"Almost there," Lu Ran said. "I estimate that in a few days, the Four Great Dragon Gods will descend upon the world."
Hera was about to say sothing when she abruptly coughed loudly. She covered her mouth with her palm, coughing up blood onto her hand.
"Sister Wang———" the Ice Emperor said, his face filled with concern.
"I’m fine."
She looked up again, toward Lu Ran. "Envoy, may I ask then, how will the Creator Gods judge the nations..."
"The ordinary Elental Gods following the ten Elental Sovereigns will likely be directly suppressed."
"As for the ten Elental Sovereigns, they will probably be sealed away to receive their punishnt."
"As for the ordinary beings, whether they participated or not, the Four Great Genesis Dragons will likely bring natural disasters directly upon the nations. Surviving will be a matter of fate." Lu Ran briefly explained what he knew. As for the intention behind these actions, he did not venture to guess.
Seeing the change in Hera’s expression, Lu Ran knew she was worried about such a situation. He waved his hand and said, "I know you’re concerned about the Human Tribe, especially the citizens of the Ice Kingdom."
"I will try to speak well of you in front of the four Divine Dragon Lords when the ti cos. After all, there are heroes like you among the human tribe."
"But..."
"Thank you, Envoy," Hera said as soon as she heard him. "But... what?"
"Sister Wang..." At this ti, the Ice Emperor interjected cautiously: "But there is a cost, Sister Wang. The deal the Envoy made with was that he could rescue you from the God of Ice, but..."
"But what?" Hera disliked hesitations in conversation.
"He wants all of your blood."
Hera: ?
Lu Ran smiled. "That’s right. I’ve recently been nurturing an Elental Pet, a Semi-Legendary Species. I’ve heard that your blood has miraculous effects on nurturing Elental Beings, so I wanted it all."
All of it?
Not a drop, a cup, a bottle, a bucket, but all of it?
"If you can spare the citizens of the Ice Kingdom, and those of the other nations from divine punishnt, what harm is there in taking my blood?" Hera pursed her lips, seemingly unconcerned.
"There’s no need to be so resolute. It’s not like you’ll be drained to death." Lu Ran laughed. "I’m not so Devil, and the bond between you and your brother is strong. Your powers are closely linked. If you run out of blood, we can just draw his blood to transfuse back to you. You won’t die."
"That is a solution," Hera accepted.
To be drained of all one’s blood would cost nearly half a life, but with her brother’s blood to transfuse and recover, though she would be weakened for a while, she would eventually recover.
Ice Emperor: ???
"Very well. Then you all prepare," Lu Ran said, looking into the depths of Hell. "Follow this path, and you should co upon a hospital... ah, a dical hall."
"The physician with red eyes and red wings is waiting for you there."
"Your blood drawing procedure... will be perford by her in full. Do cooperate."
"Oh, right. Over there, I’ve also prepared so blood-enriching food. You can eat more of it. Also, before the blood is drawn, it appears that your wounds are quite severe, Sister. Perhaps the master here can heal you a bit as well."
anwhile, outside.
The God of Ice had recovered, facing the ravaged Ice Kingdom and subordinates whose whereabouts of the Elental Core were unknown. She floated in mid-air, and the temperature within the Ice Kingdom plumted to an unprecedented low, as if the entire nation was frozen.
In her eyes surged an intense blaze of fury and murderous intent, a rage unmatched even when she confronted Hera.
"Hehe......"
Within the Water Country, a young female Spirit shaped like a rmaid, her body composed of blue water streams, peered through a curtain of water from above her own realm, towards the aftermath of the great battle at the Ice Kingdom. After her initial surprise, she chuckled.
Though unclear about the situation, she had never seen the Ice Goddess suffer such a defeat. The several Legendary Level subordinates she had nurtured over countless years were all annihilated.
"As long as she herself is fine, it’s okay. Lower and Middle Legends don’t have the power to change the World Rules. As long as the God of Ice is around, the plan won’t be affected." At this mont, the Water Country Spirit was curious about the origins of that Legendary Necromancer.
To uncover the secrets, she quietly left her own realm to descend upon the Ice Kingdom.
Like the God of Water, the other seven Elental Kingdom’s Upper Legendary sovereigns...
The sequence of events here was too mysterious, the unknown powerful human Lu Ran, unknown Beast Gods, unknown Plant Gods... Regardless, the existence of Lu Ran and his group had already threatened the dominion of the Elental Gods.
From the perspective of Race, it had threatened the Overlord status of the Elental Gods in the world.
The Fire God, the Rock God, the Grass God, the Wind God... one Spirit after another, descended into the territory of the Ice Kingdom.
"Are you here to mock ?" Facing the Spirits from various nations that had arrived, the Ice Goddess spoke with a cold tone.
"Old friends, let’s not be so distant. We’re here to help you." The Water God spoke up. "Where are those guys?"
"Escaped?"
"In which direction?"
In response to the Water God’s questions, the Ice Goddess couldn’t answer. Initially, she could sense their presence, but at so point, she completely lost track of Lu Ran and the others.
"When I arrived, I didn’t detect any abnormalities."
"Neither did I."
"Mm."
All the Elental Gods expressed that they had not detected any trace of Lu Ran, which was bizarre. They were unable to sense even the slightest presence of the others.
"Hehe..." However, faced with this situation, the Ice Goddess’s heart had frosted over. Even if Lu Ran and Hera were capable of escape, she already had counterasures in mind.
