Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 252: It is not a big deal

Li Mao released a heavy breath after noticing the weird expression on everyone's faces, "Did any of you not notice why you are comfortable with a new Keeper that you just met? Like you have a feeling that you can trust the being even though you just met each other?" Li Mao tried to clarify further.

Gao Lan Mei tilter her head, "Mother, I know you are trying to explain everything clearly as much as you can. However, I still do not understand what the difference is." She expressed seriously.

Then added, "Honestly red eyes is not that unique to only Keepers. A wraith can change their eyes to red just like a demon from the Underworld. A pill helps someone do the same. What if someone will pretend to be a keeper to fool another?" Gao Lan Mei said trying to make point.

Gao Lan Mei did not mention more instances. She just wants to prove that it is not a big deal and it is not convenient to focus on the eye turning red. There must be something else to distinguishing a Keeper on a more convenient way.

Li Mao released a deep breath, "You have a point Mei'er, however, our eyes are different. The shade alone is the brightest crimson that cannot be compared to any being or creature. You know why?" Li Mao asked Gao Lan Mei then looked at the others who also do not have any idea what she is about to say.

Li Mao continued, "Because it represents blood. We are all made by the Divine Creator, but the gods have blessed us with the blood from the world beyond."

It is just so easy to just tell everyone that their eyes are not just read but also a tool for sacrifice in the time of great need, but she refrained from doing so.

There is no easy way to say that their eyes are supposed to be given away.

Li Mao continued, "Anyway, that is all I can tell. If you really want to know the difference, just cast a lineage spell, like this." Li Mao waved her hand toward Li Shao. Glittery smoke appeared on top of his head, that he tried to avoid as much as possible despite the certain fail.

Everyone waited for a while, then slowly Li Shao hair started turning into bright blue. With the man's eyes glaring at everyone it does not help with the appeal.

"Hmm That is strange" Li Mao uttered. "I thought your mother is one of us." She said with a frown.

Xi Ma suppressed his laugh by coughing lightly, "Madam Gao, perhaps, that is not the best spell for him. Let's try something else." He said advised after standing in front of Li Shao.

Li Shao worriedly asked, "What?! What did you do to me?!" he asked indignantly to no one as he continued to glare to everyone. His red eyes flashing sometimes because of annoyance.

Xi Ma ignored him and flicked his hand and to Li Shao's horror, almost all his clothes suddenly vanished. He is now left only with his pants.

"What is wrong with you people?!" Li Shao his face red with embarrassment. As he is currently tied up, there is no way for him to cover himself.

Xi Ma face shows mock innocence, "Accident. Accident." His smile saying otherwise. Out of nowhere, Xi Ma produced a long needle and poked Li Shao slightly on the chest, just deep enough to draw blood.

On Gao Lan Mei's part, she does not have any idea what happened next after Xi Ma stepped in as Wei Jiayi's back immediately stood in front of her blocking her entire view.

Since she can only hear what is going on, Gao Lan Mei tried to step away from Wei Jaiyi but the man continued to block her path. "Get out of my way." She said hissing under her breath.
