Only I can make them stronger

He had a feeling that there were more secrets hidden behind this seemingly empty Crimson Temple, and if he simply stopped there, this trip would be in vain.

In this way, more and more blood-colored particles were extracted from Qilisi's body, and the color of the pale crystals gradually changed from the light pink just now to complete red.

When there were no more particles flowing in the blood, the system prompt finally came:

[Complete the Boiling Blood Suppressor]

[In the bond quest [Blood Fusion], Qilis will not go berserk because of your blood]

[Qilisi's factor sharing function upgrade requirements: complete 6 bond tasks, current progress 2/6]

【Complete the Desire】

[Since the *% element in Qilisi's mutant factor has been taken back, Qilisi can no longer gain strength by absorbing blood, and will no longer have a desire for blood.]

[Qilisi's factor sharing function upgrade requirements: complete 6 bond tasks, current progress 3/6]

[Completion of this task is one of the prerequisites for opening the bond task [Blood Fusion]]

[Due to the recovery of *% of the elements in Qilisi's mutant factor, the real gate of the Crimson Temple is opened]

……

36. Hidden bedroom in the temple

Four task prompts came one after another, and Xia Ye was overwhelmed.

After understanding for a long time, we can basically draw the following conclusions:

First, his action was correct. At least it opened up a new storyline, which was a relatively correct choice.

Second, those red particles that were absorbed in the opposite direction should be the garbled part of Qilisi's mutant factor. Even if this part was not explicitly stated, he could basically guess that it was the blood-thirsty factor of Qilisi as a vampire;

Third, the Crimson Temple still had many hidden things, and it was only after his operation that it was officially opened;

Fourth, Qilisi's blood thirst factor has been drained away, and she has no way to gain power, so he needs to use some method to supplement or replace it;

Fifth, this method can be understood by just thinking with your butt...

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to start..."

Xia Ye looked at Qilisi who had collapsed in his arms and thought to himself.

As for replenishing the magic, there has been only one way to replenish the magic since ancient times.

"Xia...Ye...I am..."

At this time, Qilisi opened her eyes with a moan, called herself, and then looked around.

"Just now I felt... white flames covering my eyes, and then my body became extremely hot... and then there was only red left. Did I do something?"

While being controlled by the blood line, Qilisi was unconscious, but when she saw the traces of fighting around her and the sickle dropped on the ground, she vaguely noticed something.

"It's nothing. You just lost your mind for a short time. You're fine now."

Xia Ye smiled and helped her up.

But the latter's legs went weak and she fell into his arms again.

"I... have no strength... I feel like all my energy has been drained away, and my mind is empty too... I feel so uncomfortable..."

Qilisi frowned and said weakly.

"Is it because a portion of the mutant factor has been extracted and needs to be replenished urgently..."

Xia Ye thought about it and briefly explained to the other party the conclusion he got through the system task.

"The part of my mutant gene that craves blood... is gone?" Qilisi was stunned when she heard that. She subconsciously touched her fangs with her little hand and found that they were indeed much shorter. At best, they were just larger canine fangs.

"That should be the case." Xia Ye nodded.

"Then... am I not considered a vampire?" Qilisi asked doubtfully.

"That's hard to say. It depends on what the Crimson Temple's trial means..."

Hearing this, Xia Ye looked up at the blue crystal.

Since a while ago, this thing has turned into a ball of red energy that is as tall as a person, and it has completely lost the appearance of the white ore just now.

"Master, the shape of the blue crystal has become very strange. I can feel that its power is still there, but... it is mixed with something else, and it looks like some kind of passage, which is connected to the source of power that affects it..."

Holleiya's confused voice sounded in her mind.

Born from the blue crystal, she was very sensitive to this thing and revealed the essence of this huge energy ball in one sentence.

"So... something like a portal?"

Xia Ye narrowed his eyes and looked at the red energy ball.

Now Qi Lisi was empty and weak, and going in directly was not a good decision;

But if she left at this point, it would be hard to say whether Qilisi, who had some of her mutant factors extracted, would be able to open the external door. It would be troublesome if she couldn't do that.

"Qilisi, let me hold you and go see what this trial is. If we find anything unusual, we can retreat immediately, okay?"

After some hesitation, Xia Ye decided to go in and take a look.

He still has a lot of strength left now, and the mental power replenishing ring is useless. He shouldn't be to the point where he will die immediately if he encounters any danger.

