Chapter 1994 A Pleasant Bloodline
Chapter 1994 A Pleasant Bloodline
The method that Lin Mu had used to detect the bloodline within Meihua's body was rather simple. But it was still not something that anyone could do. One needed to have a strong bloodline themselves and also have decent control over it to use this method.
What Lin Mu had done was to basically use the Great Slumber Bear Bloodline and let its aura trigger the hidden bloodline within Meihua. The Bloodline within Meihua's body would take the foreign bloodline aura as a threat and would have no choice but to actively resist it. Of course, there was no real threat, as Lin Mu was fully in control of this aura. But the hidden bloodline did not know that.
It would simply consider that its owner was under threat and needed to be protected. And such effect would only happen when the bloodline could tell the foreign bloodline was indeed strong enough to threaten its existence. This was a simple method that one could use to trigger bloodlines that were strong on their own.
Since the Morning Glory clan had already used bloodline testing crystals and didn't get any results, Lin Mu had already known other methods of checking the bloodline wouldn't work. Neither would the method he had used to check the bloodline of Ashy work, as that was more optimized for beasts.
Not to mention, the methods used for checking beast bloodlines could actually harm humans, thus one needed to be careful. Especially in the case of a young girl like Meihua. Even if she had become a Nascent Soul realm cultivator, that didn't mean that she had the mentality to endure the weight of the technique being used on her.
As such, Lin Mu used the only other method he was sure would work, while also being safer.
Though on the surface, it looked quite oppressive at the start.
But no one knew that this was the least of it and that Meihua was about to give them a bigger shock than what Lin Mu had given them.
~HUMM~
Everyone in the hall watched as a bright pink glow radiated from Meihua as a presence rose from her.
It was about two meters tall and took the shape of a feminine figure with a large flower bud on her head. ~WHOOSH~
And then a moment later, a pleasant feeling spread from the figure's body. It was like the warmth of the spring and filled the entire hall, making everyone feel comfortable.
"A bloodline figure…" The elders watching couldn't help but mutter.
Of course, they had no idea what bloodline figure this was, but just its appearance alone was enough to confirm the fact that Meihua had a bloodline.
If Lin Mu's Great Slumber Bear's bloodline aura had an oppressive aura that pressured all that were within its range; then Meihua's Bloodline figure was the complete opposite.
It radiated a welcome warmth that made everyone feel good. The contrast was astounding, but what was even more surprising was the fact that even though this bloodline figure was not fully awakened, it was still able to resist the aura of the Great Slumber Bear.
"It certainly is not simple." Lin Mu said with a slight smile.
On the other hand, Princess Feng Lan and Clan head Guang San were awestruck by their child's hidden bloodline.
They didn't expect that it would be like this. Even if they didn't know what bloodline this was, they had enough experience to tell that it was not weak at all.
~shua~
"I guess that should be enough." Lin Mu said and withdrew all his aura and contained his bloodline.
The figure of the Great Slumber Bear disappeared and the red aura was absorbed back into his body.
This caused the bloodline figure of Meihua to change as well. It looked around with its pink glowing eyes before gazing at its owner. On its featureless face, a pink smile appeared before it hugged Meihua and returned to her body.
~shua~
And with that, silence returned to the hall.
Though it was short lived as soon the elders erupted in an uproar.
"What bloodline was that?!"
"No bloodline like that has ever appeared in the Morning Glory Clan before."
"Is it from the Imperial Family, then?"
"Silence!" Clan Head Guang San stated firmly, causing everyone to shut up. Seeing that everyone had calmed down, the man looked at Lin Mu and asked, "Do you know what bloodline that was?" "I don't yet. But I'll be able to figure it out." Lin Mu replied, causing the man to narrow his brows.
But he could read between the lines and knew it was a matter of discreteness.
"Everyone is to leave the hall, now!" Guang San declared.
"Yes, clan head!" The elders and other members scrambled to leave the hall.
They didn't want to be punished for the past mistakes, as well as didn't wish to infuriate the clan head more. The higher elders could also tell that this was a sensitive matter and shouldn't be revealed easily. Even if everyone was from the clan, there was no telling if information could still leak.
After all, the security breach was still not fixed and they didn't know how the clan berried had developed a hole.
If there really was a spy or other bad faith actor wishing ill on the clan, it was best to be cautious.
~CREAK~
The doors of the hall closed, and all the elders had now left, leaving behind the Clan head, Princess Feng Lan, and the sleeping Meihua.
The little girl had fallen asleep after her bloodline figure was triggered. It was still tiring for her body, as such, it was normal for her to pass out from it.
"So what is it that you discovered, Daoist Mu Lin?" Guang San asked, while Princess Feng Lan also stared at him, wanting to know the answer.
Lin Mu had already conversed with Xukong in his mind and had obtained the answer.
"I've figured the bloodline out… Meihua has no normal bloodline… She has a Celestial Bloodline!" Lin Mu revealed, stunning the couple.
