Chapter 167 - Chapter 168: Asha Ruiya

He had just arrived in Venice, and this woman had already found him.

Without even thinking, she must have been following the China National Team's movements for a long time to find him at the first opportunity.

Upon reaching the lounge, Jiang Yuan said, "Sit down. Tell me what you want to talk about. My time is precious, and even if you're a beauty, you can't waste my time."

Asha Ruiya smiled and said, "Captain Jiang is truly indifferent to women. Can't someone like me make you spend a little more time?"

"Someone like you..." Jiang Yuan looked Asha Ruiya up and down. Her figure was indeed very graceful, and the nobility of a Goddess Candidate made her seem pure and inviolable.

Such a woman would give men a strong sense of conquest.

"Then I'll give you three more minutes," Jiang Yuan said seriously.

"..."

"Do you know the most powerful creatures in this world?" Asha Ruiya directly steered the conversation to her objective.

"I know. Our Kunlun Nine-Tailed Fox, totem Sacred Beasts, Ancient King, Pharaoh Khufu, Sahara Emperor, Antarctic Emperor, Ocean God Clan Emperor, Dark King..."

Jiang Yuan rattled off a string of Emperor-level creatures.

"Indeed, you are a mage who pursues powerful strength. Most people wouldn't know about so many Emperor-level creatures; their existence is a secret to ordinary mages," Asha Ruiya said with a smile.

There were even some Emperor-level creatures whose existence she was unaware of.

"Pursuing powerful strength—you're right. I do pursue powerful strength. Only by being strong enough can I prevent tragedy from befalling me and make everything go my way," Jiang Yuan nodded faintly, agreeing with Asha Ruiya's statement.

"Then, would you like to personally witness one of the most powerful Emperors in the world?" Asha Ruiya asked.

At this point, Jiang Yuan already knew what Asha Ruiya wanted to do.

It should be related to the Black Dragon Emperor.

The Black Dragon Emperor's strength among Emperor-level beings was decent, but he was still far inferior to the Ancient King.

However, he was an Emperor-level existence, which would be a powerful aid for him to achieve the unique position of Underworld King.

Jiang Yuan had also considered bringing the Black Dragon Emperor under his command, but that would definitely be him going alone to "communicate" with the Black Dragon Emperor, without anyone else accompanying him.

Tyrant Mountain was not far from Venice; it wouldn't take long to get there. It was a good opportunity to go and see it during this free time.

Therefore, Asha Ruiya's idea was destined to fail.

"No, I don't want to see him," Jiang Yuan shook his head decisively.

"Really? To be honest, I'm going to take you to see a true dragon!" Asha Ruiya was caught off guard.

Logically speaking, shouldn't a mage who pursues powerful strength be eager to see even greater power?

According to the intelligence gathered, Jiang Yuan's strength was so great that he could kill the Dark Sword Master. She had deep connections with the Dark Plane and was very clear about the Dark Sword Master's power.

Furthermore, the intelligence only stated that Jiang Yuan had some close relationships with a few women, with hardly any rumors, and spent most of his time cultivating and meditating.

He could be said to be a typical mage who pursued power.

How could such a mage not want to personally witness the last Dark True Dragon in the world?

No matter what Asha Ruiya thought, she would never know that Jiang Yuan already possessed immense power, even higher than the Black Dragon Emperor's level, commanding an undead empire!

"A true dragon, no, I don't want to see it," Jiang Yuan shook his head again, making a move to get up and leave.

"That's the ancient European overlord, a Dark True Dragon with pure giant dragon bloodline, and the only living true dragon in the world! Do you really not want to see it?" Asha Ruiya emphasized each word.

"If that's all you're here for, there's no need to find me," Jiang Yuan said.

"Alright, I didn't expect you to be uninterested in the Black Dragon Emperor." Asha Ruiya sighed, then continued, "What about a top-tier Thunder Domain Soul Seed? Even if you're not a Thunder mage, you could trade it for the resources you need. A Soul Seed worth over a billion, are you interested?"

"A Soul Seed won't do. If it were a Heavenly Seed, I'd consider it. A Soul Seed is just not worth much," Jiang Yuan said.

"Even a top-tier Soul Seed can't move Captain Jiang's heart? You truly are a heartless man." Asha Ruiya put on a pitiful expression, as if tears were welling up in her eyes.

This trick didn't work on Jiang Yuan. He had already activated his overclocked state and wouldn't feel even a trace of desire for any woman!

Seeing Jiang Yuan's lack of reaction, Asha Ruiya suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Do you not like women?"

What was that called in China?

The love of Long Yang?

Yes, men who liked men were called the love of Long Yang!

Jiang Yuan's face darkened, and he said fiercely, "If you keep thinking nonsense, I'll throw you into the cheapest brothel!"

Asha Ruiya stuck out her tongue: "Who told you not to be interested in me? With such a beautiful woman standing in front of you, and you have no reaction at all, shouldn't I be thinking nonsense?"

"Alright, I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'm going to continue exploring Venice," Jiang Yuan waved his hand and stood up.

"Don't rush off. Didn't you want news about a Heavenly Seed? I remember you're a Water System mage, and I actually do know about a Water System Heavenly Seed," Asha Ruiya said.

Jiang Yuan immediately turned back upon hearing this.

"Oh? Now you've got my interest. Tell me about this Water System Heavenly Seed."

After Little Yunmeng ascended to the Monarch-level, she would naturally possess a Water System Heavenly Seed—Yunmeng Heavenly Water.

Jiang Yuan himself could absorb another Water System Heavenly Seed. At that time, with Little Yunmeng possessing him, he would have two Water System Heavenly Seeds!

The most crucial point was that elemental seeds were a mage's own power. Even if their magic soul was stripped by the Holy City, they could still control elements through the elemental seeds.

The Holy City could indeed strip mages of their magic souls, causing them to lose their magical power.

However, they could not strip Black Magic, whose power source was the Dark Plane.

Therefore, when Jiang Yuan fought with the Holy City, his magic systems other than Black Magic would be of little help.

So, he planned to awaken the Black Magic system after reaching Super-Level.

Jiang Yuan also felt that it would be better to use the convenience of his identity as the Underworld King to first take down the Dark Plane, and then deal with the Holy City, which would give him more confidence.

Getting back to the topic, the perspective returned to the lounge.

"I know the burial ground of a powerful ocean creature, where a Water System Heavenly Seed is very likely to appear," Asha Ruiya said.

"Where?"

"The Bermuda Triangle."

"..."

This was pure nonsense.

Jiang Yuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Alright, our conversation ends here. We'll talk next time if anything comes up. Goodbye."

With that, Jiang Yuan left without any hesitation, disappearing from the lounge so quickly that Asha Ruiya didn't even have time to stop him.

"Damn man, next time I'll throw you into a brothel full of men!" Asha Ruiya gritted her teeth.
