Chapter 370 Pulling Uesugi Yue into the camp
"Master Yue, I understand your anxiety and frustration, but now is not the time to be discouraged or depressed." Lu Mingfei whispered, "No matter what, you are their biological father. Gennoshi, Gennoshi, and Eri all have your blood flowing in their bodies. This is the inheritance of blood, an undeniable fact. You still have a way to make amends to your children... Only you can make them stop acknowledging the enemy as their father."
"Take the thief as your father?" Uesugi Yue was stunned and frowned slightly. "What do you mean?"
"The 'thief' I'm talking about... is Masamune Tachibana, who is respected as a father by Minamoto no Chisei." Lu Mingfei said in a deep voice.
"What's wrong with that guy named Tachibana Masamune?" Uesugi Yue was puzzled. "Is he treating my son badly? Or is there something wrong with his character?"
It would be nice if it could really be summed up in one sentence: a person has a problem with his character... Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei took a deep breath. The crimes committed by Tachibana Masamune, or Dr. Herzog, were truly innumerable. In comparison, the wrong things that Uesugi Yue had done when he was young could at best be regarded as "the behavior of a child who was willful and venting his anger after being deceived."
And if we really want to calculate one by one, Uesugi Yue, the old man in front of us, should be the one who was harmed the most by Herzo.
According to the development of the dream story, Uesugi Kotsu himself will die in the tide of corpses awakened by Herzog soon, and his two sons, Gennochisei and Gennochijo, are instigated and manipulated by Herzog to kill each other and die. His only daughter is deceived and desecrated by Herzog, and used as a container to filter the blood of the White King. In the end, her dried body dies in the lonely red well.
Even Lu Mingfei couldn't accept all this, let alone Uesugi Yue, the biological father of these three children. Lu Mingfei didn't dare to tell Uesugi Yue the whole truth now. It was too cruel. He was afraid that this old man with royal blood would be furious, carrying an ancient sword, and bursting with words to rush into the current Genji Heavy Industries Building to settle accounts with that bastard Herzog. If that happened, everything would be beyond the scope of Lu Mingfei's plan and it was definitely not what should happen now.
Therefore, Lu Mingfei had to selectively and specifically tell the old man part of the truth, in order to arouse Uesugi Yue's hatred towards Tachibana Masamune and make him prepared to be wary of Tachibana Masamune, but he also couldn't stimulate Uesugi Yue too much, so as not to turn the old man into a beast controlled by anger.
"It's true that Tachibana Masamune's character is questionable, but it's not something that can be summed up with a simple word like 'character'." Lu Mingfei sighed slowly. "It's too long to explain all this. We don't have enough time. And if I tell you part of it, you'll definitely keep asking me 'why'. I also have my concerns. If I tell you everything, Master Yue, it will be difficult for me to guarantee that my plan won't go astray. Our opponent is an ultimate conspirator, and scheming against a conspirator is a laborious task. If any part of my plan fails, it will be difficult to remedy the situation. The worst result is that we'll all be doomed."
Lu Mingfei spoke very frankly. Compared to Tachibana Masamune, Uesugi Yue was definitely not a bad guy. The old man was just a father who was worried about his children. If Lu Mingfei wanted to gain a father's trust, he had to be honest with him and appeal to his emotions as well as reason with him.
"I only want to know the part about my child. I won't delay your plan... I can swear!" Uesugi Yue said with an unprecedented serious tone, "You have come this far. If you stop abruptly, I will not give up... At least tell me everything you have to say!"
Uesugi Yue put his right index finger, middle finger and ring finger together, making a fairly standard Christian oath gesture. His tone was half urgent and half pleading... It seemed that the old man was irritated by Lu Mingfei's words "acknowledge a thief as your father". His heart felt like being crawled by countless red-hot ants, and his expression was full of anxiety and restlessness that could not be concealed.
Lu Mingfei stared intently into Uesugi Yue's eyes. After a brief silence, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and spoke in a compromising tone, "Alright, I can tell you the most important part. You have the right to know this. Since I'm looking for a partnership with you, I must offer you enough leverage. These leverages must either tempt you... or make you wary."
