Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 500: Only Because of Its Reappearance

The smoke of the battle lingered from afternoon until evening before slowly dissipating. The setting sun, like blood, streamed through the mottled windowpanes into the room.

"Ugh—"

Nanali slowly awoke, her consciousness gradually returning from the chaos. She first let out a soft moan, then slowly sat up, stretching her body as if embracing the endless spring sunshine.

"Is this my future partner?"

Her gaze inadvertently fell on Nan Fusheng, and her thoughts instantly became complicated. Although her marriage to him was for ulterior motives, she had to admit that, in a sense, she already belonged to this man.

Although she was an evil spirit master, she was still a virgin! She naturally held an indescribable importance and cherished her first time.

"But he's also very handsome and talented, so it's not a complete loss."

Nanali pondered to herself, her gaze fixed on Nan Fusheng's sleeping face. She slowly reached out and gently stroked his face; the touch of her fingertips on his skin sent a shiver down her spine, as if an electric current was running through her.

"Awake? Feeling good?" A lazy yet penetrating voice suddenly rang out in the room. Nanali's hand froze in mid-air, her movements halting abruptly. Her heart tightened, as if gripped tightly by an invisible hand.

Turning around in a panic, she saw Fors sitting calmly on the sofa in a corner of the room. Her face was as calm as still water, without any ripples, but her deep eyes seemed to hide endless secrets and power, making her unfathomable.

She just looked at Nanali quietly, her eyes showing no anger, no resentment, only a chilling depth and tranquility.

"Oh no, I've run into the real deal!" Nanali thought to herself, feeling as if she had been struck by lightning, and instantly shuddered.

At that moment, Nanali completely disregarded the waves of pain emanating from her body. Driven by her survival instinct, she did not hesitate to roll off the bed, kneel down, and prostrate herself before Fors.

"Master, I..." Nanali opened her mouth, trying to explain, but the words caught in her throat. Her mind went blank; she didn't know where to begin. Should she lie and say that Nan Fusheng forced her? That she was powerless to resist?

Such an obvious lie would undoubtedly be a disgrace to Fors and would not be able to fool him at all.

"What should I do?" Nanali was extremely anxious. Large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, soaking her hair. Her hands were clenched tightly together, trembling slightly, and her body involuntarily shrank back.

"Are you comfortable?" Fors spoke again, her voice still calm, but to Nanali, it sounded like the tolling of a judgment bell, each word striking heavily against her heart.

"Comfortable."

Nanali gritted her teeth and answered with a forced smile. Aside from the initial stinging pain, she had to admit that afterwards, she did experience an unprecedented sense of pleasure and satisfaction.

"Yeah?"

Fors slowly stood up, her figure light and elegant. She moved gracefully past Nanali, her slender fingers gently touching Nan Fusheng's cheek, her movements soft and delicate, as if she were touching the most precious treasure in the world.

"I never expected you would do something like this just to avoid coming back to the Spirit Tower with me. Am I that scary to you?" Fors's voice was calm and even, but his words seemed to contain endless meaning and melancholy, making them hard to fathom.

Nanali thought to herself, "Don't you know whether you're going to scare me or not?" However, she didn't dare to show it on her face and still looked apprehensive.

"Never mind." After a moment, Fors gently withdrew her hand. She walked gracefully to Nanali's side, stood there quietly, and stared intently at Nanali with her deep and distant gaze.

"..."

Silence, a deathly stillness, filled the entire room.

Nanali didn't dare to breathe. She could clearly hear her own heartbeat, the pounding of her heart like a countdown to the impending trial.

She originally thought that when this moment came, she would have enough courage and confidence to face it, but when she was actually in it, she realized how small and fragile she was.

The powerful aura emanating from Fors was like a heavy shackle, binding her tightly and extinguishing even her courage to resist.

"Anyway, I'm leaving soon. In that case, Nanali, you'll follow Fusheng from now on and be his personal secretary and bodyguard." Fors's words broke the silence, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples.

