The Legends: The Tale of Immortality
Chapter 10: The Appearance of Holy Blood Outside the List

"Yun Xiao Ge, what's wrong with the two of them?" BaiLi Yun Yi recovered from his excitement after realizing the whereabouts of BaiLi Yun Lan and BaiLi Yun Hua.

The person being asked simply shook his head slowly, sighed, and smiled bitterly.

"Si Ying (Death Shadow) from the Assassin Association visited us."

BaiLi Yun Xiao explained everything that happened briefly. BaiLi Yun Yi looked at his elder brother with a complicated look and said, "If I'm not wrong, then, isn't the Si Ying you mean the same woman as the woman who almost became your fiance that year?"

BaiLi Yun Xiao stared blankly and asked doubtfully, "That year?"

Seeing BaiLi Yun Xiao's reaction, BaiLi Yun Yi knew that her brother did not remember what happened that year. The sound of knocking on the door interfered with the conversation of the two who also saved BaiLi Yun Yi from clearing away BaiLi Yun Xiao's confusion.

BaiLi Yun Xiao, "Please enter."

The door opened and revealed a black-clothed female figure that looked graceful and mysterious.

BaiLi Yun Xiao, "Miss Si Ying, what's the need?"

Si Ying smiled softly, "As I said, I will give you an explanation for my disrespectful actions tonight."

Although BaiLi Yun Xiao had a not-so-good impression of Si Ying, he still politely invited guests to sit down. Si Ying still maintained his smile then glanced at BaiLi Yun Yi, "Young Master Yun Yi, long time no see. Congratulations on your success progressing to level 5."

BaiLi Yun Yi did not change his expression and slightly nodded, "Thank you."

Of course if BaiLi Yun Yi had not heard BaiLi Yun Xiao's story, he would probably be grateful for the congratulations he received. Si Ying looked back at BaiLi Yun Xiao and said, "You guys must have just arrived at this place not for long, so you guys are certainly not very clear with some things in Luo Xing City."

"Our Assassin Association has issued a new mission to capture cultivators who will advance to level 5 and this mission lasts for one month. All arrested, without exception."

BaiLi Yun Xiao frowned, "What does the Assassins Association mean? Arresting people and causing chaos everywhere, do you intend to commit offences?"

"Qing Yue's words were a little too heavy. What kind of violation is meant? If we had indeed gone too far, the people in Luo Xing Academy would have already intervened," Si Ying replied casually.

BaiLi Yun Xiao was silent.

Whether it was BaiLi Yun Xiao who was involved in the conversation, BaiLi Yun Yi who was just listening in silence, or BaiLi Yun Hua who was pretending to be unconscious, none of the three were stupid. Anyone who heard Si Ying's statement, could grasp the hidden meaning in her words.

The arrest mission issued by the Assassins Association that caused terror for the residents of Luo Xing City, had already violated the established law. Luo Xing Academy was supposed to assign her students to deal with this, but it didn't? So Luo Xing Academy insisted on turning a blind eye and ear to this, it was an impossible matter, unless...

This action had been approved by Luo Xing Academy's side or was even indeed requested by them.

BaiLi Yun Xiao had never developed his mind to this idea because he had mobilized the Qing Yue Guards stationed in Luo Xing City. All the necessary information was sent to him. The effectiveness of the Qing Yue Guards need not be said anymore. As the owner of this power, he had the best understanding. But in the information he received not recorded this problem.

Within Luo Xing Academy, the Qing Yue Guards embedded not only two or three people. There were about dozens placed in various identities. There was no way they would not have realized this unless it was actually the work of the high echelons there...

At this moment, Si Ying's voice broke the silence, "There's no need to think about it. Qing Yue, even if you investigate the entire city, it is impossible to find anything. In Luo Xing City your strength is completely useless if a certain party is indeed willing."

The already tense atmosphere, became increasingly stiff. BaiLi Yun Xiao's silence had indirectly acknowledged Si Ying's words. BaiLi Yun Yi was not aware of the existence of the Qing Yue Guard or any other great power that BaiLi Yun Xiao had nurtured, either, but he learned that BaiLi Yun Xiao's Guang Ming Guard strength was definitely not to be underestimated.

Thinking of how her brother did not have enough ability in Luo Xing City made BaiLi Yun Yi stir up a heavy curiosity towards the power behind Luo Xing City.

