"Sui Lang!" The beautiful woman clearly understood that her lover was only experiencing a brief moment of lucidity before death, and a wave of sorrow washed over her.

Zuan looked at the flashlight in his hand, never expecting it to be so useful.

Sui Hou casually tossed an ancient scroll made of animal hide towards Zu An: "Now I have nothing left, and I used the Three Flowers to save Yu'er, so I'll use this treasure map I obtained in my early years to repay your kindness in saving me."

Zu An casually caught it and immediately sensed that the animal hide was of extraordinary quality. However, the mention of a treasure map gave him a headache. Not long ago, that Taoist Wu Liang had also been selling so-called treasure maps, which led them here and into so many dangers.

Sui Hou then looked at the woman and said, "I haven't seen the sunrise for thousands of years. Can you accompany me to see the sunrise one last time?"

The woman was already in tears and couldn't speak, only nodding silently.

None of those present were weaklings, and they naturally realized that this Marquis Sui was indeed about to die, so there was no need for them to stop him.

Before leaving, the woman suddenly remembered something and returned, pulling Yu Yanluo aside: "I sensed that your bloodline is somewhat similar to mine, but it seems to lack a trace of divinity. This bead is useless to me now, so I'll give it to you. I hope you can pass it down from generation to generation."

As he spoke, he took out a round, bright pearl. It looked like a pearl, but it was much larger. Moreover, it faintly emitted a misty aura, and one could feel the surging power within it from a great distance.

"This is..." Yu Yanluo was dumbfounded, never expecting that she would give her such a big gift.

The other girls in the distance also noticed what was happening and secretly wondered if the bead was...

At this moment, the woman explained, "Our Nuwa clan is small in number, and it is almost a single lineage. After each generation of successors dies, their souls and cultivation are sealed in the spiritual pearl in their bodies for future generations to inherit and cultivate. In our clan, it is called the Holy Spirit Pearl, while outsiders call it the Spirit Serpent Pearl or the Bright Moon Pearl. Later, it was more commonly known as the Suihou Pearl."

"Suihou Pearl!" Recalling those murals, Princess Changning in the distance was almost driven mad with jealousy. She had worked so hard for half a day, but she didn't get the elixir of immortality, nor did she get a share of Suihou Pearl. How come all the benefits went to others?

Yu Yanluo hurriedly refused, saying, "This thing is too valuable, I can't accept it."

The stunningly beautiful woman sighed: "I cannot let the lineage of my clan end with me, and I have no descendants. Your bloodline is the most suitable one."

Because she was worried about her husband's health, she had no mood to persuade him and simply stuffed the Suihou Pearl into her hand.

Then he picked up Suihou, who seemed to be falling apart, and with a light touch of his toes, his figure disappeared into the distance.
