The Grand State Master sensed Sheng Xiao’s spiritual power early on. When Sheng Xiao arrived at the Divination Tower, Lin Feng, the attendant beside the Grand State Master, was already waiting outside the tower.
When he saw Sheng Xiao, Lin Feng straightened his sleeves and took a step forward. He stood in front of Sheng Xiao and said with a smile, “I was wondering who came to visit. The Grand State Master sent me to welcome you personally. So it’s Young Master Sheng.”
Lin Feng looked behind Sheng Xiao and confirmed that Sheng Xiao had come alone. He said in surprise, “Miss Ah Huang and Young Master Sheng have always been inseparable. Why is Young Master Sheng here alone today?”
Sheng Xiao had met Lin Feng a few times and was considered an acquaintance. He said bluntly, “Ah Huang isn’t feeling well. She’s resting at home. I have something to discuss with the Grand State Master.”
When he heard that Yu Huang wasn’t feeling well, Lin Feng’s eyes darted around and he asked, “Could it be that Miss Ah Huang is pregnant?”
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
They had been married for a few months. It wasn’t surprising if she was pregnant.
Sheng Xiao’s ears turned red when he thought of the lovemaking last night.
Seeing that Young Master Sheng was bashful, Lin Feng thought that he had guessed the truth. “Is she really pregnant? Congratulations, Young Master Sheng!”
Seeing that the misunderstanding was getting worse, Sheng Xiao quickly explained, “She’s not pregnant. She used the Eye of All Things, so she’s mentally exhausted. She’s resting at home.”
“… So that’s how it is.” Lin Feng felt a little regretful. He thought that the Grand State Master would become a god grandfather after Miss Ah Huang and Young Master Sheng had a child so quickly.
After knowing that Yu Huang had used the Eye of All Things, Lin Feng guessed that Sheng Xiao had something to discuss with the Grand State Master. Lin Feng didn’t dare to waste any time. He quickly turned around and brought Sheng Xiao into the Divination Tower.
The Divination Tower had been built a thousand years ago. The facilities inside were very retro, and there was no elevator. They had to climb the tower on foot along the wooden stairs.
When Sheng Xiao saw the Grand State Master, he was about to eat lunch.
There were four dishes on the dining table, two meat and two vegetables. They looked exquisite and delicious.
The Grand State Master had yet to eat. When he saw Sheng Xiao, he pointed at the empty seat at the dining table and said to Sheng Xiao, “Sit down and talk while eating.” The Grand State Master looked like a person who was difficult to get close to, but he liked to chat with others during dinner. That made him more hungry.
Sheng Xiao didn’t treat the Grand State Master as an outsider. He walked over and sat down. He picked up a piece of crispy bamboo shoot with his chopsticks and tasted it. In the Divine Moon Empire, the bamboo shoot was past season, but this bamboo shoot was fresh and delicious. It must have been flown over from the Light Sea.
Sheng Xiao took two more bites and put down his chopsticks. He went straight to the point. “Yu Huang saw the future through the Eye of All Things. She fell asleep because she was mentally exhausted. She asked me to send a message to the Grand State Master.”
The Grand State Master waved his hand and said, “Let me guess.”
Sheng Xiao said humbly, “Go ahead.”
The Grand State Master said, “I’ve been divining frequently recently to predict the outcome of the final battle in two months. I discovered that there was an additional variable. However, my abilities are limited, and I can’t predict who that variable is. I guess Ah Huang must have seen that variable.”
Sheng Xiao smiled. “The Grand State Master’s analysis might be right.”
The Grand State Master nodded and glanced at Lin Feng with a suggestive gaze.
Lin Feng could easily read the Grand State Master’s gaze.
He immediately left the dining room and called all the servants on the top floor downstairs so that he wouldn’t disturb the Grand State Master and Sheng Xiao’s conversation.
The Grand State Master was still worried. He built another soundproof wall outside the dining room and said to Sheng Xiao, “Whatmessage did Ah Huang ask you to send?”
Sheng Xiao told the Grand State Master Yu Huang’s instructions. “You must do your best to protect Anna! In the battle two months later, Anna will be the key to turning the situation around!”
A puzzled expression appeared on the Grand State Master’s handsome face. “Anna?” The Grand State Master asked uncertainly, “Anna? Dean Di’s disciple?”
The Grand State Master didn’t have a deep impression of Anna. He only knew that Di Ruofeng had accepted a little girl who loved to wear dresses two years ago.
Sheng Xiao nodded. “Yes.”
The Grand State Master had been in seclusion for the past few days, so he really didn’t know what had happened to Anna.
Seeing that the Grand State Master didn’t know, Sheng Xiao told him what had happened to Anna.
The Grand State Master’s expression turned serious. “If it’s really as you said, and this girl called Anna has indeed awakened a Mutated Devouring Beast with demonic nature, then no matter for what reason she awakened her demonic nature, as long as her demonic nature is awakened, it can’t be suppressed or removed.”
“However, there are many fence sitters in the cultivation world. These people are extremely gullible. They have always only cared about the results and not the process. They don’t care if Anna is possessed by Su Xuanye. They only care if Anna will hurt them after she becomes a demon.”
“As long as one person sings the demon-slaying command, tens of millions of people will follow.” The Grand State Master said with a cold expression, “Because this is human nature.”

