Lu Ye had spared Xiang Yin's life for two reasons. First, he needed to recruit some subordinates. Xiang Yin was strong and smart enough, so she was a perfect candidate. Moreover, if he really killed Xiang Yin, he would have to kill Xuan Yu as well.
Second, he had a way to control Xiang Yin.
Naturally, he wanted her to refine his precious blood and turn her into a Blood Warrior.
Once she became his Blood Warrior, he would no longer have to worry about Xiang Yin betraying him. At that time, she would be as loyal to him as Ma Shangsi!
When the drop of blood appeared on Lu Ye's fingertip, it instantly attracted the attention of Xiang Yin and Xuan Yu.
The two women both felt the powerful attraction this drop of precious blood had towards them. It was an instinctive desire, but at the same time, they could feel the terrifying danger contained within the precious blood.
"What is this?" Xuan Yu asked.
She had never seen precious blood before.
If Yue Yao was a true member of the Blood Tribe, she definitely wouldn't ask such a childish question. Any true member of the Blood Tribe who had reached Yue Yao's level would be able to learn the truth about the treasured blood through different channels.
However, they weren't true vampires in the end. They were only "first-generation vampires" created by the special environment of the Core World. Their understanding of vampires was based on the constant development of their own bloodline.
As such, their understanding of vampires was very one-sided and fragmented.
But no matter what it was, Xuan Yu realized that it wasn't easy to refine. It was definitely a method Lu Ye was using to control his sister.
What surprised her even more was that this drop of blood contained an extremely powerful holy aura. This holy aura was even stronger than when they used their vampires' secret techniques.
While she was still bewildered, Xiang Yin's expression suddenly became resolute. She moved forward while maintaining her kneeling position, opened her small mouth, and sucked on Lu Ye's finger.
Her sudden action startled Lu Ye. Then, he felt a soft, fragrant tongue coiling around his fingertip a few times. It was itchy …
Lu Ye looked up and met Xiang Yin's eyes. He could see the determination in them.
She was a smart woman. She knew that she couldn't refuse him no matter what he said, so she might as well make her stand.
But in the next instant, Xiang Yin's expression changed.
Lu Ye pulled her finger out, got up and went to Xuan Yu. She grabbed her arm and said, "Let's go!"
He activated his magic power and flew into the distance.
Xuan Yu didn't dare to resist. He turned to Xiang Yin and shouted, "Sister!"
The only response she received was Xiang Yin's bloodcurdling screams as a ball of dazzling golden light instantly enveloped the area around her!
After a short while, Lu Ye landed on a mountain a hundred miles away from Xiang Yin. He looked back, but Xiang Yin's figure was nowhere to be seen. There was only a sea of blood floating in the sea of blood. Golden light flashed in the sea of blood, and Xiang Yin's screams continued. Inside the sea of blood, her magic power fluctuated.
Although Xuan Yu didn't know what was going on, he knew his sister was in a bad situation. He looked at Lu Ye nervously and asked, "What happened to Xiang Yin?"
Lu Ye didn't want to answer at first, but he considered that if Xiang Yin succeeded in refining the treasure blood, the two sisters would have to work for him in the future. He explained, "Normally speaking, if a Blood Tribe member wants to obtain holiness, they have to refine holy blood! The so-called holy blood should be the blood left behind by the Blood Ancestor after his death. If a Blood Tribe member successfully refines it, they can call themselves a Holy Sovereign. Holy Sovereigns have a very high status in the Blood Tribe, far surpassing ordinary Blood Tribe members. This is because their holiness can suppress ordinary Blood Tribe members, and the upper limit of their growth is also higher. However, the process of refining holy blood is incomparably dangerous, and there is a chance of death at any time. "
Xuan Yu's face paled. "Daoist Brother bestowed … holy blood?"
Lu Ye didn't say anything. His precious blood was no different from saint blood. It wasn't wrong to call it saint blood. Back then, Ma Shangsi's process of refining precious blood was also extremely dangerous. Whether or not Xiang Yin could pass this trial would depend on her own luck.
However, Lu Ye had a faint feeling that Xiang Yin wouldn't die so easily. This drop of Treasure Blood might bring her quite a bit of benefits.
Lu Ye sat down cross-legged and thought back to his gains from observing the crimson moon.
Xuan Yu stood not far in front of him. Her eyes were anxiously staring hundreds of kilometers away. Her slender hands were clenched so tightly that her fingernails dug into her flesh.
After a short while, she seemed to have come to a decision and flew back into the sea of blood.
Lu Ye opened his eyes and looked on in astonishment as her snow-white figure rushed into the sea of blood.
Even though he could stop her, Lu Ye didn't. This was Xuan Yu's own decision. If he tried to stop her, it would only make her angry. Also, from his point of view, if Xiang Yin failed to refine the precious blood and died, he wouldn't be able to let Xuan Yu live.
Since that was the case, it wasn't a bad choice to let the two sisters live and die together.
After Xuan Yu also rushed into the sea of blood, Xiang Yin wasn't the only one screaming in pain …
Time passed by.
The two sisters' screams gradually subsided, and the golden light in the sea of blood disappeared. The sea of blood also slowly closed.
