Chapter 396: Chapter 391: Blood Qi Lingers Chapter 396: Chapter 391: Blood Qi Lingers “Swoosh!” The sound of metal weapon tearing through flesh and bones echoed, light gold blood sprayed out.

Muria, somewhat startled, watched the scene unfold before him. Remilia, petite and dressed in a princess dress, with a soft and adorable appearance, held a scarlet lance, piercing Yingdila who was even smaller than her.

The dominating and fierce spearhead protruded from Yingdila’s back, light gold blood dripped off the triangular spearhead. The striking contrast between the robust spearhead and Yingdila’s seemingly delicate, small body carried an aesthetic of the brutal destruction of beauty.

Unfortunately, what would be an instantly fatal wound for mortals did not cause any expression of pain on Yingdila’s face. She merely furrowed her eyebrows slightly and restored her composed face and then looked at Muria, “She attacked me! I can strike back, right?”

“Wait…” This sudden change left Muria slightly surprised. Upon hearing Yingdila’s question posed in a statement tone, Muria’s instinct told him to stop it. In Muria’s view, Remilia was merely a petite, physically weak, young loli.

Yet just as Muria was about to voice his objection, Yingdila, who was pierced through her body, took action. She made no unnecessary movements. Her small palm clenched into a fist, and she threw a punch at Remilia.

Even when she transformed into a human form like Muria, with most of her power unable to exert, Yingdila still possessed substantial strength. She threw a punch with her strong physique, causing a punch blast.

“Boom!” The air exploded, making a thunderous noise. The punch blast visible to the naked eye blasted Remilia’s abdomen, unsurprisingly, this princess who hadn’t reached the age of ten, was blown away immediately.

The lush flower bush was gorged out a long mark by Remilia. Every fallen grass and broken branches along the way led her into a palace. The sounds of shattered giant rocks echoed, followed by clouds of dust.

“Yingdila, who allowed you to strike?” Everything happened too quickly for Muria to interrupt. Looking at the palace where half of it was collapsed due to Remilia’s collision, Muria angrily yelled at Yingdila.

“She attacked me first.” Yingdila, who was pierced by the Divine Spear Gungnir, plaintively explained.

“A spear stabbed by her is nothing to you, but can she withstand your punch?”

“Yes.” Yingdila answered in a definitive tone.

“…” Muria was slightly silent, then he turned to look at the half-collapsed palace caused by Remilia. There was an increasingly strong and peculiar life-forces, familiar yet alien.

“Stand right there, I will deal with you soon.” Muria glared at Yingdila, then walked towards the direction of where Princess Remilia was fell.

It was evident that the princess had undergone unknown changes. The changes should have taken place while she was traveling with Belradin, thus Muria was completely unaware.

When he first came here and saw Remilia, she did not have this level of physical build. If the princess from back then was hit by Yingdila’s punch, Muria would have been preparing her funeral alongside King Belradin by now.

“Boom!” The scarlet vital energy emanated from the place where Remilia fell, debris spurted out. Under Muria’s somewhat serious gaze, Remilia, wrapped in the vital energy, rose into the air. A pair of wings, even more giant than herself, spread out behind her, emanating a sense of seductive charm.

“Blood clan?” Muria’s face instantly turned pale. The heir to a human kingdom had become a dark race. Although it did not occur under his supervision, it was clearly a situation that only emerged after his arrival.

“Swoosh!” Remilia, with a pair of gigantic black wings spread behind her, reached out. The divine spear Gungnir, which was embedded in Yingdila’s body, instantly flew out and landed in her hand. She then pointed it towards Muria.

“You still want to take actions against me?” Seeing the Gungnir pointed at him, especially the lance tip stained with light gold blood, Muria’s face turned even darker.

Hearing Muria’s question, Remilia, whose original blue eyes had turned into a stunning red resembling two transparent gemstones, quickly shook her head and put down the Divine Spear Gungnir in her hand.

Seeing this, Muria felt a little better. He then turned his head towards the giant guards who were attracted by the commotion here and ordered, “Everyone back off! Without my orders, none of you are allowed to come near.”

Upon hearing Muria’s familiar voice, the giants scattered. As long as it was His Majesty’s orders, they could ignore whatever happened inside. No matter what happens, they would act as if they saw nothing.

“Remilia, come here, tell me how you ended up like this?” Muria tried to soften his voice and make his face look pleasant. He then forced a smile.

“Why have I become like this?” Remilia, somewhat puzzled, looked down at herself. Unconsciously, the movement of her wings caught her attention. Only then did she notice that she had an additional pair of giant wings.

“These are my wings?” After a moment of panic, Remilia calmed down immediately. She even stretched out her hand to touch the wings she never had before.

Seeing Remilia’s confused expression, Muria suddenly felt a headache. It seemed like she didn’t even know why she had transformed into her current state.

“Did you encounter any strange beings while traveling with your father?” When direct questioning turned out unfruitful, Muria had to try another way, “For example, similar to the person in black robe just now, only we two could see him, others can’t.”

“Yes.” Remilia thought for a moment and gave out an unexpected answer, “I remember one night, I saw a beautiful older sister on my father’s ship. But besides me, my father and the other guards couldn’t see her.”

“Another Planar Merchant.” Muria’s face darkened. He continued, “What did the older sister do to you?”

“Brother Muria, the older sister was very kind to me. Everyday, she would give me red, gem-like candies to eat. They were beautiful and sweet, the best candies I ever ate.”

“Alright, I see.” Muria said with a smile, he walked over to Remilia, affectionately stroked her still light blue hair that reached her shoulders,
“How did the older sister who fed you candies look? Can you describe her in detail to Brother Muria? If Brother ever has a chance to meet this older sister, he will ‘thoroughly’ thank her.”

“Really?” Remilia looked naive, she is still too young, she was not being cultivated as a royal heir after all.

“Of course.”
