245: The younger sister only feels sorry for her brother

Honestly, Chen De wasn't interested in such a soft touch.

So, instinctively, Chen De wanted to pull his hand away.

But then he thought about it again, and considering an actor's basic professionalism, he let her be.

Then, Xiao Shao leaned her face against Chen De's shoulder and softly said, "Brother has been out on an adventure for so long, he hasn't come to see me in ages."

She then held Chen De's arm, consciously and unconsciously moving it towards a certain place, "Look at me, I'm all wet, aren't I?"

What kind of tiger-wolf words were those?

Although Chen De was somewhat prepared, he was ultimately a gentleman; he simply couldn't respond to such a topic that corrupted propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame.

However, Chen De had an even better solution.

That was to divert the trouble!

Just as Chen De was about to stir up trouble with his other sister, Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying already jumped out herself.

She also grabbed Chen De's arm with one hand, "Xiao Shao, what do you mean by this?

Brother already promised me that he would spend tonight with me.

What are you trying to do by coming out now? Don't think I'll listen to you just because you're my older sister."

Xiao Shao wasn't happy to hear that. What's yours and mine? You say tonight is yours, so it's yours? I won't have it!

So, upon hearing Xiao Ying's words, Xiao Shao slowly lowered her head and said, feeling wronged, "Is that so? I didn't know Brother had already made plans with Ying'er just now. This is my fault as a younger sister.

After all, Ying'er is Brother's biological sister; I'm just a cousin.

Since Brother has already made plans with Ying'er, how can I make Brother difficult?

Unlike some people who insist on making Brother choose, I only feel heartache for geigei!"

As she spoke, she cast a pitiful, intentional, yet unintentional glance at Xiao Ying.

Xiao Ying was instantly furious at Xiao Shao's demeanor; it seemed to turn into her fault no matter what.

She could act spoiled too!

But she couldn't act spoiled to this extent.

Holding Chen De's arm, she said, "I don't care, Brother promised he would spend tonight with me, so don't even think about it."

After saying that, the two girls stared intently at each other, in a tit-for-tat confrontation.

At this moment, Xiao Ying spoke, "How about we let Brother choose who he wants to spend tonight with?

Whoever loses isn't allowed to throw a tantrum, how about that?"

Suddenly, the conflict was inexplicably drawn to Chen De.

Xiao Shao's eyes flickered, as if she was somewhat moved; she also wanted to see who Chen De would choose.

However, directly agreeing to Xiao Ying's proposal didn't fit her persona.

Although she really wanted to be in character now, she still couldn't let her image in Brother's eyes collapse.

So, she lowered her head and remained silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

But Chen De could feel that both of their attentions were now entirely focused on him.

Chen De took this matter very seriously, so he pondered for a while.

He tentatively asked, "How about, the three of us together?"

As soon as these words came out, both sisters' faces turned bright red; one said "Brother is annoying," and the other said "Brother is a big pervert."

However, in both of their eyes, there was a hint of eagerness.

The three of them together? Just thinking about it was a bit stimulating.

She also looked at Brother's body, wondering if they would break him?

At this moment, the Bloodline Ceremony below also began.

Chen De quickly spoke, temporarily appeasing them, "Look quickly, the Bloodline Ceremony is about to begin."

Upon hearing this, the two girls finally suppressed their excited hearts, forcing themselves to look down.

However, in their minds, those images still couldn't stop appearing…

The more they thought, the redder their faces became, as if blood was about to seep through.

Chen De no longer paid attention to the two red apples beside him, but instead looked at the Bloodline Ceremony below.

Bloodline cultivation methods have always been a very interesting thing.

In the Four Profound Heavens, there were actually such bloodline cultivation methods, but they were very rare.

The world-level of the Four Profound Heavens was extremely high, which also led to the average talent of all martial artists being very strong.

For example, the bloodlines inherited by the descendants of the Heavenly Imperial Realm could not give them much advantage.

For example, the Taiyin Body Chen De encountered earlier was much stronger than any so-called Heavenly Imperial Realm bloodline.

If they only relied on the bloodline brought by Heavenly Imperial Realm experts, it would at most put their talent at a medium or upper-medium level.

So, this simple bloodline power, brought about by breaking through the Heavenly Imperial Realm, Void Union Realm, and Myriad Transformation Realm, could only serve as a slight embellishment.

Furthermore, in the Four Profound Heavens, there were neither too many nor too few Heavenly Imperial Realm experts.

Just their Tianqing Dao alone currently had at least six or more.

It could be said that, in a sense, Heavenly Imperial Realm bloodlines were almost everywhere.

Therefore, in the Four Profound Heavens, few people actively developed cultivation methods in this area.

Only demon beasts, who primarily relied on bloodlines to grow, or those with extremely powerful bloodlines or physiques inherited from their ancestors, would actively develop these things.

Ordinary Heavenly Imperial Realm experts simply had no need for it.

Below the Heavenly Imperial Realm, the Void Union Realm and Myriad Transformation Realm, it was even less necessary.

But it was different on the Sky Dome Continent; Heavenly Imperial Realm level existences here were considered rare species.

Coupled with generally low talent, it was difficult for extremely powerful talents to be born naturally.

So, in such a small world, the bloodline of ordinary Heavenly Imperial Realm experts could offer many advantages.

Below Chen De and the others was the ritual platform.

The ritual platform was an ancient-looking stone platform, intricately carved with dense, complex, and exotic patterns.

This stone platform was directly at the foot of the statue, more like a stone slab that the statue was stepping on.

Then, Xiao Miao's father, the Clan Head of the Xiao Clan—Xiao Dou, made his appearance!

He appeared in the arena with an imposing presence, and countless phenomena changed with Xiao Dou's movements.

Behind him, the phantom of the Purple Firmament Seven Stars emerged.

As the Clan Head of the Xiao Clan, the strongest among the Eight Clans.

Xiao Dou's cultivation was at the Piming Realm Ninth Level, and the "Purple Firmament Seven Stars Mixed Method" he practiced had long since reached perfection, illuminating the Seven Stars.

Among the Eight Clans, only Ming Ya, the Clan Head of the Ming Clan, could rival Xiao Dou in cultivation, but he was still slightly inferior in strength.

After Xiao Dou appeared, everyone in the arena, standing, sitting, or lying down.

They all stood up and respectfully saluted, "Greetings, Clan Head!"

Xiao Dou nodded, then, without wasting any more time, announced the official start of the Bloodline Ceremony.

As the ceremony began, a group of anxious and nervous children, led by an elder of the Xiao Clan, came to the ritual platform for bloodline awakening.

Nothing else, this bloodline awakening ritual of the Bloodline Ceremony was the most important event for anyone in the Xiao Clan.

It determined what kind of cultivation they would receive from the Xiao Clan in the future.

Those with strong bloodlines would receive strong cultivation from the family and would henceforth be part of the ruling class.

Those with weaker bloodlines would receive less family cultivation, and their future was destined to be one of being sent out, or intermarrying.

In intermarriage, the bloodline power of future generations would become weaker and weaker, and their status would also become lower and lower.

In other words, this time determined their future.
