Chapter 321 Baby, You've Been Naughty Lately_1

```

Xu Ran took Liu Erlong for a walk around the nearby shops, stuffing bags of clothes large and small into her Storage Soul Guidance Device. Mini skirts, shorts, black stockings, fishnet tights, and all kinds of high heels, she bought them all.

In the past, due to Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong had lived a secluded life devoid of desires, dressing simply for years. Now that Xu Ran had arrived, Liu Erlong gradually reverted to her old self and naturally needed to update her wardrobe.

Xu Ran wasn't short on money, Ning Rongrong was a super-rich girl, and he himself was wealthy enough to rival nations, so naturally, he bought everything first for Liu Erlong to try on for him one by one. After all, life is for enjoyment. He didn't cross over to be a workaholic slave to the System; enjoyment was the most important.

"Husband, is your Martial Soul a dragon?" Liu Erlong asked Xu Ran as they sat down on a quiet lawn, leaning against a big tree to enjoy the cool breeze. The gentle wind was refreshing, bringing the scent of fresh grass, a truly pleasant atmosphere.

Liu Erlong, wearing a miniskirt, was sitting on the ground, revealing glimpses of her legs, irresistibly enticing, and despite her desperate attempts to tug at her skirt, the extremely short hem meant sitting on the ground exposed quite a bit.

However, this place was occupied by only Xu Ran and Liu Erlong, so if anything was revealed, only Xu Ran would see.

"No. My Martial Soul is a sword." Xu Ran shook his head; his bloodline had nothing to do with his Martial Soul.

A Martial Soul's strength doesn't lie in its quantity, but in its essence.

Though having multiple Martial Souls has its benefits, such as having nine extra Soul Ring slots available to harness their energy to break through to higher realms.

Xu Ran's cultivation pace was fast, and he didn't need to use such methods to improve his "Cultivation Level."

"Not a Dragon-class Martial Soul, then why..." Liu Erlong looked at Xu Ran curiously, hugging his arm and dutifully massaging his shoulder.

Liu Erlong didn't understand; she could now recall that last night, Xu Ran seemed to exude an aura of the Dragon Clan, which had caused such a significant transformation in her Fire Dragon Spirit.

Not only had the attributes of her Martial Soul changed, but she could feel that her Fire Dragon Spirit had made substantial progress in all other aspects compared to before.

"Your husband is actually a dragon, what need do I have for a Dragon-class Martial Soul?" Xu Ran lounged in Liu Erlong's embrace, inhaling the warm and fragrant scent coming from her. Having been out shopping for quite a while, a fine layer of sweat covered Liu Erlong, devoid of any unpleasant odor, just a thick, warm bodily scent.

Xu Ran's palm was placed on Liu Erlong's beautiful legs, a feeling that was soft but not flabby, truly top-notch.

"Dragon?" Liu Erlong stared at Xu Ran blankly, a torrential wave of shock surging through her heart.

Could it be that Xu Ran was a Soul Beast Transformation?

But that didn't make sense. If Xu Ran had transformed from a soul beast, how could he possess a Sword Martial Spirit instead of a Dragon Spirit?

She understood that soul beasts that reincarnated would have their original forms as their Martial Souls.

Yet, Xu Ran did not possess a Dragon-class Martial Soul but a Sword Martial Spirit.

So if Xu Ran wasn't a reincarnated soul beast, what was going on?

"Your husband is not governed by the laws of this place. I possess both a soul beast's body and a human's body," said Xu Ran. If one really had to classify him by race, he would be considered half Soul Beast Clan, half Human Clan.

"Ah?" Liu Erlong was stunned, the words from Xu Ran clearly exceeding her comprehension.

"Watch closely."

Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Ran revealed his true form. A dragon around thirty feet long appeared in the air, causing the surrounding air to vibrate with booming sounds, terrifying dragon might emanating from Xu Ran's body.

In just an instant, an extremely vast and mighty force enveloped Liu Erlong.

The Ancestral Dragon of ten thousand years granted Xu Ran a combat power that reached the limits attainable by soul masters on the continent. With the Divine Residence out of the picture, Xu Ran was the strongest being around. But for now, he still needed to keep a low profile.

