Chapter 2561 Exiles
As she watched the scene play out before her, the Grand Elder felt confused.
The others didn't know much about the blood purity test. In fact, they only knew that the jade could test blood purity, but they understood nothing of the principle behind it.
The Grand Elder, on the other hand, did understand. She had been given the jade long ago by her own father.
This jade, named Blood Stone, was actually very weak, but it could activate the power hidden within the blood. If the hidden blood power was strong, then the stone's coloring would change.
Notably, the Blood Stone could do more than just test the Nine Li race's blood. It could equally test the blood of other races. The arrays arranged for the multiple tests were different and had their own respective colors.
The Grand Elder herself had blood at the top of the eighth grade—almost at the ninth, to be more specific. Once, she had dripped her blood on the Blood Stone, and the stone changed into a deep red hue!
She was her father's first-generation successor, and her blood's purity far surpassed that of other Nine Li members!
Now though, the Blood Stone had turned dark red, but it broke. What could this possibly mean?
"Zen, stay here. I'll be back soon." The Grand Elder took a long, meaningful look at him before reaching out her hand to gently touch the broken stone fragments. In the blink of an eye, all the pieces of Blood Stone fragments immediately collected in her hands.
Whoosh!
With a slight twist of her feminine waist, she quickly turned into a streak of white light, silently retreating off into the distance.
At that moment, one could hear many people discussing with low voices in the square. A quiet mumble rolled over the small crowd.
The Nine Li members weren't foolish though, and they understood Zen's special characteristics. Many warriors watched him incessantly with uneasy expressions on their faces.
"Hey brat! Tell me, how did you break the stone, huh?" Giacomo laughed mockingly.
The Blood Stone's color change could prove that Zen's blood was also at the ninth grade.
In all, only two people had ninth grade blood, and that was including the Grand Elder. It was extremely rare.
"I don't know either," Zen was also confused. He had no logical response.
The Grand Elder walked through the cave for a while before entering another small and narrow cavity. A short while later, she had reached the front of a jade wall.
She stood her ground steadily and c
The same rang true for the other exiles hiding within the bone tower. They had all sealed themselves inside the jade wall and rarely showed up anywhere, if at all.
There was once a time when the Nine Li race was in danger, and an exile had escaped the bone tower, taking immediate action.
Adele remembered that the exile had revealed an incredible power, breaking hundreds of members from the Yellow Emperor race into pieces in the blink of an eye and thus dissolving the Nine Li race's crisis.
In other words, all this meant that her father wasn't actually forbidden from leaving the jade wall... He was just unwilling to do so.
Adele took this matter to heart very seriously, all the time. After all, she had grown up and she still didn't even know what her father looked like.
Never had she expected that her father would leave his precious jade wall just because Zen had broken the Bloody Stone!
She was stunned and stared at her father's strange face. She couldn't believe what was happening.
A bitter smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face. He walked up to touch Adele's fair, soft cheek and said faintly, "It's not that I didn't want to leave the jade wall. As the exiles, we're suffering from Chaos Ancient God's curse at all times. Our only option is to curl up here, in this small, solitary space..."
"Oh..." Adele blinked her eyes. She wasn't sure what to believe. Although her father's appearance came off strange to her, his voice was very familiar.
After all, he was still her father, and he was trapped in this world without any way to escape. It wasn't before long that Adele caved and took her father to see Zen.
