The Wolf’s Bride

What her hands felt was coldness.

The lamia’s body had already gone stiff, and her tender and smooth skin had become withered and shriveled due to the loss of inner energy…

Many scales had also fallen off starting from her chest.

Martial realm experts relied on pure inner energy to sustain their lives at the final stage of cultivation. If they lost their inner energy, it signified the end of their lives.

The moment that the lamia prepared to pass on her inner energy to Luna, she had already accepted the inevitability of her death.

“Master!” Luna let out a mournful cry, kneeling in front of the lamia.

“Master, you passed on your unique skill and your inner energy to me, but you left so soon before you had the chance to see me display what I learned…”

Tears welled up in Luna’s eyes as she bowed her head and muttered to herself, ” Rest assured, Master. I’ll carry forward the Lamiai clan’s unique technique. I won’t let you down!”

After paying her respects, Luna began to examine her current condition.

Upon inspection, she was overjoyed. She had finally reached the pinnacle of the Martial Saint realm. The abundant inner energy in her body also vastly strengthened her dantian!

According to the previous explanation, she should have reached the second Divine Step!

“I–I…”

Luna was so excited that she was at a loss for words.

As far as she knew, the Insect Ruler was just a Martial Saint. It was still unknown whether he had reached the pinnacle.

As for Andrius, he was only at the early–stage Martial God realm before!

“Hubby, I can finally be of help to you. I won’t be a burden to you anymore!” Luna exclaimed excitedly and hummed. “Halle, you won’t have the chance to catch up to me anymore! Huh?”

Luna suddenly realized something. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The inner energy in her body had not just increased multiplefold.

The power of the demon snake and the Sanguis Blade that had troubled her and changed her temperament had been wiped away by the inner energy that the lamia passed onto her, turning into pure inner energy for her to manipulate.

“Rise!”

Luna became even more excited upon discovering this. She held the Sanguis Blade and tried to bring out its killing intent to its limit, but only felt a slight vibration in her mind. It did not completely control her.

This made Luna even more satisfied. She had made the right choice to venture to Hidden Adeptus Valley and into Tartarus!

“That’s right…” A glint flashed in Luna’s eyes. “What I need to do now is remember the unique technique that Master demonstrated. Forgetting even a fraction of it would be a great loss!”

At that thought, Luna sat down and started to comprehend the technique.

Above the cold pool, Adeptus Cirrus paced back and forth, staring at the pool in a daze.

Behind him was Rufus, who had finally recovered.

“Master…” Rufus also looked at the pool, his expression solemn and full of remorse. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have spoken too much…”

Adeptus Cirrus paused slightly and asked, “Why are you saying that now?” Rufus‘ tone was low and full of self–blame. “She’s the master of the Shrouded Gate. If she dies in the pool, Fleming Manor will suffer the vengeance of the Shrouded Gate. I caused this dangerous situation due to a careless slip of my tongue…

“At that time, I’ll become the sinner of Fleming Manor…”

Adeptus Cirrus could not help but laugh. He shook his head and looked at the calm pool water. “She won’t die. In fact…”

His gaze became profound and distant as he muttered, “The martial world of Florence, and even the world itself, still needs her to create a new order.”