"But you have to promise not to do anything rash after I tell you something. It's best to continue selling ramen at your stall," Lu Mingfei said earnestly. "Don't get close to Genji Heavy Industries... and that man named Tachibana Masamune. Otherwise, even if I have to trouble Principal Ange, I will take strong measures against you, Master Yue."
Lu Mingfei was the only one in Japan who used such an order... or almost a threatening tone to address the former supreme ruler of the underworld, the half-blood emperor.
This was the result of Lu Mingfei's careful consideration. In fact, until just now when he was eating ramen, Lu Mingfei was still struggling over whether to tell the old man the news about Uesugi Yue's children and stop there, letting the old man sell his ramen honestly with a nervous and complicated mood until the day when everything is settled... or to tell Uesugi Yue as much truth as possible and drag this old man who has escaped disputes and fate for more than 60 years into the torrent of fate again.
What finally made Lu Mingfei make up his mind was not Uesugi Yue's oath, nor Uesugi Yue's own unparalleled fighting ability... but the old man's self-deprecating and humble monologue just now.
That was the purest and most passionate love a father has for his children. Uesugi Yue's self-blame, Uesugi Yue's uneasiness, Uesugi Yue's heartache... Those words were warm. Uesugi Yue opened up his heart and lungs, revealing the deepest and most true side of him that had been hidden for more than sixty years. Like boiling hot magma, even the coldest iceberg would melt after hearing such a humble monologue from a father. The same went for Lu Mingfei. He really couldn't refuse such a small plea from a father.
"Although Tachibana Masamune has raised your children to be good people, he doesn't actually treat them as his own children." Lu Mingfei slowly revealed Tachibana Masamune's true face. "On the contrary, he treats your children so well in order to gain their trust, place them in the most important positions in his plan, awaken their dormant ambitions, and then turn them into puppets that are easy for him to control. Your children will eventually become his pawns. When Tachibana Masamune's conspiracy is about to be realized, he will not hesitate to abandon all your children as abandoned pawns."
Uesugi Yue's eyes widened, not because of surprise, but because of anger. His eyes were like the eyes of a wide-open tiger, and his body was trembling slightly. As Lu Mingfei's narration went on, Uesugi Yue's body trembled more and more, as if he was angry at the man named Tachibana Masamune for taking advantage of his children.
Yes, there is probably no father in the world who would not feel angry when hearing that someone is taking advantage of his child. What's more, Uesugi Yue already felt that he had let his child down for so many years. His anger now was like a wildly growing vine, soaring exponentially.
"If things had continued as they were supposed to, all three of your children would have died. Minamoto no Chisei and Minamoto no Chijo were being used by Tachibana Masamune, each leading the two major Japanese underworld organizations, the Snake Eight Clan and the Oni Shu," Lu Mingfei whispered. "And that cunning man was hiding behind the scenes, ready to stage a scene of sibling feud when the time was right."
Uesugi Yue remained silent, anger rising in his voice. He took a deep breath to calm his burning anger and asked, "What about Eri? What will happen to Eri in the end? Will he kill her?"
"Eat her." Lu Mingfei also suppressed his anger and said, "Eryi will be eaten by that sinister and vicious man in the end... This is the only way I can describe it. It's the most appropriate adjective I can think of."

The porcelain bone wine glass in Uesugi Yue's hand was broken into pieces, not pieces of porcelain fragments, but powder like dust. Uesugi Yue slowly spread out his palm, and the wind outside the trolley blew, and the porcelain stone that was broken into dust was easily blown away.
"Masamune Tachibana... Masamune Tachibana..."
Uesugi Yue almost bit out the name with his teeth, and an extremely fierce aura burst out from his body, like an ancient real dragon poking its head out of the abyss.
This half-blood emperor who had been dormant for more than sixty years finally lost his patience after learning that his children had been deceived and exploited by villains, and revealed the hideous side of his ordinary appearance.
