Listening to the sounds coming from her ear, the female elder couldn’t help but look at Xue Tu.
After all, the decision still lay in Xue Tu’s hands.
Xue Tu shook his head slightly, speaking sternly, "The Blood Pool is the sacred land of our Blood Clan’s heritage, containing the efforts and hopes of our ancestors, and is the source of our clan’s power. It is inviolable."
"This rule has existed since the founding of the Blood Clan and has never been broken. Today should be no exception for an outsider."
The female elder wanted to persuade further but was stopped by Xue Tu raising his hand: "I know you are thinking about the future of the Blood Clan, but this move is too risky."
"If we set this precedent, how will we convince the people in the future?"
Everyone nodded in agreement with Xue Tu’s words.
An elder, who had been silent, spoke: "The Clan Leader’s words are very true. Although the Ancient Sacred Body is tempting, compared to the foundation and stability of the Blood Clan, we cannot take the risk."
"We can completely befriend him by other means, such as giving him some treasures or cultivation techniques, but the Blood Pool absolutely cannot be opened."
Just then, a young Blood Clan elder stepped forward: "Clan Leader, I have a different opinion."
"The situation in the Immortal Realm is turbulent now, and Otherworldly Demons are rampant. Although our Blood Clan has escaped disaster, it’s because we live in the Netherworld Blood Pool. But if discovered by Otherworldly Demons, the outcome is hard to say..."
Xue Tu interrupted his words, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable tone: "The rules cannot be broken!"

As night fell, the world seemed to be covered by a black silk, silent except for the occasional sound of insects, like a gentle nocturne.
After two shichen of cultivation, Xu Wendong’s injuries were completely healed, his entire person restored to peak condition.
He frowned slightly, the faint scent of blood lingering at his nose, causing him some discomfort.
So, he got up and left the bamboo house, walking down the winding path towards the mountain.
At the bottom of the mountain, there’s a small lake that looks like a paradise.
Xu Wendong walked quickly, and soon, the lake appeared before him.
Moonlight poured down like mercury, laying a layer of brilliant silver gauze on the lake’s surface, the shimmering waves flickering like fine diamonds, making the water like a giant mysterious silver mirror, exuding an enchanting tranquility.
Xu Wendong watched vigilantly around, his deep gaze scanning every corner like an eagle’s eye. After confirming no one was there, he quickly removed his clothes stained with blood and dirt.
The clothes fell, revealing his muscular and powerful body.
Naked, he slowly stepped into the lake.
The lake water felt like a gentle lover, enveloping his body in coolness, causing him to shiver slightly, but then a refreshing sensation spread through his body like an electric current, making him hum contentedly.
His hands moved through the water like agile fish, gently washing away the dirt on his body.
Drops of water rolled over the texture of his muscles, reflecting a charming glow.
However, just as he was immersed in this comfort, the sound of slight splashing came from the lake not far away. This sound, in the silent night, was like thunder on the ground.
Xu Wendong’s heart skipped, instinctively looking in the direction of the sound.
At that moment, he felt a rush of blood surge to his head, his heartbeat accelerating, seemingly about to jump out of his chest.
In the misty water haze, Blood Princess appeared before him like a lotus emerging from the water.
Her white skin shimmered enticingly in the moonlight, as smooth and delicate as sheep jade, without a single blemish.
Her slender neck, like a swan’s, gracefully extended downward, her collarbone exquisitely crafted like a delicate artwork, the softly curved indentation seeming to hold the moonlight.
Her round and smooth shoulders appeared even more seductive against the mist, drops of water rolling like glistening pearls playing.
Further down, her full chest, slightly obscured by the water, still stood out, rising and falling gently with her breath, the tantalizing curves like undulating mountains, possessing endless allure, causing one’s heart to race.
Her slender waist seemed fragile enough to snap in a breeze, yet exhibited a supple strength.
Her long and straight legs, partly hidden beneath the water, occasionally revealed skin like the finest silk, emitting a captivating glow, each movement teasing the heartstrings.
Blood Princess seemed startled by this sudden intruder, her initially relaxed expression instantly turning to shock, her beautiful eyes widening, flames igniting within, a mingling of astonishment and furious anger.
Her lips trembled slightly, like a startled delicate rose.
On meeting eyes, Xu Wendong stood frozen, a blaze igniting in his abdomen, with a heat so intense it seemed it could consume him.
He felt his head on the verge of exploding, overwhelmed by nervousness.
For a moment, he was frozen in place, as if paralyzed by an immobilization spell, his limbs seemingly disobedient, his gaze anxious, unsure where to look.
He had never guessed Blood Princess would also be bathing in this lake...
Blood Princess, after a brief shock, quickly regained her composure.
She plunged herself underwater, only her head remaining visible, her long hair like seaweed spreading in the water, adding an extra touch of allure.
With eyes full of embarrassed anger, she scolded, "Xu, I didn’t expect you to be such a dissolute person!"
Xu Wendong snapped out of his shock, his face filled with embarrassment, "I’m sorry Miss Xue Ji, I didn’t know you were here, I was just trying to wash the blood and dirt off, I didn’t see anything!"
Blood Princess snorted dismissively, although Xu Wendong insisted he saw nothing, she believed not a word.
For she had felt Xu Wendong’s invasive gaze scanning her body...
Despite this, she didn’t fly into a rage, after all, Xu Wendong’s intrusion was unintentional.
The blame was on her being too engrossed earlier, failing to sense Xu Wendong’s arrival.
Thinking of this.
She used the Instantaneous Movement Technique, disappearing from the lake, returning to the Purple Bamboo Forest.
Feeling the absence of Blood Princess’s aura.
Xu Wendong breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully washed the dirt off him, but his mind remained haunted by Blood Princess’s striking figure.
Like a burning brand, leaving an indelible mark on his heart...
While Xu Wendong washed his body, he was entirely unaware that Blood Princess’s Soul Force was secretly watching his every move.
On seeing Xu Wendong’s prominent Dragon Root, Blood Princess’s beautiful eyes trembled sharply, overwhelmed by a near-suffocating sensation: "How can it be so large?"
