Chapter 1525: Chapter 1347: Stormy Night in Jianghu

Xia Dabao immediately took a step back, unable to comprehend what the Dragon Clan meant.

However, Nan Feng stood in front of Xia Dabao. "Clan Chief, what does this mean? We came here to seek medical help, hoping your tribe could save my son. But why do you want to keep my daughter here?"

"Hmph, I know your son is sick, but you don’t know yet, do you? The source of your son’s illness is because of you. You are not from this era; it’s because of the changes in the celestial patterns that you arrived here. You were supposed to wait for the right moment to return, but you forcefully stayed and bore these two children with a man. These children, being neither here nor there, naturally one of them would fall ill."

Nan Feng had already guessed that she herself was the source. Now, hearing the Clan Chief say that, she immediately believed him. "But you still haven’t answered me, what do you want my daughter for?"

"It’s for practicing witchcraft. But don’t worry, I only need a little of her blood every seven days. She won’t be in any danger to her life. If you agree to leave your daughter, I have a way to save your son. In one month, your son will be able to awaken."

Axian had hardly been awake these past two days.

"What exactly do you mean by ’a little blood’? I need to know the specific amount," said Nan Feng.

Humans have the ability to regenerate blood, and a small blood loss wouldn’t affect health, but too much could be life-threatening. Nan Feng couldn’t risk Xia Dabao’s life for Axian’s.

The Clan Chief quickly threw a bottle to Nan Feng, who caught it. It was a narrow bottle, not very deep, equivalent to the typical amount drawn at a hospital, certainly not enough to endanger life.

Xia Dabao, who was a bit scared just now, had now come to a realization. "Mother, if it can save Axian, I’m willing to stay. I’m not afraid of drawing blood."

The Clan Chief chuckled again. "Truly a brave lady. Quickly, bring your brother over here, let me have a look."

He specified that Xia Dabao should carry him. Xia Dabao then took Axian from her brother’s arms and walked towards the Clan Chief.

Coming closer, she sensed a peculiar scent on the Clan Chief, a very strong smell of cosmetics, as if trying to cover some other odor.

"Hehe, you are still a maiden of the Dragon Clan. Your father must be a prince of some nation, right?" asked the Clan Chief.

"No, my father is just a farmer," Xia Dabao thought to herself. The common folks say the Emperor is an incarnation of the dragon, so by the Clan Chief referring to the Dragon Clan... did he mean her father was a royal?

Impossible!

"If not, then surely your mother fooled your father, you mustn’t tell your father this," the Clan Chief even started joking.

Xia Dabao thought it would be better if he didn’t joke at all. His attempt at humor just made him seem more eerie, giving her the creeps.

Fearful as it was, Xia Dabao nevertheless retorted, "My parents are very loving. Don’t throw mud at them. If you say such things again, I won’t cooperate with you."

"Oh, the little darling has quite the temper. Alright then, if you don’t want to hear it, I won’t say it. Let me first have a look at your brother," the Clan Chief said, proceeding to flip up Axian’s eyelid and then touched his chest, declaring, "The qi is leaking externally, but I have my ways."

After that, the Clan Chief opened Axian’s mouth and threw something inside. Axian’s eyes moved slightly, followed by his breathing becoming rapid, though it soon stabilized.
