1299 Cup of Blood

"Y-Your Majesty… just to confirm, you want me to drink your blood…?" Liang Qinru asked him in a nervous voice.

Anyone would be hesitant if they are suddenly told to drink a cup of blood, especially when the blood belonged to a complete stranger.

"That's right." Yuan nodded, confirming her worries.

Liang Qinru swallowed nervously as she stared at the cup of blood in silence.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and accept His Majesty's generous offering!" Liang Xiaosheng urged her to accept the cup.

And he said to her through divine sense, 'The blood of a Dragon Emperor is unfathomably pure! Our blood are no different than muddy water in comparison! If you consume his blood, there's a really good chance that your bloodline will improve! Even if it doesn't, his blood will definitely benefit you in many other ways!'

'If I can get rid of him just by drinking some blood, then…' Liang Qinru thought to herself.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After resolving herself, Liang Qinru accepted the cup of blood and held it against her soft lips.

A deep breath later, Liang Qinru tilted the cup and swallowed a mouthful of the blood.

"??!?!?!?!?!?!?"

Liang Qinru, who had her eyes closed, suddenly snapped them open, her pupils dilated with shock.

Liang Xiaosheng noticed the look on her face and wondered what caused her to make such a surprised face.

'What in heavens' name is this flavor? Why is it so delicious?' Liang Qinru exclaimed within her thoughts, her senses overwhelmed by the unprecedented gustatory delight. It was as if she had never experienced anything so delectable, akin to a starved soul savoring the most sumptuous of feasts for the very first time.

And without any hesitation, she went for another mouthful.

In the following moment, her body visibly trembled under the onslaught of the intense sensation coursing through her mouth and throat.

After swallowing her third mouthful of blood, Liang Qinru could feel her entire being burning up, almost as though her blood was boiling. Though, she was too absorbed in the taste of Yuan's blood to notice the change in her body.

However, as an observer, Liang Xiaosheng noticed her complexion turning red, looking as though she was getting extremely drunk, not to mention her europhic look.

It was only when she inevitably emptied the cup that Liang Qinru snapped back into sense.

Clang~!

Liang Qinru suddenly dropped the cup in her hands and fell to her knees.

"What is happening?! My body is burning! My breath— I can't breathe!" Liang QInru began panicking.

"Calm yourself," Yuan said. "That sensation is simply your bloodline undergoing a profound transformation."

After all, he had experienced the same sensation during his bloodline's awakening.

Upon hearing his words, Liang Qinru's panic subsided, and she gradually realized that, despite the fiery sensation coursing through her body, she was not in any actual pain but rather experiencing only mild discomfort.

"What are you doing?! Hurry up and cultivate!" Liang Xiaosheng suddenly reminded her.

Liang Qinru immediately positioned herself in the lotus position and began cultivating. However, she wasn't cultivating to increase her cultivation. Instead, she was focused on the change occurring within her body and trying to maximize its effects.

Yuan then said, "This will probably take a while. Let's go outside to avoid disturbing her."

After exiting the room, Liang Xiaosheng immediately lowered his head and bowed to Yuan, "Thank you, Your Majesty… Words cannot express my grat.i.tude to you, so if you need—"

Yuan raised a hand and interrupted, "Don't worry about it. And seeing how everything worked out properly, I shall take my leave now."

"Huh? You're leaving already? But Qinru still hasn't thanked you yet! I'm sure she'll finish soon, too!"

"Unfortunately, I still have a lot of work to do. Tell her to save her grat.i.tude until our next meeting. I'm sure we'll meet again, too." Yuan said, refusing to stay there any longer.

Liang Xiaosheng wanted Yuan to stay a little longer, but he also didn't want to be too bothersome, so he had no choice but to nod his head.

"Then at least let me show you the way out."

ƈοm

Yuan shook his head and said, "Someone needs to stay here to make sure she's not disturbed. We wouldn't want another spiritual energy outburst to happen to her, right? Then I'll take my leave now."

Without letting Liang Xiaosheng say another word, Yuan turned around and walked away, quickly disappearing from Liang Xiaosheng's sight.

Liang Xiaosheng made sure to bow to Yuan as he walked away

—staying that way even long after he was gone.

Liang Qinru would not come out of the room for many hours, nine hours to be exact. Liang Xiaosheng guarded her room the entire time, making sure n.o.body could disturb her.

After emerging from the room, Liang Qinru's foremost desire was to express her heartfelt grat.i.tude to the Dragon Emperor. However, to her dismay, she was told that he had left long ago.

"His Majesty departed shortly after you commenced your cultivation," Liang Xiaosheng relayed. "He also instructed me to convey a message to you: save your grat.i.tude until your next meeting."

"Our next meeting…?" Liang Qinru muttered, her face suddenly turning red.

"Anyways, how do you feel?" Liang Xiaosheng inquired about her condition a moment later.

Liang Qinru clenched her fists and muttered, "My body is overflowing with strength even though my cultivation hasn't recovered a bit. I don't know how much my bloodline has improved, but I can say with certainty that I am currently stronger than I was before my spiritual energy outburst despite having a lower cultivation."

"T-That powerful?" Liang Xiaosheng swallowed nervously after hearing such outrageous claims.

"In fact, I can still feel my bloodline getting stronger as we speak. This is simply incomprehensible…" Liang Qinru sighed, feeling a sense of awe.

She looked at Liang Xiaosheng and asked, "By the way, His Majesty—what was his name?"

"Huh?" Liang Xiaosheng made a weird face upon hearing her question, as it made him realize that he never asked for a name.
