"Niece Yin, you now know that my god is the real and great Immortal True God. I have an opportunity for you: I want you, Niece Yin, to be a sacrifice offered to my god!"

The color drained from Yin Susu's face. These words did not sound auspicious.

"Rest assured, Niece Yin. Being a sacrifice for my god is not what you imagine. You will be offered up alive!"

"Under the might of my god, you shall ascend to the heavens in broad daylight, transform into a divine being, and achieve eternal life and immortality."

"Why me? With Envoy Yang's strength, it shouldn't be hard to find beautiful and pure virgins to sacrifice to the Divine Spirits, right?"

Yin Susu was skeptical and somewhat puzzled.

"Does Niece Yin think just anyone is qualified to be offered up as a sacrifice?" Yang Xiao asked indifferently.

Yin Susu fell silent.

Yes. The God of Hongmeng isn't like those false divine spirits of the past—ethereal and insubstantial. He is a real Immortal True God. How could a sacrifice to Him be ordinary?

Could it be that I have some special quality?

Yin Susu's curiosity grew. She was confident in her beauty, but there were countless beauties in the world. With the strength of the Ming Sect, there must be something extraordinary about her for Yang Xiao to come to her personally.

"Having seen the God of Hongmeng, Niece Yin, you must understand that this is not the only world; there are countless worlds."

"Our world, it can be said, is very insignificant."

Yin Susu nodded slightly. It was normal for countless worlds to be born and destroyed with each breath of the God of Hongmeng.

"And in each world, there are some people favored by the world itself. In short, they bear a Heavenly Mandate and possess astonishing fortune."

"They might fall off a cliff only to find a secret martial arts scripture, and even encounter a beautiful woman who gives her heart to them. No matter what difficulties they face, they always turn peril into safety..."

A strange look filled Yin Susu's eyes. "Envoy Yang, don't tell me you think I'm one of those people who bear a Heavenly Mandate?"

"You indeed do not bear a Heavenly Mandate, but you can give birth to one who does."

"Give birth to one who bears a Heavenly Mandate?"

Yin Susu's gaze froze, her pretty face flushing slightly. "Are you saying... my future child?" she asked, surprised. "Is this a revelation from the Divine Spirit?"

She was still a pure virgin, not even having had a boyfriend, let alone a child. Yet, Yang Xiao had mentioned her future child. Other than a God's Revelation, she couldn't think of any other explanation.

"One could say so."

Yang Xiao had not received a God's Revelation; he learned of it from the video Wang Hao had given him.

"According to the original trajectory, after you obtained the Dragon-slaying Saber, you would have had the Dragon Gate Escort Agency send Yu Daiyan back to Wudang Mountain."

"Yu Daiyan would be ambushed and crippled on the way, and Zhang Cuishan would then leave the mountain to investigate the perpetrator."

"Because of the Dragon Gate Escort Agency's failure to protect him, you would exterminate their entire clan. Then, you would meet Zhang Cuishan and finally host a grand display of power with the saber on Wangpan Mountain."

"The Golden Hair Lion King Xie Xun would appear, snatch the Dragon-slaying Saber, and flee overseas with you and Zhang Cuishan..."

As Yang Xiao spoke, Yin Susu felt as though she was being drawn into a story. She realized that if Yang Xiao hadn't appeared, things might truly have unfolded that way. To live like a savage on Ice and Fire Island for ten years? Then, upon returning, to be compelled to commit suicide as a martyr for love? Her life truly would have been tragic. It was hard to comprehend her own current state of mind, accepting this so readily.

"Whether you are willing to be a sacrifice for the Upper God is for you to consider," Yang Xiao said.

"I am willing!"

Yin Susu pondered for only a few seconds before agreeing. Yang Xiao likely wouldn't deceive her about this. Offering herself up would bring great benefits, both to herself and to people like the White Brow Eagle King.

"Good."

Yang Xiao nodded slightly. "I will take the Dragon-slaying Saber. Niece Yin, you can take the 'Meditation Method' back to the Eagle King. I'm sure the Eagle King will make the right choice."

Originally, Yang Xiao had planned to take Yin Susu with him, but seeing how readily agreeable she was, he changed his mind.

"Rest assured, Envoy Yang. My father has always been concerned about the Ming Sect. It was only because of the incessant strife within the Ming Sect that he independently established the Heavenly Hawk Sect."

"Now that you have the strength to reorganize the Ming Sect, and with the Divine Spirit's favor, my father will surely be willing to return to the Ming Sect!" Yin Susu declared resolutely.

"Very well. I shall await the Eagle King and Niece Yin at Peak Light!"

Yang Xiao stood up, took the Dragon-slaying Saber, and floated away.

「Heavenly Hawk Sect Headquarters.」

"What? Yang Xiao took the Dragon-slaying Saber? Damn it! I'll go after him!" Yin Yewang exclaimed furiously upon hearing the news.

"Stop!"

An authoritative voice rang out as the White Brow Eagle King, Yin Tianzheng, emerged from the inner hall. "With your abilities?" he rebuked. "You think you can snatch the Dragon-slaying Saber back from Yang Xiao?"

"I..."

Yin Yewang felt indignant, but seeing Yin Tianzheng's stern gaze, the words of rebuttal died on his lips.

"Susu, what exactly happened?"

Yin Tianzheng turned to Yin Susu. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. According to his understanding, Yang Xiao, arrogant by nature, shouldn't have much interest in the Dragon-slaying Saber, especially not taking it from Yin Susu's hands. His first thought was that Yang Xiao's stated intentions were merely a pretext; his true target was likely him.

"Father, Big Brother, please recite this Divine Spirit scripture with me first. Then, I will explain everything to you!"

Yin Susu took out her handwritten copy of the "Meditation Method." Unless they saw it with their own eyes, neither Yin Tianzheng nor Yin Yewang would believe in such divine matters.

"Little Sister, this is hardly the time for this! You still believe in spirits?" Yin Yewang said with dissatisfaction, glancing at the "Meditation Method." "It's one thing if you believe on your own, but now you're trying to make Father and me chant with you? Don't be ridiculous!"

"Father, Big Brother, I have my reasons for doing this. Just recite it with me once, and then you will understand!"
