Chapter 232

The message Li Yang left for them also explained the situation of Shen Ze and the Shennü, and asked them to investigate the Blood God Clan in depth.

Li Yang claimed he was taking Shen Ze back to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace, but their actual destination was the Evil Domain.

One must always be wary of others; Shen Ze her easily manipulated, so she must be careful.

Flower of Evil: "Do you remember why you went to Osmanthus City?"

Li Yang: "?"

The Flower of Evil said sarcastically, "You didn't bring back Lianxin, but you brought back a little white rabbit, right?"

Li Yang: "..." What nonsense is this?

At this moment, Shen Ze spoke up, whispering, "I won't run away, you don't need to..."

His gaze fell on Li Yang's hand that was gripping his waist, and his face turned as red as if it were about to bleed.

He knew that Light of Dawn had no other intentions, but to the Blood God Clan, this action was tantamount to a sexual advance.

Chapter 232

Li Yang didn't think anything of it at first; she did it simply to make teleportation easier.

Seeing Shen Ze's expression at that moment, I couldn't help but feel my palms burning slightly.

As soon as Li Yang let go, the Flower of Evil said coolly, "Your teacher is here."

Si Kui was busy at the time, but after hearing the reminder from the Flower of Evil, she quickly appeared in front of Li Yang.

Little Pear Blossom returned not long after she left. Could something have happened in Fenglie City?

Si Kui looked anxious, but what she saw was a somewhat uncomfortable Li Yang, and a strange boy with rabbit ears whose face was as red as the clouds on the horizon.

Si Kui: "?"

Flower of Evil: "Teacher, you must do something about her! She doesn't do anything productive, all she does is flirt with other women!"

Si Kui: "..."

She ignored the Flower of Evil and instead looked at Li Yang: "Why are you back so soon?"

Li Yang also heard the "complaint" from the Flower of Flower of Evil. She was speechless and felt inexplicably guilty.

It wasn't that I felt guilty towards him, but rather towards Lianlian.

I have a feeling that Lianlian might be unhappy after seeing Shen Ze.

Of course, Lianlian would never be as loud and boisterous as the Flower of Evil, but sometimes Li Yang would rather Lianxin say more so as not to suffer any grievances.

Upon thinking of Lianxin, Li Yang's expression hardened, and she said to Si Kui, "This is Shen Ze of the Blood God Clan, his sister..."

After Li Yang quickly explained the situation, Si Kui pondered and said, "The Blood God Clan..."

"Teacher, are you aware of this?"

"I've heard of them..." Si Kui hesitated slightly before saying, "This race held a very high position and was once a highly prestigious Realm Domain in the Astral Realm. However, they later chose to attach themselves to the Upper Third Order and remained extremely loyal to them, thus severing all ties with other Realm Domain."

The reason Li Yang brought Shen Ze back to the Evil Domain was to gain a more objective understanding of the Blood God Clan's situation, so that he could effectively encourage the Shennü.

If the Shennü were to learn the truth in front of her, she would be at a disadvantage during subsequent negotiations.

Furthermore, the Shen Ze often leads to an overly subjective understanding of its own race, so Li Yang needs her teacher's help to find some objective information.

Si Kui understood Li Yang's meaning and had already issued an investigation order at the Star Nexus Pavilion. Detailed information would be sent over soon.

This was also one of the convenient ways for Si Kui to succeed as Twelve Marquises of the Star Nexus.

In the past, they would have had to ask Marquis of Wind Pavilion to investigate.

Marquis of Wind Pavilion would certainly do his best to handle it, but the problem was that Marquis of Wind Pavilion was also very busy.

If everything is piled on her shoulders, she will be overwhelmed.

It would take some time for news from the Huaxia Heavenly Palace to arrive, so Li Yang first listened to the Shen Ze's introduction of his race.

"I knew nothing about the Astral Realm until I turned 500 years old... and finally became able to produce Divine Blood. Only then did I realize... how vast the world is, and how we've remained confined to the Blood God Realm Domain..."

Shen Ze's words were rather disorganized, but Li Yang managed to glean some understanding of the Blood God Clan's situation from them.

The Blood God Clan has a very long lifespan. Don't be fooled by the fact that Shen Ze looks like a teenager; he is actually 500 years old.

They held very high positions; they were born with the rank of Sixth Grade.

This is not a suppression of Realm Domain boundaries, but rather a status inherent to the Blood God Clan, like the Lianxin and the Flower of Evil.

Even on the Astral Realm, this is quite remarkable.

Shen Ze didn't know what the Blood God Clan was like in the past because he was too young.

All he knew was that after his birth, the Blood God Clan was confined to a small Realm Domain.

Before he turned 300, Shen Ze lived a carefree life, doted on by his parents and sister, and with playmates he grew up with.

Their entire clan lived in this small Realm Domain, like a paradise on earth.

The Blood God Clan doesn't have much desire for cultivation; they prefer spending time with their families and indulging in strange and unusual hobbies.

However, when Shen Ze 300 years old, his sister was suddenly taken away.

