Realms In The Firmament

Bing Xin-Yue was quite a well informed person. She instantly understood Feng Zhi-Ling’s idea, like she could easily understand a song by hearing a few tones. She spoke with a pale face, “I… I don’t know. I could only feel…”

Her body lightly swayed again. Her entire body felt weak, and she couldn’t stop herself from falling down into Ye Xiao’s arms. Inside her eyes, there was a trace of fear.

She was just thinking about how horrible it would be if she was right.

“What did you feel exactly?” Ye Xiao held her body and hurriedly asked.

At the moment, Bing Xin-Yue leaned on Ye Xiao like she was almost paralytic. Ye Xiao held her tight. They were cuddling together. It was quite a suspensive scene.

They were both lost in their own thoughts, and none of them noticed what they were doing.

“That strange power came out of nowhere. The moment you activated it, I just felt like… Like…” The fear inside her eyes was increased, “I was like… I was reminded about something. Well… Like there is something added into my mind… It is difficult to explain what it is. I am not so sure. When you stopped, that immediately vanished…”

Ye Xiao was speechless. He looked at her and stayed silent for a while, before he spoke with a hoarse voice, “Then I am right… That is it…”

His voice contained a deep sense of fear and a little bit excitement.

It was like there was a huge miracle in front of him.

Bing Xin-Yue looked at him and said, “Is it real…”

“Yes.” Ye Xiao nodded affirmatively, “It is from your bloodline.”

He stopped and sighed, before he slowly spoke with a heavy tone, “This, is the bloodline inheritance.”

Bing Xin-Yue moaned and she nearly passed out. She said with sorrow, “Does it mean… That I… I am not a human?”

The superior cultivators who had bloodline inheritance were mostly the descendant of some saint mythical creatures or the most powerful spiritual animals. They were able to input the blood inheritance into their children to make sure their children would have a prosperous cultivation life.

When the bloodline inheritance wasn’t activated at birth, only when the owner faced a fatal danger would it automatically activate itself. It would boost the capability of the owner, so that the owner could escape from death for a single time.

In other words, it provided the owner a chance to survive some unexpected danger in the future.

The saint mythical creatures and those powerful spiritual animals were all infrequent. It was always hard for them to multiply. Some of them had to live alone for thousands of years.

Only the bloodline inheritance could keep them from dying out.

Ye Xiao frowned and thought for a while. He said, “Nothing is absolute. It may not be exactly like you imagine… In fact, human can do bloodline inheritance too. It is just… whoever is able to do bloodline inheritance, he or she must be a figure that could shock the entire universe…”

He spoke with a deep voice, “Inputting the cultivation capability and experience into their children’s blood as inheritance… That is something only those most powerful men are capable of.”

He smiled bitterly, “The ‘most powerful’ I said, doesn’t mean those in the Qing-Yun Realm though. It must be in some higher realms.”

Bing Xin-Yue’s face was pale. She said quiveringly, “If that person is truly that powerful and cares so much for his child, how would he abandon his child?”

Ye Xiao sighed and shook his head, “There are all kinds of issues in the world, and nobody knows everything. The world is full of strange things, and there always a reason… The truth… We just can’t have a certain conjecture…”

Bing Xin-Yue stared blank for a while as tears dropped down from her eyes. She was suddenly filled with sorrow.

Ye Xiao sighed and asked, “Do you have parents?”

Bing Xin-Yue nodded and more tears were out.

Ye Xiao was speechless. He felt a bit sad too. He understood the feeling.

If she truly had a bloodline inheritance, then it meant that her parents were not her real parents. Then who was she?

Where did she come from?

What was she?

What should she do in the future?

“Are they alive?” Ye Xiao kept on asking.

If they were alive, he could find some clues about the truth…

“They passed away long ago…” Bing Xin-Yue was weeping.

Ye Xiao sighed and said, “Then we have to find out the truth ourselves. It is better to be positive than negative.”

Bing Xin-Yue said weakly, “But… I am… I am so scared.”

To completely find out the truth, she had to fully activate her bloodline inheritance. After that, she would need to formally accept the inheritance. And that would lead her to everything behind her bloodline. However… she didn’t dare to.

She didn’t dare to face it. She was terrified. She didn’t want to face it.

Once she inherited it, she had to accept the existence of a brand new Bing Xin-Yue. She would have to bear the new and unfamiliar identity of herself.

Everything that she had been through would become like a dream.

That was something she wasn’t prepared to reach yet.

Ye Xiao asked, “What exactly we should do is up to you. I will keep the secret.”

Bing Xin-Yue spoke in a low voice, “I cannot make the decision yet. I want to… wait.” She took in a deep breath and said, “It happened so fast, but I had my sensations. I can suppress the inheritance temporarily… You can go on absorbing the energy from my illness. You won’t get a reverse impact from my inheritance… However, I can only suppress it for about three hundred rounds. So… After the three hundred rounds, you have to let me rest and recover myself. If we forcibly continue, we will be at the risk of getting hurt by the inheritance.”

Ye Xiao said solemnly, “What you are suggesting is practical, but I think you should give it a second thought. I did feel the power of your bloodline inheritance too. It is unbelievably powerful and pure. I think it must have come from some extremely powerful people… Once the bloodline inheritance is activated, you can become one of the most powerful figures in the Qing-Yun Realm. Well, that is as long as you take good control of such inheritance power. You can even be invincible in the Qing-Yun Realm. It is something people can die for, but they just don’t have the chance to even dream about it.”

Bing Xin-Yue smiled bitterly, “I know. However, when I think about fully taking in the inheritance, it feels like betraying my parents in this life… They have lived a tough life just to raise me up, yet it turns out that I am not their real child… Once I accept it, it means I have chosen to return to my real bloodline… It is such a cruel thing to my parents…”