"Okay... I'll listen to you..." Qilisi rubbed her face in Xia Ye's arms and said indifferently.

She felt very comfortable being held by Xia Ye and didn't want to think about anything.

"I put your weapons into the subspace backpack first."

"it is good……"

"Okay, let's see what's behind this."

Xia Ye put away the giant sickle, picked up the lithe vampire girl, and stretched out her hand towards the red energy ball.

A blazing red light instantly filled the two people's vision.

……

When they regained their vision, they had arrived at a new place.

The walls are in an elegant and ancient style, with a large red bed with gauze curtains and a fluffy red goose down quilt. There are two expensive-looking sofas next to a coffee table. On the coffee table there is only a white vase with a blooming white flower in it.

Apart from that, there is only a wooden European-style door.

"This looks... like a bedroom?"

Xia Ye looked at it carefully in surprise, a little bit unable to understand.

Isn't it a trial?

He just thought the big bed and two sofas looked very comfortable.

"Do you have any impression of this place?"

After thinking fruitlessly, Xia Ye asked Qilisi in his arms.

"No... It's a place I've never been to... But... It feels strangely familiar."

Qilisi also had a confused look on her face.

Compared to the hall with floating blue crystals just now, she felt that this place gave her a very peaceful feeling, as if she had seen it before, but she couldn't remember where it was.

"This is a strange development... It's a bit of a headache..."

Just as Xia Ye was hesitating whether to open the door and go out to take a look, the door suddenly opened.

Then, a figure who was as tall as Shana walked in.

The person who came was covered in a pitch-black cloak so that his specific figure could not be seen. His entire face was also covered with a black veil so that his true appearance was difficult to discern. Only his waist-length white hair was braided into a complicated pattern. His steps were light and graceful, and he looked extremely elegant.

"Guide?!"

Qilisi cried out in shock.

Isn't this the woman who brought her to the Holy Land of the Blood Clan? How come she suddenly appeared here?

"Qilisi, and this... sir, welcome, please take a seat."

The other party stretched out a hand wearing a silk black glove and made a gesture of invitation to Xia Ye. The voice sounded just as Qilisi said, gentle and magnetic, and the tone would make people involuntarily think of the appearance of some mature women.

"You are..." Xia Ye became slightly alert, but did not move.

"Sit down first and chat slowly. I have no ill will towards you...or rather, I'm just happy to see you come."

The woman chuckled, closed the door, walked to the sofa first, and sat down gracefully.

After she sat down, the figure that was originally hidden by the cloak could be seen through the outline of the cloth. She looked like a tall and well-proportioned woman, which was exactly in line with her voice.

Seeing this, Xia Ye placed Qilis on the sofa opposite and sat beside her.

"I know you have a lot of confusion. Don't worry. We can talk about it."

"First of all, there is no doubt that you are the owner of [Origin], sir?"

Seeing this, the woman spoke.

37. The Husband of the Blood Clan

"..."

"The fact that you can come here already proves your identity, the owner of [Origin]..."

"I'm sorry that I used extreme means to guide Qilisi to attack you, but believe me, that was not my original intention. Only in this way can the owner of [Origin] be detected."

"In fact, even if you are really unable to resist, Qi Lisi will not take your life."

Seeing that Xia Ye didn't answer, the woman continued.

Extreme methods probably refer to those red lines that make Qilisi unable to control herself and want to suck herself dry.

No wonder Xia Ye felt that the battle just now was extremely simple. Judging from the results alone, the other party’s words were still somewhat credible.

But he remained cautious about women of unknown origin, even though they had helped Qilisi before.

"I think it would be better if you introduce yourself first."

Xia Ye interrupted the other person.

"Very defensive, yes...I am being rude."

The woman did not seem displeased. She stood up and performed some kind of etiquette, then happily introduced:

"My name is Cassandra, and I'm the mutant with mutant factor number 6, or what everyone calls a vampire."

"I am the builder and guardian of the Crimson Temple. My duty is to guide Qilis through the trials of the Crimson Temple and obtain the truly perfect mutant factor."

"And in this process, sir, you... the owner of the power of [Origin], are an indispensable helper."

"Did you build this place?" The other party really didn't introduce himself, but when he did, Xia Ye was shocked.

The power and mystery of this Crimson Temple are so powerful that they are visible to the naked eye. So how powerful is Cassandra, the instigator?

Seventh level? Eighth level? Even ninth level?

"Not just this one, but the others as well."
