"Oh, there's actually such a thing..."
At this, Haotian narrowed his eyes and began considering whether it was true.
Since Martial Sister Yaochi had said so, it was certainly true. But whether the Three Pure Ones had deliberately put on that show for him remained to be investigated.

Once an imperial throne was established,
