Chapter 173: A Problem with Bloodline Awakening
It was night.
At a spacious courtyard, a few orange trees swayed gently in front of the gate, which was half-closed. A white-haired figure leaned against the gate, holding a mobile phone horizontally. The phone emitted a faint light, and she occasionally muttered the Three Character Classic of Dragon Country.
“This is the third mid-grade Awakening Stone, why hasn’t it succeeded yet?”
Inside the courtyard, Mr. Tam and several people in brocade robes looked at Su Jiu’s hand with strange expressions as another Awakening Stone dimmed. Su Jiu, however, did not look like she was about to awaken.
“How could this happen? This is enough to awaken several people.”
Su Jiu raised her hand and looked at it, her eyes filled with doubt about life. She sensed the energy of the Awakening Stone and realized that she had probably used low-grade Awakening Stones before, which was why she had used so many.
After secretly rejoicing about getting the Vice President’s 300,000 awakening fee for free, she was filled with deep self-doubt. Now, it was even more frustrating. Even knowing she was using mid-grade Awakening Stones, the situation was the same, or even worse…
She couldn’t sense any response from her bloodlines. The special energy from the Awakening Stones poured into her body like stones sinking into the sea. The script was the same for the previous few times.
First time:
Special energy: “I’m here, little bro.”
Body: “……”
Second time:
Special energy: “Little bro, give me some face.”
Body: “……”
Third time:
Su Jiu: (ᗜ ˰ ᗜ)
Hook-nose Mr. Tam crossed his arms, his white eyebrows raised slightly, muttering to himself in confusion, “How can this be?”
He then stepped forward, picked up an energy stone, and asked Su Jiu seriously, “When you used it, did you feel any response from deep within your bloodline?”
Hearing this, Su Jiu shook her head and said, “No, let alone a response, I haven’t even seen a shadow. That energy seems to have directly merged into my body and turned into food-like energy.”
“This is indeed strange. By rights, even if your bloodline is very advanced, there should be a reaction.” Mr. Tam looked at the completely dimmed Awakening Stone, paused, and then asked, “…But your ice-element bloodline attribute is an Extraordinary Attribute. Is it possible that you have already awakened, but you just don’t know it?”
Su Jiu’s performance was too strong, and she had been failing to awaken all along. This speculation was reasonable.
Lu Bacu Wu Ba Ling SI Ling Wu “Indeed, what Mr. Tam said makes some sense. How about Miss Su Jiu changing her request?”
At this moment, the brocade-robed man beside him suddenly spoke. As the family head, he felt heartache seeing these Awakening Stones being wasted. One doesn’t know the value of firewood and rice until they manage a household.
“It’s not because of that. I am a Twin Bloodline. My other bloodline has always been in its first awakening state. I am very clear about this.”
However, Su Jiu quickly shook her head, denying Mr. Tam’s statement, and said something that made everyone unable to understand.
Mr. Tam could understand Twin Bloodlines, which usually appeared with a very strong bloodline and an exceptionally weak bloodline coexisting. But Su Jiu’s situation clearly did not meet the requirements: “Twin Bloodline? But by rights, shouldn’t your second bloodline awaken more easily? If your ice-element bloodline has awakened, then less energy should be consumed by the other bloodline.”
“No, the other bloodline is more difficult to awaken. That bloodline is the Main Bloodline, and the Ice Chih Bloodline is just a Secondary Bloodline.”
Su Jiu shook her head, her expression serious, and said something that made Mr. Tam and the others even more confused. He began to ponder, and after a moment, he opened his mouth in shock, “You mean… this avatar, which is so strong and even has Extraordinary Attributes, is just your Secondary Bloodline??”
The others were startled by Mr. Tam’s voice, but after they reacted, they all looked over with curious expressions.
Being looked at like a rare animal, Su Jiu felt a bit embarrassed. However, she didn’t want to miss this chance to get something for free, so she quickly picked up the fourth one to try.
“Don’t bother, it’s useless… Your bloodline should be similar to mine. It requires some powerful items to force the awakening.”
At this moment, a soft yet slightly irritable voice sounded from outside the door, and the faint sound of “Defeated” could be heard.
Hearing the jester Yun Xi’s words, Su Jiu was startled. She thought of the male protagonist Bai Ming’s actions in the novel. It seemed that the other party was different from her; he had a pendant… It seemed that when he awakened, that black pendant constantly provided him with some sacred elements.
However, what shocked Su Jiu the most was Yun Xi’s sentence, “Your bloodline should be similar to yours.” Could the other party also awaken their bloodline?
What did she awaken? Was it the bloodline of the true Sword God family?
The door creaked open as Yun Xi pushed it open. She held her phone with displeasure and walked up to Su Jiu. Without a word, she placed a small hand on Su Jiu’s chest, seemingly intentionally touching the slightly protruding part.
In the next moment, a deep blue light emerged from her hand, and then the light slowly flowed to her fingertips.
The displeasure on Yun Xi’s face turned into a slight frown, and she said softly, “Don’t move around… I’ll check your Main Bloodline. I’ll introduce Human bloodline into it and see its reaction. This will also verify my conjecture.”
Su Jiu was stunned by this action. Her pale cheeks gradually turned red, and before she could speak, a snowflake bloomed on her chest, and then a feather fell onto Su Jiu’s face.
Yun Xi in front of Su Jiu transformed. Her pale blue hair became fair and healthy, and her eyes were like eagle eyes, but they gave a sense of holiness.
This cold and noble demeanor was like a saintess from a certain holy religion.
If one were to say she was a Vampire Duke, no one would truly believe it. There was not a trace of evil in her.
“Your bloodline world is very strange…”
Yun Xi closed her eyes tightly, and frost kept emanating from her hands. In Su Jiu’s inner world, she saw a flying fish. As she got closer, the fish gave her a sinister smile and transformed into a Roc, flying away.
In this spiritual world, Yun Xi transformed into an Ice Phoenix. Although the Roc was very fast, she could still catch up – after all, her strength was much stronger than Su Jiu’s, and her bloodline had evolved countless times.
As the Roc fled, it let out strange cries: “Big brother, there’s a new person!!”
Looking around, Yun Xi secretly thought, “Something’s wrong. My smelly servant’s bloodline should have another fire-element bird, not this thing.”
After chasing for a while in the sky above the green ocean, Yun Xi suddenly found that the sky darkened, a suppressive aura emerged, and hot energy began to seep out from the surroundings.
“Phoenix!” Accompanied by an angry bird cry, Yun Xi was forcibly expelled from the spiritual world. The next moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
This level of strength was too terrifying!
She looked at the dazed Su Jiu and asked seriously, “Did someone of great status appear in your ancestors?”
