However, because these holy maidens who offer sacrifices to the spirits are not real saints but just substitutes for saints, when they want to pray to the spirits, they actually have to pay with their own flesh and blood and souls.
Once the prayer and sacrifice ceremony begins, these women will die in pain, and their souls will disappear, never to be reincarnated for eternity.
It can be said that this is a very cruel and inhumane ceremony.
But if the people in the divine realm want to survive, they have to perform such rituals.
And they are unwilling to sacrifice people in the divine realm, so they can only select qualified people from the lower planes every ten years to become the holy maidens of sacrifice, and let the sacrifice of these innocent girls ensure the stability of the divine realm for ten years after ten.
When Xi Yue heard the word "Saintess of the Spirits", a dark light flashed in her eyes.
Now she already knew what the so-called Holy Spirit Sacrifice Maiden was.
An Lingyue at the beginning, and An Lingyan later, were all sent to the divine realm as holy maidens for sacrificial offerings.
If An Lingyue had not met her father Yun Tianyi and spent a night with him, she would have died in the divine realm long ago.
And now her cousin An Lingyan is probably being held in the Holy Maiden Temple, waiting for the day when she becomes an innocent sacrifice.
Now the once-in-a-decade prayer and sacrificial ceremony has not yet begun. Xi Yue thought that no matter what, she could not let An Lingyan die in vain.
As for the safety of the God's Realm, what does it have to do with her
Huangfu Yi's words shocked everyone present, but many people believed him.
All the looks of awe and envy directed at Xi Yue turned into pity and contempt.
Huangfu Ling laughed heartily, "So that's how it is. It turns out that she is just a holy maiden for spiritual sacrifice! Hahahaha... No wonder Brother Wei is so concerned about a lowly female slave. It turns out that he just wants her life for sacrifice!"
"Brother, you also said that this slave is extremely cunning. Maybe it's because she seduced Brother Wei's men that they protected her so much. Hurry up and brand her a slave and send her back to the Saint's Palace!"
Maotu said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could our eldest lady be the Holy Maiden of the Sacrificial Spirit?!"
Dare to use Saint Tianyi's precious daughter as the Holy Maiden of Sacrifice. She wants to see who in the Divine Realm is so bold as to do that
Huangfu Ling sneered and said, "Brother, you see, I said this bitch would confuse others. In order to prevent her from escaping, you should quickly brand her as a slave!"
Huangfu Yi's hawk-like eyes became even deeper, but there was a blazing flame burning inside.
Without any hesitation, he took a step forward and was about to grab Xi Yue.
Chang Ling and Yan Shang looked extremely ugly.
"God of Wu Ling, you'd better think it over! Miss Xi Yue is the one the master wants. Do you want to brand her as a slave? When the time comes, can you afford the master's wrath?"
Qinglong took a step forward and stood in front of Xi Yue without hesitation, with the sword in his hand already unsheathed.
Baihu stood beside Xiyue, guarding her closely.
Qinglong said coldly: "Anyone who wants to touch Miss Xiyue will have to step over my dead body!"
Zishu looked at Huangfu Yi with a cold gaze, "Huangfu Yi, you'd better think it over. You've offended our Holy Lord. Do you really think you still have a chance to take the throne of the Divine Emperor?"
Huangfu Yi shuddered involuntarily when he thought of Wei Zixi's mysterious, cold and vicious style of doing things. (To be continued)
