Han Sen had obviously planned this.
Because Han Sen let Nine-Headed Bird strike first, Nine-Headed Bird had a chance of winning. That was why Nine-Headed Bird agreed to the bet. But Han Senâs dragon area defeated Nine-Headed Birdâs first attack, and the moment he stopped attacking was the moment he sealed his loss.
âCan I go now?â Han Sen smiled at Nine-Headed Bird.
âGet lost! Do not let me see you ever again.â Nine-Headed Birdâs face was contorted with anger. Without waiting for Han Sen to respond, he turned and flew away.
Han Sen was surprised. He hadnât expected Nine-Headed Bird to keep his promise, but it was a good thing he had.
The dragon areaâs power came from its connection to water; if Han Sen was sealed inside the Suppress Demon Coffin, he would lose his connection with the sea and get pulled into the demonic abyss.
Unless Han Sen used his super god spirit body, he wouldnât have been able to defeat Nine-Headed Bird.
Without any hesitation, Han Sen flew up into the air and headed back to Half-Star Bay. He didnât say another word to Xius.
If Miss Mirror hadnât left yet, that was where she would be. Too many elites wanted to get their hands on the Ancient God Origin. Staying next to Miss Mirror would be the safest thing for Han Sen, as it would prevent others from trying to take the item away from him.
Although Han Sen could probably escape, Baoâer was still with the Extreme King. So, Han Sen felt obliged to remain.
He flew for a few hundred meters, but suddenly, he felt the crackle of lightning all around him. A giant that looked like either a demon or a god hung there in the clouds. A hand came slapping down towards Han Sen.
The hand slowed down, and the air around Han Sen concentrated until it was as dense as a steel board. Han Sen couldnât tear through the air. He couldnât move his body.
âA deified elite!â Han Sen felt a chill, and he prepared to fight back. Just as he was about to lash out, a sword-light appeared and slashed across the big hand.
âArgh!â The giant in the clouds screamed and pulled his hand back. The god-like eyes looked down to where he had been struck. A beautiful woman holding a copper sword in her hands had emerged.
âMiss Mirror!â Han Sen was so happy.
That giant stared at Miss Mirror, then disappeared. He seemed to be afraid of Miss Mirror, and he obviously didnât want to make an enemy out of her.
âI cannot believe Ancient Water God selected you.â Miss Mirror came before Han Sen and looked at the Ancient God Origin he was holding.
âIsnât that why you brought me here?â Han Sen said.
âI was just here to try my luck. I didnât place any hope in you, so I didnât expect you would succeed,â Miss Mirror said simply.
Han Sen touched his nose and looked at the blood-red sea.
Miss Mirror seemed to know what Han Sen was thinking. In a neutral tone of voice, she said, âExtreme King ships are here. They will take over the planets that were touched by Ancient Water Godâs blood.â
Miss Mirror hadnât come for the Ancient God Origin at all; she just wanted to claim the system that had been flooded with Ancient Water Godâs blood.
After Ancient Water Godâs failure and the subsequent dispersal of his blood, the primitive creatures of these planets would now grow strong. Even barren planets would now flourish because of Ancient Water Godâs lifeblood.
The watery area that came from Ancient Water Godâs blood had an incredible lifeforce. It could grow many scary xenogeneics. This was exactly what the Extreme King needed.
On the flipside, the Ancient God Origin wasnât as important. It could only be used to grow one strong water element elite. It was nothing compared to the value of an entire system.
Han Sen followed Miss Mirror back to the ship, and he saw that the Extreme Kingâs ships were splitting up to guard the individual planets of the system.
Han Sen found the blood kirin was on their ship, and he was surprised that it had sat and waited for him the entire time. It obviously wasnât the mindless beast Han Sen had believed it to be.
When the blood kirin saw Miss Mirror, it looked hostile and scared.
Han Sen could guess why. Ancient Water God had moved Han Sen far away, and the blood kirin wouldnât listen to Miss Mirrorâs commands. She must have used some sort of trick to get the creature onboard a ship.
âThis woman is too tricky. I donât know what she wants. Why didnât she tell anyone else that Iâm not actually Bai Yi?â Han Sen stroked the ring on his finger and thought to himself, âIt most likely has something to do with this ring. But she didnât force me to take the ring off. Why?â
Han Sen didnât understand. He knew he would have to stop thinking about it. He brought out the xenogeneic gene of the Silver-Winged Dragon and swallowed it to refine it.
Duke Gene +1... Duke Gene +1...
The Duke gene announcements kept sounding-off in Han Senâs head. He received ten Duke genes in total.
âIf I can get a few more King class xenogeneic genes, then I wonât have to worry about The Story of Genes.â Han Sen was both happy and worried.
Miss Mirror didnât remain on the planet for long. She had been needed during the takeover, but she wasnât in charge of building up the planet. Her task was finished before most of the Extreme Kingâs ships even arrived.
Han Sen knew Miss Mirror had many elites around her, but they didnât appear in her proximity.
Taking such an important system would be a bloody affair.
The Ancient God wouldnât give up the place easily, so both sides would make sacrifices in the attempt to claim the system. The price would be high whether they succeeded or failed.
After going back to Kingâs Kingdom, Han Sen took the blood kirin with him back to Planet Water Zone. Miss Mirror didnât detain him, and she said nothing more to him. No one else sought to trouble him, either.
That made Han Sen even more worried, though. He didnât know what was going through Miss Mirrorâs head, and he had no idea what her ultimate goal was.
âI can just put Baoâer back in the sanctuaries. That will be safer for both of us,â Han Sen thought in irritation. He would need to take Baoâer back from Lan Haixin.
Before Han Sen could find Lan Haixin, though, she came looking for him. She looked fairly moody, too.
âBai Yi, did you forget something?â Lan Haixin found Han Sen in the garden and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. She didnât say what she wanted explicitly because she was still suspicious about Han Senâs identity.
âLast month, on the ninth. I remember. But Miss Mirror took me somewhere to do something. I had no choice,â Han Sen said with a shrug. He then thought to himself, âIt is fortunate I have Baoâer as a spy.â
âIt is good that you remember. But since we missed it, we must now wait another two months. You better behave over the course of the next two months and stop giving me trouble.â After Lan Haixin spoke, she left. She didnât even spare him a second glance.
