There was no way around it; Yui had crossed Dian Yin's boundaries. Everyone in the Celestial Realm knew that the deity was the most revered figure by Dian Yin, and no one dared to speak against her.
"Today, you have to compete, whether you want to or not." With that, the second blade was about to come down.
Yui quickly waved her hands and said, "Wait, wait... let's not compete in this. I will definitely lose to you in this. Can we compete in something else?"
"Fine." Dian Yin withdrew her hand without hesitation, a hint of something inscrutable flashing in her eyes, making Yui feel like she had fallen into a trap.
Dian Yin spoke slowly, "The Celestial Dynasty has been under the protection of our Nature Deity since ancient times, which is why it has flourished and remained undefeated. However, the current emperor is aging, and he has many sons who are fiercely competing for the throne..."
"So, what I mean is, let's make a bet." Dian Yin gently stroked the fur of the Qilin, her smile becoming increasingly enigmatic.
Although Yui did not want to gamble with her, she felt she had to hold her ground. Raising her voice to mask her inner turmoil, she asked, "Alright, what are we betting on?"
"The princes are vying for the throne, but there is one standout—the Fourth Prince holds power over all the other princes. Most of them are dependent on him. Only the Sixth Prince opposes him, but he is a powerless prince. Our bet will be on these two princes." A flash of lightning crossed Dian Yin's eyes as the lightning mark on her forehead gradually became clearer. She threw her head back and laughed, "I am more capable than you. I will let you choose first; let's bet on who can help their prince ascend to the throne."
Yui pouted, thinking to herself that anyone would choose the Fourth Prince—how could she be so naive? Cautiously, she asked, "So what happens if we win?"
Dian Yin raised an eyebrow dismissively. "If you win, I will agree to do one thing for you—anything you want. If I win, during the coronation ceremony, you must give me your throne!"
Wow... Yui gasped at such a bold statement. The coronation was a ceremony held when their Nature Deity came of age; the throne was where the next Nature Deity heir could sit and receive blessings from the deity. Each throne competition was fierce and based on the merits accumulated during the previous Nature Deity's reign. This time happened to coincide with Yui's father receiving it.
