Chapter 788: Chapter 785 Two Choices_1
Seeing Bai Xiuxiu's beauty, Xu Ran felt unsettled.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. That good-for-nothing Tang Wulin had wooed Gu Yuena, while Tang Xuanyu had swept away Bai Xiuxiu.
The Tang family, either they're wooing soul beasts or they're killing them.
A hundred-thousand-year-old female soul beast, they woo but never kill. For a hundred-thousand-year-old non-female soul beast, if it doesn't become a soul spirit, it becomes a Soul Ring—each fate worse than the last.
Do the Tang family have a vendetta against soul beasts?
There are so many mighty beings in the Divine Realm, they haven't slaughtered that many ferocious beasts over countless years. Those ferocious beasts, it wasn't too bad for them before the Tang family descended; they lived uncomfortably but at least they didn't die. But as soon as a Tang family member comes down, hell, those beasts die in droves.
Could it be that those ferocious beasts choose just the moments when the Tang family descends to commit evil? And otherwise, they behave?
Think about it, the Tang family members specifically target their friends, the soul beasts.
The soul beasts are forced to shrink back into the Aquipeia Forest, too scared to speak or act, and you still go there to drag them out and turn them into Soul Rings.
If you dare resist, then you get labeled.
Look at Gu Yuena, as if thinking of her kind was wrong, and it's somehow right to follow Tang Wulin.
What kind of values are these? It's like moral principles have been shattered to pieces.
Logically, since every member of the Tang family is married to a soul beast, they should be lenient towards soul beasts. Instead, they are the ones responsible for killing the most ferocious beasts. All those beasts have become their Soul Rings.
"Master."
A fragrant breeze stirred, and Bai Xiuxiu walked up to Xu Ran, her face flushed.
Looking at Xu Ran, her heart was filled with unease.
"Master, do I look pretty?" Bai Xiuxiu nervously asked. It's a question that makes every girl feel insecure when facing someone they like.
She wasn't sure if Xu Ran liked this style of hers.
"You look good. My Xiuxiu, naturally, you'd look good after Transforming," said Xu Ran with a smile, taking Bai Xiuxiu's hand.
"Oh," Bai Xiuxiu secretly rejoiced inside.
"Am I still going to be your mount then, Master?" Bai Xiuxiu asked shyly, her head lowered as she looked at her beautiful legs, very anxious.
"What do you think?" Xu Ran leaned in close to Bai Xiuxiu's flawless face, his breath caressing her cheek and neck, taking in the scent of her body. Perhaps because she had just transformed, Bai Xiuxiu's fragrance was particularly rich and sweet.
"How would I know? Whatever Master says, goes," Bai Xiuxiu said with her face blushing.
"There are two options," Xu Ran said with a smile.
"What options?" Bai Xiuxiu blinked her blue eyes, brimming with tenderness. Seeing Xu Ran's gaze fixed on her body, she couldn't help but thrust out her full chest even more, accentuating her figure.
A pair of long legs stood straight, and her bare, unshod feet twisted together coyly,
"One is to ride in the sea, not on land. The other is to ride on land, not in the sea," Xu Ran said cheerfully, eyeing Bai Xiuxiu's figure.
Not wearing shoes is the best, those little feet could keep one entertained for years!
"Ah? But on land, I…" Bai Xiuxiu was startled, starting to explain, but she instantly understood something when she saw Xu Ran's half-smiling face.
On land, as a shark, she certainly wouldn't be able to move if she didn't Transform!
She was an ocean soul beast, not a land soul beast.
Could Xu Ran mean that, on land, she should transform into a human...
Bai Xiuxiu's cheeks turned as red as if she were drunk, overwhelmingly embarrassed.
"Master, you're teasing me. You mean that, don't think I don't know," Bai Xiuxiu scolded shily, giving Xu Ran a charming glare. Her face burning hot.
Before, it was only her speculation, but now it had become reality.
But...
Was she really content to just be a mount?
Was she really content to just be Xu Ran's servant?
Xu Ran was so outstanding, and to watch him slip away from her hands while she could only serve him, watching him live happily ever after with his confidante. Was that the life she wanted?
Bai Xiuxiu bit her teeth lightly, but how could she, a girl, say such things?
Should she just accept directly and choose the second option?
How shameful that would be!
"You've already called me master, so you are mine. Whenever I want you, you must give yourself to me," Xu Ran whispered in Bai Xiuxiu's ear.
"But, I only agreed to be your mount before, I didn't agree to anything else," Bai Xiuxiu said, gazing at Xu Ran's handsome face, lost in thought.
"I've changed my mind now. And being a mount doesn't mean just one thing. What I meant was... something else," Xu Ran said quietly.
Bai Xiuxiu felt so shy that she wished she could crawl into a hole and hide.
She hadn't expected Xu Ran to really think that way.
When Xu Ran first wanted to make her his mount, was this what he thought?
"Then who do you plan to find in the clan to be another Devil Soul Great White Shark?" Bai Xiuxiu's face flushed red as she stared at Xu Ran. She was curious as to who had caught Xu Ran's eye.
"There's no one else. I've thought about it, and I only fancy you. I don't like the others," Xu Ran said seriously.
"Really?" Bai Xiuxiu looked at Xu Ran with surprise.
"Of course it's true. In the Devil Soul Great White Shark clan, only you are beautiful and have decent strength, others are far behind," Xu Ran pulled Bai Xiuxiu into his arms to hold her, feeling her soft and boneless body.
"Good to know," Bai Xiuxiu spoke softly, with some coyness, gently lying in Xu Ran's arms.
Xu Ran had already established a relationship with little white, so naturally, he didn't need to use any tricks on little white anymore.
As for telling Bai Xiuxiu about his relationship with little white, he wouldn't do so for the time being, so as to avoid any adverse reaction from her.
However, little white had told him that such situations were very common in the Deep Sea, and even if he told Bai Xiuxiu, she wouldn't say anything. Instead, she would be surprised.
The concepts of soul beasts differed from humans, and the notions of terrestrial creatures varied from those in the ocean.
One couldn't always apply the moral standards of the human world to gauge other species.
...
After Bai Xiuxiu had Transformed, Xu Ran did not linger. He took Bai Xiuxiu and little white with him towards the Devil Whale Sea Area.
There, it was the territory of the Deepsea Devil Whale King.
The Cultivation Level of the Deepsea Devil Whale King had already reached a million years, but sadly, in this era, even if a soul beast reached a million years in Cultivation Level, becoming a god was not an easy task. Human Gods controlled the paths and rules to godhood, and it was impossible to become a god through mere Cultivation alone.
If the Deepsea Devil Whale King wished to become a god, swallowing the Sea God was more like it.
Xu Ran originally did not want to kill the Deepsea Devil Whale King. This soul beast had no enmity with him, and he did not need this kind of Soul Ring. However, the wife and daughter of the Deepsea Devil Whale King were both extremely beautiful.
He naturally developed thoughts similar to those of Cao Zei.
Pah! What an animal!
