If you have a golden apple, who would you give it to? At the banquet, Lorne, who was invited, saw the golden apple on the plate engraved with the words "To the Fairest," as well as the three goddesses in front of him caught in a dispute. The matter was quite troublesome and anyone would be panicked however, Not him. He smiled, picked up a knife and completed the process in three steps. The first step was to peel the skin, and he gave the peel to Aphrodite. "To be honest, you are indeed quite beautiful. As a layer of skin, it’s still passable." The second step was to cut the flesh, and he gave the flesh to Hera. "You are the queen of heaven, but everyone on Olympus, from eight hundred years old to the beasts, can cuckold you, including men, women, and even goats. Since your dignity is already lost, I’ll give you the substance." The third step was to give the remaining core to Athena. "You were supposed to be born as a male god to inherit Zeus’s throne, but because of Zeus, you lost your seed. So, I’ll give you this seed." And it was done.. Looking at Aphrodite, clenching her fists, Hera, raising her scepter, Athena, summoning her spear and shield, Lorne quickly stepped back, firmly shielding the goddess of discord, Eris, in front of him. "And you still want to be the goddess of discord? Look at me, I made them unite in an instant. Even your provocation isn’t as effective as mine." "..." Looking at the Greek gods around them sharpening their knives, Eris fell into silence. . . .

Battle Through the Heavens was my first donghua and also my first novel, and because of that it holds a very special place in my heart. Xiao Yan, his journey, his struggles, and his growth are things no one can truly replace, and I know that the original story is already complete in its own way. Still, as a fan, I often imagined a different path—one where family emotions play a stronger role, where bonds, loss, and protection become as important as power itself. This idea is not meant to change Xiao Yan or deny the original story. Instead, it is a personal re-imagining inspired by my own thoughts and feelings as a reader. I was especially inspired by the fanfic BTTH: Thunder Shattered by Yi Pin Ru Xi Yang Yang. I am not trying to copy it directly, but rather use it as a foundation and modify the story according to my own imagination—focusing on a more powerful background, deeper family relationships, and emotional growth alongside cultivation. I am not a professional writer, and this is not something I am doing for fame or recognition. This story is purely for my own satisfaction and love for BTTH. If anyone has thoughts, ideas, or suggestions, I am open to them, and I will gladly shape the story in a better way.
