As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

A streak of sword light erupted from the ground, soaring like a roc spreading its wings, ascending swiftly to the heavens!

It swept away the swirling thin clouds, as countless dazzling beams of golden sunlight poured forth from behind, resembling light and thunder!

Brilliant and blinding, the radiant sword Qi seemed capable of captivating all eyes.

Before the Mysterious Temple.

All was silent.

Only Lv Taibai’s sonorous voice echoed across the entire city.

“Let us celebrate!”

“Celebrate—!!!”

The booming waves of sound reverberated as though ringing clearly beside everyone’s ears, leaving hearts shaken and amazed.

Many people tilted their heads, gazing at the sword light that pierced through the skies, surrounding the figures of two individuals.

Lv Taibai donned white robes, silver hair cascading like a waterfall, his face adorned with a sincere, joyous smile as he held a little girl’s hand.

Countless strands of rampant sword Qi surged around them, roaring as though ripping the Heavenly Dome apart like meteors, lifting Lv Taibai and Xi Xi’s figures into the clouds.

Lv Taibai, the Qian Yuan Divine Sect Master, a peerless existence ranked fifth on the Great God List!

His final direct disciple had emerged!

All gazes converged upon the little girl by his side.

At only five years old, an age of exquisite delight, her eyes were like two glossy dates, spinning playfully. Hidden within her lapel was a small black puppy, similarly wide-eyed, staring curiously at the world.

The crowd couldn’t help but feel bewildered, astonished.

Though many speculated that Li Nuanxi would ultimately become Lv Taibai’s direct disciple.

When the reality was truly revealed, when Xi Xi indeed became Lv Taibai’s disciple…

Many still found it difficult to accept.

After all, Xi Xi was just so young—only five years old…

Yet she was able to surpass so many prodigies from various factions, becoming a direct disciple of a Great God!

Before the Mysterious Temple.

Jin Taixui’s lips dripped with blood as he gazed dazedly at Li Nuanxi, who was wrapped in sword Qi and ascended to lofty heights.

He bit his lip, his face tinged with unwillingness.

But soon, this unwillingness slowly dissipated.

Because…

From the results displayed on the Golden List, Xi Xi had already surpassed him during the burning of the first incense stick.

Reaching a level he could only achieve during the second stick.

In truth, even without the incident of the Great Witch God’s power being repelled by the Tianpeng Temple God, solely comparing results, he was still bested by Li Nuanxi.

Let alone the showdown of trump cards, where he was defeated as well.

In truth, passing the Temple Suppressing Road was impossible solely relying on their own prowess as prodigies. The test was meant to measure their hidden cards.

And Xi Xi’s hidden cards were undoubtedly terrifying.

What exactly was she hiding?

Jin Taixui couldn’t figure it out, gripping his nails deeply into his flesh, the pain, confusion, frustration, and despair…

All kinds of emotions surged through his heart.

“I lost…”

“I failed… The Great Witch God… must be utterly disappointed in me.”

Jin Taixui’s heart was heavy with bitterness.

Whoosh, whoosh—

Two dark shadows descended swiftly beside Jin Taixui, these were the Divine Fetus Practitioners from Wushen Mountain.

Their expressions were extremely grim, and disbelief still lingered in their eyes.

They fully understood Jin Taixui’s trump card: summoning the power of the Great Witch God… Based on that, Jin Taixui should have easily conquered the Temple Suppressing Road.

“Young Witch Jin… What happened?”

“Was it Qian Yuan Divine Sect’s treachery?”

The Divine Fetus Practitioner whose neck was nearly snapped by Zhao Fangzhou earlier growled through gritted teeth.

Jin Taixui regained his composure and shook his head. “It’s an issue with the Mysterious Temple… Qian Yuan Divine Sect did not intervene.”

“Temple Suppressing, Temple Suppressing. No one can fully determine the situation within the Mysterious Temple; that’s why it’s called Temple Suppressing Road. I borrowed the power of the Great Witch God, which clashed with the Temple God within, provoking interference from a Four Imperial Rank Temple God…”

“So ultimately, it was my lack of preparation…”

Jin Taixui displayed remarkable straightforwardness as he candidly admitted his defeat…

“But Young Witch Jin… the wager…”

Another Divine Fetus Practitioner’s expression darkened dramatically, revealing distress.

Jin Taixui’s loss was one thing—but…

The wager was the real concern!

Betting on Dao Yun, Jin Taixui, if he broke the terms, would have his path of cultivation severed by the Dao Yun bearing witness…

Jin Taixui’s eyes shrank as his lips curled into a touch of bitterness.

…

…

In reality, the third test of the True Temple Suppressing Road was not yet completed.

Thus, Lv Taibai simply made a brief announcement and then ascended high into the air with Xi Xi.

Within the Mysterious Temple, there remained another prodigy, Yun E, from the Yun Family, whose body concealed a Temple God.

Unfortunately, this Temple God failed to offer her significant support. Despite Yun E’s efforts to unleash the Temple God Power in Tianpeng Mysterious Temple, her own strength was ultimately too weak.

The Temple God Power she wielded consistently helped her defeat the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses, but that was all.

When Yun E emerged from the Mysterious Temple, amidst the swirling Mysterious Fog, she did not appear overly dejected.

She had long anticipated this outcome.

But upon seeing that figure rising into the clouds, hand in hand with Lv Taibai.

Yun E exhaled softly and raised her hand to touch the space between her brows. Moments later, the Temple God Power within her body coalesced rapidly into an ice-crystal-like gemstone, seated upon her fair brow.

“Congratulations, Xi Xi.”

Yun E pursed her lips and offered a genuinely heartfelt smile.

All along, she had borne immense pressure, as many hoped she would counter Jin Taixui.

But Yun E understood her own limitations—her talent was quite ordinary, relying chiefly on the Temple God’s power.
