"This is the man bound to the Auspicious Beast!"
A voice suddenly rang out beside Di Tian's ear, giving him a fright.
Di Tian instantly turned and discovered Gu Yuena, who had appeared at some unknown point. Embarrassment flickered in his eyes, and he quickly wiped that expression off his face.
Although he was already a Beast God approaching nine hundred thousand years of age, having someone appear soundlessly beside him was still frightening.
After all, anyone capable of that was probably a deity.
"My Lord!"
Di Tian hurriedly called out respectfully, thinking to himself that whenever his Lord appeared before, there had at least been some warning. This time was truly...
Still, his Lord had been appearing frequently lately. Even if this was an incarnation of her spiritual power while she slept, would it really not interfere with her recovery?
Of course, he could only keep those thoughts to himself. He swiftly returned to the matter at hand, pondering what Gu Yuena had just said, and a trace of disbelief flashed through his eyes.
"This is actually the Purple Heaven City Lord? But... why didn't I sense a Soul Master?"
Di Tian's eyes widened. He finally realized what was wrong: a soul beast was sacrificing itself, yet he had not sensed the Soul Master receiving that sacrifice at all!
"He must have fully mastered the Auspicious Beast's fate power and used it to obscure spiritual perception.
It seems he has already used that life gold."
Gu Yuena looked thoughtful, immediately guessing the truth.
"Hmph! He really doesn't know what's good for him. Anyone who didn't know better would think we were plotting something against him."
Di Tian snorted at her words. Clearly, he believed Li Ming had found another Soul Master to help him open the Eye of Destiny.
