109: Chapter 109 A Powerful Gift: Ancient Emperor's Blood!

Chu Wanqing felt a sting in her nose.

These words were incredibly powerful.

Some people comfort you by just saying it's fine.

But some people stand up and domineeringly tell everyone.

"Touch my people, and there's going to be a problem!"

"Whoever says it's fine, I'll deal with them first!"

Lin Yi took two steps forward and stood before the xuantian mirror.

On this ancient blue-black stone, the layer of murky darkness from before had not yet completely dissipated.

From a distance, it looked like it was covered in soot, convincingly dirty.

Lin Yi glanced at it and suddenly smiled.

"Using this thing as ironclad evidence."

"This generation of your Chu Family is a bit too abstract!"

Chu Wanjun's face darkened.

"Lin Yi! You!"

"The Imperial Clan cannot be insulted!"

Lin Yi ignored him, simply raising his hand and flipping his palm.

A small bottle made entirely of cold jade appeared in his palm.

The jade bottle wasn't large.

It was smaller than a palm.

But the moment it appeared, the air in the Ancestral Hall suddenly became heavy.

It wasn't an illusion.

It really had become heavy.

The knees of several Disciples with weaker cultivation buckled, and they nearly knelt on the spot.

Even the imperial phoenix inscriptions on the dome of the Ancestral Hall began to cry out.

Chu Chengdao's gaze narrowed.

Chu Wanjun abruptly stood up from his seat.

Meanwhile, Chu Ningshuang's heart skipped a beat.

She suddenly had an extremely bad premonition.

Lin Yi gripped the bottle's mouth with two fingers and slowly pulled it open.

Pop!

With a crisp sound, the jade bottle opened.

In the next instant.

A vast imperial might, nearly suffocating, surged through the entire Ancestral Hall.

Golden light burst out from the jade bottle.

It wasn't ordinary spiritual light.

It was the purest Imperial Dao Origin.

A drop of golden blood suspended in mid-air; its glow wasn't blinding, yet it made everyone instinctively want to bow their heads.

It was too ancient.

And too domineering.

Around the blood, Great Dao runes faintly drifted up and down.

Every single line carried an aura capable of suppressing mountains and rivers.

Chu Wanjun lost his voice.

"great emperors essence blood!"

His voice nearly cracked from that shout.

The Ancestral Hall instantly erupted into a commotion.

"What?! Is it really great emperors essence blood?"

"Am I seeing this right?"

"That aura... even my Bloodline is trembling!"

"Crazy, he can actually produce something like this?"

"Wait, what is he doing with this thing? Who is it for?"

Just as the last sentence fell.

Everyone realized.

Lin Yi hadn't come to the Chu Family to reason with them.

He had come with a purpose.

Chu Ningshuang's face turned completely pale.

She knew better than anyone else what this drop of blood signified.

Back then, Wang Teng had nearly lost his life trying to obtain the Ancient Desolate Emperor's essence blood.

And yet now.

Lin Yi just casually pulled it out.

And by the looks of it.

It wasn't even for his own use.

Chu Ningshuang's lips couldn't stop trembling.

"Impossible..."

"This is impossible..."

Lin Yi finally glanced at her.

"Can you say anything else? You're so anxious you've started repeating yourself."

Chu Ningshuang nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

She was about to say something.

But Lin Yi had already turned around.

He handed the jade bottle to Chu Wanqing, his tone very calm.

"Take it."

Chu Wanqing was stunned.

"For... for me?"

Lin Yi nodded.

"Otherwise?"

"I didn't come all this way just to broaden their horizons."

"Though it seems I've managed to do that as well."

Someone in the Ancestral Hall's mouth twitched.

Good heavens.

This guy really doesn't treat others as outsiders, slapping them in the face directly.

Chu Wanqing looked at the great emperors essence blood, somewhat afraid to reach out.

It wasn't that she didn't want it.

It was just too precious.

So precious it made her scalp tingle.

Seeing her not taking it, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow.

"What?"

"Being polite with me now?"

Chu Wanqing's voice trembled.

"But this is great emperors essence blood..."

Lin Yi was very casual.

"I know."

"That's why I'm giving it to you."

"Other things might not be enough to slap these people's faces, but this definitely is."

