Divine King of Honour-Chapter 438 - Black Jade’s Mischief
Xu Nian was also somewhat surprised at this moment.
He could clearly feel the power of the Dragon Transformation Pond continuously surging into his body.
However, these powers from the Dragon Transformation Pond did not form into Ancestor Vein Power.
Instead, they vanished without reason.
"What's going on?"
Xu Nian was very perplexed in his heart.
How could the power of the Dragon Transformation suddenly rush into his body so quickly, yet he did not form even the slightest bit of Ancestor Vein Power?
"Could it be because of this?"
Thinking of this possibility, Xu Nian hurriedly looked inward to his Dantian.
Indeed, he saw the Black Jade in his Dantian vibrating incessantly, and the Dragon Transformation Power that had flowed in before was all absorbed by it.
"It really is this thing causing trouble," Xu Nian muttered helplessly to himself.
This Black Jade had absorbed all of the Dragon Transformation Power.

As a result, Xu Nian himself was unable to continue absorbing the Dragon Transformation Power.
Even if he could continue the Ancestor Vein Awakening, he had no way to proceed.
Although somewhat regretful, not knowing to what rank he could have awakened to,
at least he had already reached the level of Second Rank, which qualified him to enter the ancestral land.
"Xu Nian, what trick are you playing? Why has all our Dragon Transformation Power been absorbed by you?" Xu Hao could not help but curse in anger.
He had been capable of reaching the level of Second Rank but since all the Ancestor Vein Power had been absorbed by Xu Nian,
he could only remain at the First Rank level.
One should know that Second Rank is fundamentally different from First Rank, relating to one's status within the clan and the qualification to enter the ancestral land.
Now all this had been ruined by Xu Nian.
How could he be reconciled?
The short-tempered girl also furrowed her brows tightly, her gaze towards Xu Nian extremely unfriendly.
"The power of the Dragon Transformation Pond has always been dependent on personal absorption ability. If your abilities are inadequate and all the Dragon Transformation Power is taken by me, are you going to blame me?" Xu Nian opened his eyes, responding with a cold laugh.
Although he was also frustrated, seeing Xu Hao and the girl in worse states balanced his mood somewhat.
As for why this was happening, Xu Nian had no intention of explaining to them.
"You..." Xu Hao was so angry he was nearly beside himself.
But what Xu Nian said was not wrong.
The baptism of the Dragon Transformation Pond indeed depended on personal absorption ability.
Whoever had stronger capabilities would absorb more Dragon Transformation Power.
This was also the reason why they fought for good positions at the beginning.
However, a situation like this, where the entire pool's power was absorbed by one person, had never happened before.
If they were to blame Xu Nian for this, they probably could not really justify it.
But to let things go as they were, how could they just accept it?
"Hmph, the Ancestor Vein Power inside you has not increased, yet this Dragon Transformation Power has disappeared. You must be playing tricks," Xu Wei said coldly.
Xu Nian just responded with a disdainful snort, "You have seen this Dragon Transformation Power. Do you think there's some method that can absorb the Dragon Transformation 'Power'?"
At these words from Xu Nian,
Xu Hao and Xu Wei both were startled.
That's right, Dragon Transformation Power can't just be absorbed at will.
Unless one has the bloodline of the Xu Family, it can attract the power of the Dragon Transformation, allowing it to actively enter the body.
Otherwise, no matter the method, it is impossible to absorb this Dragon Transformation Power.
But now, how had all the power of the entire Dragon Transformation Pond been absorbed by Xu Nian?
If it was merely due to bloodline attraction,
it was absolutely impossible to attract all the power of the entire Dragon Transformation Pond.
So, they all suspected that Xu Nian was up to no good, yet they couldn't find any evidence.
This left them so infuriated they were itching with vexation, but they were helpless against Xu Nian.
"If there's nothing else, get lost and don't disturb me as I continue to absorb the Dragon Transformation Power," Xu Nian said with a cold sneer.
Hearing this, Xu Hao and Xu Wei became even more enraged and stormed away in a huff.
As for Xu Yue, he didn't leave.
"What else do you want?" Xu Nian asked with a cold sneer.
Seeing Xu Nian's expression, the corners of Xu Yue's mouth twitched, and he quickly gave an awkward laugh, "Brother Nian, all those things I said to you before were forced by Xu Hao. I didn't really mean to target you, so I hope you can be magnanimous and forgive me this once. Whatever you command, brother, I'll get it done immediately."
Xu Nian's cold smile grew more intense upon hearing this.
Xu Yue really was an undeniable sycophant.
Previously, to ingratiate himself with Xu Hao, he had been relentlessly targeting him.
Now, sensing a shift in the tide, he began to shift all the blame onto Xu Hao.
Such people, Xu Nian despised the most.
"Anything you can do?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.
"Of course! What would you have me do, Brother Nian? If it's about beautiful women, that I, Xu Yue, am best at. It was me who used to take Xu Hao to the brothels," Xu Yue said with immense pride.
Xu Nian smiled faintly and spoke, "I don't want any beautiful women. I just want you to help me kill someone."
"Kill someone? Who? Who would dare trouble my Brother Nian? Just give the word, and I guarantee I'll get it done," Xu Yue said, momentarily taken aback, then striking his chest in assurance.
"Xu Tianhong!" Xu Nian replied with a smile.
"Xu Tianhong? Why does that name sound so familiar?" Xu Yue muttered to himself.
Soon enough, he realized and broke out in a cold sweat.
Wasn't Xu Tianhong their Family Head?
If Xu Nian was asking him to kill the Family Head, wasn't that sending him to his death?
"If you can't do it, then get lost!" Xu Nian coldly snorted.
Xu Yue opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something more,
but he found Xu Nian had already closed his eyes, forcing Xu Yue to leave in silence.
...
While Xu Nian and Xu Yue were talking,
the open space outside the Dragon Transformation Pond was now surrounded by quite a few people.
Two middle-aged men were leading the group.
One was named Xu Chong, and the other was Xu Bao.
Xu Chong was Xu Hao's father, and Xu Bao was Xu Wei's father.
At this moment, both were eagerly anticipating their children's awakening of a decent Ancestor Vein Power.
"Xu Bao, although Wei'er is a bit hot-tempered, her talent is exceptionally good. She will definitely awaken at least Second Rank Ancestor Vein Power this time. I'm afraid Hao'er might be overshadowed," Xu Chong said with a smile.
"Haha, when it comes to talent, my Wei'er might not match your Xu Hao, but Second Rank Ancestor Vein Power should be no problem for him. Maybe he could even awaken Third-Rank Power," Xu Bao responded.
Although they were modest with their words, their faces couldn't hide the pride they felt.
Xu Chong too smiled faintly, delighting inwardly at Xu Bao's words.
Although they appeared amicable on the surface, there was always a subtle rivalry between them.
Now, this Ancestor Vein Awakening was the time to witness the ultimate achievements of their offspring.
They complimented each other outwardly, but inwardly, they were constantly vying.
"Look, they're coming out!"
While the two were competing, the cry of a Xu Family Disciple was heard from the side.
Xu Chong and Xu Bao, hearing this, directed their gaze toward the direction of the Dragon Transformation Pond.
Indeed, they saw Xu Wei and Xu Hao walking out from within.
Both middle-aged men frowned simultaneously.
So soon?
Something was off!
