Chapter 965

"Titans are the old gods of Weng Faluos, humanity's former faith, now our enemies." Bai'e explained, "The Golden Descendants are the saviors foretold to flow with golden blood."

Thus: 【"Titan is the old god of Weng Faluos, once the faith of humanity, now the enemy." Bai'e explained, "The Golden Descendants are the saviors foretold to flow with golden blood."】

But need to keep the name Bai'e (from glossary? Not provided but we need to romanize as per rule: it's a person's name, so pinyin: Bai'e). The glossary didn't list it, but we must use pinyin for person names. So Bai'e.

Similarly Golden Descendants

Thus line 【1】 output: 【1】 "Titan is the old god of Weng Faluos, once the faith of humanity, now the enemy." Bai'e explained, "The Golden Descendants are the saviors foretold to flow with golden blood."

Make sure no extra punctuation beyond original? We'll keep as is.
