Episode 1
Chapter One: My Journey to Education (Part 1)
Beyond the vast ocean, where sea and sky meet, lies a boundless and mysterious continent known as Central Continent. In the beginning, before the separation of Yin and Yang, humans, ghosts, dragons, and beasts coexisted peacefully. The humans who inhabited the central part of the continent first established a monarchical kingdom, named "Holy Dragon." Its pleasant climate and fertile land attracted immigrants from all directions, and through the combined efforts of many ethnic groups, a prosperous and powerful nation was created. Here, people lived in peace and contentment, officials performed their duties diligently, and scholarship and culture flourished—a golden age unseen for millennia.
In the 120th year of the Holy Dragon Kingdom's rule, one early summer day, two young lecherous men appeared in the city square of the eastern trading city, commenting on the newly erected statue of the Queen.
"Hey Xinran, something seems off about this statue!"
"What, Brother Mingyuan, are you not satisfied?"
"No, no, I mean... Your Majesty's breasts, aren't they a little too... too full?" As he spoke, the short, chubby young man named Mingyuan gestured in front of his chest. "My cousin is only sixteen years old, her breasts can't possibly be that big."
"Girls! Of course, the fuller the breasts, the better. I personally like them quite a bit—does Brother Mingyuan not like that?" the boy named Xinran asked in return.
“I personally quite like your statue, but my cousin—I mean Her Majesty the Queen—may not like it.”
“It’s okay, as long as we like it,” Xinran comforted him with a smile. “Your cousin is far away in the capital, and she may never come to Goode in her lifetime. Even if she does see this statue in ten or eight years, she will be a mature woman by then, and her breasts will have developed to this size.”
The two people who were discussing the Queen's breasts in public were both prominent figures in the trading city.
The short, chubby boy was named Long Mingyuan, the current queen's cousin. At the young age of twenty, he was appointed governor of the wealthiest city in the country, a remarkable achievement for a young man. Although he was the lord of a city, Long Mingyuan appeared to be a follower in front of his good friend Su Xinran.
People who meet Su Xinran for the first time are often captivated by his handsome appearance and elegant demeanor, and may even be unable to tell whether he is a man or a woman.
Especially now, as he crosses his arms and gazes up at the floating clouds in the sky, his fair and jade-like face is more perfect than a statue sculpted from gemstones. His jet-black hair is not deliberately combed, yet it is free and easy without appearing messy. When the wind blows his bangs, his beautiful forehead shines like a mirror.
His bright eyes, shimmering in the sunlight, radiated a captivating and mysterious light, making one involuntarily wonder what was on his mind, accompanied by a touch of melancholy.
However, this close-up profile didn't last long. Su Xinran was a half-human, half-vampire hybrid. Although she could live in the daytime, she couldn't endure the intense sunlight for long periods.
“Brother Mingyuan, let’s sit down and enjoy the cool air! I’m about to faint…” He lowered his head, lazily walked into the shade of the tree, sat down on the ground, picked up a pebble and started drawing something on the ground in a daze. When he was lost in thought, his expression was more like that of a sweet young girl, her bright white clothes standing out among the green trees, making her appear even more ethereal and otherworldly.
Such a beautiful and elegant person, like a fairy descended from heaven, who would have thought that he would be the absurd ghost known as the "nightmare of the trading city"? If anyone doesn't believe it, just go and inquire in the streets and alleys. The misdeeds of the young master of the Su family could be told for three days and three nights without stopping.
Su Xinran's evil isn't the kind that bullies men and women; his terrifying aspect lies in his endless pranks and his fearless personality. He's more like a mischievous child who's both funny and unruly than a villain who's universally resented.
Before Su Xinran was born, his parents were already famous throughout the world.
The ancestors of the Su family were not native to Central Continent. They immigrated from the Kingdom of Silk, thousands of miles across the ocean, at the end of the Flood Era. They started by trading real estate and for centuries remained one of the wealthiest families in the eastern part of the empire. Many similar immigrant families exist in Central Continent. Immigrants from the Kingdom of Silk alone make up a quarter of the country's total population.
