The Ethereal Fairy desperately wanted to know the answer. "I want to know. Tell me... Master, please tell me!"
Pain flashed through Dangling Heaven's eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "It was only by sacrificing my own Heavenly Heart and Celestial Position that I obtained a trace of your remnant soul..."
The Ethereal Fairy's body stiffened, her pupils trembling violently. Looking at the loneliness in Dangling Heaven's eyes, she could no longer hold herself together. She threw her arms around him and burst into tears.
Dangling Heaven had once told her what the Heavenly Heart and Celestial Position were.
They were proof of being 'Heaven'!
Lose either one, and one would no longer be Heaven, but a false Heaven. Not only would one lose the methods unique to Heaven, but one's cultivation would also be unable to advance another step from then on.
Lose both, and not only would one's realm fall, one would become a sinner of Heaven. From then on, one could not enter reincarnation and could only live within one's own world for life. The moment one stepped into the outside world, one's soul would scatter and vanish in a short time.
"Master never married or had children in this life. In Master's eyes, you are both my disciple and my daughter. For you, Master has no regrets," Dangling Heaven said softly, gently patting the Ethereal Fairy's back to comfort her.
Even if he had to do it again, he would sacrifice his Celestial Position and Heavenly Heart once more. As long as it was for his most beloved disciple and daughter, he was willing.
Besides, merely using the Heavenly Heart and Celestial Position in exchange for one reincarnation of his disciple was, in his eyes, a deal that guaranteed profit without loss.
