NOVPUBKatie informed Goddess Ely that the lurking traitor was just an insignificant rat that wasn’t worth mentioning, and that person had been appropriately handled.
Elysia expected no less from He-Dao. Even though she knew the so-called rat wasn’t the lurking danger from her divination, at least Heavenly Palace was a little safer from traitors.
However, the further information that Katie brought made her think momentarily. Something about the other heavenly principles besides He-Dao.
"My lady, they asked us to go to the heavenly hall now." Katie took out a golden talisman as she received a reminder directly from Heavenly Agent.
"Alright. Let’s go." Elysia put the information she had just received aside for the time being.
She adjusted her heavenly veil and changed her dress code to holy white-gold with an instant magic dress transformation.
After that, she led her little group towards the said heavenly hall. Unfortunately, she had yet to know where the gathering place was.
Her divine sense was reflected by the Heavenly Palace’s walls, blocking her sensitivity and perception.
Megami was also clueless because she never wandered around the Heavenly Palace. He-Dao and Heavenly Agents also didn’t send anyone to pick them up. Regardless, they got lost somewhere.
Elysia felt slightly embarrassed to say she lost because she took the lead. Just as she mustered her courage to give Katie a hint to lead the way, she sensed a large man in cool-looking brown armor with lots of suitcases was walking hurriedly from the other side.
All guests in the Heavenly Palace should go to the heavenly hall for a grand meeting. Her eyes sparkled because she could use him to take her to the heavenly hall.
She only had to say hello to him, and they could go to their destination together.
Elysia had just walked over to say hello. Yet, the big armored man suddenly handed over several large suitcases to her. She staggered back a little, but Zi Xuan immediately supported her back.
"Hey, you are so rude!" Zi Xuan exclaimed with great dissatisfaction.
"Phew, sorry. I was in a hurry and almost late for the grand heavenly conference. The Supreme Goddess and Lord of Heaven should be in the heavenly hall. Servants, please help me bring those gifts. I hope I’m not too late..." The big armored man wiped his sweat. Haste and anxiety were clearly plastered on his face.
He walked with big strides and suddenly stopped. "Come on, hurry up, or I’ll be late."
"..." Elysia looked at Zi Xuan and Katie questioningly.
"That big guy regards us as palace servants?" Katie was genuinely offended by that big armored man’s attitude. That guy couldn’t even recognize her. She held her divine wand, ready to hit that big armored man’s head.
"Well, he also has his own problems. Since he asked nicely and harbored no malice, let’s help him just this once." Elysia distributed the big suitcases to Zi Xuan and Katie.
She brought the smallest and lightest one. These suitcases might be a gift for the Lord of Heaven. Thus, they should not damage it, or they would be forced to compensate.
Zi Xuan and Katie looked at each other, feeling the Supreme Goddess was too kind.
At first, they didn’t know why Goddess Ely took them in circles and went nowhere. Goddess Ely might have had a personal reason for it, but that rude, big, armored man seemed to ruin it. Even so, Goddess Ely was still too kind!
Since Goddess Ely had spoken, then they couldn’t say much. They immediately followed the rude man to the heavenly hall.
At the same time, Amy and several palace servants had just arrived at the heavenly cultivation chamber to pick up the Supreme Goddess. However, they couldn’t find the Supreme Goddess anywhere.
Therefore, they frantically rushed to look for the Supreme Goddess everywhere.
Elysia, Zi Xuan, and Katie had no idea that the heavenly agent would escort them. However, they had already arrived at the heavenly hall nonetheless.
In the celestial splendor of the heavenly hall, a grand meeting was convened by the Lord of Heaven, drawing together a multitude of Gods, Goddesses, and Immortal beings from across eight Heavens.
The heavenly hall glowed with an ethereal radiance, imbued with the soft hues of celestial light. Golden pillars stretched skyward, adorned with intricate carvings depicting the celestial realms and the deeds of Heroic Gods.
Celestial attendants adorned in resplendent holy white-gold robes, bearing offerings of ambrosia and nectar, attended to the needs of the honored guests.
The Lord of Heaven sat at the center of the heavenly hall upon a magnificent celestial gold and silver throne. The ultimate figure of majestic splendor and divine authority. His presence commanded respect and admiration, radiating an aura of a supreme ruler that permeated the hall.
Surrounding the Lord of Heaven’s throne were the assembled Heavenly Agents, the peerless Goddesses of various divine authority. Their divine forms glowed with celestial aura, each bearing the symbols of their dominion and power.
Amid the divine assembly stood three Immortal Elders. The ancient beings of boundless wisdom and experience. Their presence provided an engaging atmosphere. Their ageless eyes observed the gathering with keen insight and understanding.
The influential figures under Heavenly Palace’s sovereignty were already present, but silence still enveloped the heavenly hall.
The Immortal Elders remained silent, and the Lord of Heaven still did not speak even though the event was supposed to start. The mentioned Supreme Goddess still has yet to arrive. The grand celestial throne next to the Lord of Heaven was still empty.
"Phew... I made it on time. Thank you, ladies. Please put those suitcases here." The big armored man breathed a sigh of relief to find the heavenly conference had not yet started. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Elysia, Zi Xuan, and Katie put the suitcases in the indicated direction.
There were already several other piles of gifts. Still, Elysia was surprised to find the palace attendants wearing a similar dress code as hers. Even though the color patterns were somewhat similar, her white-gold divine dress was more polite and elegant!
However, the other Gods and Immortals clad in their eye-catching divine attires, emitting a distinctive divine aura, flaunting their power.
