Chapter 777 777 Invitation
Song Ningran's current situation was quite peculiar.
Her overall appearance had not changed much, still maintaining her original height and physique, but her features had become more delicate, with a slightly sharper edge to them. Her demeanor now carried an additional touch of lofty nobility, as if she naturally stood above all living beings. She did not seem like a mortal at all.
Yet, in the details, she had undergone significant changes, the most noticeable being her hair, which had once been jet black but was now a pure white. Her skin bore a similar hue, and near the outer corners of her eyes, one could vaguely discern some silver scales.
Above her forehead, she had grown two small, exquisite, silver horn tips about one-third the length of a normal person's thumb, looking like a legendary Dragon Girl or a princess from the sea who had appeared in the mortal world.
Clearly, Song Ningran had awakened the True Dragon bloodline, and it was only the initial awakening of the bloodline's power that had brought about so many changes to her body, strength, and aura. This indicated that both the concentration and essence of her bloodline were extraordinarily high!
However, what was most surprising was not her awakening of the True Dragon bloodline.
After all, her mother, Chen Li, had awakened before her. When Chen Li had transformed into a half-dragon, half-human figure, the changes and the might that had appeared far surpassed the present.
Yet Song Ningran still shocked Chen Li and Song Hua Jun, leaving them with expressions of utter disbelief.
Because, on Song Ningran, who should have been filled with the aura of water and Spiritual Energy, there was a pair of immense wings. Golden Flame Wings had grown out of her back, spreading out to a length of three meters, sufficiently wide to envelop her entire being in an instant.
The wings needed only to tremble slightly for the dense golden feathers to quake and stir up a rolling heatwave, or even a blazing inferno, all in gold!
The power and aura of these flames were frighteningly identical to the Fire of Sun God that had descended earlier. With just a flap of her wings, Song Ningran could call down Divine Fire to burn people to ashes!!
However, it was certain that this power did not come from Chen Li.
Because Chen Li's bloodline was that of a dragon, and in comparison to these Golden Flame Wings imbued with the power of the Fire of Sun God, they were entirely different, practically unrelated.
"Dad, Mom?" Song Ningran, seeing the expressions of her parents, suddenly felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Do I look a bit ugly now? Why do you have such expressions?"
"Ran Ran, you, you've awakened two bloodlines, including the Golden Crow bloodline?" Song Hua Jun's eyes widened as he stared at the Golden Flame Wings behind Song Ningran and said, "That's right, that's right, these are the Golden Flame Wings recorded in the family annals! It's true, they actually exist!!"
He was somewhat excited, his entire body trembling slightly.
But soon, he looked towards Qin Heng with a worried expression and said, "Mr. Qin, now that Ran Ran has awakened two bloodline powers, could there be any problems? After all, one is dragon and the other is Golden Crow, one water, one fire, completely opposite!"
Water and fire are incompatible!
It was a concept so clear that even children understood it. Now, in Song Ningran's body, there were two distinctly opposing powers, one water and one fire; a collision was inevitable!
If the collision inside Song Ningran's body became severe, it would certainly unleash an enormously terrifying energy. Under such an antagonistic runoff of water and fire, the destructive force would be great, extremely dangerous!
If there were no one to watch over her, she would have no way to cope on her own.
"Mr. Qin, Ran Ran now…" Chen Li also caught up with concern, watching Song Ningran's condition and said, "How is Ran Ran doing now, is this considered a successful awakening?"
"She's fine now," Qin Heng spoke, saying indifferently, "I've stimulated the two dormant bloodlines within her body, one being the True Dragon bloodline, the other the Golden Crow bloodline, both originating from the two of you. But don't worry, though these two bloodlines come from different mythical beings and are water and fire, I have ways to balance them out. Water and fire do not necessarily have to clash; they can also complement each other."
For Qin Heng, addressing the matter of water and fire was really too simple. It wasn't even a problem at all. While awakening Song Ningran's bloodlines, he casually used a spell to harmonize the powers of these two bloodlines into one.
