Blood God Legion Relatives! Long Yuxue and the Jiang Siblings

"And every time Big Brother isn't by my side..."

"Na'er worries that, what if..."

"You disappear? What would I do?"

Na'er looked at him and placed her pillow on the bed, her adorable eyes filled with unease.

She was not worrying for no reason. Deep in her heart, she had always harbored an indescribable premonition.

It was as though a voice was telling her that the happiness and joy she felt by his side right now were only temporary.

"How could I possibly disappear?"

Seeing the worried look on her face, Jiang Yan was briefly stunned before shaking his head and speaking gently.

"Once two people become entwined, their fates are already bound together. How could either one simply disappear and be separated from the other?"

"Just like the day you and I met. What you held wasn't merely my hand—you also held our future."

Jiang Yan looked at the girl before him, his voice soft.

What they had grasped in that instant was precisely their future.

He knew that, in the original story, Na'er would later split into two people: Na'er and Gu Yue.

He did not know whether he could change that outcome, but he hoped that even if the little girl awakened her memories, she could still remain herself.

"Really?"

"Then... will Na'er's future always have Big Brother in it?"

Na'er was momentarily dazed. Seeming to understand what he meant, her face was flooded with delight as she asked expectantly.

"Of course."

"I'll always be there."

Jiang Yan nodded with a smile.

"Then..."

"Can Na'er sleep with Big Brother tonight?"

Amid her delight, Na'er asked instinctively.

"?"

Jiang Yan fell silent and sighed. Na'er, you got to the point awfully fast.

Even so, seeing the sincerity in her expression, he still told her stories to coax her to sleep. Only when she seemed to have fallen asleep did he finally stop.

He only stopped after hearing her even breathing.

"Good night, Na'er."

Looking at her steady breathing on the bed, Jiang Yan tucked the blanket around her before quietly retreating to the small sofa nearby. He sat cross-legged and began meditating again.

Yet the moment he began meditating, Na'er, who had supposedly been sleeping peacefully, mischievously opened her eyes and spoke in a soft voice only she could hear.

"Mhm!"

"Good night, Big Brother."

"..."

"Dong'er, what do you think?"

Within the sea of consciousness, Qian Renxue had watched everything unfold. A faint premonition arose in her heart as she silently asked.

"What is there to think?"

"I'm watching while sitting down, obviously."

Bibi Dong smiled, her tone as usual.

As long as he liked her, that was enough.

Her and Xue'er's duty was merely to protect him as he grew up, remain by his side, and watch him become the strongest step by step.

"..."

The next afternoon.

When Jiang Yan returned from school, he found that the living room already held five unfamiliar figures: two adults and three children.

Both middle-aged men were striking in appearance, their stern features carrying an air of authority. Even dressed in ordinary casual clothes, they could not conceal the chill emanating from them.

One of them even resembled Jiang Lingli, though he looked far more weathered.

The three children looked somewhat older than him—one boy and two girls—and were also curiously observing him.

But after a single glance, they found it impossible to look away.

"So..."

"So cute!"

The two girls' eyes lit up in unison. Even the boy could not help taking a second look. He had thought the silver-haired girl Na'er was already breathtakingly beautiful, but there was actually someone even more remarkable?

"Grandpa, Uncle Li."

"Who are these...?"

Jiang Yan took in the three children's gazes. His eyes swept over Na'er, who seemed to be lost in thought, and as he sat down beside her, he asked.

"Yan'er, you're back so soon. Let me introduce you and Na'er. This is your Second Uncle, Jiang Shouyue. He's Uncle Li's younger brother and a soldier."

"And this is Uncle Long Tianwu, a warrior who has fought through bloodshed to protect the continent. He once served under me and is as close to your Second Uncle as a brother."

"It's rare for them to get leave, so they brought the children to East Sea for a few days."

Jiang Luochuan spoke with a genial smile, introducing them.

"Second Uncle, Uncle Long."

Hearing this, Jiang Yan and Na'er greeted them together, their eyes falling upon the two men.

"Hello, Yan'er. Hello, Na'er."

"Yan'er truly deserves to be called a genius. Just as Elder Jiang said, he's already so handsome and distinguished at such a young age."

Long Tianwu laughed heartily in response. His gaze fell on Jiang Yan, and he could not conceal the surprise on his face.

"Old Long, don't just praise Yan'er. Little Na'er is just as wonderful. The two siblings are a perfect pair of golden boy and jade girl."

Jiang Shouyue was equally generous with his praise. Looking at Na'er, who was clearly a little shy, he spoke gently.

"Thank you..."

Upon being praised, Na'er thanked him bashfully, feeling much less nervous.

However, when Jiang Yan heard the name Long Tianwu, an inexplicable sense of familiarity arose in his heart.

At that thought, the information panels for the two men quietly appeared in his mind—

[Character Information Card: Long Tianwu]

[Martial Soul: Ice-Spine Dragon. Level 92 assault-type Titled Douluo. Commander of the Iron Division of the Blood God Legion. Black mecha pilot.]

[Talent Traits: Iron Will (Black), Lifetime of Service (Black), Outstanding Talent (Black), Body That Protects the Nation (Red)]

[Character Information Card: Jiang Shouyue]

[Martial Soul: Tyrannosaurus Rex. Level 89 assault-type Soul Douluo. Deputy Commander of the Iron Division of the Blood God Legion. Black mecha pilot. Level 7 blacksmith.]

