Chapter 1172: Chapter 1171: The Supreme Ancestor’s True Identity
General Qilin laughed heartily, seeming to be an extremely straightforward person!
He patted Lin Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This is General White Tiger, like your Supreme Ancestor, he is also a sworn brother. Quickly pay your respects to General White Tiger!"
"Junior Lin Fan, pays respects to General White Tiger!" Lin Fan hurriedly said with respect!
"Paying respects to General White Tiger!"
Nie Lei and the others also followed in saluting!
General White Tiger walked up to Lin Fan, waved his hand, and said: "Forget about these empty formalities, but how can you be sure that you are the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist?"
"White Tiger, this kid can perform the One-Finger Zen, which is the unique technique of the Sun and Moon Daoist!" General Qilin said.
"It’s been hundreds of years, who knows if the unique techniques of the Sun and Moon Divine People might have accidentally leaked out and been practiced by others?"
General White Tiger was very cautious, his gaze fixed on Lin Fan, eyes extremely sharp, putting pressure on Lin Fan!
"Kid, I’m asking you one last time, are you sure you are the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist? If you admit you’re wrong now, I can pretend nothing happened and let you go, but if you continue to lie, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" General White Tiger roared!
After hearing this, Lin Fan was not panicked, he stood tall, fearless, and said: "General White Tiger, I am indeed the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, without a doubt!"
"Since you say so, then I must verify!" General White Tiger said.
"How will the verification be done?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"The Sun and Moon Daoist once said, to practice One-Finger Zen, one needs to start training fingers arduously from a young age, and also to soak in medicinal pools for years to strengthen the body. Anyone who used the Sun and Moon Daoist’s method to soak would have the medicine blend into their blood, causing changes in their blood!"
"The Sun and Moon Daoist wrote this method as a prescription and only passed it to his descendants. Because of the amazing effect it has on the human body, he worried that it could be misused to create powerful beings, so he specifically instructed: if encountering danger, if the person is there, the prescription is there, if the person is not, the prescription must be destroyed!"
"If you are indeed the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, one probe will tell, follow me!"
With that, General White Tiger turned and walked down to the high platform!
Lin Fan followed, surprised to find that on the left side under the Gao Ta, there was a small round platform, and on this platform, an apparently mystical gemstone was placed!
The location of this gemstone was precisely the same as the one on the cave top, they must be related!
General White Tiger came to the gemstone and said: "Take out your blood and drop it onto the gemstone. If you are truly the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, the blood will be absorbed into the gemstone; if you’re lying, the blood will drip off the gemstone!"
"Alright!"
Lin Fan decisively bit his finger, then squeezed out a drop of blood onto the gemstone!
It was seen that this drop of blood did not roll off the gemstone. To Lin Fan’s surprise, the blood drop started spinning and emitting rays of blood-colored light!
Shortly afterwards, the blood drop spread like a water lily and eventually all absorbed into the gemstone!
Soon, the blood vanished, everything returned to calm!
Seeing this, General White Tiger’s expression froze, he suddenly exchanged a glance with General Qilin!
"Pay respects to Your Highness!"
Suddenly, General White Tiger and General Qilin knelt down on one knee on the ground!
This scene took Lin Fan by surprise!
Just a moment ago, the two super strong figures were intimidating, how could they suddenly be so humble, this was too shocking!
Lin Fan dared not presume, hastily reaching out to help General White Tiger and General Qilin up, saying: "Honored elders, please rise, such a grand gesture, I’m truly unworthy!"
"You are Your Highness, how could you be unworthy? This is proper! A moment ago my attitude was inappropriate, I hope Your Highness does not mind!" General White Tiger said!
"Wait! What’s this about Your Highness, how do I feel a bit puzzled?" Lin Fan was even more perplexed.
"You are the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, naturally Your Highness!" General Qilin said!
"Weren’t you brothers with the Sun and Moon Daoist? Even if I am his descendant, what is the relationship with being Your Highness?" Lin Fan asked.
General Qilin chuckled awkwardly and said: "Actually, I was deceiving Your Highness just a moment ago, but I only saw you perform the One-Finger Zen and dared not confirm your identity, hence this way of speaking, and bringing you to the Celestial Palace to let White Tiger test you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan’s face grew embarrassed. Thankfully, his identity was real; otherwise, he would truly have been played to death by these ancient figures!
Then, General White Tiger said: "Hundreds of years have passed, and the Sun and Moon Daoist warned his descendants to always bring up this matter after his death, thus Your Highness might not know; the Sun and Moon Daoist was the leader of us, this troop once set illustrious achievements for the king, slaying countless enemies, was also created by the Sun and Moon Daoist himself, you, as the leader’s descendant, naturally are Your Highness!"
"Back then, the Sun and Moon Daoist was the most trusted person beside the king, after the king passed away, the Daoist was exceedingly sad, we willing to forever guard the king, originally planned to be buried with the king, but the Daoist refused this proposal, suggesting us to establish here, which is the border of the land, to signify always guarding one’s beautiful country!"
"Moreover, the Daoist’s only disciple at that time, after we were buried, the master instructed to forever guard the mountaintop, keeping watch over this place, and ordered him to develop his family here, becoming a strong race, generation upon generation guarding this place!"
General White Tiger carefully explained!
After hearing this, Lin Fan’s expression changed, urgently asked: "Honored elder, do you know the name of the Sun and Moon Daoist’s disciple?"
"Hundreds of years have passed, the name is long forgotten, only know the Sun and Moon Daoist gave him the surname Miao!" General Qilin said.
Lin Fan was greatly shocked, surname Miao, according to General White Tiger’s words, the starting point is now the Miao Race, the family of Miao Qiaomei?
Lin Fan couldn’t help but turn to look, only to see Miao Qiaomei’s face also full of astonishment!
Unexpectedly, the Sun and Moon Daoist and the Miao Tribe were from the same lineage!
Then, Lin Fan smiled bitterly and said: "Honored elders, I’m afraid you’ve mistaken, indeed I am the descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, but not his biological descendant, so this title of Your Highness, I cannot accept?"
"Not biological descendant? This cannot be?"
General White Tiger and General Qilin exchanged a glance, both seeing a trace of doubt in the other’s eyes!
General White Tiger said: "If not biological descendant, then why did the blood flash with light just now? This doesn’t make sense!"
"White Tiger elder, what do you mean by this?" Lin Fan furrowed his brow, full of confusion, immediately asked.
