"Yes, just a blood test will do!"
People began saying. Yi Yun's heart jumped. Ever since he came to this world, he had lost all his memories of this body.
And later on, Yi Yun did not see Jiang Xiaorou bleed, so he really did not know the color of Jiang Xiaorou's blood.
"Yi Yun, I never expected that you would encounter such a thing. I really pity you. Tsk Tsk …"
A gloating voice sounded. Yi Yun looked up and saw that the person who spoke was Yang Dingkun.
The two brothers, Yang Dingkun and Yang Yuefeng, also appeared in the crowd. As the younger generation of the Chu royal residence, they were considered the masters here.
Over the past few days, as everyone was temporarily staying in the Chu royal residence, the two of them had an obvious increase in status amongst the elites in the Tai Ah Divine City.
Of course, they were still far from Yi Yun. In the Tai Ah Divine City, people respected the strong. Yi Yun's status was earned through his strength, so he was different from the two Yang brothers.
Hence, even after returning to the Chu royal residence, Yang Yuefeng and Yang Dingkun would usually avoid Yi Yun. Today, when they saw that Yi Yun's sister might be a member of the Desolate race, they were pleasantly surprised. They never expected that such a thing would happen to Yi Yun.
If this matter was proven to be true, it would be interesting.
With Jiang Xiaorou's identity, they could kick Yi Yun while he was down.
Yi Yun's eyes turned cold. These two fellows and Yang Haoran, who had lost his arm, were like venomous snakes hiding behind him, ready to bite him at any time.
But unfortunately, Yi Yun could not do anything to them in the current situation.
At this moment, the crowd made way as an invisible aura gradually approached.
Yi Yun stood up and saw that he was being surrounded by people. Shen Tu Nantian slowly walked out.
Shen Tu Nantian was still dressed in azure clothes. He gave people the feeling that he was like a cool breeze. His temperament was soft and he looked calm, without any sharpness.
But … facing Shen Tu Nantian, Yi Yun did not know why but he felt a sense of pressure.
"This is the place where you found the Desolate race spy?" Shen Tu Nantian asked as he looked at Jiang Xiaorou, "Is it you?"
Shen Tu Nantian smiled. Facing the azure-clothed man, Jiang Xiaorou held her breath. She hid behind Yi Yun. For some reason, Jiang Xiaorou felt extreme fear in front of Shen Tu Nantian.
Yi Yun frowned. Shentu Nantian sure came fast.
If not for Shen Tu Nantian, Yi Yun felt that with his present status, he would not have been able to do anything. Even if Jiang Xiaorou's identity was unclear, it should not be a problem if he tried his best to protect her. After all, Jiang Xiaorou was a real mortal girl. Even if the Sage used his Heaven's Eye to check, it would be the same.
A mortal woman shouldn't be subjected to such harsh treatment.
But Shen Tu Nantian was different. Yi Yun did not know him. Furthermore, he seemed to have a deep hatred with the Desolate race.
"Yes. That's her! We used the Desolate Mirror Stone to test her, but it turned purple. There's definitely something wrong with her, but there's someone who wants to protect her. "
As the guard spoke, he pointed at Yi Yun.
Shen Tu Nantian chuckled and looked at Yi Yun, "This girl seems to have an extraordinary relationship with you?"
"She is my sister!" Yi Yun said solemnly. He had said this many times today.
"Blood sister?" Shen Tu Nantian asked.
Yi Yun hesitated for a moment before shaking his head, "No!"
"Then does that mean she was adopted by your parents?"
Hearing Shen Tu Nantian's questioning, Yi Yun's heart sank. Although he was extremely unwilling, he still nodded, "Yes!"
"Where was she adopted?" Shen Tu Nantian asked again.
Yi Yun's heart turned colder, "Cloud Wilderness!"
Jiang Xiaorou's background was extremely disadvantageous to her identity. However, Yi Yun could not lie about this, because many people knew about his family situation.
"The Cloud Wilderness is also a desolate land. There are many desolate beasts! In the depths of the Cloud Wilderness, there are also the Desolate race! You adopted a girl of unknown origins in the Cloud Wilderness, so it's impossible for her to be from the Desolate race! "
As Shen Tu Nantian said this, Yang Dingkun and company were gloating. It seemed like it was very likely!
Yi Yun clenched his fists. He knew that with his strength, he was definitely not Shen Tu Nantian's match. If Shen Tu Nantian really wanted to do something to Jiang Xiaorou, Yi Yun really did not know what to do.
Attacking Shen Tu Nantian was like striking a rock with an egg. If he did that, he might anger Shen Tu Nantian, and it would have the opposite effect!
Seeing Yi Yun's reaction, Shen Tu Nantian chuckled, "It looks like you care a lot about your sister. Relax. Even if she is from the Desolate race, as long as she knows nothing about the Shepherd Boy, and is just a mortal of the Desolate race who was accidentally adopted by you, then I might let her off once because of you, but I will definitely place some restrictions on her body!"
