182: Chapter 182 The Dragon Pool will be revived, and Li Huayin finally appears!

Lin Ran's voice was like a demon's whisper from Hell, causing Su Yuling's delicate body to tremble violently, her eyes filled with panic.

"Lin... Lin Ran!? What exactly do you want to do?!"

Su Yuling took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. Ignoring the strange looks from those around her, she hurried toward the Cold Moon Pavilion.

"Nothing much. In the coming days, you only need to tell me every single detail of Su Qingyi's movements."

"If you hide anything, you know the consequences. I assume you don't want to feel the pain of the dao heart demon seed again, do you?"

"Hehehehe..."

Lin Ran's voice was like a heavy hammer, smashing Su Yuling's psychological defenses piece by piece.

Having been implanted with the dao heart demon seed, she had absolutely no right to refuse.

She didn't want to betray Su Qingyi, nor did she want to betray the Howling Moon Fox Clan, but now, she simply didn't have that right!

Lin Ran had completely taken control of her life and death, her everything.

If she dared to show even the slightest bit of disobedience, she feared Lin Ran would know and inflict punishment upon her!

She didn't dare to gamble!

"I... I understand!"

Su Yuling gritted her teeth and said this in her heart, returning to the Cold Moon Pavilion with a heart full of humiliation.

Heavenly Sound Tower.

While playing with Xuan Zhixue's wings, Lin Ran laughed coldly.

"Su Qingyi, this time This Holy Son wants to see who is plotting against whom."

Since Su Qingyi dared to plot against his Master Baby, she should have long realized that this day would come sooner or later!

With Su Yuling acting as his inside contact, he wanted to see if Su Qingyi really had three heads and six arms to escape from his grasp!

"Mmh..."

Xuan Zhixue suddenly collapsed weakly into his arms, her face flushed with an endless blush, her eyes hazy, and soft moans continuous in her throat.

"Zhixue Baby, your willpower seems to be getting worse and worse~"

Seeing this, Lin Ran gently pinched Xuan Zhixue's chin with his right hand and let out a wicked laugh.

Xuan Zhixue closed her eyes and bit her lip tightly, not saying a word.

She was becoming increasingly unable to distinguish whether it was the dao heart demon seed at work or her own heart.

But her heart was now constantly urging her to push Lin Ran down!!!

"Damn dao heart demon seed..."

Lin Ran looked at Xuan Zhixue in this state and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Zhixue Baby, you know very well that as long as you are willing to give me a warm welcome, This Holy Son will surely give you my all."

"Do you really think your current changes are all because of the dao heart demon seed?"

"Actually... it's all your own heart at work~"

Lin Ran leaned close to Xuan Zhixue's ear, gently biting her earlobe and exhaling hot breath.

He wanted to invade Xuan Zhixue's heart step by step, making her fall completely into corruption!

"However, even if you don't give me a warm welcome, This Holy Son will still give you my all~"

Lin Ran picked up Xuan Zhixue and walked toward the bedroom Gu Liuqin had prepared for him.

...

In the Imperial City of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty, a dragon's roar suddenly resounded through heaven and earth, scattering the white clouds in the sky and striking directly at people's hearts!

"It's the Dragon Pool! The Dragon Pool is about to awaken again!"

"I wonder if any Princes and Princesses will be able to walk those legendary one thousand steps during this awakening of the Dragon Pool?"

"I think it's a bit unlikely. Those legendary one thousand steps haven't been entered by anyone since the ancestor of our Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty created the Dragon Pool."

"Have you forgotten the Crown Prince who has suddenly risen recently? In my opinion, it is indeed very likely that the Crown Prince can enter those legendary one thousand steps!"

"Let's wait and see. The Crown Prince's performance recently has indeed been somewhat unexpected..."

The awakening of the Dragon Pool disturbed the old monsters lurking in the Imperial City.

The Dragon Pool is said to be a place of Opportunity and Legacy created by the ancestor of the Jue Jian Imperial Dynasty, specifically for tempering the Physical Bodies of the imperial descendants.

In the Dragon Pool, there are nine paths in total, and each path is equipped with one thousand lotus platforms.

Stepping onto one lotus platform counts as one step.

The more steps taken, the stronger the dragon pressure applied to the Physical Body, and the greater the effect of tempering the Physical Body.

However, since the Dragon Pool was created, no one has ever been able to step onto the thousandth lotus platform.

It is said that at the end of the lotus platforms, there is an Opportunity left behind by the ancestor, but so far no one has been able to obtain it.

"Buzz!"

At this moment, another beam of divine light pierced the sky, reaching straight into the clouds.

"It's the Ling Shen Mystic Realm! The Ling Shen Mystic Realm has closed!"

"Phew! The closing of the Ling Shen Mystic Realm is quite timely. The Princes and Princesses who went in for training should be coming out now. Otherwise, missing this awakening of the Dragon Pool would be too great a loss."

"Indeed, the timely closing of the Ling Shen Mystic Realm can be considered a blessing for the Princes and Princesses."

The Divine Senses of a group of old fogies communicated through transmissions in the Void Realm, speaking cheerfully.

In front of the Ling Shen Mystic Realm, the figures of the various Princes and Princesses appeared together.

Among them, Li Huayin and Li Zhenwu were prominently present!

And at the very moment of leaving the Ling Shen Mystic Realm, the transmission token at Li Huayin's waist began to flash frantically.

"Big sis, could this be brother-in-law worrying about you and sending you transmissions like crazy?"

Li Zhenwu grinned mischievously.

He knew that since his big sister returned to the Imperial Province, she would send transmissions to Lin Ran every few days.

During this period, they had entered the Ling Shen Mystic Realm, unable to receive or send transmissions to the outside world.

He guessed that Lin Ran must be worried to death!

"Stop being so cheeky!"

Li Huayin glared at him, but her heart was filled with infinite sweetness.

She sank her Divine Sense into the transmission token, and her expression gradually turned into one of surprise and joy.

Just as Li Zhenwu said, Lin Ran had indeed been very worried about her during this time; his transmissions clearly showed his anxiety.

What surprised her even more was that Lin Ran had already arrived in the Imperial Province and was waiting for her at the Heavenly Sound Tower!

Li Huayin admitted she was very moved and even wanted to rush to the Heavenly Sound Tower immediately to see her beloved!

However, having just come out of the Ling Shen Mystic Realm, she still needed to pay respects to her father along with the other Princes and Princesses, so she couldn't go looking for Lin Ran just yet.

But it wouldn't take long.

"Lin Ran, wait for me, I'll come find you right away!"

...

[Ding! Detected that Xuan Zhixue's favorability has increased by 10 points!]

[Reward: 14,000 destiny points, one breakthrough pill!]

[Current favorability of Xuan Zhixue: 45!]

Inside the Heavenly Sound Tower, Lin Ran was awakened by the System's notification tone and stretched lazily.

As for Xuan Zhixue, she had long since departed, likely to be with Meng Qing again.

Lin Ran sat cross-legged on the bed, summoned the yin-yang great dao treasure vase, took out the divine source stone Gu Liuqin had given him, and prepared to enter closed-door cultivation.

He had a premonition that through this cultivation, the scales of the Yin-Yang Primordial Dao Ancestral Dragon would surely break through to the number of 3,000!
