376. Xiao Yuchen’s Request

"I hope, Brother Lin, that you can help me capture a king-level exotic beast," Xiao Yuchen firmly expressed, "I need the bloodline of the king-level exotic beast!"

"Ah? You need the bloodline of a king-level exotic beast. Are you planning to fuse with its bloodline to achieve the title of Martial King?"

Lin Fei immediately guessed her intention. The goal of fusing with a king-level exotic beast bloodline could only be to become a Martial King. After all, in the strictest sense, Lin Fei had also fused with the bloodline of a king-level exotic beast, and that's how he achieved his Martial King status.

But there's a significant risk involved. Just because Lin Fei succeeded doesn't mean everyone else will. The ability to suppress and control the potent bloodline of a king-level exotic beast is crucial.

Lin Fei warned, "Aurora Sovereign, being from a Martial King lineage, you should be more aware than I am. Once you attempt to merge with the bloodline of a king-level exotic beast, there's no turning back. Given your circumstances, it could be highly dangerous."

Xiao Yuchen stared at Lin Fei, determination evident in her eyes. "Brother Lin, I'm well aware of the risks. Even with your influence, if I were to gain access to the family blood pool, there's no guarantee that I'll awaken the nine Divine Abilities. The only way for me to become a Martial King is to fuse with the king-level bloodline. If I take this chance, I might have an opportunity. If I don't, I'll have none..."

Lin Fei fell silent. It was clear that Xiao Yuchen was determined. In theory, descendants of the Martial King lineage can follow a prescribed path: cultivate their inner bloodlines step by step, awaken the Divine Abilities, and then become Martial Kings.

However, few manage to ascend to that level. This systematic cultivation method lacks a certain grit and urgency. Few, like Xiao Yuchen, are willing to risk it all to fuse with the bloodline of a king-level exotic beast. After all, failure means death. Currently, as a Martial Sovereign, Xiao Yuchen already has a lifespan of a thousand years, which is quite long. There's no apparent reason for her to take such a risk.UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

Seeing Lin Fei's silence, Xiao Yuchen pleaded, "I've made up my mind. Please, Brother Lin, grant me this favor."

She knew all too well that without Lin Fei's assistance, she would never acquire the king-level bloodline. After all, a king-level exotic beast is on par with great beings like the Nascent Soul or Martial King. Although the Xiao family is a Martial King lineage, they currently have no active Martial Kings. How could they possibly capture a king-level exotic beast or even obtain its bloodline? Only by seeking Lin Fei's help could she hope to acquire the bloodline of a king-level exotic beast.

"Aurora Sovereign, I grant your request," Lin Fei replied. "However, given your current state, you must awaken at least six of the Divine Abilities to potentially suppress the bloodline of the king-level exotic beast and hold a glimmer of hope in becoming the Martial King."

Within the vast Ancient Continent, there were many Martial Kings who had been titled "Saber King." Each one was outstandingly proficient in the Dao of the saber, reaching great heights. Each one of them had evolved their own Saber World. Thus, Lin Fei's title of "Saber King" was truly fitting.

Of course, the prefix "Ancient Origin" was added to distinguish him from other Saber Kings. The ceremony concluded swiftly. However, just because the ceremony ended didn't mean the news about Lin Fei had.

On the contrary, during the ceremony, Lin Fei displayed his saber lineage bloodline and evolved the Saber World, leaving many factions in awe. The title "Ancient Origin Saber King" spread across the entire Ancient Continent, with countless factions recognizing his great name. Many were even sentimental, as the Ancient Continent had birthed another "Saber King."

However, the current Ancient Origin Saber King, Lin Fei, had already left the Ancient Origin Sect. Together with Xiao Yuchen, he arrived at the Xiao family's residence.

Naturally, the Xiao family, being well aware of the renowned "Ancient Origin Saber King," welcomed him warmly. When Lin Fei expressed his desire to examine the Divine Abilities collected by the Xiao family, they immediately agreed.

After all, these Divine Abilities were collected by the Xiao family. As long as they weren't specific to the Xiao family's bloodline, they were happy to let Lin Fei browse through them.

Moreover, with the connection through Xiao Yuchen, the Xiao family felt secure, knowing that should any major trouble arise, the Ancient Origin Saber King, Lin Fei, would surely not stand by idly.

Xiao family, Divine Ability Tower.

This was Lin Fei's second visit to the Divine Ability Tower. This time, however, Lin Fei did not have any tokens. Yet, the elders guarding the Divine Ability Tower did not dare to slack off and welcomed him in.

"Please, Saber King, feel free to explore," one of them said with the utmost respect. "Whatever you need, just let us know. We will be standing guard outside the Divine Ability Tower."

With these words, the venerable elder of the Xiao family guarding the Divine Ability Tower left discreetly. Lin Fei was now the sole individual inside the entire Divine Ability Tower.
