When the old man heard the young man’s words, it was as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

“Of course I have to. The continuation of the tribe is more important than a moment of glory and humiliation. What I’m worried about now is not what will happen to Little You when she reaches the Tail Bind Tribe, but whether our

Forbidden Feather Tribe can find another suitable woman to send to the Tail Bind Tribe.”

The old man gritted his teeth and said these words. Looking at the young man’s stubborn and disappointed eyes, the old man sighed softly. “Little Yu, you have to experience the cruelty of this world. As the leader, I am willing to sacrifice myself for the continuation of the tribe!”

Zhou Yu looked at the old man’s palm that was about to cover his head. He turned around and ran out of the tent without looking back. Being in such a world, how could Zhou Yu not know the cruelty of this world!? In this harsh world, for Zhou Yu, the presence of her small family and tribe meant that his living environment was warm.

However, now, his father’s words completely shattered Zhou Yu’s thoughts. His own father actually wanted to send his sister away. Using such a method to perpetuate the tribe was truly a disgrace for the Forbidden Feather Tribe. Zhou Yu hated his father for making the decision, but he also knew that there was nothing his father could do.

Ever since the leader of the Tail Bind Tribe increased in strength, he had been suppressing and controlling the other surrounding species. Many species had been exterminated by the Tail Bind Tribe because they had rejected their control.

There were many such examples. A few factions that were allied with the Forbidden Feather Tribe were exterminated by the Tail Bind Tribe because they were unwilling to send their young women over.

Zhou Yu clenched his fists and roared at the sky. At this moment, compared to hating his father for making the decision, Zhou Yu resented his own weakness more.

In his heart, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but angrily think that if he could prevent his sister from being abused by that old scoundrel of the Tail Bind Tribe and let her live freely and happily, he was willing to use his life and everything in exchange.

Zhou Yu, who had just thought of this, could not help but laugh at himself. His life was not worth anything at all. Even if he really exchanged everything he had, could he really exchange it for anything? Who would be willing to take his useless life!?

With these thoughts, Zhou Yu sighed deeply.

In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, the weaker side had no choice whatsoever, not even in matters of life and death. Zhou Yu himself had no power to decide. If his father had not made such a choice, his sister and he would most likely have died at the hands of the Tail Bind Tribe.

It was a decision that her father had just made, and Little You was still unaware of it.

Zhou Yu was prepared to accompany his sister, but when he reached the tent where his sister lived, he lost control of his emotions. He did not know how to face Zhou You at all. Zhou Yu did not dare to tell his sister about all of this.

In a magnificent hall in the South Universe, a woman in luxurious clothes was hugging a young girl who looked like a pocket-sized doll in her arms. She was clearly smiling, but her eyes could not help but reveal a sorrowful expression.

The girl in the woman’s arms was very obedient. She did not make a fuss and her beautiful eyes were fixed on the incense burner that was burning with wispy smoke. Her beautiful eyes were both ancient and empty, as if she had seen through the ostentatiousness of this world.

The woman in luxurious clothes tried her best to hide the sorrow in her eyes as she lowered her eyes and said to the girl in her arms, “Ru Yi, you can’t do that kind of stupid thing again. You were born in the Carp Mystic Palace and are the little princess in the palace. As the master, you need not concern yourself with the gossip of those servants. Those servants who dared to slander you behind your back have already been cleared out. Their entire families have paid the price for it!

“If any of those servants displease you, you can simply have your personal attendants deal with them directly. Since your two personal attendants failed to take care of you properly, I’ve already punished them by asking them to face the wall in the Torrent Cold Pool.

“Ru Yi, you are my only child. What will happen to her if you die?!”

At this point, the woman in luxurious clothes paused for a moment before continuing, “Your father and I have let you down. When we gave birth to you, we didn’t expect this curse to have an effect on our descendants and even transfer it to you!”

