Chapter 520 - The Thorn Dragon’s Approval
Chapter 520 – The Thorn Dragon’s Approval
“Senior, I’m afraid this won’t do. I can’t let you follow me. You should know the rules between soul beasts and us humans. If you want to leave this place, I’m afraid you can only do so after you transform into a Spirit Soul. Although I can’t have one myself, this brother of mine can. His bloodline was awakened with my help, and I should be able to continue helping him purify his bloodline. The White Dragon King bloodline is also a top-notch dragon bloodline, and he excels at speed, so he’s actually more suited for you.”
The others present could only hear what Lan Xuanyu said to the Thorn Dragon, but they couldn’t hear what the Thorn Dragon told him through its thoughts. But they could guess something from its expression.
The Spirit Pagoda deacon was completely speechless at this moment. He knew that he had no more chance even without asking. These people from Shrek Academy were truly annoying!
Liu Feng’s eyes were filled with splendor. He had naturally seen the Thorn Dragon display its powerful abilities just now. The White Dragon King had spatial abilities, but because his bloodline wasn’t pure enough and his cultivation wasn’t strong enough, as he was just still at the beginning. If he could have this Thorn Dragon as his Spirit Soul, he wouldn’t have to worry about having his fifth, sixth, and seventh ring in the future! Three ten thousand-year level soul rings were set in stone, and if the soul skills brought along were as strong as the one it just displayed, there was no doubt that he would have sufficient foundation to get into the Inner Court.
Looking at Lan Xuanyu, then at Liu Feng, Thorn Dragon sent another thought to Lan Xuanyu. “Master, will your friend always be by your side?”
Lan Xuanyu said without hesitation, “Although I can’t be sure of the future, I reckon that we won’t be apart for at least ten years. Oh right, I have a question for you. Look, this seems to be a fruit produced here called the Emperor Fruit. I heard that it can purify one’s bloodline. What’s the use of eating something like this for someone like Frenzie ? Also, will it be useful if I eat it myself?”
As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu took out the string of Emperor Fruits he got from Lan Hudie and waved it in front of the Thorn Dragon.
The thorny dragon’s eyes went blank and its expression became exaggerated. It opened its mouth slowly and drooled. Then, its huge body actually started trembling.
“Emperor Fruit? Heavens! Where did you get it? Where did you get it?”
Lan Xuanyu was startled but also delighted. From the Thorn Dragon’s expression, he could tell that this Emperor Fruit was an extraordinary existence. At the same time, it also meant that what Lan Hudie said might be true.
“I used a precious item to exchange for it.” He said with a calm face.
The Thorn Dragon suddenly nodded. “It’s useful, very useful. Give it to me, no, give it to him. I’m willing to be his partner. As long as you give him three Emperor Fruits, I’m willing to do anything.” It sent its thoughts over quickly and jumped to Liu Feng’s side. It wanted to rub its big head against Liu Feng, but it immediately realized the problem with its thorns. It could only look at Liu Feng and nod repeatedly.
Lan Xuanyu quickly put away the fruits and nodded at Liu Feng.
There was no need for him to signal and the Thorn Dragon had already transmitted its thoughts over, indicating that it was willing to become Liu Feng’s Spirit Soul. However, it also raised two conditions for Liu Feng. One was to eat three Emperor Fruits and the other was to follow Lan Xuanyu for at least ten years and be nourished by Lan Xuanyu’s aura.
The Spirit Pagoda’s deacon was at a loss for words, but he was an adult after all. While he was furious and unwilling, he also noticed Lan Xuanyu.
That Thorn Dragon was so strong, but it actually revealed such a humble side in front of this Shrek Academy youth. What did this mean? It meant that this Shrek Academy student had extraordinary influence.
Who exactly was he?
“I’m sorry, uncle.” Lan Xuanyu smiled at the Spirit Pagoda’s deacon.
The Spirit Pagoda deacon scoffed in anger and looked at the Thorn Dragon unwillingly. Seeing the fawning look in its eyes as it looked at Lan Xuanyu, he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
The moment he left, the first years cheered. Liu Feng pursed his lips tightly and gave Lan Xuanyu a thumbs up.
This was a Spirit Soul that was snatched by force! And it was such a powerful thirty thousand-year Thorn Dragon. Everyone could tell that the reason why the Thorn Dragon chose Liu Feng was because of Lan Xuanyu. Although they didn’t know why soul beasts would approve of Lan Xuanyu, the truth was right before their eyes. If they could snatch it once, would they be able to snatch it a second time?
Lan Xuanyu looked at the Thorn Dragon and said, “Senior, are you going back with Frenzie first? Prepare for the fusion ceremony?”
The thorny dragon shook its head repeatedly and sent a thought over, “No, no, I want to follow Master. I will be wherever you are. There’s no rush to hold the ceremony. Also, I need to go back first. You’re here, I have to report such a big matter to Beast God. Otherwise, I would be letting down Beast God for protecting me for so many years.”
As it spoke, it suddenly turned and ran. Silver light flickered again, and after a few times, it disappeared.
Liu Feng was startled at first, but the Thorn Dragon’s thoughts quickly came to him. “I’ll come back to find you.”
“It said it will look for me again. I don’t know where it went,” Liu Feng said to Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “It shouldn’t be a big deal. Congratulations, Frenzie.”
Liu Feng smiled, revealing a rare bright smile. “I won’t say thanks to my brother.”
Lan Xuanyu patted him on the shoulder and didn’t tell the people around him what the Thorn Dragon said to him. ‘Is he going to inform the Beast God Di Tian? Could it be that my bloodline is really the Dragon God’s bloodline? But it seemed to be talking about the Golden Dragon King bloodline just now. Was it about my golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass?’
‘Even if my bloodline has a trace of the Dragon God bloodline, it should be more complicated since it was born from a Blue Silver Grass. But it shouldn’t be a bad thing to let Beast God know.’
The harvest of their fifth soul beast caused everyone’s spirits to lift up once again, especially Liu Feng. He didn’t choose to return right away and decided to continue following his teammates to see which soul beasts they would encounter.
Liu Feng wasn’t surprised by Lan Xuanyu’s attraction power to dragon-type soul beasts. After all, where did his White Dragon King bloodline come from ? The golden and silver scales that appeared on Lan Xuanyu’s body seemed to be related to the dragon race. His bloodline definitely belonged to a True Dragon and was of a very high level.
“Xuanyu, you can’t favor one over the other. We also want a strong Spirit Soul too,” Lan Mengqin whispered to Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu smiled bitterly. “That depends on your luck. However, the soul beasts living here don’t seem to be very good at ice and snow. Due to the environment, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to find one suitable for you and Qianqiu.”
Dong Qianqiu, who had been quietly following by the side, shook her head and replied, “I don’t need a Spirit Soul.”
Lan Xuanyu looked at her in surprise. Others might think that she was being humble, but Lan Xuanyu knew that it was possible for a soul master to not need a Spirit Soul.
The group continued to search. This area of the Reclining Garden was indeed very big, and they encountered some soul masters from other places along the way. When a single soul master encountered so many of them, they would usually make a detour and not get close. They also encountered some soul beasts. However, some avoided them when they saw them from afar, while others didn’t find any suitable soul master.
After another two hours, they only obtained the approval of one more soul beast. There were over 30 people in the class and six soul beasts had acknowledged them.
It had been four hours since they entered this place. Everyone moved very quickly as they searched. Lan Xuanyu announced that they would rest for a while and rest on the spot. They would continue searching after resting for half an hour.