Su Xinran's father, Su Jiusi, graduated from the Holy Dragon Academy, the premier academic institution in the Holy Kingdom, with degrees in diplomacy, military affairs, and finance. He was hailed as a genius rarely seen in a millennium and a leading figure among young talents. After completing his studies, Su Jiusi took over the family business from his father. While maintaining the family business, he also engaged in the arms trade, making a fortune from war and quickly becoming one of the wealthiest men in the Holy Kingdom.
Su Jiusi entered officialdom through commerce, serving successively as a diplomat, finance minister, principal of the National Holy Dragon Academy, and governor of a trading city in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He resigned at the age of fifty to retire and enjoy his later years. Long Mingyuan, the newly appointed governor, was his student at the Holy Dragon Academy. Despite being a member of the royal family, Long Mingyuan dared not raise his head or speak in front of his teacher. Because of this relationship, Long Mingyuan and Su Xinran had addressed each other as brothers since childhood.
Su Xinran's mother had an even greater reputation; she was the last princess of the Gusaran royal family, the vampire kingdom of the Eastern Dark Continent. Eighteen years ago, King Gusaran died suddenly, and the royal family fell apart. Many powerful earls and dukes declared themselves kings, claiming to be Gusaran's successors. As the most legitimate heir, Su Xinran's mother naturally possessed the most formidable power.
The Holy Dragon Kingdom, citing a succession dispute within the ancient Salan royal family, sent troops to invade. This was met with fierce resistance from the vampire tribes. Humans were already far weaker than vampires, and the hasty deployment further exacerbated the situation, resulting in a very unfavorable outcome. Instead of gaining any advantage, the vampires seized many towns in the north, turning them all into ancient Salan territory. Only out of fear of the kingdom's guardian deity, "Holy Dragon Othello," did the vampires dare not continue their invasion.
The defeat on the battlefield forced the Holy Kingdom to seek progress through diplomacy. So it sent Su Jiusi, then a diplomat, to the royal family of Gusaran. Ostensibly, he was there to support the last princess Cecilia Gusaran in unifying the whole country, but in reality, he was observing the situation to see if this heroine could really make a difference.
Cecilia proved to be politically inept, not only refusing to discuss state affairs but also engaging in a romance with a diplomat. Later, she resolutely relinquished her right to the royal succession and married Su Jiusi. Regardless of their initial motives, their union undoubtedly brought immense political benefits to the Holy Kingdom. The Kingdom of Gusalan, as part of the princess's dowry, became a province of the Holy Kingdom. Although opposition forces still existed, at least nominally, a major threat on the eastern border had been eliminated.
Cecilia did not return to her homeland with her husband after their marriage, but instead remained in the mainland as the first governor of the Ancient Salan Province. She only visited the Su family mansion in the trading city each winter to spend a few months with her husband. This separation was partly due to the fact that vampires cannot leave the Dark Continent to live in the sunlight, and partly a hint at Su Jiusi's clever arrangement. As long as his beloved wife remained in power in the Ancient Salan Province, the Su family's position in the Holy Kingdom would not be shaken. As for the women, Su Jiusi already had one wife and three concubines; when he missed new lovers, he had his old flames to keep him company, so he didn't feel particularly lonely.
Cecilia was happy to obey her husband's arrangements. She was feeling guilty and dared not meet her husband until her son was born, at which point she finally felt relieved.
It turns out that Su Xinran was not Cecilia's child with Su Jiusi. As for who his biological father was, even his mother probably didn't know. Vampires have never cared much about relationships between men and women. Cecilia had been involved with countless men before marriage, so who knows who fathered Su Xinran? It wasn't until she discovered she was pregnant that she chose Su Jiusi, the most suitable man among all the men, and married him off.
