The Chaos Dragon Prince

Listening to Wang, all sorts of thoughts flashed within Amber's mind. 

Begdurlingly, she can admit that she has knowledge on who Wang usually associates himself with. Given their status connection, it would be impossible to avoid him and his associates.

And just thinking about this person put Amber a bit on edge. Even for all her laziness, she couldn't suppress an innate dislike towards this person. 

Amber suddenly asked, "This person you want to introduce….don't tell me it's her?"

"Of course, it's her. No, it just has to be her. You know how much of a charismatic, attention-getter she is." As Wang spoke, his brows nearly tightened.

The tension radiating off from Amber partially drilled into Wang's body. In this moment, Wang unexpectedly felt a slight bout of pressure just from Amber's presence.

This was undoubtedly strange. 

Amber may have reached late-stage Profound Soul, but her Aura shouldn't be anywhere close to threatening.

As strange as this slight pressure was, Wang didn't put too much thought into it. He simply wrote it off as Amber's bloodline tensely stimulating, causing her superior bloodline Aura to accidentally gush out. Nothing really to worry about at all. 

Before anyone could notice his slight shift, Wang cleared away all doubts in his mind and turned his attention back on Cain. 

He smiled, explaining to him, "You see Sir Cain, the person we're referring to is another genius in our Family. Her name is Gao, and she is the most popular of our generation. Not because of her strength. But because of her incredibly charming abilities. With her, we can spread the fame of our duel even faster and have it reach the farthest corner of the City."

"Charming abilities? Is this a cultivation method or something innate to your bloodline?" Cain curiously asked. 

"Oh no, this is all a part of our innate bloodline abilities. The thing is, even within our Family, we have specific variations that set us apart. Such as with Amber, her bloodline variation has the purest quality, greatly enhancing her strength. She awoke the Shadow Element alignment within our bloodline. As for Gao, she awoke the illusion, mystic abilities. Her combat strength may not be the highest, but she certainly fiercely shake up anyone's Mental Psyche."

As he listened, Cain was becoming increasingly surprised. So there are so many specialties of a quality bloodline! 

They may be a far lower rank bloodline, but having various variations was undoubtedly worth looking into.

Of course, this could also correlate to his own Dragon God bloodline. Given that he's the direct grandson of the Ancient Dragon Emperor, Cain assumes he must have some slumbering Daconinc ability waiting to be awakened.

If he could awaken such abilities, his already monstrous combat strength would enhance even more. And it was never bad to have additional multipliers. 

Still, to satisfy his new curiosity, Cain asked, "Your Vampiric bloodline is quite special. If you don't mind me asking, just how many variations do you all have? And what about other bloodline Families? Are they the same?"

"Mn. These two don't have as much experience as I do, so I'll properly explain." Joy promptly cut in. 

She didn't want any further relations to develop between Wang and Elder Bai than what's necessary. If so, she knows that troublesome situations will inevitably arise. 

"In terms of variations abilities, we have around 10 slumbering within our bloodline. Typically, even for the most powerful among us, our bloodline only allows us to awaken one of those abilities. The potential power within each variation ability is far too potent, and awakening more than one can cause more damage to our bodies than good. But of course, our little Amber awoke the strongest of all variation abilities, the Shadow Element. As for that little girl Gao….her variation abilities isn't too high."

The smugness and pride smoldering within Joy's voice nearly formed an Aura itself. This went even beyond the ordinary pride mortals would have for their offspring.

It stemmed from the depths of her Martial Heart! Even with Amber's complete unwillingness to seriously cultivate, Joy's pride in Amber transcended into the realm of deep soul feelings.

Feelings that far surpassed all physical means of relations. With all this pride, it wasn't any wondered that Joy's tone nearly had disdain when she referred to Gao.

To her, they simply couldn't be compared at all. 

But when Elder Bai and Wang listened to this slight disrespect, their expressions just slightly cracked. With a trained eye, one can see both of their smiles tightened as if they were experiencing a slight mental strain.

Cain was sure to take notice of this. But he didn't bother with them anymore as he asked, "If that's so, then what about the other bloodline Families?" 

