Chapter 2007: Reforging Blood Vessels
“According to ancient texts, juniors of the clans have spent at least seven days, some even several months, to obtain the paramount inheritance.”
“Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty!” The elder smiled obsequiously. He was a bit apprehensive because he had given His Fourth Highness the cold-shoulder earlier.
Once this most honorable Fourth Highness came out after assimilating the demon emperor’s blood inheritance. He would become the strongest and preeminent person in the entire Rong Clan!
He simply couldn’t imagine the success this Fourth Highness, who had just returned to the clan, would achieve in the future.
The Ultramarine Province Emperor Rong Yuan was especially ecstatic.
After more than a millenium, his fourth son had become the only person in the Rong Clan who could obtain the demon emperor’s blood inheritance.
How could he not be thrilled and gratified?
On the other hand, Duan Yue, who was inside the inner hall, felt as if he was getting immolated by a raging fire. It was unspeakably… painful!
He had been sucked into the transparent inheritance sealing sphere, and he mustered up all his internal energy to resist the heat that was boring into his body.
A scarlet glow seeped deep into the area between his brows.
Duan Yue abruptly opened his eyes and yelled uncontrollably.
D*mmit, this was too fr*ckin’ painful!
Was this d*mned inheritance trying to tear open his conscious pool?
At this moment, only he could understand his own pain. It felt as if his conscious pool was about to evaporate from the heat waves. The billowing heat waves plunged his whole divine conscious apparition into unbearable agony.
Duan Yue suddenly held his right arm tightly with his left hand.
When he looked down, he saw a particularly distinct red streak of blood inching up his left wrist. It was as if it was forging all the meridians in his body in fire. This pain of getting his blood vessels reforged would truly be unforgettable!
D*mmit!*
He did not need this kind of inheritance, okay.
Ow, ow, ow! He was gonna die of the pain! Duan Yue felt like a trapped beast locked up tightly in that inheritance sealing sphere. He was in an extremely passive and helpless state while accepting this kind of inheritance.
“Ah!!” A harsh cry shot through the roof of the Ultramarine Province’s imperial ancestral temple.
Outside the imperial ancestral temple, the crown prince, Rong Li, had an overcast expression. He lowered his eyes to conceal the abnormal look in his gaze.
He really didn’t expect that his father’s illegitimate son actually had the good luck to catch the fancy of the demon emperor’s inheritance. It hadn’t been long since he entered the palace, and yet he had easily obtained an inheritance!
Rong Li shut his eyes. By the time he turned to the emperor again, he had already recovered his soothing smile. “Imperial Father, the fact that Fourth Brother had such a fortuitous encounter is enough to prove that he is someone who carries great fortune.”
Rong Yuan was still beside himself in rapture, and he quickly nodded when he heard the crown prince’s words. “Correct. According to the rules, Old Fourth will move to Taiji Palace!”
What?
Rong Li was caught off guard by his father’s declaration, and he looked up, dumbfounded. “Rather, you don’t plan to have Fourth Brother move out into his own estate?”
All these years, which adult prince besides the crown prince of the Eastern Palace could continue living inside the palace?
A faint sense of crisis sprouted in the crown prince’s heart.
The emperor shook his head. “Old Fourth has obtained the demon emperor’s blood inheritance, so he is naturally unlike other people.”
“Come, relay Our decree.”
Rong Li silently shut his mouth and lowered his eyes when he heard his imperial father’s jubilant voice.
He silently curled his fingers into fists and clenched tightly.
It was only after feeling a twinge of pain that Rong Li loosened his grip.
