Chapter 454: Chapter 452: No Wonder Xu Ran Is So Strong_1
"I am willing to wait, even if it's for a thousand or ten thousand years, even through the changes of the seas and fields, the passage of time. In my heart, you will always be the irreplaceable one," Xu Ran said passionately. The routines for wooing a girl are universally applicable, and even though Xu Ran had almost exhausted these words, each time he spoke them, they stirred different emotions.
"Thank you, Xu Ran. Meeting you is the greatest fortune of my life," Gu Yuena said softly. Listening to Xu Ran's sincere declaration of love, she felt her heart nearly melt.
Were it not for Xu Ran, she would still be in a critically injured state right now. Despite having grand ambitions, the realization of becoming the Dragon God was practically hopeless. And even if by some fluke she became the Dragon God, she would have been suppressed by the Divine Realm Gods again.
But after meeting Xu Ran, everything was different; with Xu Ran by her side, she hardly needed to worry about anything. It was as though Xu Ran was a towering figure; as long as he was present, she could feel at ease, and all pressures would vanish.
"You are the same in my heart," Xu Ran said with a light laugh as he kissed Gu Yuena's snowy white porcelain-like cheek. The Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, with her unparalleled beauty, possessed an ethereal and noble charm that no other woman could match.
Gods, compared to ordinary humans, are like an evolved form, and their bodies undergo some changes as well.
The most obvious being that goddesses do not need to relieve themselves.
"Alright, you should go. Come see me tomorrow. I've absorbed a lot of energy today and need to digest it properly, otherwise, your efforts will have been wasted," Gu Yuena said as she stood up from Xu Ran's body, speaking with a flustered tone.
Looking at Xu Ran's affectionate and treasured gaze, his handsome and bright face, and his occasionally mischievous palm, she worried that if Xu Ran stayed any longer, she would not be able to control herself.
Although she was a pure and chaste maiden, resisting the attraction of Xu Ran's Ancestral Dragon to her Silver Dragon King, and combating Xu Ran's sweet nothings, really left her at her wits' end.
If it weren't for her strong self-control over the years forcefully suppressing her inner desires, she probably would have taken the initiative by now.
"Okay, see you tomorrow then," Xu Ran said, caressing Gu Yuena's delicate cheek, quickly picking up on her thoughts. However, since Gu Yuena was not willing to give herself to him right now, he would not make things too difficult for her.
Emotions can't be forced; it's best to let them develop naturally.
After all, Gu Yuena is right here; she can't run away.
Moreover,, it should be Gu Yuena who's anxious; with so many women around him, Gu Yuena will have to join the competition for his favor sooner or later. He greatly looks forward to it, as Gu Yuena, Qian Renxue, and Bi Bidong all have strong personalities. Perhaps there will be quite the drama when the time comes.
"Whew." Gu Yuena let out a sigh of relief as Xu Ran left, just sitting in Xu Ran's presence had made her break out in a fine sweat, nervous to death. She verbally rejected him, yet internally she was always restraining herself.
"Shameless, have you really got me all figured out?" Gu Yuena cursed softly, yet her beautiful eyes betrayed a myriad of affection. If Xu Ran were alone, she would have already given in to him. But Xu Ran, a shameless and lascivious man who had so many women outside, not to mention all the beautiful spirit beasts from the Aquipeia Forest that Xu Ran had swept through.
Xu Ran was naturally flirtatious; his words were genuine, especially the sweet words he told the girls. If she believed them, she wouldn't be the Silver Dragon King.
"But why do I like to hear them, even when I know they're false?" Gu Yuena sighed. Even though she felt that what Xu Ran said wasn't genuine, she still liked to listen to him declaring his love for her.
And the moment she saw Xu Ran's gleeful gaze, her first reaction was happiness.
What was happening to her?
...
Outside the Lake of Life.
Bai Chenxiang, with her pigtails tied up, was wearing a set of blue shorts and short-sleeved top, revealing her snow-white belly and her slender, incredibly beautiful long legs, full of the boundless energy of youth.
At this moment, Bai Chenxiang, following Zi Ji's lead, was walking step by step toward the Lake of Life, and everything she saw along the way completely dumbfounded her.