"Others Families….no mistaking it, they too have specific variation abilities within their bloodline. The difference is, our is dozens of times more potent. And we have a higher number of variations. We're not known as the summit of all High-Class Family without any reason, you know."

Joy proudly boasted. Her expression even shifted to an alluring prideful look, causing her to look like a queen making judgments on her subject. 

At that moment, Cain finally realized where the difference between parent and child comes in.

Even if Amber is somewhat proud, Cain rarely, if ever, heard her boast about her own abilities. In a way, Amber's laziness makes her humble. At the very least, she couldn't fathom the energy to be incredibly boastful.

"Well then, I believe we discussed all that's needed, right?" Amiel suddenly clapped his hands, gaining everyone's attention. 

Gesturing to the front door, Amiel smiling told Elder Bai and Wang,

"You can have your meeting later when Gao returns from her trip. For now, we would like to go back talking with each other." 

Neither Elder Bai nor Wang showed any discontentment. The slight strain Joy caused them quickly vanished.

"We as well have unfinished business to attend to. Farewell for now." After Elder Bai spoke, he and Wang promptly left the Villa.

The instance they set foot out the Vilia, Joy slammed the door while exhaling a slight breath of relief. All of her slight tension instantly vanished. 

"Tsk. At least it couldn't go worse." Joy muttered under her breath.

And now that the annoyances were finally gone, Joy's expression returned languidly. A soft smile curled her beautiful lips as she said, 

"But it mainly went so well thanks to you, Cain. Martial strength, World Spirit Master, and a smooth talker! Ah, really, no wonder you made little Amber fall so quickly."

"Anyways!" 

Amber surprisingly shouted, promptly turning attention away from her mother. 

Clearing her throat, Amber's expression turned slightly solemn as she said, "I know what you're doing, Cain. Honestly, even if I were to Soul Transform, you would put me to rest easily. But, when meeting with Gao, you must be careful with her. Even firm Martial Hearts, just like your crazy self, falters against her charm abilities."

"Little Amber's concerns aren't unfounded, Cain. That little Gao is certainly a troublesome one. In the ranking, her charming ability isn't the highest of variations. But, I can admit she expertly cultivated to a proficient degree. Believe it or not, she can actually persuade some of the Elders to favor her side." Joy also relayed her experience. 

In direct contrast to the girl's concerns, Amiel faintly smiled, saying, "You two are slightly exaggerating her. If one's Martial Heart is just averagely standard, her charms abilities will do wonders. But, I can see it in Cain's eyes. He won't be affected at all by her."

"Right, now I'm a bit more curious to meet her.  In any case, when he does contact me, where should we meet? I think it would be best to do it here." Cain suggested. 

And Joy immediately nodded. "Of course, it will be held here. On our turf, nobody can summon any courage to be the slightest daring. I won't be able to rest well if you go into their turf unsupervised."

With the way Joy spoke, Cain began to believe there was an actual threat slumbering around the estate. 

Instead of treating it lightly, Cain thoughtfully regarded it. He has confidence in his protection. But towards anything that seems slightly odd, he will investigate it. 

He then asked, "Senior Joy, I know with my status, I wouldn't encounter that much danger on where I go. But I also know I can't predict everything. Is there something specific I need to know about either Wang, Elder Bai, or Gao than what I already know?"

"This….let's just say they are really good at winning the hearts of the masses. Even with you, they most likely won't stop until you're completely on their side. Of course, they wouldn't dare to harm a hair on your head. But they could attempt to perform some troublesome little scheme that would try and shift your opinion about us."

Listening to this, Cain relaxed just a little bit. If it's mental manipulation, he doubts anyone here can affect a Soul at the Spirit Soul level. It's why he wasn't worried in the slightest about Gao's so-called charming abilities.

With his confidence surging again, Cain smiling said, "You don't have to worry about this Senior Joy. I'm not the one to be easily swayed by flowery words. But let's get off this topic for now. I was having a good time talking before all of this happened."

"Oh, of course! I have many more funny little stories to share." 

Joy was the first to lounge back on the couch, her expression slightly eager. Amiel was quick to join right after his wife, his lips curling in amusement.

"Haaah~." Amber resigned herself to fate, pulling Cain along as she slowly strolled back to the large couch. 

Soon enough, the young and older couple continued their lively discussion.
