Splitting the Blood

Liu Xiaolan saw that everyone was about to go home and she quickly stopped them, turning her attention towards Ren Xipeng.

"Elder Ren, is there a way to completely split my relationship with Liu family so in the future they can't bother me anymore?"

Ren Xipeng looked at her and hesitated whenever or not to speak.

In his own opinion, Liu Xiaolan has nothing to do with the Liu family anymore from the day they have split their family tree and she has created her own household, marrying Mu Yuchen.

However, it's true that she still has their blood inside of her. Although it doesn't matter to him, it seems that the Liu family wants to keep holding onto her using this fact…

But should he really speak about splitting the blood?

Liu Xiaolan noticed that Elder Ren was hesitant to speak and she said, "It's alright, Elder Ren. Just tell me it there is any way…"

"Girl Liu, it's not that I don't want to help you, but the only thing I can think of is the ceremony of splitting the blood. But that hasn't been done for decades now…"

Liu Xiaolan thought about it but she couldn't find any informations about this ceremony in her mind. Seeing her puzzled look, Elder Ren explained, "Splitting the blood was a ceremony used long ago when families separated. Since a person wanted to leave their family, they should change the blood inside their body…"

Liu Xiaolan still didn't understand what he was talking about, but it seems that Mu Yuchen already knew what Elder Ren was pointing at.

His hold on Liu Xiaolan's hand tightened and he quickly said, "My lady, you can't do this. Let me just take care of the Liu family, I'll make sure they won't trouble the lady anymore, okay?"

Grandma Liu heard what they were talking about and shouted, "Ren Xipeng, you've heard her, it was her own idea to do this!"

"I won't agree to the splitting if she doesn't get out at least 3 ounces of blood…"

If Liu Xiaolan now still didn't understand what splitting the blood meant, then she would be stupid. But she really couldn't help but pity the original owner of this body.

3 ounces of blood? Aside from the fact that it's a weird way to calculate the amount of blood, but aren't 3 ounces almost a liter of blood? An adult woman in modern times wouldn't be able to lose so much blood at once, much less a child like her…

Are they really wishing to get her killed so much?

Elder Ren wasn't stupid and could tell what Yan Rusheng wanted to do. He said, "3 ounces? Why don't you just tell her to die instead? Nobody said how much blood one needs to split in order to complete the ceremony…"

Mu Yuchen also looked at the Liu family, his eyes containing his murderous energy. If not for the fact that his lady was holding his hands, they would already roll far away if it was up to him…

Liu Xiaolan sighed and looked at him, "Little fool, it's alright. I'm not an idiot to split 3 ounces of blood, but I still want to go through the ceremony…"

Mu Yuchen had a look of worry on his face and wanted to change her mind, but she stopped him from speaking. "I'll be fine, it's just a little blood…"

Ren Xipeng looked at her and asked, "Girl, are you sure about this? Once you split your blood, there's no way to reverse it…"

Liu Xiaolan nodded.

Although for her the methods of ancient people were stupid, if she could get rid of the Liu family, Liu Xiaolan felt that it was worth it. At least in the future her life will be much more peaceful, and she won't need to worry what crazy thing they will think of next time…

Liu Xiaolan send the unwilling little fool to their home to bring back a sharp knife. Once everything was ready, she cut herself on the palm of her hand and squeezed some blood out.

It might not hurt as if she was losing her life, but the place where she was cut was prickling her a little.

Soon, the ceremony was done. Grandma Liu felt unsatisfied and wanted to argue that Liu Xiaolan hasn't exchanged enough blood, but when she noticed Mu Yuchen looking towards her she quickly closed her mouth.

Mu Yuchen looked at her with a gaze that was clearly telling her, speak one more word and I'll kill you. Too scary…

Once everything was done, Mu Yuchen picked up Liu Xiaolan in a princess hug and run back to their home, leaving everyone else astounded.

Elder Ren looked at them and sighed. "Yan Rusheng and the rest of people from Liu family, the ceremony of splitting blood was done. I'll write it off in the official documents later, if anyone of you dares to come close to girl Liu another time, I'll personally kick you out of Liuojia Village, understood?"

Where would Grandma Liu agree with him? However, Shen Meijing stopped her from speaking. "Elder Ren, we understand. Next time we see Liu Xiaolan we'll keep our distance from her…"

Shen Meijing cursed under her nose, what a joke. Now that even the splitting of blood was done, what else is connecting them with Liu Xiaolan?

With the way the villagers already looked at their Liu family, wouldn't they straight up chase them out of the village if they made any more trouble?

"You better remember your words, Madam Shen." Ren Xipeng said before turning around and going back home.

Today was a tiring day for him, he should quickly go back and prepare the official note. Right now he was even a little confused, both wanting the Liu family to stay peaceful and at the same time he'd like them to make some trouble.

It would be good if they didn't make any trouble anymore, but it would be even better if he could just kick them out. Sigh…
