Chapter 681: with translation of chapter title

~6 min read 1,050 words

Even though her Yun Tribe bloodline is the lowest among the Yun Tribe, in Donghai City, where there is no Yun Tribe bloodline at all, she is the most noble of all.

She could almost imagine the envious looks Donghai City people would cast upon seeing her Yun Tribe bloodline.

She will surely dazzle the entire crowd!

Yun Luo couldn't help curling the corner of her mouth, she rarely smiled and said, "Since you want proof, I'll give you proof." As she spoke, she suddenly turned around and shouted, "Lord of Donghai City, take this young lady to the Blood Jade Pillar!"

"Yes!"

Yun Hai obeyed without question, hurried forward, guiding Yun Luo toward the square outside the inn.

Yun Luo took two steps, thought of something, stopped and turned back, "You'd better keep up, otherwise if you miss it, I won't show it a second time!"

Having said that, she strutted off toward the outside of the inn.

The square of Donghai City is always bustling, the liveliest place.

Today, hearing that a Yun Tribe person would use the Blood Jade Pillar to test bloodline, everyone put down their work and gathered here.

You know, although this Blood Jade Pillar has existed for a long time, because Donghai City is remote and far from Yunzhong City, Yun Tribe people rarely come here; even if they do, they seldom test their bloodline, so the pillar may not light up once a year on ordinary days.

Now that a Yun Tribe bloodline has finally appeared and will be used to test bloodline, how could the citizens of Donghai City miss such a good opportunity?

Thus, in less than a quarter hour, Donghai Square was already packed with people, livelier than during New Year.

"Is it true that a Yun Tribe person is coming to test bloodline?"

"It's absolutely true; our city lord personally received them—how could it be false?"

"Tsk tsk, I've never seen a Yun Tribe person test bloodline before—I'm really looking forward to it!"

At this moment, Yun Luo, guided by Yun Hai, had arrived at the center of the square.

The Blood Jade Pillar stands on a small platform in the center. This small platform has a mechanism that can retract underground, raising a larger platform for special occasions as a stage or training ground.

"Miss Yun Luo, please!"

Yun Hai stood beside the steps, making a "please" gesture.

This platform, also called the Blood Jade Pillar Platform, only Yun Tribe members are allowed to step on; anyone else who does will be executed by hanging.

Therefore, ordinarily no one appears on this platform—not even a bird can perch there without being shot dead by the guards stationed around.

Yun Luo nodded lightly, stepped up the stairs, and in a few steps was on the platform.

She looked down from above, swept her gaze around, found the crowd unexpectedly large, and her mouth corner involuntarily curled.

She greatly enjoyed the feeling of being the focus of everyone's attention.

Among the Yun Tribe, she is just a nobody; there are many with purer bloodline than hers, so she never gets extra attention—only in places like remote Donghai City can she enjoy such special treatment.

Hearing the crowd discuss her, with envy in their eyes, she unconsciously lifted her chin.

What she is most proud of in life is being born into the Yun Tribe and becoming a Yun Tribe member.

However, Yun Luo forgot that if a person's lifetime pride rests solely on their birth, then undoubtedly their life is a failure.

Yun Luo turned around to face the jade pillar that resembled a bamboo stalk.

The jade pillar is three zhang high, three chi in diameter, evenly divided into ten sections.

As citizens of Yunfu, everyone knows that only Yun Tribe bloodline can light the Blood Jade Pillar.

Moreover, the purer the bloodline and the greater the potential, the higher the number of sections lit.

It is said that among the Yun Tribe's collateral bloodlines, the worst result is one section lit, the best is five sections.

As for the direct bloodlines, the worst is six sections; eight or nine sections are considered very good, carrying great weight in the Yun Tribe's status.

Once renowned across the world, the dazzling first genius girl of Nan Yin Zhou, Yun Ling, in a bloodline test that year, directly reached the terrifying ten sections!

You know, even the current clan leader, Yun Ling's father, has only nine and a half sections.

Nan Yin Zhou even experienced an earthquake because of this; everyone predicted that the pattern of Nan Yin Zhou might change due to Yun Ling's appearance.

Who would have thought that such a stunningly talented person would suddenly disappear, with no news for over twenty years.

As a collateral branch member, Yun Luo naturally could not have such pure bloodline.

Even so, she still attracts everyone's attention.

Yun Luo smiled confidently, placed her hand on the Blood Jade Pillar, infused Mysterious Force; the pillar trembled, a gust of wind swept outward, and in the next instant, the pillar began to sparkle with light from its base upward.

The crimson light crept upward bit by bit, very slowly.

An experienced person could tell at once that Yun Luo's bloodline would not be very good, because for those with pure Yun Tribe bloodline, the first three sections light up quickly.

The red glow of the Blood Jade Pillar moved upward from below at a snail's pace, taking a while to fill one section, but everyone was patient, after all such an opportunity is rare.

"The Blood Jade Pillar in Donghai City is of poor quality; unlike the one in Yunzhong City, its speed could be fast."

Fu San began showing off his learning again.

Han Xing finally gave him a faint approving glance; even though brief, it was enough to make Fu San overjoyed.

Not easy! So not easy! Marrying a wife is really hard!

Soon, Yun Luo's red light stopped at a point less than two sections up.

From afar, the red light was just a bit higher than Yun Luo's height, and most of the Blood Jade Pillar remained white.

Even so, Yun Luo was still satisfied.

After all, in Donghai City, a bloodline like hers is already supremely noble!
