With both hands gripping the doorknob, Yunping's expression showed a slight hint of confusion.

Immediately, he pulled the door handle backward.

With a creak, the sound of the door opening revealed the ethereal beauty of a fairy, a figure seemingly straight out of a dream, standing out before the clouds.

A stunningly beautiful woman, seemingly not belonging to the realm of humanity, stood there, her cheeks beaming with smiles.

"You're all here. Did I disturb the three of you?"

As soon as Yin Hanxuebing spoke, a chilling aura swept across the entire venue.

Zhang Ruoxue and Ye Yuchan quickly shook their heads. They weren't familiar with Yin Hanxuebing at all; they were only allowed to stay in this deep ice cave because of Yun Ping.

They certainly understand that they cannot take the initiative.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be helping Yuan'er..."

Just as Yunping was frowning, feeling dissatisfied with Yin Hanxuebing sneaking out, a small figure suddenly pounced on him.

That bright red Taoist robe, that swaying single ponytail, and that exquisitely beautiful face that is more captivating than any work of art.

*Pfft*—The girl threw herself into Yunping's arms.

"Teacher, teacher~ Yuan'er misses you so much!"

The little girl, who had been asleep for a long time, finally woke up.

135. Lin Yuan's Bloodline

The petite girl sat gracefully on the young man's lap, a smile with dimples blooming on her delicate and elegant face. Her two slender legs dangled in the air and swung back and forth, her tied side ponytail swaying joyfully with her body.

Lin Yuan—no one might believe it, but this girl who looks no more than fourteen or fifteen years old is Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue's only senior sister.

Yun Ping lowered his head slightly and could just see the little girl Lin Yuan's head. Looking at Yuan'er, who was sitting on his lap and swaying back and forth, he asked, "Yuan'er, how come you woke up so quickly? It's only been a day."

"Yuan'er doesn't know~" Lin Yuan seemed to be in a very good mood and answered with a bright smile: "When Yuan'er woke up, she saw this beautiful older sister, and then the beautiful older sister said she would take Yuan'er to find the teacher."

"Does Yuan'er feel any discomfort in her body right now?"

"Hmm...no." Lin Yuan thought for a moment, then shook her head. "Yuan'er feels great right now, and it seems like there's spiritual energy surging within my body! Teacher, teacher, can Yuan'er start cultivating now?"

"It has spiritual energy?"

These words nearly frightened Yunping, who immediately used his divine sense to check on Xiao Lin Yuan's condition.

Sure enough, meridians and similar structures did appear in Lin Yuan's body. However, these meridians were not attached to her flesh and blood; instead, they seemed to be separate tissues.

If you follow these intricate veins and look along the flow of spiritual energy within them, you will find that both these meridians and spiritual energy originate from Lin Yuan's right double pupil!

He used his divine sense to adjust his perspective to face Lin Yuan and carefully examined Xiao Yuan'er's double pupils at that moment.

Lin Yuan's right eye originally had a blue pupil and a green double pupil, but now, due to some special reason, that green double pupil has been tinged with a light blue, and this light blue seems to contain some unfathomable energy.

Yunping could tell that it was the power of Yin Hanxuebing.

In other words, Yin Hanxuebing successfully activated Lin Yuan's double pupil using her own power.

"call--"

Yunping breathed a sigh of relief; Lin Yuan was truly safe now.

He looked gratefully at Yin Hanxuebing, who was sitting in her seat not far away with a smile on her face. "Thanks, I really owe you a lot this time."

“That’s not true.” Yin Hanxue shook her head with a smile. “If I hadn’t chosen her back then, she probably wouldn’t have suffered this pain.”

“But if you don’t choose her, won’t she die?” Yunping reached out and affectionately patted Lin Yuan’s head. “I still remember you said that when you found our little Yuan’er, she was almost dead. Your double pupils just happened to save her life, right?”

Yin Hanxue remained silent, then nodded slightly after a brief silence.

Admittedly, Yin Hanxuebing's grafted double pupils caused Lin Yuan to suffer more unfair treatment than other cultivators, but if it weren't for the grafted double pupils, Lin Yuan probably wouldn't be alive today.

Therefore, Yunping never had any dissatisfaction with Yin Hanxuebing because of the grafting.

Seeing that Yin Hanxue remained silent again, Yun Ping asked another question to start the conversation, "So, why did our Yuan'er wake up so quickly? Didn't you say it would take two or three days?"

"According to the original schedule, it would indeed take two or three days, but this little girl seems to be a bit special."

"Special?" Yun Ping glanced at Lin Yuan in his arms, seemingly puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Yin Hanxue suddenly stopped talking and instead looked at the three people in the room besides Yun Ping with a complicated expression.

The meaning is clear—this is a secret that cannot be made public.

Ye Yuchan, who was the first to realize this, silently got off the ice bed. Although her head still ached a bit, she knew it was inconvenient to say what she was about to say in front of many people, so she decided to leave gracefully.

Just as Ye Yuchan was about to leave with Zhang Ruoxue, Yunping stopped them.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Everyone here is one of us. Just say what you need to say."

Yin Hanxue stared intently at Yun Ping, as if trying to confirm whether he was joking.

However, Yun Ping's expression remained as firm and certain as ever, and Yin Hanxuebing could not detect even the slightest hint of falsehood.

“Sigh…” Yin Hanxuebing, one of the twenty-one extremes, sighed helplessly, “Alright, since you don’t want to avoid suspicion, then I’ll just say it directly.”

After speaking, she pointed to Lin Yuan, who was in Yun Ping's arms with a curious expression on her face.

