Chapter 140: Wang Qiuer's Complaint
Within the Plane Origin Sea, a tranquil stream of multicolored light flowed, illuminating the illusory spiritual projections of Lei Chen and Gu Yuena standing opposite each other.
After Gu Yuena decided to bring Wang Qiuer into the Dragon Valley Small World next, Lei Chen immediately sprang into action.
Without another word, a slight stir in his thoughts set the authority of the Plane Master into motion, silently bridging the distance across space.
He merely raised his hand and gave a gentle wave at the void beside him. A soft ripple of space undulated, and in the next moment, a tall, slender figure with dazzling golden hair appeared within this vast Sea of Origin.
It was precisely Wang Qiuer, who had just been in deep meditation within the depths of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Suddenly transported from the side of the spring where scorching heat and extreme cold interwove to this mysterious space brimming with endless laws and origin energy, Wang Qiuer's long golden eyelashes fluttered slightly as she slowly opened her eyes. A fleeting trace of bewilderment flashed in her gaze, but it was instantly replaced by clarity and sharpness.
Unlike Zhang Lexuan, who had been abruptly summoned to the dimensional space layer before, Wang Qiuer did not display any tension or wariness.
She was merely momentarily stunned. The domineering aura of her Golden Dragon Martial Soul naturally circulated around her, allowing her to quickly adapt to the drastic environmental change. She knew very well that within this plane, the only one capable of moving her from deep meditation to this place so silently was that unfathomable Plane Master.
Her gaze first fell upon Lei Chen, who wore a faint smile. Just as she was about to speak, the corner of her eye caught sight of the nearby spiritual projection—a wisp of pure silver radiance condensed into the outline of a peerlessly beautiful woman.
For some reason, the moment she saw this spiritual projection, an indescribable sense of familiarity and kinship inexplicably welled up in Wang Qiuer's heart, as if something deep within her bloodline had been gently stirred. This compelled her to take a few extra glances at the silver illusory figure.
Nevertheless, she first suppressed the peculiar feeling in her heart, turned to Lei Chen, gave a slight bow, and spoke in a crisp voice tinged with the pride and directness unique to dragonkind: "Senior, is there something you need, to summon me so suddenly?"
Her molten-gold eyes held more curiosity than doubt.
Seeing her poised and forthright demeanor, the smile on Lei Chen's face deepened a few degrees. However, he did not directly state the reason for summoning her. Instead, like an elder concerned for a junior, he asked gently, "Qiuer, how have you felt these few years after taking human form? Have you adapted well?"
Mentioning this, a bright light instantly shone in Wang Qiuer's beautiful golden eyes. She straightened her posture, her tone carrying a hint of pride: "It feels great! Much more interesting than staying in the Star Dou Great Forest!"
She paused briefly before continuing, "Especially the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. It's truly a treasure trove for cultivation. I've been cultivating there frequently these past few years, and my Soul Power has improved tremendously!"
She indeed had the capital to be proud. Relying on the innate talent and foundation bestowed upon her as the Imperial Auspicious Beast, coupled with the starting point of over level 50 Soul Power upon taking human form, and the assistance of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—a place favored by heaven and earth—her growth speed could be described as terrifying.
"When I first took human form, my Soul Power was roughly equivalent to a level 50-something Spirit King," Wang Qiuer recalled, extending her slender fingers to gesture slightly. "As for now... I've already broken through to level 82! And..."
A sharp golden glint flashed in her eyes. The aura around her flared for an instant before being withdrawn, a pure and domineering draconic pressure quietly spreading. Although it was instantly neutralized by the plane's aura naturally emanating from Lei Chen, the sense of power it conveyed was undeniable.
"And my Golden Dragon Martial Soul is strong! Extremely strong!" Wang Qiuer stated with conviction. "Even though my Soul Power is only level 82, if we really fought, I don't think those Super Douluo who often come to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for body tempering would necessarily be my match!"
Her words were not born of blind confidence. The Golden Dragon King Martial Soul, bestowed upon her by the Golden Dragon King's origin, possessed immense strength and defense. Its quality even surpassed top-tier dragon-type Martial Souls like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, making it the foremost top-tier beast Martial Soul for assault in the current world, arguably without equal.
Coupled with Wang Qiuer's formidable physique, tempered by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, challenging those above her level was indeed no difficult feat for her.
Lei Chen naturally understood her situation thoroughly. Yet, hearing the young girl recount it herself with a somewhat boastful tone, he still nodded in agreement, his eyes holding approval as he offered encouragement: "Not bad. To make such significant progress in just three short years is truly remarkable."
However, upon hearing Lei Chen's praise, Wang Qiuer did not show delight. Instead, as if suddenly remembering something, her spirited eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her rosy lips unconsciously pouted. She looked at Lei Chen with a mix of coquettish complaint and dissatisfaction, grumbling:
"Senior! And you're praising me! That's not fair of you!"
"Oh?" Lei Chen raised an eyebrow, revealing a somewhat amused smile. "How am I not fair?"
"Didn't you tell me before!" Wang Qiuer's tone carried an accusatory note. "You said that as long as I was willing to take human form, with my talent and accumulation, I would definitely surpass that old fellow Di Tian within ten years! I believed you then, which is why I chose to take human form, and I've been cultivating so diligently ever since!"
She counted on her fingers: "Look, Di Tian may have over 800,000 years of cultivation, and at full power, he's only equivalent to a demigod level. I've only been cultivating for two or three years, and I can already rival Super Douluo! At this rate, give me a few more years, and catching up to or even surpassing him would have been absolutely guaranteed!"
The more Wang Qiuer spoke, the more "wronged" she felt, her large golden eyes glaring at Lei Chen: "But! Senior, did you forget after the battle with that Abyss Plane, during the distribution of rewards? You gave that old fellow Di Tian such a pure energy sphere! After absorbing that, he's bound to break through the bottleneck of a million years of cultivation!"
She seemed to already envision Di Tian's power skyrocketing after his breakthrough. Her little face fell, her tone growing even more discontent: "Once he breaks through, who knows how much his strength will soar! Here I am, cultivating painstakingly, about to catch up, and then you turn around and give him such a massive boost!"
"This... this is just like a race. I'm about to reach the finish line, and you go and install a Soul Propulsion Engine on the opponent ahead of me! How am I supposed to overtake him like that! Senior, your approach is really unfair!"
The young girl stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at Lei Chen with puffed-up cheeks. Her appearance was exactly like a child who felt her trust had been "betrayed" by an elder, causing the quietly observing spiritual projection of Gu Yuena beside them to ripple slightly, as if revealing an extremely faint hint of a smile.