Nanali looked up in astonishment, staring wide-eyed at Fors, her eyes filled with disbelief. She simply couldn't believe that Fors would let her go so easily. This sudden turn of events left her momentarily at a loss.

"What? You're not happy?" Fors raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes.

"No, I'd love to, I'd love to." Nanali nodded frantically, as if granted a pardon. At that moment, her heart was filled with the relief and joy of surviving a disaster, and she dared not disobey in the slightest.

"Okay." Fors nodded in satisfaction, then turned and walked towards the door. "For the next while, you'll be working with Fusheng. Remember to invite him to meals."

"Click." The sound of the bedroom door closing rang out, and Nanali breathed a sigh of relief. She slumped to the floor, a trace of fear still lingering in her eyes.

"I didn't expect that woman Fors would let me go so easily. But that's a good thing. At least I don't have to worry about my life being in danger for now."

After calming down a bit, Nanali rolled onto the bed again. She lay on her side next to Nan Fusheng, her gaze falling on his sleeping face, and a sense of curiosity arose in her heart.

"I wonder what it is about him that attracts Fors, that made that woman give in like that. It can't just be because he's exceptionally good in that area, can it?"

Thinking of this, Nanali's pretty face instantly flushed red. As a Super Douluo, she far surpassed Nan Fusheng in strength, yet in matters of the heart, she was easily manipulated by him, and even begged for mercy during their subsequent intimate moments.

This was undoubtedly an unprecedented shock and awe for her. After all, the difference in their cultivation levels was so vast, yet the result was far beyond her expectations.

"It must be because it's the first battle, otherwise it's hard to say who would be begging for mercy." Nanali found a reason in her mind, trying to comfort her somewhat wounded pride.

Then, she gently adjusted her position, slowly lay on Nan Fusheng's chest, feeling his body temperature and heartbeat, and gradually drifted off to sleep.

……

Meanwhile, in the western part of the continent, in the Tianjin Mountains, which are located almost in the far west.

There were endless, undulating snow-white mountain peaks that rose higher and higher into the clouds as you looked further away.

In those endless mountains, on a peak at least six thousand meters above sea level, lies a plain-like expanse. More precisely, a snowfield.

On that snow-covered plain, a cluster of barracks stood, seemingly quite large in scale. There were sentry posts around, but no watchtowers. Because they were covered in snow, it was impossible to even tell what materials the buildings were made of.

However, this barracks, which covers an area of ​​at least one square kilometer, is a real place!

This is the Blood God Legion located in the western part of the continent!

The Blood God Legion isn't even part of the Federal Military's order of battle; they are a completely unique entity. Yet, they are the most powerful army, guarding a little-known secret realm on the continent.

Those qualified to enlist here are all true elites. And only a few places are qualified to recommend soldiers here.

Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, War God Hall, Spirit Pagoda, and some ancient and long-standing Soul Master clans.

There are no weaklings here, because the weak simply cannot survive here. The service period here is also much longer than in the regular army—at least five years. But many people stay here for more than ten years.

At this moment, inside the Blood God Legion, on the arena within the Star Battle Network.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, a young man wielding a serpent spear, his body flashing with three purple and six black spirit rings, and nine spirit rings, was instantly sent flying, crashing heavily into the energy shield.

"Damn it, don't underestimate me!"

Xue Jiu roared, and a layer of gray, crystal-clear light shield burst forth from the surface of his magnificent battle armor. At the same time, his seventh soul ring lit up. In an instant, the serpent spear in his hand grew larger, and he himself transformed into a giant python over thirty meters long.

"You've already lost your chance."

Opposite Xue Jiu, a young man who was 1.8 meters tall, with a middle parting, wearing black and white overalls and silver-gray trousers, sighed helplessly.

Then, a terrifying array of nine spirit rings—three black and six red—appeared on the youth, and the phantom of a large fish also appeared behind him.

