1193 Blood Cleansing Ceremony

Upon entering the sealed room, Yuan found himself in another empty room, but there was an active portal right at the center of the room.

"Listen to me, Yuan." Xi Shengmo looked at him and spoke with a serious expression, "Once we enter the portal, we will arrive in the Ancestral Sanctuary, where you will be performing what we call a Blood Cleansing Ceremony."

"Only those with Royal Bloodline within the Dragon Clan may undergo such a ceremony, so accepting this ceremony will mean you will be affiliated with our Dragon Clan. Are you willing? If not, we can stop right here."

"I don't mind." Yuan smiled.

He was fond of the Xi Family, so he didn't mind being affiliated with them.

"Very well. Follow me."

Yuan entered the portal with them shortly after.

After being teleported, Yuan found himself inside a sanctuary with drawings of dragons engraved in the walls and windows that surrounded them. And at the center of this sanctuary was a small-sized pool that was filled with what appeared to be blood at first glance.

"Welcome to the Ancestral Sanctuary, Yuan. You are probably the first human to step foot in this place since its creation." Xi Mingze said to him with a warm smile on her face.

However, Yuan was too distracted by the red liquid in the pool.

Seeing this, Xi Shengmo said, "Yes, that is blood— Dragon blood that belongs to our Ancestor, to be precise."

Upon answering Yuan's curiosity, Xi Shengmo continued, "This is where dragons that join the Royal Family go to cleanse their common bloodline, replacing it with royal blood. We, as the Royal Family, also bathe in this blood once every thousand years to strengthen our bloodline."
