Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 5855: Heavenly Sovereign Violet Blood

Liu Changtian’s voice boomed with authority, resonating with the laws of heaven and earth. His words carried a divine weight, as if he were the will of the world itself—absolute and unquestionable.

Liu Xihua simply sighed upon hearing his command. “Your Majesty, Ruyan, she—”

“Her opinion is irrelevant. She is my daughter, so from the moment she was born, she carried the mission of reviving the Undying Willow race. That is her fate. I will not permit anyone to defy my orders,” interjected Liu Changtian coldly.

Liu Xihua was silent for a long time in front of this cold response. Eventually, she said, “We once scattered three thousand seeds throughout the lower world in hopes that the Undying Willow race would still exist if we were wiped out.

“Ruyan knows this. But perhaps... She has spent too long among humans. She’s no longer just taking a human form—her heart and her will have started to shift as well. She will not be able to accept your decision. She says she doesn’t feel at home here. There’s neither warmth nor any sense of belonging. She says it feels like... she’s just an orphan.”

“Silence!” Liu Changtian roared furiously, causing a wild aura to unfurl within the palace.

The aura swept Liu Xihua’s robes and hair back, making her appear frail and insignificant before him.

“How can the great Undying race be stained by the human race’s foul emotions?! Does she not understand her status? How could she even think of such a thing?! Her duty is to cultivate with all her strength, to lead our race through this chaos, and ensure we are not erased from existence! This is not the time for childish tantrums!” Liu Changtian thundered.

But Liu Xihua only shook her head and sighed. “I’ve conveyed these same words to her. She didn’t argue. She simply looked at me with cold eyes, as if she found the whole conversation ridiculous. She cares nothing for her identity as a Sovereign’s daughter. If it weren’t for Chu Yao constantly persuading her to stay, I believe she would’ve already abandoned us. I’ve tried to advise her multiple times, trying to reach her inner heart. But every time, I fail. In her eyes, we’re not family—we’re schemers. She believes she was born merely to be used as a pawn and a tool for the revival of the Undying race.”

The palace trembled again as Liu Changtian’s fury surged.

But with a calm voice, Liu Xihua continued, “I was as angry as you are now. But the more I think about it... isn’t she right? From the beginning, we had our own intentions when she was born. We had our own agenda when we sent her to the mortal world. In human terms... it was a business transaction.”

“You—! Have you been poisoned by this human nonsense too?!” Liu Changtian raged.

Liu Xihua replied, “She told me something once. She said someone once told her that the love of a father and mother should be unconditional—born from the heart. Whether their child is brilliant or foolish, strong or weak, that love should never change. Likewise, children love their parents not for beauty or wealth, but because they’re family. Love should be simple and pure. Not laced with expectation or reward.

“I had never heard something so... real, even after living countless years. Now, the one who said it has now arrived, and I’ve seen him with my own eyes. That’s why I think... no matter how high we stand, no matter how long we’ve lived, maybe it’s time we look at things from a different perspective.”

Liu Changtian narrowed his eyes and coldly asked, “Well, now you have piqued my curiosity. You’re speaking of Long Chen, aren’t you? What kind of god is this boy to make even you speak for him?”

“He possesses three bloodlines, each one of shocking origins.”

“Oh?” Liu Changtian was slightly surprised. To make even Liu Xihua call them shocking, he couldn’t help being curious.

“First, he uses dragon blood power. Though not a Sovereign sprout, whenever he uses the dragon race’s divine arts, they carry the weight of Sovereign might. I suspect the origins of his dragon blood aren’t ordinary,” said Liu Xihua.

“In the primal chaos era,” said Liu Changtian, “aside from their primal chaos patriarch, the dragon race had thirty-six Dragon Sovereigns. They all came from the same bloodline and were known as the sovereign race. Outside that branch, countless other dragon branches existed. There were too many half-Sovereigns and pre-Sovereigns to count. But almost all the dragon race’s elites died in combat back then. Their Sovereign blood was spilled throughout the nine heavens and ten lands. Even if he obtained a Dragon Sovereign’s violet blood and refined it into his own essence blood, it’s not too surprising,” said Liu Changtian, feeling like this should not be enough to shock Liu Xihua.

“But that’s only the beginning,” Liu Xihua said. “He also carries the Jiuli bloodline.”

“The Jiuli bloodline?”

That finally made Liu Changtian’s expression change.

“And one more—Heavenly Sovereign Violet Blood.”

“The violet blood race has many branches. Are you certain it’s the Heavenly Sovereign line?” asked Liu Changtian.

“I am. Without a doubt.”

After hearing this, Liu Changtian fell silent.

Liu Xihua then said quietly, “There’s more. When he was on the brink of death, the stars above the nine heavens trembled, and the ten thousand Daos gathered around him. A faint star diagram could be seen around him. If I’m not mistaken... he’s related to the one you hate most.”

“A nine star heir?!” Liu Changtian hissed through his gritted teeth.

If Long Chen were present, he would have jumped in fright. What kind of deep-seated hatred did Liu Changtian harbor toward the nine star lineage?

“You don’t need to bother with this matter any longer. Three days from now, I will come out of seclusion. I’ll personally deal with that little human brat,” declared Liu Changtian.

Hearing this, Liu Xihua finally looked relieved. This was the best outcome she could hope for. At least Liu Changtian wasn’t ordering Long Chen’s immediate death or expulsion.

As for what would happen when Long Chen and Liu Changtian faced each other, she couldn’t say. But at the very least, she knew Liu Changtian wouldn’t kill Long Chen. After all, his status was too high for him to take action against a junior.

No matter how much Liu Changtian hated the Nine Star Master, he would not personally attack a nine star heir out of revenge. That would make him appear far too petty. Liu Xihua knew that Liu Changtian was someone who cared greatly about face.

This gave Long Chen a chance—at the very least, a chance to survive. That was all Liu Xihua could do for Liu Ruyan. The rest would depend on fate.

…

Far away, deep within the Undying Demon Forest, Chu Yao was tending to Long Chen’s wounds, her life energy pouring into him in a continuous stream.

Seeing that Chu Yao was starting to sweat from the effort, Long Chen gently gripped her hand.

He said, “I’m fine. Yao-er, you should rest!”

The injuries he had sustained from that elder before death were laced with a Sovereign’s power, making them difficult to heal. Chu Yao was already pushing herself hard to heal him.

“Don’t worry about me. I still have plenty of energy,” replied Chu Yao.

Long Chen smiled. “The Sovereign energy in these wounds is actually useful to me. You should go find Ruyan. I’m worried about her.”

While he was still weak, Long Chen could feel something strange—something within his primal chaos space.

The vine inside was slowly absorbing the remnants of Sovereign power from his wounds, easing his healing process. Without that interference, his natural recovery would quickly take over.

“That’s right, speaking of which… Is Ruyan really engaged?” asked Long Chen.

Chu Yao suddenly froze. She turned to look at Long Chen in shock, completely catching him off guard.
