while, Bibi Dong was the first to speak.
"Shouldn't we prepare something?"
She already knew what was coming and therefore wasn't particularly surprised by the impending danger.
"Don't bother."
Lev shook his head.
"Once the Gods learn that the Silver Dragon King is still alive, they'll probably send someone to deal with her. Even the God Kings themselves may eventually descend to the continent."
He paused.
"But it will still take time."
"What should we do, then?"
Bibi Dong asked again, unable to simply sit back and do nothing.
Lev looked at her before turning his gaze toward Gu Yuena.
"Actually, you don't have to worry."
His tone was firm.
"You can stay here in the palace and leave the rest to me and Gu Yuena."
He wasn't underestimating them.
He was simply stating the truth.
With their current strength, confronting the Gods would be little more than suicide.
And even if they somehow had the strength to participate, Lev would never allow it.
The thought of seeing the women he loved getting hurt was something he couldn't accept.
"Is there anything we can do to help?"
Bibi Dong asked again.
She already knew that their current strength was pitiful compared to the Gods, but that didn't mean she was willing to simply stand aside.
"Truth be told, only Gu Yuena and I can actually fight against the Gods."
Lev shook his head.
He was grateful that they wanted to help, but allowing them to participate would only put them in unnecessary danger and potentially hold them back.
The room became silent.
Bibi Dong and the others could only lower their heads, frustrated by their own weakness.
They hated the feeling of being unable to help the person they loved.
Seeing their reactions, Lev stood up and walked toward them.
One by one, he gently patted their heads.
"We still have time."
His voice was calm but encouraging.
"From now on, I'll train you even harder. Your goal during this period is to increase your spirit power as much as possible."
The words immediately changed their expressions.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others exchanged glances.
Then, determination began burning in their eyes.
They wanted to help Lev.
And now they had a clear goal.
Their greatest enemy wasn't the Gods.
It was time.
From that day onward, Lev's special training began.
While Lev focused on strengthening the women around him, Gu Yuena also began preparing for the coming war.
She traveled across the continent, searching for the remaining powerful spirit beasts and gathering them under her banner.
The Spirit Beast army was beginning to take shape.
The continent had entered a race against time.
And somewhere far above the mortal world, the Gods were slowly turning their attention toward the Douluo Continent.