When Lu Ye rushed back, he saw the two sisters hugging each other, their clothes disheveled and their bodies drenched in sweat.
They looked very miserable, especially Xuan Yu. Her face was full of fear. It was obvious that she had a very bad experience refining the treasure blood.
On the other hand, although Xiang Yin's condition wasn't good, her eyes were very bright, as if a door to a new world had been opened. She curled up in her sister's arms and looked at Lu Ye who was descending from the sky. Gasping for breath, she asked, "Is there more?"
Lu Ye stared at her expressionlessly for a while, then said indifferently, "That depends on your performance in the future!"
Black Prison Cliff was where Demon Zhou Ran's cave residence was located.
A great battle was breaking out, and the two sides fighting were Zhou Ran and Xiang Yin.
Two figures were hiding in the sea of blood, making it difficult for others to see the situation clearly. However, judging from Zhou Ran's exasperated shouts, he was undoubtedly at a disadvantage. Moreover, it was an absolute disadvantage …
At this moment, Zhou Ran was undoubtedly very shocked.
Because he knew the details of the Snow Clan's sisters very well, they were no match for him in a one-on-one fight, but today's battle had surprised him.
He had only fought with Xiang Yin for a moment, but he was already at a disadvantage, and the situation was getting worse and worse.
The reason was that his own Divine Nature was suppressed, so he couldn't use his full strength.
Zhou Ran didn't understand what was going on. When he was fighting with Xiang Yin a few days ago, her Divine Nature was no different from his, so why did she change so much in just a short period of time?
The sea of blood suddenly dissipated, and the two sides fighting stood in the air.
"Do you admit defeat?" Xiang Yin looked at Zhou Ran triumphantly.
Zhou Ran was annoyed. How could he admit defeat? Suppressing his anger, he said, "Xiang Yin, we haven't interfered with each other for so many years, so why do you have to offend me today?"
Xiang Yin pursed her lips and smiled, "Zhou Ran, let's not talk about the past anymore. From now on, the situation in this domain will change greatly. I know that you have been considering whether or not to join Saint Blood Peak all these years, but I advise you to make a good choice."
Zhou Ran was confused. "What choice?"
Xiang Yin didn't say anything. She just turned her head and looked to the side.
Zhou Ran followed her gaze and found that there were two more figures there. One was the human with a strong sense of holiness that she had seen before, and the other was Xuan Yu. However, at this moment, Xuan Yu was standing not far behind the young man like a maid.
Zhou Ran was puzzled. As far as he knew, this young man had already left, so why had he come back?
When facing Xiang Yin, he still had the courage to struggle, but when facing Lu Ye, he didn't even dare to think about it. The terror of the Divine Nature's suppression was still vivid in his mind, and he often felt his heart palpitate.
"We sisters have already become the High Lord's subordinates, and we wish to help the High Lord in his great undertaking. We came to find you today to give you a chance. Zhou Ran, what will you choose?"
This short sentence shook Zhou Ran. He immediately realized that this newcomer who had just arrived in this realm was someone who didn't want to be left out. He was ambitious!
No wonder Xiang Yin said that the power structure of this realm would change. Yue Yao's Middle Stage cultivation wasn't much, but her terrifying Divine Nature was undoubtedly her greatest asset.
This person's entry would definitely stir up the situation in this realm.
Zhou Ran's thoughts turned, and he smiled bitterly. "Do I have a choice?"
If he said a single word of "no", he would immediately be suppressed to death!
He sighed inwardly. He had persevered for several hundred years, but in the end, he still couldn't stand alone. However, he was mentally prepared to rely on others. Just as Xiang Yin had said, he had been considering whether or not to rely on the Sacred Blood Mountain. Only by relying on the Sacred Blood Mountain would he be able to obtain Spirit Jades to maintain his cultivation.
Now, before he could even go to the Sacred Blood Mountain, he was going to be forcibly taken in …
He looked in Lu Ye's direction and cupped his fists. "Zhou Ran greets the High Lord!"
Lu Ye nodded slightly.
Xiang Yin looked at Zhou Ran with a smile. "Don't feel like you've lost out. Being able to serve the High Lord is a good thing that others can't even dream of. Do you know why my Divine Nature has improved so much recently?"
Zhou Ran's heart skipped a beat. "Could it be …" He had been wondering about this for a long time. Everyone's Divine Nature improved by bathing in the Blood Rain or eating spirit plants that were watered by the Blood Rain. Thus, although some people had been in this realm for a long time, the difference between them wasn't that great. After all, bathing in the Blood Rain didn't bring much improvement. It was just a kind of accumulation.
Xiang Yin's Divine Nature had improved so much, which was obviously abnormal. Combined with what she had just said and the terrifying suppression Lu Ye had displayed, Zhou Ran couldn't help but think of something.
Xiang Yin deliberately mystified him. "That depends on your performance!"
Zhou Ran immediately declared, "Since I've become the High Lord's subordinate, Zhou Ran will do anything for you!"
Xiang Yin continued, "Let me tell you something else. Yesterday, the Sacred Blood Mountain sent a Late Stage Yue Yao with a red talisman to assassinate the High Lord. In the end, the High Lord killed her!"
