Chapter 310: Lei Yuan Advances to a Bloodline Warlock
“Bloodline path?”
With just a brief glance, Scarlet Sun Saint saw through Zhou Ming completely.
The Spirit Molting Snake Emperor Bloodline that Zhou Ming possessed held no secrets in his eyes.
“You intend to let this little girl, Lei Yuan, walk the path of a Bloodline Warlock?”
“Reporting to Your Highness Scarlet Sun Saint, I indeed have such a plan. Using my bloodline as the source, I will help Lei Yuan step onto the transcendent path and obtain a longer lifespan.”
“In this way, she can better display her talents and bring greater benefits to the Alliance.”
“You little fellow are not honest at all. I don’t know how this girl Lei Yuan ended up liking you.”
The Scarlet Sun Saint clearly did not believe Zhou Ming’s explanation.
“However, since you have already left a bloodline seed inside Lei Yuan, let me see your methods. If I am satisfied, I will allow her to choose the path of a Bloodline Warlock.”
At this moment, the Scarlet Sun Saint had become interested and wanted to see how Zhou Ming would help Lei Yuan step onto the transcendent path.
As his voice fell, Zhou Ming immediately felt his strength return.
Only after personally experiencing the power of a Legendary Saint did Zhou Ming truly understand the gap between transcendent and legend.
If the difference between a Transcendent Master and an official profession was a chasm, then the difference between a Transcendent Master and a Legendary Saint was that of entirely different dimensions.
Whether it was instantaneous spatial descent or sealing his strength purely through aura, none of it could be measured by conventional power—it was simply a dimensional suppression.
“Please offer guidance, Your Highness Scarlet Sun Saint.”
After respectfully bowing, Zhou Ming turned to look at Lei Yuan.
“Lei Yuan, do you trust your Brother Zhou?”
“I trust you. Absolutely.”
There was not the slightest hesitation in Lei Yuan’s response. Even though Zhou Ming had previously used methods on her, she still believed he would not harm her.
“That’s good. Remember, do not resist in any way—not even the slightest rejection.”
“Don’t worry, Brother Zhou. Let His Highness see your ability—don’t disappoint him.”
Lei Yuan clenched her fists in encouragement, which made the Scarlet Sun Saint smile slightly.
He quite liked this girl; otherwise, he would not have given Zhou Ming a chance for her sake.
“Good.”
Without wasting any more time, Zhou Ming directly used Shapeshifting. Before everyone’s eyes, he transformed into a ten-meter-long Spirit Molting Serpent.
Seeing this transformation, Lei Yuan’s mouth formed an “O” in shock, yet she showed no fear or terror.
As for Yao Zhentu and the other person beside him, they were also astonished—this was their first time witnessing such a method.
Under the gaze of the Scarlet Sun Saint and the others, Zhou Ming, in serpent form, coiled around Lei Yuan and enclosed her.
“Close your eyes and relax.”
Hearing Zhou Ming’s voice, Lei Yuan did not hesitate at all. She immediately closed her eyes and allowed him to act.
The next moment, the bloodline aura of the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor blossomed within the room.
Sensing this unique aura, the Scarlet Sun Saint narrowed his eyes slightly, clearly surprised.
With his ability, he could naturally perceive that the bloodline will within that aura was actually dominated by Zhou Ming himself.
As Zhou Ming activated the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor Bloodline, the bloodline seed within Lei Yuan’s body began to change instantly.
The Spirit Molting Snake bloodline, possessing an erosive nature, began transforming her bloodline genes.
Regarding the changes within her body, Lei Yuan followed Zhou Ming’s instructions and made no resistance.
Even the instinctive rejection from deep within her did not appear.
As the influence of the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor Bloodline deepened, Lei Yuan’s aura finally began to change, and a wave of energy fluctuations emerged within the room.
Then, a Dragon Transformation Fruit was spat from Zhou Ming’s serpent mouth, turning into a crimson medicinal force that entered Lei Yuan’s body.
