Rebellious Lord of All Realms: Su Chen's Dark Harem

Volcanic Dragon Blood Tempering Dragon BodyWhen Ah Yin and Su Chen returned from the Spring of Life, the camp was already shrouded in twilight. By the campfire, Zi Yan was puffing out her cheeks while munching on spirit power bread. Seeing Su Chen return, she immediately dropped the bread and pounced over, her small claws tightly hugging his arm: ”Brother Su Chen! You were out with Sister Ah Yin for so long, did you secretly buy her candy again? I want some too!”

Su Chen smiled and pulled a translucent Dragon Crystal Candy from his storage spirit tool, stuffing it into her mouth: ”All you think about is eating. What, seeing Xun’er and Ah Yin both get stronger, are you getting anxious too?”

Zi Yan sucked on the candy, her eyes shining like stars as she nodded vigorously: ”Mm! My Dragon Power hasn’t fully awakened yet. I heard there’s Ancient Dragon Blood in the volcano deep within the Star Dou Secret Realm, and drinking it will allow me to evolve into a dragon form! Brother Su Chen, will you accompany me, please?” She tugged at Su Chen’s sleeve coquettishly, her dragon tribe’s unique soft voice making it impossible to refuse. ”I promise, after I evolve, I’ll definitely be able to protect you and won’t just ask for candy anymore!”

”Alright, I’ll go with you.” Su Chen rubbed the top of her fluffy head and turned to instruct the Sisters, ”I’m taking Zi Yan to the volcanic area to find dragon blood. You all stay in the camp to rest and reorganize. We’ll handle Karin’s Blood Contract enhancement once we return. Zhu Zhuqing and Hanabi, continue to keep an eye on the Spirit Hall’s movements.”

”Lord Su Chen! Then come back quickly!” Karin pouted, her eyes full of anticipation. ”I can’t wait to enhance the Blood Contract!”

Xiao Xun Er raised her hand and injected a wisp of God Defying Phoenix Flame into the campfire, causing the flames to surge instantly: ”The energy in the volcanic area is violent. Brother Su Chen, if you encounter danger, remember to use the Phoenix Flame signal, and we will support you immediately.”

Su Chen nodded in agreement, took Zi Yan’s hand, and transformed into a streak of light, racing toward the volcanic group in the deepest part of the Star Dou Secret Realm.

The volcanic area was shrouded in smoke all year round, with dark red lava flowing down the mountainside. The air was filled with the pungent smell of sulfur. Only a volcanic crater in the center, which erupted intermittently, vaguely emitted a faint Dragon Might—that was where the scent of the Ancient Dragon Blood was located.

”It’s right there!” Zi Yan’s dragon lineage was instantly activated. Her small face was full of excitement, and she broke free from Su Chen’s hand to rush toward the crater: ”Brother Su Chen, I can smell the dragon blood!”

”Slow down, be careful of danger.” Su Chen followed quickly, his black-gold God-Defying Power forming a protective shield around her to block the scorching air currents. ”The energy of dragon blood is overbearing. I’ll help guide you later; don’t absorb it blindly.”

At the bottom of the crater, a pool of dark red water bubbled; it was the Dragon Blood Spring, which condensed the essence of the ancient dragon tribe. Zi Yan pounced to the edge of the spring, but just as she was about to touch it, she was shaken back half a step by a violent Dragon Might, her small face turning pale instantly: ”Such a strong aura...”

Su Chen walked to her side, his palm resting on her back as God-Defying Power slowly poured in: ”Don’t be afraid, I’m here. Circulate your Dragon Tribe spirit power and follow my energy’s guidance to slowly absorb the dragon blood energy.”

Zi Yan nodded and sat cross-legged. Her Dragon Tribe spirit power flowed with Su Chen’s palm, slowly injecting into the Dragon Blood Spring. The dark red dragon blood boiled instantly, transforming into streaks of blood-red energy threads that surged into her body through her meridians. As the energy deepened, Zi Yan’s body began to tremble violently, and a faint luster of dragon scales appeared around her. Her small face was full of pain and persistence: ”Brother Su Chen... it’s so hot... it feels like a fire is burning...”

” Bear it for a while， Dragon blood is tempering your dragon bones.” Su Chen leaned in close, his forehead against hers, his warm breath brushing against her cheek. ”Think about how you’ll be able to transform into a powerful dragon form and protect me later. Just hold on a bit longer.” His God-Defying Power became increasingly pure, like a gentle stream, helping her organize the violent dragon blood energy. ”When the evolution is complete, I’ll buy you a whole cart of Dragon Crystal Candy for you to eat your fill.”