"Master Yue, I understand your hatred for Tachibana Masamune, because I harbor the same hatred for that damned man." Lu Mingfei said firmly, "Now that I'm here, I won't let this tragedy happen again. I promise you, fate has changed. Your three children will no longer be puppets at his mercy."
"Genjiro has been trying to resist that man since the beginning, but she suffered from his control over her consciousness. Genjiro obeyed that man's orders because of his faith and worship of him. As for Eri..." Lu Mingfei paused and took a deep breath. "I will definitely protect Eri with my life... I will! I promise!"
"I don't distrust you. I can see that your feelings for Eri are genuine." Uesugi Yue slowly shook his head. "But someone told me that my children are being deceived. Someone is dragging them, pulling them step by step into the abyss, but they are completely unaware of it. And I can only witness all this, indifferent, hiding here making ramen... How can I continue to do this with peace of mind? I will feel that every bowl of noodles I stretch out from now on will be mixed with the flesh and blood of those children!"
"So what I told you before, Master Yue, is that the situation where Minamoto no Chisheng treats Tachibana Masamune as his father and obeys his orders will end today." Lu Mingfei said to Uesugi Yue, "If things develop as I expected, after today, Minamoto no Chisheng should be able to completely recognize Tachibana Masamune's true nature and realize that he has been treating a thief as his father all these years."
"You keep saying 'before today' and 'until today'... What exactly happened today?" Uesugi Yue couldn't help but ask.
"A drastic change occurred at Genji Heavy Industries today. Tachibana Masamune raised a large number of snake-like deadpools underground at Genji Heavy Industries, and all of them were released by your youngest son, Genji Chijo, who infiltrated Genji Heavy Industries." Lu Mingfei said, "In short, today was a catastrophic disaster for the entire Snake Family."
Uesugi Yue's face changed drastically. He obviously didn't expect that such an unexpected disaster would break out in the family just a few streets away. On the one hand, he hated the man named Tachibana Masamune, and on the other hand, he couldn't help but worry about his sons who were in the catastrophe.
"What about those two guys?" Uesugi Yue couldn't help but ask Lu Mingfei, "I mean, are Zhisheng and Zhinu okay?"
"Don't worry, they should all be safe. Yuan Zhinv is very smart and won't do anything without confidence. Since he dared to release these Deadpools, it means he has the ability to escape safely from the Deadpool frenzy." Lu Mingfei said, "As the patriarch of the Eight Snake Families, Yuan Zhisheng will bear the brunt of all this, but my two senior brothers are also staying in the building. They are both very reliable guys. With the abilities of Yuan Zhisheng and my two senior brothers, we will definitely be able to get through this smoothly... Calculating the time, the crisis in the Genji Heavy Industries Building should have been successfully resolved by now."
Of course, Lu Mingfei was also worried about the safety of Caesar and Chu Zihang, but at the same time, he also trusted their abilities. Before entering Genji Heavy Industries, he repeatedly warned them that they must put their own lives first when encountering danger, and must retreat in time when encountering problems that cannot be solved... Although Caesar and Chu Zihang are usually eccentric, they should not be idiots who overestimate their own abilities and stick their heads out to be chopped off by others when the enemy attacks, right?
"What about Eri?" Uesugi Yue asked again, his tone full of worry, "Those two guys are fine, will Eri be in trouble?"
"If Eri is in trouble... could the thing I just brought here be a ghost?" Lu Mingfei looked at Uesugi Yue with a look of idiocy, "Master Yue, are you really suffering from Alzheimer's?"
Uesugi Yue shrank his head, his expression more embarrassed than ever before... Indeed, if Eri had really had an accident, how could she have come to his ramen stall to eat noodles with relish just now? He was really worried out of his mind.
"If nothing unexpected happens, my senior brother has already told Minamoto no Chisei the true identity of Tachibana Masamune. Minamoto no Chisei should already know that the accident that happened at Genji Heavy Industries today was caused by Tachibana Masamune. If things don't go smoothly, there should at least be an invisible rift between this 'father and son'."
Lu Mingfei gave a malicious smile.