"This little girl may have an ancient bloodline that has not yet been activated."

"The ancient era?!"

Ye Yuchan and Zhang Ruoxue both exclaimed in surprise.

The ancient era was also known as the era of Emperor Wu.

In that era of rampant demons and uncertain immortal paths, war and death raged across the three celestial realms. Almost no race escaped the ravages of war, and a peaceful life was simply nonexistent.

It was in this turbulent era that all sorts of monsters and demons appeared in droves, and driven by the instinct for survival, some particularly powerful bloodlines were passed down over time.

It has been said that the weakest era was the end of the Hundred Saints Era. Although saints appeared at that time, their level was far inferior to the monsters and prodigies of the early Hundred Saints Era. The most terrifying era was the Ancient Era, because any old demon that appeared at that time could have the strength to kill a saint.

This is why the bloodlines of the ancient times are hailed as priceless treasures. Once activated, the cultivation level of the bloodline holder will likely advance by leaps and bounds, and ascending to the heavens in one step will no longer be a legend.

Yun Ping stared at Yin Hanxuebing for a long time before uttering, "As far as I know, there are only five bloodlines that have been passed down from ancient times to the present day."

"And none of these five bloodlines are normal bloodlines."

Yin Hanxue nodded, her tone icy cold, “Indeed, those five bloodlines are all bloodlines of slaughter built from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but this girl is different… she may be the sixth unknown bloodline.”

"you sure?"

"If even you can't see the bloodline, of course I can't be 100% sure," Yin Hanxue said calmly. "I'm just suggesting a possibility. This was something I discovered by accident when I activated my double pupils. It's very likely that the bloodline imprint of a powerful figure from an ancient era resides within her body."

Upon hearing the words "bloodline imprint," Yun Ping's expression darkened.

If it were just a normal concealment of bloodline, he couldn't possibly not notice it, but if it were a bloodline imprint... that would indeed be possible.

Because the bloodline imprint is not an ordinary hidden bloodline. It is a method used by a powerful person from an ancient era to fuse their own bloodline and then directly implant it into the soul of the bloodline successor.

In order for future bloodline descendants to recognize their ancestors, the bloodline mark will also provide guidance—in other words, the bloodline mark will point in a certain direction, which is the location of that powerful person's clan.

"Where does the bloodline imprint point?"

Faced with Yun Ping's expected question, Yin Hanxue slowly extended one index finger and pointed upwards.

"Not in the Desolate Heaven Domain, but in the Extreme Heaven Domain or the Kun Heaven Domain."

"Of course, it's also possible... this little girl is the orphan of a bloodline that has already been wiped out."

136. Requirements for Silver Cold Snow Ice

"Teacher, teacher, what is this pretty older sister saying...? Why can't Yuan'er understand a word she says?"

The petite girl in his arms looked puzzled, as if she had no idea that Yin Hanxuebing and Yun Ping's conversation was directed at her.

Yun Ping looked down at Lin Yuan, the little girl who had just turned her head, and smiled warmly like a spring breeze. He reached out and pinched the little girl's cheek.

"It's nothing. This pretty older sister was just saying it casually. Yuan'er, you don't need to take it to heart."

"Eh...is that so?"

"Yes, that's right." Yunping squinted, not wanting Yuan'er to be distracted by the matter of bloodline too early. "I wouldn't lie to you, would I?"

Lin Yuan blinked her big, bright eyes, nodded sharply, and smiled happily, "Yes! Teacher would never lie to Yuan'er~ Hehehe..."

Yin Hanxue looked at the master and disciple, and opened her mouth to say something, but was overwhelmed by the emotions that suddenly surged into her heart, and swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Not long ago, I had a similar conversation with my apprentice.

But now—

She shook her head, trying to shake away all these unpleasant experiences, straightened her posture, and looked at Yunping again.

"In short, that's how it is with your disciple. From now on, all her cultivation must begin with that double pupil. She cannot cultivate external techniques. However, I have placed some things I have researched in that double pupil, so she can cultivate them."

"Oh? Thank you very much."

Yun Ping replied indifferently. In fact, even without the things Yin Hanxuebing gave him, Yun Ping had already figured out the path he wanted Lin Yuan to take next.

A path that is very similar to my former self, but even more extreme and focused.

Faced with Yun Ping's obviously indifferent reply, Yin Hanxuebing couldn't help but put on a stern face. While feeling somewhat dissatisfied, she couldn't help but smile slightly as she looked at the female disciples present.

The next moment, an Oscar statuette shone on her forehead.

"How cold-hearted... That's how men are. Once they find a new love, they become indifferent to their old flames." Yin Hanxue glared at Yun Ping with a charming and alluring expression, her words full of dissatisfaction and coquettishness. "They were just clinging to each other a moment ago, constantly entwined..."

"Entwined...entwined!!"

Upon hearing those two words, Ye Yuchan felt as if raindrops were falling on the green grass on her head.

This isn't just a hint, it's a fucking direct statement!

A man and a woman cuddling together, entwined in each other... no matter how you look at it, it can only be...

*Pfft, pfft, pfft—* Ye Yuchan was so angry her forehead was about to explode.

Not only Ye Yuchan, but even Lin Yuan, the little girl sitting in Yun Ping's arms, suddenly stopped. Then, she quickly grabbed Yun Ping's thigh with her two little hands and twisted it hard!

Ouch—that's amazing!

Lin Yuan tilted her head, and a cold expression appeared on her exquisite face, which was as beautiful as a work of art.

Admittedly, this was the first time Yunping had ever seen Lin Yuan in such a dark state!