”Really?” Zi Yan’s eyes lit up, and the pain seemed to lessen quite a bit. She gripped Su Chen’s hand tightly, her nails almost sinking into his skin: ”Brother Su Chen, you have to keep your word!”

”Of course I’ll keep my word.” Su Chen smiled and nodded, his fingertips gently wiping away the tear marks at the corners of her eyes. ”My little Zi Yan is the bravest.”

Just as Zi Yan’s dragon blood evolution was nearing completion, a piercing laugh suddenly came from the crater: ”I didn’t expect to encounter a dragon descendant here! This dragon blood and the little dragon girl are both items in the Supreme Pontiff’s pocket!”

Five Spirit Masters from the Spirit Hall dove down from the crater. Leading them was a Dragon-type Spirit Saint, his eyes greedily staring at Zi Yan and the Dragon Blood Spring: ”A dragon lineage plus Ancient Dragon Blood—as long as we take them back to the Spirit Hall, we can definitely cultivate the strongest dragon-type combat power! Su Chen, if you’re smart, hand over the little dragon girl and the dragon blood, and I’ll spare your life!”

”You dare target my people? You’re looking for death!” Su Chen’s eyes turned cold, and his God-Defying Power surged, instantly shielding Zi Yan behind him. ”Zi Yan, concentrate on your evolution. Leave these scumbags to me!”

”No!” Zi Yan suddenly opened her eyes, the luster of the dragon scales around her body exploding. A dark red dragon tail abruptly whipped out from behind her: ”Brother Su Chen, I’ll help you!” Her body grew rapidly, dragon scales covered her entire body, and a pair of dragon horns pierced the sky as she transformed into a small but fierce Scarlet Gold Dragon Form, pouncing toward the Dragon-type Spirit Saint: ”No one is allowed to bully Brother Su Chen!”

After completing her evolution, although Zi Yan’s Dragon Might was not as strong as an ancient dragon’s, it carried the enhancement of God-Defying Power. Her dragon claws tore through the air, heading straight for the Spirit Saint’s face. The Dragon-type Spirit Saint was caught off guard, his shoulder slashed by the dragon claws, and he cried out in alarm: ”This is impossible! How can a little dragon girl who just evolved have such strong power?”

”Because she is mine!” Su Chen’s figure flashed, his God-Defying Power condensing into a fist, forming a pincer attack with Zi Yan. ”Zi Yan, use Dragon Flame!”

”Okay!” Zi Yan looked up and spat out a blast of dark red Dragon Flame, which intertwined with Su Chen’s God-Defying Power, instantly incinerating two Spirit Hall Spirit Masters. Although her dragon form was small, her movements were exceptionally agile. With a sweep of her dragon tail, she sent two more Spirit Masters flying, who crashed heavily against the volcanic rock wall and lost their breath.

Seeing this, the only remaining Dragon-type Spirit Saint was scared out of his wits and turned to flee. ”Trying to run?” Zi Yan’s dragon pupils turned cold, and her dragon tail wrapped around his ankle, pulling him back violently. Su Chen took the opportunity to smash his fist into the man’s spirit power core, completely ending his life.

After the battle ended, Zi Yan’s dragon form gradually shrank and she changed back into human form, though her dragon horns and tail were not yet fully retracted. Her face was flushed as she pounced into Su Chen’s arms: ”Brother Su Chen, I did it! I evolved into a dragon form! I can protect you now!”

Su Chen hugged her soft body and smiled as he touched her dragon horns: ”My little Zi Yan is the best; you’ve really grown up.” He took a handful of Dragon Crystal Candy from his storage spirit tool and stuffed them into her hand. ”A reward for you, as promised.”

Zi Yan joyfully peeled the candy wrapper and sucked on the candy, her dragon tail gently wrapping around Su Chen’s waist as she rubbed her cheek against his chest coquettishly: ”Brother Su Chen, from now on, I won’t just eat lots of candy, I’ll also become stronger and always protect you, never letting anyone bully you!”

”Alright, I’ll be waiting.” Su Chen lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, his black-gold eyes full of doting affection.

The Dragon Blood Spring in the crater was still boiling, the dark red dragon blood emitting pure energy. Su Chen held Zi Yan’s hand and returned to the camp through the twilight—this dragon blood evolution not only caused Zi Yan’s strength to soar but also made the bond between the two of them even deeper amidst her charming coquettishness and firm protection of her master.
