The Canglan Sect boasts many beautiful sights, half of the Canglan Scenery belongs to the Canglan Sect.

This is a saying that circulates in the Canglan Domain; among the top ten beautiful sights of the Canglan Domain, five are located within the Canglan Sect.

For many ordinary disciples, joining the Canglan Sect and having the opportunity to bring family members to admire its scenery is enough bragging material in front of neighbors for years.

Canglan Spring!

One of the five great sights of the Canglan Sect, it is also the most frequented spot for tourists.

On regular days, aside from Inner Sect Disciples, those Outer Sect disciples wishing to bring friends or family to visit the Canglan Spring need to apply to the sect a month in advance.

However, this time, when Lin Chen appeared at the Canglan Spring with the Seventh Elder of the Flower Race, the entire area was empty, devoid of any other presence.

The disciples of the Canglan Sect, who were originally responsible for maintaining order, also retreated, leaving only a few pavilions and the gurgling, outward-flowing azure spring water.

The spring water in the Canglan Spring is formed from Canglan energy, not only is its color enchanting, but the contained Canglan energy releases into the mist, causing everyone who gets close to feel mentally relaxed.

“Canglan Spring truly lives up to its reputation.”

Teng Wangshan gave his evaluation after observing the Canglan Spring for a few moments, then turned his gaze to Lin Chen: “There’s no need to lead me to the next sight, I didn’t come here to admire the beautiful sights of the Canglan Sect.”

Lin Chen agreed from the side, saying it was merely the Sect Leader’s excuse, as this Elder from the Flower Race had come specifically for him.

“How much do you know about my Flower Race?”

“As a junior, I only know that your race is one of the ancient remnant races, referred to as the Upper Race along with three others. As for anything else, I am unaware.”

“The new Empress of the Moon Soul Race told you this, didn’t she?”

Only fellow ancient remnant races would call the Flower Race the Upper Race; in the outside world, they are mostly referred to simply as ancient remnant races, without such clear distinctions.

The relationship between Lin Chen and the new Moon Soul Race Empress is known throughout the forces of the Flame Dynasty to be extraordinary; otherwise, this new Empress would not have taken the race’s treasure to assist Lin Chen at the Ten Thousand Flames Sect.

Teng Wangshan did not press further, instead shifting the topic: “The Flower Race has a long history, since the founding of the race by the first Clan Leader, we have controlled all the flora under the heavens, standing resilient regardless of the changes in dynasties…”

Lin Chen listened quietly, believing that this Elder Teng had not come to tell him how powerful and glorious the Flower Race is, nor how deep its roots are. Such matters would naturally be known to him without the Elder’s explicit disclosure.

“Our race has been able to maintain such prosperity not only because of the protection of our ancestors but also due to our unique royal selection rules.”

Teng Wangshan looked at Lin Chen: “Unlike other races with royal families from a single lineage, our race does not operate in such a way. Any clan member who awakens the ancestral bloodline talent can become part of the royal family, and when they reach sufficient strength, they will become the Clan Leader.”

“The bloodline talent in our race has a three-generation transmission characteristic. If no one from the ancestors awakens, the two following generations will awaken the bloodline talent, which is why outsiders refer to our royal family as the Three-Generation Royal Family.”

Hearing this explanation from Elder Teng, Lin Chen suddenly realized that his mother-in-law must be either the first or second generation, while Senior Sister Jiang must be the second or third generation.

However, Lin Chen thought it should be the third generation because his mother-in-law chose to leave the Flower Race and elope for the sake of his father-in-law.

If her parents were just ordinary members of the Flower Race, even if she awakened the bloodline talent, her identity and status would rise, but her strength at the beginning would not be strong and she would certainly be restrained by these elders. Running away with his father-in-law would have been impossible.

Such a willful act requires both capital and confidence.

“The royal family changes every three generations because the talent of the third generation reaches its peak and they have the greatest opportunity to reach the realm of our ancestors. And the little princess now is the third generation; the talent test she underwent when returning to the race showed her bloodline talent to be the strongest in the past 10,000 years.”

Teng Wangshan gazed spiritedly at Lin Chen, who now understood the implication behind the elder’s words: Senior Sister Jiang is very important to the Flower Race, possessing the strongest bloodline talent in nearly ten thousand years.

“According to the rules of my Flower Race, it is impossible for members of the royal family with awakened strong bloodline talent to marry outsiders. When the Eldest Princess left the race to marry an outsider, it incited our race’s anger; it wasn’t until three years ago that the race accepted this reality. Do you know why?”

Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, his mind racing, especially after combining this information with what Elder Teng told him, he had a hypothesis in mind and spoke slowly: “It’s because Senior Sister Jiang’s bloodline talent is stronger than expected.”

“Correct, you are indeed very astute.”

Teng Wangshan nodded, for such long-established rules within the race to be broken is no easy feat; the true reason accepted by the clansmen and the elders is the little princess’s bloodline talent.

The Eldest Princess once married an outsider, who was no more than an insignificant martial artist, angering all the elders, who believed that her offspring would have historically weak bloodline talent.

However, when the little princess returned and her bloodline talent was tested, it shocked the entire Elder Council, marking it as the strongest in ten thousand years.