[Talent Traits: Iron Will (Black), Slightly...]

"So it really is him."

Jiang Yan took in all the information.

Long Tianwu, the future deputy commander of the Blood God Legion. He was also Tang Wulin's superior in the original story, a major figure in the Blood God Legion and the right-hand man of Mirror Douluo.

The identities of the three children beside them were now obvious as well.

"Wuyue, Qiyue."

"Why don't you greet your brother?"

At that moment, Jiang Shouyue looked toward his son and daughter beside him and said with a smile.

"Mhm! My name is Jiang Wuyue. My Martial Soul is the Tyrannosaurus Rex. I'm one year older than you, a Level 14 Soul Master. Nice to meet you, Jiang Yan."

"I heard you're a genius with innate full soul power... I hope we can spar properly in the future and grow stronger together."

The sturdy boy stepped forward with a smile. Though his face looked incredibly cool, he wore a friendly expression as he took the initiative to befriend him.

"And me, my name is Jiang Qiyue."

"My Martial Soul is also the Tyrannosaurus Rex. We're about the same age, so please take care of me in the future."

"I'm also... very happy to meet you."

Standing beside Jiang Wuyue, Jiang Qiyue spoke as well.

She wore her hair in a high ponytail, looking innocent and lively. As she spoke, a trace of shyness showed in her beautiful eyes.

It was only natural to feel embarrassed before beautiful things.

Especially when...

Jiang Yan was really so handsome!

"My name is Long Yuxue. My Martial Soul is the Ice Dragon."

"Please take care of me."

Standing beside Long Tianwu, his daughter spoke slowly as well. A faint smile rested on her beautiful, heroic face, and her tone was gentle.

Having been competitive since childhood, she could remain calm in all matters. Even now, she appeared entirely composed.

There was no way she would be as obsessed with looks as Jiang Qiyue!

But that was only on the surface. In truth, she could hardly deny that her thoughts at this moment were no different from those of her good sister Jiang Qiyue...

She clearly was not supposed to be obsessed with looks.

But this guy...

He really was adorable!

"My name is Jiang Yan. My Martial Soul is the Holy Dragon King. I'm a Level 12 Soul Master, and I'm also very happy to meet all of you."

Looking at the three who had spoken, Jiang Yan wore a smile as well, his tone calm.

Yet inwardly, he could not help sighing.

He had not only made the four little ones of East Sea his underlings—he had now encountered the future Blood God geniuses too.

That truly was unexpected.

"Level 12!"

"You're already Level 12?"

Hearing this, Long Yuxue and Jiang Qiyue both widened their eyes. They had only just awakened their Martial Souls and had not even advanced from innate soul power level nine to level ten yet...

Yet he was already Level 12!?

"Yan'er is already Level 12?"

Long Tianwu and Jiang Shouyue widened their eyes as well, asking in astonishment.

"That's right. Yan'er entered deep meditation on the very day he awakened his Martial Soul. It might be related to that."

Jiang Lingli said with a chuckle, speaking seriously.

His tone was calm, as though he were merely stating the simplest fact. Yet to the others, it completely overturned their understanding.

"Ah... ah?"

"You mean that deep meditation which ordinary Soul Masters might not experience even once in their entire lives?"

Jiang Qiyue took a deep breath and quietly asked.

"His first meditation... was deep meditation?"

Long Yuxue was equally stunned out of her wits. When would she ever be able to show off like him!

"Brother Li, Uncle."

"What else is there that we don't know?"

Jiang Shouyue inhaled sharply as well. Together with Long Tianwu, he looked toward Jiang Luochuan and could not help asking.

"Hahaha, there's quite a lot more!"

The old man replied with a laugh, launching into a detailed account.

"..."

"So."

"Yan'er not only has innate full soul power, a Martial Soul with limitless potential, immense suppression over dragon-type Martial Souls, and a first soul skill that is a domain skill, but he's also..."

"A Level 4 blacksmith?"

Not long after, Jiang Shouyue and Long Tianwu stared at Jiang Yan in unison, seemingly at a loss for words.

Whether it was the pressure from his Martial Soul or the blacksmith's badge in his hand, neither should have had anything to do with someone his age!

Six years old.

Yet he already displayed the bearing of invincibility!

"We..."

"Are we really the same age as him?"

Feeling immense pressure, Long Yuxue quietly poked Jiang Qiyue beside her and could not help asking.

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask—"

Jiang Qiyue shook her head. Looking toward Jiang Yan, she could only tremble inwardly.

The one who regretted things most, however, was her brother Jiang Wuyue.

"I want to fight Jiang Yan—"

"Are you serious?"

"..."

In a corner where no one paid attention.

Na'er had been sitting quietly beside Jiang Yan the entire time. Since she had not awakened her Martial Soul, she could not join the conversation.

But...

She had taken in every one of the three children's gazes. Jiang Wuyue was naturally the first one she ignored, but the other two girls after him...

Made her feel a faint sense of foreboding.

"Still..."

"They're Uncle Jiang's children, so they're relatives, right?"

A thoughtful look flashed through Na'er's eyes as she mused to herself.

Mhm, they were definitely just friends!

"..."
