85: The Chu family has been seeking for thousands of years, that person who has no pure blood among the millions
Chu Yongyuan returned to the Chu Family with the fragments of the Blood Lamp, as if he had lost his voice. At this time, the Chu Family stronghold was already filled with important figures from the Middle Thousand World and the Upper Thousand Realms.
Seeing Chu Yongyuan return with a pile of fragments, many people stood up in surprise, completely disbelieving.
“The Intermediate Blood Lamp is one thing, but the Advanced Blood Lamp also exploded?”
“How is this possible??”
“That’s right, this Advanced Blood Lamp was brought by me from the Upper Thousand Realms. Logically speaking, even if someone from the main Family came, it shouldn’t explode, right?”
“Who exactly is it?! It’s time to say something, isn’t it? Could it be an orphan of my Chu Family left outside?”
The many important figures, whom Chu Yongyuan rarely saw, spoke one after another, all expressing their doubts.
Initially, he thought it was just a coincidence and considered applying for an Intermediate Blood Lamp to test it.
But since it was an application, a reason was definitely needed. Jun Lingxiao hadn’t spoken, so Chu Yongyuan didn’t dare to use his name. Therefore, he reported to the higher-ups that there was a person whose Bloodline purity was so high that it caused the Blood Lamp to explode.
However, the identity of this person was not mentioned.
An Intermediate Blood Lamp, used in the Middle Thousand World, could be applied for with any random reason.
But this one incident quickly spiraled out of control. The Intermediate Blood Lamp was registered in the Family, so when the Blood Lamp here went out, the Chu Family in the Middle Thousand World would immediately know.
So, the higher-ups descended to the Lower Realm with a formidable Aura. After hearing the news, they exclaimed that it was impossible, and then applied for an Advanced Blood Lamp from even higher up.
As a result, the Advanced Blood Lamp also exploded?
“Who exactly is it?? Could it be one of the Four Heavens of the main Family in the Ten Directions Immortal Court who descended to the Lower Realm?”
“It’s probably them. If not the Four Heavens, then one of the Nine Manifestations. Otherwise, no one else could possibly achieve such Bloodline purity.”
“In that case, aren’t we making a trip for nothing? It turns out it was just a prank by an Upper Realm adult.”
“That’s not right, among the Four Heavens of the main Family, it seems there’s no record of anyone causing a Blood Lamp to explode, is there? Or was it deliberately hidden, and we simply don’t know?”
Everyone was still discussing animatedly.
The internal structure of the Chu Family was much more complex compared to the Jun Family.
In the Jun Family, the strong reign supreme: a Divine Son, the Ten Paths, and then all Disciple of the main Family, branch Disciple, and affiliated Family Disciple, in descending order.
However, after Jun Lingxiao’s intervention, this generation generally doesn’t distinguish between branch, affiliated, or main Family; strength is all that matters.
Therefore, there are only three Ranks for Jun Family Disciple: Divine Son, Ten Paths, and ordinary Disciple.
The Chu Family, however, is different.
The Chu Family has One God, below whom are the Four Heavens, then the Nine Manifestations. All Disciple after that are categorized by Bloodline purity:
Bloodline below 30 is considered mixed blood, and the Blood Lamp shows no reaction; between 30-50, the Blood Lamp displays white, indicating White Blood; between 50-70, the Blood Lamp is cyan, indicating Cyan Blood; between 70-80, the Blood Lamp is yellow, indicating Yellow Blood; between 80-85, the Four Heavens and Nine Manifestations are chosen from this range.
The higher one goes, the rarer it becomes; even a small difference represents a chasm.
Above 85, no one has appeared again; even higher, it refers to the legendary pure blood individuals.
In other words, the Chu Family, from highest to lowest, has eight Ranks: pure blood, One God, Four Heavens, Nine Manifestations, Yellow Blood, Cyan Blood, White Blood, and mixed blood.
The Chu Family firmly believes that Bloodline is what allows a Family to go further, so Bloodline is prioritized over strength.
And strictly speaking, in ancient times, the Chu Family only distinguished between pure blood and mixed blood, after all, all below pure blood were considered mixed blood.
However, today, the Chu Family has not produced a single pure blood individual for nearly a hundred thousand years.
That’s why they were so eager.
Listening to the discussions of the various important figures, Chu Yongyuan reluctantly stepped forward and directly stated:
“Actually, although this person indeed comes from the Ten Directions Immortal Court, strictly speaking, he is not a person of my Chu Family.”
As soon as these words were uttered, they immediately drew criticism from several people.
“Someone not from my Chu Family has such high Bloodline purity? Are you trying to say the Blood Lamp is broken?”
“The Blood Lamp never makes mistakes. You are merely a Cyan Blood, a branch Family Head of the Lower Realm. Watch your words!”
“Sirs, this person is none other than the Divine Son of the Jun Family, His Highness Jun Lingxiao.”
Seeing that the few people were about to speak again, Chu Yongyuan hastily revealed Jun Lingxiao’s identity.
At this, all the important figures fell silent. Those from the Middle Thousand World didn’t know who Jun Lingxiao was, while those from the Upper Thousand Realms grew quiet upon hearing the name.
“Jun Family’s Jun Lingxiao?”
“That Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo?”
“Hiss… that would be…”
Instantly, everyone stopped talking.
On one hand, it was because Jun Lingxiao’s identity was not easy to discuss. On the other hand, they were somewhat disbelieving in their hearts.
There were many instances of intermarriage between the Jun Family and the Chu Family, and Jun Lingxiao was one of them. His name as Divine Son had long spread throughout the Upper Thousand Realms, as the Jun Family’s act of directly annihilating the Wu Family had spread far and wide.
However, in such cases of intermarriage with external clans, logically speaking, the Bloodline purity, being mixed with another Family’s Bloodline, would not be very high at all.
It wasn’t that they hadn’t tried; having a Cyan Blood was already the absolute peak. This was the conclusion the Chu Family People had reached after numerous experiences with intermarriage.
This was also why their Chu Family hadn’t paid much attention to Jun Lingxiao.
But how could a mere Cyan Blood possibly cause the Blood Lamp to explode?
“Hiss, this matter is probably beyond our discussion… Is it really the Jun Family’s Divine Son, Jun Lingxiao?”
This person held the highest status among those present; he was a Yellow Blood.
He still desperately wanted to see a look of denial on Chu Yongyuan’s face.
After all, if it were other matters, they could intervene, but if it involved the Jun Family, it was not something they could dictate or discuss.
But unfortunately, Chu Yongyuan nodded faintly. He would certainly not joke about this matter.
Now, even this person fell silent.
After a moment, he sighed.
“This matter involves many complexities. I will report it to the main Family before making further plans.”
“Everyone, please return. What comes next is no longer something you can interfere with.”

And at the same time, the news had already reached the Ten Directions Immortal Court.
“The Blood Lamp exploded?”
A Chu Family Elder in charge of external affairs first froze upon hearing the report from his subordinate Disciple, then shook his head helplessly.
