"Heavenly Dao revolves, bringing life and death," Nuwa spoke calmly, void of any intention to intervene and save him. "If Ye Xuan truly perishes and his Dao dissolves, that too would be his own destiny."
"Master!"
Upon hearing Nuwa's words, tears streamed down from the eyes of the Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden. But before she could continue pleading, she was already immobilized at Nuwa's side, unable to utter even a whisper of entreaty.
"Ye Xuan, are you truly the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint?" Nuwa murmured, her eyes flickering with a hint of doubt.
In truth, from beginning to end, the so-called grand gathering at the Nuwa Palace was less of a celebration and more of a trial by the Saint Nuwa for Ye Xuan.
