"How long are you going to hide the Evil Bloodline?"
In the dark space, the old face that seemed to emerge from the darkness stared furiously at the figure in the white dress. His angry voice reverberated and shook the space.
The woman in the white dress was naturally Mu Chen's mother. At this moment, she glanced coldly at the old face and said indifferently, "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Qing Yanjing, are you still going to be so stubborn?
Do you think that you can deceive us by bringing back a little girl who is not related to you and giving her the Yin Scroll of the Buddha Divine Art? "the old face said sternly.
A faint chill appeared in Aunt Jing's beautiful eyes as she stared at the elderly face and said, "I'm not trying to use Ling Xi to deceive anyone, nor have I ever said that Ling Xi is related to me by blood. It's just that you bunch of stubborn old fogeys are too stupid to actually have such doubts."
"Didn't you give her the Yin Scroll of the Buddha Divine Art to confuse us?
You just want to cover for the real Evil Bloodline! "the old face continued to shout furiously.
"The Pagoda Divine Art's Yin Scroll is Lingxi's own choice, and I didn't interfere in it at all. Indeed, I didn't have much thoughts when I brought her back. I only felt pity for her, and felt some compassion for her. However, who would have thought that you bunch of old fellows would be so paranoid, to the point that you wouldn't even let off an innocent little girl!" said Aunt Jing with a sneer.
"The Divine Bloodline in your body has obviously been separated, and it must have been obtained by the Evil Bloodline!
You must have put a seal on his body, right?
That's why we haven't been able to detect it all these years! "
"Qing Yanjing, you are the Goddess of our clan, and you have an extraordinary status and amazing talent. In the Great Thousand World, only Maha Tian from the Maha Celestial Clan, which is also one of the Primordial God Clans, is compatible with you. If the two of you get together, not only will it bring great benefits to both our clans, but you and Maha Tian might also be able to break through the rules and become the ruler. When that time comes, you will be the king of our clan!"
The old face was incomparably furious and was almost roaring, "But this time, you went out to train and fell in love with an ant from who knows where. You even damaged your own Divine Vein and gave birth to the Sadistic Vein. Where did you place the ancient inheritance of our clan?!"
"What's there to like about that kind of ant?
Could it be comparable to Maha Tian?
He is the true king, and the Maha Divine Race will once again bloom in his hands. You could have done the same, but you did such a thing!
Are you worthy of our clan's nurturing? "
A slight frown appeared on Aunt Jing's face as she replied, "Do I have to like Maha Tian just because he's formidable?
Great Elder, it seems that you have been pedantic for too long. In your eyes, everything is just a weight to increase the strength of our clan. Therefore, you don't understand what love is. "
"Qing Yanjing!
Do you know the meaning of our race's existence?
Do you know what our race means to the Great Thousand World?
How can such a selfish thing like love appear in our race?! "the old face roared.
"First Elder, our tribe's past is indeed our pride. However, all of you are too immersed in this pride. This will only cause you to be stuck in your own ways. Let me ask you, before our tribe possessed this pride, were we like this?
Were we like the rules of speech that you've mentioned before? "Aunt Jing replied in an indifferent tone.
Within the gloomy space, the old face seemed to turn silent for a moment, before replying in a deep voice, "Looks like you've really been blinded by that so-called love. You actually dare to question the pride of our clan."
Aunt Jing shook her head slightly. Indeed, it was a waste of effort to persuade such a stubborn old man with emotions.
"Although you're constantly protecting that Evil Vein, I don't believe that you can protect him from being discovered by us for the rest of his life. As long as we discover him, we'll definitely capture him and extract the Divine Vein in his body. Although the bloodline of our clan can be considered to be flowing in his body, due to his father being too lowly, causing it to be impure. Therefore, our clan will not acknowledge him. Towards such existences, we will only eliminate them!" the Great Elder said slowly.
Bang!
Just as he finished speaking, the face of Aunt Jing, who was sitting cross-legged within the gloomy space, suddenly turned ice-cold, while a torrential aura enveloped the area. At this moment, the gloomy space started to violently shake, as though it was showing signs of shattering.
"Qing Yanjing, are you trying to violate the clan's rules?!" The Great Elder immediately roared furiously when he sensed this change.
Aunt Jing took a deep breath and suppressed her torrential aura. Her ice-cold eyes stared at the old face as she said, word by word, "Great Elder, although I've willingly accepted my punishment all these years, I hope that you can understand why I'm doing this. It's not that I'm afraid of you, but that I don't want any losses to happen to our clan because of me. However, if you really dare to harm my child's life, then don't blame me for not giving you any face. At that time, even if you can kill me, I won't let you have it easy. At the very least, Great Elder, I'm sure that you'll definitely die with me when that time comes!"
"Qing Yanjing, you're too bold!"
The Great Elder roared furiously, while green veins seemed to throb on his old face. At the same time, a terrifying aura swept out, causing the gloomy space to tremble crazily.
