Chapter 370 - Divine Bloodline Awakening
Chapter 370: Chapter 370 – Divine Bloodline Awakening
The rune flashed, and as Chen Heng watched on, a wave of divine energy appeared.
In front of him, the silent space seemed to transform.
Tiny particles appeared before him, some of which were active and some of which were dormant.
Looking at those particles, Chen Heng came to an understanding.
These were the micro-particles that had always existed in the world, but could not be directly observed.
The magic skills that Sorcerers used all used these particles.
Below these particles were shadows.
Of course, these were not true shadows, but shadows of space, representing the thin parts of space.
“This feeling…” Chen Heng thought to himself.
Under his current state, he could see many things that he had not been able to in the past.
No matter if it was the micro-particles or the shadows in space, he could see them all clearly.
Moreover, Chen Heng could tell that this was not his limit.
As his strength grew, his abilities would develop as well.
Following this, he walked to another side of the laboratory, where there was a mirror.
Through the mirror, Chen Heng could see that his changes were not too big.
However, looking closely, there were some slight changes.
His figure was just as tall and straight, and looked quite valiant and mighty.
His appearance was also quite handsome and flawless, and he had a unique air to him that made anyone instinctively feel favourable towards him.
Of course, what Chen Heng focused on was the golden colour within his eyes.
After his source energy had returned and he had awakened his divine bloodline, his eyes had become somewhat golden.
And now, this change was even more evident.
Chen Heng could tell that there were even bigger changes within him.
After exiting from this status, the rune became dim and no longer glow.
This made Chen Heng think to himself.
“Does each rune have its own ability?” Chen Heng wondered.
The changes in his body were from the awakening of his Divine Bloodline, and it seemed that every rune had its own unique ability.
These abilities originated from his bloodline, as well as the god that he was descended from.
Right now, Chen Heng had three runes.
It was a pity that only one of them was complete, but even so, this was enough.
Following this, Chen Heng walked out of his laboratory.
Smelling the fresh air from outside, Chen Heng felt much more relaxed.
Within the laboratory, there was also a record of how long he had been gone for.
Based on that instrument, he had been gone for three months.
This was not too bad—after all, he had spent roughly 30 years in the Curse Land.
Back when he had first arrived at that world, he could sense that the flow of time there was quite different there, which was why he had stayed there for so long.
Soon, Chen Heng had found that there had been some changes in the Hatim Territory in those three months.
“Her Highness Mary is about to visit?” Chen Heng found out about this after gathering his subordinates.
“Yes, my lord.” Herdosiri and Lamu looked at each other before nodding and saying, “We received news of this two days ago, and she will arrive in half a month.”
“Half a month?” Chen Heng frowned, “What’s the rush?”
Going from Kaki to the Hatim Territory was not so quick.
For them to arrive within half a month, this was no ordinary speed.
What urgent matters did this Princess Mary have with him?
“Apart from this, we also received many letters from other rulers, including my father…” Jenri also spoke, “Those letters are in your room, my lord.”
“I understand.” Chen Heng calmly nodded, “Bring them over.”
Hearing this, JEnri nodded, and someone went to bring them over.
Soon, Chen Heng opened the letters and read through them before frowning.
These letters were from the nobles with whom Chen Heng had a good relationship with.
The contents of the letters were quite simple, and told him about the changes in the Kaki City.
Based on what these people were saying, the King of the Kalo Kingdom, Karim, had executed many nobles, and had become much more violent.
Princess Mary suddenly leaving also seemed to be related to this.
Some people hinted that they hoped that Chen Heng would use his forces to chase Princess Mary away, so as to avoid anything bad.
Chen Heng’s uncle, Viscount Siriv, was one of them.
“Just what happened?” Chen Heng frowned, feeling quite confused.
Mary was the Princess of the Kalo Kingdom, and was one of Karim’s most capable daughters.
What had happened all of a sudden?
Moreover, Chen Heng had met Karim a few years ago.
