Chapter 44: Chi You's Portrait
After confirming Yang Feng's identity as the Bloodline Saint Son, Prince Beta was very excited. However, he also saw that Yang Feng's current strength was still weak. If the Church were to find out about Yang Feng being a Bloodline Saint Son with his current strength, then Yang Feng would definitely face a disaster of extinction.
Prince Beta didn't ask what Yang Feng's true identity was, those things weren't important, as long as he was the Holy Son of the Blood Clan it was enough. As for other matters, Prince Beta wouldn't bother with so much, he had already handed over his power to Karl and focused on increasing his strength to deal with the Church.
Yang Feng followed behind Prince Karl and Princess Beta, who after exiting the secret room did not head outside but instead carefully pressed many times on the wall outside the secret room, causing a hole to appear in the wall. Then Princess Beta had Karl and Yang Feng follow her as she headed forward.
Below the cave entrance was another long passageway, with a fist-sized pearl on either side of the passage at regular intervals. Yang Feng gazed at these pearls in admiration, thinking that the Blood Clan was indeed wealthy, using such rare treasures as lamps. If they were to be sold, the price would be astronomical!
The end of the passage was a huge cave, which was very bright inside. After entering this cave, Yang Feng felt as if he had returned to the cave under Xijiang Miao Village, because this cave was extremely similar to that one in both size and layout.
To the left of the entrance to the cave was also a place for worship, and on the right side there was also a stone gate, but only two sides were open. Yang Feng saw that inside one of the stone gates was a row of boxes filled with diamonds, jade, agate, and gold bars stacked in the shape of a golden pyramid, such wealth made Yang Feng's eyes dazzle.
On the other side of the stone gate, there were all kinds of heavenly treasures and earthly gems. Human-shaped ginseng and nine-leafed lingzhi mushrooms were piled up in heaps. These things made Yang Feng's eyes shine brightly, because these good things could increase his power. If he could take them, Yang Feng believed that his power would definitely soar!
In the center of the cave, there was also a huge pool of blood, but this pool was much smaller than the one in Xijiang Miao Village, and it did not emit endless heat waves like the one below Xijiang Miao Village, making it difficult for Yang Feng to get close to it.
In this blood pool, there were also waves of heat emanating from it, but not as severe. Therefore, Yang Feng easily followed behind Prince Beta to the side of the blood pool. Upon arriving at the side of the blood pool, Yang Feng discovered that inside the blood pool were thirteen crystal coffins, all of which were blood-red in color. Inside each of these blood crystal coffins lay a person.
Yang Feng was shocked to see the people lying inside the blood crystal coffin, and his heart was filled with shockwaves. What surprised Yang Feng was that the people inside the blood crystal coffin were also black-haired and yellow-skinned! Their appearance not only shocked Yang Feng but also Karl, who looked at the people in the blood crystal coffin and then back at Yang Feng with a puzzled expression.
The only one who wasn't surprised was Prince Beta, because he had already known about this matter. Moreover, Prince Beta was a descendant of the people lying in these thirteen crystal coffins, and one of them was equivalent to Prince Beta's father. Calculating it, the people inside the thirteen crystal coffins were the first generation bloodline, while Prince Beta and his twelve other brothers were the second generation bloodline. However, due to Prince Beta's higher innate talent, he was allowed to enter this place, whereas his twelve other brothers still didn't have the power to enter here until now.
As for Karl and his descendants, they are even less qualified to enter this place. If it weren't for Karl's great merit today, Prince Beta would have committed a serious crime by bringing Karl and Yang Feng here, and would have been severely punished!
"Doesn't it feel strange? Hehe, don't worry, you'll understand in a moment!" Prince Beta smiled and said to Yang Feng.
Yang Feng was indeed very confused, but after hearing Prince Beta's words, he calmed down. He knew that Prince Beta would certainly explain things clearly to him, so he didn't rush and quietly waited on the side.
Prince Beta first paid his respects to the thirteen people lying in the crystal coffin, then took Yang Feng to a place of worship on the left side of the entrance, where it seemed he was going to take Yang Feng to make an offering.
This place of worship is different from the cave below the Xijiang Miao Village. In Xijiang Miao Village, there is a huge rack with ancestral plaques of generations of Chi families on it, while here are only two paintings hanging, and under the paintings is a stone pedestal, on which lies a black leather book!
Yang Feng followed Prince Beta to the sacrificial site, but when Yang Feng came to the front of the stone platform and looked up at the two murals on the stone wall, Yang Feng was stunned again. This time in Yang Feng's heart it was no longer a stormy wave, but a strong tsunami!
What caused Yang Feng's huge reaction were the two paintings on the wall, one of which was three meters high, with a pair of blood-red wings behind it, two sharp fangs in its mouth, and black hair hanging down its back, with an extremely ferocious appearance, needless to say, this was the ancestor of the Blood Clan, Gaijin.
What caused Yang Feng's huge reaction was another portrait. This portrait didn't have anything special, it just painted a man who wasn't too strong but very tall, with black hair, a pair of black eyes, and yellow skin. His appearance couldn't be described as handsome, but it was much better than the ferocious look of that hidden person. There was nothing special about this man, but from his black eyes, he revealed a feeling of dominating the world and looking down on all living things!
However, what brought a violent reaction from Yang Feng was not the aura emanating from the man in the painting, but because this painting also existed in the cave below the Xijiang Miao Village, and Chi Zheng had once told Yang Feng that the man in the painting was actually Chi You, the ancestor of the Jiuli tribe!
Why?!
Yang Feng's heart was screaming, why would Chi You's portrait be here?! What is the relationship between the Blood Clan and Chi You?! One by one, questions began to swirl in Yang Feng's mind, making his spirit extremely flustered!
"Shengzi, what's wrong with you?! Is something uncomfortable?!" Prince Beta was the first to notice Yang Feng's abnormality and hastily asked him.
"Can you tell me who the person in this painting is?!" Yang Feng said, pointing at the painting of Chi You.
"Oh, the person in this painting is someone our great ancestor Gaius followed, called... uh, that pronunciation is quite awkward, I've heard it once before, but can't quite recall how to pronounce it now!" Prince Beta said after a moment's thought.
"Is it called Chi You?" Yang Feng said to King Beta.
"Oh, right, that's the pronunciation! I still remember my old man insisting that I memorize it back then! Hmm, how did you know?!" Prince Beta asked Yang Feng with a surprised expression.
"Because this portrait is also in my home, and it's my mother's ancestor!" Yang Feng said to Prince Beta, Yang Feng felt that there was no need to hide this matter from Prince Beta, and saying it out would be more beneficial to his position here.
As expected, after hearing Yang Feng's words, Prince Beta jumped up from his seat, his eyes wide with a mixture of shock and extreme excitement, and asked, "Are you saying that you have the bloodline of Chi You?! Is this true?!"
Yang Feng nodded lightly after hearing the words of Prince Beta, and Prince Beta saw Yang Feng nodding and suddenly started dancing with joy, shouting loudly, "Haha, no wonder you can become a Holy Son, it turns out that you have the bloodline of Chi You! Haha, finding the bloodline of Chi You seems to be a great achievement! I don't know if I can get a drop of the Ancestor's essence this time?!"
Beta Prince muttered to himself, then completely disregarding Carl who was staring blankly at the side and Yang Feng who didn't understand what Beta Prince meant, he once again walked towards that pool of blood!