BaiLi Yun Xiao had a strong indifference attitude even after Si Ying gave him a warning, "Give me the right reason, why should I hand over my clan members."

Si Ying lowered his eyelids and he sighed, "I'll tell you some points considering our relationship in the past."

"Luo Xing's Academy Recruitment this time around probably won't go smoothly. We received word that among the group of people of different races this time, there would appear holy blood that was not on the list."

BaiLi Yun Xiao was stunned. BaiLi Yun Hua felt his heartbeat almost stop. If what Si Ying said was reality, then the actions of the Assassin Association were indeed a precaution.

And the holy blood in question was probably among the level 4 cultivators who had reached the peak and were about to break through. Every time a holy blood appeared, chaos and carnage were very likely to occur. The outsiders may have slipped into this city and were waiting for an opportunity to pounce.

It's just....

BaiLi Yun Yi, "How did you guys know that?"

BaiLi Yun Yi voiced the same doubt as BaiLi Yun Hua.

Yeah, how did they find out about this? There was no word that there was a new presence of holy blood among the six races. The giant powers in each race did not have any special movements which meant that they were unaware of this.

How would a neutral power like Luo Xing City know of this? Even if the power hidden in Luo Xing City was extremely powerful and mysterious, it would be extremely difficult for them to know this personally.

Si Ying looked indifferent as he tapped his finger on the handle of the chair, "Academy Luo Xing is more terrifying than you think. Be careful, you might get killed by your own curiosity."

BaiLi Yun Yi was silent.

"Yun Yi will not go with you."

The atmosphere froze instantly.

After a moment of silence, Si Ying declared his refusal, "Sorry, I can't. It's out of my control."

BaiLi Yun Xiao looked at Si Ying's eyes and repeated, "He won't go with you."

The two stared at each other without blinking. In the face-to-face fight, Si Ying ended up being the one who took back her gaze and laughed reluctantly.

"You're still the same, very stubborn."

After laughing, Si Ying closed his eyes and smiled sinisterly. He sighed once more wryly, "Can you not trouble me. I just want to finish my job. If I don't bring him back, someone else will also take my place. Everything stays the same, what's the point of you holding it?"

BaiLi Yun Xiao softly retorted, "If someone else comes in your place, they won't complete their mission either. Yun Yi is my younger brother, I am very clear about him. He's not a holy blood."

Si Ying frowned deeply, "Even if he isn't, following me back is the best for him right now. At least I can guarantee his safety. Once the day of recruitment arrived, he would naturally be released."

BaiLi Yun Xiao still replied with about, "The safety of my clan members, there's no need to trouble the Killer Association to worry."

"Qing Yue.".", Si Ying's words were interrupted by BaiLi Yun Lan who suddenly showed signs of a breakthrough.

BaiLi Yun Xiao, "..."

The corner of Si Ying's lips twitched slightly,

Whatisthis? Why are so many people making breakthroughs today? One problem is enough for me, now another problem arises again. How am I going to convince their protector??!!

Wait up! Hasn't this woman only reached level 4 and hasn't even consolidated her foundation yet?? Why did this guy break through?....

BaiLi Yun Xiao was surprised by BaiLi Yun Lan's change. His facial expression changed instantly. BaiLi Yun Lan's current condition was clearly inappropriate for a sudden breakthrough. If he failed, then his foundation would be severely hit and he would probably regress or leave a dark wound.

Si Ying, "I'll be back later."

BaiLi Yun Xiao simply nodded.

After Si Ying left them, BaiLi Yun Xiao immediately threw a formation that protected the entire room and rushed over to BaiLi Yun Lan.

BaiLi Yun Yi would help, but he was rejected by BaiLi Yun Xiao, "No need, I will do it myself. You just broke through. Use this opportunity to strengthen your foundation."

BaiLi Yun Yi did not understand her brother's intentions, but he did not ask and simply nodded.

BaiLi Yun Xiao directly sat behind the woman, gathering her internal energy in her palm and slowly channeling it into BaiLi Yun Lan's body.

BaiLi Yun Lan's pale complexion slowly improved. A surge of spiritual energy resumed and all spiritual energy within tens of meters was pulled into the room before forming a vortex that surrounded the entire room.

BaiLi Yun Yi and BaiLi Yun Hua were shocked instantly. A powerful spiritual energy forced its way into their bodies. BaiLi Yun Yi immediately closed his eyes and started cultivating.