This scene made Xue Jiu raise his eyebrows. Although it wasn't the first time he had seen it, he still couldn't help but marvel at the terrifying soul ring configuration. Are all the younger generation outside this terrifying now?

He looked to be only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but his cultivation level far surpassed mine, and he even possessed this terrifying soul ring configuration.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Kunkun True Form"

A huge black whale phantom instantly appeared behind the youth, and a powerful aura suddenly appeared on Cai Xukun. It was as if all the elemental molecules in the surrounding air rushed into his body in an instant.

In an instant, Xue Jiu was horrified to feel that Cai Xukun's cultivation level had increased dramatically, and all the elemental attributes on the competition stage had disappeared in an instant.

"Kuroko Slash!"

Cai Xukun's black sword shone brightly, transforming into a massive slash that hurtled towards Xue Jiu.

"If there's no way to avoid it, then bring it on."

Xue Jiu's gaze sharpened, and without dodging, the giant python he had transformed into lunged at Cai Xukun. The massive slash struck Xue Jiu's Martial Soul True Body, creating bursts of shattered light, and actually forced the over thirty-meter-long Martial Soul True Body to retreat step by step.

At the same time, another giant python silently appeared behind Cai Xukun, also opening its huge mouth to bite at Cai Xukun's body.

The giant python that appeared behind Cai Xukun was Xue Jiu's most powerful soul spirit. It possessed the innate ability to teleport instantly, which is why it was able to appear behind Cai Xukun.

This was also Xue Jiu's plan: to use herself as bait to attract Cai Xukun's attention, and then let the soul deliver a fatal blow. Just as the giant python's mouth, large enough to swallow Cai Xukun whole, was about to bite him...

Suddenly, a black and white figure, as tall as a mountain, appeared out of nowhere and descended from the sky!

"Boom—" The enormous figure slammed directly into the thirty-meter-long giant snake, completely suppressing it and slamming it onto the ground!

His very existence has brought him to the top!

"Hiccup hiccup!"

A black and white figure crowed like a rooster; it was none other than Cai Xukun's first spirit: a rooster that could play basketball. Its alias was Dapeng, and its nickname was Zhiyin.

However, unlike its previous small size, the roc is now over fifty meters tall, a truly enormous creature.

Generally speaking, a Soul Master's Soul Spirits can only truly play a decisive role on the battlefield after reaching the seventh ring. This is because the vast majority of Soul Spirits cannot evolve, and Soul Spirits acquired in earlier years are of little use in actual combat.

But Cai Xukun is different. The three soul spirits he possesses were all tailor-made for him by Nan Fusheng, and they are full of potential. In addition, with the Spirit Transmission Tower behind him, he doesn't need to worry about the age of his soul spirits increasing.

Of course, Xue Jiu is obviously in a normal situation, so his most powerful soul spirit is this giant python. Not only is it perfectly compatible with his own martial soul, but it is also incredibly powerful in combat and has a cultivation level of ten thousand years.

Unfortunately, it encountered a super soul spirit that had already begun its bloodline evolution.

In terms of cultivation, its host, Cai Xukun, had already reached level ninety-four, just one step away from becoming a Super Douluo. Furthermore, the appearance of the Roc was too sudden; at least this attack by the giant python was directly extinguished by the Roc descending from the sky.

The sensation was like a giant anvil crashing down on a snake. The python's mouth opened even wider, and large plumes of gray gas billowed from its body; the impact had clearly severely injured it.

"Hehehe!" The roc opened its big mouth and, just like eating an earthworm, actually pecked at the giant python and then swallowed it whole.

"Pfft—" With its soul destroyed, Blood Nine couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. Its eyes revealed a mixture of shock and anger, and the ninth soul ring on its body shone brightly. Its entire battle armor also instantly turned into gray crystals.

Want to turn things around?

"You have no chance."

Cai Xukun's seventh soul skill flashed again, and then golden light began to emerge from his body. The giant Kun phantom behind him instantly transformed into a roc!
