However, Xiu Qiyu did not show any surprise on her face. She stood straight on the magnificent ground, like a vigorous and upright pine tree.

"My descendant, you've finally come?"

"Yes, I have arrived. As you can see, my bloodline is not pure. If you have any important inheritance, you should hold on until the right person comes along!"

"No, I can feel the aura of my bloodline. This level of bloodline concentration is rarely seen even in ancient times. The Holy Son of the Ice Spirit Clan."

“I think you may have misunderstood something. I was expelled from the Ice Spirit Clan when I was young, and I have no connection with the Ice Spirit Clan now. If they hurt my mother, then they are enemies.”

The master of the Crystal Palace never expected that after waiting for thousands of years, he would finally find a successor who met all the requirements, only to have the Ice Spirit Clan break up with him and even shout that they would fight to the death. Did he have it easy?

“There must be some misunderstanding here. As far as I know, you are not yet an adult and cannot control the energy in your body. This is because your bloodline has not been activated, and the power hidden in your bloodline cannot be used by you.”

"And then? I don't mind abandoning this identity and living as an ordinary human. Who are you? Why did you bring me here? What is your purpose? Speak!" Xiu Qiyu had no good feelings towards the entire Ice Spirit Clan, especially his nominal father, who, as the clan leader, was unfaithful to his wife and even condoned his lover's poisoning of his wife and children.

It seems this little guy harbors quite a bit of resentment: "If your bloodline fails to awaken, your strength will stagnate. Can you bear to see your lover, your friends, and even your enemies stride forward while you remain stagnant, left far behind and only able to watch their backs?"

How could things have turned out like this? Can he ever go back to that place? But if he doesn't go back, what right does he have to stand beside Xiao Yezi?

"How does the fully awakened bloodline of our Ice Spirit Clan compare to that of a Divine Master?" Xiu Qiyu couldn't help but ask this question.

The voice paused for a moment before speaking: "Divine Masters possess the bloodline of immortals and gods. Even the most useless Divine Master can cultivate to the level of a Celestial Immortal. As for those with a strong immortal and god bloodline, becoming an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor is not impossible. Of course, the bloodline of our Ice Spirit Clan is not so simple either. With your aptitude, if your bloodline awakens successfully, cultivating to the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal is not a problem. As for becoming an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor, you will need to find another opportunity."

The bloodline of immortals and gods is such a noble existence. It seems that Xiao Yezi's background is not as simple as everyone guessed.

"Can one awaken their bloodline without returning to their clan?"

"The Ice Spirit Clan members must awaken before the age of eighteen. It is your good fortune to meet me, and it is my blessing to have waited for you."

"So there's a way," Xiu Qiyu's eyes lit up. "As long as there's a way, that's good."

"I am Bing Chen, the 68th generation Third Elder of the Ice Spirit Clan. I went out to find my elder brother, but I was ambushed and perished halfway. It is only thanks to the heavens that I was able to hold on until your arrival today. You have suffered a great injustice, but the blood of the Ice Spirit Clan flows in your veins, and that cannot be changed. I only hope that you will remember this bloodline bond."

"Please rest assured, Elder. If they don't go to extremes, I am not a heartless person." Having been away for so long, Xiu Qiyu was indifferent to everything there.

"Go to the backyard, activate the spiritual spring, and I will help you awaken your bloodline."

"Thank you, Elder."

It was still a drop of blood that opened the formation. Passing through the winding path, faint energy could be seen emanating from the air, which Xiu Qiyu silently absorbed.

The spiritual spring had dried up considerably and was now barely big enough for one person to soak in. The voice rang out again: "Go to the left side of the stone wall. There is a hollow spot. Pour the contents of the hollow spot into the spiritual spring."

Then a book appeared in front of Xiu Qiyu: "This book contains the precautions. Take a look at it first, and be prepared before you begin your awakening. Remember, child, you only have one chance."

Xiu Qiyu sat down and began to study the booklet. The booklet recorded the concentration, level, and advantages of bloodline, as well as the methods to stimulate bloodline, and some experiences from predecessors, both successful and unsuccessful, which could all be used as a reference.

Xiu Qiyu studied it carefully for a long time, and then, following the instructions of the Third Elder, knocked open the hole in the stone wall and took out three bottles of fresh blood.

The first bottle was bright red, the second bottle was bright red with an icy blue sheen, and the third bottle was transparent.

"Drink the first bottle to mobilize the power of your bloodline and resonate with the essence of your ancestors. Pour the second bottle into the spiritual spring as an external aid to awaken your bloodline. After you successfully awaken your bloodline, refine the third bottle of blood. This is the last thing I can do for you."

"Thank you, Elder."

Xiu Qiyu didn't think twice. This elder must have been incredibly powerful during his lifetime and must have left behind many contingency plans. Dealing with a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like him would be a simple matter. Why would he go to such lengths to help him awaken his bloodline?

The blood looked quite ordinary, but after drinking it, it felt like he had taken some kind of super tonic, and Xiu Qiyu's face quickly turned red.

"Quick, jump in."

After pouring the second bottle of blood into the spiritual spring water, Xiu Qiyu took off her outer robe and jumped in.

The moment Xiu Qiyu jumped down, all the formations around the spiritual spring opened, and countless, dense spiritual energy surged towards Xiu Qiyu's body.

Xiu Qiyu mobilized her bloodline power as instructed in the book. Although she loathed the Ice Spirit Clan, the moment she drank the blood, her blood began to boil, clamoring to refine this energy-rich blood.

Xiu Qiyu sat in the spiritual spring and began to cultivate. Soon, he restored himself to his best condition and continued to absorb the pure energy. The purest energy from the second bottle of blood also began to enter Xiu Qiyu's body and be refined and absorbed by him.

Xiu Qiyu's complexion returned to normal. More and more bloodline power was being refined by him, and the blood within his body seemed to be surging more and more violently. If one were to look inward, one could see the specks of icy blue fluorescence in Xiu Qiyu's bloodline. These fluorescences were increasing in number, and Xiu Qiyu's aura was becoming stronger and stronger.

The energy in the spiritual spring water and the energy gathered in the formation were absorbed by Xiu Qiyu in large quantities. Xiu Qiyu closed his eyes, and if you looked closely, you could see that his handsome face seemed to be glowing. His features became more three-dimensional and deep, and he was so beautiful that he was otherworldly. His jet-black hair also silently covered the entire surface of the water. Although it was still black, you could vaguely see a touch of ice blue in the flow of spiritual energy.
