"I myself don’t even know what’s going on? I had some issues with that Blood Clan before in Y Country, and as for that church, I’m hearing about it for the first time," Ye Luo said with a helpless expression on his face.

"Big brother!"

At that moment, the mansion’s front door opened, and Alice was the first to run out, throwing her arms around Ye Luo. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Alice, are you alright?" Ye Luo asked.

"Those people seemed to want to take Alice away," Feng Tian walked over, his face slightly pale.

"Feng Tian, you’re hurt," Ye Luo said, looking at him, but the latter shook his head.

"It’s nothing."

"Ye Luo, who is this girl? Why do the Blood Clan people want her?" Battle Wolf asked.

Ye Luo explained Alice’s situation, his eyes flickered, and he said, "Those Blood Clan people indeed have always wanted to get Alice. They probably came to Huaxia for Alice this time, but I don’t know what use she has for them?"

"I heard them saying something about Alice being of the Blood Emperor’s bloodline, it must be related to that," Feng Tian spoke again.

"Blood Emperor’s bloodline? What’s that?" Ye Luo was taken aback, while Battle Wolf and Military Blade’s faces changed upon hearing this, their gazes turned to Alice, revealing a look of astonishment.

"She is actually of the Blood Emperor’s bloodline!"

Battle Wolf and Military Blade couldn’t help exclaiming, their expressions one of disbelief.

"What is the Blood Emperor’s bloodline?" Ye Luo looked at the two men.

With a solemn expression, Battle Wolf spoke gravely, "The Blood Emperor’s bloodline is the highest bloodline among the Blood Clan, and in the Blood Clan, bloodline levels determine rank: Baron, Viscount, Marquis, Duke, Prince, and lastly, the Blood Emperor."

"The Blood Emperor is an emperor-like existence among the Blood Clan, supremely revered, commanding all the Blood Clan. However, the birth of a Blood Emperor is extremely difficult, and only a pure Blood Emperor’s bloodline might give rise to a new Blood Emperor."

"Currently, the Blood Clan only has one Blood Emperor, and that is Andrew’s father. However, according to our understanding, that Blood Emperor was struck and seriously injured by the church’s holy relic during a battle with the Pope of the Holy See decades ago."

"It seems he has not recovered to this day, which has led to the Blood Clan being at a disadvantage in their conflicts with the church for many years. Their attempt to control the Y Country Royal Family was probably to leverage the Royal Family’s strength against the church. But they never expected that a Blood Emperor’s bloodline would appear now."

As they listened to Battle Wolf’s words, everyone’s gaze turned to Alice, the little girl, who looked utterly clueless, as if she knew nothing.

Then, Military Blade said with a somber expression, "The Blood Clan wants to take Alice away, likely because they intend to use the power of her bloodline to help the Blood Emperor recover from his injuries."

"If that’s the case, what will happen to Alice?" Ye Luo asked, looking at Military Blade.

"The end result will be the Blood Emperor absorbing all the strength of Alice’s Blood Emperor bloodline, while she herself would vanish into thin air."

"These guys are really ruthless, I will definitely not let their scheme succeed," Ye Luo said, his face filled with anger after hearing Military Blade’s words, while Alice’s bright eyes showed a hint of fear, clinging tightly to Ye Luo.

Military Blade’s eyes flickered, and he looked at Ye Luo, "Ye Luo, I would like to talk to you alone."

Ye Luo nodded and had the women escort Alice back to the villa.

"Senior Jun Dao, do you have anything to say?"

"Ye Luo, this Alice carries the Blood Emperor’s bloodline; the Blood Clan will definitely not give up on her. If you decide to keep her by your side, there may be great danger. Although after this incident, they wouldn’t dare to confront you openly."

"However, they might still take action in the shadows, and because the Blood Emperor’s bloodline poses a significant threat to the Church as well, they might act against you for this reason. You’ve managed to offend two major powers in the West; you better think this through."

Jun Dao looked at Ye Luo with a solemn expression, while War Wolf also spoke, "That’s right, Ye Luo, you need to understand this. The strength of the Church and the Blood Clan is not to be underestimated, and they’re not even weaker than the top-tier sects of Huaxia’s Hidden Sects."

"Senior Jun Dao, Senior War Wolf, you don’t need to worry about me. Once I’ve made a decision, I won’t change it. Since I’ve decided to take Alice in, then I absolutely won’t let her face any danger, no matter what it may be."

Ye Luo said in a deep voice, his eyes gleaming with unwavering resolve.

"Good, unafraid of any force, responsible, that’s a real man!" War Wolf looked at Ye Luo with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes.

"If that’s the case, then we’ll listen to you. However, since Alice is of the Blood Emperor’s bloodline, once it’s awakened and she becomes the new Blood Emperor, she may become a powerful ally by your side," Jun Dao told Ye Luo.

"Kid, you might just hit the jackpot then. The strength of the Blood Emperor is comparable to a practitioner of the Controlling Qi Realm in our Huaxia martial arts, with truly extraordinary power!" War Wolf exclaimed.

"That powerful!" Ye Luo’s eyes showed a flash of astonishment and a touch of joy. If Alice’s bloodline were awakened and she became the Blood Emperor, wouldn’t that mean he would have a Controlling Qi Realm master by his side? That would really be awesome!

"Alright, now that this matter is resolved, we should leave. We will send people to monitor the situation with the Blood Clan and the Church, to prevent their people from entering Huaxia again." Jun Dao said before he and War Wolf left the area.

Back in the villa, Feng Tian spoke to Ye Luo, "I feel like I’m on the verge of making a breakthrough. I need to return to the Mysterious Valley and use the Spiritual Energy there to enter the Hua Yuan Realm."

"Really? That’s great." Ye Luo smiled at the prospect, as Feng Tian growing stronger would be a significant help to him.

"It’s just that, if I leave and something happens with the Ji Family..." Feng Tian said with a worried look.

"Don’t worry, I’ve been thinking of concocting some Elixirs. Later, I’ll take the women with me and we’ll all stay in the Mysterious Valley for a night," Ye Luo thought for a moment and replied.

"Alright." Feng Tian nodded.

Elsewhere, Andrew and a few Blood Clan experts were hiding in a location in the Capital City.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" one of the Blood Clan experts asked.

"The Huaxia government will surely be looking for us everywhere. We must leave Huaxia first, return to Y Country, and then re-evaluate our situation," Andrew’s gaze flickered.

"And Alice?"

"We’ll discuss that later. Otherwise, if we continue to stay in Huaxia, we can only end up like Isaac," Andrew said coldly.

As night fell, Ye Luo contacted Qin Yuru to arrange everything. They came to the villa, and then with the women and Feng Tian, he left the place, heading toward the Mysterious Valley.
