"But isn't my bloodline already crippled … Even my father can't do anything about it. Do you really have a way to purify and activate it?" Bei Lian's eyes widened with incredulity.
An Lin nodded with a serious expression. "Your father can't activate it, but that doesn't mean others can't. This is a method I obtained from Senior Shen Yin, and I guarantee it will work!"
"Senior Shen Yin … Are you talking about the Heavenly Dragon Goddess of the Dragon Tribe?!" Bei Lian's mouth gaped open as if she had heard something extremely shocking.
Shen Yin was the senior with the highest chance of successfully progressing to the Dao Integration Stage in the past ten thousand years. If she had chosen the True Dragon Dao, she would have most likely succeeded a long time ago. Her experiences had made her a legendary figure in the Dragon Court, and she was Bei Lian's idol. How could Bei Lian maintain her composure now that An Lin was claiming that she was the one who had devised this method?
"That's her." An Lin nodded with certainty. "I discovered this method through a fortuitous encounter. Let's go somewhere else to talk."
An Lin flew off on his dog's back as he spoke. Bei Lian followed behind him in a daze, as if she was still digesting this information.
They arrived at a secluded mountain. This place was extremely tranquil with only the occasional chirping of birds and insects.
"Hmm, this is a good place to do things in secret." An Lin nodded with satisfaction as he surveyed the surroundings.
Bei Lian: "…"
"Big Brother An, there's nothing wrong with the basic meaning, but why does it sound so perverted when it comes out of your mouth? Woof! "Dabai heaved a forlorn sigh.
Bam!
Dabai received another punch to the head.
"Anyone can say that, but you can't! How dare a perverted dog comment on me? "An Lin snapped.
"Woof! A crooked stick will have a crooked shadow! Like master, like dog! "Dabai retorted.
An Lin's chest constricted upon hearing this. F * ck, Dabai's words were like self-inflicted wounds!
A faint smile appeared on Bei Lian's face as she watched the two of them play around.
She slowly recovered from An Lin's words. Although she was very excited, she was not in a hurry to speak. She only stared at the man in front of her with a pair of beautiful eyes filled with anticipation.
An Lin realized that Bei Lian had been staring at him this entire time, and he couldn't help but blush. He coughed lightly and said, "Stop fooling around, let's get down to business!"
As he spoke, he began to fish out one item after another from his storage ring.
"This is the Thousand Year Moon Sinking Wood I got from the Green Island. This is the Ancient Purple Vine and the True Blood of the Winged Dragon that I found in the ancient battlefield of the Dragon Court. The Dark Ice Crystal from the Heavenly Frost Island, the Desolate Fire Bone from the Soaring Snake Volcano, the Divine White Herb from the Venerate Devil Island …"
Bei Lian silently stared at the items that An Lin had taken out from his storage ring. These items all contained extremely powerful energy fluctuations, and just a single glance was enough to tell that they were all extraordinary items. In particular, when she saw the Ancient Purple Vine and the True Blood of the Winged Dragon, her heart trembled violently.
She had heard the names of these two items from Yin Yu. Wasn't the reason why An Lin had ventured into the ancient battlefield so that he could obtain these two items? So that's why … So An Lin had ventured into the ancient battlefield to collect these two items in order to resolve the issue of her bloodline.
"M-hm, these are the items. Later, I will set up a bloodline purification spell formation with Xiao Chou. You don't need to do anything else other than meditate at the center of the spell formation and circulate your True Dragon Mantra." An Lin was clearly much more serious now that he was talking about business.
The spell formation was extremely complex. After all, this was not an ordinary spell formation, and it required an extremely large amount of energy. Not only did it require the activation of the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth, but it also required the support of a hundred thousand spirit stones.
Just setting up this spell formation took two hours. Immediately after that, it was time to activate the spell formation.
An Lin and Xiao Chou were the main operators of the spell formation. They stood on opposite ends of the spell formation and injected their vital energy into the spell formation to guide the energy.
The spell formation was activated, and the projection of an ancient golden dragon appeared between heaven and earth with boundless majesty. The essence of all the materials was drawn upon by the spell formation and transformed into thin streams that flowed into Bei Lian's body, cleansing her bloodline that had become unbearably mottled.
It was very easy to completely destroy something, but it was many times more difficult to restore something that had been destroyed. It was like smashing a priceless piece of porcelain and restoring a broken piece of porcelain to its original state. The two were on completely different levels of difficulty.
