Chapter 687: Chapter 689: Jade Blood Sword
Elder Jing Lin stroked his chin’s beard, earnestly recalling past events.
Suddenly, his eyes widened as if he remembered something extremely important, and he said to the crowd, “There really is a special kind of essence of blood. Back then, when I was at the Qin City Small Courtyard, I was just a junior deacon…”
Elder Jing Lin then traced back to the specific time, which was around when he was in his twenties, full of youthful vigor.
“Alright, alright, no need to mention the glory days of how you rose step by step from a little underling to an elder when you were young. Just get to the point about the essence of blood,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Well… I shouldn’t hide it from you, Young Master. The piece of Neon Sea Blood Jade was actually taken by our Zhu Clan. At that time, I was fortunate enough to see it in the Qin City Small Courtyard, but there was no follow-up, and its whereabouts were unknown, until twenty years later when I accidentally caught a glimpse of it in our Dripping Lake Inner Courtyard,” Elder Jing Lin explained.
Zhu Minglang glanced at Li Xinghua and Mi Rong.
...
Both women also appeared quite surprised.
The Origin Blood of the previous generation’s Sparrow Wolf God had turned into a piece of Neon Sea Blood Jade, which was taken by the Zhu Clan Small Courtyard and sent to the Imperial Court of the Zhu Clan in the Imperial City.
That is to say, the very thing the Sparrow Wolf God had been desperately searching for was actually in the Zhu Clan!
“Young Master, don’t you know what the best sword in the world that our Zhu Clan forged is called?” Elder Jing Lin said.
“The Jade Blood Sword,” said the white-haired Chief Guardian at this moment.
As a Sword Master, how could he not know the name of this sword? At that time, the Zhu Clan had also risen a rank among the Family Doors, thanks to this sword, becoming one of the rare major powers not centered around Dragon Trainers or members of the God and Mortal.
The Jade Blood Sword???
Zhu Minglang had never heard of this thing!
Elder Jing Lin looked at Zhu Minglang with an air of disdain, seriously doubting that Zhu Minglang, the young Zhu Clan master, was an impostor.
“That’s right, the Jade Blood Sword. After obtaining the Neon Sea Blood Jade, the old Sect Leader regarded it as a treasure and sought out the most perfect materials in the world, spending a full ten years to forge the Jade Blood Sword. It was this sword that firmly secured our position at the bottom of the Six Great Clans. Under the leadership of a Sect Leader not adept at management, we didn’t completely decline, as we possessed this treasure of our clan!” Elder Jing Lin said.
“Are these things known to all members of the Zhu Clan?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Of course not, only the Inner Court elders of the Zhu Clan know about the Jade Blood Sword, and the Chief Guardian has been an elder in our Inner Court for ten years,” Elder Jing Lin said.
“Well, the Zhu Heavenly Officer rarely discusses the internal affairs of the Zhu Clan with me. This Neon Sea Blood Jade is the solidified Origin Blood of some deity. To forge it into a sword, it would be difficult for it not to become the treasure of the clan,” Zhu Minglang said.
On the surface, Zhu Minglang was narrating calmly, but inside, something was churning!
The Best Sword in the World, it turned out his family had such a treasure, forged from Divine Blood no less. If this thing were swallowed by the Sword Spirit Dragon, wouldn’t he possess a Divine Blood Sword!!
Where is this thing, in what place within the Zhu Clan Inner Court? The Sparrow Wolf God is plotting desperately to get it, and it’s too dangerous to leave it just lying in the Inner Court of the Zhu Clan. He’d better hand it over to himself for safekeeping!
“Young Master, it seems that Sparrow Wolf God indeed is your fated enemy. Even if you hadn’t encountered him near Wutu, he would’ve appeared in your destiny’s trajectory because of this Jade Blood Sword,” Li Xinghua said.
“Yes, I’m afraid that when that time comes, it will be the Zhu Clan’s calamity,” Zhu Minglang nodded in agreement.
“The threads of fate are becoming very clear, my lord, we might have to rush to the Imperial City overnight,” Li Xinghua said.
“Now?”
“I have seen some omens, at first I thought it was just a struggle between Zhu Gate and King An, but now it seems it may not be as simple as I thought…” Li Xinghua said.
Li Xinghua’s prophetic dream world was filled with numerous scattered scenes, without the threads of fate in reality to infer from, it was impossible to determine the cause of the whole matter.
She witnessed a blood feud happening within the Zhu Clan Inner Court, initiated by King An himself.
Although King An’s Mansion had been in conflict with Zhu Gate for many years, with frequent battles, this time the Sparrow Wolf God might have discovered the whereabouts of the Neon Sea Blood Jade, directing King An’s Mansion to launch a full-scale attack against Zhu Gate!
“There’s no time to lose, we must return to Zhu Gate now!” Zhu Minglang also realized the gravity of the situation.
Every major power was already in chaos due to the arrival of the Tianshu God Domain, with some Great Sect Woods and clans possibly vanishing overnight. If King An’s Mansion had the backing of the Sparrow Wolf God, the current situation of Zhu Gate was extremely dangerous!
“My lord, even at the fastest speed, it would take half a month to travel from here to the Imperial City. If you were to make a round trip, wouldn’t the Ancestral Dragon City-State that we’ve barely managed to hold fall into someone else’s hands? I think we should still put our trust in the Sect Leader. He will deal with this crisis. Even if he truly cannot withstand the fierce assaults of the major powers, the Sect Leader has prepared a way out. Staying here to safeguard the Ancestral Dragon City-State is also the best option for our Zhu Gate to rise again,” Elder Jing Lin said.
“Did Zhu Heavenly Officer say anything to you?” Zhu Minglang frowned.
“No… he didn’t say anything, the Sect Leader just doesn’t want the young master to be involved in the family’s conflicts,” Elder Jing Lin hurriedly shook his head.
“What’s the point at this time? Speak the truth now!” Zhu Minglang glared fiercely at Elder Jing Lin.
“My lord, the Sect Leader sees things more clearly than any of us. If he asked the young master not to stay in the Imperial City, not to stay at Zhu Gate, he must have his concerns,” Elder Jing Lin said.
“Forget it, I can’t be bothered with your nonsense.” Zhu Minglang took Li Xinghua and Mi Rong and turned to leave.
The Sparrow Wolf God already knew the Jade Blood Sword was at Zhu Gate, and King An had even launched an offensive. This was a blood battle between clans, and Zhu Gate might cease to exist in a few days!
Zhu Minglang had to travel overnight to get there; he absolutely could not let the Jade Blood Sword fall into the hands of the Sparrow Wolf God. If he succeeded, it would not just be the extermination of Zhu Gate, the Ancestral Dragon City-State would be buried alive!!
Such divine beings were extremely dangerous!
…
In the past, Zhu Minglang truly couldn’t manage matters far away in the Imperial City, but after the journey through the Dark Vortex, he could reach the vicinity of the Supreme Court Imperial City within the latter part of the night.
Unfortunately, the number of people who could traverse the Dark Vortex had to be kept to a minimum; otherwise, they would easily attract the attention of the malevolent spirits of the netherworld. The number of experts he could bring with him on this urgent trip to the Imperial City was extremely limited.
“At dusk, I heard Madam Dong say that Hong Geng, the leader of Holy Que, has recovered faster than expected. If needed, we could ask him to come out of retirement,” Mi Rong said.
“Alright, bring him along,” Zhu Minglang nodded.
With this formidable figure of Holy Que with him, Zhu Minglang felt more confident. After all, the waters of the Imperial City were certainly deeper!
