Chapter 384: The Story Behind II

Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Chong thought of Mu and Shang. Without their help, who knew how his life would be now? The memory of his time with Mu and Shang sent a warm feeling to his heart.

”Then you arrived in the He Yue Galaxy out of nowhere. In all honesty, we still don’t know how you got here,” Luo Shi smiled even more wryly.

”Our people were still searching for you in the Five Galaxies. When they saw you in the He Yue Galaxy, they were shocked! Haha, you should’ve seen their faces. Ye Wuqin was all just plain flabbergasted! It was awesome!” Luo Shi laughed, obviously enjoying the memory.

His easy laughter was soothing to Ye Chong, but he did not lower his guard.

”You know what happened next. The Three Aristocratic Families ended up all in a nervous wreck because of you. But we’ve been curious, why are the Xue Lai Clan and Xi Feng Tribe hot on your heels too?”

”Don’t know,” Ye Chong answered calmly.

”They don’t matter anyway. Hey, if you think about it, we might be brothers,” Luo Shi said, excited, ”My siblings back at home were all wondering who your parents are, but none of them have any obvious conclusions. The elders at home are also watching you closely.”

Ye Chong kept his expression neutral, but a strange feeling was bubbling into existence within him. Parents? What an unfamiliar term.

”You mind if I verify with your blood?” Luo Shi looked at Ye Chong nervously, his eyes shining with enthusiasm.

”Verify how?” Ye Chong asked. That was something he was curious about all this while.

With Ye Chong’s agreement, Luo Shi seemed to relax a little. He calmed down and explained, ”It’s simple. For members of our tribe, their blood will turn into a sky blue color when mixed with Bolmanshek solution.”

He chortled as he produced a transparent crystal test tube from his waist. ”Good thing I brought this with me, it’s providence alright. No one brings this around with them!” He flicked a finger and opened the cap. The crystal test tube was filled with a transparent liquid. Luo Shi offered the test tube to Ye Chong and said, ”One drop of blood. Just one drop will be enough.”

Ye Chong studied the crystal test tube with a plain expression, even though his emotions were all over the place. His blood rushed through his veins in dysphoria.

Perhaps, he’ll finally have an answer! This was a question that had troubled him for so long, and now, he was about to find out the truth.

Was he a member of the Ye Family?

Ye Chong could not stay calm in spite of his usual composure. He had told himself many times that his origins should not bother him. These were matters that did not affect him in a concrete way. His biological origin was just that, and nothing more.

However, now that the truth was about to be revealed, Ye Chong found the coolness that he prided himself on was so brittle against reality!

His pulse raced like never before. His long, even breathing turned shorter as his blood rushed with excitement.

Ye Chong closed his eyes and forced himself to take a long, deep breath! It took almost all of his strength to inhale this time, then he exhaled the air within him heavily outwards! All his troubles seemed to escape from him, following that exhale.

When Ye Chong opened his eyes again, they were once again determined and focused.

Whatever will be, will be!

He took out his dagger and touched his index finger lightly against the edge of the blade. He reached his index finger to the crystal test tube’s opening and squeezed gently. A drop of crimson blood dived into the test tube. Plop! It met the transparent Bolmanshek liquid.

Luo Shi watched nervously at the crystal test tube in Ye Chong’s hand.

The crystal clear liquid in the test tube suddenly transformed. When the blood was mixed into the liquid, it diffused quickly like smoke in air, and a sky blue color began to spread its tendrils quickly in the test tube, dying the entirety of its content in a beautiful sky blue.

The sky blue test tube dazzled under the sun like a flawless blue diamond.

Luo Shi’s face reddened as he leaped up in excitement. His loud voice carried out across the entire plain as he cried, ”Hahahaha .... I have a new brother! … I have a new brother! …” He jumped around happily like a child, an entirely different person from the gentlemanly Luo Shi that he usually was like.

Ye Chong stared at the crystal test tube with its sky blue content.

He was not the least bit happy. The Bolmanshek solution, now dyed a sky blue, had filled up every corner of his heart and soul. Even the softness beneath his strong and emotionless surface was affected.
