"I know."
"It was you that made me not look up."
Bai Yanyan smiled brightly, and the corners of Gu Yunzhou's lips also rose slightly. Then he stretched out his hand, and Bai Yanyan consciously put her own hand up.
Gu Yunzhou tightened his five fingers, held her small hand, and then looked at the jade pendant.
"This jade pendant..."
"The quality is very good, it is a divine product."
Bai Yanyan wanted to explain, but Gu Yunzhou spoke first, "Wearing it will help you."
As he spoke, he returned the jade pendant to Bai Yanyan. Bai Yanyan continued to play with the jade pendant. The more she looked at it, the more curious it seemed to her. Not only was the jade pendant icy and cool, it also had a rich spiritual energy.
Although it doesn't have much effect on her, it will be of great help to Xiao Qingzi or her uncle.
"But why hasn't this divine sacrifice started yet?"
"They said it would be soon, then they said mid-month, and now it seems like mid-month has already passed."
She had been looking forward to this divine sacrifice, but she didn't expect that the sacrifice had not yet started. This... is so strange.
"Previously, the divine sacrifices were held in the middle of the month, but this time is different..."
Gu Yunzhou glanced out the window. The bright moonlight shone in, a gentle glow. He slowed his voice and said, "This divine sacrifice will open the fallen Nine Netherworld Divine Realm. Only on the 19th, when the power there is at its most intense, can they open it."
"I see..."
nineteen…
This day feels a little familiar.
It seems to be her birthday.
But she hadn't celebrated her birthday in a long time. Back in China, her movie star dad had celebrated her birthday, but he had a bad memory and celebrated it on the 19th of almost every month. In reality, he just used celebrating her birthday as an excuse to drag her on childish things like riding roller coasters...
——
Finally, it’s time for the divine sacrifice.
As soon as it was daybreak, the maid came over.
Wake up Bai Yanyan and dress her up.
"Beautiful sisters, can I wear red clothes?"
“I really like red.”
"Look, does my hairpin look good? Can you help me put it on?"
She was not allowed to wear red clothes, but they helped her put on the peach blossom hairpin, and tied her hair with a purple headband as she requested. When she was almost done, they took her to be baptized.
After the baptism, he took her to the temple.
A lot of people gathered in front of the main hall of Shenyun Temple, including several elders and several peak-level ninth-grade elders such as Elder Rong.
Seeing her coming, Elder Rong waved at her. Bai Yanyan came to stand beside him and asked, "Elder Rong, has the divine sacrifice begun?"
"Well, let's head to the top of the Divine Cloud."
"The summit of the divine cloud?"
"The holy place where the divine sacrifice was opened."
A sacred place for divine sacrifices? She had thought it was held in the Shenyun Temple, but she hadn't expected it to be held there.
When Bai Yanyan was confused about how to get there, Elder Rong whispered, "The Palace Master is here."
"Palace Master?"
Bai Yanyan looked at it curiously.
Then I saw the white figure.
The man was tall and dressed in white, with a mask on his face so his features couldn't be seen. However, he just walked forward, and his every move revealed his nobility.
He is truly worthy of being the ancestor of the Gu Yunzhou family!
All equally handsome!
only--
Why would such a handsome man hold a black bird in his arms?
The bird was a complete failure, ruining the fairy-like aura of the beauty in white.
Bai Yanyan was extremely disgusted, but the others looked at their master with admiration.
Even Mr. Rong's face was full of admiration.
Back then, his cultivation was stuck at the late ninth level for decades, and he was unable to break through. He even nearly went astray. It was the Palace Master who pulled him back and even allowed him to successfully break through to the peak of the ninth level.
In his mind, the master is God!
The Lord of Shenyun Temple stood on the front steps of the temple.
Looking down at the group of people below, his cold eyes swept over everyone, but he didn't see the familiar figure. He reached out and grabbed the feathers of the black bird in his arms.
The black bird's feathers stood on end in pain, but another feather was plucked out the next second. It then became timid and lay there, not daring to move.
“This year’s divine sacrifice is different from previous years.”
"Whether our people from Shenyun Temple can enter depends on your ability."
The man's voice was flat, and then a white light emanated from his body. The light emitted a powerful spiritual energy, and then a huge teleportation array appeared above everyone's heads.
"Such a large teleportation array, the Lord of the Divine Cloud Palace is indeed very powerful."
Bai Yanyan muttered something, and then everyone was teleported away.
But in the blink of an eye, they appeared in another place.
This is the top of the divine cloud.
A huge venue is floating above the nine mountains of the divine realm.
When they arrived, the people who came had already stood up to greet them, no, it should be said that they were welcoming the Lord of the Divine Cloud Temple. After all, the only one who was qualified to worship God was the Lord of the Divine Cloud Temple, a demigod.
And only he can open it.
The Lord of the Shenyun Temple was attracting much attention, but Bai Yanyan looked around curiously and touched things here and there. However, she was discovered by the Fourth Elder after just a while.
"I'm just curious."
Bai Yanyan said seriously, "I was just curious and didn't mean to cause any damage."
"Something happened to Lin Xuan, he will come over later."
The fourth elder took out a box from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Yanyan, "He asked you to carry this for self-defense."
Lin Xuan?
"Do you know my third senior brother?"
The fourth elder curled the corners of his lips in agreement, and Bai Yanyan understood.
She had been wondering why the Fourth Elder wanted to help her. Now it seemed that he knew her Third Senior Brother, so he helped her in everything.
"Is my third brother okay?"
"fine."
The fourth elder shook his head. "He will take care of it. Just take care of yourself."
Lin Xuan was able to hold on to the position of the capital's city lord, so he naturally had the ability to do so and would not get into any trouble himself. He just had some troubles that he needed to deal with and could not get away for the time being.
"Okay, thank you."
Bai Yanyan was about to ask something when suddenly a scream came from behind her.
"Isn't this Saint Lady Lian Yue?"
"I haven't seen her for a long time, but she's still so beautiful."
"No, today's Saint Lady Lian Yue is even more beautiful than usual, and her skin is even several shades whiter."
Saint Lianyue…? She hadn’t seen her in the hall just now, and she thought she had hidden herself away and wouldn’t cry again.
Bai Yanyan looked back.
Saint Lian Yue appeared at some point. She was still wearing a white dress, but it was even more gorgeous than usual, especially the skirt with several layers of gauze. It looked like a wedding dress. Her hair had grown out, but it was not as black and smooth as before.
She used to have long flowing hair, but now she has it in a gorgeous bun and wears a lot of exquisite and gorgeous accessories.
"You all have gathered here to offer sacrifices to the gods."
