116: Is her blood very precious?
116: Is her blood very precious?
“Hmph, we all know you aren’t Mo Jiuli, it’s just that the Crown Prince refuses to believe it.
It wouldn’t be too much trouble for you to take the test, would it?
After all, it’s just a bit of fresh blood.
As a compensation, I can give you a bottle of top-grade Blood Replenishing Pill!” Said Mo Jiuqi politely.
Nevertheless, her words made it hard for Mo Jiuli to refuse.
“Miss Mo, you can rest assured and go ahead with the test!
She isn’t of the Mo Family’s bloodline, even if she merged with the essence blood pearl of the Mo Family.
Relax, with the few of us here, your identity won’t be exposed, it’s just her…” The voice of the Mo Family Ancestor echoed in Mo Jiuli’s ears.
Mo Jiuli had initially planned to simply slap these people away, but now that she’s been reassured by the Mo Family old man, she decided to humour them for a bit longer…
“A top-grade Blood Replenishing Pill?
If it’s a sixth-grade elixir, I could reluctantly help you prove it!” Mo Jiuli said with an ironic smile.
“You…” Mo Jiuqi’s pretty face turned red with anger, but she found herself at a loss for words in front of Mo Jiuli.
What could she say?
She wanted a sixth-grade elixir too.
Besides, they were, in fact, helping her prove her identity, all because the Crown Prince insisted she was Mo Jiuli…
“Alright then, now that the miss is willing to cooperate, let’s begin…” The grey-clothed old man immediately tried to de-escalate the situation.
Lazy to continue beating around the bush with these people, Mo Jiuli chose to remain silent.
After Mo Jiuqi instructed for two clean teacups to be brought over, she cut her fingertip, allowing the blood to flow into the teacup.
She stopped after filling about half a teacup, then looked at Mo Jiuli, signaling that it was her turn…
Mo Jiuli looked at the four Mo Family old men, and she was preparing to cut her finger and bleed when they nodded their approval…
At this moment, the little book in the space suddenly wandered out.
Before it could figure out what its master was doing, it spotted Mo Jiuli seeming to be on the point of cutting her fingertip to bleed…
The little book yelled in shock, its young voice chiming, “Master, how could you bleed in front of mere mortals!
Don’t you know how precious your blood is?
If someone were to find out, a thousand lives wouldn’t be enough to save you!”
Mo Jiuli was dazed by the little book’s sudden reprimand.
Her blood was precious?
Why didn’t she know that?
Plus, it just involved donating some blood.
Was the little guy too fierce?
So, should she bleed or not?
Mo Jiuli hesitated for a moment, and everyone outside was staring at Mo Jiuli in confusion, wondering what was going on…
“Little Book, I need some blood right now.
You’d better explain yourself quickly, or you’ll see what happens!” Mo Jiuli threatened in her mind.
“Hmm, you can bleed now!
But, don’t take too much, and make sure to have Xue Feng help you dilute the scent of your blood later.
I’ll explain everything to you when you’re done…,” the Little Book retorted grumpily.
“Okay, I got it!” At the words of the Little Book, Mo Jiuli was slightly relieved, then communicated with Xue Feng.
She then proceeded to cut her fingertip and let the blood flow.
As the blood from Mo Jiuli was about to flow out, a transparent glow ran over Xue Feng’s fingertips, which he applied to the wound on Mo Jiuli’s finger…
Despite this, the moment Mo Jiuli’s blood flowed out, a faint fragrance filled the air, tickling the noses of the crowd.
These were all formidable people, especially the four Mo Family Elders, whose eyes glinted as they approvingly looked at Mo Jiuli…
Then, each of the four old men’s fingers subtly moved.
Except for Xue Feng, no one noticed their actions…
Mo Jiuli stopped after she had filled about half a teacup with blood.
As they smelled the faint aroma emanating from Mo Jiuli’s blood, the two elders from the royal family were watching Mo Jiuli with furrowed brows and subtle gazes, as if pondering something…
At that time, there was a commotion at the inn’s entrance.
It turned out that the Brothers General Mo and Mo Chenfeng from the General’s Mansion heard the news and rushed over.
Seeing the four Mo Family Elders, the two brothers felt a shiver down their spines…
Today, strange phenomena were observed at this inn, attracting many strong people to investigate.
Then, Elder Luan from the royal family was slapped to death.
Soon after, the Third Prince brought Princess Min to arrest someone, only to have Princess Min also killed.
All the great forces had already received the news, including the General’s Mansion…
However, this was the business of the Fengyun Royal Family, and many forces didn’t bother to meddle.
The Mo Family Brothers had previously received the Mo Family ancestor’s order to cancel Mo Jiuli’s engagement.
But their plea was directly declined by the Emperor in the court…
Even after knowing all these things, the two of them didn’t react.
They were discussing how to get the royal family to agree to cancel the engagement when they suddenly received a message from the Mo family ancestor, asking them to come immediately…
He also told them about Mo Jiuqi’s plan to test her blood relationship with Mo Jiuli.
The old man from the Mo family cunningly asked them to keep an eye on Mo Jiuqi’s mother, Mo Caiyun, and forbade her from coming…
Though the Mo Brothers didn’t understand the ancestor’s intent, they followed his orders…
They couldn’t help but wonder why Jiuqi would want to test her blood relationship with someone out of the blue.
Could it be, the Ancestor had an illegitimate daughter outside…
One had to say, the Mo Brothers have really let their imaginations run wild…
The Mo Brothers arrived and did not greet their ancestor, as per his instructions not to reveal their identity.
Therefore, they directly greeted Crown Prince Ouyang Luoxi and the others…
As for the two ancestors of the royal family, whom they had never met before and did not recognize, they only gave a symbolic greeting after being introduced by the Crown Prince…
Upon meeting her uncles, Mo Jiuqi quickly explained the situation.
When the brothers heard this, they examined Mo Jiuli carefully.
They found Mo Jiuli’s eyes somewhat resembled their younger sister’s, but the temperament was completely different, and the rest didn’t look alike.
They thought it was not possible that Mo Jiuli could be their sister’s child…
Although they were a bit displeased about Mo Jiuqi’s actions, they figured she had no choice but to act due to the Crown Prince’s stubbornness.
“Uncles, since you are here, I’ll leave the rest to you!” Mo Jiuqi said obediently.
“Yes, we’ll have to trouble General Mo then!” Ouyang Luoxi chimed in.
Mo Chenfeng nodded slightly and said, “I know what to do; Your Highness can rest assured!”
After he finished speaking, Mo Chenfeng went to the table and looked at the two half cups of blood in the teacups on the table.
He gathered his dark energy into his palm, lifted the two cups of blood, and gently shook them.
The blood in the cups flowed out as if commanded and gathered in midair, but it could not merge…
Except for its light scent, Mo Jiuli’s blood was exceptionally bright red and flowed straight into midair under Mo Chenfeng’s guidance.
But when Mo Jiuqi’s blood started to flow into midair, its color suddenly darkened and carried a faint unpleasant smell, despite being very light, it couldn’t escape the noses of everyone present.
Most peculiarly, her blood seemed to fear Mo Jiuli’s blood – not only could it not merge, it even seemed to want to escape…