The first step now was to purify Bei Lian's bloodline and remove the impurities. This step was equivalent to piecing together a broken piece of porcelain according to its original appearance.
The second step was to reactivate the bloodline that had already died. This was a process from death to life. It was equivalent to piecing together the broken pieces and combining them together to form the original piece of porcelain. This was a miraculous step.
Before they knew it, they had already reached the second step. The spell formation began to spin more violently as the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth and spirit stones quickly flowed into the spell formation, causing the projection of the golden dragon to become more and more substantial.
All of the materials quickly withered and their energy was absorbed by the golden dragon before being injected into Bei Lian's body.
A withered tree was given a new lease on life …
After what seemed like an eternity, a joyous dragon's roar reverberated throughout heaven and earth.
It was as if it was saying, "I, the Dragon Princess, have returned!"
That's right, the cold and confident Dragon Princess had returned.
Bei Lian stood up straight and sensed the surging life force within her bloodline.
This life force was even more powerful than before she had sacrificed her bloodline!
An Lin was completely exhausted and lay on the ground with sweat pouring down his face. He swallowed an energy replenishing spirit pill.
His body hadn't fully recovered in the first place, and after such a torment, he really felt like he couldn't stand up anymore.
"Haha, see, the Dragon Princess, you were right to trust me. I've succeeded, haven't I?" An Lin chuckled triumphantly.
To be honest, he wasn't very confident before he started the spell formation. After all, he had the theoretical knowledge, but he hadn't tried it out yet. Who knew what would go wrong along the way?
But after An Lin heard that dragon's roar, he knew he had succeeded!
Bei Lian stared at An Lin with a complex expression.
She had sacrificed her bloodline to save An Lin's life. She didn't think too much about it at the time, nor did she expect that An Lin would return a dozen or so days later with the materials that could reactivate her bloodline and give her a new lease on life.
"Thank you."
Bei Lian didn't know what to say and only managed to utter these two words after thinking for a long time.
An Lin waved his hands with a smile. "No need to thank me. If it weren't for you, I would've died in Bo Lan City!"
"This is to repay you for saving my life. Also, my life is more valuable than yours, so it won't be so easy to repay this debt. Hmm … I don't think I have anything to give you right now, but one day, I'll make a meteoric rise and my name will resound throughout the entire continent. When that time comes, I'll protect you! "
Bei Lian pursed her lips into a smile. "Alright, then I'll have to hug you tightly."
An Lin nodded with a matter-of-fact expression. "Then what do you plan to do next?"
Bei Lian naturally knew what An Lin was asking. Now that she had recovered the power of her bloodline, she could regain her status in the Dragon Court at any time if she wanted to.
But … did she really have to go back?
A friend in need was a friend indeed.
When everyone learned that her bloodline had been crippled and her cultivation base had stagnated, all of her seemingly friendly siblings, with the exception of Yin Yu, became extremely cold and indifferent. There wasn't even a single hypocritical expression of concern for her. Her father even ignored her wishes and forcefully betrothed her to Xia Ze.
Even though she knew that her family's personalities were like this, when it really happened to her, she was still bitterly disappointed. Was this kind of heartless family, a family that was only supported by a bloodline from a different mother, really worth cherishing?
"I don't want to go back." Bei Lian took a deep breath and smiled.
After leaving the Dragon Court, she would lose all of her cultivation resources, cultivation methods, pills, spirit stones, materials, everything. She would become an itinerant cultivator, and she would have to fight for everything on her own …
But for some reason, she just didn't want to go back.
An Lin could understand her decision. What f * cking era was this? How could arranged marriages still be popular in the cultivation world? Just this alone made him dislike the Dragon Court.
Wasn't this illegal?!
"An Lin, remember to pass on a message to Yin Yu when you go to the Dragon Court. Tell her that my bloodline has already recovered, and I'm going to travel the continent for a few years. Tell her not to worry, and tell her to keep this a secret for me."
"Er, you're not going to tell her yourself?"
"That's enough. Emotions are easily expended. We've already bid farewell once, what a waste of emotions if we have to do it again."
"… You've left me speechless."
"Then, An Lin, we'll meet again if fate wills it!"
"Goodbye, Dragon Princess."
Bei Lian looked at An Lin with a gentle expression, as if she had a million words to say. But in the end, she only smiled like a spring breeze, waved her hand, and flew away.
From then on, there was one more person in the corner of her heart, and he was labeled as someone she liked.