"And if things go well enough, Minamoto no Chisei would probably be unable to restrain his desire to chop Tachibana Masamune's head off!"
Chapter 371 Borrowing Blood
"Chop off Tachibana Masamune's head?" Uesugi Yue was stunned. "Didn't you say that Minamoto no Chisei always looked up to and trusted Tachibana Masamune like a father? What on earth did you have your senior say to him that could cause a man to turn against even a father figure?"
"What I said was just adding fuel to the fire. The most important thing is the disaster that Genji Heavy Industries encountered today. The person who kept those Deadpools in the Genji Heavy Industries building was Tachibana Masamune. I don't need to remind you of this. It's undeniable that anyone can figure it out with just a little thought." Lu Mingfei said, "If Genji Zhisheng didn't even think of this, then he is too stupid. Or if he thought of this possibility but was unwilling to accept the fact, then there is no need for him to know the following content, because I can't let such a stupid and stubborn guy participate in my plan, otherwise he will only hinder me."
"And if Genjiro truly understood the truth about Tachibana Masamune raising Deadpool, he'd more or less have a momentary distrust of Tachibana Masamune, and cracks would appear in their close father-son relationship," Lu Mingfei said. "The most powerful way to break a solid relationship is to create a trust crisis between two people who trust each other. Once cracks begin to appear in a relationship, collapse is not far away... It's like a giant building infested with insects. Although nothing can be seen from the outside, the inside is already riddled with holes."
Uesugi Yue nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Lu Mingfei's words, and signaled Lu Mingfei to continue.
"The fact that Tachibana Masamune kept Deadpool is a fact he can't deny. Because of Deadpool's rebellion, many innocent people died overnight in the Snake Family. This incident has planted a seed of dissatisfaction in the heart of Minamoto Chisheng, the head of the family." Lu Mingfei said, "And what I have to do is make this seed take root, sprout, and eventually grow into a towering tree. Mere suspicion is not enough. I want to make the tall and majestic image of Tachibana Masamune in Minamoto Chisheng's heart collapse, leaving his treacherous villain face nowhere to hide. In the past, Minamoto Chisheng thought Tachibana Masamune was so perfect, but today he will feel how deeply he hates this man."
"Specifically?" Uesugi Yue couldn't help but ask, "How did you do it?"
"Three sentences." Lu Mingfei said.
"Three sentences?" Uesugi Yue frowned slightly.
"Yes, three sentences." Lu Mingfei held up three fingers. "All I did was have my senior pass on three sentences to Yuan Zhisheng. With the Deadpool incident as a prelude, Yuan Zhisheng, knowing these three sentences, will definitely confront Tachibana Masamune face to face... And the more Tachibana Masamune tries to clear himself of suspicion, the more sincerely he tries to tell Yuan Zhisheng as much truth as possible, the more he will push his position in Yuan Zhisheng's heart into the abyss step by step."
"My first words were to tell Minamoto no Chisei that Eiry is not Masamune's daughter... This is the most important sentence to me personally, and it's also the most powerful point that can expose Masamune's character." Lu Mingfei said as he snapped off one of his fingers. "Because Eiry is very important to both Minamoto no Chisei and me, I mentioned this, and Minamoto no Chisei will definitely raise this doubt with Masamune. But Masamune can't confess Eiry's true identity to Minamoto no Chisei. He can only lie and say that Eiry is his daughter, otherwise his lie will have an irreversible loophole. But whether Eiry and Masamune are related by blood can be confirmed at any time."
"If Minamoto Chisei was rational enough, he wouldn't have doubted what I said. He should have doubted Tachibana Masamune, who is full of lies and loopholes." Lu Mingfei followed up, "And if Minamoto Chisei still has doubts about me and subconsciously feels that Tachibana Masamune is the one he should trust, it doesn't matter. He can take Tachibana Masamune and Eri's blood for genetic testing. It won't be difficult for him to get blood samples from both of them... And if Minamoto Chisei really did that, when the truth is revealed, he will probably find it even harder to accept it."
