So he simply enjoyed his tea while looking at the moving clouds in the sky as the cherry blossoms slowly fell to the ground.
The warm breeze made the atmosphere serene as his thoughts drifted back to his dream.
‘What was it? I don’t think it was merely a dream, but I don’t have any recollection of it as well. And my cultivation…’
There were far too many questions with little to no answers to them.
[Do you mind telling me what is happening now? Maybe I can help you with it.]
‘…I suspect it’s related to my bloodline.’
[Ok then I can’t help you.]
Shen Yuan felt his eyebrow twitching. ‘Useless.’
[Your bloodline is already something that I have never seen, how do you suppose I deal with it? It already made m-]
Yue Lan abruptly stopped as she felt a malevolent presence forming inside Shen Yuan’s sea of consciousness.
‘Hmm? What did my bloodline do?’
Yue Lan quickly took back her words, not wanting to face that abomination anytime soon.
[…Your bloodline already made you so strong, what can I even do about it.]
Shen Yuan nodded his head, ‘True, I need to find out more about this bloodline, so far it has the ability to devour others’ talent and refine them before giving them to me, but I have not been able to gain any bloodline till now.’
[Why don’t you try to devour someone with a bloodline next time to see what reaction your bloodline will have?]
Shen Yuan finished tea and placed the cup on the table before rubbing his chin softly, ‘That’s doable, I can try and see what reaction my bloodline will have at that point.’
[Why don’t you name your bloodline something? We can’t keep referring to it as your bloodline or other things.]
‘That’s a good idea, why don’t you suggest a name.’ Shen Yuan agreed with her and said.
[Haha, you asked the right person why don’t you use—]
Yue Lan stopped talking as she felt her eye twitching, the presence of that abomination seemed to be getting strong again.
[But I can’t possibly do that, it’s your bloodline so you should name it. It wouldn’t be right of me to name it.]
Shen Yuan’s voice turned suspicious, he asked, ‘Why are you changing your tune so much? Are you hiding something from me?’
[No, anyways do you have a name in mind?]
‘Hmm let’s see, since it has devouring ability and it can grant me the unique abilities of those it devoured, why don’t I name it Heaven Defying God Suppressing Chaos Devouring Primal Bloodline?’ Shen Yuan’s eyes lit up as he suggested the name.
Yue Lan felt her eyes twitching, [Why don’t you add a few more sentences to that name, huh?]
“Hmm? Those were the usual names of strong bloodlines in my past life, well now that you say it, it’s indeed a mouthful. Let’s go with Devouring Fiend Celestial Bloodline. Sounds cool as well as highlights its devouring capabilities.” He finished saying as he waited for her to speak.
Yue Lan silently muttered to herself, ‘It really is a fiendish bloodline, hmph!’
[Yes, it’s a fitting name definitely.]
Shen Yuan nodded his head proudly, “My naming sense is just peak.”
[Yes yes, sure.]
Yue Lan changed the topic as she commented,
[Looks like chatting with Wan Ling has lightened your mood. Before this, you were all gloomy due to your dream.]
Shen Yuan nodded, ‘True, I was focusing too much on my dream before this. Now that my mind has been cleared up, I should go and look at my smithy.’
The Qi around Wan Ling also began to subside as she slowly opened her eyes.
Shen Yuan turned his head to see her; her foundation had already stabilized, and she could start increasing her cultivation base anytime now.
“Thank you for this tea, Senior Brother.” She stood up and bowed in thanks to him.
Shen Yuan accepted the bow with a smile, “Sit down now, you don’t need to be so polite with me.”
Wan Ling sat down, “What was that tea? I have never tasted anything like that.”
Shen Yuan looked at her in amusement, “Have you not tasted the honey that we bought from the Mystique Realm?”
“Ah, that…” Wan Ling’s face turned slightly red in embarrassment, “I don’t have a special physique or anything, so I was thinking of giving it to my little sister to strengthen her constitution in the future.”
Shen Yuan looked at her with warm eyes, “So you have a sister as well, but I remember I gave you multiple portions of that; you could have at least used one of them.”
Wan Ling lowered her head further, “I was going to give the honey to my clan when I went back.”
Shen Yuan exhaled a long sigh, took out two portions of honey-filled cups from his inventory and gave one to her, “Here, taste it. Let me know how it is.”
Wan Ling raised her head as she smelled the delicious aroma spreading all around her; she salivated a little as her nose tingled with sweetness.
“Bu-but it’s yours, how can I take something so precious?” She hurriedly shook her head and refused.
Shen Yuan pushed the honey-filled cup into her hands and spoke with a laugh, “No need to worry, I have a lot of it, and I will have more of it in the future.”
Wan Ling looked at the honey in her hands with struggling eyes; she couldn’t make up her mind whether to eat it or not.
Shen Yuan looked at her with gentle eyes and placed a hand on her head and softly patted her, “Go ahead and eat it. No need to overthink something so simple.”
Wan Ling let go of her struggle and softly nodded her head; she took out a spoon from her spatial ring and scooped a bit of honey from her cup.
Shen Yuan nodded his head with a smile and raised his cup before directly drinking the honey from it.
[How crass.]
‘Does she have any special physique or bloodline?’ Shen Yuan ignored her remark and asked.
[None. She has neither bloodline nor physique, but her talent in the sword is really strong. She is nearing First Level Sword Intent already. She will probably comprehend it as soon as she reaches the Origin Core Creation Realm.] ƒгeewёbnovel.com
‘Oh, not bad at all. Maybe I should give her some pointers in the way of the sword,’ he thought.
[Sure, that will be good, but isn’t it better if Huo Rong or Bing Rong trained their disciples?]
‘There was a reason I had them accept these guys as their disciples; I already have plans for them.’
[If you say so.]
Yue Lan got silent after that.
Wan Ling soon finished eating her share of the honey as she looked at Shen Yuan in confusion.
“That… was underwhelming, nothing happened to me?” She tilted her head in confusion.
Shen Yuan stood up and explained, “That’s because you don’t have a bloodline or physique for it to focus on; it will instead strengthen your constitution over time and help to strengthen your Dao Foundation.”
