"What is this?" Blue Buddha Child and Lan Nuer both looked at Xu Ran with surprise.
Is this a drop of blood?
Is it Xu Ran's blood?
What effect could a single drop of blood have?
If it were a mighty ferocious beast, only by devouring a large amount of flesh and blood could it experience a significant evolution.
How pure could the bloodline energy in a single drop of blood be?
"You're not mistaken, this is indeed a drop of my blood essence," Xu Ran said with a smile. His blood essence contained the aura of the Ancestral Dragon and the Kylin. The Dragon Qi and ancestral energy as well as the unique auspicious presence of an Auspicious Beast were the rarest of things between heaven and earth.
No matter the amount, even just a trace, it was all a blessing.
Have you not seen? The ferocious beasts of the Aquipeia Forest would do anything for a trace of auspicious energy from an Auspicious Beast, becoming the groveling dogs of an Auspicious Beast for its protection.
These profound matters involved the energy at the essence of the world, much higher in order than Soul Power.
"Oh."
Blue Buddha Child was still puzzled, but she opened her mouth and swallowed the drop of blood essence Xu Ran had given her.
At first, nothing happened, but soon terrifying energy was burning in her body, a powerful force coursing through her veins.
An inexplicable sensation of both pain and comfort overwhelmed her.
Her body was greedily absorbing the energy from that drop of blood.
Under her inner vision, her blood turned golden, and the drop of fresh blood wandered within her, casting a faint golden hue over her veins, flesh, and bones.
"This..." Lan Nuer exclaimed in surprise, incredibly shocked at the change happening to Blue Buddha Child.
She could clearly see that Blue Buddha Child was undergoing some kind of evolution.
A single drop of blood, yet it had such a powerful effect.
This was truly beyond comprehension.
How strong must Xu Ran's bloodline be?
It was only now that she realized she knew nothing about Xu Ran.
What was Xu Ran's true form?
Xu Ran could easily kill a Deep Demon; he must be an unparalleled soul beast.
"As long as you behave, you'll have these too in the future," Xu Ran said, his lips curving into a smile as he looked at Lan Nuer.
"Yes. Master."
Lan Nuer spoke up as she saw Blue Buddha Child seem to enter a deep meditative state to cultivate.
"When Blue Buddha Child is around, don't call me master. I don't want our relationship to be exposed. Just call me that when the time comes," Xu Ran whispered into Lan Nuer's ear.
"Yes," said Lan Nuer, her cheeks slightly flushed. Despite her open-mindedness, she couldn't help but feel her heart pounding.
"You two stay here for a while. I have some things to deal with on this side. Once I finish, I'll come find you." Xu Ran was now planning to visit Poseissi and also show off to Tang San again.
Tang San, the dastardly scoundrel, was persistent in his designs against him; now it seemed Tang San's strength had increased a notch and he could no longer see clearly who he was.
He must teach Tang San a lesson in being human.
Tang San's mediocre skills would never be a match for him.
In this wide world, the System Missy is the mightiest.
The System Missy is his, Xu Ran's woman; what could Tang San possibly do?
If anything really happened, the System Missy would help him, giving him a colossal cheat.
"Okay. But are you sure you won't make a move on Blue Buddha Child? It seems she has feelings for you?" Lan Nuer asked tentatively. She felt uneasy, wondering what she should do if Blue Buddha Child actively fell in love with Xu Ran.
Blue Buddha Child did not know about Xu Ran's despicable nature, his lecherousness and shamelessness, but she was unaware.
In her eyes, Xu Ran was powerful, kind and gentle, always ready to stand up for justice.
In such a case, it was inevitable that Blue Buddha Child would fall in love with Xu Ran.
If she did, it would be a sin.
"Don't worry, it won't happen, I'm leaving first, see you later," Xu Ran kissed Lan Nuer on the cheek, and then he left.
"Ah. I don't know if my decision is right or not," Lan Nuer gazed absentmindedly after Xu Ran. She didn't know what to do. However, the pain from the death of the Deepsea Devil Whale King had dissipated much.
Xu Ran was interesting, not as rigid as the Deepsea Devil Whale King. If she had met Xu Ran earlier, perhaps...
But now...
She was with Xu Ran out of compulsion.
"If you fail to do so, Xu Ran, don't blame me for being ruthless," Lan Nuer said vexedly. No matter how strong Xu Ran was, even if she couldn't kill him, there was one place that was a weakness for any creature. If she kicked him there with force, Xu Ran would be in extreme pain and might even lose some vital abilities.
...
At this moment, Sea God's Island.
In the High Priest's room.
Poseissi was wearing a red ceremonial robe, her beautiful eyes filled with sorrow.
Thinking of the news that Tang Chen had been killed by Xu Ran, she felt unpleasant. She had not expected Tang Chen to die so miserably, not only him, but the Hao Tian Clan had been annihilated by Xu Ran as well.
At the same time, she was annoyed when she thought of Xu Ran.
She had never met anyone as shameless as Xu Ran, who had dared to touch her in such a way. Even when she was with Tang Chen, she had never had any physical contact with him, not even holding hands.
And now she had been touched by Xu Ran.
Damn it!
Just the thought made Poseissi grind her teeth in anger.
Especially since, for some unknown reason, Xu Ran also controlled the Heart of the Sea God and could even invoke it.
One must know, the Heart of the Sea God belonged to the Sea God, and without the Sea God's approval, even if one obtained the Heart, it would be of no use. The purpose of the Heart of the Sea God being scattered on the Continent was to help the Sea God select its Inheritor.
And now that Xu Ran had received the approval of the Heart of the Sea God, it indicated that the Sea God wished Xu Ran to be his Inheritor.
Despite her utter reluctance, she had to accept this reality.
What if Xu Ran really came to Sea God's Island for the divine selection and became the Sea God? Would she, as the High Priest, have to facilitate the ascendance of such a despicable man as a God?
She could not bear it!
Poseissi's expression was complex as she pondered worriedly.
She leaned against the headboard, her fully matured figure incredibly enticing. The contours of her body were exquisite and mature, like a ripe and juicy peach, sweet and succulent, waiting for a destined person to taste.
Poseissi had grown even more mature over the years on Sea God's Island, her charm eclipsing that of Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong.
"Xu Ran, I don't believe it, the Sea God absolutely couldn't have chosen you as the Inheritor," Poseissi said softly to herself, clenching her fists.
"Who's there!"
Poseissi's expression changed slightly as she suddenly sensed movement outside the door.
Then, she looked blankly towards the door, somewhat in disbelief.
She seemed to have seen Tang Chen.
"Tang Chen, is that you?" Poseissi's voice trembled as she hastily pursued the figure; she could not believe her eyes. Had Tang Chen not died? She was certain that what she had just seen was not an illusion.
Could it be that Tang Hao had not been killed by Xu Ran and had survived?
