Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

Luo Yu's blood rushed to his brain at that moment.

Every inch of his skin trembled with fear.

He roared as he opened his eyes.

He saw Gu Yuena sitting in his arms in a unique position, her body radiating a blood-like glow devoid of any bloodiness, instead it was extremely gentle, continuously pouring into Luo Yu's body while her own aura was rapidly deteriorating.

Gu Yuena's face was pale, her cherry lips colorless, but she wore a sweet, contented smile as she looked at him.

"No, don't!"

Seeing this, Luo Yu struggled to rise, refusing the power transfer from Gu Yuena.

He understood all too well at this moment.

Sacrifice!

It was the most domineering sacrifice in the soul beast world: offering one's bones, blood, and soul without reservation, all for the other person.

Perhaps Gu Yuena had planned this all along, knowing that by his own strength he could not completely merge the Origin Power of the Ten Great Dragon Kings and the Spirit of the Plane, so she offered all of herself in exchange for his success.

Luo Yu desperately tried to struggle to his feet but found it impossible.

It seemed as if he had fallen into an absolute domain, completely covered by that gentle red light, unable to move the slightest bit.

He could only watch everything powerlessly.

"Nana, no!"

Luo Yu howled in frenzy, seeing her aura growing weaker and weaker.

From a Demi-God King to a Level One Deity, to a Second-level Deity, and finally to less than an ordinary deity, and still declining, falling to a level less than that of a Titled Douluo...

The fear from the depths of his soul made his spirit tremble.

It felt as if his heart was being twisted, as if thousands of silver needles were piercing it, blood splattering.

Gu Yuena bit her pale lip, her voice trembling as if enduring some heart-piercing pain.

She bore the agony, trying to make her voice as gentle as possible.

"Brother Yu..."

"Sacrifice is irreversible; you should now concentrate on absorbing Nana's Origin. Don't let my efforts be in vain."

Luo Yu's eyes were almost splitting with determination, desperately trying to break free to no avail.

He howled with a mechanical rasp, like a child.

"Don't, Nana! I don't want your sacrifice."

"You can't do this."

Gu Yuena saw Luo Yu like this, and her gradually dimming beautiful purple pupils showed sorrow.

She extended her cold hand, caressing the man's cheek reluctantly.

As if trying to memorize his face.

Gu Yuena pleaded, "Brother Yu, don't be angry; just forgive Nana for taking her own initiative this time, can I be willful just this once?"

"I won't forgive, I can't forgive; you have to stop." Luo Yu, for the first time in many years since coming to Douluo, shed tears.

Mixed with crimson, the tears fell on Gu Yuena's pale cheeks, sliding down...

"Brother Yu, I'm sorry, but if Nana doesn't do this, everyone will die when the Divine Realm arrives. I may not care about others, but you can't die."

"Actually, I lied to you. If it weren't for my mental strength and the help of the Heart of the Dragon God, you wouldn't be able to merge the Origin Power of all the Dragon Kings. Only my sacrifice can help you break through successfully."

"Don't be sad; this is what Nana has planned for a very long time."

Gu Yuena said with distress, "You have borne the burdens for the Dragon Clan; how could Nana bear to see you shouldering all of this alone? Actually, this responsibility should have been mine to bear."

"Do you know how guilty and worried I felt when you fought the Asura God King alone and went to the Divine Realm alone to face the many deities and rescue the Golden Dragon King?"

"I was so afraid that you wouldn't return."

Gu Yuena bit her lip, leaving deep teeth marks.

"I would never forgive myself if that happened."

"Do you know how happy I am that I can help you complete the breakthrough now?"

Gu Yuena's colorless pale face suddenly blossomed into a bright, contented smile, truly happy from the bottom of her heart.

She proudly pursed her crimson lips.

"I, Gu Yuena, am willing to devote my everything to my man."

"To aid him in reaching this world's pinnacle, where the vast sky cannot cover his eyes, the deities cannot sway his will, and he looks freely upon all the beautiful scenery of the world."

Luo Yu's head was splitting with pain, and he was in extreme panic.

His voice trembled, for he could feel how light Gu Yuena was becoming, light as a feather, and her aura had fallen to the level of mortals, still descending.

"Stop now!"

"I beg you, please stop," she pleaded.

"I don't want to conquer the world; I just want you to stay by my side, safe and sound."

Gu Yuena gazed longingly at the man, whispering:

"Brother Yu, there's nothing I'm not willing to give up."

"If Nana merges with you, that means I'll always be by your side, right? Other women would be jealous if they had the chance.

"Don't cry, my man, you're not allowed to cry."

With tearful laughter, Gu Yuena said, "If you cry, you won't look handsome anymore."

Luo Yu sternly and urgently said:

"No."

"You're lying!"

"I know you can't bear to leave me either, so why pretend to be so at peace with it?"

His words peeled back the facade to reveal Gu Yuena's true feelings; the smile on her face receded like the tide, replaced by a profound sense of reluctance.

It was as if she harbored all the world's attachment.

Yes!

How could she possibly bear to leave him?

They hadn't traveled mountains and waters together, they hadn't married yet, they hadn't had children, and there were so many, many more things they hadn't done together.

But she was out of time.

Gu Yuena gathered her fading strength and looked earnestly at the man:

"Brother Yu, can you grant me one last request? Consider it Nana's final wish."

"I promise you, I promise you everything, just please stop," Luo Yu felt so heartbroken and powerless.

He hated himself for not realizing Gu Yuena's plan much sooner.

That led to this outcome.

Despite always priding himself on his caution.

"Brother Yu, promise me to forget about today, forget about Nana."

"No!" Luo Yu firmly refused.

"Don't be like this, how can Nana leave with peace of mind…"

Gu Yuena's body shifted slightly, her eyebrows furrowing.

"Brother Yu, do you remember what Nana promised you a long, long time ago? To give you a grand gift."

"Now Nana has given herself to you, and I'm so happy."

"Cough cough cough."

Gu Yuena began to cough, her breath fading rapidly as if her life was hanging by a thread, her delicate body turning ethereal, almost ready to dissipate.

While Luo Yu, immobilized by the Red Sacrificial Domain, grew more powerful; all eleven of his Dragon King Origin had fused into the Nine-colored light ball, merging rapidly, while ten soul rings arose behind him, and a splendid, pure silver Eleventh Spirit Ring rose solemnly.

It was so blazingly brilliant.

He was the second to break through the Supreme Soul Ring Boundary, something the Divine Kings spent endless ages trying to break but couldn't.

In heaven and earth, only Luo Yu was the exception.

At this moment, as the Red Sacrificial Domain was on the verge of dissipating, and Gu Yuena's life seemed to have reached its end, her cheek slowly rested against the man's chest.

No regrets, no sadness.

A voice echoed in her heart.

Brother Yu, meeting you in this life, Nana is so happy...

"No!"

Luo Yu's aura surged, as if reaching a precedent-setting realm, yet his entire body was ice cold, as if sinking into an eternal ice cave.

In this moment of despair.

"Sigh—" A long, heavy sigh from a woman echoed in the void...
