"No, it’s not that, I just... I’m just afraid I’m not good enough, that I’ll hold him back and not be worthy of his affection... I just..."

Tears gradually welled up in Luoning’s eyes, fear enveloping her.

But in the next moment, Luoning felt a warm embrace, a strong sense of reassurance swept over her.

Baiyi’s voice was not loud, but it swept away her panic: "Alright Luoning, don’t think too much, you are important, I won’t abandon you regardless of what happens, you have plenty of time to think."

Baiyi looked at the scene in the deep sea, now that the Sea Race has returned, powerful individuals from various races began to gather, causing the schools of fish in the sea to increase once again.

His mind was also somewhat distracted, releasing Luoning, he calmly said in the deep sea: "You are more important than you think, both to me and to the Federation."

Baiyi turned around, holding Luoning’s hand, this time not just by the wrist.

The space around him constantly flickered with fluctuations, taking her through the ocean: "Lady Aisha’s divination, is it already no match for yours?"

"Master is still very powerful, I still have a lot to learn from her." Luoning replied with a slightly muffled voice, her head lowered.

Baiyi did not refute Luoning’s answer, he said warmly: "Think about it, Ancient Gods, Evil Gods, Netherworld, Hell, Abyss, all these divine-level influences are eyeing us covetously, and you are already a divination master as strong as your master, and in the future you’ll be even stronger."

"The Federation cannot do without you. Think about how many times you’ve saved Dongwu City?"

"The scarlet we saw when we met, Black Night Rose’s plot, the repeated assaults by Ancient God’s Favored, countless crises involving me."

"But..." Luoning’s heart melted a little, but in her eyes there was still self-deprecation, as Baiyi mentioned their initial encounter.

Actually, that was an unforgettable scene in her heart. At that time, the only person she trusted, her mother, died, she had lost everything, while Baiyi was the rising star in Dongwu City, draped in numerous honors.

Later, Baiyi’s halo grew heavier, stifling other geniuses.

In Luoning’s eyes, his brilliance became more dazzling, even though she was also growing, she felt she was merely a star in the night sky, and a star cannot accompany the sun.

She was constantly worried that when her usefulness diminished, she would be abandoned by the first ray of light after her mother’s death.

"There is no ’but’, Luoning." Baiyi said seriously: "You are more important than you think, to anyone."

"There will be no abandonment, nor dislike. Aileen can venture into All Heavens, to seek her own growth, while you cannot, you must stay by my side."

"With you here, I can be at ease."

Buzz~

The anxiety and unease in Luoning’s eyes dissipated with Baiyi’s voice, her mind buzzing, engulfed by a huge sense of happiness.

"Can I really?"

"Of course." Baiyi said softly: "You will only become more important. I could modify your memory to make you confident, or change your personality to eliminate these problems, but I didn’t. I always believe that becoming powerful requires a sense of self."

"When you find what you truly want, I believe your brilliance will overshadow the entire Federation, becoming the most powerful divination master in history."

Baiyi let out a long breath: "Okay, you can think about these things slowly, we have a lot of time, now what you need to do is to obtain this inheritance."

The timidity in Luoning’s eyes faded a bit, she gently squeezed Baiyi’s hand back, lifting her head slightly.

In front of her was a chaotic Coral Forest, with some octopuses hiding in the crevices, lurking and watching the outside world.

They would change their colors to blend with the coral, avoiding predators while waiting for their prey.

Luoning’s eyes brightened, this piece of Coral Forest, which seemed unremarkable to others, revealed a great door in her eyes.

"Brother, I saw it."

Prepared to check the space, Baiyi silently withdrew his hand: "Seen what?"

"A great door, so big." Luoning hesitated: "Moreover... it seems to be calling me to enter."

"Can you foresee the outcome this time?" Baiyi’s eyes were covered with spiritual power, but still, he could see nothing.

"No, here my premonition is blocked, I just know I need to go into the sea, the rest I don’t know." Luoning shook her head, no longer showing her previous disappointment, her mood gradually improved with Baiyi’s words.

"Let me take you in, brother." Luoning pulled Baiyi forward.

Baiyi did not resist, the moment Luoning touched the door, a phantom of a portal also appeared in his eyes.

It... rejected him.

But then, under Luoning’s powerful destiny interference, this rejection disappeared even before it reached Baiyi’s perception.

Before their eyes, light and shadow shifted.

The next moment, the surroundings transformed from the seabed into a palace.

Everywhere around were mermaid murals, seeming to tell a story.

However, Luoning didn’t pay attention to the story, she always felt something was calling her, leading Baiyi to quickly traverse through the Land of Inheritance.

Buzz~

As they reached beside the throne of the palace, high steps blocked their path.

Nine steps, each thirty-three centimeters high, neither too far nor too near, yet carried strong destiny fluctuations.

Clearly telling the entrants, this is the trial they must face.
