The entire martial arts arena was silent. A gentle breeze blew past, bringing forth the black robe of Azure Sun who was standing in the middle of the arena.
"Cough cough, can we announce the results now?" Beitang Haifan lightly coughed as he asked.
"Beitang Hai Fan is victorious in this dragon battle!" After a moment of silence, she finally announced, seemingly unwilling to accept it.
At the same time as Nan Rongyan's announcement, the people of the Beitang Clan cheered. In contrast, the entire Nan Rong family was quiet. Under Nan Rongyan's instructions, a few Nan Rong disciples went up on stage and lifted up the fainted Nan Rong Junlong.
"Old man Jie, I didn't think that you, Crown Prince Beitang, would actually become a Black Tortoise." "They really did hide themselves deep enough." As he listened to these words, he felt a strong sense of jealousy. There was even a hint of worry on his face, but his expression was very flat.
Laughing loudly, that Beitang Clan elder was overjoyed at this moment. "I only just found out that Your Highness has already attained the Black Tortoise True Body. Haha."
"If that's the case, then let's end the competition before noon." With a cold snort, his expression kept changing. With a wave of his sleeve, he took the lead to fly out of the arena. The South Rong disciples also carried the injured and unconscious Nan Rong out of the martial arena with hatred in their eyes.
"I never thought that Brother Hai Fan's Black Tortoise true body would be so tyrannical." had actually summoned the Divine Beast Black Tortoise against the enemy. " Qingyang could not help but laugh as he looked at the Beitang disciples, who were happily surrounding Beitang Haifan.
"That's not the Divine Beast Black Tortoise." Glancing at the refined and elegant Beitang Haifan standing in the arena, Lu Xianhan indifferently replied, "Let's go."
With that, he ignored Dongfang Ming and Qingyang's puzzled expressions, turned around, and left the martial arts arena.
"What happened to Miss Lu?" Was her performance today very abnormal? " Qingyang looked at Dongfang Ming and asked with a puzzled expression.
He shrugged and replied, "How would I know? Let's go, Brother Qingyang."
Qingyang nodded. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he happened to meet Beitang Haifan's gaze of goodwill. He lightly nodded his head and smiled. Then, Qingyang and Dongfang Ming squeezed through the crowd and walked out.
"Miss Lu, you seem to have something on your mind today?" As the three of them sat in the carriage, the atmosphere became as awkward as it was the first time.
"Hmm? "It's nothing. I just remembered some old friends." Lu Xianhan gave a casual reply, then fell silent.
"Perhaps, Miss Lu has a secret of her own that is rarely known." Qingyang nodded as he thought in his heart. He didn't continue pursuing the matter any further. After all, this was someone else's private matter.
Without a word, the three of them returned to the Dongfang Residence. As Qingyang had expected, Lu Xianhan told her he was not feeling well and went straight back to his room, closing the door behind him.
"If you're curious, you can ask Senior Sister Lu." Dongfang Ming looked at Qingyang with a faint smile, and he suddenly said this.
He was stunned, but Qingyang was also hesitating whether he should go and ask. After all, Lu Xianhan's concern for him had always been sincere.
Qingyang also spent the afternoon training. After dinner, he decided to take a look at Lu Xianhan's room after thinking for a while.
"Dong Dong"
"Who?" A clear and cold voice sounded from within the room. It seemed to be cold and emotionless.
"Azure Sun." Coughing lightly, Qingyang answered.
Moments later, the wooden door was opened from the inside. Lu Xianhan, who was dressed in green, glanced at Qingyang before turning around and walking back into the house. "Come in."
Qingyang casually closed the door behind him and said, "Miss Lu, I saw that you've been acting a little unusual since Brother Hai Fan used the Black Tortoise Body. I don't know …"
"I'm just a little tired. "It's fine." "Yes," Lu Xianhan answered flatly, his expression flat, just a little tired.
After pondering for a while, Qingyang softly said, "We are already friends. If you need any help, feel free to ask."
"Friend huh …" Hearing this, Lu Xianhan was slightly stunned, muttering to himself in a low voice, a little disappointed.
"There are many things in the world that people don't want to do. Why do you need to bury everything in your heart?" Seeming to be slightly emotional, Qingyang continued: "You'll naturally feel exhausted if you're able to endure it alone."
Lu Xianhan lowered his head in silence, his black hair covering her delicate face. It was hard to see her expression.
"Miss Lu, I'll be taking my leave. I hope you understand that we're already friends." Qingyang turned around and walked towards the wooden door.
"Wait, Azure Sun." An exhausted voice suddenly came from behind Qingyang, followed by a soft sigh, "Sit down."
Qing Yang turned around and nodded. He found a wooden chair that was close to Lu Xi Han and sat down. However, he did not open his mouth and only looked at the somewhat tired beauty in front of him.
"Do you know what the Xuanwu true body is?" Lu Xi went silent, but his words caused Qingyang to be stunned.
"Why do you ask? It should be something similar to the Southern Champion family's Mystic Bird Possession. " He didn't think too much into it.
Shaking his head, Lu Xianghan explained, "The Black Tortoise Body is something that only those with the Beitang Clan's Inherited Bloodline can achieve. And that Mystic Bird Possession is just a trick to borrow a God Beast's power."
"Actually, every once in a while, a person with inherited bloodlines will appear in the Four Clans. It might be a hundred years, or a thousand years, or even ten thousand years. When this person's bloodlines awaken, he can use his clan's divine beast's true body."
"Inherited Bloodline? The true body of the divine beast? " Taking a deep breath to calm his shock, Qingyang asked doubtfully.
"That's right. Those who possess Inherited Bloodlines not only have tyrannical cultivations and outstanding talent, they can also summon all kinds of God Beasts to fight against enemies." Lu Xianhan paused for a moment before speaking with some excitement, "As my cultivation level increases, the strength of the divine beast I use will also increase dramatically. It's said that when a person with an inherited bloodline reaches the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the divine beast they use will be the divine beast itself."
"What!?" The true form of the divine beast!? " Qingyang didn't know how powerful the divine beast itself was, but he could vaguely guess that the divine beast could sweep through all of the Nine Prefectures without any suspense.
"Mm. It has been thousands of years since anyone has received a Bloodline Inheritance in the Four Great Clans." "Today, there's actually one. Furthermore, it's the Crown Prince of Beitang." The self-deprecating tone of his voice made it difficult for Qingyang to figure out what was going on.
"Could it be that someone with a bloodline will affect the momentum of the three kingdoms?" After a moment of consideration, Qingyang asked.
"Perhaps, the power of bloodlines is not something we can anticipate." Gently muttering to himself, Lu Xianhan no longer spoke.
"Miss Lu, may I ask, how do you know all these secrets?" Azure Sun couldn't help asking.
He raised his head and looked at Qingyang. A moment later, his small mouth let out a sentence that shocked Qingyang: "Because he is my elder brother."
