Swallowing the Stars: Start with an Enlightenment System

Chapter 18 The Girl with Second-Class Bloodline

"Please, gentlemen, let my sister in!"

"Hmph, a mere ninth-level apprentice, you don't even qualify to apply for imperial citizenship! If you dare to cause any more trouble, don't blame us for being impolite!"

As soon as Baiyuan stepped out of the office building, he saw two young men pleading with the two guards.

The man possessed the cultivation level of a first-tier planetary cultivator, while the girl was only a ninth-tier apprentice.

Both of them had blond hair and blue eyes, and were outstanding in appearance.

A woman with such features would fetch a high price in the slave market.

After all, those in the universe who are rich and powerful but have no interest in cultivation always prefer to find some fun elsewhere.

After carefully observing the two, Baiyuan suddenly frowned and sensed something amiss.

"If begging were effective, what would be the point of cultivation?"

He stepped forward, casually took out a shimmering white crystal—it was the Muya Crystal—and tossed it to the girl.

"The opportunity is yours; whether you can break through it is up to you."

This action left the two guards speechless.

Mu Yajing is quite valuable, yet it was given away so casually!

The girl instinctively caught the crystal, then quickly shook her head, "This...this is too precious, I can't accept it..."

The young man beside her grew anxious: "Sister! What time is it now! Those people could catch up at any moment, if you hesitate any longer it will be too late!"

Baiyuan nodded: "It's just a Wood Crystal, nothing to me. The people chasing you... seem to be getting closer."

Upon hearing this, the girl no longer hesitated and immediately sat down cross-legged, beginning to absorb the energy of the Wood Crystal to break through to the planetary level.

The two guards immediately put on flattering smiles: "Sir, you are truly kind to give them a chance."

Bai Yuan shook his head slightly: "I'm in a good mood today, so I just helped out casually."

In fact, he didn't really have such good intentions.

The reason for taking out the Muya Crystal was because they noticed something unusual about the girl.

"Her bloodline seems more complex than it appears. Is she mixed-race? Or some kind of diluted lineage?"

Baiyuan's genetic energy belongs to the metal element, making it particularly sensitive to metal-related blood vessels.

The girl's bloodline was far more refined than her brother's, and even faintly exuded a powerful aura.

Just as he was secretly observing, four figures swiftly attacked.

The leader had two horns on his head and dark skin. He was only at the third level of the planetary realm, but he was followed by three guards at the first level of the celestial realm.

"Great! I've finally found you!"

"Take them back with you. Both of you will be warming my bed tonight!"

The dark-skinned man grinned, his gaze roaming greedily over the brother and sister.

Baiyuan's lips twitched slightly. He hadn't realized this guy had such eclectic tastes.

Bai Yuan stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Stop! Look where you are! Do you think you can act so wildly in front of the Black Dragon Mountain office building?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards stepped forward simultaneously, their eyes sharp.

Although they were only at the ninth level of the planetary realm, they represented the face of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire at this moment.

Let alone a few star-level beings, even if a cosmic-level being came, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly here.

One of the three star-level guards suddenly caught sight of Bai Yuan's appearance, and his expression changed drastically.

"Blade Clan! Young Master, let's go! We can't afford to mess with this man!"

Upon hearing the words "Blade Clan," the dark-skinned man was immediately horrified. He no longer dared to be arrogant and fled in panic with his guards without looking back.

The two guards exchanged a glance, a hint of envy flashing in their eyes.

Ultimately, the other side was wary of the Blade Clan's background, which is why they retreated so decisively.

Upon seeing this, the young man was so moved that he was about to kneel down and kowtow in gratitude, but Baiyuan stopped him.

"No need to kneel. Let's talk somewhere else after your sister breaks through."

Half an hour later, the girl's body vibrated with primal force, and her aura suddenly surged, successfully breaking through to the planetary level.

As her life level leaped, a golden light slowly flowed through her already bright eyes, becoming even more dazzling than before.

After successfully breaking through to the planetary level, the girl couldn't hide her excitement, which meant she was finally eligible to apply for imperial citizenship.

After she finished the formalities, Baiyuan took her brother and sister and rented a castle.

While ordinary courtyards are not uninhabitable, the castle is much more well-equipped, with facilities such as secluded chambers for closed-door cultivation, martial arts arenas for practicing combat skills, and various life support systems.

Mogu and Mojin followed Baiyuan into the castle hall, their eyes filled with a daze.

Not long ago, they only asked for a place to stay, let alone dared to dream of living in such a place.

Baiyuan sat down on a wide chair and looked at the two of them.

"My name is Yuan, what's yours?"

"My name is Mo Gu, and this is my younger sister, Mo Jin," the man replied respectfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Jin suddenly raised his head, looked directly at Bai Yuan, and said in a firm tone, as if he had prepared himself mentally:

"Brother Yuan is willing to use the Wood Crystal to help me break through; it can't be just out of kindness, right? I wonder what Brother Yuan wants from us?"

Baiyuan nodded. Since the other party had already put it bluntly, he would no longer beat around the bush.

"I want to know your origins, especially yours; your bloodline is quite extraordinary."

Mo Gu and Mo Jin exchanged a glance, and after a moment of silence, Mo Gu spoke with a wry smile:

"Since Brother Yuan asked, we won't hide it. Actually, we come from a very ordinary background, and the strongest in our clan is only at the Hengxing level. The only special thing is... a long time ago, there was a woman in our clan who was so beautiful that she was forcibly taken as a concubine by a cosmic-level powerhouse."

"It is said that the powerful individual came from a powerful clan and possessed a second-class cosmic bloodline, reaching the cosmic level upon adulthood."

"Since then, a very small number of people in our clan have inherited that person's bloodline, but once the bloodline manifests, they are immediately taken away and never heard from again."

"Until three years ago, a group of space pirates suddenly attacked, crushing that cosmic-level being and looting and burning throughout the star system. My sister and I escaped by sneaking into a cargo ship during the chaos."

At this point, Mogu sighed, "Unfortunately, the spaceship's energy was limited, so we had to land on this nearby planet. After that, we were targeted by that group of people. If we hadn't met Brother Yuan, I'm afraid..."

He didn't say anything more, but the lingering fear and gratitude in his eyes were already clear.

Baiyuan finally understood; these two siblings were truly blessed with good fortune and long lives.

First, she was a slave, driven by that cosmic lord as a resource tool, and in theory, she could never escape the fate of being controlled in this lifetime.

Unexpectedly, the space pirates attacked suddenly, giving them a chance to escape in the chaos, and they actually managed to escape from that situation!

Then, drifting in the vast universe, they not only encountered no danger, but also accurately found a habitable planet.

After landing, they were targeted and were about to fall into the clutches of evil again.

But it was at that very moment that I met myself.

If this series of events were placed in other fantasy novels, even if the protagonist wasn't incredibly lucky, he would definitely be considered a low-budget version of the "chosen one".

"I see." Baiyuan understood.

"In that case, it seems that your sister has inherited that bloodline almost perfectly, but it has not been truly activated before."

As he spoke, he looked at Mogu and said, "As for you, you probably only inherited a trace of bloodline and are not worth anything."

After hearing Baiyuan's words, Mogu was not disappointed; instead, his eyes shone with boundless brilliance.

"Really? My sister will become a cosmic-level powerhouse in the future!"

Bai Yuan said calmly:

"Bloodline is just the starting point. Without diligent cultivation, one will ultimately be nothing more than an empty shell, not worth mentioning."
