Chapter 219 - 164: Bloodline Wizards

...

...

"Lord, wait a moment,"

Xue Rui hurriedly caught up with Luo De, her face full of worry,

"Please allow me to return to the tribe for a trip."

She didn’t want to disturb Luo De, but she was too worried about the tribe’s situation.

Luo De turned around upon hearing the shout, frowning and asked, "What happened?"

Xue Rui caught her breath, her long ears twitching nervously: "Something unexpected just happened in the tribe, and I want to go back to deal with it."

Luo De looked at Xue Rui, waiting for her to continue.

"A tribesman just came to tell me, while two children were playing, one accidentally injured the other severely."

"Children playing, severely injured?"

Luo De frowned deeply, puzzled, "Aren’t you Snow Rabbit People known for loving peace? How could playing result in a serious injury?"

He recalled the first time he met Xue Rui and her fellow tribesmen, they had fled here out of fear of the Bloodscale Tribe, avoiding war.

Now, two children playing could result in a serious injury?

It was hard for Luo De to understand.

"Lord, there’s some misunderstanding!"

Xue Rui hurriedly explained, "They were originally just playing together, but things got a bit heated, Fernie suddenly got a little excited, and then..."

Xue Rui hesitated for a moment before continuing, "The tribesman said that Fernie summoned a ground spike that directly pierced the other child Riva’s shoulder."

"Hmm?"

Luo De’s eyes brightened with surprise, "Summoned a ground spike? What ground spike?"

"A ground spike that suddenly emerged from the ground."

Xue Rui said, even gesturing with her hand.

"Isn’t that a spell?"

Luo De stared at Xue Rui, pressing, "Has anyone else in your tribe ever summoned ground spikes? Or do other Snow Rabbit People cast spells?"

"We do have some talent for making the soil cohesive, as you know."

Xue Rui shook her head, giving a bitter smile, "But we don’t know any spells. If the Snow Rabbit People had such strong abilities, we wouldn’t be chased around by the Bloodscale Tribe..."

"There are stories of powerful Spellcasters in our tribe, but they’re as ancient as the legends of the Human Empire..."

Luo De nodded slightly, understanding Xue Rui’s point.

And if that’s the case, Luo De couldn’t help connecting it to his Breeding Lord entry.

If the awakening happened at this time, it can only be the result of the entry’s mutation ability.

So, even Snow Rabbit People are considered breeding creatures?

But indeed, Snow Rabbit People are certainly not human.

A mutation after birth should belong to the positive mutation of Magical Beasts.

Similar to a regression to ancestors.

Aiming towards the strong gifted Spellcaster that Xue Rui spoke of, an awakening in the direction of the Warlock.

Warlocks rely primarily on bloodline and talent for spellcasting, well known among Alien Races, but rare among humans.

Wizards refer to them as Bloodline Wizards.

Besides meditation, they depend more on bloodline awakening and purification.

The effect of the Breeding entry might unexpectedly awaken some Snow Rabbit People with bloodline inheritance.

It seems that as long as it’s not pure human, it falls under the Breeding Lord’s entry.

Luo De’s mouth slightly curved up, but he quickly regained his seriousness.

He still needs to find out exactly what’s going on.

"How about the other child’s injury?"

Xue Rui nervously wrung her hands: "The situation is okay, your subordinate Jess used the soldier’s medical kit to treat Riva."

The Earth Ear Race is now residing in the Black Stone Mountain Range, mining by digging tunnels.

"It’s just that the tribe doesn’t know how to deal with Fernie, after all, she’s just a child and didn’t do it on purpose..."

Deal with?

Luo De certainly couldn’t let them handle it themselves.

"How about this,"

Luo De instructed, "Take Luna, and I’ll go back with you to take a look."

Xue Rui was taken aback, full of surprise,

"Lord, are you going too?"

"This is just a small matter, you don’t need to personally go..."

Luo De raised his hand to interrupt Xue Rui’s words, "You are now residents of Black Pine Ridge, and you’re under my management. Any incidents of bloodshed in the territory should be handled by me."

Luo De spoke righteously.

Actually, Luo De just wanted to see the Fernie who summoned the ground spike.

Otherwise he wouldn’t have bothered with a small incident that didn’t even result in a fatality.

At this time, Xue Rui realized as well that it’s no longer the simple tribal era.

The Earth Ear Race, now eating Luo De’s grain and living on Luo De’s land, naturally had to listen to Luo De.

And from Luo De’s words, it seemed he wanted to personally take people to treat the children in the tribe.

Xue Rui nodded respectfully, "Thank you for your concern, then I’ll trouble you."

"Alright, then go prepare."

Luo De arranged, "We’ll meet at the town gate later."

"Okay, Lord."

Xue Rui replied, bowing, then quickly withdrew.

Luo De instructed the Guard to notify Luna, and Lawrence to prepare the horses.

Luo De certainly couldn’t be expected to go on foot.

But when Xue Rui saw the horse, her face was full of embarrassment.

Xue Rui had never ridden a horse in her life.

Luo De noticed Xue Rui’s predicament and invited her to ride with him.

It was Xue Rui’s first time, and she nervously held the reins, not daring to relax.

Luo De was anxious to find out what was going on with Fernie.

Disregarding that it was Xue Rui’s first time, he rode wildly, galloping straight to Black Stone Stronghold.

Xue Rui jolted with fright, like a frightened rabbit, eventually curling up in Luo De’s arms.

Riding nonstop, by the time they reached Black Stone Stronghold, Xue Rui was weak in the legs, clutching Luo De’s clothes until she dismounted.

In the Snow Rabbit Race, Xue Rui holds considerable prestige as an elder.
