Hearing that Marcia wanted to have private talk with her, Ana had a bitter smile and shrugged. She turned around and had a look at the crowd that stared at her and Marcia. They were gossiping about them. She didn't seem to care as she strutted away with Marcia.

The crowd didn't know the truth and obviously thought there was something special relationship between them.

' the officials asked, completely baffled.

Just as the officials, Mia was at a loss and shook her head blankly.

Ana followed Marcia. She was anxious as Marcia had been silent all the way. She seemed to be lost in her own thoughts. Unable to tolerate the silence, Ana walked a few steps forward. She could not stop herself and asked,' Excuse me! Marcia, why were you looking for me?'

' If I tell you that I want to kill you, so that you keep your mouth shut forever and also to prevent the revelation of my secret, how would you react?' Marcia asked jokingly. She turned around and steered her attention to Ana. However, from the serious look on her face, Ana felt that she was not joking at all.

' I've kept my mouth shut and never told anyone your secret!' Ana protested and looked completely innocent.

Marcia squinted at Ana coldly. All of a sudden the glint in her eyes disappeared.

' Well, before you kill me, please take this ', Ana added at once. Calmly she took out two bottles of magical saliva from the pocket inside her robe and handed them to Marcia.

' What is inside the bottles?' Marcia seemed to know the answer, yet she feigned ignorance and asked Ana.

answered Ana honestly.

Ana's words made Marcia 's heart pound like a drum. She had come to find Ana as she was determined to kill her. She clearly told Ana what she wanted to do. But neither was Ana afraid nor worried for her life. Rather she was offering her two bottles of miracle liquid, she had been always longing for. She felt that she was wrong.

She also had a deep understanding of the magical effect of the miracle liquid.

Even a single drop of such a liquid would have an amazing effects, and here Ana was ready to give away two bottles to her. Based on her judgement, if Ana sold a bottle of the miracle liquid, she could definitely get rich. It would be right to say that Ana was being too generous to her.

‘ Don't hold the thought that I wouldn't kill you after you offer me those two bottles of miracle liquid’, Marcia warned coldly.

‘ Come with me’, Ana said simply. It seemed as if she was not taking

Marcia 's warning seriously. After finishing her words, she turned around abruptly and walked towards the yard where she was living.

Seeing Ana's back, Marcia couldn't help but clench her fist. If she wanted to kill Ana. She just had to wave her hand gently, and Ana would be dead meat. But somehow something in her just couldn't kill Ana.

Perhaps it was the first time in Marcia 's life that she felt most helpless. When she could easily kill a person, she hesitated for a long time and gave it so much thought. It was definitely not her style.

‘ Damn it!’ Marcia glared at Ana's back and swore coldly.

‘ Where are we going?’ Marcia asked in a cold voice after catching up with Ana.

‘ There's a little guy who is eager to see you ’ , Ana said and beamed.

‘ Do you mean your war beast?’ Marcia couldn't help thinking of the lovely war beast that followed Ana last time.

Ana didn't reply but simply took Marcia to her room where her war beast was kept. As soon as the door of her room was opened, a shadow of the beast sprang out, not towards Ana, but towards Marcia. It was Ana's war beast, Ananta.

Howl! Ana saw Ananta get infront of Marcia, winked it's two big eyes, stared at Marcia and shook it's head, looking a little excited. Apparently, it recognised Marcia.

When Marcia saw Ananta, she was quite stunned by its size and asked in surprise,‘ Is it the little guy I saw last time? Why it has grown to such a big beast, and it's power has leapt from one star to three star? Could it be because you fed it the whole yellow spiritual crystal?’

Ana didn't deny the fact and nodded.

‘ Are you out of your mind? How could you feed the entire yellow spiritual crystal to a war beast that hasn't reached the level of one star? Do you want to kill it?’ Marcia snarled. She was really mad at Ana as Ananta could have died after taking the yellow spiritual crystal.

‘ Don't worry! Ananta is quite healthy now!’ Ana spoke in a surprised tone. She never expected Marcia to actually care for Ananta this much. She seemed to be quite fond of Ananta.

‘ It is also my fault. I should have told you how to use the yellow spiritual crystal correctly. Luckily, it is fine now, otherwise....’ Marcia hesitated to complete the sentence.

‘ I admit that I shouldn't have done that mistake and I won't use any excuse to cover up my mistake . But you see, the result is good. Thanks to your spiritual crystal, Ananta has been able to grow bigger and powerful. And for this I am sure, my war beast would like to thank you personally ’, Ana told to Marcia and yelled out to Ananta,‘ Ananta, she is your benefactor! You should express your appreciation to her now!’

As soon as Ana finished speaking. Ananta seemed to have understood her words. At once, it jumped up and leaned against Marcia. It stuck out it's tongue and began licking Marcia 's face.

‘ No...! Stop licking me! Stop that!’ Marcia was bewildered and at a loss by such a sudden and enthusiastic form of appreciation. Moreover, she was tickled, so she kept chuckling which slowly turned into a carefree laughter.

At that moment, Marcia was so happy, completely different from her apathy a moment ago. To Ana, her smile was like spring flowers and flowing water, so natural that it warmed her heart.

The scene infront of Ana was like a real life version of beauty and the beast. She held her hands infront of her chest and watched the scene with great interest.

After Marcia patted the excited Ananta, she immediately glared at Ana and scolded,‘ You did it on purpose, right? So, you can have a good laugh at me! Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?’

‘ If you wanted to kill me, you could have done it long time ago. Based on your high rank, you need a simple excuse to kill me. Nobody would dare to say anything about it. Yet, since you didn't kill me earlier. I don't think you'll kill me after seeing my lovely Ananta’ Ana replied with a calm face.

Marcia was taken aback by Ana's words, but she kept herself calm. She never thought that Ana could analyse her mind so thoroughly and correctly.

After a few blinks of her beautiful eyes, Marcia seemed to have made up her mind about something.

Ana saw her use her spiritual power to open the magic spiritual space. At once, she took a brownish red round bead out of it and slowly spoke,‘ This spiritual power gathering crystal can be used to absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth. This, when it's used for cultivation, you get two fold improvement in your cultivation with only half the effort’ saying so, she handed over the spiritual power gathering crystal to Ana.

Realising that Marcia didn't kill her but offered her an extremely precious treasure, Ana raised her eyebrows and took it without any hesitation.

‘ And these three yellow spiritual crystal are for the small... No, I should say, it is for the big guy now...’ Marcia continued as she smiled looking towards Ananta.

‘ All right’, Ana replied lightly and took them as well. Despite the surprise, confusion and the mix of emotions she felt inside, she looked rather calm outside.

‘ Well, there is one more thing...’ Marcia thought for a while and asked,‘Tell me, what's the nature of your dragon spiritual power?’