"Yes, your logic is very clear." Uesugi Yue looked at Lu Mingfei in surprise.
"The second thing I asked my senior brother to tell Minamoto Chisheng was to reveal Tachibana Masamune's true identity to him," Lu Mingfei said slowly. "This is also the point that Minamoto Chisheng will find most difficult to accept. As much as Minamoto Chisheng loved and admired Tachibana Masamune before, after learning of this man's true identity hidden in the dark, he will become even more wary and disgusted with him."
"So that man named Tachibana Masamune...who is his real identity?" Uesugi Yue couldn't help but ask Lu Mingfei.
"Tachibana Masamune, he's truly an elusive man. Disguised, real, overt, covert, he has many identities," Lu Mingfei whispered. "For example, he's the current head of the Snake Family and the leader of the Ghost Clan. He claims to be an intelligence agent for the former Soviet KGB, but in reality he's the former chief genetics scientist... I told Minamoto Chisheng the only truth. It's up to him to figure out the authenticity of Tachibana Masamune's other identities. But for Minamoto Chisheng now, none of these identities are paramount. He only needs to recognize one thing... He needs to understand Tachibana Masamune's position."
Having said that, Lu Mingfei suddenly turned his head and stared into Uesugi Yue's eyes, as if the next words were told to Yuan Zhisheng and also to Uesugi Yue... Uesugi Yue looked at Lu Mingfei's extremely serious expression, and cooperated by holding his breath and waiting for the next words.
"The Eight Snake Families, the Demonic Clan, Kassel Academy, Genji, Principal Ange, and even your Master Yue... almost all the mixed-bloods gathered in Japan are looking for the one who wants to resurrect the 'God'. Some want to kill the 'God', some want to obtain the 'God's' legacy, and some want to become the 'God' themselves... I can't tell you, Master Yue, where the 'God' is hiding, but I can tell you who wants to resurrect the 'God'." Lu Mingfei said each word in a voice as calm as still water, "Tachibana Masamune... is the one who wants to resurrect the 'God'."
When Lu Mingfei said this, it was as if he had uncovered some dusty secret. The ramen stall fell into a long silence. The sounds of heavy rain, howling wind and swaying tree shadows outside the awning of the trolley seemed to be hidden and inaudible. In the end, only these words remained in the air, like a ghost, refusing to leave for a long time.
"So it was him... the man who turned Japan upside down," Uesugi Yue said darkly. "So this is his true purpose for faking his identity as the head of the Tachibana family and infiltrating the Snake Eight Clan? He gained control of the family's ultimate secrets and placed both the young man and the young girl in the most important positions of leadership in the Japanese underworld, provoking and alienating them, and bringing Japan to a state of chaos. And he took advantage of this chaos to carry out his plan without anyone's knowledge."
"It turns out he's after more than just the status of supreme leader of the Japanese underworld or the power of a leader of Japan's mixed-race race. This man's ambition is far greater than I imagined," Uesugi Yue said gravely. "He wants to resurrect an ultimate being like God... He's after something as vast as the world itself."
Lu Mingfei looked at Uesugi Yue with admiration.
This old man has been selling ramen here for more than sixty years and has been ignorant of the world for more than sixty years. It can be said that he should be completely unaware of the current situation in Japan. However, after the discussion between Principal Ange and Uesugi Yue, and a few reminders from Lu Mingfei, Uesugi Yue was able to tell Tachibana Masamune's ultimate goal at the first moment... This is enough to show that Uesugi Yue is by no means just a lustful old stud, nor is he as foolish and incompetent as he behaved during the more than ten years he stayed in the Snake Eight Families. These are just his appearances. The real Uesugi Yue is a half-blood emperor hidden under this mediocre appearance. He must also have a heart as shrewd as an emperor.
However, while Lu Mingfei admired Uesugi Yue, Uesugi Yue also looked at Lu Mingfei deeply with a hidden look.