The soul beasts she encountered, more terrifying and powerful than she had imagined, dozens of meters away, and the most inner part of the Aquipeia Forest, considered forbidden by Soul Masters—all these things were shattering Bai Chenxiang's understanding.
What made her even more incredulous was Xu Ran's identity. Could Xu Ran actually be an immensely powerful ferocious beast? Could it be that Xu Ran had undergone a Soul Beast Transformation? But...
"Sister Zi Ji, where did Xu Ran go?" Bai Chenxiang's hand was held by Zi Ji as they walked, encountering countless powerful soul beasts along the way. These soul beasts seemed to fear Zi Ji quite a bit, which made Bai Chenxiang more curious about and trusting of Zi Ji.
"Lord Xu Ran is busy at the moment, but I expect he will be out shortly," Zi Ji said with a wicked smile, obviously aware that Xu Ran, who couldn't stay idle, had gone to find Gu Yuena.
In the Aquipeia Forest, Gu Yuena was the most beautiful woman. As the Silver Dragon King, Xu Ran, with his lust, would definitely not let her go.
"Oh, so Xu Ran really is a soul beast?" Bai Chenxiang asked in a low voice. She wasn't sure what to think now, having assumed that Xu Ran was just very powerful. She hadn't imagined that Xu Ran might also have such a terrifying identity. If Xu Ran was so powerful, he might be a hundred-thousand-year soul beast that had undergone Transformation. If Xu Ran was a soul beast, and she was Xu Ran's woman, did that mean she would have to stay with him in the Aquipeia Forest from now on?
"Xu Ran is a soul beast, but he is also human, though I would say his characteristics are more human," Zi Ji said softly. In fact, she didn't know what Xu Ran's exact identity was, but it didn't matter; Xu Ran was Xu Ran, unique in his own right.
"Ah? There are such people?" Bai Chenxiang's mouth formed an 'O' in surprise.
"Xu Ran isn't a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, his body can switch between human and soul beast at any time. So, you could say he is both human and soul beast. You could also say he is neither human nor soul beast," Zi Ji analyzed, sharing her understanding of Xu Ran.
After hearing Zi Ji's explanation, Bai Chenxiang became even more confused, but she still nodded as if she understood. However, knowing that Xu Ran was still human, she breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she was not repulsed by Xu Ran's powerful identity in the soul beast world, but rather felt some pride.
Xu Ran was Xu Ran, not only overwhelmingly powerful in the human world, respected even by her grandfather, but also formidable in the soul beast world, with even a powerful soul beast capable of Transforming into a human like Zi Ji showing such reverence for Xu Ran.
"Sister Zi Ji, are you a hundred-thousand-year soul beast? I've heard that hundred-thousand-year soul beasts can Transform into humans," Bai Chenxiang asked curiously, pulling on Zi Ji's hand. She could tell that the woman in front of her had an extraordinary relationship with Xu Ran.
"Sort of. My 'Cultivation Level' is higher than that of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast—more than two hundred thousand years," Zi Ji said, ready to show this naive girl where she stood.
Perhaps in the outside world, among ordinary Soul Masters, the concept of a soul beast with a 'Cultivation Level' of over two hundred thousand years did not exist.
"Ah? That strong?" Bai Chenxiang was stupefied, her delicate body trembling slightly, hardly believing her ears. Could this beautiful woman in front of her really be a soul beast over two hundred thousand years old?
My God. Are there really such terrifying soul beasts in this world?
In an instant, Bai Chenxiang felt she had been living in blissful ignorance.
If Zi Ji was this strong, then wasn't Xu Ran an even more powerful soul beast? Quickly, Bai Chenxiang realized this possibility.
"No wonder Xu Ran is so strong." Bai Chenxiang choked back a lump in her throat, trembling at the thought, her mind recalling that terrifying night when her bones almost broke while Xu Ran seemed unfazed.
Lifespan for soul beasts is long, their bodies immense, naturally making them far more fearsome than ordinary humans. If Xu Ran were to give his all, even releasing his true form, she really would neither be able to live nor die at will.
