Human Sacrifice

Outside the temple, the wind and rain showed no signs of stopping, whereas, inside the temple, it was peaceful. Ah Lian was unsure when the wind and rain would erode the temple.

Suddenly, there was an unexpected guest in the temple. Ah Lian saw a flash of light and it reduced the darkness in the temple. It was a pair of eyes.

Ah Lian recognized this unexpected guest. It was the celestial's mount, the black tiger. It rarely leaves its master but it was alone.

The black tiger's eyes lit up brightly like the stars in the sky. It told Ah Lian, "My master had treated you well, it is time to repay him."

Ah Lian understood the unresponsive portrait. The celestial was in trouble.

She was delighted as she was able to help the celestial. Regardless of the consequences, she was willing to give in. Hence, she said, "I am willing to do anything in my ability."
