Sheng Yang hurriedly said, âYin Rong isnât bad.â
âYin Rong?â Mrs. Sheng frowned and thought about it before saying, âYin Rong⦠is she the girl who awakened the three-eyed unicorn?â
âYeah.â
Sheng Xiao nodded. âYin Rong is indeed capable.â
âThat child must be quite impressive to receive your acknowledgment. Howeverâ¦â Mrs. Sheng thought of something and frowned.â Yin Rong isnât a direct descendant of the Yin family. Sheâs from a branch of the Yin family. Because sheâs quite talented, I heard that Yin Mingchong adopted her some time ago. â
âBut legacies only recognize bloodlines.â Sheng Yang felt pity for Yin Rong. âYin Rong didnât even have the chance to obtain the inheritance, right?â
âI heard something.â It was unclear what she was thinking, but Mrs. Sheng didnât want to reveal the contents of the news.
But Sheng Yang wanted to get to the bottom of it. âWhat news?â
Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang looked at her curiously.
Mrs. Sheng bent down and picked up the civet cat on the ground. She said with a sad expression, âI heard that Yin Rong was being groomed as the next heir by Yin Mingchong.â
Sheng Xiao nodded. âYin Rong is the most outstanding child in the Yin family in her generation. Itâs not strange that she will become the heir.â
Sheng Yang also ridiculed, âAlthough Yin Fuâs green ghost octopus can evolve, her talent is inferior to Yin Rongâs and her cultivation level will definitely not be higher than Yin Rongâs in the future. Itâs a wise move for Patriarch Yin to choose Yin Rong as his successor.â
âThatâs not what I meant.â Mrs. Sheng sighed and said, âI heard that Yin Mingchong wants Yin Rong to be a direct descendant of the Yin family.â
âWhat?â Sheng Xiao, Yu Huang, and Sheng Yang were shocked. âBloodline cannot be changed. Yin Rong is from a side family. This is an unchangeable fact.â
âHave you all heard of Blood Purification?â
The three of them instantly fell silent when they heard this.
Yu Huang was silent because she had never heard of such a technique.
Sheng Xiao and Sheng Yang were silent because they knew very well what the Blood Purification Technique was.
Yu Huang asked Sheng Xiao, âWhatâs the Blood Purification Technique?â
A look of pity flashed across Sheng Xiaoâs eyes. He explained the principle of the Blood Purification Technique. âBlood Purification is a forbidden technique. It is publicly recognized as one of the top ten most cruel techniques. This technique requires the person who changes his blood to watch every drop of his blood drain away while he is conscious.â
âThen, theyâll pour drops of the target blood into his body.
âCan that person still live?â This was not a simple blood transfusion. This was a f*cking blood change! Her entire body was undergoing a bloodline change!
âIf thereâs a rejection, Yin Rong will die!â
âThatâs why I said it was one of the cruelest techniques.â
Be it purification or transfusion, it was a painful process, not to mention the painful rejection after the blood transfusion.
Yu Huang couldnât figure out why Yin Rong would do this. She said, âYin Rong is very capable. Even if she doesnât change her blood and doesnât become a direct descendant, she can still become a powerhouse!â
Sheng Yang told Yu Huang, âYin Rong has a blood feud to take revenge for. She worked hard to cultivate and become stronger because she wanted to rely on the Yin Clan to take revenge for her parents and younger sister who died miserably.â
Yu Huang had never asked about Yin Rongâs background in detail. She looked gentle and kind, and she didnât look like someone who had a blood feud.
Yu Huang asked Sheng Yang, âHow did her parents and sister die?â
Sheng Yang licked his lips and said, âDo you know the Dark Night Ghost Sect?â
Yu Huang had heard of this sect. âYouâre talking about the sect formed by the evil elves of the elven race?â
âYes. Yin Rongâs mother was a high-level elf, but her family was brutally killed by the Dark Night Ghost Sect. The corpse of Yin Rongâs younger sister was even turned into a toy doll that was placed in the underground world for people to play with and admire.â
âItâs impossible for Yin Rong not to take revenge for such a blood feud.â
Yu Huang was shocked. âHow could this beâ¦?â
Sheng Xiao told Yu Huang, âDidnât you realize that Yin Rong is actually a bloodthirsty person?â
âI did find out.â Yin Rong looked gentle and charming, but she was the fiercest in every fight.
Sheng Xiao said, âBecause she has a blood feud and is very vindictive, she has a belligerent personality. But because her mother is a high-level elf, she was born pure. Thatâs why she has a both gentle and bloodthirsty personality.â
âActually, Yin Rongâs Three-Eyed Unicorn is a type of deformed beast. She should have awakened her Unicorn Beast Form, but because she was too vindictive, she awakened her deformed Three-Eyed Unicorn.â
âYin Rong wants to become stronger than anyone. I guess sheâll definitely risk her life to exchange blood. In order to accept the inheritance and become the true successor of the Yin Clan, sheâs willing to pay with her life.â
At this point, Sheng Xiao looked up at Yu Huang with a complicated gaze.
Yin Rong and Yu Huang had the same objective. After they entered the Saint Tomb, the two of them would be arch-enemies. At that time, should Yu Huang consider their friendship and give up the inheritance, or should she disregard everything to obtain the inheritance?
Sheng Xiao couldnât guess Yu Huangâs plan.
Yu Huang had clearly thought of this problem as well. Her brows were tightly knitted, and she was in a difficult position.
âYin Rongâs life has been tough. If she can successfully withstand the Blood Purification, I believe sheâs very likely to obtain the inheritance. Now, she is the one with the most potential in the Yin family. I hope she can succeed.â
Mrs. Sheng stroked the civet catâs neck and said, âYou guys can go ahead and practice. Iâll get going first.â
Madam Sheng was about to leave. Seeing that Yu Huang was still standing with Sheng Xiao and the others, she turned around and asked Yu Huang, âAh Huang, arenât you coming with me?â
Yu Huang was not a direct descendant of the Sheng family. Why was she staying here?
Could it be that since they were newlyweds, she couldnât bear to leave Xiaoâer?
Yu Huang winked at Sheng Xiao, hinting that he should copy the contents of the Bloodline Awakening Technique to her. Sheng Xiao understood her hint and winked at her.
Mrs. Sheng watched as her son and daughter-in-law winked at each other affectionately.
âAre you two hiding something from me?â Mrs. Sheng had a feeling that her son and daughter-in-law were plotting something big. It was agonizing to know that they were hiding something but not be able to guess what it was.
Sheng Xiao waved the Bloodline Awakening Technique in his hand. âNo, I was saying goodbye to her.â
Mrs. Sheng rolled her eyes. âYouâll see each other again at dinner. Do you have to say goodbye?â
âLetâs go, Ah Huang.â
âIâm coming.â Yu Huang left the ancestral hall with Madam Sheng.
Mrs. Sheng had a job. Apart from dealing with family affairs, she was a lawyer in the cultivation world. Occasionally, she would help some beast tamers deal with lawsuits.
After leaving the ancestral hall, Mrs. Sheng said to Yu Huang, âIâve recently taken on a case of adultery and murder of oneâs wife. I might be busy for a while. I donât have time to play with you. Go to the martial arts hall and find them to practice martial arts.â
However, Yu Huang said, âIâll go to the back mountainâs hot spring to cultivate!â
âThat works too.â