If the man named Tachibana Masamune was a conspirator, then the young man named Lu Mingfei in front of Uesugi Yue was more like an upright strategist. All of Tachibana Masamune's cunning and tricks were exposed in front of him. Based on the disaster of Genji Heavy Industries today, he used only three sentences to shatter Minamoto no Chisei's ten-year trust in Tachibana Masamune.
Uesugi Yue had never seen such a young man before. Although he was only about twenty years old, he gave him the feeling of being as steady as an old man who had lived for hundreds of years. Uesugi Yue had only experienced a similar feeling from Ange in his prime. Ange wanted revenge on the dragon clan, but this young man seemed to have some kind of ambition that was more paranoid than that of a conspirator like Tachibana Masamune. Although he usually looked frivolous and talked nonsense, once his gentle and kind appearance was cut open, the lion-like heart hidden in his body would suddenly pounce out.
"What's the third sentence?" Uesugi Yue asked, "What's the third sentence you left for Minamoto no Chisei?"
"I know how devastated a person can be when their faith collapses and they're in despair. I can't turn Gen Chisheng into a dejected, decadent waste, not for someone like Tachibana Masamune," Lu Mingfei said. "If his faith collapses, I'll give him a new faith."
"So I ask my senior brother to tell Yuan Zhisheng that if he has doubts about this world and feels that there is no one in this world worthy of his trust, there is at least one person who is worthy of his trust." Lu Mingfei looked at Uesugi Yue with burning eyes.
"The person you are talking about...can't be..." Uesugi Yue was slightly stunned, and an unbelievable guess flashed through his mind.
"Yeah, I told him to try to find a ramen chef in Tokyo. The ramen chef's name is Uesugi Yue." Lu Mingfei looked at Uesugi Yue and smiled. "That's you, Master Yue."
"What?" Uesugi Yue was shocked. "You told my son my identity?"
"No, I didn't say it explicitly, but Tachibana Masamune should have told him. Even if Tachibana Masamune didn't say it, Gen Chisheng would probably be able to guess it." Lu Mingfei smiled, "So Master Yue, you don't have to worry about your son recognizing a thief as his father. When he really encounters an unsolvable dilemma, he should come to you... maybe in the near future."
"Will come to me...will come to me...my son will come to me..."
Uesugi Yue muttered absentmindedly, his expression becoming visibly stunned. Knowing that he had a son was already surprising enough for him. He hadn't prepared himself mentally to meet his son yet. Now Lu Mingfei told him that his son Yuan Zhisheng might come to see him soon. How could he not be terrified?
How should he face him? A father overwhelmed with joy and sorrow at the sudden discovery of his son? A former underworld boss who could offer him life advice? Or simply a ramen chef who could serve him a bowl of steaming hot noodles?
What should I say to him?
"Nice to meet you, Zhisheng. I'm your father." ... No, no, that's too stupid. Or "Zhisheng, I know you're going through a low point in your life right now, and it's not easy being the head of a family, but as long as you persevere through life's trials and tribulations, you'll eventually become a man even fate can't defeat." ... Damn, what's with this thick, chuunibaku-sensei vibe? I've never seen such a chuunibaku-sensei TV show, and I ultimately didn't become that kind of man, so why should I expect my son to be one?
Or should I just quietly serve him a bowl of ramen, discuss the taste of the ramen with him, ask about his recent life, just like a ramen chef would exchange normal pleasantries with any customer who frequents a ramen stall...? Is that enough?
"Okay, Master Yue, you don't have to be too nervous. I'm just telling you that Yuan Zhisheng might come to see you, and it's not today." Lu Mingfei gently patted Shangshan Yue's shoulder. "Besides, you are the father and he is the son. It should be Yuan Zhisheng who is nervous and hesitant about what to say after seeing you. How can a father be afraid of his own son, don't you think?"
"Anyway, Master Yue, you can take your time to think about these things after I leave. You have plenty of time." Lu Mingfei glanced at the sky. "But I don't have much time. The ten minutes agreed upon with Eri are more than half over, and I haven't discussed the most important matter with you, Master Yue."
Uesugi Yue took a deep breath, calming his anxiety over the possibility that his son might come looking for him. He turned to Lu Mingfei and asked, "What do you want to discuss with me?"
