82: Divine level, bloodline of the nine-tailed divine fox!

Shangguan Yaoyao didn't hesitate in the slightest: "I choose the second one!"

Her eyes showed a strong longing.

The Nine-Star Divine Fox Bloodline and the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Bloodline, though only one word apart, were as different as heaven and earth!

Three-element Bloodlines had been extremely rare in the entire cultivation world from ancient times until now.

Not to mention the combination of the two bug-like Bloodlines of illusion and space.

The Nine-Star Divine Fox Bloodline was simply not worth mentioning in front of it.

What's more, the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Bloodline was one of the origin Bloodlines of ancient creatures.

The spiritual energy it evolved was one of the purest True Qi.

The next moment, a sudden, heart-gouging pain swept through her entire body.

"Hold on... Shangguan Yaoyao... you must hold on..."

"This is your only... hope!"

Time passed bit by bit.

The next moment, she was completely renewed, as if she had undergone Nirvana Rebirth!

"Shangguan Youyou, I'm no longer inferior to you!"

"My Bloodline far surpasses yours!"

"Ding, it has been detected that you and your Dao Companion jointly defeated a Mahayana-level enemy, earning the title 'Husband and Wife United, Their Strength Cuts Through Gold'!"

"Scenario Description: When neither side expressed themselves, you cooperated with the greatest tacit agreement as if you were connected heart to heart, and every step of your cooperation was seamless, achieving such unexpected results!"

"Congratulations to the Host for unlocking the hidden quest 'Unexpected Delight' (Understanding each other too well can dull emotions; use your brain to give your Dao Companion an unexpected delight!)"

"Quest 'Unexpected Delight': Do ten things for your Dao Companion, ten things that can bring him unexpected surprises!"

"Quest Rewards: 1, Specified Reward Item 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card' (Claim Reward); 2, For each one completed, you can directly comprehend one Immortal Rank illusion art (Progress Reward); 3, Obtain Nine-Tailed Divine Sense! (Final Reward)"

"Does the Host wish to claim it?"

Shangguan Yaoyao said excitedly: "Claim! Claim!"

Whether it was the specified reward item 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card', the Immortal Rank illusion art, or the Divine Sense from myths, Shangguan Yaoyao desired them all.

Especially the 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card', which meant she no longer had to start from Qi Condensation!

She could directly recover to the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation strength!

"Hidden Quest 'Unexpected Delight' unlocked, obtained specified reward item 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card'"

"'Unexpected Delight' hidden quest officially activated!"

"Current Progress: 0 / 10"

Shangguan Yaoyao directly used the 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card'.

The next moment, her strength directly reached the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation.

But that wasn't all; her True Qi actually became Divine-Grade!

Divine-Grade Nine-Tailed True Qi!?

"No wonder it's called 'Cultivation Recovery Perfect Card'; it even has a perfecting function!"

"It truly lives up to being a Heavenly Dao Opportunity!"

Just then, Jiang Lin's voice came from outside the door, indicating his return.

She rushed out of the room, wanting to reveal the news of her recovered strength to him.

It wasn't a happy sharing, but rather to tell Jiang Lin that she wasn't useless, she still had value!

After this incident, she understood Jiang Lin's habits even more clearly.

He cared more about his own value!

As long as she could provide him with value, he wouldn't abandon her, and he could also continuously improve his favorability!

Otherwise, she would be completely useless!

The moment Jiang Lin saw Shangguan Yaoyao, his eyes suddenly lit up.

At this moment, Shangguan Yaoyao could no longer be described merely as having a naturally enchanting physique.

Standing there, she was walking desire.

Every movement seemed to stir Jiang Lin's most primal impulses, making him unable to resist wanting to rush forward and ravage the woman before him.

Fortunately, the half-step Dao Art 'Purification Sutra' was constantly running in his mind, allowing him to maintain his original intention and rationality.

But this aura was too alluring!

She truly lived up to the name "Yao'er."

Most importantly, this wasn't even her original appearance!

He could try it sometime...

Also...

This fellow actually recovered her strength!?

The Shangguan Family, what a grand gesture!

As expected of the female lead, she just couldn't go offline!

He had originally thought of using her as bait one last time, then sending her and Xiao Dong to their deaths together.

Now, things needed to change.

Currently, having her personally end Xiao Dong should be a good choice!

