Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

```

"What a pity, with my current identity, I can't marry Xu Ran just yet. Otherwise, I really wouldn't want to let go of this opportunity."

"But it's good that Xue'er can become Xu Ran's wife ahead of time. This can be considered compensation for Xue'er."

Looking at the festive atmosphere, Bi Bidong couldn't help but feel a longing to get married as well.

Becoming Xu Ran's wife is her greatest wish right now.

Only when one falls in love does everything else, like the pursuit of strength, become less important.

However, Xu Ran had promised that once the situation stabilized, another wedding would be held, but that would be in the Divine Realm. Right now, the wedding was more about bringing peace to the entire Continent.

With this, the Continent wouldn't see any major strife for at least a few hundred years.

By that time, people across the Continent would sing praises of Xu Ran's virtues. By then, Xu Ran's prestige in the Soul Land might be unshakeable by anyone.

Meanwhile, in a room elsewhere, all the members of Tianshui College had gathered.

A sultry woman stood in the room, dressed in a black cheongsam that tightly hugged her ripe and voluptuous figure, revealing every exquisite curve.

The window was open, and as the breeze blew in, it lifted the hem of the cheongsam, revealing her shapely, straight legs. Her slender waist and ample figure were accentuated by the cheongsam and a pair of black high heels, sketching the graceful form of a mature woman.

The students of Tianshui College were all beautiful girls, and as Headmaster Shui Miao, even though she was in her thirties or forties, time had not marred her beauty in the slightest. Instead, it added a special richness to her allure.

Headmaster Shui Miao had a very full figure, which compared to Shui Bing'er and the like, carried an extra sense of fleshiness. But this fleshiness did not come across as obesity; rather, it gave off a perfectly mature charm.

At this moment, Headmaster Shui Miao was reminded of the time when Xu Ran was injured and visited Tianshui College.

She had known even then that Xu Ran was no ordinary person and was destined for greatness.

However, she could have never imagined that Xu Ran would become as formidable as he now was.

Right now, Xu Ran is undoubtedly the strongest person on the Continent.

Which power on the Continent would dare not to give Xu Ran face?

When Xu Ran got married, powers large and small across the entire Continent came to Tiandou City to bring gifts to Xu Ran. If anyone dared not to come, they would likely be uprooted the very next day.

All the top powers on the Continent fraternized with Xu Ran; what choice did the smaller powers have?

"Back then, you were really bad, yet in the blink of an eye, you've completely forgotten me," Shui Miao said with a bitter smile. Back when Xu Ran had yet to rise to power, he had taken advantage of her quite often.

He even charmed away the most talented juniors of Tianshui College.

Over all these years, Xu Ran hadn't said a word to her, leaving a trace of grievance in her heart.

Seeing Xu Ran's rise, becoming a formidable force, she couldn't help but be moved. Moreover, Xu Ran seemed to have taken an interest in her back then, which kept her fantasizing about him coming to find her.

But she waited in vain.

She knew Xu Ran was busy, accomplishing so many earth-shattering feats in such a short time must mean he was busy every day. But now Xu Ran was getting married...

Had Xu Ran really forgotten her completely?

"If you miss Xu Ran that much, just go find him," Liu Erlong, dressed in a red bridal gown, walked out and began to adorn herself in front of the vanity mirror. Seeing her friend's expression, she couldn't help but laugh.

As her friend for so many years, how could she not know what Headmaster Shui Miao was thinking?

```

```

If it hadn't been for her attending Tianshui College back then, she might have missed a fate. It was at Tianshui College that she had met Xu Ran.

"Who's thinking about him? Stop talking nonsense!"

A flash of panic swept over Shui Miao's pretty face.

Looking at the beautiful wedding dress draped over Liu Erlong, she felt an immense envy. Liu Erlong was stunning today. As her friend, she naturally wished her happiness.

But where was her own happiness?

Could she, who's heartstrings Xu Ran had plucked, feel anything for another man? Impossible.

"Psh. We've known each other for so many years, do you think I don't know you? How could I not know what you're thinking?"

"I met Xu Ran all thanks to you. If it hadn't been for you, I'd probably never have met such a good person as Xu Ran," Liu Erlong reminisced.

Thinking back to Xu Ran's roguishly bad behavior back in the day, she couldn't help but smile.

Back then, Xu Ran was even more lecherous than now, and he was very bold.

Moreover, Xu Ran wasn't as powerful as he is now, yet he dared to be so bold. A rake's life is always in danger, but thankfully Xu Ran is strong. Otherwise, he would've long died because of his lustful nature.

"You're doing this on purpose. I'm so envious of you," Shui Miao said sincerely.

Seeing Liu Erlong seeing through her thoughts made her accept it openly.

She stood behind Liu Erlong, helping to adjust the headpiece in her hair.

"Why envy me? You'll be Xu Ran's sooner or later."

"When it comes to understanding Xu Ran, I know much more than you. Anyone Xu Ran has touched, he's ended up possessing in the end. He's the pettiest, and if someone he was interested in married someone else, he would be livid," Liu Erlong chuckled. Xu Ran was easygoing about other things, but his possessiveness in relationships was too strong.

Xu Ran even said they should not dress too attractively outside, but must dress very sexily when it's just the two of them.

Really!

For Xu Ran, even if he no longer liked someone he once did, he would still claim them as his own possession, not allowing anyone else to touch them.

"Oh."

Listening to Liu Erlong's comforting words eased Shui Miao's heart a lot.

After helping Liu Erlong with her makeup, she went outside with a complex feeling to get some air.

She lifted her head and saw a very familiar silhouette on the corridor. She was somewhat dazzled.

She knew him all too well.

After so many years, he had become more mature. The domineering aura about him was even stronger than before, and he had also become more charismatic. His appearance left no woman uncharmed.

"Headmaster Shui Miao, long time no see."

Xu Ran smiled at the familiar beauty in front of him, his thoughts also drifting to a time long past.

"Xu Ran, long time no see. I never expected you'd become this powerful. Far stronger than I ever imagined," Shui Miao said half-heartedly. Back in the day, she thought Xu Ran might just become a Titled Douluo. As for his current strength, shaking the entire world, she had not seen that coming at all.

"Headmaster Shui Miao looks even more beautiful and tasteful than before," Xu Ran gazed at Shui Miao in her cheongsam, his lips curving upwards. Shui Miao used to wear a cheongsam back then, and now she was wearing one again. Was she hinting something to him?
