”Hey, even the pubic hair is kind of blue now, hahaha,” Rean commented and laughed as he pointed it out.
A vein popped on Min’s head as he looked at Rean with an angry expression. “Can you not look at the private parts of someone else’s wife?” he asked as he quickly passed a set of new clothes to Erla. Since her transformation was involuntary, the clothes on her body earlier were ripped apart since they could never fit her real form’s size.
As always, a demon beast wouldn’t change into human form already with clothes on. In fact, as a demon beast, Erla truly didn’t care whether others saw her with clothes on or not. The majority of demon beasts didn’t, actually. It’s just that the humanoid races were very adamant about that, so they had to use them when they entered the cities of humanoid races. Kentucky and Celis were very good examples of it, as Rean had to force the two to use clothes when they were in their human form.
Rean nodded in response. “My bad, my bad. Then again, is it just me, or did she become more beautiful now? I kind of like her new appearance.”
Erla was happy to hear that. “Is that so?”
Min only got angrier, though. “Shut up, you two! This is not the time to be talking about such irrelevant things.” Well, he was just annoyed by their sudden intimate interaction.
Rean could only stop there before Min really lost his mind. “Fine, fine…”
Soon after…
*Bang!*
Rean kicked the ‘unconscious’ guy by his side, sending him flying against the wall. “Do you think I can’t tell that you’re awake? Since I’m this good at healing skills, I can obviously tell the difference between someone who’s actually unconscious and someone who’s awake. If you keep pretending for too long, I don’t mind crushing your demon core right here right now.”
Blansin’s eyes immediately opened after hearing that. “Sorry! Please spare me! I’ll do anything. Just don’t destroy my cultivation!” He obviously found out about Rean’s seal around his demon core since he couldn’t use any Divine Energy at all at the moment. He also didn’t doubt that Rean had the ability to really destroy his demon core if he wished.
Erla’s expression changed before she approached Blansin.
*Pah!*
It was then that a resounding slap sound echoed through the entire area. Not that Blansin couldn’t use Divine Energy, one can be sure that it hurt a lot. “You disappointed me, Blansin. I thought our friendship was better than that.”
Rean then held Erla’s hand before she slapped the guy again. “There’s no doubt that what he did was wrong. However, during the entire time, he had a pained expression. At the very least, I can guarantee that he wasn’t doing it because he wanted to. There’s a lot more to this story, so let’s listen. Of course, you can’t forgive him either.”
Blansin then looked at Erla after that. He didn’t feel the least bit angry with what just happened. If anything, he felt relieved since he believed he deserved it. “I’m sorry. Rean’s right. I was forced to do it.”
Erla took a deep breath and nodded in response. “We can talk about our friendship later. First, I have a lot of questions since I’m as lost as anyone else. The first one, what happened to me? Am I not a White Scaled Carp anymore? My real form and even my human one are completely different.”
Erla’s words reminded Rean of something. “Min, you did tell me that the Clendes Heart was created by the Clendes Sea God, right? Could it be that Erla isn’t a White Scaled Carp but from this god’s race?”
Min obviously thought the same thing. “If that’s the case, could it be that Erla is Elder Tuwencio’s daughter?” Tuwencio was the name of Erla’s father.
Erla was obviously shocked by that. “Blansin, is that true?”
Blansin shook his head, though. “Since we already got to this point, I might as well not hide anything anymore. Don’t worry. You’re definitely Elder Tuwencio’s daughter. Not only that, but you were indeed born as a White Scaled Carp.”
Erla sighed in relief after that. “So I’m not something else. I’m still a White Scaled Carp.”
”No.” Blansin shook his head, clarifying, “It’s wrong to call you a White Scaled Carp now. Your true bloodline has just appeared after the Clendes Sea Heart was awakened. You have gone back to the origin of the White Scaled Carp race. Or better yet, you’ve gone back to the starting point. You’re now what we believe to be a Pristine Blue Carp, a Divine Demon Beast of the highest rank.”
”Pristine Blue Carp?” None of them had ever heard about it before.
Blansin continued, “It’s normal that you haven’t heard about it. Only the higher-ups of our Silver Horn Sturgeon race and your White Scaled Carp race know about it. Believe it or not, we are all descendants of this one god. It’s just that our bloodlines have diluted so much these countless years that we lost the status of Divine Fishes. That’s also why both our races have been on friendly terms for so long. We share the same origins.”
Rean immediately thought, ‘If Kentucky or Celis were here, they would have definitely felt the change in her bloodline.’
Erla was obviously even more shocked now.
However, it was Rean that asked the next question. “What do you mean by the highest rank of Divine Demon Beasts? Could it be that demon beasts are like spirits? There are higher-ranked ones and lower-ranked ones?”
Blansin nodded in response. “That’s correct. I don’t know much about other Divine Demon Beasts, but I definitely know that the Pristine Blue Carp is among the top ones.”
Erla couldn’t help but look at herself. “Me, one of the highest-ranked Divine Demon Beasts?” That was obviously hard to believe.