When Shen Tu Nantian said this, Yi Yun felt relieved. He never expected that Shen Tu Nantian would actually give in.
Was this because of his own face?
Yi Yun found it a bit unbelievable. Although he was considered a figure in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, he was probably nothing in Shen Tu Nantian's eyes.
"Someone, test her blood."
Shen Tu Nantian wiped his smile and gave the order.
A sharp knife was presented. The Chu royal residence's guards reached out to grab it.
"Hold on, I'll do it myself!" Yi Yun stopped the eager guard. That would be testing Jiang Xiaorou's body, so how could he be at ease leaving it to others? Besides, this guy was not on good terms with him, and it was possible that Yang Dingkun would send a voice transmission to get them to do something.
"Let him do it." Shen Tu Nantian said as he gave Jiang Xiaorou a meaningful glance. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Yi Yun did not take out the knife, but instead grabbed Jiang Xiaorou's hand, "Sis Xiaorou, I'll do it. It won't hurt."
"Alright." Jiang Xiaorou nodded.
Yi Yun stretched out his index finger and gently swiped across Jiang Xiaorou's palm. He used his Yuan Qi as a knife, making it extremely sharp.
Almost without feeling any pain, Jiang Xiaorou's palm was sliced open.
Blood slowly flowed out of the knife's wound.
At that moment, Yi Yun held his breath! He was really afraid of seeing that fatal silver color.
Everyone else was also staring at Jiang Xiaorou's palm.
"Pa Da!"
A drop of blood dripped down onto the limestone slabs. It gently shattered and reflected the setting sun's faint light, making it look like a red gem.
"Red blood!"
Yi Yun heaved a sigh of relief. He had never felt that the color of blood was so bright and beautiful!
Jiang Xiaorou was after all his elder sister, and not a member of the Desolate race!
Although there were some problems with her identity, Yi Yun did not care about that. Regardless of Jiang Xiaorou's background, he only knew that they had survived the most difficult days of the Cloud Wilderness by relying on each other. This kind of relationship, where blood was thicker than water, was something no one could compare with.
Although the current Yi Yun had all sorts of relationships with many people, he was now an elite of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. As for the Yi Yun in the Cloud Wilderness, he was just a mortal. He could be said to be a burden.
It was Jiang Xiaorou who did not abandon him, and they had each other to depend on.
"It's actually red, what's going on …" The two guards of the Chu royal residence could not believe it. It was not easy for them to find a Desolate race spy, but the outcome was wrong.
"F * * k, this kid's luck is good, allowing him to escape this calamity. But it's strange. Since that girl's body is bleeding red blood, why did she make the Desolate Mirror Stone glow?"
Yang Dingkun and Yang Yuefeng were depressed. They thought that capturing Yi Yun would be a big problem. Even if they could not use this to shake Yi Yun's position, they would be happy to kill his sister and make Yi Yun grieve a little.
But now, it was all for naught.
"There shouldn't be a problem …"
Someone asked Shen Tu Nantian.
"I knew it. How could Yi Yun's sister be a member of the Desolate race." Some of the Tai Ah Divine City cultivators who revered Yi Yun began to speak up for Yi Yun.
Shen Tu Nantian gently stroked his chin. He looked at Jiang Xiaorou in silence. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Young master Nantian, can we go now?" Yi Yun asked Shen Tu Nantian while protecting Jiang Xiaorou behind him. He was still vigilant. As long as he did not leave this person's field of vision, he would feel like there was a needle at his back, making it difficult for him to feel at ease.
However, Shen Tu Nantian did not answer. He seemed to recall something and fell into deep thought.
He suddenly slowly walked towards Jiang Xiaorou. Jiang Xiaorou's heart shrank as she subconsciously took a few steps back.
However, Shen Tu Nantian did not press forward. Instead, he stood not far from Jiang Xiaorou. With a smile on his face, he gently squatted down and looked attentively at the drop of blood on the ground.
This was Jiang Xiaorou's blood.
A few seconds later, Shen Tu Nantian stretched out his finger and gently touched the drop of blood.
Suddenly, a strange smile bloomed on his lips. He looked up at Jiang Xiaorou and said softly, "Your surname is Jiang, right?"
Jiang Xiaorou's heart sank. Facing Shen Tu Nantian's smile, her face instantly turned pale, "You …"
Beside Jiang Xiaorou, Yi Yun was also extremely vigilant. In the previous conversations, no one had mentioned the name "Jiang Xiaorou", but Shen Tu Nantian knew Jiang Xiaorou's surname!
Shen Tu Nantian stood up as the smile on his face became more radiant. It was so radiant that it looked sinister, "I think I know who you are … I never expected to find you here!"
