Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: Senior, Be Strong! Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: Senior, Be Strong! At this critical juncture, Ji Chuchen volunteered bravely, actively requesting a blood test to prove his innocence.
To be honest, Huang Xiaolong felt like laughing.
It seemed that this secret, buried for years, was uncovered by Huang Xiaolong at the most inappropriate time and was revealed before the public and the whole world.
But the audience present didn’t believe it at all!
How could the prestigious Emei Sect’s law enforcement Hall Master Ji be a father without clarity? It must be a slander by Huang Xiaolong!
To do such a thing was surely deserving of death!
“Young man, today’s matter concerns my reputation, and now, my son is willing to undergo a blood test. However, this blood test cannot be done in vain! We do not want to be fooled by you,” Hall Master Ji said from on high, looking down at Huang Xiaolong with a stern and serious tone, his gaze cold and harsh. “If my son’s blood test reveals the Ji Family’s bloodline, proving he is my own flesh and blood, what will you have to say then?”
“Ah~~ Coming to the crunch, yet still hoping for a stroke of luck…” Huang Xiaolong looked at Hall Master Ji with a pitying gaze. “It doesn’t matter anymore; if my judgment is wrong, then whether to kill or to maim, I will accept your decision. Hurry up with the blood test; I’m tired of talking about this vexing matter.”
“Good! Blood test! Young man, if your judgment is wrong, or if you are simply spouting nonsense, then… you will cripple your cultivation and leave this place!” Hall Master Ji declared indignantly.
In the void, that eternal voice also spoke up. “Let it be decided then. Young man, you will be responsible for your actions.”
“Of course, I’ll take responsibility,” Huang Xiaolong yawned.
Immediately, several cultivators brought over a table and held several bowls of water, walking to the platform where Huang Xiaolong and Ji Chuchen were standing.
“Does this blood test require seclusion? Shall we do it here?” Huang Xiaolong reminded everyone.
“Shut up!” Ji Chuchen rebuked angrily and walked arrogantly toward the table. “Father, now your son will prove that I am your offspring! Your son has inherited the most prized bloodline of the Ji Family ancestors! Born a cut above the ordinary.”
“Good, child, go on,” Hall Master Ji nodded in approval.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Ji Chuchen approached the table, his heart full of certainty, utterly disbelieving Huang Xiaolong’s words, not in a thousand, not in ten thousand years!
Ji Chuchen rolled up his sleeve, looking at Huang Xiaolong with a mocking gaze. “Watch carefully, the blood of a member of the Ji clan, upon dropping into water, will spread immediately, blooming and forming the shape of a plum blossom. Plum blossom blood is the unique mark of the Ji Family’s bloodline!”
Silence!
The scene was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone’s gaze and attention was locked on Ji Chuchen, even those high-ranking and powerful individuals held their breath, feeling a bit nervous.
The answer was about to be revealed.
Ji Chuchen was not intimidated at all, taking out a sharp and exposed dagger; this was a treasure capable of cutting through anything with extremely powerful offensive capabilities.
He glanced at Huang Xiaolong with schadenfreude. “You will soon cripple your own cultivation!”
The words had just been spoken!
Pfft~!
A cut was made on his left thumb, and blood immediately gushed out.
Ji Chuchen carefully dropped a droplet of blood into a bowl on the table, filled to the brim with clear water.
Whoosh~~!
A droplet of blood fell into the water!!!!
The white water and the red blood were clearly distinct!
At this moment, countless people’s divine senses were concentrated on this ordinary bowl of water.
Hall Master Ji himself landed directly from the sky beside the table, his eyes fixated unblinkingly on that bowl of water.
But something eerie happened!
The blood of Ji Chuchen spread through the water like catkins, it spread, and spread…
But!
It did not form the shape of a plum blossom!
“Hmm?” Hall Master Ji’s pupils suddenly constricted!
That Ji Chuchen, who had a look of absolute complacency on his face, but at that time, his face completely froze, just like a cement face!
It was as if he was wearing a poorly painted mask!
And the color drained from his face in an instant!
Whoosh~~~~~~~~~!!!!!
The whole place was in an uproar!
Then hissing sounds rose from all around!
“God! That guy really hit the nail on the head! The genius Ji Chuchen is actually not the biological son of Hall Master Ji!”
“Plot twist! This is a huge plot twist indeed!”
“Oh my God, that means, Hall Master Ji has been raising someone else’s son for more than twenty years, and he exhausted all his efforts for this son… Tragic! The greatest tragedy in the world!”
“Could it be… a mistake?”
“How could it be a mistake? It’s the plum blossom blood, you can tell just by looking at it, it’s definitely not. Just now, including Hall Master Ji and Ji Chuchen himself, they all said so.”
“This is getting exciting now.”
“Damn, this is too melodramatic!”
“So does this mean, the genius Ji Chuchen is actually a bastard?”
“Who can deny it!”
…
On the spectator stand, in the seating area of the Emei sect, everyone was panic-stricken, at a loss for what to do.
This time, the face of the Emei sect was probably lost!
“Er~~ our Emei sect, I’m afraid there will be trouble ahead.” Ma Chuxia pursed her lips with a smile. “They had to force Little Long to reveal this scandal in public, what’s the point? Now, Hall Master Ji can’t step down.”
“Pfft~~~ I only care, you know, who the heck Old Wang is, he’s got some serious nerve!” Huo Bingyan chuckled.
On the stage.
“No~~~!!!!! This isn’t true! I am not a wild seed! I am not a bastard! Ah!!!!!!” Ji Chuchen screamed in agony, his voice hoarse and warbled!
Quickly, Ji Chuchen cut another finger, trembling, dropping the blood into another bowl of water.
It was just like before, as the blood touched the water, it scattered away, dissolving into the water almost instantly. No plum blossom shape bloomed.
Hall Master Ji numbly looked at the two bowls of water, his eyes a bit hazy, as if recalling past events. His face alternated between colors of rage, pain, suspicion… Various emotions took turns playing out, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
“Father!” Ji Chuchen screamed, and with a thud, fell to his knees in front of Hall Master Ji. “Father, believe your son! Your son is your own flesh and blood! Your son is the bloodline of the Ji Family!”
“Hahaha~~~~” The next moment, Hall Master Ji burst into a wild, desolate laugh, resonating with a sense of despondency of a hero in his twilight years, as if he aged significantly in an instant. “Good, good, today, I lost face, I’ve brought shame upon the Emei sect. Hahaha~~~ Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve all had a good laugh at my expense, truly… you’ve all had a good laugh.”
Everyone there felt a pang of pity in their hearts.
Confronted with such a frustrating matter, even someone as strong as Hall Master Ji would find it unbearable!
“Alright, I give up. From today onwards, I sever all ties with you, we are no longer father and son. I won’t be hard on you, after all, raising you and nurturing you for more than twenty years, I can’t bear to destroy you with my own hands. You, take care of yourself.” Hall Master Ji said his final words to Ji Chuchen, then turned around and walked away slowly.
“No, no no no!” Ji Chuchen began to cry bitterly, then suddenly, with an incredibly resentful gaze, he looked at Huang Xiaolong. “You ruined me! You brought me to ruin! You destroyed my family and name! I will have your life! I must have your life! I will also kill your entire family!!!!!!”

“Whether it’s a match with limits or a fight to the death between you two, I won’t interfere anymore. As you will.” Hall Master Ji said despondently.
Huang Xiaolong’s heart softened suddenly, and looking at the silhouette of Hall Master Ji, he called out loudly, “Elder, stay strong!”
Thud~~!!!!!!
Hall Master Ji stumbled, actually falling to the ground!
