'The bloodline factor in the body was strong enough, which should have been a good thing, but it turned out to be a bad thing for these three people.' Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind. At this moment, he could not help but think, 'What is the reason?'

When he realized the problem, Chen Heng was already certain that there was something happening on the bodies of these three corpses that he did not know. It was even possible that it was some kind of special experimental method.

Under normal circumstances, a royal family with the bloodline of a primogenitor wouldn't appear so easily, let alone become a corpse. The three royal corpses before him were most likely not caused by nature. There should be some problems along the way. Considering the fact that the King's Council had attempted to attack Aili, Chen Heng could probably guess some of the issues.

However, mere guesses were useless. Fortunately, the three corpses sent by the King's Council were useful to Chen Heng. Although the bloodline rejection reaction occurred on the three corpses, it didn't have much effect on Chen Heng. He could slowly use them and digest them using his origin.

However, in terms of effect, there was still a gap between them and the real royal corpses. Therefore, Chen Heng could only use them reluctantly. In some ways, this also explained why the people from the King's Council were so generous. The fact that they could get three royal corpses at once meant they probably didn't lack similar corpses.

'If I can find their nest and obtain their secrets…' Chen Heng was very intrigued.

If he could sneak into the King's Council and obtain the resources that the King's Council had, wouldn't it be a good treasure trove for him? Although the corpses that died because of bloodline rejection couldn't unleash the greatest value of their bloodlines, they were still valuable to Chen Heng.

If sufficient, he wanted to fully awaken his primogenitor bloodline so he could be one step close to becoming a primogenitor. At the same time, as a scholar with good attainments in the bloodline field, Chen Heng was also very interested in the research area of the King's Council.

If possible, he even wanted to join in and cooperate with the King's Council members to research and see if they could find a way to solve the bloodline rejection and thus activate the bloodline faster.

'If that's the case, I'll have to revise my previous preparations.' This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind.

Previously, he was prepared to leverage the King's Council's power to take advantage of the situation before returning to the imperial capital and reporting it to his father. The news that the King's Council had attempted to murder the royal family would cause a huge uproar no matter where it was.

King Violet would personally hunt them down if he knew about it. By then, with the strength of the Violet Royal Family, no matter how powerful the King's Council was, there would be some trouble.

Nonetheless, Chen Heng did not forget his current status. He was the prince of the Violet Empire, and the Violet Empire behind him was his backing. Therefore, although he did want Aili to leave as soon as possible and not block the path before him, it was not a reason for him to believe in the King's Council.

After all, if he got closer to the King's Council and leaked the information about Aili and the others, the other party would have a grasp of his weakness, which they could use against him. At that time, if the King's Council spread the evidence of his collusion with them, how would Chen Heng get along with the Violet Royal Family?

Hence, from the start, Chen Heng wasn't prepared to abide by the rules. However, even if he wanted Aili to die, he was prepared to do it himself. So there was no need to leave any hidden dangers to himself.

However, he could change his mind now. He shouldn't have given the King's Council information about Aili. However, even if he had to do so, he had to be obscure, or else he would leave a weakness for others.

On the other hand, at the King's Council, Chen Heng was originally prepared to trick the Violet Royal family behind him into making a move. However, now that he thought about it, he would consider it again.

As this thought flashed through his mind, he turned around and looked at the three corpses before him. He could talk about the rest later. However, as of now, it was better to devour the benefits before him first.

He smiled, took large strides and walked towards the three corpses. Then, he silently stretched out his hand, and an invisible force shrouded the three corpses. The three corpses melted instantly, and their bodies shriveled. Then, new changes began appearing in this place, and a hazy force field gradually spread.

Time slowly passed. It was noon when the devouring began, but it was already evening by the time it ended.

Before the night falls, silver moonlight shone from the sky, shrouding the surroundings. The silver light flashed across the large laboratory and appeared. If one looked carefully, one could see many silver threads formed from the condensation of pure xenogeneic energy, densely packed and connected in this place like a huge cocoon.

After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared from the cocoon, forming a long shadow in the silver light. Then, light swirled, and Chen Heng's figure slowly broke free and appeared from the cocoon.

The clothes on his body had completely disappeared, turning into pieces and falling to the ground. However, the skin on his body was clearly revealed. If one looked carefully, one could see that Chen Heng's skin was covered with a layer of marks, like entangled scales.

The densely packed scales covered the surface of his skin, but strangely, it was not ugly. Instead, it was clear and beautiful, with a special sense of beauty that made people can't help but stare at it.

Even Chen Heng seemed to have gained a strange charm. Though his appearance was still the same as before, his facial features looked more exquisite. Besides, he seemed more relaxed, carrying an aura from the depths of his bloodline.

"It feels pretty good."

After recovering from the metamorphosis, Chen Heng felt for a moment and was quite satisfied with this metamorphosis. After devouring three corpses, although they were considered defective products to a certain extent, the effect was still present.

The three corpses increased Chen Heng by almost half of his strength. At this moment, the Silver Moon bloodline's concentration in his body increased almost by 5 percent. Although 5 percent didn't seem like much, it was a lot for an individual's body. Just 5 percent of the bloodline made Chen Heng's body undergo many new changes.

A hand slowly reached out and touched the outside world as if it was trying to grab something. Then, as Chen Heng clenched his arm, a long sword appeared in his hand out of thin air.