She became the humble character at a grand party, including her low-key priestess. As for Katie, this Fate Goddess wore a casual Greek-like golden dress. They were a simple group compared to the others...
No wonder that big armored man mistook them for the palace servant.
The attendants roamed among the guests, ready to serve those esteemed guests.
Elysia looked for some random empty seat in the back row and sat there.
"You’re pretty late, old friend. Luckily, the event hasn’t started yet." The nearby golden ape greeted his old friend with a whisper.
"Haha, fortunately... Hmm? The Supreme Goddess isn’t here yet? Keke, my late arrival won’t leave a bad impression then." The big armored man laughed while rubbing his head. He sat down with great relief.
"!?" He-Dao, Heavenly Agents, and Immortal Elders gasped in surprise when they noticed the newly arrived group.
The Goddess they had been waiting for and had caused everyone to wait just sat casually in the back row like a random supporting character. She even looked at them with an innocent gaze!
’Holy... where is Agent Dark? Why did the Supreme Goddess come to the heavenly hall unescorted?’ He-Dao glanced aside, questioning his Heavenly Agents.
’My Lord, this is urgent! I can’t find the Supreme Goddess anywhere!’ Amy received the voice transmission, feeling panicked because she knew that she couldn’t escape the blame.
’There’s no need to look further. Her Grace has come to the heavenly hall. Oh dear me... Her priestess and Fate Goddess accompanied her. Did you never tell them about the arrangement?’ He-Dao held his forehead, feeling dizzy all of a sudden.
’Amy is in charge, but Her Grace stayed in the cultivation chamber almost all the time, My Lord. Allow me to take responsibility for her errors and omissions.’ Yuna explained the situation, taking the blame for Amy.
’Sigh, no one is to blame. I hope Her Grace will not be offended because of this.’ He-Dao let out a subtle sigh and rose from his throne.
His sudden movement immediately attracted everyone’s attention, but he ignored everything and flew closer to the Supreme Goddess.
Yuna followed her Lord as she also felt responsible for it.
The Lord of Heaven and the highest Agent of Heaven suddenly approached the back seat, leaving many Gods and Immortals wondering. They had gathered and waited for several minutes, wondering what would happen there.
"Lord... Greetings, My Lord!" The big armored man immediately greeted the Lord of Heaven in cold sweat, worried that his late arrival would bring trouble to himself.
The golden ape nearby also gave respectful greetings to the Heavenly Emperor. Yet, he immediately distanced himself from his old friend for fear of getting into trouble.
He-Dao only glanced at the nearby big guy and golden ape, but he just passed them and stopped beside Goddess Ely. "My lady, why are you here? We have been waiting for your arrival."
"Can’t I have this seat? Also, I’m not your lady." Elysia responded in a graceful and calm tone.
"You are the most prominent divinity. We have prepared a place for you." He-Dao laughed lightly and stretched out his hand.
"Um..." Elysia heaved a subtle sigh when everyone immediately drew attention to her. She had prepared herself mentally and accepted He-Dao’s offer to escort her to the place that had been prepared for her.
She offered her hand, and He-Dao escorted her, but Agent Amy suddenly came and immediately apologized.
"I’m sorry for being late for your escort, my lady! I looked for you everywhere, but I couldn’t find you. Priestess Xuan, you never told me." Amy bowed in apology, but she didn’t forget to throw the blame onto the nearby clueless priestess.
"Is it my fault? We were wandering around on our way here, but a big guy suddenly threw his suitcases at us. He was also so rude as to treat us as servants. Do you believe that? Luckily, my master is so gentle and benevolent." Zi Xuan blinked her eyes in surprise and pointed her finger at the nearby big armored man.
"Hum, that’s right!" Katie nodded in agreement.
"What!?" The big armored man exclaimed in surprise.
This veiled lady in a gold-white dress wasn’t the palace’s attendant, let alone a servant. She was the honorable divinity who even made the Lord of Heaven have to come down personally to escort her! This lady was obviously the Supreme Goddess!
"Hm?" He-Dao frowned, suppressing the offender with Emperor-level pressure.
The Heavenly Emperor’s aura was so strong, causing the offender to be rooted to the ground. It also affected surrounding Gods and Immortals, making them suffocated.
"What are you doing? I’m not familiar with this heavenly conference. Tell me more about it." Elysia pinched He-Dao’s arm with a painful twist and spoke to Yuna, causing He-Dao’s pressure to break instantly.
"My lady, this is a list of events and discussion topics." Yuna immediately handed over the list.
Elysia retracted her hand from He-Dao’s grasp to receive the list. She skimmed through it and stopped at the peak event. "The Nirvana Air Time? What does that mean?"
"That is a divine artifact, my lady. We will gift it to you so you can record and broadcast what you see behind the Nirvana Seal with your mythical divine eyes." Yuna explained a little.
"Hm..." Elysia nodded in understanding, and then Yuna escorted her to the center of the heavenly hall.
"..." He-Dao rubbed his arm with an awkward expression. Goddess Ely was not offended by the ignorant’s offenses, but that twist pinch was quite painful.
The big armored man immediately knelt down to apologize profusely, and Elysia forgave him just this once. The case was closed, and the big armored man felt too embarrassed because he had left the worst impression on the Supreme Goddess of Mysterious Origin.
He wished to hide in a hole but couldn’t just leave there. Thus, he covered his head with a paper bag because he felt too embarrassed to show his face.
Nobody could help him if the Supreme Goddess was angry. Fortunately, she was so merciful.
