She Who Cultivates Has the Bloodline of a Divine Beast

She is powerful but low-key, occasionally crazy but generally keeps a low profile, and never shows off.

From a waste who could barely establish her foundation to a genius summoner with an awa...

Chapter 22 Past Events

It's very lively outside today.

The little sea sprites say that today is the sixth princess's wedding day, and the Dragon Palace is hosting a three-day grand banquet, which is very lively.

Logically speaking, no matter how lively the lobby was, the noise shouldn't have reached her corner. However, she always felt that she could hear laughter and see blurry figures.

The Sixth Princess is now 1,100 years old, which is younger than Wei Jiao. She is a Azure Dragon and her strength is considerable.

She was only considered pretty, and she had a rather arrogant personality. She was aloof and looked down on everyone, and ordinary men couldn't catch her eye. Among all the men in the world, only Shuo Yuan could get her smile and a few warm words.

Besides her, the eleventh and seventeenth princesses of the North Sea, and the ninth and thirteenth princesses of the South Sea were all suspects of Wei Jiao.

There are more men than women in the West Sea, and they have no dealings with her family, so she has basically ruled out suspicion in the West Sea. As for the East Sea, there are too many suspects. Wei Jiao's plan is to first investigate the suspects in the North Sea and the South Sea. If they are not the suspects, then go directly to the East Sea. Most of the responsibility for this matter still lies with the East Sea.

Beihai was a deep blue, and the hall was decorated in blue and white as well, making the entire Dragon Palace look dreamy and refreshing. Guests came and went in an endless stream at the banquet, clinking glasses and exchanging toasts. The bride and groom were in the center, also entertaining guests. Wei Jiao watched from the edge of the crowd, feeling that the scene before him was very similar to the scene when he first saw Shuo Yuan, and he felt a little dazed.

Suddenly, her arm was supported, and a concerned voice said, "Sister, you don't seem to be feeling well. Shall I take you to rest for a bit?" Then, turning to Yu Shao beside her, she said, "Your Highness, my sister may not be used to the underwater environment. Could you please find her a room to rest?"

Yu Shao was somewhat surprised, but he still found a maid to arrange a room for them: "Then you should rest first. The banquet will last for two more days. When you feel better, you can have the maid bring you over."

"Thank you, Your Highness." After expressing his gratitude, Qingye led Wei Jiao to his room to rest.

With all the aquatic creatures present, Wei Jiao had to be extremely careful to conceal her spiritual power. Fortunately, she was protected by two lotus leaves and was not discovered. However, this was very mentally taxing. Moreover, for some reason, she felt that the spiritual energy within her body was surging more and more violently and was very difficult to control. Coupled with the confusion in her thoughts, she was really having a headache. Fortunately, Qing Ye stepped in to help her out in time.

After arriving at the room, Qingye helped Wei Jiao regulate her breathing for a while to stabilize her spiritual power. Then they secretly sneaked out to search for the place where Shui Cheng might live.

Qingye frowned as he looked at Wei Jiao.

"In the ancient primordial era, the black dragon was the ruler of all dragons, but do you know why it is now the rarest and almost extinct?"

Wei Jiao withdrew his hand and looked at Qing Ye, not understanding why he suddenly said this.

What do you mean?

"The Black Dragon is incredibly powerful but also rebellious and irritable. Because of its demonic bloodline, it is prone to demonic transformation. The disaster 100,000 years ago was mainly caused by the Black Dragon King, a subordinate of the God Gonggong, and his henchmen. You should have sensed it. Ever since you learned that there might be more to the story back then, your temper has become increasingly irritable. Although you are consciously trying to control yourself, your blood is boiling. If I remove the barrier now, the dragons of the North Sea will immediately sense your presence."

“Actually, your situation isn’t difficult. You can find out the truth either by yourself or with Qingye by your side. However, Qingye knows that you are a black dragon, and the violence in your bloodline cannot be controlled so easily. Moreover, you haven’t undergone the tribulation of lightning, and the negative energy from your cultivation has been accumulating in your body, which is a very big hidden danger. If you can’t control yourself, you might directly kill the person you suspect, regardless of whether she is related to the case.”

Wei Jiao frowned. Although she was indeed very angry after learning all this, she couldn't possibly do what Qing Ye said... could she? Thinking about this, she was somewhat uncertain, and the thought of destroying the North Sea or the East Sea actually excited her!

"this······"

"You've noticed it too, haven't you? The influence of your bloodline will become increasingly significant. Qingye went to my master partly to ask me to help you find the truth as soon as possible, but more importantly, to observe you so that I could alert you if your spiritual energy fluctuations were abnormal. The reason I appeared beside you is twofold: firstly, my destiny requires me to seek answers in the mortal realm, and secondly, I can create a barrier to isolate your spiritual energy fluctuations."

"My father is a black dragon, and my mother is a white dragon. I have never heard of any black dragon blood in my family. Why did I cultivate into a black dragon?"

"I don't know why you have the bloodline of a black dragon, but the reason you haven't been able to cultivate into a dragon body for over a thousand years must be due to the suppression of the Heavenly Dao. Originally, if you cultivated normally, you wouldn't have been able to become a dragon, but in the Abyss of Desolation, the suppression of the Heavenly Dao weakened, so you quickly cultivated into a dragon and obtained the Azure Cloud Heaven. You need to understand this. Now, the Three Realms don't welcome black dragons. You've been hiding very well, so you haven't encountered any trouble. Once you expose yourself, many people will want you dead, especially the Azure Cloud Heaven. Once those with ill intentions find out, it will be like a child carrying gold in a bustling market."

“My fusion with my substitute is not high, so I can’t use magic often, including this barrier. That’s why I’m telling you this now. You can’t stay in the North Sea anymore. The Heavenly Dao can no longer suppress you. In addition, you are now in the North Sea Dragon Palace, where the spiritual energy is abundant. Your body will automatically absorb the spiritual energy. Moreover, your blood relatives are here, so they can be easily sensed.”

"Thank you for telling me all this. I hadn't thought about these issues before, but now is a crucial moment. I'll soon find out who my enemies are, and I can't leave."

“If you are discovered, then there will really be no way to find the real culprit. I have already contacted Qingye, and I will help you investigate the rest. She will come here and impersonate you to continue the investigation. Once the real culprit is identified, we will not stop you from taking revenge in whatever way you want. You should take advantage of this time to increase the spiritual energy level of Biyuntian and stabilize your own realm, so that you will have a way to protect yourself in case of any accidents.”

Wei Jiao was silent for a moment: "Alright, take the lotus bead with you. If anything happens, have it contact me."

"Alright, go ahead. The current barrier can block your aura."

Wei Jiao took the lotus seed off his wrist and handed it to Qing Ye, jokingly asking, "Aren't you afraid I'm lying to you?"

Wei Jiao smiled and said, "I first learned about Bi Yuntian in front of Qing Ye, and then my soul followed her to the underworld. That was the first time we met. If she wanted to harm me, she would have succeeded long ago. Although she seems to have many secrets, I believe her, so I believe you too."
