247: Second Bloodline Awakening

After the ceremony concluded, those who needed to leave departed, and Chen De and the others naturally rose to leave as well.

His two younger sisters were eager for Chen De to see the secret flower patch, wishing they could open it right away.

Chen De simply let them have their way.

Chen De had initially thought that after hearing they would all be together, they would have a big fight.

After all, such an absurd idea might not be acceptable to them.

However, Chen De hadn't expected that, aside from a brief moment of shyness at first, both of them were now full of anticipation and eagerness.

Do important figures really play so wildly and excitingly?

In his previous life, Chen De was just a small-time character who was framed by his brothers and took the blame.

Although he knew those important figures lived lavishly, it was only through rumors.

Chen De, at his level, wasn't qualified to participate, not even to watch.

No, Chen De shook his head.

The internal system of this family was inherently abnormal, even quite twisted.

Many things Chen De found incredible might be considered normal by them.

As for Chen De suggesting the three of them together, it wasn't, of course, for them to just fool around together.

Rather, Chen De felt it would be too troublesome to deal with them one by one. Both of them were close to Xiao Miao, and there would inevitably be some contact in the future.

So he might as well finish it all at once this time and 'convert' both of them.

Chen De had only approached it with a 'let's try' attitude, never expecting them to actually want to go through with it.

Could it be that even with Chen De's modern societal mindset, he was still too conservative?

There were many temptations in this world. To keep himself from getting lost in them, Chen De could only become more 'moral'.

In such a cold world, only warm 'morality' could offer a shred of solace to Chen De's fragile heart.

Thus, Chen De could only half-heartedly allow himself to be pulled by his two younger sisters towards the room.

Just then, Xiao Dou, who had just left after the Bloodline Ceremony, suddenly appeared before the three of them.

Seeing the three of them together, and in such intimate poses, Xiao Dou silently nodded.

It seemed the relationship between the little trio was good, and no major conflicts had erupted.

It was just the three of them together, looking so harmonious.

Xiao Miao's Bloodline talent was even stronger than his father's, the Xiao Clan Head.

And Xiao Shao and Xiao Ying's Bloodlines were second only to Xiao Miao's within the Xiao Clan.

Therefore, from the moment they were born, they were destined to marry Xiao Miao.

Furthermore, because the more powerful a cultivator was, the more difficult it became to bear children, they had already been betrothed when Xiao Ying and Xiao Shao were thirteen.

Unfortunately, perhaps due to the strength of their Bloodlines, they hadn't been able to have any children to this day.

However, with the Bloodlines of the three of them, any offspring born would undoubtedly possess a Seven-Star Bloodline.

Such a Bloodline would not be easy to produce.

They could only hope they would try harder.

Seeing Xiao Dou appear before them, Chen De immediately waved and smiled, "Dad, you're here!"

Xiao Ying and Xiao Shao, however, reluctantly called out, "Dad."

He came neither early nor late, but precisely at this moment; they were already soaked with anticipation.

Xiao Dou looked at their differing expressions and smiled faintly, "What? It seems I've come at an inconvenient time and interrupted your good fun?"

Chen De shook his head and said earnestly, "How could that be, Dad! I've been so looking forward to your arrival, so looking forward to seeing you and calling you Dad.

Dad, I love you to death!"

Looking at Chen De's earnest expression, Xiao Dou inexplicably felt a chill, utterly disgusted, and got goosebumps all over his body.

They say a father's love is like a mountain; a man's love is usually not expressed in words.

Because once spoken, the speaker himself would feel nauseated, embarrassed, and unable to say it.

So hearing these words made Xiao Dou extremely uncomfortable.

And, for some inexplicable reason, he just felt a layer of connection had been added to something.

After Chen De had 'controlled' Xiao Dou with his words, he continued, asking curiously, "By the way, Dad, did you need me for something?"

Xiao Shao and Xiao Ying, standing nearby, nodded their small heads repeatedly in agreement,

"Yes, yes, Dad, if there's nothing, please leave first. Brother and I have something to do.

We agreed that he would guide us in cultivation later."

Hearing such an obvious attempt to rush him away, Xiao Dou did not get angry.

Instead, he playfully scolded, "Alright, you little rascal, you handle relationships so well.

Besides, can't I come to see you even if there's nothing important?"

Xiao Shao and Xiao Ying were getting impatient. After holding back for so long, they planned to go back and immediately enter seclusion, fighting for three days and three nights.

This old man kept babbling on and on; how annoying.

Seemingly noticing their impatience, Xiao Dou sighed helplessly, "Actually, I didn't come for Miao'er this time, but for the two of you."

Upon hearing this, the two girls immediately refused, stating that whatever it was, it could wait a few days.

What a joke! They were just about to start their fun, and he wanted them for something? They weren't going!

However, Xiao Dou very seriously stated, "This matter is very important. Both of you are also at the threshold of your second Bloodline awakening.

If successful, the two of you might even reach a level close to Miao'er's.

At that time, the descendants you bear will also be even more powerful."

The second awakening is when a Bloodline that was not fully awakened during the first awakening is completed.

At the same time, it is only performed on clansmen whose Bloodline power is already strong.

Because the Bloodline power from a second awakening is far less than that of the first Bloodline, usually only serving as a 'finishing touch'.

For clansmen whose first awakening was not remarkable, the second awakening would be even worse, or even nonexistent.

Only for clansmen with a powerful first awakening would the amount of power from a second awakening be considerable.

With their strong Bloodlines, the two girls naturally had this qualification.

As for Xiao Miao, he had already undergone his second awakening.

"Ah!"

The two girls made a bitter face, held up a finger, and discussed, "Then can we go tomorrow? Just for one night."

This time, Xiao Dou indicated there was no room for negotiation. "No, this matter must be done; it cannot be delayed.

According to the test results, now is the best time.

Moreover, before a second Bloodline awakening, one cannot do 'that', otherwise it will affect the awakening's effectiveness.

The two of you must come with me now."

At this, they had no choice but to go.

They also understood the importance of the matter, so they replied with downcast faces, "Alright then!"

Xiao Dou nodded, looked at Chen De, and said caringly, "Miao'er, you should go back and rest then. You must be tired after being out for so long."

Chen De felt a bit regretful but responded calmly, "Okay!"

Then, Xiao Dou was about to take the two girls away. At this point, Xiao Shao sent a mental message, "Brother, you must wait for us to come out of seclusion, don't run off again.

If your sister comes out and doesn't see you, she'll be sad."

The other, Xiao Ying, also spoke, quietly sending a mental message, "Brother, don't go out again. After I'm done, I'm definitely going to thoroughly drain you."

Hearing these words, Chen De and Xiao Dou's bodies trembled slightly.
