Seven Swords Ascend the Mountain, Recalling the Past; the Dao Hall Ushered In Its Darkest Age

"So, you didn't know Heaven-Stealing Sun-Swapping, did you?"

When Dao Qiongchang asked this question in the Relics of the Gods, he still found it unbelievable.

As clever as he was, even he could not imagine how crazed Sui Yin would become once it understood the whole truth.

It probably would not truly go mad, right? That would be hilarious—the first god in history to be played insane...
