Chapter 1228 Bathing in Fire

More important things?

Mary froze.

Looking at the stunned Mary, Qin Ran sighed.

Although the underage princess acted calmly, she was actually constantly being hit by sudden changes, otherwise it would be impossible for the other party not to know what to do now.

Kieran stood up, raised his hand and placed his palm on Mary's head.

"James needs a funeral."

"And you need a coronation ceremony."

"Now Warren has lost its old king and must need a new king. It is riddled with holes and cannot afford any changes."

Qin Ran said softly.

"Um."

Mary lowered her head slightly so that Kieran could not clearly see her expression at this moment.

"I have a vague memory of my father."

"He only exists in books. My mother has never mentioned him directly. I don't know whether my mother loves him or hates him."

"I don't know whether I should love him or hate him."

"Even if I meet him, I will only treat him as the 'heir' in people's consciousness."

"I should be relieved when the other person I get is a lie, but why do I feel uncomfortable now?"

The underage princess said in a calm tone.

But Qin Ran clearly heard a hint of choking in it.

"Because, that's..."

"Blood."

"It is a bloodline that cannot be separated regardless of time, region, or death."

"It makes you feel sad."

"It's also to let you know that you don't have everything."

Kieran half-crouched down and looked directly at Mary, whose eyes were red. After gently brushing the corners of her eyes with his palms, he stood up again and placed his palms on her head.

"Y-but I don't want to be sad"

The underage princess said in a low voice.

"So, that's the reality."

"It's always been so brutal."

"Whether you accept it or not, it will educate you hard until you understand its existence: what reality is."

Kieran sighed.

"It's really a despicable, cruel existence."

The minor's voice became lower and lower, like a whisper.

"yes."

"It's despicable and cruel."

"So, we need to be strong."

"Remember when you asked me, what is real strength?"

Qin Ran suddenly asked.

"Remember."

The underage princess nodded.

"I think you can add this to yourself: I am strong because I want to have the right to say no to sadness at some point."

Qin Ran said seriously.

"The reason why I am strong is because I want to have the right to refuse sadness at certain times?"

The underage princess raised her head.

She looked at Qin Ran who was smiling.

Then, nodded.

Some truths, the sooner you understand the better.

Some things are best never experienced in your life.

Go through if you have to.

So……

Please get ready.

It must be heart-wrenching.

…

Qin Ran did not stay in the tea room for long.

Mary needs to be alone.

This is the growth of the other party.

As for James' funeral, Mary's enthronement?

There is no need for him to worry about it.

The courtiers of the palace will take care of everything.

He just needs to watch silently and deal with what may happen.

Kieran will not forget the hints in [The Secret from Twenty Years Ago].

Just like he doesn't forget to check his loot.

[Name: Bathing Fire]

[Note: It is incomplete and incomplete, but this does not prevent it from being the secret of the Crow Sect. Every First Crow will try their best to perfect it, and this is also a necessary task for every First Crow. 】

…

The scroll wrapped in dark gold made Qin Ran narrow his eyes.

Although Kieran knew that the gain this time was huge when he saw the luster that represented the level of the item, he did not expect that it would be such a big gain.

"Is it the mystery of the Crow School?"

The corners of Qin Ran's mouth turned up involuntarily while he was talking to himself.

Even the incomplete secrets of the Crow Sect were enough to make Qin Ran happy.

He will not underestimate the trump card of any organization that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

What's more, the Crow Faction is obviously focused on controlling fire.

And him?

It is also close to the flame.

Use the flame of the devil to complete the mystery of the Crow School...

When he thought of such a scene, Qin Ran was full of expectations.

Of course, in order for that day to appear as soon as possible, he must learn [Mysterious Knowledge (Crow Sect)] as quickly as possible and reach the master level.

And this is not a simple matter.

The only good thing is that he has many people to teach him.

"Help me find Maxim."

Kieran ordered to the shadows in the room.

The snake immediately disappeared into the room.

Although there are many candidates to teach, who is more suitable than Maxim, who is the record-keeper of the Raven Faction?

There is no such thing in Kieran's memory.

The waiting time is extremely long.

Kieran was very patient and didn't feel uncomfortable at all, especially when there was someone accompanying him——

Boom, boom, boom.

"Please come in."

After the knock on the door, the door was slowly pushed open.

A man wearing a light blue robe, barefoot and blue hair, with watery but colorless eyes walked in slowly.

Although the other party couldn't see it, it was the first time he entered Kieran's room, but he didn't touch any unnecessary obstacles, let alone bump into each other. He just walked in front of Kieran and stood within about one meter. Certainly.

Qin Ran looked at the other party in surprise.

In the dense forest before, because of the appearance of the crow, he used his speed to get rid of the opponent.

The other party will naturally not give up.

Therefore, Qin Ran believed that the other party should have clearly seen what happened just now.

But under such a premise, if the other party still dares to appear in front of him, it becomes playful.

You know, their relationship is not that of friends.

It is not an exaggeration to even say that they are enemies.

Based on such a relationship, the other party's appearance in front of him naturally has some purpose.

Qin Ran was convinced of this.

However, Qin Ran didn't speak first, he just waited quietly to speak first.

And the water ape?

He is also obviously a very patient person.

The two of them were facing each other, sitting and standing.

Time flies by.

It wasn't until the sound of footsteps sounded outside that Water Monkey, who obviously didn't want to see outsiders, spoke in advance.

"Yuan Snake."

"Me, the helper."

In these words that were so brief that it made people frown, the water ape turned into a stream of water and disappeared.

Kieran, who was sitting in the chair, became thoughtful.

"Snake sect and ape sect?"
