515: Shocking News

Who knew how long the person claiming to be Lunza had been in that cell. His unwashed hair had grown past his waist and his beard was already at chest level. His clothes reeked of excrement and urine because he hadn’t washed in so long.

“Are you humans?!” Lunza was excited. He hadn’t seen a single human in so long that his face flushed with excitement.

"You are Lunza?” Tianhang asked uncertainly. He had never met Lunza in person, but he had heard that Tianxing’s senior brother was named Lunza.

“You know me?!” Lunza was a little surprised, but he wasn’t shocked by it. He was kind of famous for guarding Blood Moon forest, so it wasn’t that strange for someone to recognize him.

“Rumors outside say you fell in love with a woman from the Blood clan and that you helped them break the barrier. That you are a traitor to humanity.” Juntian explained.

“Me? A traitor to the human race?!” Lunza burst out laughing. It was a laugh filled with pain and saddness.

“It was Feng Tianxing who said it, wasn’t it? That hateful bitch. The thing I regret most in this life is not seeing her true face sooner and killing her in time!” Lunza growled.

“You say it was Feng Tianxing. But she’s a respected daughter of Feng house. Why would you hate her so much?” Tianhang cautiously asked his question without sharing his own identity.

“Daughter of Feng house?! Yes, she is a daughter of that house, but she’s also a lowly woman. That lowly woman had an affair with a prince of the Blood clan and gave birth to his evil seed. She used her identity as a guardian of the forest to help them find the weak spots in the enchantment barrier.

She helped break the enchantment and harmed ordinary people outside the forest. The four great elders, the master and I, we were all ruined by her evil hand. She poisoned our food and brought us all here when we found out who she really was.

She acted like she was letting us live, but she was only keeping us to feed the Blood clan. They came to suck our blood every day.

Master and the four great elders were unable to bear it and perished. If I hadn’t met you, after I died, I’m sure this matter would never see the light of day.”

Lunza had a wry smile on his face. His beard was long and thick and blocked much of his lower face, but Tianhang and his children could guess his expression based on the tone of his words.

Tianhang couldn’t believe his ears. He couldn’t believe his younger sister, who had always been a soft and gentle child when she was younger, would actually tie herself to a blood prince and have a child with one. What was even more frightening was her helping the Blood clan to break the seal.

It couldn’t be his sister! His heart became unsteady.

“No it can’t be true. You are spouting nonsense! Tianxing has always been a sweet and kind person. There is no way she would betray humanity!”

Tianhang had his suspicions, but he could not believe the sister he’d loved for so many years was that kind of person.

The revelation was such a blow to him that he would have collapsed if Feng Wu and Juntian weren’t there to support him.

“You are from Feng house!”

Lunza easily deduced this from Tianhang’s reaction. He never expected, after so long without human traffic, that the first people to come through would be related to Tianxing.

“Yes, I am Feng Tianxing’s older brother, Feng Tianhang. Tell me what you said is not true. My younger sister would never betray humanity like this. You must be wrongly accusing her!” Tianhang, who was normally stoic and calm, almost couldn’t bear the blow.

Though he suffered a strong blow, Wuliu[notes] would suffer an even stronger one. Tianhang's heart ached just thinking how upset his father would be.

“I have wronged her? Me? Heh. I have lived in Blood Moon forest for so many years and I’ve only ever seen your sister wrong others. When would someone even have the ability to wrong her?” Lunza smiled coldly.

He could only guess what these people from Feng house were there to do. But he knew it was unlikely Tianhang would share what he learned today to the world. The damage to their reputation would be too great if it was revealed someone from their house was a traitor. Lunza was sure they wouldn’t make it public.

No matter the situation, Tianxing was head of house. He adjusted his mentality and cleared the expression off his face.

“Little girl, how did you get here?” Lunza didn’t feel like paying any more attention to Tianhang so he focused on the only girl in the room.

Feng Wu glanced at him and thought for a while before replying. “We had a meal with Aunt Tianxing then woke up here.”

How they ended up in this place, Feng Wu had no idea.

Lunza’s eyes shook when he heard this. “No! You must leave here at once! Feng Tianxing means to take your blood for her bastard!”

“Explain yourself. What do you mean?” Tianhang asked with a frown.

“Ah, you really don’t know anything. Feng Tianxing’s daughter is named Feng Yanran. That girl is destined to have a short life because she’s a human-blood hybrid. If Feng Tianxing wants to save her daughter, she will have to purify the blood from her human side to 100% Feng family blood.”

“What do you mean?” Tianhang asked.

“Basically, it’s about purifying the blood in in her body. The Feng family bloodline in her body right now is not strong or pure. This is part of the reason she can’t live long. The stronger bloodline from the blood race in her will instinctively suppress the weaker one.

I believe you are aware that family bloodlines like yours are not common. People inherit different amounts from their lineage, with some getting 30%, 50% or even 80%. How pure the blood is, the greater the future talent.

Feng Yanran’s blood purity is too low. If she wants the human blood in her body to become 100% pure, she must devour the blood of people in the same bloodline as her.

The strongest member of the Feng family currently should be Old Master Feng. I believe Feng Tianxing will want her daughter to devour him the most, so she will definitely target him. Old Master Feng’s body has pure magic and strong blood purity. If Yanran can consume him, she will gain immense strength. It’s likely she’ll be the next blood emperor.”
