"Yes, you can, then you will die," said Grandma Meng as she tapped Lin Lin's forehead rather firmly.
"Oh grandma, it hurts to know. What's wrong with my question? I'm just curious to know," Lin Lin complained.
"If we want to kill someone with our blood, then we have to sacrifice our lives too. The risk of doing so is enormous. We can die after doing that, but we can live even if we don't live long," said grandmother Meng.
"Is that so, grandma?"
Lin Lin was a bit disappointed. Lin Lin thought she could kill someone by forcing her to drink her blood. Unfortunately, she couldn't.
"Don't be disappointed. Your grandparents know what you're thinking," said prime minister Liu.
Lin Lin chuckled shyly as she scratched the back of her neck that wasn't itchy.
"At least our blood can be used to humiliate someone," said Premier Liu, making Lin Lin's spirits rise.
"How's grandpa?" Lin Lin asked.
"Let that person drink 3 drops of your blood. People who drink it will feel itching all over their bodies without exception. Then after 5 minutes, that person will answer all the questions that are given to him honestly without any lies," explained Premier Liu.
Lin Lin's eyes immediately lit up when she heard prime minister Liu's explanation. Suddenly Lin Lin immediately felt lucky to have an ancient bloodline.
Lin Lin didn't bother to make poison anymore while her blood was already very useful. Lin Lin's heart fluttered because of this.
"Okay, grandpa, continue the story," said Lin Lin, who almost forgot her main goal of visiting her grandfather.
"When I was sworn in as prime minister, our family lived happily. Until one day, Liu Mei helped a man who was seriously injured at the border of the night forest. Liu Mei brought the man home and immediately treated him without informing us first," Premier Liu paused.
"It was only when Liu Mei finished treating him that she told us that she was helping a man. We know that it is General Su at this time," continued prime minister Liu.
"Our Liu Mei fell in love with the wrong person," said grandmother Meng.
"Liu Mei likes General Su after meeting and chatting with each other a few times. We initially didn't agree that she married General Su. But unfortunately, Liu Mei loves him very much. Therefore, we cannot stop her from marrying General Su," said prime minister Liu.
"A year after Liu Mei gave birth to Jin'er, that bastard brought home a lowly concubine," said grandmother Meng angrily.
"Liu Mei was devastated at the time, but she was trying to understand," Grandma Meng said again.
"There have been no more peaceful days for Liu Mei since the concubine was in General Su's residence. Then after 2 years, Jin'er was suddenly exposed to a poison that could only be treated using herbs in the night forest. That's why Liu Mei immediately went alone to the night forest," explained prime minister Liu.
Lin Lin's brows furrowed.
"Didn't dad stop, mom? Why did you even go alone? It's dangerous," said Lin Lin displeased.
"Back then, that man had already tried to stop Liu Mei. Unfortunately, Liu Mei was very stubborn. Thankfully Liu Mei came back with the herbs and a small wound. And Jin'er finally recovered from the poison," said Grandma Meng.
'This is really like a fairy tale with a happy ending', Lin Lin thought.
"After two months, we found out that Liu Mei was pregnant,"
Liu's words made Lin Lin tilt her head back to look at her grandfather.
"That's me?" Lin Lin asked.
"Yes, we were very happy at that time. But we were surprised when Liu Mei visited us and told us something when she was pregnant," said prime minister Liu.
"What's that?" asked Lin Lin as she tilted her head.
"Liu Mei said that she was exposed to an aphrodisiac poison while in the night forest to find herbs that could cure Jin'er's poison," Grandma Meng stopped her speech.
Lin Lin immediately glared at that. Lin Lin is not a fool who doesn't understand the gist of this story.
"G-Grandfather, please tell me that all of this is a lie,"
Even though Lin Lin knew, she tried to deny it.
Premier Liu shook his head slowly, "Liu Mei had that relationship with a masked man, and Liu Mei believes that the masked man should be your father," said Premier Liu, making Lin Lin feel like she was struck by lightning.
She didn't like all this truth. It could say that Lin Lin hated mysteries. She prefers to be frank than have to answer a lot of questions.
"Is that man responsible?" Lin Lin asked quietly.
"Of course, daughter, that man came on the day Liu Mei gave birth to you. The man said that he exchanged his baby's soul for the soul of a baby from the future. We were surprised to hear that. But we still believe in it. The man also said that he was unable to cure Liu Mei. He said his daughter would do it," said prime minister Liu.
Lin Lin's body stiffened hearing that. How could one possibly exchange souls? Unlike Lin Lin, who danced the soul into the first princess's body using herbs, exchanging souls was something that sounded impossible.
"Grandfather knows you must think it's impossible, right?" asked prime minister Liu making Lin Lin nod directly.
"At first, your grandparents who heard it were also shocked and didn't believe it. But the man explained that there was a forest on the Right Continent called the forbidden forest. There he acquired a forbidden technique that could exchange a person's soul for either another person or himself," explained Premier Liu.
Lin Lin started to think here and there. She was thinking about all the possibilities. And what she thinks about the most is the purpose of her life. When she arrives in this world, the most important thing is to survive and find a new purpose to live in the new world.
Lin Lin thought that her biological father was someone who lived on the Right Continent. The reason was that first, and her father was able to enter the forbidden forest, which was extremely dangerous for even high-level cultivators. Second, forbidden techniques cannot be used by just anyone because of the high risk of death when using them.
"That man explained that one day when Lin Lin turns 17, his original soul will return to his body. But…" Grandma Meng stopped her speech.
"But what, grandma?" Lin Lin asked curiously.
"But if the girl dies before the age of 17, her original soul will return to her original body," continued Grandma Meng.