"I'll come to you alone soon. I want to borrow something from you, Master Yue." Lu Mingfei looked at Shangshan Yue and said in a low voice, "Borrowing this thing may cause you to fall into a period of weakness, but it shouldn't affect your health or your daily life."
Uesugi Yue was stunned for a moment, and asked with a puzzled look: "What do you want to borrow from me?"
"Blood." Lu Mingfei said surprisingly, "I want to borrow all the royal blood in your body, Master Yue."
Chapter 372: Recognition from Eri's Father
"My blood?" Uesugi Yue was stunned. "What do you want my blood for?"
As a super hybrid who inherited the bloodline of the White King and the last emperor of the hybrid race, Uesugi Yue certainly knew how precious his blood was. During World War II, just Uesugi Yue's genetic sample was enough to exchange with the German government for the most advanced genetic technology at the time and Germany's protection of the Eight Clans of Sheqi. Now that the hybrid emperor has disappeared, if even a small portion of Uesugi Yue's blood sample leaks out, it will be enough to be snatched up by the entire hybrid world, just like the meat of Tang Monk in "Journey to the West" that can make people immortal after eating a bite. Its value is absolutely precious.
But Lu Mingfei asked Shangsugi Yue for his blood, even all the royal blood in his body. Even though Shangsugi Yue knew that Lu Mingfei had talked to him so much from the bottom of his heart and should not be greedy for his blood, the crisis and chaos that might be caused by the leakage of his blood sample was too great. So even though Shangsugi Yue trusted Lu Mingfei, he had to act cautiously.
"Master Yue, I understand your concerns. Don't worry, your blood... not even a single cell of yours will fall into the hands of others." Lu Mingfei looked at Shangshan Yue and said solemnly, "I want your blood for... a blood transfusion."
"Exchange blood?" Uesugi Yue was even more confused. "Whose blood do you want to exchange? Who do you want to exchange my blood with? Gennosuke? Or Eri?"
As an emperor with royal blood, Uesugi Yue naturally saw the flaws in Eri's bloodline. As a child bred with his genes, Eri naturally inherited his strength, but did not inherit the stability of his bloodline. That's why the little girl always used writing instead of speaking. Because if the bloodline is too pure and the mental restraint is not enough, the language she speaks may be the complicated dragon script, which is a language with enormous power. Once Eri starts speaking, the nearby streets and pedestrians may suffer.
If the question was to transfer his own blood to Eri through a blood transfusion, Uesugi Yue would naturally be willing to do it. However, blood transfusion is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. The human body's blood production system will generally replace the entire body within two months. As a hybrid with strong self-healing ability, this time will be even shorter... Unless Uesugi Yue provides Eri with a blood transfusion every month, in the long run, Eri's bloodline problem will always be an unsolvable hidden danger.
And if he temporarily "lent" the blood in his body to Minamoto Chisheng through a blood transfusion, Uesugi Yue would not mind. The perfect royal blood would most likely replenish the integrity of Minamoto Chisheng's bloodline in a short period of time, and improve the strength of Minamoto Chisheng's bloodline and combat effectiveness. However, this method also had some drawbacks. That is, after the period of prosperity brought by the complete royal bloodline to the body ended, Minamoto Chisheng's body would most likely be left with sequelae and usher in a long period of weakness.
These are all the possibilities that Uesugi Yue can think of for the time being. He is the only remaining emperor in the world. Only children who inherit his bloodline can bear his brutal bloodline. Even if his bloodline flows into the hands of anyone else, it cannot be directly exchanged for blood, and most of it will be used for genetic research.
But Lu Mingfei's next words really shocked Uesugi Yue.
"No, I'm asking you for your blood, not to give it to Genjisheng, not to give it to Eri, and not to give it to Genjinu," Lu Mingfei said. "I need your blood myself... At a certain moment, I want all the blood in my body to be replaced with royal blood."
