Bab 287: 167. The mastermind behind the scenes is actually her?!

The wind chimes swayed, emitting a tinkling sound.

The Ancient Goddess sat at the very center of the Divine Temple built of piled stones, with the serene sunlight falling on her jade-like flawless fair face, outlining a beautiful circle of contours.

"Who?"

In an instant, she opened her eyes and looked towards the entrance of the temple.

Above the Star Vault, a peerless and elegant youth with hands behind his back was walking on clouds towards her.

The gentle breeze knelt before him like a subject, lifting his black hair, kissing his robe, making him appear even more ethereal and out of this world.

"The Divine Child, His Highness? What is he doing here?"

The eyes of the Ancient Goddess, as cold and unmelting as a thousand-year-old frozen pond, couldn't help but ripple.

Not that she was surprised.
