Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

"Heehee. Yu Er, why hasn't Xu Ran given you..." Xue Ni blinked her large eyes and asked with a smiling face. She could see that her best friend had already set her heart on Xu Ran.

But such an outstanding man indeed was irresistible to any girl.

Even she would be tempted by him, let alone others.

With so many girls coming from Canaan Academy, which one could say she didn't like Xu Ran? Even if it was Tutor Ruolin, didn't she have the slightest bit of affection for him?

They were girls, naturally holding certain advantages over men.

As long as their other half was outstanding, they too could soar high and live a life unlike any other.

"Xiao Yu and Xu Ran don't have anything..." Xiao Yu bit her teeth lightly, though her relationship with Xu Ran was delicate, nothing definite had been expressed. Even though Xu Ran mentioned something before, she had not seized the opportunity then.

"Then, Yu Er, you need to seize the time. Otherwise, once Xu Ran leaves, it will be very difficult to see him again. With how outstanding Xu Ran is, who knows how many Fox Charmers are eyeing him. If you don't act quickly, there will be plenty of others who will," Xue Ni said with a laugh, holding Xiao Yu's hand as she spoke earnestly.

"Does that include you too?" Xiao Yu quirked her lips.

She of course understood this principle.

But she was a girl; how could she have the nerve to take the initiative to talk to Xu Ran about these matters?

Why didn't Xu Ran stay last night?

If Xu Ran was just a bit more assertive, perhaps...

Xiao Yu let her thoughts run wild, imagining if something had actually happened last night, at most she would've feigned a shy struggle before not refusing any longer.

Her thoughts now were completely different from before.

"Yu Er, I don't want to lie to you. If Xu Ran were willing, I definitely wouldn't hesitate," Xue Ni stated bluntly.

"Xu Ran really is... even you have fallen under his spell. I wonder what expressions the people from Canaan Academy would wear if they knew about your change of heart," Xiao Yu chuckled.

The contrast inherent in Xue Ni was enough to make one marvel in amazement.

It appeared that not all those with unconventional thoughts were completely insane; maybe they just hadn't met someone sufficiently outstanding.

If they did, they might be even more proactive than the average girl!

"Yu Er, don't talk nonsense. You better not tell Xu Ran about my past, or how will I face anyone in the future?" A rare blush appeared on Xue Ni's pretty face.

Xu Ran was a boy; if he knew about her past, he might have a bad impression of her.

Now she truly realized how ridiculous she had been before. Perhaps what she had been pursuing was just a sense of thrill, a freshness unlike what others had.

"Rest assured. Xu Ran is not so unapproachable. You're so beautiful; if he knew you were interested in him, who knows how happy he'd be," Xiao Yu said leisurely.

...

Mittel Auction House.

The entire auction house was now in chaos.

The oppressive might of a Douhuang (Battle Emperor) Strong One made it difficult for everyone to even raise their heads.

All were in terror, for they had never encountered such a high-level expert. What business did such a distinguished person have with them?

However, what they couldn't have imagined was that their own lady, who wasn't highly talented in cultivation, was indeed the exalted expert they feared.

Now that Ya Fei's "Cultivation Level" had stabilized at the Dou Huang Pinnacle, it could not rise any further.

This top-quality Fighting Emperor Pill could only enhance Ya Fei's strength to such an extent.

At the Dou Huang Pinnacle, she was equivalent to Medusa's "Cultivation Level," and even Yun Yun couldn't compare to her now. However, Ya Fei currently had the "Cultivation Level" but had not yet elevated her combat skills. And to "Cultivate" a powerful Earth Rank Combat Skill or even a mystery rank one required a considerable amount of "Time."

But with her increased strength, Ya Fei's comprehension abilities would also greatly improve, which meant "Cultivating" combat skills wouldn't be too difficult.

With Xu Ran's help, naturally, he would not allow any issues with Ya Fei's "Cultivation."

"I..."

Gradually, Ya Fei slowly opened her beautiful eyes.

"I've really broken through, my 'Cultivation Level'..."

Ya Fei slowly channeled her Dou Qi, and a terrifying torrent of it surged out, the might of a Dou Huang truly beginning to bloom at this moment.

"Xu Ran, I'm really a Douhuang now," Ya Fei said with excitement she could hardly conceal. She ran straight over to Xu Ran and threw herself into his arms.

She still couldn't completely control her Dou Qi, and the combat skills she was "Cultivating" were still only of the Huang Rank, without even reaching "High-Order Combat Techniques." But now, she had truly become a bona fide Douhuang (Battle Emperor).

She was as overjoyed as a child at this moment.

It all felt like a dream.

There was a time when becoming a Great Fighter was her greatest aspiration in life. She even believed that she might not even break through to become a Dou Shi.

But now, she had far surpassed her former dreams.

And all of this was because of Xu Ran!

Without Xu Ran, she would still be nothing now.

Without Xu Ran, she would still be the weak girl with the appalling talent for "Cultivation" who could only help manage the Mitter Family's businesses, perhaps even facing an arranged marriage to someone she didn't like.

The arrival of Xu Ran changed her fate, allowing her to taste a different kind of life.

"Yes, you are now a Douhuang (Battle Emperor) Strong One. And not just any Douhuang, but at the Dou Huang Pinnacle, there are not many in the entire Jia Ma Empire who are stronger than you," Xu Ran said with a smile.

"All of this is because of you. Without you, I could never have "Cultivated" to become a Douhuang in my life," Ya Fei said, her eyes full of tenderness. Such a man, even if he took everything from her, she would willingly give it all. She was only afraid that she had too little to offer and would owe Xu Ran.

"Silly girl. You're my woman now. There's no need for us to keep such careful accounts between us. As long as you're happy, I'll do anything without a moment's hesitation," Xu Ran said, wrapping his arms around Ya Fei's slender waist and greedily inhaling the fragrance of her body.

Ya Fei was his, was there any need to count these things? Ya Fei couldn't escape the palm of his hand anyways.

"Are you planning to stay at the auction house after this? With your current strength, there's absolutely no need to toil over these affairs anymore."

"I don't know, all of this feels like a dream. But even if I become stronger, I don't want to leave. I'm here waiting for you," Ya Fei said with watery eyes.

This place was where she and Xu Ran first met, and she was somewhat reluctant to leave it.

And as long as she was here, Xu Ran would always come back to find her.

She also didn't know where she should go. Follow Xu Ran? She feared that would only hold him back.

"That's fine too. I've created a few combat skills these past few days that should be fairly decent. You can take them to "Cultivate." I also have these elixirs; their quality is not bad. You can take them to the auction, it'll be beneficial for your work," Xu Ran said, as he flicked his fingers and a series of Spiritual Light entered Ya Fei's mind.