Originally, the elder sister was supposed to succeed as the ruler of the Blood God Realm, but now the position has fallen to Shen Ze.

Shen Ze had no interest in becoming the realm lord, but he knew that his sister had sacrificed a lot to achieve it.

Why give up so easily?

Why did you leave so suddenly?

Shen Ze went to ask his parents, whose faces were filled with sorrow. They only whispered, "A Ze, this is your sister's choice."

"But..."

"She's not coming back. She'll have a better life. We..."

"How can there be a better life if the family isn't together?"

People always have to grow up, and after growing up...

"But other members of our tribe don't separate like we do!"

"I'm sorry, Mother is the Realm Lord, so we are destined to bear more burdens than other people of our race."

At that time, Shen Ze's age was equivalent to adolescence in the Huaxia.

He wouldn't listen to his parents and stubbornly insisted on finding his sister.

It was precisely because of this that he unexpectedly discovered that there was such a vast Astral Realm outside the Blood God Realm.

But no one from the Blood God Clan has ever wanted to step out of there.

Shen Ze didn't understand, so he returned to the Realm Domain and eagerly asked his parents.

His mother's reply was, "Yes, the Astral Realm is so vast, your sister is happier there than in the Blood God Realm."

Shen Ze as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water; his expression was blank, with a hint of disbelief. "But... but..."

"A Ze, you must work hard for the next 200 years and not let your sister down."

For the next 200 years, Shen Ze would occasionally leave the Blood God Realm Domain to search for news of his sister.

Until 28 years ago, he heard that there was a Shennü in Osmanthus City who oversaw everything.

"Sister! It must be sister!"

Shen Ze rushed to Osmanthus City and began the process of searching for his sister nearly 400 times, finding her, and then being forced to lose his memory.

At this point, Shen Ze's gaze visibly dimmed.

No matter how stubborn you are, after trying so many times, a deep sense of despair will rise in your heart.

My sister doesn't want to go home. Does she really not want them anymore?

As others have said, becoming a direct disciple of Divine Venerable is far more glorious than becoming the ruler of the Blood God Realm Domain.

The 500-year-old Shen Ze finally fully understood the predicament of the Blood God Clan.

It turns out that the Blood God Clan can nurture "Divine Blood" after the age of 500.

This is also the origin of their clan's name.

The powerful figures of the Upper Three Realms are eager to obtain Divine Blood, and they come to the Blood God Clan every so often to extract large amounts of Divine Blood.

Once their Divine Blood is extracted, the Blood God Clan will be weakened for a long time and can only recuperate.

At this point, Shen Ze shuddered and said, "I was subjected to this once. They would use a flexible tube several meters long to pierce into each of my fingers, and then the tube would come alive, swimming through my veins to extract the... Divine Blood contained in my blood."

Shen Ze spoke with a pale face, clearly remembering the incident vividly.

Si Kui frowned upon hearing this and said, "Are you just going to let them take whatever they want like this?"

The Shen Ze Rabbit's ears drooped, and it continued, "After they extract the Divine Blood, they will give us a large amount of rare and precious materials, which we desperately need..."

"And then what? After you've recovered your health using those rare and precious herbs, won't they come back to harvest the second wave of Divine Blood?!"

Shen Ze: "!"

Li Yang said softly, "This isn't an equal exchange; it's like we're keeping you captive."

Si Kui's face was filled with anger as she listened.

She received the message from the Star Nexus Pavilion, glanced at it briefly, and said to Li Yang, "This Divine Blood is indeed unique in the Astral Realm; it can actually... purify spiritual pollution."

Upon hearing this, Li Yang suddenly understood.

The higher the realm of the Star Wielders in the Upper Three Realms, the greater their trouble is the massive spiritual pollution left behind by the Dao of Devouring.

This makes it difficult for them to reach a higher level.

Especially when one reaches the Master Realm, it becomes virtually impossible to move an inch.

The reason why there are so many Master Realm, and even Ninth-Grade Supreme and Divine Venerable Realm in the Upper Three Realms today is probably due to the Divine Blood of the Blood God Clan.

"What exactly are the components of Divine Blood... and why can it purify mental pollution?" Li Yang murmured to himself.

She suddenly had a guess, and she turned to look at Shen Ze, saying, "Could you give me a small amount of Divine Blood? I..."

Shen Ze instantly became alert, his gaze towards Li Yang filled with wariness.

But he quickly remembered the promise he had made to Li Yang.

Trust her completely and follow her instructions.

He promised, so he has to keep his word.

Li Yang, of course, noticed Shen Ze's wariness. She carefully considered her words, wanting to explain things to him in detail, but to her surprise, Shen Ze had already agreed, "Okay."

Li Yang: "..."

Shen Ze whispered, "I trust you. I'll do whatever you ask."

He looked up at Li Yang, his ruby-like eyes trembling slightly. It was clear that he was very uneasy, yet he firmly kept his word.

Li Yang sighed softly and said, "I only need a very small portion for the experiment, just a very small amount."
