Chapter 44: The Greatest Cheater

"Interesting offer... But I refuse!"

"What?" Four of them reacted simultaneously.

Xu Sanshan couldn't believe his ears for a moment because reviving the Eternal Night Royal Family was a noble duty. They have passed over ten generations to reach this point.

However, they would have never thought their youngest prince would reject his noble duty. Xu Sanshan and Xu Nannan stared at each other before laughing in helplessness.

"Hahaha~!"

"Well, there is nothing we can do about it."

"Hmm, I thought you were going to push it harder?" Yu Long was stunned by their reactions.

Xu Nannan shook her head gently and replied, "Yu Long, you're no older than twelve."

"I am eleven." Yu Long responded casually.

"See? You're still too young to carry our burden. So, it's understandable that you refused our offer." Xu Nannan giggled in amusement.

"And at such a tender age, you have attained the strength of a 'Throne' than any of us. You have many years to learn and understand the bitter pain of this contingency plan."

"Not to mention, you haven't awakened your natural bloodline and physique yet."

"You can be much, much, much stronger than this."

"No, you might even reach the legendary Profound God Realm."

"When you're ready, the Eternal King's position shall be yours." Xu Nannan grabbed his hand and kissed it. "Your grandma and grandpa can wait."

"The prophecy was made. Our blood and flesh will fulfill it."

"Our blood and flesh will fulfill it." Xu Sanshan continued firmly. He put on a melancholic expression as this chant echoes through ten generations.

Yu Long wanted to tell them that reviving the Eternal Night Royal Family wasn't that hard. However, sensing their moods, he decided not to say anything and revealed his cards slowly.

Eventually, they would know that the Four Great Sacred Grounds are nothing in this Primal Chaos.

The Blue Pole Star is just a starting place.

There are countless stars out there.

After that, they catch up with each other.

Yu Long only listened to the adults and suddenly asked, "This is a weird thing to request, but can I take a few drops of your blood?"

"I mean, four of you."

"What do you need them for?" Xu Sanshan curiously returned.

Yu Long smiled and answered calmly, "Besides the profound art and organization, I also developed some methods to determine one's ancestry through bloodline."

"If I had your blood, there might be a way to rekindle some lost power through the generations."

"S-Something like that is possible?" Xu Nannan's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yes." Yu Long nodded, snapping his fingers. An image-capturing array showed them the genetic maps of the scarlet dragon's bloodline.

"This is the genetic map of the scarlet dragon. It was the descendant of a True Dragon, meaning its blood carries mighty power."

"I have studied the pattern behind the bloodline's genetic map and comprehended a new field of power."

"I call it Profound Aspect."

Yu Xin squinted her eyes while gazing at the genetic maps, "And what is this Profound Aspect?"

"To put it shortly, it's the essence of raw components." Yu Long calmly explained.

"What's the aspect of Fire?"

"Heat, Power, etcetera."

"Aspect contains all that from one's subject, and others are allowed to wield with enough preparation." He chuckled and summoned a bright scarlet-colored flame, shocking his parents and grandparents.

"This is the scarlet dragon's flame."

"I shouldn't be able to wield it, but I did."

"Um, big brother."

"I sensed two powerful presences a while ago."

"Are they perhaps enemies?"

'Her sense is sharp as usual.' Yu Long commented in his heart.

He smiled and responded, "At first, yes. But then I learned that they are my maternal grandfather and grandmother."

"Y-Your maternal grandfather and grandmother?!" Xia Qingyue blinked her eyes as she was stunned. She didn't expect the identities of two unknown presences to be like this.

Yu Long pinched her cheeks and added, "Don't make such a face. I'm not that close with them."

"I only know about them today."

"Eh... " Xia Qingyue and Yume were speechless.

"But... They are still my blood relatives, so greet them once you meet them." Yu Long released her cheeks.

"Qingyue understands!" Xia Qingyue put on a solemn look.

'How cute.' Yu Long thought to himself.

He turned around and said, "We'll meet later for dinner. I'll do some research."

"Yume, follow me."

"Yes, my lord!" Yume skipped on the ground and followed Yu Long like a duckling.

"Okay, see you later~!" Xia Qingyue waved her hand at Yunlong, and the latter responded with the same gesture.

Yu Long and Yume entered a sealed chamber surrounded by several protective arrays. Inside the room, there are four tables and countless equipment they usually use.

He pulled four injections and placed them in testing tubes, using [Kaiju Maker] to forcibly read them to the subatomic level. Memories flashed in Yunlong's head, and he forcibly broke apart the impurities in these drops of blood as he did to Phoenix Clan's bloodline.

Profound patterns after profound patterns.

Yu Long's golden eyes observed every node and recorded them in his head. [Thought Acceleration] has activated beyond anyone could imagine, allowing his mind to function rapidly.

Yume supported Yu Long with her Psychic Force, and Yuyan quietly landed beside them.

'Why do I feel the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign's presence here?' She asked in confusion.

'Yuyan, help! I'm on the verge of depleting my Psychic Force!' Yume said with a pale expression.

'Oh, okay.' Yuyan closed her eyes and sent a wave of her mental power to support [Kaiju Maker]'s ability.

One hour passed, and Yume dropped to the floor.

Two hours later, Yuyan released a cold sweat from her face.

After three hours, the blood in the vials becomes extraordinary-looking.

The first blood is purple-colored with a tint of copper.

The second blood is green-colored with a beautiful vibrancy.

The third blood looks like ordinary human blood, which is red. However, there is a faint sense of wind element from it.

And finally, fourth blood.

This blood is milky white with veins all over it. It has a purplish hue, resembling the first blood.

"Done." Yu Long dropped to the floor, but Yuyan quickly used her body as a cushion.

"Aahn~!" Yuyan moaned in delight.

"If I weren't so tired, I'd curse at you..." Yu Long groaned helplessly.

"But thanks, Yume, Yuyan."

"You guys might not realize it, but we just got another supply of test subjects."

He grinned and stared at the four vials of unique-colored blood, "Variant at that! They are going to open a whole new path for us!"

"Hahaha, I'm the greatest cheater in this world~!" His delightful laugh echoes in the sealed chamber.