The True Dragon and the Golden Crow bloodline powers had completely merged within Song Ningran's body. They would not only avoid conflict but were even capable of converting into each other.
This meant that if Song Ningran wished, she could convert all of her bloodline power entirely into that of the True Dragon or the Golden Crow. Of course, she could also run both simultaneously, possessing the powers of both bloodlines at once, complementing each other.
"But her current look?" Chen Li still bore concern and asked Qin Heng, "Her current appearance is completely different from ordinary people. Can she return to normal?"
"Yes, yes, that's a very important point," Song Hua Jun nodded in agreement, then looked at Qin Heng with an expectant expression and said, "Mr. Qin, she won't always look like this, will she?"
As Song Ningran's parents, they were quite concerned about this. They didn't want Song Ningran to be alienated from the mundane world just yet, as it would deprive her of many joys in life and, at the same time, become even more dangerous. But with Song Ningran's current appearance, it was simply impossible for her to blend into modern society. No matter how much she disguised herself, she could not hide her numerous non-human traits.
"No problem," Qin Heng nodded directly, assuring Song Ningran's parents, "The reason why these strange conditions are appearing is simply because Ran Ran has yet to fully master the power of her bloodline, which is causing her body to involuntarily change."
"Yes, that's right," Song Ningran also nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Qin has already explained to me that as long as I can properly control this power, I'll be able to return to a normal human appearance."
"Is that so..."
"Then that's wonderful, I'm relieved to hear that."
Song Hua Jun and Chen Li both sighed in relief, and their hanging hearts were put at ease.
Then, they bowed deeply to Qin Heng, and if Qin Heng and Song Ningran had not stopped them, they both would have knelt down and said, "Thank you! Thank you so much, we are extremely grateful! From now on, whatever Mr. Qin asks of us, we will do our utmost to comply, even if it means giving our all, we will strive to fulfill it!"
In the eyes of Song Hua Jun and Chen Li, Qin Heng's grace for their family could be said to be like giving them a new lease on life! Making such a promise was not at all excessive.
"Alright," Qin Heng didn't play coy and simply nodded in agreement, then said, "In the next few days, I'll teach her some methods to control the power of her bloodline, and you can learn a bit as well."
Song Hua Jun and Chen Li were overjoyed and became even more respectful towards Qin Heng, who apparently possessed methods to control bloodline powers, seemingly all-knowing!
So strong, so amazing!!
「Three days later.」
Song Ningran had already begun to grasp the methods to refine her own bloodline powers.
However, mastering the bloodline powers of the True Dragon and the Golden Crow was not a task that could be completed in a day; for at least a month to come, she would have to cultivate day and night to possibly hide those non-human parts.
Today, Qin Heng was in the Songs' courtyard, answering some of Song Ningran's doubts about controlling bloodline powers when suddenly he saw a drone fly over!
BOOM! BOOM!!
Among the deafening explosion, there were actually two missiles fired from the drone, targeting Qin Heng and Song Ningran!!
"Child's play!" Qin Heng scoffed.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned the Heavenly Essence, forming a giant hand that covered fifty meters in radius. With a gentle grasp, he crushed the two missiles, preventing even the force of the explosion from leaking out, not even stirring the dust on the ground!
CLANG! CLANG!!
However, after the missiles were crushed, a palm-sized metal plate fell to the ground. Song Ningran looked at it in surprise and said with some astonishment, "It's an invitation, from the Lis and some Shenxiao Sect!?"
"Martial Dao experts are coming to Yu State. As the leading sect among Yu State's five major sects, we, the Shenxiao Sect, must fulfill our duty as hosts. On November 28th, a banquet will be held at the Tianxing Pavilion's Hongmen Building in Jiangbei, Yu State. The Shenxiao Sect, along with the other four sects, and the Lis and other noble families of Yu State, await the honor of your esteemed presence!"
Qin Heng glanced over the content of the invitation, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled, "If you seek your own death, don't blame me!"