The vampire's romantic escapades came to an end with childbirth. Since giving birth to her precious son, Cecilia has been a devoted wife and mother. However, no matter how hard she tries, she can't figure out who the child's biological father is.
欣然的容貌三分像吸血鬼母亲，三分像人类父亲，三分像妖精。可是仔细一分辨，又好像谁也不像。赛西丽亚曾悄悄告诉儿子，如果按照怀孕时间推算，她怀上宝宝的那几天正在替暴死的父亲服丧，根本不敢也没有乱搞男女关系的机会，怎么会怀孕呢？简直想不通。如果说有什么预兆，就只是一个奇怪的梦。她有一晚梦见一头黑色的巨龙，周身燃烧着烈焰，沖进了她的怀中，之后没多久就发现怀孕了。如此说来，欣然应该是梦中的产物。找不到亲老子固然倒楣，如今被称为“噩梦”，倒也名副其实。
由于童年时代受到母亲的熏陶，欣然的性格里也多少有些妖气，行事常常不按牌里出牌。小小年纪便胆大妄为心狠手辣，至于风流好色的恶习，倒是可以赖在父亲一方。
十岁以后，欣然便按照父母的约定，被送回圣龙王国抚养。母亲当然舍不得，可是父亲有更充分的理由——这是为了让他接受更完整更文明的教育。吸血鬼的黄金时代早已结束了，那些举止优雅讲究格调的伯爵、夫人们，只能在阴森的城堡里摆摆排场。吸血鬼几乎是不生产后代的，所以也不存在学校一说。
父母的想法很好，却来得太迟了。欣然在阴森森的古堡中生活了十年，心早就野了。他并非没有好奇心和求知欲，但这仅限于他感兴趣的方面，他宁可在古书堆里翻找一道邪术秘方，也不愿意老老实实的坐在教室里照本宣科。于是乎，老爸的教育计划，也就一次又一次的被迫流产。
最初，苏九思是想把儿子培养成一位财政人才，将来接自己的班。可是欣然根本就不感兴趣。他对政治不感兴趣，是出于小孩子厌恶復杂利害关系的本能，至于对经商不感兴趣，则是因为这位小少爷从小不缺钱，根本就感觉不到赚钱的重要性。他固然喜欢赚钱，但是更喜欢花钱，一赚一花，等于两手空空，学来作甚？
等到儿子稍大一点，懂事了，苏老爷也想跟他推心置腹的谈一谈，说说苏家在商界的地位和光荣的发家史，让孩子有点家族自豪感，激发出上进心。况且，身在贸易都市却不懂得做生意，岂不是很丢脸？
可是欣然却说：“学赚钱干什么用？老爸你赚得钱够我花一辈子了。”
“我的钱是我赚的，不是你的呀！”
“等你死了，分一半给姐姐，剩下的不全是我的？老爸你与其担心我将来受穷，不如早点死掉，那我就能早一点随便花钱啦。”
……教育儿子反倒被诅咒早死，苏老爷的心情可想而知。

第一章求学记（下）
第一次教子失败后苏老爷改弦易辙，决定放弃政治与经商，让儿子学习宗教和历史。苏家有权有势，在宗教界的支持者却不多。如果欣然肯用功鉆研神学与历史，再加上苏家的支持，将来混个大主教当当不在话下。
苏老爷的算盘打得很响，无奈儿子不争气。第一天带他去本城教堂拜见神父就闹出了大笑话。神父听说苏老爷有意把儿子送入教堂学习，当即表示欢迎。再看小孩儿俊美的的好似粉搓玉琢一般，嘴巴又甜，说起话来很讨人喜欢，心里已经喜欢了七分。就对他说“苏公子有心鉆研圣教典籍，这是好事，但是必须补习历史课程，否则经书是看不懂的。”
苏欣然以为神父小看自己，不高兴的说：“历史，我很熟的。”
神父听罢笑道：“那你就给我说说圣龙王国的创建史吧。”
“这是尽人皆知的常识，难不倒我的，”欣然扬起小脸儿，滔滔不绝的说，“太古之初，造物神库索于虚空创世，以混沌之气充塞宇宙，清者上升，成为天空，浊者下降，乃成大地。”
