79: Chapter 79 Emperor Tian Shocked, Dragon Horse Sacrifice

"Since that is the case, let this matter be put to rest. From now on, strengthen the protection for the Emperor Auspicious Beast; just don't let what happened today happen again."

The various Spirit Beasts nodded one after another, then returned to their respective places to prepare for cultivation.

Just at this moment, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion spoke up: "Di Tian, I have something to say..."

She appeared extremely hesitant, as if she didn't know whether this matter should be spoken aloud.

Bi Ji walked to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's side and gently comforted her: "Don't worry, with Di Tian and us here, no matter what it is, it will be resolved."

"That's right, Little Three-Eyed, if there's anything, just tell Uncle Xiong. If you were bullied by someone, Uncle Xiong will go get revenge for you!"

Xiong Jun was not good with words and could only use the power he possessed to give his promise.

The other Spirit Beasts, including Di Tian, also cast encouraging gazes.

Looking at these elders who usually showered her with care, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion finally made up her mind and said: "Just now, when my forehead touched that human youth's, while he saw my fate, I also saw some of his memory fragments. In one of them, I saw my own death."

Once these words were spoken, the atmosphere among the Spirit Beasts, which had been relaxed, instantly became tense, especially for Chi.

If the Emperor Auspicious Beast were truly killed, then he would most likely also be doomed. After all, even if he didn't die in battle for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, upon returning alive, the charge of failing to protect her would be enough for him to die several times over.

"Emperor Auspicious Beast, can you explain in detail? For example, the cause of death?"

Although Di Tian was also very shocked at this moment, he remained calm and decided to ask for clarity first.

In his view, as long as the Three-Eyed Golden Lion remained within the range of the Star Dou Great Forest, and with him, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, present, it was impossible for the other party to be killed by artificial means.

Then there were only two possibilities: either the Emperor Auspicious Beast did it voluntarily, or she was killed only after leaving the Star Dou Great Forest.

Carrying these questions, Di Tian waited quietly for the Emperor Auspicious Beast's answer.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast thought for a moment and said: "In that memory fragment, I saw that the cause of my death was not being killed by a human Spirit Master. Instead..."

Speaking to this point, the Emperor Auspicious Beast found it somewhat difficult to say.

After all, the Emperor Auspicious Beast still could not understand why she would transform into a human girl and sacrifice herself to that man named Huo Yuhao.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast struggled for a moment, but ultimately decided to tell the Spirit Beasts. After all, the Spirit Beasts currently by her side were the people closest to her in this World.

"As for the cause of my death, it was sacrificing myself to a human Spirit Master."

Once these words were spoken, even the usually carefree Xiong Jun fell into silence.

They were all shocked. Just like the Emperor Auspicious Beast herself could not understand, they also could not understand why the Emperor Auspicious Beast would sacrifice herself to a human Spirit Master?

"Emperor Auspicious Beast, can you specifically talk about the reason you saw for your sacrifice in that memory fragment?"

Di Tian was desperately trying to keep himself calm at this moment and continued to ask.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast shook her head and said: "I only saw in that memory fragment that I transformed into a human girl. Later, after meeting that boy from the memory again, I seemed to have fallen in love with him, and in the end, I sacrificed myself to him to save his life."

When a Spirit Beast cultivates to one hundred thousand years, even if it transforms into a human, it is not a true human. Lacking the scheming nature of humans, it is extremely easy to be deceived.

For specific examples, refer to the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin from ten thousand years ago and Tang Hao of the Haotian Twin Stars. The two of them as a couple were very similar to this situation.

"Little Three-Eyed, were you deceived by that human? Tell me, I'll go find that human right now!"

Xiong Jun was almost driven crazy with anger. In his view, even after transforming into a human, the Emperor Auspicious Beast was still like a naive child, so the probability of being deceived by a human Spirit Master was still very high.

Hearing that their Star Dou Great Forest's darling was deceived into sacrificing herself to a human just like that, how could he remain calm?

The Emperor Auspicious Beast shook her head: "I also don't know why I would sacrifice myself."

The Emperor Auspicious Beast felt incomparably afraid at this moment, afraid that even after knowing the result of this matter, she would still inevitably walk onto the originally destined path of fate.

As the Emperor Auspicious Beast, she was still full of awe for fate.

"Little Three-Eyed, how can you be sure that the human's memory fragments are real?"

Chi Wang asked the doubt in his heart, and this doubt happened to be what the others wanted to know as well.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast nodded:

"My perception of fate is very sharp. I can clearly feel that those memory fragments are definitely not fake, but are truly real."

"However." The Emperor Auspicious Beast changed the subject and continued: "I don't know what is going on, but I cannot see through his trajectory of fate. He is like a person who defies fate and shouldn't exist in this World. He has already jumped out of the long river of fate and walked out a path of his own."

Once these words were spoken, the first to be shocked was Di Tian.

He was the leader of the entire forest on the surface, but this claim of jumping out of the long river of fate was something he was hearing for the first time.

"Emperor Auspicious Beast, is what you said true?"

Regarding things as mysterious and profound as fate, even the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian could not make up his mind for a moment.

The Emperor Auspicious Beast nodded: "Di Tian, don't you know about my understanding of the power of fate? A crossing of fate has already occurred between me and that human youth. Simply put, the future of the two of us has already changed."

Hearing this, everyone instead breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, if it were still like in the original story, wouldn't the Emperor Auspicious Beast be sacrificing herself to someone else?

After pondering for a moment, Di Tian looked at the several Spirit Beasts with a serious expression and said: "Starting from today, the Star Dou Great Forest will enter a state of alert. Once that youth's figure appears, report to me. I will capture him personally."

With so many things happening, Di Tian only wanted to find that youth and ask him clearly now.

Meanwhile, in a suburban area, Kong Deming landed on the ground with Mu Qingci, Meng Hongchen, and that Light Dragon Horse.

"Senior, let's do it here. You can begin the sacrifice."

Mu Qingci adjusted his state to the best and then released his Spirit.

Five spirit rings—yellow, purple, purple, black, black—appeared at his feet. Such an exceeding-standard spirit ring configuration also brought some shock to the Light Dragon Horse.

However, the Light Dragon Horse soon came back to its senses.

It had always taken pride in its light element attribute throughout its life, so since it had promised someone, it would not go back on its word.

The Light Dragon Horse walked slowly to Mu Qingci's side, and bright golden flames burned on its body.

Kong Deming wanted to stop it, but was blocked by Mu Qingci, because he knew that this was the sacrifice beginning.

The golden flames on the Light Dragon Horse's body were burning its body and devouring its soul.