Originally, the woman in luxurious clothes wanted to say that she would do everything in her power to help the girl in her arms remove the curse. However, how could it be so easy to remove the curse? After working hard for so many years and using all the power of the Carp Mystic Palace, and even going so far as to find a Grade 5 Creator, it was still not enough.

This curse was fused with the girl’s bloodline. She would be able to maintain her appearance at about ten years old and would stay that way forever. However, the curse would deplete her lifespan. Even though her daughter hadn’t lived to a hundred, half of her lifespan had already been consumed. In another ten years, would the mother-daughter relationship between her and Ru Yi be severed?!

The woman in luxurious clothes felt increasingly distressed as she thought about it and her eyes could not help but reveal a sad expression. She did not know that the sorrow between her brows had deeply pierced the heart of the girl in her arms.

Ru Yi looked up at her mother. In her memory, her mother had never seemed to smile at her ever since she could remember. Even when she smiled, the smile never reached her eyes.

His parents, uncles, aunties, grandparents, grandparents, and all the elders looked at her with regretful and painful expressions. As she grew older and more experienced, Ru Yi also learned about her body’s condition. Every day, she had to expend massive resources to slow down the depletion of her lifespan.

The servants of the Carp Mystic Palace did not dare to openly discuss her condition in her presence, but it was common for them to talk about it behind her back. It had made Ru Yi feel that she was a burden more than once, leading to thoughts of suicide. Ru Yi felt that if she was not around, her father and mother would not have to spend so many resources on her every day. The other relatives in the family also would not have to worry about her condition.

Ru Yi heard the servants’ discussion about her and they accelerated the thoughts in Ru Yi’s heart.

After experiencing a close brush with death, as well as witnessing the tears of her parents, Ru Yi suddenly had a different emotion. His mother always shed tears because of her condition. However, Ru Yi had never seen her father cry. In Ru Yi’s memory, her father was an extremely serious and resolute man, who never showed any signs of weakness.

Upon seeing her parents facing her imminent death with broken hearts, Ru Yi changed her mind. Despite the curse tormenting Ru Yi’s body and causing her immense pain, she still decided to spend the remaining decades accompanying her parents. It was her way of fulfilling her filial duty and repaying her parents for their lifelong bond. However, no matter what, Ru Yi felt indignant.

If it weren’t for the curse in her body, Ru Yi would have had the freedom to explore the world more, instead of being like a bird in a cage as she was now, confined to glimpsing the world through records in ancient texts.

In such a huge faction, Ru Yi believed that she was a very realistic person. However, in the face of her situation, Ruyi could not help but pray. If she could rid herself of the curse, live like a normal person and not let her parents and family worry about her, Ru Yi was willing to use everything she had in exchange.

With these thoughts in mind, Ru Yi couldn’t help but chuckle at herself, feeling that her ideas were somewhat fanciful. The Grade 5 Creator had examined her condition. If that Grade 5 Creator could not do anything, how could others change her predicament?!

“Mother, you and Father don’t need to blyourselves. It was foolish ofto do something that worried you both. I won’t do such a thing again in the future. You can be rest assured. I did what I did before by deliberately hiding it from Han Xing and Leng Yun. If you keep them in the Torrent Cold Pool, I’ll lack manpower here. Mother, let Hanxing and Leng Yun cout of the Torrent Cold Pool. I promise I won’t do anything like this again!”

Upon hearing the words of the girl in her arms, the woman still felt a lingering sense of unease, but she knew that her daughter would not lie to her in such a matter, “Ru Yi, since you’ve asked for mercy for the two of them, we’ll do as you say. They’ll be back with you this evening.

“I’ll take you later to use the cinnabar from the Red Carp and the powder of the Ten Thousand Year Mica to help suppress the curse in your body. You’ve injured a lot of the roots in your body this time. You’ll need to replenish them in the next half a year!”

As she said these words, the woman in the luxurious dress couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious, because in the past, her daughter had been very resistant to suppressing the curse.