说到这里，神父了苏老爷都频频点头，满面笑容。可是接下来，这小子就忍不住信口开河胡说八道了。
“且说库索大神运行于混沌之上，大喊一声要有光，世上就有了光，大喊一声要有水，世上便有了水。大神见猎心喜，又喊了很多次要这要那，和乞丐不同之处在于，当神大喊大叫时并没有人对他翻白眼，于是我们这个世界就有了光明和黑暗，有了风、火、水、地四大元素。
”最初，火元素占据了统治地位，大地上遍布疔疮似的火山，一刻不停的喷吐着巖浆和有毒蒸汽，把新生的世界烤得红通通热辣辣，好像火锅一样，因而那个时代便被称作‘火焰世纪’。
“在这变态的环境里，只有耐高温的动植物才能生存下来。其中最强大的是炎魔一族。他们是生活在烈火中的巨人，以巖浆为饮料，以火花树的果实和火蜥蜴、火狗熊、火人妖为食物，驱使火侏儒、火精灵当奴仆，用金刚石在火山腹中修建了众多富丽堂皇的宫殿，过着穷奢极欲的生活。大神喜爱炎魔一族，赐给他们一千岁的长寿。
”活该炎魔一族好景不长，火焰世纪只维持了一万年。而后地壳变动，大地被洪水淹没，曾经遍布全世界的火山大部分沉入海底。炎魔一族遭了灭顶之灾，好像掉进水桶的火炭一样，吱熘——吱熘——冒着白烟翘了辫子。这些曾经不可一世的巨人，留给后代的只有被海水冷却后变成巖石的躯体，唯一的用处是摆在豪宅门前吓唬穷人。
“取代火焰世纪的是洪水世纪。洪水世纪的统治者是海洋巨人。他们长着人类的身体和鱼的下肢，不如炎魔健壮，但更美丽更聪明。创世神更爱海洋巨人，赐给了他们两千岁的寿命。
”海洋巨人在漫长的岁月里发展出了卓越的文明。他们在海底开垦牧场，种植深水植物，饲养生产甘甜乳汁的海牛，他们还在海底建立了富饶繁华的城市，城市设施应有尽有，仅美人鱼妓院就有八条街之多，一位海洋皇帝的宫殿尖顶竟从海底拔地而起直刺天空，傲然侵入神的领地。
“海洋巨人的智能和力量带来的不止是富足，亦中下了堕落的种子，他们变得日益狂妄，藐视居住在天上的神，改而信奉北极魔母贝拉为偶像。大神得知后派遣天使前去警告异端分子，然而海洋巨人不知悔改，依旧我行我素。
”于是天使军团开赴大海，与以北极魔母为首的海洋巨人展开了你死我活的战争。战争延续了一千年，最后，库索大神再一次确立了至高无上的权威。海洋巨人被驱逐到遥远寒冷的北极深海。库索大神诅咒他们永生不得见阳光，灵魂在地狱里喝不到水。
“海洋巨人的反叛使库索大神生出了警戒之心。他命令太阳在天空悬挂了一千年，使海水干涸，现出大地。其中最大的一块陆地位于海洋中央，呈十字形，名为中洲，也就是后来世界的主人——人类——的聚居地。
”火焰世纪和洪水世纪灭亡后，库索大神感觉到地面生物的力量越来越难以控制，于是选择比较弱小的人类作为地面生物的代言人，令他们成为第三纪——泥土世纪——的主人。库索大神吸取了海洋巨人的教训，只给人类不足百年的寿命，并受疾病威胁。
“在泥土世纪，四大元素被平衡分配，没有哪一种占据绝对优势，从前充盈天地之间的元素魔力消失不见，只在矿藏稀少的魔晶石里还残存着少许。魔晶石开采不易，人类也不能像炎魔一族和海洋巨人那样利用元素魔力改造自然，只能靠种植和渔猎维生。
”在这片新生的土地上，炎魔一族和海洋巨人的势力并没有被全盘取代，他们的后代以人类亚种和魔兽的形态存活下来，渐渐适应了陆地生活，他们中间那些残忍强大的掠食者，时常会袭击人类聚居的村落，以屠杀无辜、奸淫妇女的暴行成为人类共同的恶梦。但也有一些魔兽被人类捕获、驯化，以供利用。被驯化的魔物被称作‘仆魔’，泥土世纪的人类与其他生物相比显得非常弱小，能够生存延续至今，全赖仆魔之助。
“泥土世纪延续了数千年，人类并没有创造出威胁神的地位的文明，战争的主题仍是刀剑与铠甲的鸣奏曲。饶是人类种族之间，也难以做到和平共处，他们互相攻击、欺骗，荒淫无道的国王、不讲信用的商人、为富不仁的财主比比皆是。
