Chapter 3626
The First Heir
âThis is unfair. I wonât accept this! Why? To gain more power, I endured humiliation and suffered so
much!â
Hearing the professorâs words, Rowan said, âIf others are better than you, it can only mean that they
paid a higher price.â
As Rowan spoke, the green threads of life essence wrapped around the professor.
The professorâs body was cut to pieces by the green threads of life essence.
Seeing this scene, the professor had already given up. He knew that he had no chance, and his body
returned to normal size. However, his face was full of indignity.
âOthers paid a higher price? For the merfolk, I turned myself into this monster today, but I never saw
the slightest hint of ambition from them. Is that my fault too?â
At the professorâs question, Rowan said, âOf course, itâs your fault. The merfolk never shared your
ambition from the beginning.â
After saying this, Rowan tied the professor with the green silk threads.
In a few seconds, the professor was gone. After he died, a stiff octopus carcass fell to the sand in the
water.
Seeing this, the spirit bodies rushed forward.
This surprised Rowan very much because the spirits were not trying to take over the octopusâ body but
injecting part of their energy into the carcass instead.
âWhat are you guys doing?â Rowan asked, frowning.
The old man among the spirits smiled at Rowan and said, âWeâre leaving a seed for you in the ancient
ruins, of course.â
âA seed?â Rowan was even more puzzled.
At this moment, all the spirits smiled at Rowan from the bottom of their hearts.
âTo tell you the truth, the underwater ancient ruins havenât been occupied by other underwater
creatures for such a long time because of our existence!â
The old man had just finished speaking when another spirit emerged from the crowd.
âWe have been looking for a suitable successor for the underground ancient ruins. Today, we found
one, and itâs you!â
As they injected their power into the octopus carcass, the stiff body became soft and took root in the
underwater sand like a plant.
It grew into a red spider lily.
Rowan glanced at it and found this scene to be somewhat familiar. In his memory, this flower was said
to grow in the netherworld.
Looking at the blooming flower, all the spirits said with satisfaction, âFinally, weâve fulfilled the wish of
the mighty being and planted a red spider lily in the ancient ruins.â
That mighty beingâs wish?
Rowanâs eyes lit up.
âThat mighty being youâre talking aboutâ¦â
However, before Rowan could finish asking, all the spirits entered the flower and disappeared before
Rowanâs eyes.
Rowan sighed. If he had asked the question when he saw the red spider lily, he would have gotten the
answer by now.
He was too late.
For a red spider lily to bloom here, it meant that the person who left the ancient ruins behind had a
close relationship with the world he came from.
