Luo Youyou was in a dilemma. If she insisted on going, these people would not let her go alone. They were like tied together. But if everyone went together, these people might turn to ashes before they even entered the door.
The news from the last word is never wrong. The Nofel tribe will never convey any news that has not been screened and verified. The authenticity and reliability of the news is a kind of honor for them. Every time a message is passed on, they will bet the honor of the clan to carefully verify it. They regard this as the meaning of their existence. Whether in the secret party or in Luo Youyou, the authenticity of the news is of vital importance.
Jia Yi, a man filled with a lust for power and a desire for survival, values his own life above all else and would never go to the heavens alone. He wouldn't even approach the forbidden lands of the vampires without complete preparation and a large group of troops protecting him. With the exception of Luo Yun's death, every step he took was carefully considered.
Even if the vampires have a powerful secret treasure, they cannot protect so many people. So how did he do it?
There must be a way.
Luo Youyou tried to comfort herself, but she couldn't calm her inner anxiety. Everyone was staring at her, not waiting for her to make a decision, but for her to give the order and tell her when to go. Being trusted so unconditionally was truly a sweet burden. Was it a blessing or a curse?
"Remember Brother Yaxi..." Jing Yan saw Mu Long's expression change, so he changed his address and continued, "Remember the barrier created by that human's supernatural power? The vampires couldn't get close to him. What if we could do the opposite, and let Mu Yaxi create a barrier to put us all inside and block the sunlight from the heavens? Is that something we could try?"
"Ya Xi doesn't have the ability to do that now." Mu Long immediately retorted. This idea could be done in theory, but in this case, the responsibility of protecting everyone would fall on Mu Ya Xi. Her current ability couldn't even protect herself, so doing so would be tantamount to sending everyone to their deaths.
"If he can do it, why can't I?" Mu Yaxi was not convinced.
Mu Long didn't want to explain to her the issue of inheritance of abilities between men and women in the family, otherwise Mu Yaxi would think that he favored boys over girls, so he avoided the main issue and said, "You are too young, and the time it took for your abilities to awaken was too short."
"I'll try." Mu Yaxi said and ran to the yard regardless of Mu Long's objection.
The grass in the yard was lush and green, gleaming in the sunlight. An occasional breeze swept across the grass, stirring up layers of emerald green ripples. She stood in the sun, trying to form a barrier around herself to protect herself from the sun, but before it could be fully formed, it was shattered by a breeze.
Mu Yaxi was not convinced and her little face was puffed up with anger. She tried again, but it was blown away again.
"I don't believe it!" Mu Yaxi stamped his feet anxiously.
"Ya Xi, don't try, you are not good enough yet." Mu Long also stood at the door. He wanted to see how far Mu Ya Xi's abilities had awakened, but he finally found that he could not escape the arrangement of fate.
The ancestor of the Mu family left behind a bottle of original blood, which was prepared for the heir of the Mu family. When the person that the Mu family wants to protect, that is, Luo Youyou, awakens his ability, this bottle of original blood will be inherited by this generation of guardians through the Mu family's ceremony, so as to bring the ability of the Mu family to the extreme. This is the agreement between the Mu family and Barlow.
However, the original blood was too powerful, and Mu Yaxi's ability was unlocked in a short time. If he couldn't withstand such power, he would be digging his own grave. Mu Long originally wanted Mu Yaxi to inherit the original blood at the age of 25. Now, he hesitated.
On the one hand, he was worried that Mu Yaxi would be doomed by the power of the original blood, but on the other hand, he knew that these people would not give up their efforts.
No one knew what the heavens looked like now. With Mu Yaxi's current abilities, rushing in rashly might just lead to his own death...
Mu Long weighed the pros and cons and decided, since that was the case, he might as well give it a try. He returned to the living room and stood in front of an oil painting hanging there. It was a huge painting left by the Mu family's ancestors, stretching from the roof to the ground, taking up the entire front.
It is said to be a portrait of an ancestor, but it is impossible to verify who it is. The portrait shows a woman who looks gentle and charming, with a faint smile on her lips, which seems to be there and not there, thick black hair, and a barely visible mole at the corner of her lips. This mole has been inherited by almost all descendants of the Mu family.
The Mu family has lived here for generations, and the house has been renovated over generations to its present appearance. It is like a paradise fallen in the bustling world, untainted by dust.
With the economic strength of the Mu family, they can move to a more prosperous city, but they cannot leave, because under this courtyard that looks peaceful and quiet, there is a huge altar. This altar is the secret that the Mu family has guarded for generations.
"It's time." Mu Long muttered to himself as he looked at the portrait, and pried open an inconspicuous button on the right side of the frame. The button looked more like a barb on the frame due to poor workmanship.
The barbs scratched the wooden dragon's wrist, and blood quickly spread along the grooves on the edge of the frame to the entire frame. A totem was outlined in blood on the metal frame, like a blooming blood-colored Udumbara.
Mu Long still placed his wrist on the picture frame. The blood stopped spreading for a while, and suddenly the totem on the picture frame came to life. Like ants moving, the totems broke into small pieces, flew onto the portrait, and gathered towards the ancestor's earlobes.
After a while, the Udumbara flowers turned into one and froze at the base of the ear, like a blood-colored tattoo.
The painting creaked open like a door, a door that hadn't moved in thousands of years, suddenly opening with a huge friction sound, shaking the whole house. Everyone was shocked to find that the painting was actually one with the wall behind it.
This wall looks no different from a modern reinforced concrete wall from the outside, but it is actually a huge integrated stone door that is three meters high.
The most surprising thing is that the other side of this wall is clearly the grassland outside, but when it is opened, it seems to lead to another world. It is a chaos inside, and you can vaguely see the stairs leading down.
"This is the secret room of the Mu family. Youyou and Yaxi follow me first, and the others will follow later."
Mu Long was pale and unsteady due to excessive blood loss. Activating the door had consumed nearly half of his blood, and an ordinary person would have gone into shock long ago.
Mu Yaxi hurried forward to support him, Luo Youyou also supported him from the other side, and the three of them walked into the chaos first.
The others were a little nervous, even Yue Shen Xun ran down to look at this strange door.
The further they went, the more different their perceptions became. Mu Long and Mu Yaxi's vision gradually became clearer, and the things around them became clearer and clearer, but Luo Youyou saw an even greater fog...