”大神对这样的世界心满意足。他宁愿鼓励人类相互争斗，也不希望他们联合起来挑战自己的权威。尽管如此，他还是不能完全放心。他害怕在洪水世纪曾经发生过的恶梦又在人类身上復苏。于是派遣女儿玛利亚下凡，建立了库索圣教，在精神上统治人类。库索圣教教义的核心就是“忍耐”，布道者说，只要忍受了今生的苦难，来世就得以上天堂享福。
“库索教义把天堂说的天花乱坠，但这并不能减少人生的苦难。一个可怕的预言在不信神的人们中间秘密传播开来，总有一天，泥土世纪将被飓风世纪取代，一位银发黑眸、半人半机械的男子从黑暗中走来，身后倒下无数强者的尸体！
”五百年前，飓风世纪的先锋莅临人世。他是来自天外的魔王，被信徒们尊成为暗世界的救世主‘黑天使’，他在大地上播种了奇异的植物种籽，结出机械的果实。黑天使的信徒有远胜于人类的头脑和钢铁的身躯，以无所不在的风与阳光为能量，簇拥在他的麾下讨伐人类。人与机械之战持续了三百八十年，人类溃败，即将灭绝。战败的人类向库索大神祈求帮助，得到了神的答復，他将自己的儿子奥赛罗送到凡间，招来金属龙大军，与人类盟友并肩作战。
“人与机械的最后一战，以奥赛罗与黑天使的决战作为尾声，奥赛罗化身‘圣龙’，击败了黑天使幻化的‘邪龙’，从此，机械的时代结束了，人类重新成为了中洲的主人，奉女神玛利亚为王，建立了圣都伊甸，由是开创圣龙王朝。而立下赫赫战功的圣龙奥赛罗，也一直镇守在圣都，成为王朝的守护神，为了纪念圣龙的功绩，玛利亚之后的圣国君主，便以‘龙’为国姓。
”然而飓风世纪并未结束，‘机械之果’埋藏在世界各地，逐渐被人类加以利用，与‘魔晶石’、‘仆魔’共同成为新时代的文明支柱。黑天使遁入深渊魔域，在无尽的黑暗中等待復苏的那一刻，当飓风重临尘世，钢蓝色的晚霞将笼罩世界，復活的黑天使将召来新时代的飓风，把库索的天堂连同人世间的不平与不幸统统吹到宇宙尽头见他妈的鬼。“
欣然一口气说完，自我感觉良好。苏老爷和神父却脸色铁青，无言以对。
”……“
”爸爸，神父，我讲的对不对？“
”儿子……咱们还是回家吧，“苏老爷狼狈向神父道歉，”对不起，小孩子胡说八道，您别当真。“
神父不动声色的点点头，只说了句”不送“便拂袖而去。
当天晚上，苏家收到了来自圣都教廷的警告，不许苏家再宣传异端教义，诋毁库索大神。苏老爷没来由吃了个闷亏，真是有苦说不出。只好把儿子狠批一顿了事。告诫他不许听信异端宣传。其实他哪里知道，欣然确实是从历史书上看到的上述文字，然而那是在吸血鬼王宫的地下室里搜出的民间历史作品，记载的大多是圣王国创建初期的往事，令人类大大丢脸的黑天使入侵也如实的记载下来。现今的历史课本却是被国家文化局严格审查过的，凡是与黑天使相关的字眼，早已尽数删去。难怪他说出那番话后神父大惊失色，连忙向教廷打小报告了。
圣龙王国是建立在宗教信仰基础上的宗法统治。教廷的势力极大，几乎可以与圣女王分庭抗礼。因此财大气粗如苏老爷者，也不敢不听话。当天晚上便前去教堂忏悔，赠送了神父一万圣龙金币。神父收了钱，脸色好多了，温和的劝告苏老爷：”令公子才思敏捷聪明绝顶，然而太聪明的人，终究不适合投身宗教事业，你还是让他改学文艺吧。“
苏老爷回家一想，也是这个道理。儿子从政学商都不成，当教士这条路也走不通，那么干脆让他学习文艺也不错，经商世家出了一位艺术家，也显得他苏老爷并不是只认得钱。
就这样，苏欣然又被老爸送去学习文学，十二、三岁的小孩，整天跟一帮宫廷诗人混在一起，结果诗人没学成，学会了写最让上流社会瞧不上眼的小说。
