Chapter 178: 155: Having Seen the Dragon King, Why Not Bow?_2
Were the owners of those Buddha statues also like An Shelie, who had already fallen, or were they mighty beings who had delved too deep into the realm of eternal life?However, the difference is
That the owners of the statues should be stronger.
They don’t need lineage, as long as there are people in this world who remember them,
They could descend their consciousness and return.
"So, what about you?" Su Heng asked thoughtfully, "Since you’ve already broken with your family, what brings you here? What good does stopping An Shelie’s resurrection do for you?"
"An Ran is exactly the incarnation prepared by the family for An Shelie," Luo Qi said with a pale face.
"I see." Su Heng’s gaze fell on the unconscious girl. Her realm was only Blood Exchange, but the aura she emitted was incredibly powerful. Su Heng estimated that Luo Shuang, Wang Xindong, and other Deputy Governors might not be able to defeat her.
"Then you shouldn’t have come here if you just wanted to survive. You should have stayed far away. The Great Zhou Dynasty has 154 provinces with a population of several billion. If you want to flee and hide, no one could stop you."
The main factors limiting the territory of the ancient dynasties in past lives were the transmission of information, and the transportation of troops.
But in this world, with Heavenly Deceit Realm experts possessing all sorts of unimaginable methods, the land is naturally vast.
Moreover, with the help of demons’ Divine Skills to regulate weather and increase food production, the population is also exceedingly abundant. These are some of the secrets Su Heng gradually learned after becoming the governor of the Demon Suppression Bureau.
In places like Jiangzhou, within the three counties, the population totals over seven million.
In the empire, it’s even considered a province with a smaller population.
Under such circumstances, if the two of them wanted to run, it would be like a drop of water merging into the ocean.
It would be very difficult to track them down.
"It’s not as you imagine," Luo Qi took a deep breath and explained, "Lineage is both a blessing and a shackle. As long as An Ran has Dragon Blood flowing through her, she cannot escape the raging will of An Shelie."
"So, your purpose in coming here is..."
"We want to kill him," said Luo Qi decisively.
"Haha!" Su Heng laughed, "You want to kill a dead man, which sounds quite funny."
"An Shelie’s consciousness has already been severely damaged over a thousand years. If he dies once more, the Eight-Armed Dragon King will completely become history," Luo Qi stated.
"An existence beyond Heavenly Deceit, I don’t think you two can pose a threat."
"We have a secret weapon!" Luo Qi walked over to An Ran’s side, Li Hongxiu hurriedly made way for her. She
"Roar!"
Before Su Heng could respond, a terrifying Dragon Power exploded from An Ran.
Glass, doors, and windows in the room shattered inch by inch; tables and chairs vibrated back and forth. Ash fell from the ceiling, and cracks spread along the walls. Among those present, Luo Shuang, Li Hongxiu, and others wore expressions of pain, as resisting this tremendous Dragon Power took all their strength.
"Hahaha! After a millennium, I finally return!"
An Ran’s slender body abruptly arched backward, her hair unfurling. As she floated straight off the ground, bright moonlight scattered around her.
Despite her face looking identical to just a moment ago, with only her pale skin now covered in golden flames, her demeanor and aura were completely opposite. Anyone could tell that the body had been taken over by someone else.
"Today I realize how fortunate this world is," An Ran’s face was stern, her expression still crazy, but her voice gradually calmed down. "To nurture the strong without resentment, to foster all beings without pride. Through the ages, only the moonlight remains unchanged."
An Ran or rather, An Shelie’s gaze swept around.
It finally landed on Su Heng who was the only one standing. Her eyebrows flicked up, and with a naturally calm tone, she said, "Seeing the Dragon King, why do you not kneel?"
"Heh heh—"
With a cold laugh, Su Heng fiercely threw a punch toward An Ran’s face, "I kneel to no one!"