However, Aunt Jing was not afraid at all, as she continued to stare coldly at the Great Elder.
Humm.
As the Great Elder roared furiously, ripples started to appear in the gloomy space once again, as several similarly aged and gigantic faces appeared from the gloomy space, with different expressions on their faces.
"Great Elder, you should calm down as well."
"Little Jing, you too. Why do you have to provoke the Great Elder like this?"
As those gigantic faces appeared, they spoke out to appease both parties.
"Elders, I have no intention of offending you. However, there are some pedantic rules that need to be changed. Could it be that our clan's bloodline is as noble as you think it is?
Didn't our ancestors stand out from ordinary people, and only after going through hardships did they reach the peak of the world? "
Aunt Jing said indifferently, "Then, why do we have to look down on them?
Who can be sure that my child won't be more outstanding than me? "
"Hmph! Do you think that our clan hasn't nurtured you enough for you to have your current achievements?
Without your help, and without any background, what kind of achievements could that Evil Bloodline have?
It's simply a waste for the Divine Bloodline to be in his body! "The Great Elder gave a cold snort.
"In the Great Thousand World, there are innumerable top-notch experts. Among them, there are some well-known people who have humble origins, with some even coming from the Lower Planes. How could they have any background?
However, in the end, aren't they still famous in the Great Thousand World?
Even the extremely stunning Maha Tian that you speak of was forced to retreat by Yan Emperor in the end when he tried to invade the Endless Fire Territory.
In the Great Thousand World, other than Yan Emperor, there's still that Martial Border's Wu Zu, the Sword Domain's Green Robed Sword Saint, and the Undying Lands' Tomb Keeper. "With a calm expression on her face, each and every one of them were famous in the Great Thousand World, with their illustrious names resounding out from her mouth, reverberating within the gloomy space.
"At the very beginning, when did those peak level experts have any powerful backgrounds? They only have the hearts of true experts. That's the reason why they're able to have such illustrious reputations in the Great Thousand World. Therefore, Great Elder, if you think that in order to become a true expert, one would completely need to rely on nurturing and resources, then you might be gravely mistaken," said Aunt Jing in an indifferent tone.
The aged face of the Great Elder that had appeared within the gloomy space faintly contorted, appearing slightly angered. Although he wanted to refute, he was momentarily speechless. In the end, he could only give a cold snort and say, "Regardless of how you quibble, you're unable to change the decision of the Elder Council."
Slightly lowering her eyes, Aunt Jing replied, "How you choose is your matter. Similarly, how I choose is also my matter. I have extremely deep feelings for my clan. However, if it really comes to that …"
She did not say anything else as she slowly closed her eyes, no longer speaking. Clearly, she did not plan to continue talking with those pedantic old monsters.
Seeing that, the Great Elder could only give an annoyed snort. As ripples undulated out, those gigantic and aged faces disappeared from the gloomy space one after another.
Only after those gigantic faces disappeared did Aunt Jing open her eyes. Clenching her hands tightly, she gave a soft sigh. She knew that it was absolutely impossible for those pedantic old fellows to sway them with just her words alone. They would definitely continue to search for Mu Chen's whereabouts. However, thinking about it, her previous words would still have some effect on those old fellows. After all, she wasn't a person without the strength to even truss up a chicken. With her strength, she could be considered to be one of the top few within her clan. If anything were to happen to her, it would be a massive loss to her clan.
An expert of such a level was not something that could be nurtured by just relying on the so-called resources.
Therefore, they would not dare to force her too much, which would also give Mu Chen quite a bit of time. Furthermore, she believed in her child. If Mu Chen were to quietly stay within the Northern Spiritual Realm and be an ordinary person for the rest of his life, she would feel gratified. After all, as a mother, she only needed Mu Chen to be safe.
However, the current Mu Chen had clearly walked on a different path. The youth was already tall and straight, and was no longer the crying infant in his swaddling clothes. He had walked out of the small Northern Spiritual Realm and entered the Hokuang Reiwon, one of the five Great Academies. Furthermore, she could see that Mu Chen was extremely outstanding, and was rapidly unleashing his potential. That child's future path might be even more outstanding than her, his mother. Although those Elders did not believe in this, she firmly believed in it without a single doubt.
As for Mu Chen, who had walked on such a path, although she felt some regret and heartache, she still felt a sliver of pride. Her child was not an ordinary person. There would definitely be a day when those doubtful gazes would be shocked by him.
However, that required time.
A true expert would need time to sharpen himself. When he had completely shed all of his previous splendor, it would be the moment when he would shine brightly within the Great Thousand World, where heroes had gathered.
Clenching her hands tightly, the expression in Aunt Jing's eyes gradually turned gentle. Soft murmurs slowly rang out within the gloomy space.
"Mu Chen, since you've chosen this path, mother will support you without any reservations. Mother will be here, waiting for the moment when your name shakes the Great Thousand World!"