如果好好的写小说，写出好作品，未尝不是一条成名之路。可是，欣然混在文人圈子里的时候，正值青春期，懵懂少年最易被艳情文字吸引，向往艳情小说中的风流生活。苏欣然不但风流一事躬亲体验，还专门写艳情小说大肆宣扬。如果全属虚构，或者写跟自己交往的小女友，倒也能博得风流才子的美誉。可他倒好，小小的人儿，打起了老子的主意。
苏老爷家有两妻三妾，除了元配年岁已大，最爱的吸血鬼娇妻不在身边，余下的三位小妾正是如狼似虎的年纪。苏老爷本人也颇有些寡人之疾，虽说年过五旬，房事上还是很行的。苏欣然写艳情小说，竟然拿自己老子当男主角，写出一部《苏大头春宵寻梦记》，付印出版，一时风行全城，洛阳纸贵。
苏老爷得知此事后立刻派人抢购了一本翻阅，越看越不是滋味。把儿子叫来臭骂了一顿，哭笑不得的说：”你把你老子姨娘写得如此不堪入目，我是生气，可我更生气的是，你竟敢给你老子取诨号——苏大头？！我是苏大头，你就是苏小头！混小子！“
苏老爷当时正为老来脱发而苦恼，头发稀少了，脑袋自然显得比较大。苏大头的诨号，其实早就在下人中流传开了。只是他不知道。如今被儿子写进书中，当然羞愤难当。
”爸爸，我乱写书，的确是我的错，可是我这么写，对您也不全是坏事。“欣然被老子打了一顿屁股，痛得愁眉苦脸，可贫嘴依旧不改。
苏老爷一瞪眼，拍案怒喝：”混账！难道还有好事吗！？“
”您老人家都五十多了，可在书中的表现却龙精虎勐金枪不倒，别人知道以后，都会羡慕您呢。您多有面子呀。“
”……“
苏老爷无话可说，只有苦笑。儿子终归是自己的，舍不得打舍不得骂，负面影响已经造成，只好抢购书籍，毁掉印版了事。就因为这个，苏老爷还被书局投诉，告他干涉出版自由，不得不赔款道歉，高价买回版权。苏大头的诨号已经尽人皆知了，这是怎么也封锁不掉的，自认倒霉吧。
《苏大头春宵寻梦记》卖了上万本，身为畅销作者的欣然，很是赚了一笔小钱。由此觉得赚钱实在是很快乐的事，对经商的看法也改变了。
苏老爷气儿子胡闹，在零花钱上严格限制。欣然手头儿紧张，感到日子很不好过。就对老爸提议，再去学习经商，自己赚钱。可是这回老头子反而不愿意了，瞪眼骂道：”让你学作诗，你却跑去写黄色小说，你现在想学经商，是不是想贩卖妇女啊！不行！“
老头子一语成谶，欣然日后还真就干了一票人口贩子。这是后话，暂且不提。
——————————————————————————–
第二章（上）
且说欣然从文失败，苏老爷不免有些心灰意冷。曾有朋友劝他送儿子去参军习武，他想了想，觉得不妥。一是他舍不得宝贝独生子受苦，再则儿子的脾气他不是不知道，没有学武就闹得鸡飞狗跳了，如有兇器在手，恐怕要闹出命案来。正在无计可施的时候，大女儿回家了。
苏家的儿子不争气，女儿却很出色。苏老爷与元配生的一女，芳名红袖，比欣然年长三岁，是当代圣女王的干姐姐，小时候住在宫廷里，公主应受的教育，一样也不少。五年前被送往魔法学院希瓦学习，后又进入圣龙神殿修行，成为神殿中最年轻最漂亮的女祭司。
本来，苏老爷鉴于儿子不成器，感觉无法把事业托付给他，一直力劝女儿放弃神职，回家继承祖业。百般劝说后女儿终于回家，这也是欣然第一次与姐姐苏红袖见面。这一年，欣然十三岁。
苏老爷原本担心姐弟俩合不来，可事实证明他的担心纯属多余。苏红袖回家后简直像一见钟情似的喜欢上了精灵古怪的小弟，姐弟二人形影不离，有说不完的话。苏老爷想不通圣洁高贵不茍言笑的女儿怎么会和恶搞成性的儿子投契，便问欣然到底跟红袖聊了些什么。根据他自己的看法，女人一旦对宗教入迷，就会变得言语乏味冷淡无趣，红袖的母亲便是如此。
然而欣然却说：”姐姐知道很多外面的事，我很喜欢听她讲。“
”这样啊，真是小孩脾气，等你长大了，自己去外面走一圈，就什么都知道了。你姐姐从小在宫廷长大，并没见过多少世面。“苏老爷说。
