Lin Yan looked at the man and asked.
"This..."
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically, revealing a hint of joy as he whispered, "Could it be that our Human Clan has decided to launch a counterattack against the Demon Domain?"
"It can only be considered a retaliation for now."
Lin Yan said, "But in the future, we will surely strike back and reclaim it."
The middle-aged man showed a trace of happiness, then nodded firmly.
Those chosen back then as offerings either thought their lives were over, bid farewell to their families, and wept bitterly; or they felt privileged to be sacrificed to the Divine Spirit, bringing glory to their ancestors, and leapt with joy.

Unexpectedly, in this moment, it finally became useful.
