The Young Matriarch-Chapter 340 - Actually, You Just Want to Cheat
Chapter 340: Chapter 340 Actually, You Just Want to Cheat
Xu Xingchen’s voice was not quiet, and Duan Xingye and the others heard it.
Xingye’s mother, Yang Jingya, was wiping the sweat off her son’s brow. Hearing those words, she let out a cold laugh and mockingly said, “The weak always love to make excuses!”
Xu Xingchen was so angry that his handsome face tightened, but he didn’t dare retort against Aunt Yang.
Duan Xingye felt somewhat embarrassed and took the handkerchief from his mother to wipe himself, his mind also wondering, “According to the college entrance exam regulations, a jade pendant isn’t a metal object and can be brought into the exam hall, right? How could it be confiscated? Look… didn’t that girl just now also wear a jade pendant?”
The excited female examinee was wearing a jade Buddha around her neck, smiling brightly as she brushed past them.
Bai Chuwei smiled meaningfully, “Useless jade ornaments can be worn, of course useful ones are not allowed.”
...
The college entrance exam is China’s most important test, and for many ordinary families, it’s an opportunity to change their fate. It demands absolute fairness!
Otherwise, Bai Chuwei would have already given Duan Xingye a Calming Incantation.
The experience of transforming into hundreds of bats and flying was extremely unique. Each bat was under Lide’s control, but it was completely different from when he was in human form.
Transforming into bats was a type of transformation spell, consuming magic power only during the transformation. After transforming, no magic power was needed to maintain it, as long as there was stamina, flying for a day and night was not a problem.
The distance from the Far Mountain Range to Green City was neither too far nor too close.

About five hundred kilometers. After transforming into bats, Lide’s speed was over two hundred kilometers per hour. After two Sunshine Hours, he successfully arrived at the edge of the Far Mountain Range.
The Far Mountain Range stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, being the longest mountain range in the southern part of the Nolan Empire.
The towering mountains separated the Nolan Empire from the Beastman Empire in the barren wasteland further south… The two massive countries only had a contact line of less than three hundred kilometers at the southernmost point.
An ancient castle was built deep in the Far Mountain Range, at an extremely hidden location.
This place was found by the Blood Clan Ancestor after searching for more than ten years in the Far Mountain Range, the terrain was exceptionally perfect.
A large number of bats flapped their wings along the mountain range, shuttling between the air currents and cold winds.
After another two Sunshine Hours, the bat swarm slowly stopped.
This was a steep mountain range, with an ancient castle built halfway up, flanked by two mountains at least three thousand blades high.
The massive castle was built against the steep mountainside, with the walls divided into two sections, one part being the mountain itself, standing five hundred blades high from the ground.
The second section was a wall built halfway up the mountain, over thirty blades high. This wall, made of anti-magic stone with sunken iron stone, could resist the damage of spells below Five Circle.
In front of the castle, there was only a three hundred blades wide road connecting to the mountain foot, with valleys of hundreds of blades deep on both sides.
Deep valleys and secluded streams.
In such a place, five hundred spellcasters would be enough to withstand an attack from tens of thousands of people.
A true natural barrier.
Lide’s bat swarm swooped down, canceling the spell and reverting to human form after landing in front of the castle.
Looking at the thirty-blade-high wall built of sunken iron stone, he felt greatly relieved.
Although his current strength didn’t match the name of the Blood Clan Ancestor, the two hundred years of accumulation of the Blood Clan Ancestor was indeed a considerable fortune for Lide.
The walls above the castle were pitch dark, without any light.
The Bloodline were the Dark Night Goddess’ favorites, night vision was an innate talent, even clearer than during the day in the dark.
The secret sentries above became alert after detecting movement below.
“Who?!”
“No need to be tense, I’ve returned.”
Lide’s steady voice traveled far, causing the Bloodline above to immediately rejoice upon hearing it.
“Clan Leader.”
Lide’s form shifted again into bats, flying directly to the thirty-blade-high wall.
After Lide revealed himself, ten Bloodline on night duty surrounded him at once.
They respectfully placed a hand on their chests and bowed.
“Good night, Clan Leader.”
This branch of the Bloodline were all Lide’s blood descendants, akin to human descendants in a human family.
Bloodline couldn’t reproduce but could develop blood descendants through first embrace.
By injecting their own Bloodline into humans through fangs, they transformed humans into Bloodline.
This was the first embrace.
Each Bloodline could develop one first embrace annually, but each time would leave them weakened for a period.
In theory, the original body was transformed into the Blood Clan Ancestor two hundred years ago. Two hundred years of development should have resulted in more than two hundred blood descendants.
But after reviewing the Blood Clan Ancestor’s memory, Lide realized things were not that simple.
A hundred years ago, at the peak of its glory, the Bloodline had nearly three thousand members.
At that time, the Blood Clan Ancestor was level 14, close to breaking through to become a level 15 Advanced Mage.
But such a large number not only represented power but also enormous supplies.
Each Bloodline needed to feed at least once a month, which meant nearly three thousand civilians around the Far Mountain Range had to be hunted by the Bloodline each month.
The horrific death rate caused great terror in the villages and towns near Green City, also angering the most powerful force in Green City, the Extraordinary Mage Rock Hart, who was above the Great Mage, at level 20.
Three thousand Bloodline were besieged by Green City’s army, their other castle in the Far Mountain Range was breached, and only over a hundred clan members escaped in the end.
At that time, the extraordinary mage of Green City, Rock Hart, a powerful being who tamed magic, single-handedly slaughtered over a thousand Bloodline.
The fear still lingered in the hearts of the Bloodline.
In that battle, the Blood Clan Ancestor was severely wounded by the Extraordinary Mage, falling from level 14 to level 5, taking a full hundred years to heal.
It was that battle that made the Blood Clan Ancestor realize the prowess of the Extraordinary Mage, thus deciding to infiltrate Green City to study magic systematically.
After reviewing the Blood Clan Ancestor’s memories, Lide felt slightly heavy-hearted. The survival pressure on the Bloodline was far greater than he had imagined.
Bai Chuwei could almost see the goosebumps forming on Xu Xingchen’s skin out of shock and anger…
Suddenly, a strong hand seized her wrist and pulled her forcefully back.
Bai Chuwei was slightly surprised, as she was already pulled away from Xu Xingchen, standing under an umbrella.
Looking up, Duan Feihan, with an impassive face, said, “In the presence of so many, keep your distance from the male students.”
