The girls approached Xuefeng and Ling even entered his embrace, letting him wrap his arms around her. Ming was still busy with Sena who kept hugging her tightly.

The recording still played as the man let out a deep sigh.

"Anyway, I don’t want to bore you, so let me get straight to the point. I need your help. In return for my inheritance inside the three chests in the room, I wish you can fulfill my request. Before I say what I want, I’m giving you a choice to walk away. Naturally, you will have to leave the Cube behind. Touching my inheritance without permission will also trigger the Spirit to kick you out so I wouldn’t try it. If you agree to help me though, pour your blood onto the crystal. Take your time to consider."

Xuefeng rolled his eyes at the man’s proposal. He suffered so much just to get to the top of the Dragon Tower and he was supposed to leave with nothing? It wasn’t even an option for him.

"Is there a chance you know who that might be?" Xuefeng wondered as he turned to Ming but she shook her head.

"I don’t but he definitely belongs to the Ancient Race. If you look at those chests, you will spot weird engravings on the sides. It’s the language of the Ancient Race," Ming replied confidently. "No matter what he requests, I don’t think we can afford to reject him. We lost Titan Bloodline to get here so we need something in return."

She already gave up on moving Sena away as she was stuck to her like glue.

"Why does he need my blood though?" Xuefeng wondered cautiously.

"It’s the Ancient Race’s secret Art, a Blood Pact. Whenever two people had an agreement, they always signed a Blood Pact. If any party failed to deliver their promise, they would die from a curse. Since our two races hated each other, they didn’t want to swear on the Heavens so they invented their own method," Ming explained.

"Hah, as if the Heavenly Tribulation can do anything to me," Xuefeng laughed, not scared of Heavenly Lightning at all. He has been struck so much that he gained immunity to it.

Ming was quick to humble him with the reality.

"Don’t underestimate the power of Fate Kingdom. Heavenly Tribulation is the weakest form of attack that the Fate Kingdom has at its disposal. Did you already forget about the Heavenly Chains that split us apart? We were attacked because we kept challenging the Heavens and my Uncle wasn’t happy. They are not even the strongest and we couldn’t deal with them."

Ling and Sena listened curiously as she continued, "Just like my Uncle, the King of Heaven controls half of the Heavenly Power and can command it at wish. There is a reason why the Ancient Race left the Heaven and God Realm. They didn’t want to be controlled by the power they couldn’t defeat so they created the Ancient Realm which wasn’t regulated by the Fate Kingdom. Right now we are safe only because the Heavenly Gate is closed and his influence can’t reach us."

Ming paused as she looked worriedly at him.

"Now that you provoked him and Sena is here, we don’t have much time before he opens the Heavenly Gate and starts looking for us. Earlier he didn’t want to provoke my Uncle but now he has no choice but to confront us."

Xuefeng calmed down while taking a deep breath. She was right. Even though he could protect himself with the Elemental Bracelet, he didn’t have the power to protect his wives yet.

"How long do you think it will take him to target us?" Ling asked as she observed Sena. "It seems like everyone in the Fate Kingdom loves her. They won’t stop pressuring him till he brings her back safely."

Ming opened her mouth to speak but Sena cut her off, "He won’t come any time soon."

"Hmm?"

All three of them stared at her in wonder. She looked as if she was trying to get mad but she only looked cuter.

"I have been asking my father to find you for so many years that I already lost count. I really don’t know the real reason why he is keeping the Fate Kingdom closed and why he doesn’t want to search for you but I know one thing for sure." Sena paused before revealing.

"It doesn’t feel like I’m his daughter at all."

Seeing the change in their expressions, Sena immediately explained.

"My whole life I was treated like a trophy or a mascot, not like his own daughter. All the other kids spent time with their parents but we only ate dinners together whenever he wanted something from me. I knew he was just using me but I didn’t know what else to do nor did I have anywhere else to go. I wanted to leave and find you on my own but when I proposed it, father got so mad I couldn’t leave my room for a year..."

They could feel the pain in her voice but Sena shed no tears. She gripped onto Ming’s dress and reached out for Ling’s hand as she announced, "In the last minute I felt more love compared to my whole life. Thank you."

How could they not melt instantly?

"Aww, come here." Ming finally hugged her tightly on her own. "You are a really strong lady. I am sorry you had to go through this for so long."

"It’s okay Mom," Sena assured with a back rub. "If I was married to a man like my father I would leave too."

"Pfft!"

Xuefeng kept his cool this time while Ming snicked loudly.

"That’s right, he was not a good man for me," Ming stated as he gave Xuefeng a flirtatious glance.

"He will probably try to calm down the people by lying again but I doubt he can," Xuefeng pointed out as he returned to the topic, not trying to start another session of questions. "Either way, we don’t have much time."

He let go of Ling and extended his wrist above the stand, slashing it across. Blood spilled everywhere, turning the crystal crimson before all the blood was sucked inside.

"Good... So I guess there is still hope for our race..."
