Chapter 9: Celestial Exchange: Bonds of Elemental Mastery
In the heart of Douluo Dalu, where ancestral bonds and celestial knowledge converged, the Blue Silver Grass Emperor affectionately addressed Gu Yuena, his venerable ancestor, as the Silver Dragon King. Gu Yuena, sensing the vitality pulsating within the Emperor, sought to borrow a fragment to aid in her recovery.
**Silver Dragon King:** "Your vitality is truly remarkable, Silver Dragon King. May I borrow a fragment to hasten my own healing?"
The Blue Silver Grass Emperor, ever facetious, responded with a mock complaint, addressing Gu Yuena by her legendary title.
**Blue Silver Grass Emperor:** "Ah, the mighty Silver Dragon King, reduced to borrowing vitality from a mere grass. How the mighty have fallen. I'm being bullied by my esteemed ancestor!"
Gu Yuena, pride lightly wounded, felt an unspoken obligation to repay the favor.
**Silver Dragon King:** "Very well. I owe a debt to this grass. I cannot let pride stand in the way. Name your terms, and I shall repay what is owed."
**Blue Silver Grass Emperor:** "Since you're offering, Silver Dragon King, how about teaching me all the elemental laws you've mastered? It seems fitting for an ancestor, especially one of dragon lineage, to pass down knowledge to her humble descendant."
Gu Yuena, despite her pride, agreed to impart her knowledge.
**Silver Dragon King:** "I shall teach you all the elemental laws I have mastered. But remember, pride comes before a fall."
