Feeling the goodwill and benevolence radiating from Sutu Yan, Bai Li Hong Zhuang's initial nervousness eased. She looked up at Sutu Yan, who had always been handsome, and even though his appearance now showed signs of weathering, his charm was still palpable.
At this moment, Sutu Yan's smile was gentle and his gaze towards her was that of an elder looking at a beloved younger generation.
Seeing Sutu Yan like this, Bai Li Hong Zhuang's heart warmed.
Through Sutu Yan's gaze, she could sense his genuine acceptance of her, accepting her relationship with Emperor Beichen without any reluctance, but from the bottom of his heart.
"If it is possible, I naturally hope that the Sect Master's speculations are true," Bai Li Hong Zhuang smiled lightly. If she truly was the Sect Master's granddaughter, it would undoubtedly be great news. It meant that she had found her first relative in the Holy Profound Continent.
Seeing Bai Li Hong Zhuang's calm demeanor, the smile on Sutu Yan's lips widened. Among the young cultivators he had encountered, Bai Li Hong Zhuang was undoubtedly exceptional.
High talent, strong strength, humility, and courtesy in her demeanor, and a sense of tranquility and self-assuredness in her actions.
In Bai Li Hong Zhuang's clear eyes, he saw a fearless and determined heart.
As a cultivator, such steadfast conviction was undoubtedly crucial.
When he first saw Emperor Beichen's fearless martial arts spirit, he was overjoyed.
Only with such a heart could cultivators continue to advance on their cultivation path.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang grew up in such an environment from a young age, and the adversity she faced did not diminish her fighting spirit. Instead, it made her more resolute, which was truly rare.
In his eyes, few people would dislike a young person like Bai Li Hong Zhuang.
Because she was simply too outstanding.
"I hope you don't feel any pressure. We are doing this just to verify a conjecture. Regardless of the outcome, there's no need to worry."
Sutu Yan patted Bai Li Hong Zhuang's shoulder, and his benevolent smile carried a comforting power.
Whether Bai Li Hong Zhuang was his granddaughter or not, she was a junior he greatly admired.
Listening to Sutu Yan's words, Bai Li Hong Zhuang nodded with a smile. Her gaze shifted slightly, and she saw Emperor Beichen looking at her with a face full of joy.
This scene gave Bai Li Hong Zhuang a subtle illusion that they were indeed a family, a harmonious family.
"I understand," Bai Li Hong Zhuang responded.
"If you're ready, let's begin, shall we?"
Sutu Yan asked Bai Li Hong Zhuang, knowing that she must have been greatly shocked upon learning about this matter.
It seemed that Bai Li Hong Zhuang needed some time to adjust her mental state, and he didn't want her to feel pressured.
In fact, this matter was something he asked Bai Li Hong Zhuang for help with.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
The process of bloodline recognition was not complicated. When Emperor Beichen saw that Sutu Yan and Bai Li Hong Zhuang were ready to begin the bloodline recognition, he immediately left to prepare the necessary items.
Soon, Emperor Beichen returned, holding a smooth, black stone in his hand. It was the verification stone.