Lu Mingfei's expression and tone were very flat, giving people an unreasonable illusion - as if what he was discussing with Uesugi Yue was not a big deal like switching to royal blood, but a trivial matter like when he went to the hospital to draw blood, the nurse thought his blood vessels were too thin and couldn't pierce his vein correctly.
"Crazy! You're probably crazy! Otherwise you wouldn't say such a thing!" Shangshan Yue slammed the table and stood up. His reaction was more extreme than Lu Mingfei had imagined. "Do you know what you're talking about? What do you think royal blood is? Do you think blood transfusions are like donating blood for free on the street? Do you know that if even a quarter of a liter of my blood entered the body of an ordinary hybrid, the power contained in my bloodline would be enough to burst the blood vessels all over their body?"
It's not like no one has ever done such experiments before. The issue of bloodline has been an important research topic for hybrids since ancient times. Whether it's the Eight Clans of Sheqi or Germany, some have tried to use Uesugi Yue's precious bloodline to mass-produce super hybrids. Some have tried to inject Uesugi Yue's blood samples directly, while others have tried to dilute the blood and make it into a medicine before injecting it into the human body...but the results have all failed without exception, and the fate of those experimental subjects has been particularly tragic.
Therefore, Uesugi Yue never regarded his bloodline as a great treasure. On the contrary, he believed that the blood in his body was, to some extent, the source of cholera and disputes.
This was one of the curses left behind by the "God", just like the bones of the "God", it was something extremely ominous. Wherever there was royal blood, there would be war and bloodshed. As someone with royal blood, his very existence in this world was a sin... Because he was the emperor, and possessing a treasure was a crime, he had such a terrible life, and all those close to him met with a very bad end, and did not have a good end.
So when Lu Mingfei asked for Uesugi Yue's blood, Uesugi Yue's memories and nightmares that had been dormant for more than sixty years awakened again. He did not dislike Lu Mingfei as a young man, but he disliked the painful and unbearable memories. These nightmarish memories made him instinctively resist Lu Mingfei's request for the royal blood.
"I know, I know that ordinary hybrids can't withstand the power contained in your bloodline, Master Yue." Lu Mingfei looked at Shangshan Yue, his eyes meeting the anxious old man's with an extremely serious look. "But please rest assured, you are a super hybrid, and I am not an ordinary hybrid either. Your blood cannot kill me... I still have some confidence in my body."
Even after being injected with three tubes of ancient dragon serum in a row, his body and consciousness did not completely collapse, which showed that his tempered body was still quite strong.
And although he had never tried it, the experience in the dream story told Lu Mingfei that as long as he sold a quarter of his life to Lu Mingze, the little devil's consciousness would merge with his body and he would become a dragon with the enhanced state.
In other words, even the devil couldn't destroy his body. The royal blood inherited from the White King was like bursting the blood vessels all over his body. It was simply a fantasy... But Lu Mingfei had no way to explain this to Uesugi Yue.
"It's not a question of self-confidence, nor is it that I'm stingy and unwilling to lend my blood to you... You probably haven't understood the serious consequences of a blood transfusion." Uesugi Yue tried to persuade Lu Mingfei earnestly, "I've seen people die instantly after being injected with my blood, and I've also seen test subjects transformed into Deadpools after exchanging blood with me. Royal blood may be a good experimental material for those scientists with ulterior motives, but it's a deadly poison to any hybrid other than those with Royal blood!"
"Besides, you're not even a descendant of the White King. Your body might have some kind of resistance to my blood. The repulsive force of bloodline is very difficult to control, and the consequences might be even more terrifying than I just described!" Uesugi Yue slapped his thigh. "Also, I can see that you're interested in Eri, and Eri is interested in you too. I can't let my daughter be a widow! For this reason alone, I won't trade this blood with you no matter what. Just be honest and stay with Eri!"
"But the purpose of my blood transfusion was to protect Eri." Lu Mingfei spread his hands and said helplessly, "Didn't I say that Tachibana Masamune planned to eat Eri in the end? It was because that guy was attracted by Eri's bloodline and wanted to use Eri's body... to conduct some evil experiment... yes, an evil experiment."
