Chapter 361 – Dong Qianqiu’s Inquiry
For some reason, the fat ape who was eating happily looked as if it had felt something, when it looked up and saw Lan Xuanyu, it stared blankly for a moment, and then suddenly bared its fangs at him. Lan Xuanyu frowned. At this instant, he could clearly feel the malice emanating from the fat ape.
It doesn’t like me? At the same time, the rainbow-colored gem on his chest also sent a heated wave, and then a silent and majestic aura was released.
The fat ape shivered as if a cold bucket of water was poured on him, and immediately became more docile. There was a trace of terror in its eyes when looking at Lan Xuanyu, as if it had felt something.
“Xuanyu, I’m finished. I’m so pitiful!” Qian Lei looked at him full of sorrow.
“What’s the matter, what happened to you ?” Lan Xuanyu asked suspiciously.
Qian Lei’s eyes were red, “Look, how can I be so unlucky. You went to earn Douluo coins and I wasn’t there in time. You helped Frenzie and Huihui’s bloodline to awaken and I wasn’t there neither. When I finally found a treasure, by pure luck, something even worse happened to me.”
He then recounted what happened last night in detail. After they returned from Eternal Sky City, Ying Luohong took him to the training room to conduct a series of tests on the fat ape.
The results showed that the fat ape did not seem to be good at fighting, or that it was not good while still at the juvenile period. As for how long it would need to grow up, and what it could become after that, who knew ?
In other words, this little guy was basically useless to Qian Lei, at least for now. However, this little fat ape had actually occupied his third soul ring! Through his third soul skill, it could be summoned without any soul power consumption.
Although it didn’t consume his soul power, it constantly absorbed Qian Lei’s vitality. Even after Qian Lei’s reminder, it would still slowly absorb a little bit.
Of course no problem would occur within a short timeframe, but if it continued its absorption for a long enough time, Qian Lei would become unable to leave Shrek Academy, otherwise it would accelerate his aging due to his loss of vitality.
It was useless. It absorbed his life energy, and even occupied his third soul ring.
After listening to Qian Lei’s explanation, even Lan Xuanyu felt that he was possessed by the god of misfortune.
After speaking of these pain points, Qian Lei couldn’t help crying loudly. The fat ape didn’t understand what was happening, and it raised his hand to touch his head and patted him on the back, looking very considerate.
Lan Xuanyu smiled bitterly: “Don’t cry, what’s the use of crying! When I arrived just now, it seemed to have reacted to me. I think this little guy should be quite unusual. Maybe wait for it to grow up. Then it will become stronger. If you feed it well now, maybe a miracle will happen in the future?”
Qian Lei raised his head, looking at Lan Xuanyu with teary eyes, “Will it really be like this?”
Lan Xuanyu looked at him, looked at the fat ape with its innocent and harmless look, coughed, and said, “It should be.”
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang from a distance, “Lan Xuanyu.”
When Lan Xuanyu turned his head to look, two beautiful girls in school uniforms were walking in from the cafeteria, it was Lan Mengqin and Dong Qianqiu.
“I called them. I also called Frenzie and Huihui, as I wanted to ask you guys for help in this situation. Frenzie didn’t answer, nor did Huihui. Maybe they were still practicing or sleeping.” Qian Lei said.
When Lan Xuanyu saw Dong Qianqiu again, he suddenly felt that she seemed to have changed a little. Not only did her temperament seem to feel a little bit more otherworldly, she also seemed more elegant, and most importantly, her eyes seemed to have changed a lot when she looked at him.
Originally Dong Qianqiu would look at him with a faint smile, a very usual situation. It was another matter when she was angry. But currently, her eyes when looking at him were full of complex emotions, and there was even a somewhat hard to describe look.
It was Dong Qianqiu who called him, Lan Xuanyu got up and greeted her, “Are you okay? You didn’t come to class yesterday.”
Dong Qianqiu shook her head silently, “Come out with me for a second.”
“Ok.” Lan Xuanyu followed Dong Qianqiu, but Lan Mengqin saw the fat ape sitting there next to Qian Lei who was already eating and drinking again, and couldn’t help but walk over with curiosity.
“What’s this situation ? Where did you find such a meatball ? Yiii, why did you seem to have become fatter. How much have you guys eaten?” Lan Mengqin was surprised to find that Qian Lei was originally only slightly fat but now he seemed to be really fat.
Qian Lei said in tears: “Help me think of a way…”
***
Lan Xuanyu followed Dong Qianqiu to the outside of the cafeteria, “What’s wrong with you?” His perception was very keen, and he felt that there was something wrong with Dong Qianqiu.
Dong Qianqiu turned around, looked at him, and said, “Is your surname really Lan? Is your father or mother also surnamed Lan? Can you tell me how you sensed that gem ?”
Lan Xuanyu stared blankly for a moment, and tentatively said: “Can you also feel this gem’s peculiarity ?”
Dong Qianqiu nodded silently, “I didn’t notice it at first, but I’ve noticed some things later on, especially after seeing your reactions.”
Lan Xuanyu looked at her profoundly and said, “Of course my father’s surname is Lan, and my mother’s surname is Nan. There is no doubt. As for why I can sense this gem’s peculiarity, to be honest, I really don’t know. In fact, I also want to know why it seems to be related to my bloodline. I can only tell you that it seems to be related to dragon-type bloodline. In my bloodline lurks something akin to a dragon-type aura and the same goes for the gem, and so the two resonated.”
While talking, Lan Xuanyu raised his hands, and gold and silver scales appeared on his hands.
“Furthermore, a strange thing happened yesterday. Before I got it, I tried to strap my two kinds of Blue Silver Grass to boost Frenzie. I didn’t expect that after he exploded many times, his Martial Soul went through a Second Awakening the next morning. His bloodline power had awakened, it seems to the White Dragon King’s bloodline, and he became much stronger. But that night, under the influence of the gem, my bloodline seems to have changed, and the two kinds of bloodlines have become more harmonious. But because of that, there was no longer anything happening when I dual-boost with the two attributes. I can’t help others to mutate anymore. I was just looking for you, I don’t know if we can still use our Deep Blue Gaze. I want to try it with you. Let’s go back to the simulation pod. Doing it in the real world is not safe.”
Dong Qianqiu quietly listened to his narration, and said with a wry smile: “My bloodline seems to have also awakened.”
“Huh?” Lan Xuanyu was dumbfounded. And it didn’t seem illogical ! If there was someone who had received the most times his dual-boost, it was Dong Qianqiu. Yuanen Huihui had mutated, and so had Liu Feng yesterday. How could nothing have happened to Dong Qianqiu t?
“You didn’t come to class yesterday because of this?” Lan Xuanyu asked dumbfounded.
“Yeah.” Dong Qianqiu nodded silently.
“No wonder you ask me these weird questions. Did you awaken your bloodline? Or is it your Martial Soul ?” Lan Xuanyu asked curiously.
Dong Qianqiu said: “It should be all. You will know later on. Are you, are you really not surnamed Tang? But your bloodline…”
The memory fragments from last night reminded her of many things, and especially that golden figure.
“Your question is really weird, why should I be surnamed Tang?” Lan Xuanyu said curiously.
Dong Qianqiu muttered to himself: “Isn’t it? No, it must be. The similar aura, and the gem, I have seen them before.”
“You have seen them? Where have you seen them?” Lan Xuanyu hurriedly asked. He also wanted to know the origin of that rainbow-colored gem.