Back then, wasn’t it the same when the six families of the Divine Moon Empire surrounded Su Tingxue?
As the young master of the Sheng family, Sheng Xiao knew that sometimes, human nature was magnificent, but sometimes, it was stupid. “Now, Xuanyuan Shen is calling for all the Beast Tamers on the continent to fight against the demonic cultivators. Even if Anna hides in the primitive forest, she will still be in danger. Grand State Master, if you trust Yu Huang, please protect Anna as much as possible.”
The Grand State Master pondered for a moment and sighed. “I’ve lived for more than a thousand years. It’s been a long time since I’ve done anything rash. This time, I’ll make an exception.”
Sheng Xiao knew that the Grand State Master agreed.
Sheng Xiao didn’t stay any longer. He got up and left.
When he returned to the Lovers Lake, Yu Huang was still unconscious. However, she looked calm after she fell asleep. Sheng Xiao couldn’t bear to wake her up, so he let her continue sleeping. As the date of the final battle neared, it wouldn’t be easy to sleep soundly in the future.

On the other side, although Anna and the Icy Night T-Rex successfully hid in the primitive forest, the trend of suppressing demonic cultivators in the cultivation world didn’t stop. Instead, it became more and more intense.
Xuanyuan Shen stood on the high platform of the Xuanyuan Clan’s martial arts arena and indignantly expressed his hatred for fiendish cultivators and his strong desire to suppress them.
“History has proven that generations of demonic cultivators have slaughtered the innocent and are inhumane. No matter what kind of personality Anna had in the past, from the moment she awakened her demonic nature and devoured the spiritual power of three guest elders of the Xuanyuan Clan, she became the common enemy of the entire cultivation world!”
“Everyone is responsible for bringing a demonic cultivator to justice! Everyone, I suggest that we unite and approach the forest together to force those demon beasts to hand Anna over!”
Below the stage, there were more than a hundred beast tamers who had come from afar. They all hated fiendish cultivators to the core. Under Xuanyuan Shen’s encouragement, the viciousness in these people’s hearts was aroused. They raised their hands and shouted loudly, “Everyone is responsible for killing fiendish cultivators!”
Yu Huang watched this scene from afar and couldn’t help but feel a chill run down her spine. She wondered if they were also so excited when Su Tingxue was jointly besieged by the six families.
Xuanyuan Shen sensed Yu Huang’s spiritual energy fluctuations and immediately raised his head to look at a thousand-year-old ancient tree of the Xuanyuan Clan. “Young Patriarch Yin, since you’re here, why hide behind the tree and refuse to show yourself?”
Young Patriarch Yin?
Yu Huang?
Seeing that Xuanyuan Shen had discovered her, Yu Huang no longer hid. She flew out from behind the tree with Ji Linyuan and landed on the high platform where Xuanyuan Shen was standing.
Today, Yu Huang was wearing a red dress and a pair of black combat boots. Her black hair was casually tied into a high ponytail, revealing her plump and smooth forehead, making her look sharp and heroic.
When he saw Yu Huang, Xuanyuan Jing’s gaze flickered and he lowered his head, not daring to look at her directly.
The current Yu Huang had already grown up and become the most dazzling person in the Holy Spirit Continent. The more dazzling Yu Huang was, the more Xuanyuan Jing realized how short-sighted he was and how muddle-headed he was when he was young and frivolous.
The current him was no longer qualified to be compared to Yu Huang.
In the entire Holy Spirit Continent, the person who could fight alongside Yu Huang had already become her husband.
Yu Huang didn’t notice Xuanyuan Jing’s existence at all. The current her was already stronger than Xuanyuan Jing. When she was strong enough, those who had hurt and humiliated her before would become insignificant ants to her.
Since he was an ant, why look at him?
“Young Patriarch Yin, Mr. Linyuan, are you coming with us to suppress that fiendish cultivator?”
At this point, Xuanyuan Shen even specially explained to the beast tamers below the stage, “Demonic Cultivator Anna was previously good friends with Young Patriarch Yin. After knowing that Anna had become a demonic cultivator, Young Patriarch Yin was willing to take the initiative to stand up and suppress the demonic cultivator Anna with us. It can be seen that her heart is filled with righteousness and justice. She is truly admirable!”
Yu Huang thought with ridicule, “Yeah right!”
“I didn’t come here today to subdue the demon with everyone.” Yu Huang denied Xuanyuan Shen’s words on the spot.
Xuanyuan Shen’s expression changed slightly when he heard this. The beast tamers below the stage also started to talk—

“What does Young Patriarch Yin mean? Is she not planning to deal with the fiendish cultivator with us?”
“However, Young Patriarch Yin and the fiendish cultivator Anna were friends after all. It’s understandable that she couldn’t do it herself.”
Xuanyuan Shen heard the discussions of those people. He deliberately questioned Yu Huang maliciously, “Young Patriarch Yin, today is the day of the Demon Subduing Meet. You came to the scene, but you’re not here to participate in the Demon Subduing Operation with everyone. May I ask what you want to do? Could it be that on account of your friendship, you’re abandoning righteousness to protect that fiendish cultivator?!”
Without giving Yu Huang a chance to explain, he said righteously, “Prime Master Yin Mingjue sacrificed himself to save the world! How could such an indomitable man give birth to a daughter like you who doesn’t know right from wrong?!”
“Young Patriarch Yin, what would your father think?”