Su Yuxi stood nearby, her lips curling slightly as she listened.

This youth's way of speaking was as blunt as ever.

But it was truly effective.

Shen Qingyue looked at the drop of great emperors essence blood, her eyes moving slightly.

She knew that Lin Yi never fought a battle he wasn't prepared for.

Since he had brought this out, it proved that he already had this situation under control.

Chu Chengdao's breathing grew a bit heavy.

He stared at the drop of blood, his eyes full of shock.

That Lin Yi could produce great emperors essence blood was shocking enough.

What was even more shocking was that after taking it out, he didn't even hesitate before handing it directly to Chu Wanqing.

This wasn't just helping.

This was openly taking a side.

It was also openly telling the entire Chu Family.

Chu Wanqing is under his protection!

Anyone who touches her again should weigh the consequences.

The greed in Chu Wanjun's eyes was impossible to suppress.

That was great emperors essence blood.

If he could obtain even a shred of its Origin, even a Quasi-Emperor like him would have a chance to take another step forward.

But no matter how greedy he was, he didn't dare to snatch it.

Snatching Lin Yi's things.

That was basically the same as digging one's own grave in front of the immortal burial coffin.

Chu Ningshuang finally snapped.

"No!"

Her voice was sharp and somewhat ear-piercing.

"This is my Chu Family's assembly! Not a place for you, Lin Yi, to give gifts!"

"Chu Wanqing's Bloodline is abnormal. Who knows if you're trying to use external force to forcibly cover up the truth?"

Lin Yi glanced at her.

"Oh, you understand again."

"Then why don't you teach This Holy Son what the truth is?"

Chu Ningshuang was choked up, her face turning blue.

She wanted to continue speaking.

But Chu Chengdao had already given her a cold look.

"Enough."

This voice was colder than any time before.

Chu Ningshuang's heart trembled.

She knew.

The Family Head had already begun to suspect her.

But she couldn't back down now.

If she backed down, it would all be over.

Chu Wanjun also said in a deep voice:

"Saint Lin, even with great emperors essence blood, it doesn't prove that Chu Wanqing's previous Bloodline phenomenon was fake."

"At most, it only proves you want to help her recover."

"This is still not evidence."

This old geezer was still being stubborn.

Lin Yi heard this and smiled.

"Heh! It seems you bunch of local dogs are dead set on evidence today."

"Fine."

"Then This Holy Son will let you see enough with your own eyes, so you can die with a clear understanding!"

He raised his hand and gently pushed the jade bottle forward.

The golden emperor's blood hovered in front of Chu Wanqing.

"Refine it."

"Don't be afraid, nothing will go wrong."

Chu Wanqing looked at Lin Yi.

Those eyes that had just cried were watery, yet they shone incredibly bright.

She hesitated for only a breath before nodding.

"Okay."

Nothing else was said.

She took the jade bottle, her fingertips burning.

That was the temperature of the imperial might.

And also a certain inexplicable sense of security.

She sat down cross-legged right in front of everyone.

The world-suppressing imperial zither automatically hovered behind her, letting out a low hum.

Inside and outside the Ancestral Hall, all eyes were on her.

Lin Yi stood to the side, like a wall that no one could climb over.

Chu Ningshuang's breathing was rapid, her back drenched in cold sweat.

She stared intently at Chu Wanqing, with only one thought in her mind.

I can't let her succeed.

Absolutely not!

But under Lin Yi's watchful eyes, she didn't even have the courage to move a finger.

Chu Wanqing took a deep breath.

She tilted her head back.

And swallowed that drop of great emperors essence blood directly.

In the next instant.

Boom!

A blinding golden light suddenly exploded from within her body.

The entire Ancestral Hall was instantly submerged in gold.

Chu Wanqing's long hair fluttered without wind, her skirt flapped loudly, and the spiritual power around her surged.

After that drop of great emperors essence blood entered her body, there was no rejection at all.

Instead, it was like a key.

Directly opening the door in the deepest part of her body.

Golden imperial might surged through her Meridians.

The Imperial Phoenix Bloodline instantly boiled.

Then.

A sudden change occurred.

A wisp of black Qi, hidden to the extreme, was forcibly expelled from the depths of her heart meridians.