BaiLi Yun Yi was happy with this phenomenon, but BaiLi Yun Hua had already begun to curse in his heart.

BaiLi Yun Hua only pretended to be unconscious so the rich spiritual energy also forcibly drilled into his body. His particular physique instantly devoured all energy greedily.

Goddamnit!

BaiLi Yun Hua was a real holy blood, with a collection of spiritual energy continuously forcing his way into his body, he was forced to break through.

Due to BaiLi Yun Xiao's guidance when they were on the ship, BaiLi Yun Hua had received enlightenment, and had prepared to break through his barrier. But since he was together with a group of BaiLi clan members, especially BaiLi Yun Xiao who kept an eye on him, he had to refrain from breaking through.

Now, there was no way he could hold back, or he would explode!

BaiLi Yun Hua was sweating and his heart was slowly cooling.

Could he be found? He had tried until this moment, could it be that everything would be in vain?

BaiLi Yun Xiao who gave his attention to BaiLi Yun Lan, suddenly dropped his gaze onto BaiLi Yun Hua's body.

Her....

BaiLi Yun Hua who was in pain from the excess energy, did not notice BaiLi Yun Xiao's change. His mind was currently raging strong. BaiLi Yun Xiao divided his attention in two. One was directed to BaiLi Yun Lan and the other to BaiLi Yun Hua.

BaiLi Yun Hua felt the energy that continued to flood him slowly weaken.

Hm?

A short while after, there was no more spiritual energy surrounding BaiLi Yun Hua which made confusion and shock squash his mind.

What the hell's going on?

Before BaiLi Yun Hua could process what was going on, a strong drowsiness engulfed him. His tired mind was unable to resist the drowsiness. His consciousness slowly faded and he finally fell asleep.

While BaiLi Yun Hua lost his consciousness, BaiLi Yun Lan who received BaiLi Yun Xiao's help, broke through to level 5. The constant flow of rich spiritual energy helped him cultivate his foundation until it stabilized. BaiLi Yun Yi had also laid a solid foundation through this incident.

And for BaiLi Yun Xiao who was helping BaiLi Yun Lan, his energy was drained a lot, but every time the spiritual energy supply within him was channeled to BaiLi Yun Lan, the spiritual energy from outside was resupplying him. The amount that filled him was many times more than what he channeled. This excessive energy would be absorbed by his blood, flesh, meridians, and bones.

This cycle repeats itself many times.

The quality of BaiLi Yun Xiao's body was a little purer and the spiritual energy stored was rather excessive, both in terms of quality and quantity. The only one who considered not to be benefited in this matter might be BaiLi Yun Hua who was intending to hide his strength.

As the vortex of spiritual energy began to subside, BaiLi Yun Lan and BaiLi Yun Yi opened their eyes at the same time. The powerful joy reflected in their eyes was as clear as a mirror. BaiLi Yun Lan immediately turned around and slightly bowed, "Thank you for the Young Master's help."

BaiLi Yun Xiao smiled, "Thank you back. Thanks to you, I also received a slight benefit from this incident."

BaiLi Yun Lan's eyes emitted a sparkle, her respect for BaiLi Yun Xiao rising to an even higher level.

BaiLi Yun Xiao stood up and walked towards BaiLi Yun Hua.

BaiLi Yun Lan finally noticed the person lying on the other bed. His expression was a little agitated, "How is he doing now?"

"It's been a little better." replied BaiLi Yun Xiao who then picked up BaiLi Yun Hua.

BaiLi Yun Xiao confirmed BaiLi Yun Hua's position and then looked at the other two people, "I'll take him to my room for further recovery. You two continue your rest. Good night."

After that BaiLi Yun Xiao directly brought BaiLi Yun Hua out. The formation he created shattered when he exited the room.

The two people inside the room were a little excited, especially BaiLi Yun Lan who had managed to reach level 5. After a momentary happy period, the two suddenly froze.

What BaiLi Yun Xiao said earlier...

'You two continue your rest. Good night...'

!!!

The two men stared at each other. BaiLi Yun Lan cleared her throat and got up from her bed, "You continue your rest. I'm going back to my room."

BaiLi Yun Yi nodded slightly.

After BaiLi Yun Lan came out, BaiLi Yun Yi blinked her eyes and thought, "Yun Xiao Ge shouldn't have meant it that way."
