Chapter 347 - The Return of Emperor Yan
The legendary secrets mentioned by Lu Ran were unknown even to the seventh princess, who hailed from the royal family. She had assumed that the absence of Legendary beastmasters among humans was purely due to a lack of innate potential and the constraints of lifespan.
After all, the longest-lived humans only lasted a few hundred years, which was far too short compared to some Transcendent species.
Now, hearing Lu Ran suggest that humans might have had their potential cursed by Legendary species, the seventh princess suddenly found the idea somewhat plausible.
I’ll consult my father about this after I return.
Lu Ran was flexing his knowledge of secrets in front of the royal family. The more he revealed, the higher their attention toward him would be. Basically, Lu Ran was going all out for a chance to interact with a quasi-Legendary familiar.
As the two conversed, Yan Yingying reported the situation to her father, Yan Feng. Upon hearing it, Yan Feng’s heart sank. He knew that once the royal family witnessed Lu Ran’s talent, they wouldn’t sit still.
“They must not fight! Wait, why did you come back alone? Where are they?” Yan Feng asked urgently.
“Sudden Death King and the seventh princess are waiting for me over there,” Yan Yingying replied.
“How could I have raised such a foolish daughter?” Yan Feng sighed.
You’ve just given them the perfect opportunity to talk privately. If this drags on any longer, they’ll have wrung out every detail about Sudden Death King.
Yan Feng had grasped Lu Ran’s true potential. Not only was he the first bloodline atavist in centuries to reach the same level of Flame Spirit mastery as their ancestor, Yan Sizhen, but he also possessed astonishing culinary talent, having personally nurtured an Intermediate-Overlord dragon king.