Her current strength shouldn't be too severely weakened.

He could also test her true capabilities at the same time!

"Yao'er, it's really great that you've recovered. I'll need your help later, so come out with me!"

As soon as Jiang Lin finished speaking, Lin Qingxue snorted coldly: "'Use' her well!"

With that, she walked directly into the room without looking back.

"Second Sister, I'm going out for a bit. These Yao Beasts are quite strange, so Shi Rou, I'll have to trouble you!"

"Get lost immediately!"

Inside the room, Lin Qingxue's face was slightly angry, clutching her long sword tightly.

Jiang Lin was already such a lecherous scoundrel.

Why am I so angry?

Didn't I know this long ago?

Didn't I humble myself to him several times later, all for the Heavenly Dao rewards?

Why should I be angry?

I'm not angry at all!

Clatter!

The teacup fell directly to the ground, and Lin Qingxue's mouth still maintained a stiff smile: "I'm really not angry!"

"Jiang Lin, if I ever feel bad for your body again, I'll write my name 'Lin' backward!"

Outside the door, after comforting Xia Shirou, Jiang Lin walked in front of Shangguan Yaoyao.

"Let's go, come out with me..."

Before Jiang Lin could speak, Shangguan Yaoyao directly threw herself into Jiang Lin's arms and whispered in his ear: "Aren't we going back to the room to 'use' each other before we go about our business?"

...

Third floor of the inn.

Jiang Liu was bent over behind Jiang Lin, having just finished reporting on the recent situation in Black Yuan City.

"Young Lord, that blind man isn't honest; he secretly gave Xiao Dong a lucky transfer sachet. Should we just..."

Jiang Lin closed the folding fan in his hand, picked up the teacup, and shook his head: "No need. The methods of the Heterodox Sect are quite strange. Unless absolutely necessary, there's no need to kill him!"

"Moreover, they are already abandoned by the Heavenly Dao. Keeping him is still somewhat useful... Besides, his entire family is in my hands. What waves can he stir up?"

"Even great fortune can't save Xiao Dong, let alone a sachet!"

"By the way, what is Xiao Dong doing now?"

Jiang Liu quickly flattered him: "Young Lord is truly prescient. A few words from that old blind man made that fellow stay in Black Yuan City to resist those Yao Beasts!"

Jiang Lin slowly sipped the clear tea in his hand and said indifferently: "That blind man didn't lie; it was all the truth. Do you think an Immortal Saint is that easy to deceive?"

"I went to great lengths to lure him into taking endless advantages, just waiting for today..."

"Otherwise, if he took the Dragon Qi and left, it would be a bit tricky!"

Rumble!

Thunder flashed in the sky above Black Yuan City, and torrential rain began to fall.

"A storm is brewing!"

Jiang Lin extended a slender finger to catch the falling raindrops.

But the raindrops were strangely red.

"Young Lord, do we really need to continue strengthening those Yao Beasts? Some Yao Beasts have already broken through control..."

Jiang Lin smiled: "Why control them?"

"Let them be chaotic, let them be truly chaotic. Now, there are plenty of people to worry!"

"As for us, we'll watch the show, drink tea, and roast by the fire..."

"By the way, has the brazier I wanted been delivered?"

Jiang Liu quickly said: "The Family Head objected, but Young Miss directly rushed into the family treasury and snatched the brazier out. It's now below the inn, and as Young Lord said, the Reverse Refining Fire is endless!"

Hearing this, Jiang Lin drank the tea in his hand and said: "Well done. This mask is yours. I hope you don't betray my trust!"

Jiang Liu immediately knelt down and pledged: "Young Miss saved me from the mire, the Jiang Family's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain, and Young Lord gives me supreme trust. Jiang Liu will repay this kindness with death and will never be disloyal!"

Jiang Lin nodded, waved a clear breeze, and helped him up.

"In this world, no one is worth kneeling to, including me..."

Boom!

Another clap of thunder.

But it struck Black Cloud Peak.

"Young Lord, Madam is trapped. Do we really not need to rescue her? Now, the Jiang Family's forty thousand deathsworn are ready at any time. A single Black Cloud Peak is nothing to fear!"

Jiang Lin opened the folding fan in his hand and smiled: "If Liu Yaner and Liu Ziyuan die there, will the Liu Family, with its millions of troops, rebel?"
