Chapter 1769: Chapter 1769: Sacrifice?

Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena’s perception of his bloodline was the strongest. After all, they originally came from the Dragon God. They did not wait, nor did they have any illusions, because once Lan Xuanyu acted, it would inevitably become an irreversible situation. Hence, they flew out, heading toward Lan Xuanyu.

Back when Lan Xuanyu embarked on the path of becoming the Dragon God, the couple had already decided that if their son encountered any problem in the process of achieving this, they would rather sacrifice themselves to complete his achievement.

The Dragon God’s death back in the day was not a true death. Part of the power attached to the Dragon God’s Core and the Dragon God’s Skeleton established the Dragon Realm, creating the Dragon God’s graveyard for the dead Dragon Clan. This allowed the Dragon Clan’s aura to be preserved, preparing for future revival.

The other part, belonging to the Dragon God’s own emotions and essence, was split into the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King.

So, the true Dragon God still yearned for the power from these separations.

Now the Dragon Realm, the Dragon God’s Core, including the Ascending Dragon Pillar, had all been devoured by Lan Xuanyu. So, the only remaining part was them, the pair of Gold and Silver Dragon Kings.

Back then, if Gu Yuena had the heart to devour Tang Wulin, there likely wouldn’t have been a Lan Xuanyu, but she had deeply fallen in love with Tang Wulin, who bore the Golden Dragon King’s bloodline. This was why there was once a Legend of the Dragon King and why there is Xuanyu now.

They understood that the most direct way to help Lan Xuanyu become the Dragon God was for him to devour the two of them, returning all of the Dragon God’s power. Their only concern was, whether Lan Xuanyu could emotionally bear it once the devouring was completed, and that was why there was that special instruction for Bai Xiuxiu. As long as Bai Xiuxiu was around, Lan Xuanyu would at least have a mental anchor when he awoke.

As for sacrificing their lives for their son, it wasn’t a difficult decision for them.

Deep down, both felt a sense of guilt toward their son. They froze for thousands of years, and their son, who practically followed them into this ice age, lacked their affection as a child, enduring the oppression and torment brought by the bloodline. Day by day, up until now, Lan Xuanyu endured pressures even more than Tang Wulin once did.

They had long decided that under no circumstances would they let their son suffer more. Now that the Crimson God King was dead, as long as their son could wake up, inheriting the God King position of the Dragon God, everything would be settled.

Lan Xuanyu also sensed their approach. His gaze, which was initially fixed on the direction of Sky Dragon Planet, returned to focus on these two flying toward him.

The red light in his eyes seemed to retract slightly, yet the aura around him wavered with instability.

Just as Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena imagined, sharing the same bloodline made him crave their blood most intensely. For Lan Xuanyu, if achieving the Dragon God was like completing a complex puzzle, the largest two pieces were these two. They were his parents, also the most precious power left behind by the Dragon God.

Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance. They didn’t need to say more, just tighten their grip on each other’s hands.

Why was Tang Wulin eager to propose to Gu Yuena back on Douluo Planet? Why had they been inseparable during this time? Because they had long foreseen the possibility of this day arriving and had resolved to do whatever it takes to help their son make the final breakthrough. This was because only then could their son live on.

The Dragon God’s bloodline leads to either achieving the Dragon God or death. As parents, their sole wish was for their son to live better!

A faint smile appeared on their faces, Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena suddenly both smiled.

Throughout their lives, they had experienced far too much. Yet, at last, at this point in their lives, they still had their moments of happiness that belonged to them. All of it echoed through their minds like drifting clouds in the past.

They had no regrets left.

Gu Yuena opened her arms to Lan Xuanyu, the gentle aura of the Silver Dragon King emanating from her, enveloping toward Lan Xuanyu.

As soon as this aura touched Lan Xuanyu, his body trembled slightly. There was no need for any manipulation; an incredibly strong suction force burst out from him, forcibly drawing Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena toward him.

Tang Wulin also extended his hand, golden ripples similarly covering Lan Xuanyu. Deep, low dragon roars began to erupt from their bodies, gold and silver enveloping and merging silently, causing the nine-colored light on Lan Xuanyu to start converging inward, and even the blood-red in his eyes seemed to become a little clearer.

Under the effect of that irresistible suction force, Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin’s bodies quickly arrived in front of Lan Xuanyu. The Dragon God Spear in Lan Xuanyu’s hand disappeared instantly, and he lifted both hands lightning-fast, gripping Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin’s shoulders respectively.

Terrifying suction force exploded from his hands, frantically absorbing the energy from his parents’ bodies.

Although the individual energies of Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena were not as immense as that of the Crimson God King, this was the purest Dragon God’s bloodline! It was far more effective for him than the Crimson God King’s mixed energy. Behind Lan Xuanyu, a giant nine-colored dragon shadow reappeared, and his aura began stabilizing instantly.

Enduring the mighty suction, neither Tang Wulin nor Gu Yuena struggled at all. They just watched their son with smiles on their faces, occasionally turning their heads slightly to gaze at each other.

In the distance, Bai Xiuxiu covered her mouth, sobbing uncontrollably. She was unable to stop this, nor could she even try. Yet, in this moment, her internal sorrow reached its peak. She never imagined that after such difficulty in getting Xuanyu back, this would be the outcome!

Even if Xuanyu could truly awaken after devouring his parents, how would he accept all this? She knew too well how Xuanyu felt about his parents. Back then, in order to save his mother, he forced himself not to break down. If not for the insufficiency of his own strength, he would have rushed into the magma himself long ago.

That time it was just Teacher Nana, now including Uncle Tang, and they both died at his own hands. He would surely go mad!

Lan Xuanyu’s hands gripping Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin’s shoulders grew tighter, even to the point that claws pierced their skin. The horrifying swallowing force frantically absorbed their strength, crazily replenishing the nutrients he needed.

Yet, whether it was Tang Wulin or Gu Yuena, no trace of pain showed on their faces. They simply looked at their son, silently feeling the formation of the Dragon God’s power within him.

"Xuanyu, take care, be well. Mommy will always love you," Gu Yuena mouthed silently to him.

"Son, be strong. Being able to fulfill you is our happiness. We both love you," Tang Wulin also muttered silently in his heart to his son.

For some reason, in that moment, he suddenly recalled everything his father Sea God Tang San had done for him thousands of years ago. Even facing the nearly unbeatable Abyss Sage King at the end, his father’s final measures eventually resolved the opponent. Compared to his father, he was simply far inferior!

Tang Wulin’s consciousness began to blur as they continuously got devoured, both he and Gu Yuena growing weaker, even feeling as though their bodies might become ethereal.
