Chapter 99 Luofu Immortal Ship, Ten Kings' Division, Hoho!
Buzz—
A layer of soft blue light rippled out instantly.
Bai Lu's originally small body seemed to grow taller in the light, and her originally chubby dragon tail became longer and more powerful, with a jade-like luster flowing on her scales.
She rubbed her eyes, and her once chubby face lost some of its childishness, her features becoming even more exquisite. Although she still looked like a young girl, she exuded a noble and dignified aura that made people dare not look directly at her.
That kind of charm is not just a change in appearance, but a leap in the level of life.
"So... I've become stronger?"
As Bibi Dong watched the little girl stretching in the video, her sense of frustration grew stronger.
The rewards from this prestigious list are incredibly immediate.
...
Night was falling.
Inside the Shence Palace, candlelight flickered.
Jing Yuan, wearing only a single garment, leaned against the bed, holding a military book in his hand, but did not turn a single page for a long time.
During this period, this far north place has become excessively lively.
First, Tang San's flea was jumping around, and then the list of successful candidates was exposed one after another.
"General, it's late."
The voice of a servant came from outside the door.
Just as Jing Yuan was about to blow out the candle, a petite figure slipped in through the crack in the door like an eel.
It was Bai Lu who had just absorbed the reward.
The little girl's cheeks were rosy, and her big eyes were filled with tears. She had lost all trace of the Dragon Lord's majesty and looked exactly like a wronged kitten looking for its parents.
"Brother Jing Yuan?"
Jing Yuan put down the military treatise and looked at her with amusement.
"It's so late, why aren't you resting at the Pill Refining Department? What are you doing here?"
Bai Lu didn't say anything. She ran to the bedside in a few steps, climbed up on her hands and feet, and then buried her head in Jing Yuan's arms, rubbing her little head against his chest.
"Brother Jing Yuan, I miss you so much."
Bai Lu's voice was soft and sweet, with a faint scent of medicine and milk.
"That reward hurt so much, my whole body is burning up. I want to sleep here with the general."
Jing Yuan felt the burning hot little body in his arms and shook his head helplessly.
This little guy has awakened the Immortal Origin Blood, and her bloodline power is too strong. She has come to him, the "Divine Lord," to borrow his strength to suppress the restless dragon blood within her.
"You always love to act cute like this."
Jing Yuan reached out and rubbed the pair of crystal-clear dragon horns.
Bai Lu hummed comfortably twice, then wrapped herself around Jing Yuan like an octopus, her tail quickly hooking around his calf.
The candles inside the room went out.
Only the gradually even breathing and the occasional soft murmurs in sleep added a touch of enchantment to this cold, far northern night.
...
The next morning.
The sunlight from the far north streamed into the room through the window lattice.
When Jing Yuan walked out of his bedchamber, he ran into the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, who had come to report on military affairs.
These two overlords of the far north, now dressed as maids of the celestial ship, could not conceal their stunning beauty.
Upon seeing Jing Yuan emerge, the Snow Empress's usually aloof face flushed slightly, and she bowed in greeting.
Behind Jing Yuan, Bai Lu walked out rubbing her eyes. Her face was rosy and as red as a ripe apple, and she exuded an amazing vitality.
The satisfied and contented look on her face made Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, who happened to be passing by, momentarily lose their focus.
"This..."
Qian Renxue looked at Bai Lu's aura, which had clearly grown stronger, and then at Jing Yuan's languid expression, and her mind began to wander.
Could it be that... staying by that general's side brings such benefits?
Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes lingered on Jing Yuan's broad shoulders and tall figure for a long time.
In this world where the strong are respected, attaching oneself to the strong is the law of survival.
If we could gain the favor of this general, not only would our strength increase, but overthrowing that damned divine realm would probably not be difficult.
Not far away, Qingque, holding several jade tokens in her hand, peeked in their direction, muttering to herself:
"Oh, the general seems to be in a good mood. Why don't you take this opportunity to ask for leave? Just say you want to study the rules of Far Northern Mahjong?"
Jing Yuan ignored the various gazes around him.
He stretched and looked out at the vast snowstorm beyond the Immortal Ship.
"General, is something on your mind?"
The Snow Empress noticed the change in Jing Yuan's aura and asked softly.
Jing Yuan withdrew his gaze, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"It's nothing, I just feel that if this sword is not used for a long time, it will rust."
He flicked his fingers lightly, producing a clear, ringing sound.
"Some people just can't learn their lesson. You give them face, and they'll throw it on the ground."
"Tang San is probably getting impatient."
Jing Yuan turned around, and in that instant, his originally lazy and easygoing temperament vanished, replaced by an unparalleled majesty that could change the very fabric of the world.
The majesty of the divine ruler is awe-inspiring even without anger.
Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue felt their breath catch in their throats, their knees went weak, and they almost knelt down on the spot.
Is this... the true face of General Luofu?
"Since they want to play, then this general will play along. It will also be a good opportunity for the people of the Douluo Continent to see what true power is."
Jing Yuan said calmly, then took a step forward and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
Only a single, light sentence remained, echoing in everyone's ears:
"Keep an eye on the house, I'll be right back."
...
Just as Jing Yuan left.
The golden list above the sky trembled once again.
The scene that originally belonged to Bai Lu vanished, replaced by a ghostly green flame and a timid scream.
[Rank 5 on the Power Ranking]
In the picture, there appears a little girl who looks even more timid than Bai Lu.
She was wearing a large official hat and holding a flag with the word "command" written on it. She was huddled in a corner, trembling, while a huge green tail was burning arrogantly behind her.
[Name: Huo Huo]
[Affiliation: Luofu Immortal Ship]
[Identity: Trainee Judge of the Ten Kings Division, Luofu Immortal Ship]
[Commentary: Born with the destiny name "Zhen Xiong" (贞凶), though timid and cowardly, this person bears the heavy responsibility of suppressing evil spirits. Their tail seals the "Floating Smoke" (浮烟) avatar of the year's yang energy, the Wildfire (燎原鬼火), which, once released, possesses the power to incinerate the souls of all things. The person is weak, but the tail is strong; one body, two souls, the might of a judge—all evil will retreat.]
[Reward: Suiyang is completely tamed (the tailed old man will unconditionally cooperate in battle, and his power will no longer backfire on the host; his soul strength will increase tenfold).]
...
Star Dou Forest, Lake of Life.
Gu Yuena, who was just shocked by Bai Lu's bloodline, was now completely numb as she looked at the little girl trembling with a flag on the Golden List.
"It's the Luofu Immortal Ship again..."
Gu Yuena's voice was somewhat ethereal.
"The Ten Kings' Division? Judges? What kind of organization is that?"
Looking at Huo Huo's easy-to-bully appearance, and then at the tail radiating terrifying soul energy, she felt as if her understanding of this world was collapsing.
