When Yu Huang looked at Xiao Shu and saw his icy expression, she guessed that even Xiao Shu didnât know Prime Master Goldfeatherâs true motive.
Xiao Shu pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and asked calmly, âOh really? Could it be that Prime Master Lingfeng knows other insider information?â
Sheng Lingfeng didnât know that Xiao Shu didnât know Prime Master Goldfeatherâs true motive.
He thought that Xiao Shu was testing him to see how much he knew.
âI know a little, but itâs not that comprehensive.â Sheng Lingfeng pondered and said, âNot only is Grand Master Xiaoyao a historian, but he was also a participant in the War of Freedom back then. Before he died, he wrote in his personal biography that after Prime Master Goldfeather led the four races to kill the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons, she took the Fire Unicornâs Monster Core. Twenty years later, after Prime Master Goldfeather reached the peak of the Prime Master Realm, she entrusted the Divine Realm Academy to her only personal disciple, Prime Master Guan Xing, and left the Divine Realm Academy to tour the world.â
âA year later, Prime Master Guan Xing sensed that his mentorâs lifespan was coming to an end, so he went to a certain place in the Divine Sea and found Prime Master Goldfeatherâs remains. He brought it back to the Divine Realm Academy and made it into Prime Master bones that would be buried forever. Howeverâ¦â Sheng Lingfeng looked at Xiao Shu and said,â But before Prime Master Guan Xing died, he took the initiative to look for Grand Master Xiaoyao and told him the truth about Prime Master Goldfeatherâs death. â
Xiao Shu frowned and asked, âHow did she die?â
Sheng Lingfengâs expression was mixed as he said, âAt that time, Prime Master Goldfeather was already a Prime Emperor. She wanted to use the Fire Unicornâs Monster Core to break through and become a Divine Master, but⦠she suffered the backlash of the Fire Unicornâs Monster Core and died.â
With that, Sheng Lingfeng concluded, âPrime Master Goldfeather worked hard to kill the Fire Unicorn because her goal was to snatch the Monster Core of the Fire Unicorn and become a Divine Master. The warriors of the four races were just tools for her.â
Sheng Lingfeng, who knew this secret, looked down on hypocrites like Prime Master Goldfeather the most.
After knowing what Prime Master Goldfeather had done from Sheng Lingfeng, everyone in the room had different thoughts.
After Xiao Shu found out the truth behind Prime Master Goldfeatherâs death, he didnât know if he should feel gratified that Prime Master Goldfeather got what she deserved or feel indignant that it wasnât enough punishment. When Yu Huang saw the mocking expression on Xiao Shuâs face, she felt even more sympathy for him.
After saying so much, Sheng Lingfeng only cared about one thingâ
âXiao Shu, you said that youâre the Lord of All Demons, but I donât understand. Youâd been betrayed and harmed so badly by Prime Master Goldfeather. Why did you take the initiative to come to Jingdu and even risk exposing your identity to tell us the truth?â At this point, Sheng Lingfeng smiled, but his smile was very cold.
Sheng Lingfeng said, âDonât tell me that you still have a conscience and canât bear to see the Holy Spirit Continent go to ruin. Iâm more certain than anyone else that you canât wait for the Holy Spirit Continent to get wiped out.â
After hearing Sheng Lingfengâs question, Xiao Shu wasnât in a hurry to answer.
He also asked himself, âWhy did I tell them the truth at the risk of exposing my identity?â
Yin Rongâs smile appeared in his mind. The scene of him fighting side by side with Sheng Xiao and the others in the Divine Realm Academy appeared in his mind. He also thought of the scenes of his companions staying by his side in the Kunlun Mystic Realm.
As Xiao Shu stroked the purple daisy ring on his middle finger, he suddenly resigned himself to fate.
âWhether you believe it or not, I donât want to destroy this world.â Xiao Shu stared at Sheng Lingfeng calmly and said, âThere are some people who are worth me risking life to protect and they love this world deeply.â
With that said, Xiao Shu glanced at Yu Huang and the others and said, âBefore I came, I had already thought about it. Should I hide in the abyss and wait for him to look for me to threaten me? Or should I take the initiative to fight alongside you guys?â
Xiao Shu smiled and hammered Sheng Xiaoâs shoulder as he said, âIâd rather fight with you guys to the end. Even if I die, I wonât have any regrets.â
Sheng Xiao held Xiao Shuâs arm tightly.
Trust was unspoken.
When Sheng Lingfeng saw the interaction between Sheng Xiao and Xiao Shu, he realized that his son had established a deep friendship with the Fire Unicorn. For a moment, he didnât know if he should trust Xiao Shu.
Xiao Shu knew that Sheng Lingfeng and the others were still afraid and suspicious of him. He sneered and said, âYou guys can suspect me, question me, or even kill me. However, the 24 holy children canât successfully gather. Once they successfully gather, the Holy Spirit Continent will be completely destroyed!â
âOn what basis should I believe you?â Sheng Lingfeng was still suspicious of Xiao Shu.
Xiao Shu said proudly, âBecause Prime Master Mo Xiao chose to believe me.â
Mo Xiao had divine foresight. It was impossible for him not to know Xiao Shuâs true identity. He knew and had specifically recruited Xiao Shu into the Holy Spirit Academy. This meant that he trusted Xiao Shu.
When Sheng Lingfeng heard this, most of his doubts were dispelled.
Thatâs right, a child who could be trusted by the Grand State Master was trustworthy.
Sheng Lingfeng took a deep breath and turned to look at Vivian.
At this moment, Vivianâs face was already full of tears.
Sheng Lingfeng and the others looked over. When she saw the struggle and hesitation in Sheng Lingfengâs eyes, Vivian knew that she definitely couldnât keep this child.
As a mother, Vivian should cry and beg them to let the child live.
But.
Vivian couldnât help but think of the destruction of the Prosperous Capital four years ago.
That year, hundreds of masters sacrificed themselves to help Anna become a Prime Master. Anna sacrificed herself to save the world.
Today, Vivian became the second Anna.
Vivian suddenly made up her mind and said in a hoarse voice, âToday is my childâs ob exam. I promised my husband that I would go to the hospital to see him.â Vivian looked at the room full of people pleadingly as she said, âLet us see him and let him stay in my stomach for another two hours, okay?â
Who could reject a motherâs humble request?
Sheng Lingfeng nodded and said, âChild, I will send you to Jingduâs treatment center. You will see your childâs appearance clearly through the most advanced examination device.â
Vivian nodded and burst into tears again. ââ¦Okay.â
At five in the afternoon, Sheng Lingfeng led a group of Grand Masters to escort Vivian to the treatment center.

At this moment, in the Xuanyuan Clan.
Xuanyuan Ming strode towards the villa where his mother lived. The moment he entered the living room, he saw his mother resting on the sofa.
âMom.â Xuanyuan Ming called out softly. Seeing that his mother was still sleeping, he raised his voice and shouted, âMom, the elders and all the Beast Tamers above the Supreme Master Realm are here.â
Hearing this, Liuli Nuonuo finally woke up slowly. The moment she opened her eyes, hatred and anger suddenly surfaced in them.
Xuanyuan Ming was so frightened by his motherâs gaze that his entire body stiffened.
