Seeing him like this, the man in white wanted to beat him up. He continued, "Last time I told you not to do anything to Xuan Bing Pavilion. What did you do? You urged Leng Qingqiu to kill Xuan Bing Pavilion's people! Because of this, Xuan Bing Pavilion lost two elders. If I didn't plead, my adoptive father would've killed you. "
When he spoke up to here, he took a deep breath and calmed his heart before he continued. "I spent a great deal of effort to get Foster Father to allow you to head to Hundred Flowers City, and it's for the sake of allowing you to atone for your crimes with meritorious service. Perform well for me. At that time, you'll gain meritorious service, and I'll gain glory as well."
"You've told me this hundreds of times. I know you're good to me. You're my brother. If you don't treat me well, who will? Don't worry, I won't cause any more trouble. I won't get in the way of you becoming the future leader of the Jiuhua Alliance," Lin Zeyu said impatiently.
The man in white paused for a moment before replying, "As long as you understand."
Watching the man in white leave, Lin Zeyu sneered inwardly. Isn't it all for the position of leader? You make it sound like it's for my own good. Isn't it to prevent me from becoming a target for others to attack you?
…
It was night and everyone was resting. Zhao Ying was meditating in her room when she heard a voice, "Sister Ying, can I come in?"
Hearing this voice, Zhao Ying frowned. Seeing Hua Yuling, she couldn't help but think of the past. It's been so many years, and in the end, neither she nor Hua Yuling were able to get anything out of it. She couldn't help but smile. How laughable it was back then.
She calmed herself down and said, "Come in."
Hearing Zhao Ying's words, Hua Yuling pushed the door open. Looking at Zhao Ying, Hua Yuling smiled, "There are so many people today, so it's not a good time to catch up with you. Congratulations on breaking through to the Virtualized Realm."
"What's there to congratulate? So what if I'm strong?" Zhao Ying shook her head.
Hua Yuling was a little surprised, "You still haven't solved your problem? I thought that the knot in your heart had been resolved, so I naturally broke through. "
Zhao Ying frowned again and said, "Can you not mention this again?"
Hua Yuling couldn't help but smile, "So many years have passed. You and I have grown from young girls to this age. What's there to fuss about? Sister Ying, you're too stubborn."
Zhao Ying did not answer. Hua Yuling paused and said, "Did Traceless go to find you again?"
"Him? Humph, he still has the face to look for me? If it wasn't for him, how could my child … Forget it, I don't want to talk about him. "Zhao Ying's anger surged, but she forcefully suppressed it.
"You can't blame Wuhen for this. After all, he's the heir of the Jiuhua Alliance. He had no choice. Besides, he was willing to kill that woman for you, even if it meant offending the Sacred Temple of Eight Directions. You can see his affection for you. Why are you so fixated on this?" Hua Yuling advised.
Zhao Ying huffed and said, "You don't have to say anything more. I said that unless he returns my son to me, he shouldn't come to see me again."
Hua Yuling couldn't help but chuckle. "Sister Ying, you're still young for a warrior. As long as you're willing to reconcile with Traceless, it's not impossible for you to have another child."
"You!" Zhao Ying glared at Hua Yuling. "Are you here to quarrel with me?"
Hua Yuling waved her hand and said, "Don't be so angry. We used to be good sisters, but we almost became enemies because of a man. In the end, I'm still alone, and you … Your heart is full of scars. It's laughable. But I'm not here today to talk about this. "
"Then what do you want to talk about?" Zhao Ying was getting impatient. She had been cultivating in peace because she didn't want to think about the past. But now, Hua Yuling kept bringing it up.
Hua Yuling didn't waste time and said directly, "Don't you think that your good disciple, Lu Xuan, is similar to Traceless?"
Zhao Ying was stunned. "You mean?"
"I know most of the things that happened to Lu Xuan on his path of cultivation. I can't deny that he is very lucky. But if he didn't have enough talent, how could he have achieved so much at such a young age?" Hua Yuling explained slowly.
"You and I both know that the more powerful a warrior is, the harder it is to give birth to a child. But at the same time, his talent is also very high. Now, not only does Lu Xuan look a little similar, but he is also very talented. Even his name has the word 'Xuan' in it. Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence? "
Zhao Ying shook her head and said, "Actually, when I first saw Lu Xuan, I had the same feeling too. But I checked on Lu Xuan's background. He was indeed born and raised in Qingshan Town. He didn't appear out of nowhere. Moreover, that woman brought my son's corpse to me. How could it be fake? "
"That's not true. Back then, that woman was determined to kill you and your son. If even you could easily find out that Lu Xuan's background was fake, how could she not have found out? Back then, you let your subordinate escape with Xuan 'er. He's also an extremely clever person. If he really wanted to save Xuan' er, he would definitely have made a foolproof arrangement. "Hua Yuling was a bystander, so her analysis was clear and logical.