It was a silver longsword completely condensed from pure silver light, with strange power circulating within it. On the surface, it looked calm, without any trace of smoke or fire. However, the power contained within was terrifying and powerful, enough to terrify anyone who could feel its terror.

This weapon was completely condensed from his body's Silver Moon bloodline power. After the Silver Moon bloodline was further refined, Chen Heng could feel a unique power in his body.

It was a brand new power born from the Silver Moon bloodline. Its nature was different from magic power and also life energy. Instead, it was extremely strong but well hidden. One could do many things with this power.

Chen Heng's heart moved as the Silver Moon bloodline power in his body began to circulate. He instantly mobilized and applied it to his body.

Clang...

A crisp sound sounded through the area.

It was like the sound of clear water flowing on Chen Heng's body. There was also the faint sound of metal colliding. Pieces of silver scales spontaneously appeared, growing out of Chen Heng's skin.

Chen Heng returned to his senses, looked at the mirror on the side, and saw his current appearance. He looked exquisite, almost bewitching.

If Chen Heng's previous appearance looked handsome to a certain extent, this was even more so now. Under the blessing of the Silver Moon bloodline, the current him emitted an inexplicable temperament without the slightest flaw. He looked godlike with an inexplicable and unforgettable charm from every angle.

"It's becoming more and more strange." Looking at his current appearance, Chen Heng shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless.

To change his appearance so quickly should be a good thing many people yearned for. However, it would cause some bad effects once it went too far. This kind of change would not bring any benefits to Chen Heng. On the contrary, it was too eye-catching.

This world's power existed because of the bloodline. The changes to Chen Heng's current appearance were obviously due to the change in his bloodline. It would probably cause all kinds of speculations if others discovered it. For Chen Heng himself, it was also something of no gain. After all, he didn't need to find a woman.

Chen Heng casually found a piece of clothing to put on. As he walked out, a cool breeze blew from outside, making Chen Heng's spirit become a little clear. He looked at the bright moon in the sky.

He could sense the Silver Moon shining in the sky. It seemed to contain a huge power, making his mind clearer. The power in his body was also rising continuously and increasing. To a certain extent, his power would increase under the illumination of the Silver Moon's moonlight.

'The Silver Moon blood…' Chen Heng felt the increase in strength in his body. So many thoughts flashed through his mind as he slowly looked at the sky.

The legend of this world crossed his mind at this moment. According to the legend, the Silver Moon in the sky was the body of the Moon God and was also the common ancestor of the Violet Royal Family.

Therefore, it was precisely why anyone who had awakened the bloodline of the Violet Royal Family would enter an active state under the illumination of the Silver Moon's moonlight, causing their strength to become even stronger.

Chen Heng was thinking about the truth of this matter. The scene described in the legend might be real in this world. Even if the Silver Moon on the horizon was not the Moon God's body, it was probably related to the Moon God. There should be some sort of connection. He just didn't know how much they were related.

As this thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind, he silently turned around, preparing to leave. The laboratory had been silent for long enough. Chen Heng was also preparing to do something next. Otherwise, the days that followed would not be easy.

The next day, the sun shone and illuminated the area, looking bright and beautiful.

"How's the acquisition going?" Sitting in his office, Chen Heng carefully read the quarterly report and said softly.

"It's not bad." Beside him, Alice nodded and said, "The materials needed by His Highness are not in high demand on the market, and the prices are not too high, so it's easy to find them. Moreover, those things were useless to the people around. Hence, it's good for them to sell them to us. So everything is going well."

"That's great." Chen Heng nodded and said, "Seal those things in the inventory. Maybe I'll need them after a while."

"Understood." Alice nodded, hesitated for a moment, then said, "I wonder how many of these things Your Highness wants to buy?"

"The more, the better." After thinking for a moment, Chen Heng said, then, after thinking for a moment, he continued, "If you face any difficulties, you can come to me directly."

Some time ago, after Chen Heng came to his territory, he gave Alice and Charlie a mission, asking them to collect some materials. Charlie mainly bought all kinds of corpses. As for Alice, she collected various materials.

In general, Chen Heng did not have high requirements for them, and he did not expect them to buy anything that he thought was good. It was good enough as long as the things they collected met the most basic requirements.

Quality was important, but if the quantity reached a certain level, it could also cause qualitative change and achieve a great effect. However, judging from the current situation, there was still some problem in the current process.

Alice hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Before Your Highness left, His Majesty ordered a one-time payment of 50,000 Purple Coins for resettlement. Unfortunately, nearly half of the money was spent on the materials after such a long time. If this goes on, I'm afraid..."

"We've already spent nearly half of it?" Chen Heng looked calm. He didn't seem to be surprised by this at all. Everything was as he had expected.

However, of course, this was indeed the case. Purple Coins were the high-end currency of this world. They were made from a special material called Purple Gold and possessed extremely high value. A piece of Purple Gold with extremely high purity has extremely high use value, enough to forge a weapon for a king-level figure.

50,000 Purple Coins was considered a huge amount in this world. Although the Violet Royal Family was wealthy, they could only provide hundreds of Purple Coins a year to ordinary princes. Chen Heng could obtain so much in one go because he was King Violet's favorite.