Originally, this fruit had been prepared by Zhou Ming as a contingency during his advancement.
However, his breakthrough to Transcendent Master had gone exceptionally smoothly, so he had not used it and instead kept it.
Its purpose had always been intended for Lei Yuan.
Under the catalytic effect of the Dragon Transformation Fruit, the Spirit Molting Snake bloodline within Lei Yuan gradually fused with her under Zhou Ming’s control.
As the fusion deepened, the aura she emitted had already reached the level of a low-tier Ferocious Beast.
But Zhou Ming did not stop. Several High-grade Source Crystals appeared from his serpent mouth, transforming into the necessary energy to nourish Lei Yuan’s physique and spiritual power.
At the same time, knowledge of Bloodline Warlocks surfaced in Lei Yuan’s mind.
Relying on the informational inheritance within bloodlines, Zhou Ming transmitted the Bloodline Warlock inheritance he had obtained directly into her through bloodline inheritance.
Time slowly passed. When the bloodline aura within Lei Yuan reached a critical point, it suddenly fell silent—then erupted like a volcano.
Originally just an ordinary person, Lei Yuan directly skipped the apprentice stage and advanced to the professional rank.
Such a method caused even the Scarlet Sun Saint’s expression to grow serious.
If this method could be replicated, the Alliance would gain a large number of professional-level combatants, surpassing foreign races and ferocious beasts in lower-tier strength.
After confirming Lei Yuan’s condition was stable, Zhou Ming returned to his normal form.
“Brother Zhou, I’ve advanced to the professional rank?”
At this moment, Lei Yuan’s temperament had gained a trace of charm, yet it did not diminish her original aura. Instead, intellect and allure blended perfectly.
“You’re the weakest kind of professional-rank Bloodline Warlock. You haven’t mastered spells, meditation techniques, or combat experience—you can only rely on your level to suppress apprentice-level beings.”
“And my lifespan?”
Lei Yuan did not care about those things—she only cared about her lifespan, because stepping onto the transcendent path meant she could accompany Zhou Ming.
“Your lifespan is the same as a normal professional-rank Beast Tamer.”
Hearing this, Lei Yuan excitedly hugged Zhou Ming and offered him the first kiss she had preserved for thirty years.
“Ahem, have you two forgotten about this old man?”
“Your Highness Scarlet Sun Saint, how can you be old? With a legend’s lifespan, you are in your prime.”
Lei Yuan immediately blushed and defended him.
“Zhou Ming, can this method of yours be used on others?”
The Scarlet Sun Saint ignored Lei Yuan and instead asked about the replicability of Zhou Ming’s method.
“Reporting to Your Highness, this method cannot be used on others. The reason is that the recipient must have absolutely no resistance toward me.”
“Even if there is no conscious resistance, instinctive rejection cannot be avoided. Only Lei Yuan could completely open her heart to me.”
Hearing this explanation, the Scarlet Sun Saint understood the harsh conditions and no longer pursued the matter.
“Since you have successfully helped Lei Yuan advance to a Bloodline Warlock, I will not pursue what happened earlier.”
“However, Lei Yuan is involved in a top-secret project, so you cannot be together for the time being. But I can give you one month.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
Zhou Ming and Lei Yuan immediately bowed in gratitude.
“Oh right, regarding the matter of the Yang Family—although they were in the wrong, they did not cause you harm. I will have them compensate you, and we will consider that matter settled.”
Just as the Scarlet Sun Saint was about to leave, he seemed to recall something and added this reminder.
After all, with Zhou Ming’s strength, the Yang Family would inevitably be destroyed sooner or later.
But given the current situation of the Alliance, transcendent-level combat power could not be lost, especially with the increasingly frequent movements of foreign races.
“Yes, since Your Highness is willing to mediate, I will comply.”
Faced with the will of the Scarlet Sun Saint, Zhou Ming did not argue and accepted calmly.
“Good.”
The Scarlet Sun Saint revealed a satisfied expression.
In the next moment, he disappeared directly from the reception room.