Hearing what she said, Zhao Ying couldn't help but be tempted. Could Lu Xuan really be her child? He didn't die under that woman's demonic claws?
"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhao Ying was confused by her concern. Her mind was in a mess and she had no idea.
Hua Yuling said slowly, "Test the blood to find out who he is!"
"It's not good to find Lu Xuan just like that. If he isn't, wouldn't it be awkward?" Zhao Ying said hesitantly. Actually, she was just worried that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Hua Yuling smiled. "No matter if it's your disciple or my disciple, they both have an unclear relationship with Lu Xuan. It's easy to get a drop of his blood."
Speaking up to this point, Zhao Ying couldn't help but glare at Hua Yuling. "You raised a good disciple. Back then, you fought with me for my man. Now, your disciple is fighting with my disciple."
Hua Yuling wasn't convinced. "Back then, we were competing fairly. Now, Xiangyi and Bing 'er are competing fairly too. Who says who belongs to who? Besides, Lu Xuan is much more of a playboy than Wuhen. Look at all the women around him. I don't want to depend on him. I don't want to put my heart on him, lest I get wronged. "
Zhao Ying waved her hand. "I don't want to talk to you about this now. Think of a way to get me a drop of Lu Xuan's blood."
Hua Yuling smiled and suddenly took out a jade bottle. "I already thought of this. I asked Xiangyi to get a drop of Lu Xuan's blood. I have to say, Lu Xuan was really unguarded against Xiangyi. Without saying a word, he made a cut and poured a bottle of blood for Xiangyi."
Looking at the jade bottle, Zhao Ying's heart suddenly tensed up. Her voice was a little hoarse as she said, "Is this really Lu Xuan's blood?"
"Absolutely!" Hua Yuling nodded. Then, she took out a silver bowl and poured some water into it. Then, she carefully poured the blood from the bottle into the bowl. Suddenly, Lu Xuan's blood floated in the bowl. Hua Yuling signaled to Zhao Ying. Now, she only needed her blood.
Zhao Ying took a deep breath and took out her left hand. Even with her Virtualized Realm strength, her hand was still shaking. It was clear how nervous she was.
Then, a white light flashed. Zhao Ying made a cut and let a few drops of blood fall into the silver bowl.
The drops of blood carried Zhao Ying's great hope. She wanted to see, but she didn't dare to. In the end, she forced herself to watch.
Among the drops of blood, some were Lu Xuan's, and some were Zhao Ying's. As long as they merged, it would prove that Lu Xuan was Zhao Ying's "dead" son — Ye Yunxuan!
The blood floated in the water. Finally, the two drops of blood touched each other. This time, Hua Yuling and Zhao Ying both stared at each other.
However, after three seconds, the two drops of blood still showed no signs of merging. Zhao Ying panicked and said, "Why aren't they merging?"
Hua Yuling's heart gradually sank. She was the one who brought this hope to Zhao Ying. She thought it was a sure thing, but she didn't expect this result. Even though Zhao Ying would be extremely disappointed, she still said, "Looks like … I guessed wrong. There really are such coincidences."
"Let's wait." Zhao Ying's breathing was extremely heavy. She wanted to use her energy to forcefully merge the two drops of blood.
However, ten seconds had passed and the two drops of blood showed no signs of merging.
Zhao Ying suddenly exhaled and forcefully closed her eyes. At that moment, she seemed to have used up all the energy in her body. The blood was incompatible, which undoubtedly proved that she and Lu Xuan weren't related by blood.
Hua Yuling couldn't bear it. The feeling of falling from heaven to hell was extremely cruel. She comforted her, "Actually, the blood test might not be accurate. Maybe Lu Xuan's blood is no longer fresh. Let's try again next time."
"There's no need." Zhao Ying gently waved her hand. "I have already accepted this result. I don't want to be agitated anymore. Yuling, thank you for thinking so much for me."
"Don't say that. We are good sisters. I originally wanted to use this good news to celebrate our reconciliation. Unfortunately, the heavens don't go according to our wishes." Hua Yuling's interest dropped. She still couldn't understand why there was such a coincidence. However, the incompatible blood in front of her was the truth.
Lu Xuan didn't know that after Ruo Xiangyi took his blood, she gave it to Hua Yuling to help him and Zhao Ying in the blood test. If he knew about this, he might not have given his blood to Ruo Xiangyi because he knew that his blood couldn't be used for the blood test.
His Azure Dragon bloodline had reached rank 3 and reached the level of blood essence regeneration. His entire body's blood was already permeated by the Azure Dragon bloodline. How could he use it for the blood test?
