"All these years, I've always worried that if you couldn't receive the inheritance guidance of the Ultimate Path, what would happen..."
The Second Prince sighed, "Fortunately, back then, you suddenly became the number one genius of the Human Clan, qualified to gain the favor of Beiyuan Mountain, truly receiving the inheritance guidance of the Ultimate Path. Step by step, you've come to this day; though it has been rather challenging, it has ultimately been smooth."
Lin Yue paused for a moment and said, "So, even if I didn't kill Xia Lie at the time, second brother would probably still have captured Xia Lie for my refinement, right?"
"Indeed."
The Second Prince nodded lightly and said, "I, your parents... the chosen Seventeenth Prince was originally you. Even the Divine Emperor allowing Xiahou Shou to reincarnate as a prince was just to let someone refine Xiahou Shou's Divine Soul, to thereby find the things Xiahou Shou brought out from the Ancient World."