The cinnabar from the Red Carp refined the body and the powder of the Ten Thousand Year Mica refined the soul. However, they didn’t offer a pleasant sensation when applied. Previously, Ru Yi had a strong aversion to them.

However, Ru Yi had already made up her mind to be filial to her parents for the next few years. After making this decision, she no longer rejected this method of suppressing the curse. Only by living well could she be more filial in front of his father and mother.

“Alright, I’ll try my best to hold on for as long as possible this time. I’ll strive to maximize the effect of this cleansing. Mother, I have to cleanse every day or two. You don’t have to accompanyevery time. In the future, I’ll get up every morning to cleanse first. I’ll look for you after I’m done!”

Upon hearing Ru Yi’s words, the woman in luxurious clothes was stunned. She did not expect her daughter to suddenly becso sensible. However, Lan

Xiang was not very happy about it. Instead, she felt a little upset. As a mother, Lan Xiang understood her daughter best. She knew that Ru Yi’s words and actions were influenced by the compromise she made. This compromise made Lan Xiang feel even more indebted to her daughter.

After the Moon Empress finished her meal, Lin Yuan and Wen Yu went to a quiet room, “Wen Yu, let’s start the Astronomical Parliament. This time, you’ll select two members to join the Astronomical Parliament. Let’s see how long you can hold the Astronomical Parliament if you recruit two members. As long as it can last for 20 minutes, it will be enough!”

When Wen Yu heard Lin Yuan’s words, she recalled how he had dragged Jing Bai into the Astronomical Parliament for the first tafter coming to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

“Young Master, with my current situation and the support of the Star Vastness

Peony, it shouldn’t be difficult forto pull the two of them into the Astronomical Parliament and let the meeting last for 20 minutes. I should be able to do it. When my Astronomical Parliament’s star level advances again, it can last even longer!”

After saying that, Wen Yu took out a few pieces of rainbow fish coats that Liu Jie had baked and quickly chewed them.

In the main world, the fish coats that Wen Yu had eaten were not of a high grade. Now that Lin Yuan had nurtured them, the fish coats produced by them could perfectly meet Wen Yu’s consumption needs.

Wen Yu closed her eyes and activated the Astronomical Parliament. As the cat-eye-like gem on Wen Yu’s forehead lit up, Lin Yuan and Wen Yu appeared in a place where the constellations were shining brightly. Following closely behind were Liu Jie, Luo Lan, Su Yiren, and Bei Xu.

The four of them had just sat down when Jing Bail s figure appeared on the Ophiuchus constellation seat.

Lin Yuan, Wen Yu, and Liu Jie had investigated Jing Bail s life experiences. In their eyes, Jing Bai was an extremely pitiful little thing.

Even if Jing Bai, who was in North Universe, joined the Astronomical

Parliament, he would only be able to obtain a large amount of resources and support and would not be able to obtain more reliance.

Fortunately, the Alluring Foxes had headed to North Universe and were not far from Jing Bail s location.

Lin Yuan asked Kong Huan to contact Jing Bai and ask her to protect the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes.

Lin Yuan had already provided Kong Huan with the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower’s ramet, so Kong Huan could use it to communicate with Lin Yuan without any obstacles.

According to Kong Huan, the Alluring Foxes had already begun to protect the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes with their status as Snow-covered Foxes. They no longer allowed the Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes to oppress the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes.

The Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes were not afraid of the Alluring Foxes, given their significantly superior overall strength. However, they had no choice but to give the Snow-covered Foxes face.

The Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes treated the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes as their servants. All the members of the Purifying Water Illusion Snakes were laborers of the Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes.

In the eyes of the Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes’ ruler, the Alluring Foxes were seizing control of their dependent species. However, due to the reputation and might of the Snow-covered Foxes, the domineering Crystal Rock Illusion Snakes had no choice but to compromise..
