Chapter 2370 - Siren Bottle (1/2)
“The relic was left behind by Bai Yi’s mother. Why didn’t she just give it to Bai Yi? She didn’t even tell Bai Yi about its location, but she gave it to an outsider like Lan Haixin. Was Bai Yi’s mother some patriot who valued the good of the Siren above all?” Han Sen thought something was wrong about this situation.
The old Siren woman looked at Han Sen, who had frozen on the spot. Ignoring what Lan Haixin had said, she barked in a rougher tone, “My Prince, neither your blood nor the holy virgin’s blood is pure. Even if you knew where the relic was, without the holy virgin’s blood, you wouldn’t be able to activate the relic. The last holy virgin kept the relic from you because of your stubbornness. She was worried you’d hurt yourself with it.”
Han Sen coldly grunted and said, “How was I supposed to know, if she didn’t want to give me the relic, anyway?
Lan Haixin was annoyed. “You harbor suspicions about your own mother? It would be shameful to have you as a son. I feel so sorry for her, putting all that effort into raising you.”
The old Siren woman said, “My Prince, you worry too much. If the last holy virgin didn’t want you to have the relic, why did she program the Crystal Palace to require your blood to open? She was worried that you would rush to claim the relic, come here alone, and get hurt by it. Now, you can claim the relic with the holy virgin Lan. By combining both of your blood together, you should be able to activate the relic. There will be no risk that way. This is what the last holy virgin wanted.”
“Using blood again? I’m not really Bai Yi. Can my blood open the Crystal Palace?” Han Sen felt depressed, and then he thought to himself, “Maybe the programming of the Crystal Palace focuses on the Original Water King Body. I will have to give it a try, at least. If that doesn’t work, then I can tell them that I haven’t fully overtaken Han Sen’s body, and that I still have some genes to bring into submission. I can tell them I will come back another time to try. I need to stall this for as long as possible.”
Once Han Sen had thought of a plan, he walked up to the Crystal Palace’s door. His right eye’s Purple-Eye Butterfly was spinning fast as he examined the crystal door ahead of him.
The crystal door was ten meters tall, and it looked very powerful. There was a blurry halo around it, and it was filled with the colors of the rainbow. It looked rather magical.
It was a double door, and each side held the depiction of a female Siren. This palace had obviously been left behind by the Siren, as the stylings were very distinctive.
Han Sen knew that he couldn’t just drop some blood on the door and expect it to open. There must have been some sort of system involved, and that was what Han Sen was looking for.
With the aid of his Purple-Eye Butterfly, Han Sen found a special place upon the door.
Both sides of the door featured the engraving of a Siren woman, and the two women’s arms were folded into each other. All four hands came together to clutch a crystal bottle. The crystal bottle was at the center of the door.
The style of the crystal bottle made Han Sen frown, because it reminded him of the Crystal God Conch’s sheets of glass.
The crystal bottle was like a carving. At the center of the bottle was a small hole. If he wasn’t paying close attention, he wouldn’t have noticed it.
But with his Purple-Eye Butterfly, Han Sen could see how the bottle had been made.
Han Sen walked right before the door. He raised his hand to the carving of the crystal bottle, and as he drew closer, he used the Original Water King Body to transform his hand into water.
His fingers brushed the hole, and some water separated from his fingers to drip into it. Then Han Sen pulled his hand back and took a step in retreat. He watched the Crystal Palace’s door.
From the reaction given by Lan Haixin and the others, Han Sen knew he had done it correctly. But he was still being careful. He considered what he might say if he was unable to open the Crystal Palace’s door.
Katcha-cha!
