Chapter 198: Chapter 198: Who Are You Really (Part 4)
“It’s those old fellas,” Madam Holy Moon’s eyebrows quirked slightly, “I planned to grant you exceptional access to the Holy Spirit Pond so you could go in and cultivate, but those elders had their qualms. After all, the Holy Spirit Pond can only be opened once every three years, and if opened as an exception, it would require two Innate powers.”
As she spoke, her voice paused slightly, “The main point is, this approach is unfair, highly unfair to others, so those elders are reluctant to open the Holy Spirit Pond now. I wanted to hear Yue’er’s opinion. If you wish to enter and cultivate in the Holy Spirit Pond, your mother will certainly send you in.”
Mu Ruyue frowned slightly and said, “I am indeed interested in the Holy Spirit Pond, but isn’t it inappropriate for the Xiao Family to break the rules just for my sake? The elders’ opinions also make some sense.”
Madam Holy Moon had always treated her well, and Ruyue didn’t want this matter to burden her.
“Yue’er, there is another way,” Madam Holy Moon took Mu Ruyue’s hand and pulled her to sit down in front of the dais, smiling gracefully, “The Xiao Family has already acknowledged you as a member, and next is the Bloodline Test. If your bloodline purity turns out to be very high, then those elders won’t have anything to say.”
“Bloodline Test?” Mu Ruyue raised an eyebrow lightly.
“Let me explain,” Xiao Tianyu stood up, walked over to Mu Ruyue, “In major families, the lineage is also a critical issue. Our Xiao Family selects the Family Head based on bloodline purity as well. If your bloodline is highly concentrated, then you will hold a high status in the Xiao Family. Then nobody will question whatever you wish to do. Of course, this is also your Grandpa’s hope. Among our Xiao Family’s new generation, the highest bloodline purity belongs to your brother Xiao Feng, which stands at eighty percent.”
I wonder if this daughter can surpass that boy.
Xiao Tianyu’s eyes twinkled a few times, indeed quite interested…
“Alright, when is the test?”
Mu Ruyue gently touched her chin and gave a slight nod, “Then I’ll go back and prepare.”
She too was curious about the extent of her bloodline purity…
After leaving the family hall, Mu Ruyue didn’t linger and returned to her room, only to find Yan Jin and Ye Wuchen confronting each other with clashing swords inside her chamber.
Streams of electricity were passing between the two men.
Upon seeing Mu Ruyue enter, Ye Wuchen’s lips curled up in a smile, “Muer, you’re here?”
“Ye Wuchen!” Yan Jin’s eyes turned cold, his domineering aura fixated on the man in front of him, “I’ll ask you one more time, who is this woman called Luo Yi?”
“I’ve told you already, we’re just friends.”
Ye Wuchen furrowed his brow, his impatience clear as he glanced at Yan Jin, his dark eyes shimmering with a chill light. He slowly curved his lips, “If you don’t believe me, then there’s nothing I can do.”
“You…” Yan Jin, infuriated, threw a fierce punch at the wall beside him, “Can’t you see that woman’s attitude toward Yue’er is very poor?”
Ye Wuchen glanced at Yan Jin but said nothing. Just as Yan Jin wanted to continue, a faint voice from Mu Ruyue came from the side, “Yan Jin, would you step out for a moment, please?”
“Yue’er?” Yan Jin looked at Mu Ruyue incredulously, upset to see her defend this man, his handsome face clouded with displeasure, “Yue’er, if he doesn’t clarify things today, I won’t leave!”
