Chapter 1996 A Surprising Intervention
Lin Mu's answer spilled cold water on the heart of Princess Feng Lan and Clan Head Guang San.
"There is also the fact that we don't know when the bloodline will awaken. It will awaken in stages, and every time it does, Meihua's power will grow.
If she does not have a suitable cultivation technique that would allow her to control the power, she might even end up harming herself." Lin Mu explained further. "If it's a celestial bloodline, then I don't know if there would be any technique suitable for her in the Rust Sky world." Clan head Guang San tried to keep a cold head and think rationally.
"Father… I'll ask father! I'm sure he'll have some option." Princess Feng Lan said with hope. "Even if he doesn't have it, the Immortal Court can possibly help us." She added.
"That is indeed a good option." Lin Mu nodded his head. "Even the Immortal Court will be helpless in this case." A voice was suddenly heard, startling those in the hall.
"Who was that?" Guang San looked around with wariness.
He was sure that there was no one else in the hall, other than Lin Mu, Meihua, Feng Lan, and him. The arrays were active as well and would alert him if there was anyone that had secretly entered the place.
But there was certainly no one here.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot to mention, the voice that he had heard was not of anyone that he knew in the clan.
"Saintess…" Lin Mu though, showed an expression of surprise but his words showed awareness.
"You know whose voice that is?" Princess Feng Lan asked.
"Indeed." Lin Mu said before looking to the back.
The couple followed his gaze and saw a person materialize there. It was a woman dressed in long robes that covered most of her body and wore a veil that hid her face. Despite all that though, a mesmerizing feeling could be sensed coming from her that made it hard to look away.
"How did you enter?" Guang San was still wary of the woman.
After all, a stranger had managed to enter the main hall of his clan without anyone knowing. Not to mention, this person had also heard all of their conversations earlier. Someone with such capability was certainly not simple and was strong.
'I can't sense the cultivation base of the woman either.' Guang San silently gulped.
In fact, his immortal sense couldn't even perceive the woman in the first place. It was as if she wasn't there and his immortal sense only felt air.
"I didn't expect you to show yourself in front of others, Saintess." Lin Mu said with genuine surprise.
"I normally wouldn't… but this is a special case." The Saintess said and walked towards them.
Her every step was crisp and held an authority that was hard to comprehend.
Princess Feng Lan who watched her, couldn't help but feel a regal aura coming from the woman. 'This feeling… even Father does not have it.' Feng Lan had lived in the Imperial Palace most of her life and knew how the life of a ruler was. Such a regal aura was something only an emperor could have. Her father had it too, but compared to the woman in front of her, it was but a tiny ember trying to outshine the sun.
The Saintess finally came to a stop in front of Princess Feng Lan, who was still holding the sleeping Meihua in her arms.
"Is it due to Meihua?" Lin Mu asked, seeing that the Saintess showed interest in the child.
"Yes." The Saintess replied. "I didn't expect to see someone with the Plum Heaven Bloodline… Especially not here." She added with some doubt.
"You know of it too, Saintess?" Lin Mu inquired.
"I do. It is one of the thirty six celestial bloodlines that only have singular inheritor every era." The Saintess revealed. "Among them, the Plum Heaven Bloodline is a bit peculiar since it has no rhyme or reason in its appearance. It can randomly appear in anyone." Hearing her words, the couple were surprised. Even Lin Mu was intrigued, as Xukong had said something different.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Senior Xukong said that the Plum Heaven Bloodline appears in those fated with the spring Dao.' Lin Mu thought to himself. Maybe it was the difference in importance between Xukong and the Saintess that the value of the bloodline was changed.
To Xukong, it was just a random bloodline that didn't matter much. He had seen thousands of them and didn't care much, as they were the same to him in the end. But to the Saintess, someone with a Celestial Bloodline was still important.
"C-can you tell us more?" Princess Feng Lan requested.
She understood that the woman in front of them was someone unfathomable. One didn't even need to be a cultivator to tell that, as the mere presence of the woman was impressive enough to entrance all those that looked at her.
"Very well." The Saintess was surprisingly accommodating today. Normally she wouldn't even appear in front of others and only did so for Lin Mu. But today, she willingly showed her presence to new people.
"The Plum Heaven Bloodline originates from the Immortal Plums of strength that grew in the garden of the deities. Similar to the Peaches of immorality, these were exclusive to the deities, but instead of providing immortality, they provided great strength.
But a great being stole them and spread their seeds across the world.
Of course, growing an Immortal Plum tree isn't as easy as simply planting the seeds. It needs many more conditions to grow. But despite all those odds, there was one such seed that managed to sprout.
The world it sprouted in flourished and began to be known as the Plum Heaven.
Of course, that tree was no longer an Immortal Plum tree, but became an entirely new being. Those who ate its plums would gain the Plum Heaven Bloodline and become its heirs. This was all in the ancient times though. The Plum Heaven no longer exists and neither does the tree. The bloodline now appears randomly throughout the universe." The Saintess explained in detail.
