"The world once called us Young Dragon Queens until we exceeded two hundred years old. We're no longer young, you know..."Zestria's face turned crimson upon mentioning this information. The women beside her were all really young, making her want to hide her face. However, Fiora still seemed unconvinced."But this competition...""Ah, that's just to not harm the will of the geniuses." Zestria hurriedly waved her hand, "Before this competition, if you're more than two hundred years old, you're no longer young, but coming back to the topic at hand, my bloodline purity is eighty-nine percent while Giselle's is eighty percent."Fiora and Mingzhi nodded their heads before the former turned to look at a golden-robed woman."What's your bloodline purity, Bylai?""…"Bylai became flabbergasted as she looked at Fiora's pure and limpid eyes. These little girls were casually calling her name. However, it caused her to become moved because she thought that they would push her away just based on their seniority. She was impressed and felt ashamed because she might've definitely not treated them the same if she was the senior.After all, as the Golden Dragon Queen, no matter whom she married back in the Zlatan Family, she would become the main wife instantly, regardless of the man's opinion."Ninety-three percent."Nevertheless, she moved her lips, answering Fiora's curiosity before she added.

"This is our bloodline purity in terms of Emperor Grade. For Immortal Grade, our bloodline purity would be a mere five or six percent. Unless we could become immortals, our bloodline purity wouldn't increase but only regress.""I see." Davis uttered, having a whole new understanding, "Then what do you think Isabella and my bloodline purity is…?"Bylai hesitated as she didn't know too much about them, but Zestria, who knew as she had talked a bit about their past, answered."It should be a hundred percent. As for Immortal Grade, it should be around ninety-nine percent."Bylai was shocked even though she still knew of the possibility. It seemed that they really did inherit the Earth Dragon Immortal's Inheritance. Otherwise, Zestria wouldn't have answered like that.However, Davis became taken aback for another reason."Why not a hundred percent?""Hundred percent means that the bloodline wouldn't regress anytime soon. Only after you reach the Immortal Stage will it become a hundred percent, and only after tens of generations would it start regressing… However, if you are unable to reach the realm of immortals and end up passing away, your descendants should still have many chances to become immortals, but even if they become immortals, their bloodline purity wouldn't reach a hundred percent. If they are unable to become immortals for some unlucky reason, their immortal bloodline quality will start dropping quickly before it becomes abysmal, leaving them with Emperor Grade purity."Once Zestria explained, she let out a complex sigh."That's why we're desperate not to dilute it anymore and even have siblings marry… We can't afford to lose the immortal quality in our blood or risk complete decline of high talent.""Incestual relationships really accomplish something like that?" Davis couldn't help but ask.What if they're just making it up? Follow current on novel-online.com
However, Zestria nodded her head. It didn't seem like she was embarrassed, as though it was a normal thing, as she responded."It doesn't necessarily increase our bloodline purity, but it keeps it stable as much as possible. If we had done it when our Immortal Grade bloodline purity was at ninety-nine percent, perhaps, our quality would've never regressed, and we wouldn't have severed our chances to become immortals. Our talent alone would've been enough for us to become immortals if we had not followed the needless morals and standards of mortals."Not only did she agree that it's real, but it seemed that she even lamented why they didn't do it sooner. However, noticing the strange looks she was receiving, she coughed."After all, if you're going to do it, do it from the start. Why wait until it almost regressed to the point of disappearing?"Only then did everyone nod as they understood her words and her logic."Haha," Mingzhi suddenly couldn't help but laugh, "Drastic measures need drastic situations to happen. If it's committed before that without any valid reason, it's completely wrong.""Like what?""When you kill a human, why is it not fine to kill a child, but it's understandable to kill that same child when it has grown up into an adult? Is crossing sixteen supposed to be a magical point that allows us to kill people free of conscience when they threaten or harm us?"Zestria and Bylai's expression froze from hearing Mingzhi's sharp voice.As Dragon Queens, they were not free from the act of killing. They had killed people of the wicked path in the name of righteousness and justice, but when it faced with those expert's children, even they hesitated and chose to leave or bring them back to orphanages, of which the latter is rarely done because most children, even if they were innocent, know who exactly were the ones who killed their parents.They would always seek revenge, becoming a hateful seed that would ruin the righteous path with slaughter.Faced with future seeds of hatred, sometimes, they had no choice but to put down those children, but they personally hadn't done such a thing, but their group would've done it behind their backs in order to nip the buds to be careful.

Even the heavens didn't interfere as it is rumored that if a person harmed another person significantly, then that person can kill up to nine generations of their family line without receiving karmic sin.No one knows the veracity of this information.However, this kind of morality really did weigh on their conscience.Davis narrowed his brows as he sensed Evelynn shudder ever so lightly. He was just about to stop them from speaking on this sensitive topic when another voice echoed amidst the silence."Wait, wouldn't we transform into a mindless savage beast or a fey if the bloodline purity crossed-""That's called bloodline limit."Fiora suddenly cried out in confusion, but Zestria quickly jabbed an answer. Davis inwardly sighed. Fortunately, Fiora was a smart lass, while Zestria seemed to be uncomfortable with that kind of topic before she continued."Bloodline quality consists of bloodline purity and bloodline limit, of which, you already heard the former from me. As for the latter, your human bloodline limit should be fifty percent, and your magical beast bloodline limit should be fifty percent. If the scale tipped towards the magical beast bloodline limit, you would find yourself transforming into the mindless savage beast you mentioned or become a fey."Everyone nodded their heads in understanding."Mingzhi, be a bit more sensitive."Davis warned Mingzhi through soul transmission with a helpless tone, knowing that she would understand his meaning."Look, you might've removed Evelynn's karmic sin with your mysterious techniques, as she said, but she cannot possibly forget the things she did in a fit of rage and grievance. It cannot become her heart demon, which is dangerous during her tribulation and her future cultivation path. Just now, I probed, and it looks like that guilt still hasn't disappeared completely. You must convince Evelynn that she did no wrong because she's kinder than any of us and would be the last to do something like that, you understand?""...!"Mingzhi's voice was strong and firm as though she wouldn't take no for an answer while Davis inwardly felt shook.
