Sang Ye said, “My grandfather once told me that the sun being eaten is an ominous sign. A calamity will definitely descend in the future.”

His maternal grandfather was the former high priest of the Dark Moon Temple. What his grandfather said was very credible.

Bai Di connected the dots to a series of recent events and analyzed, “Could the heavens be hinting at the invasion of the demons?”

Xue Ling tidied his sleeves and said slowly, “If that’s the case, this is very bad.”

With the invasion of the demons, there would be another war on the beast continent. At that time, lives would be lost. Who knew how many more beasts would die?

Shuang Yun said heavily, “If the rock mountain can’t hold on anymore, take Huanhuan and the children away and go somewhere no one knows about.”

Big Goody quickly asked, “What about you? Aren’t you coming with us?”

Shuang Yun stroked her head and smiled calmly. “As the leader, of course, I have to stay and protect my home with my life.”

“Then I want to stay and fight with you!”

Dos, Tres, and Little Monster also echoed, “We want to stay and fight together!”

Shuang Yun smiled in relief as he hugged the four children.

Huanhuan coughed lightly and interrupted the sad atmosphere between them. She said helplessly, “It’s just an eclipse. Don’t make it look like the end of the world, okay?”

Everyone was stunned.

“An eclipse?”

It was the first time they had heard the word, and they found it incomprehensible.

Huanhuan explained, “A solar eclipse is a natural phenomenon. It has nothing to do with demons, and it has nothing to do with ominous omens. Don’t worry about it.”

Shuang Yun still couldn’t believe it. “But the sun has already been eaten. Isn’t that an ominous sign?”

“The sun hasn’t been eaten. It’s just temporarily blocked by the moon. It’ll come out in a while.”

“Are you telling the truth?”

Huanhuan had no choice but to teach them science.

After she finished speaking, their expressions did not change much, but they were all shocked.

They did not know that they were living on a ball, and the ball was spinning.

The principle of rotation was simply unbelievable.

Xue Ling narrowed his eyes. “If the truth is as Huanhuan said, we can make use of this matter.”

As soon as she saw him like this, Huanhuan knew that he was up to no good again.

“What do you want now?”

Xue Ling said, “You’re now a witch doctor of the Rock Wolf Tribe. Do you know what a witch doctor is? When witchcraft and medicine are combined, that’s what a witch doctor is. Your current medical skills are obvious to all. Everyone has seen you put your medical skills to use. But you’ve barely used your witchcraft. You need to strengthen it.”

Huanhuan muttered softly, “I don’t know any witchcraft to begin with.”

“The principle of the eclipse you just mentioned can become a form of witchcraft.”

“Huh?”

Xue Ling told her his plan, “We’ll hold a sacrifice and you’ll host it. After the sacrifice and when the sun appears again, everyone will think it’s all your doing.”

After Huanhuan heard this, she quickly waved her hand. “That won’t do. I don’t know how to preside over sacrifices at all.”

Xue Ling smiled, his handsome face shining like the sun. “This is a great opportunity. It can help increase your reputation in the tribe. If anything happens in the future, you won’t even have to appear. You just have to say a word and everyone will listen to you.”

“But I’ll be lying!”

“It’s not lying. It’s using the most efficient way to solve a problem reasonably.”

Huanhuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You’re quibbling. I can explain the principle of the solar eclipse to them again. That can solve the problem.”

But Bai Di said, “Even if you explain, they won’t believe you.”

“Why?”

“What you’re saying is so amazing. They won’t understand it. They’ll think you’re talking nonsense. We’re willing to believe you not because we think those principles are reliable but because we believe you.”

But it was different for the other beasts.

They obviously believed in ghosts and gods more than in science.

Huanhuan had nothing to say. She could only remain silent.

Those were inherent thoughts that had been formed for a long time. It was impossible for her to change their mindsets with just a few words.

Shuang Yun decided. “Let’s do as Xue Ling said. I’ll get someone to prepare the things needed for the sacrifice.”

Sang Ye nodded slightly in agreement.

Huanhuan was still very hesitant. As an upright young woman, her childhood education had told her not to believe in ghosts and gods. Now, she had to pretend to be a psychic to deceive others. She felt awkward.

At this moment, a system notification suddenly sounded in her mind.

“Congratulations to the host for triggering a random mission. Please host a sacrifice. After the mission is completed, the mission reward will be given directly!”

Huanhuan was instantly speechless.

Even the mission required her to preside over the sacrifice. In order to get the reward, she had to do it!

“All right.” Her shoulders drooped in resignation as she agreed to preside over a sacrificial ritual.

While everyone went to prepare the things needed for the sacrifice, she slowly lowered her voice and said, “Little Brat, why did you suddenly give me a sacrificial mission? I don’t know how to host a sacrifice at all. Will I mess it up later?”

The system said leisurely, “Sacrificial rituals are actually very simple. You just have to go over and sing and dance.”

Huanhuan was speechless. “But I can’t sing or dance either.”

“I’ll teach you.”

Huanhuan was very surprised. “You can sing and dance?!”

The system was very proud. “As the best system, I’m omniscient!”

“That’s awesome, Daddy!”

The system smiled. “Come, I’ll transmit a teaching video of the dance to your mind. Just follow me later.”

…

Shuang Yun took the iron pot out of the house and walked out. He stood in the square and knocked twice.

The loud bangs quickly spread throughout the mountain.

Huanhuan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She hurriedly reminded him, “Be gentle. We only have one pot at home. If it’s broken, what will we eat tonight?!”

Shuang Yun smiled. “Don’t worry, I know my limits. I won’t break it.”

As he knocked, he walked toward the square, shouting from time to time.

“Everyone, gather in the square immediately. The witch doctor has something to say about the sun being eaten!”

At Shuang Yun’s call, the beasts came and gathered in the square.

The sun had just been eaten. At this moment, the world outside was dark. All the beasts were uneasy.

They were all hiding at home and did not dare to go out. Just now, they heard the sound of an iron pot being knocked on. Coupled with the fact that Patriarch Shuang Yun and the witch doctor had something to say, everyone braced themselves and walked out of their house.

They all wanted to know why the sun had been eaten.

Could there really be demons?