```

The Divine Realm is not friendly to soul beasts; all Divine Beasts are excluded and unable to enter the core of the Divine Realm.

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, a ferocious beast with strength nearing a million years, will never set foot in the realm of the gods. In the end, it even became the stepping stone for the Sea God's Heir. If Xu Ran were to be exposed, with his bloodline strength even more terrifying than that of the Dragon God, the Divine Realm would never allow him to grow.

Haven't you seen Gu Yuena, with the strength of a First-Level God, still hiding in the Lake of Life?

No matter how strong you are in your Soul Beast Form, without the strength of a Divine King, showing off there will only attract suppression from the powerhouses of the Divine Realm.

"So strong," Liu Erlong's eyes widened as she stared at the awe-inspiring dragon before her. Even though Xu Ran's aura was terrifying, Liu Erlong was not the least bit afraid. Because of yesterday's incident, she felt an affinity with Xu Ran in this form.

After all, there's a trace of Ancestral Dragon blood within her veins.

Looking at Xu Ran and feeling that terrifying might, she finally understood why Xu Ran was so powerful, even to a legendary extent.

Because Xu Ran is not meant to be an ordinary person.

Soul beasts cannot cultivate like human Soul Masters; beast Martial Spirit Soul Masters can only temporarily experience the form and strength of a soul beast when they use their Martial Soul True Body after reaching the Soul Sage level. But Xu Ran combined the advantages of both soul beasts and Soul Masters, breaking this rule.

And not only is Xu Ran's Sword Martial Spirit so powerful, but so is his soul beast body...

"Impressive, huh?" Xu Ran reverted back to his human form and said with a smile.

Liu Erlong is now his woman, having taken even that final step. With her personality, she would be devotedly loyal to him for life.

Now, even if he were to be trashy, bad, or hurt her feelings, she would only silently endure it and still stay by his side. But Xu Ran was not the bastard Yu Xiaogang.

He didn't need to scheme against the women by his side.

Wives are there to play with, pshaw, to pamper, aren't they? Why resort to schemes back and forth? After hurting someone and forcefully breaking up, then using psychological tactics to keep someone hanging so that they would marry no one else other than you, isn't that sick?

"Conceited. Not impressive," Liu Erlong pouted, looking at Xu Ran's proud demeanor, she directly spoke up. Before, Xu Ran was the mightiest fighter in the world, and she had to be utterly respectful to him. But now that she's his woman, naturally, she doesn't have to act like before.

She didn't believe that a powerful man like Xu Ran would bully his own woman.

Even if he got tired of her and didn't want her anymore, he surely wouldn't do that.

But what she didn't know was that Xu Ran had many tricks up his sleeve. If things didn't go his way, at night she could only pray for time to pass quickly. Otherwise, that experience could be worse than death.

Especially at times when Xu Ran deliberately toyed with someone's mind without getting on with it quickly, leaving one both embarrassed and frustrated. In the end, when one couldn't endure any longer, they could only beg Xu Ran.

"Hmm? I'm not impressive?" Xu Ran raised an eyebrow, looking at the ravishing woman before him. Especially those swellings at the chest—he thought they were truly superb. He remembered that Liu Erlong's Martial Spirit evolved yesterday, and she had been in a mysterious state, so she didn't know just how impressive he really was.

"I..." Liu Erlong's cheeks heated up as she was looked at with Xu Ran's unabashed gaze, unsure of what to say. As someone new to love, she understood what that look in Xu Ran's eyes meant.

If she dared to say anything more to provoke Xu Ran, perhaps she would be overpowered by Xu Ran right then and there...

Xu Ran was bold and an unrivaled fighter, he could act without any concern. But she couldn't do that—although there were few people around here, there were still people passing by occasionally, and she wouldn't dare...

"Baby, you've been naughty lately," Xu Ran looked up and down Liu Erlong's figure, wrapped his arms around her waist, and held her close.

"I, I haven't," Liu Erlong murmured, flustered by Xu Ran's sudden domineering air.