"Actually, there's something else," Xinran smiled mysteriously, "I don't believe my sister can become the Dharma King, so I test her spiritual practice every day."
"The Dharma King?!" Old Master Su was stunned by these two words. He had never placed high hopes on his daughter before, but now that he heard that his daughter had the potential to become the supreme leader of the Kuso Holy Church, he was overjoyed.
"Hmm, if Hongxiu really has a chance to become a Dharma King... it seems I must make some moves."
"Dad, don't rush to give money to those charlatans. I don't think my sister will become the Dharma King."
"Nonsense! In what way does your sister not qualify her to be the Dharma King?"
"She lacks willpower and can't withstand the test!"
"How did you know that?" Old Su was so focused on spending money to bribe the cardinals of the French Royal Court to pave the way for his daughter that he didn't give his son's warning a second thought.
"Sigh, if you don't believe me, I won't say anything. Anyway, my sister is no good. She couldn't even pass my test; going to the Dharma King's Hall would just be a pointless embarrassment."
"You little rascal, you know nothing about religious matters, so stop interrupting and spouting nonsense."
"Hmph, I don't understand religious matters, but I do know that the Dharma King, regardless of gender, must remain chaste for life and cannot marry—"
"Your sister never intended to get married."
"Sigh, Father, my sister wouldn't like being the Dharma King; she wouldn't be happy that way."
"I have my own plans, what do you know!"
