Chapter 261: The Real Reason
Xing heard a ring in her ear with those two screaming at each other and her head started to hurt and she just wanted to scram out of there.
Everything seemed surreal for her and in all that confusion, her rational brain started working and she knew that Shihong is planning something more but what could that be?
She is the one supposed to kill Old Rong and why would the one who is currently benefiting from Old Rong asking for her child in exchange for Old Rong?
It surely cannot be for him wanting a family!
Then she realised from the story Shihong told, when Shihong tried to leave the palace Old Rong asked for his blood to leave the palace and that is probably because the blood with the God Essence is needed to break the strong spell the Tianshi Emperor had put around the palace temporarily, for him to get out.
Shihong said he got his periods after he left the palace and if that is the case, he’d have lost the God Essence after that as mentioned by the Tianshi Emperor and Xing could see his blood is not glowing like Chenglie’s blood.
But before this New year, Old Rong was able to enter the palace... And Shihong put that blood spell on Chenglei to attack the Emperor too.... So may be they used Chenglie’s blood for that...?
Even so, Old Rong couldn’t have been able to leave the palace as Chenglei didn’t help them out. If so... Then there is only one possibility.
Old Rong is getting too weaker and he is not having the strength of a God to be detected by the barrier.
Xing could confirm it because as Chenglie mentioned the incident from the Caijing Library, Old Rong could make shapes out of fire and made it attack them. But when Xing was attacked in her courtyard recently, he didn’t do such things and only prompted Shihong to act.
So Old Rong is too weak to be even considered a God! This is good!
But still, Old Rong is still dangerous because he is extremely smart and his brains is what to be feared more than his strength.
