Chapter 847: Enhancing the Cultivation Level of the Women - Part 1

"Those who participated in this matter, those who should be killed have been killed, and by now they should not dare to defy you. I will fetch Dugu Bo later to help you," Xu Ran said as he tousled Xue Ke's hair.

Xue Ke was the Empress of the Tiandou Empire; he did not want to get too involved in the affairs of Tiandou, else it might seem like he was with Xue Ke purely because of the Empire.

Worldly kingdoms held truly no interest for him.

In a place like the Divine Realm, he truly desired to rule, to bestow godhood upon his women in the future. But in a country like the Tiandou Empire, the sovereign might seem noble, yet he could take the life of anyone on the Soul Land Continent if he so wished.

As for beauties.

Almost all the women on the entire Continent whom he deemed worthy were already his. As for the others, he didn't even hold them in regard.

"Leave the rest to me. It's not like I can't handle anything," Xue Ke said with a hint of pride. Seeing those haughty individuals bowing and scraping before Xu Ran, Xue Ke couldn't help but laugh.

They were all influential figures in the Tiandou Empire.

In the past, even when they saw her as a Princess, they could not be disrespectful.

And now, because of Xu Ran, they were all frightened of her too.

"Hmm. But I still want to get Dugu Bo to protect your safety. Otherwise, I won't be at ease," Xu Ran said indulgently as he pinched Xue Ke's delicate nose.

"Once we've dealt with the Empire's affairs, let's have a child. Then we can leave the Empire to the child to manage, and we'll go out and travel," Xu Ran said as he stroked Xue Ke's flat belly, thinking of some fun things to do.

Being an Empress is great.

He loved to play…

"Oh," Xue Ke said, looking at Xu Ran with a hint of shyness, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

She naturally understood what Xu Ran meant.

"When I've sorted everything out, I'll accompany you," Xue Ke said shyly to Xu Ran.

"That works. If anyone bullies you, just tell me," Xu Ran said as he glanced around.

Everyone around them lowered their heads in fear.

The next day, the news of Xue Ke becoming the Empress of the Tiandou Empire spread throughout the entire Tiandou Empire.

Everyone could smell the scent of blood.

They knew that Xue Ke was Xu Ran's woman.

Now that Xue Ke had become the Empress, it was also the general consensus.

Of course, what made people happiest was that with Xu Ran's protection, no one dared to make a move against the Tiandou Empire anymore.

"Have you heard? The relationship between Empress Xue Ke and Xu Ran is quite special. Empress Xue Ke was able to become the monarch of the Empire with Xu Ran's help and encouragement," someone said.

"With Xu Ran here, it seems unlikely that anyone would dare to invade our Empire now," another one added.

"You don't know the half of it. Xu Ran is from the Zhu Clan of the Xingluo Empire, and his fiancée is also a young miss from the Zhu Clan. Xu Ran also holds great prestige in the Xingluo Empire. Now that both grand Empires are connected to Xu Ran, it is highly likely that they will return to peace and avoid any war," someone else informed.

"And what about Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, Liu Erlong from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Tianshui College..."

In a teahouse, many people were discussing this, all very excited.

The thought of Xu Ran having so many stunning wives made them drool with envy.

Any one of these women was enough to topple kingdoms and was peerlessly beautiful.

Yet all these people were Xu Ran's wives.

Who wouldn't be envious?

Just one glance at such women, and they would lie awake all night.

If they could hold them in their arms and do joyful things every day, wouldn't they be on cloud nine?

Just the thought of it got them all excited.

However, such good fortune would never fall on them; it was only someone like Xu Ran, a peerless strong man, who had the chance to capture their hearts.

What's more, they were very concerned about the identities of Xu Ran's women; these were ladies from major powers. If they were with Xu Ran, would the grievances between those powers dissolve?

Especially these days, there were rumors that Xu Ran had a very deep relationship with the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall...

At this moment, they were no longer jealous; they even hoped that the rumors were true and that Xu Ran would really win over the Female Pope.

In that way, the world would be at peace.

After all, such peerless women weren't likely to favor them anyway; rather than letting someone else win them over, they preferred that the man to do so was Xu Ran. As a peerless strong man, it wouldn't bother them if he did.

While outsiders were discussing fervently, Xu Ran was very calm.

He gathered all the women together.

"Xu Ran, why did you call us all here?" Ning Rongrong and the others curiously looked at Xu Ran. With so many people around, Xu Ran couldn't possibly be planning anything naughty, could he?

Could so many people really be keen to come over?

Xiaowu and Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xu Ran suspiciously.

They couldn't be blamed for their wild thoughts; after all, Xu Ran had a history.

Liu Erlong and the others blushed as they looked at Xu Ran.

"What are you thinking? Am I that kind of person?" Xu Ran said somewhat helplessly.

"I've called you here to enhance your 'Cultivation Levels'. Your cultivation is too slow," Xu Ran scanned the 'Cultivation Levels' of all the women. Xiaowu, Zhu Qing, Rongrong and the others were all at the Soul King level. Tang Yuehua was a Soul Elder, Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu were also Soul Kings, while Shui Yue'er and Bai Chenxiang were still Soul Ancestors. Only Liu Erlong had a slightly higher cultivation, having broken through to the level of a Soul Douluo.

But in Xu Ran's eyes, this level of cultivation was still insufficient.

The women, upon hearing Xu Ran's words, couldn't help but purse their lips.

Their 'Cultivation Levels' were actually increasing incredibly fast. With Xu Ran's help, their cultivation speed was much faster than ordinary people's. Normally, it would take a genius until at least the age of twenty-five to reach the Soul King level through regular cultivation.

However, Xu Ran naturally wouldn't allow his women to be the same as ordinary people.

Even if it meant spending Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, he was determined to enhance their 'Cultivation Levels'.

"These are two powerful whale soul beast pearls containing tremendous power. If you refine the power of these whale pearls, your 'Cultivation Levels' will increase rapidly," Xu Ran said, as he activated the whale pearls with his Soul Power, and the vast, ocean-like energy began to slowly emanate.

In the room, the natural forces became extremely dense, condensing into a liquid state.

These were the whale pearls of the evil killer whale king and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.

Most of the mighty power of these two powerful soul beasts was contained within the pearls, and absorbing them would greatly assist Xiaowu and the others in their cultivation.

"Whale pearls?" Little White and the others recognized them, and their eyes heated with excitement. Such treasures were of great use to them as well.

"Those of you with high 'Cultivation Levels' should refine less," Xu Ran said impatiently.

Little White and the others were at higher cultivations, and if they kept refining, there would be less for Xiaowu and the others to absorb.

"Oh, got it," Little White and the others gave Xu Ran a mournful glance, as though complaining he was playing favorites. Even if Xu Ran hadn't mentioned it, they wouldn't have absorbed the energy from the whale pearls; with Xiaowu and the others' 'Cultivation Levels' still so low, it would be too thoughtless of them to do so. They were, in fact, still trying to ingratiate themselves with Zhu Qing and Xiaowu, who had been with Xu Ran from the beginning.