Even though he did not seem incredibly friendly and gentle, he at least seemed quite reasonable.
Why did he suddenly become like this?
Standing there, Chen Heng frowned, and felt that something was off.
“My lord…” By the side, Herdosiri looked at Chen Heng as he asked hesitantly, “What should we do?”
They had not seen the contents of the ltters, but as important members of the Hatim Territory, they had heard some things.
As such, they had investigated Princess Mary’s sudden visit.
Sitting in his seat, Chen Heng did not give an answer, and just tapped on his seat as he thought to himself.
Only after a while did he make a decision. He looked at Herdosiri and Lamu as he said, “Go and prepare. Assemble the army and head to the Hatim Territory’s border. We will wait for Her Highness Mary there.”
Hearing this, hha nd Lamu did not hesitate and got up to leave.
“Remember to come over before you leave.” Chen Heng said.
“Yes.” Herdosiri and Lamu felt a bit confused, but they still respectfully nodded.
Followignt his, the two of them left, as did others, leaving behind Chen Heng and Jenri.
“My lord, I don’t understand…” Looking at Chen Heng sitting in the main seat, Jenri hesitated before saying, “This matter about Her Highness Mary is quite troublesome…”
As Siriv’s child, he knew more than others.
Perhaps Siriv had also sent a letter to him.
Chen Heng was not surprised about this.
“IT is indeed quite troublesome.” Chen Heng nodded, “Based on what your father said, Her Highenss Mary has come to my territory to avoid danger.”
This revealed a big problem.
Why would a princess have to seek refuge within her own kingdom?
Moreover, why was she coming to Chen Heng’s territory?
Over the years, Chen Heng had stayed in contact with Mary, and their relationship was alright.
However, she had never visited before.
Moreover, there were many nobles with a good relationship with Princess Mary, and this included people like Siriv.
Why did she not go to others’ territoires, and chose Chen Heng’s one?
Was it that there was no one else who could protect her, which was why she had made this decision?
However, in the end, Chen Heng was quite calm.
Strength was the source of everything.
No matter what was happening, it was not a big deal.
Chen Heng had the confidence to deal with it all.
Moreover, within this danger, there were also opportunities.
Jenri did not know about any of this, but looking at Chen Heng’s calm demanour, he also felt much more reassured.
Soon, Jenri also left to attend to his duties.
Foollowing this, two tall figures walked in again—it was Herdosiri and Lamu.
“MY lord.”
“Take a seat.” Chen Heng smiled and motioned for them to sit, before saying softly, “The two of you have followed me for a long time.
“You began to follow me since we were escaping from the Malido Kingdom, and it has been many years since then.”
“Yes.” The two of them nodded.
Following this, they were stunned.
As fhtey watched on, Chen Heng’s appearance began to change, and a pressure that came from his bloodline appeared.
In that moment, the feeling that Chen Heng gave them was incredibly terrifying, as if he was a high and mighty god.
His eyes became golden colour as he smiled and looked at them.
“T-This is…” Sensing the changes in Chen Heng’s body, the two of them trembled and felt dumbfounded.
In order not to affect others, Chen Heng had covered this up.
It was just like the difference between humans and ants; humans could accidentally kill many ants with a single step, and this was the case for Chen Heng and normal humans now.
That was the gap between Chen Heng and ordinary people now.
If it was a normal person, they would not be able to even withstand his aura, and would be slowly crushed to death.
As such, Chen Heng had locked his aura to prevent this.
In front of Herdosiri and Lamu, he removed his restraints and unleashed his aura.
The two of them trembled and felt as if their blood and frozen.
Chen Heng did not move at all, and just by sitting there and looking at them, he gave them immense pressure.
Only after a while did they come to their senses.
Standing there and looking at Chen Heng, they realised something and looked delighted.
“My lord, you…”
They thought of the records of the legends, and looking at Chen Heng’s appearance, they felt incredibly excited.
