Chapter 1148: Chapter 166: Heart Light Body! Still at a very high level of completion! (5600)_2

Moreover, if Ian feels it’s necessary, he will certainly say—if even the Prophet said so, what about other matters?

And… there’s a deeper reason.

Yisen Gard and Master Gossay, Anfa and Sio, they were never from the same camp. They only gathered together because of Ian, familiarizing themselves with each other through this banquet—what united them in cooperation was merely their trust and optimism in Ian.

“You must compete, and there’s a great chance you’ll have to vie with others—in this scenario, Ian’s identity is a definite mistake, whereas Mahdi can divert attention instead.”

At this moment, the old man nodded slowly: “I understand, I will cooperate with you.”

Ian bowed deeply: “Thank you for your understanding, Master.”

“But Ian.”

Master Gossay placed his hand on the Silent Voice Ring and solemnly advised before canceling it: “Even if you are the Prophet, capable of seeing all signs, you must always remember to protect yourself well.”

“You have embarked on the path of changing the world, the path of a dream I’ve yet to complete—do not halt halfway.”

“I will.”

Ian murmured softly: “I will keep it in mind—the reason a path is a path, and a Dao is a Dao, is because it’s not meant for just one person to walk upon, nor is it built solely for oneself. My progress is not merely for myself but for all who support and believe in me.”

“I am to guide the way forward, the one to blaze new trails.”

At that moment, atop Ian’s head, a faint azure Star Crown appeared.

The Heart Light Body “Star of Guidance” subtly manifested; it flashed briefly, yet its unique, unmistakable presence was acutely felt by all, akin to the sudden radiance of the sun piercing through the clouds.

Then, sheer astonishment!

“The Heart Light Body!”

Yisen Gard immediately sensed this peculiar presence, standing abruptly, eyes locked onto Ian’s forehead, where traces of azure Spirit Energy stars still shone: “And at such a high level of completion!”

—Stronger than my Heart Light Body?!

Anfa reacted similarly, though she didn’t stand up immediately; instead, she leaned forward with both hands on the tablecloth, nearly tipping over the wine glass before her.

The Elf Girl’s shock was indescribable to others; her essence had already reached the Third Energy Level—a miracle created by the fusion of Dragon Soul Dragon Blood and the Ashlight Family’s inheritance. Despite her firm beliefs, her dreams remained unclear, causing her Heart Light Body to remain somewhat intangible, requiring ample mental preparation and quiet contemplation before proper use, unlike Ian’s effortless manifestation.

As for Sio, she had anticipated this but was nonetheless slightly surprised: “Wow, in just a few months, Ian’s progress has been astounding!”

However, beyond this, she didn’t think of anything else, simply continuing to eat.

Master Gravie?

Master Gravie had seen Ian single-handedly eliminate Three Kingdom spies less than a week ago and was only curious about the capabilities of Ian’s Heart Light Body.

“You…”

Master Gossay felt similarly, and after the initial brief shock and awe, he quickly sensed that Ian’s Heart Light Body didn’t seem to be directly combat-oriented—but he wasn’t disappointed; on the contrary, he was filled with anticipation: “It’s so seamless… Indeed, Ian, you are truly the disciple of those two great figures!”

Exhaling deeply, Master Gossay canceled his Silent Voice Ring.

He turned to Ian, and to everyone present: “In two days, the Exotic Species Research Institute Exploration Team will gather for the first time to head to Half Moon Lake.”

“Yisen Gard and I will initially accompany the Setar Empire’s team, but later we will separate and join you. Prince Carlos agreed to this, provided he wants to meet Ian—tomorrow, I will take you to see the Prince. Miss Anfa, Prince Carlos has entrusted me to deliver greetings from the Empire; we trust that the collaboration between the Southern Ridge Worship Dragon Sect and Canaan Moore Worship Dragon Sect symbolizes the friendship between the Empire and Canaan Moore.”

“Naturally.”

Now speaking diplomatically, Anfa slightly restrained her previous display of emotion, responding earnestly: “May the friendship between the two nations endure, and the Ashlight Family’s bond be unbreakable.”

The banquet ended.

Specific cooperation matters and subsequent plans will wait until Ian meets Crown Prince Carlos tomorrow to be decided; Master Gossay left Yisen Gard at the Ashlight Family’s mansion, returning himself to the Empire Embassy on the first floor of World Tree City.

Anfa in her long dress led Yisen Gard to his room, while Ian exchanged a glance with him, indicating he’d join him later for a chat.

Now, Ian and Anfa in her gown arrived at the Ashlight mansion’s hall.

“Bloodline collapse, what exactly is going on?”

Ian asked the question bluntly, recognizing that subtlety would serve no purpose here: “Sio’s problem must be more severe than yours; otherwise, you wouldn’t procrastinate, nor delay returning to the Holy Mountain to resolve it—but your issue also cannot be trivial, or the Blood of the Ten Kings wouldn’t use it against you.”

“Is it that your Dragon Blood and Elven Bloodline cannot fuse, leading to mutation?”
