“That’s right,” Ji Linyuan said. “We suspected that Madam Xuanyuan wanted to use the female disciples of the Liuli Clan to carry out some kind of plan, so Prime Master Lingfeng convinced me to participate in the marriage recruitment event.”
“You married her just like that?” Yu Huang felt that it was ridiculous and couldn’t care less about the hierarchy of seniority as she scolded angrily, “Eldest Senior Brother, marriage isn’t child’s play! Have you thought about how things will end after you two get married?!”
Ji Linyuan felt wronged and said in agitation, “Why did I do it? You and Sheng Xiao have both comprehended the power of the Divine Master. I was afraid that the heavens would attack the two of you. I had no choice but to participate in the marriage recruitment event! How can I not know that marriage is not child’s play?! But no matter how important marriage is, is it more important than your life?!”
She was the only bloodline his mentor had left in this world. Ji Linyuan’s life was given to him by his mentor. As long as he was alive, he had to take good care of his junior.
For his junior, he was willing to do anything.
After hearing Ji Linyuan’s words, Yu Huang stared at him in a daze and her heart suddenly ached. “Eldest Senior Brother, I… I’m sorry…”
When Ji Linyuan saw that Yu Huang’s eyes were red, he realized that he had blurted out what was on his mind.
Seeing his junior sister cry, Ji Linyuan immediately panicked. “Why are you crying? Mentor is dead, so I’m your closest kin. I naturally have to protect you. This is what I should do. Don’t cry.”
Yu Huang hurriedly turned around and wiped her eyes.
When she turned around again, Yu Huang had already regained her composure. She said, “Eldest Senior Brother, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” Yu Huang poured a cup of tea for Ji Linyuan and handed it to him. Only then did she tell him about the abnormality she discovered at the tea party today.
After hearing this, Ji Linyuan also found it unbelievable. “You mean that the female disciples who married out of the Liuli Clan back then all had miscarriages because of various accidents?”
“Yeah.”
Yu Huang tapped her fingers lightly on the table and asked Ji Linyuan, “How many female disciples married out of the Liuli Clan back then?”
Ji Linyuan told her, “54.”
Yu Huang frowned and said, “In that case, the remaining twenty to thirty female disciples have already given birth?”
“Yes.” Ji Linyuan asked Yu Huang, “What are you thinking about?”
Yu Huang said, “I originally didn’t associate Madam Xuanyuan with the heavens, but after hearing your words today, I have a bold guess.”
Ji Linyuan looked at Yu Huang in confusion and curiosity. He couldn’t help but lower his voice and ask, “What are you thinking about?”
Yu Huang lowered her head and moved closer to Ji Linyuan. Then, she narrowed her eyes and said, “I’m thinking that after Madam Xuanyuan married off the female disciples of the Liuli Clan, she got them pregnant and deliberately made them miscarry. Perhaps she’s trying to snatch the future luck of the Holy Spirit Continent through the children in the stomachs of these female disciples?”
“Seize luck?” Upon hearing this, Ji Linyuan couldn’t help but think of the Grand State Master’s death three years ago. “Just like how he used the Grand State Master and the dead Prime Master bones to set up the Luck Seizing Array back then, he also wants to secretly snatch the luck of the Holy Spirit Continent through these children?”
Yu Huang nodded with a serious expression. “That’s right. However…” Yu Huang’s brows furrowed tightly again. Clearly, she was still filled with confusion.
Yu Huang looked at Ji Linyuan in confusion as she said, “But the Liuli Clan married off a total of 54 female disciples. The other disciples successfully gave birth, and the children were all healthy. Only these 20 plus female disciples had miscarriages. This is not enough to prove my point.”
Yu Huang’s guess was still unfounded.
“If Madam Xuanyuan is really the heavens, then she must have a motive for marrying off the female disciples of the Liuli Clan. What does she want to do?”
Yu Huang couldn’t think of what Madam Xuanyuan wanted to do, nor could Ji Linyuan.

Late at night, Sheng Xiao returned to the Yin Clan. When they met, he told Yu Huang about Madam Xuanyuan.
Yu Huang told him, “Eldest Senior Brother told me too.”
“So you already know.” Like Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao thought that Madam Xuanyuan marrying off the female disciples of the Liuli Clan was an elaborate scheme. He said, “What do you think she’s planning?”
Yu Huang frowned, but she couldn’t provide an answer.
Suddenly, Sheng Xiao said, “Are you afraid of your lifespan shortening?”