That evening, Master Su invited his first wife, Madam Song, and Su Hongxiu to his study to discuss his daughter's future. As expected, his daughter was reluctant to go to the Dharma King's Hall. Master Su earnestly advised her, explaining that the old Dharma King had just passed away, and if they didn't seize the opportunity, someone else would beat them to it, which would be detrimental to the family's future. Su Hongxiu remained unwilling and appeared dejected, as if she had suffered a defeat. During her time cultivating in the temple, she had been listed as one of the seven most beautiful women in Central Continent by gossipy individuals and given the nickname "Ice Rose," demonstrating her consistently cold and composed demeanor. However, not long after returning home, she seemed like a completely different person.
The birth mother, Madam Song, sensed something was amiss and asked if she had found someone she loved. Master Su quickly replied, "If she has found someone, that's fine too. Giving up the position of Dharma King and bringing in a son-in-law to inherit the family business wouldn't be bad either." He had given up hope on his son.
Su Hongxiu hesitated for a long time before shaking her head and saying, "My daughter has no one in mind."
"Then you should go to the Dharma King's Hall. Whether you succeed or not, it doesn't matter."
"Father, you make the decision. Your daughter will obey."
And so, Su Hongxiu returned to the Holy Capital the next day to meet with the four cardinal bishops, accompanied by Master Su.
After some negotiation and investigation, coupled with Master Su's connections and financial offensive, Miss Hongxiu reluctantly ascended the throne of the Dharma King. This time, even Her Majesty the Holy Queen had to kneel before her to repent.
Master Su returned home triumphantly. He had started with four carriages, but by the time he arrived, there were forty. They were laden with gifts from priests and bishops from all over. Even the priest who had previously dismissed Xinran after reporting her had come to visit, offering to become Xinran's theology tutor. However, Master Su was no longer the same man; he had a daughter who was now the King of France. Why would he need to cultivate another charlatan? He flatly declined.
Xinran was not happy at all to learn that her sister had become the Dharma King. Partly it was because they might never see each other again, but there was a deeper worry in her heart. Master Su spoke highly of the four cardinal ministers of the Dharma King's court, praising their high moral character, widespread respect, and profound knowledge. Xinran, however, dismissed them with disdain, saying, "Those people are all fucking good-for-nothings." He had ample reason to say this, but dared not say it outright, otherwise he feared for his life.
His sister became the Dharma King, and Xinran was saddened for a while. However, he quickly cheered up again. Master Su visited the Holy Capital and was in high spirits. Compared to the trading city, he increasingly felt that this place was too small to cultivate truly talented people. He planned to send his son to study in the Holy Capital. He had been the administrative principal of the Holy Dragon Academy, the nation's highest institution of learning, and many of his former subordinates and students held positions of power and taught there; securing a place for his son would be a piece of cake. The only thing that troubled him was the question of what to study. He increasingly realized that Xinran was like a quagmire; no matter what kind of fresh water you poured in, what came out was still mud. This precious son wasn't incompetent; he had gone mad, specializing in evil arts.
When the time came, he had no choice but to consult Xinran. Without hesitation, Xinran said, "The murals in the Dharma King's Hall are beautiful and magnificent. I want to go there to observe and learn how to paint them." In truth, his real intention was simply to meet with his sister.
Old Master Su didn't care about all that. If his son wanted to learn mural painting, then so be it. Besides, his sister could take care of him. So he confidently sent his son to the Dharma King's Hall. Following his daughter, another young man from the Su family entered "the most sacred place on earth."
As for what Xinran did in the most sacred place, it was simply appalling.
Three months later, this lively young master was returned to the Dharma King's Hall untouched. The reason given was that he was too childish and unsuitable for the serious environment of the Dharma King's Hall. This was, of course, just a polite remark. In fact, according to Hongxiu's letter home, Master Su had already learned that his son had caused a great deal of trouble and almost implicated his sister. Helpless, he had no choice but to send him home.
On the very night his son returned home, Master Su prepared bamboo sticks and a leather whip, intending to give him a severe beating. He'd tolerated his son's misbehavior at home, but his outrageous behavior at the Dharma King's Hall, embarrassing his sister, was utterly lawless and deserved punishment!
