Chapter 230: Blood Test
In a room less than three square meters, the snake-woman, her face twisted with rage, was frantically rummaging through various bottles and jars.
Clearly, due to the sudden incident, "Foolish Sha Sha Li Man" had been suppressed once again.
This was the storage room of the Sudar ancestral mansion, filled with numerous ancient and wondrous family treasures, as well as a vast amount of historical junk.
In this incident, the most inexplicable victim was probably the poor Miss Shaliman, the "fiancée" who had just privately pledged her relationship with Li En.
"Ha, he is clearly my fiancé, my lover; we were just one step away. How did he become the Queen's husband, the Kingdom's royal consort?!"
"Reincarnation? What the hell? I know that the heroic soul of the dead can return, but why descend upon the body of my future husband?"
"Wait, Your Majesty, what are you and my fiancé doing?! Why won't you let me get close? What exactly are you doing?"
Last night, the one kicked out wasn't just Dai Niya.
Miss Shaliman's continuous dissatisfaction and complaints were all suppressed; Dai Niya was her benefactor and superior, while Your Majesty was the object of her loyalty. Her life and her future were bound to the Kingdom; could she really rebel?
"A late-night talk? Do you take me for a fool? A woman who hasn't had a man for fifteen years and her returning husband alone in a room for a whole night, and it's just chatting?! Do you take me for an elementary school student?!"
"Crack!"
She was so furious she directly crushed the bottle in her hand.
"Even if it's the Hero inside! That body is still my Shaliman Sudar's man! Can you old woman have some shame?!"
Her original loyalty had vanished completely; Miss Shaliman could no longer endure it. She suddenly smashed everything in a frenzy, shattering bottles and jars all over the floor.
But suddenly, she stopped.
Taking a deep breath, Miss Shaliman gently picked up a bottle. The "Lizard Skull" mark on it was too terrifying; if it had really shattered here, she would have been done for.
"I hope I don't have to use it."
Putting this "Lizard Killer (including reptiles and dragons)" aside, Miss Shaliman searched for her target.
"Finally found it; luckily I didn't lose it."
It was a bottle of pale blue potion, with solids vaguely flowing within, occasionally emitting a golden light.
Bloodline Potion; many nobles use it when necessary. They have many illegitimate children, and this world has its own way of confirming blood relationships.
This potion used materials from the ancestral mansion, so it naturally locked onto the Sudar bloodline, and it wasn't prepared long ago!
Actually, this matter should have been done when Li En arrived, but on one hand, Li En happily expressed his willingness to cancel the engagement, and on the other hand, his identity as a Classical Paladin made it unnecessary to suspect his virtue, and doing so would be pure humiliation.
But now, looking back, if this Paladin, for some "noble goal," could indeed deceive a woman like her, then his previous resistance to her could also be explained.
Miss Shaliman, taking another deep breath, looked at the potion. Many thoughts flashed through her mind, yet she inexplicably hesitated.
Perhaps, she already had the answer in her heart.
Anger and indignation had not destroyed her reason; after becoming slightly clear-headed, she noticed the biggest problem.
Is it really this coincidental? My fiancé just happens to be the reincarnation of the Hero? Are you using me to return to the Kingdom?
Many small doubts about Li En not being quite "Lizard-man" enough were instantly recalled. Even if you are a degenerate species, those living habits shouldn't be completely absent. Why do you look like a pure Dragonborn? Are you really Li En Sudar?!
"He, he must have his own difficulties. Let's stop here."
A snake head, flicking its tongue, advised "herself" to stop here.
Foolish Sha Sha Li Man was never truly foolish; some things should stop here. If the truth were truly exposed, would she explode with him?
Once certain truths are known, how will they get along afterwards? It would be uncomfortable in the heart; better to pretend not to know. Didn't expect that, did you?
"I, I hate being lied to by others."
But Miss Shaliman's face darkened. Her only expectation for her future husband was that he wouldn't deceive her; people from the past had done disgusting things, and she could absolutely not accept a liar living by her side.
The potion was quickly divided in two, with a short strand of hair and a vial of blood placed in front of each. Getting these was no difficulty for Miss Shaliman. The pale blue potion sat on the table, yet Miss Shaliman hesitated once more.
Putting the two substances in separately, if both turn purple, it means the bloodline is normal; if they turn red...
"No! Let's stop here." And Foolish Sha Sha Li Man was still advising her.
At this moment, Miss Shaliman suddenly felt that her foolish self might not be foolish; perhaps being a little confused was the only way to find happiness.
"I, I forbid you from lying to me!"
But Miss Shaliman still could not accept lies!
"Crack!"
Both vials of potion reacted violently, and Miss Shaliman and Foolish Sha Sha Li Man were so nervous their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.
The reaction was rapid. When everything settled, Miss Shaliman had collapsed completely, lying down like a snake, utterly exhausted.
"As expected... it is indeed true!"
"Wonderful, wonderful, he didn't lie to us."
The potion on the table, that deep purple, proclaimed that all of this was real!
"Li En Sudar" was not only of the Sudar family, but his bloodline was also quite pure! Much purer than Miss Shaliman Sudar!
"Wonderful, wonderful." Only then did Miss Shaliman notice she was sweating all over from fear, and even her tail had stiffened in terror.
The next moment, thick fighting spirit burned fiercely in her pupils.
As long as Li En didn't lie to her, then even if the opponent is someone of high status, what's the big deal?!
"For my happiness, I will not retreat."
—
"This world is a makeshift stage."
The more he understood the so-called history, the more he comprehended the so-called high ranks of the Kingdom, and the clearer his understanding of what so-called legendary heroes and the strongest Heroes were like, the more deeply Li En affirmed this statement.
The "late-night talk" let Li En know many secrets that could not be spoken, especially the reality that this nation was on the verge of collapse.
"I don't want to deal with it anymore."
The "giving up" attitude displayed by the Queen, Li En took as just angry words. The outrageous truth about her father and sister probably hurt her deeply. Holding up the Kingdom alone until now was truly not easy, but it seemed she really had no necessity to persist anymore.
"I hope it's just angry words."
On Li En's side, he was not idle either; the priority was still to clean up the aftermath of the attack.
【Synchronization Rate: 71%, Satisfaction: 56%】
【Temporary Class Level: Tier 1 Warrior, Tier 1 Weapon Master, Tier 1 Heroine (these temporary classes will vanish in 9 days and 11 hours)】
The most valuable thing, the panel cannot reveal.
I must say, the current Li En is probably very strong; besides strength, he has nothing else, but his strength is quite high. Under his "Sword Technique Correction," Li En is far stronger than when Sul possessed him back then.
"Haven't found her yet?"
"No, she might have already left."
In this incident, another important figure vanished directly: Lex's eldest daughter, Hela. After her "biological father" jumped out and started swinging his sword wildly, she vanished instantly, running away with incredible speed.
"Lex, when you were swinging your sword wildly everywhere, why didn't you deal with her... never mind, I'm too lazy to lecture you." And this hidden threat, I'm afraid only Li En can resolve.
What gives Li En even more of a headache is that Hela seems to indeed be the true Princess, one of the true heirs of this kingdom, and she looks too much like Dai Niya; they look like sisters at first glance.
If she were to make a strong claim or something, even if she only made Dai Niya the Second Princess, it would still validate the rumor of the "Summoned Doomsday Second Princess."
