Although he had already discovered that Zhao Yanyun no longer had a heartbeat or breath, he believed that Emperor Ye Tian would not joke about such matters.
Since Emperor Ye Tian said Zhao Yanyun was not dead, then it was possible she really was not dead.
"Your Majesty, you just said she is not dead, what exactly do you mean?" Xu Nian took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
"This girl was indeed about to die, but she had previously received the inheritance of the Battle Emperor. That inheritance contained the Spiritual Sense Power of the Battle Emperor, and it was this sliver of Spiritual Sense Power that kept her soul inside her body, thus preserving her from death," Emperor Ye Tian explained.
Xu Nian suddenly nodded in realization, so it was the inheritance that preserved her soul.
This was absolutely a stroke of luck for Zhao Yanyun, or she really might have died.
