Her gaze lowered and fell on the black haired young man's face. He had handsome facial features, thick black eyebrows stuck to his brow bone. His thin lips were frozen white, like two sharp blades. There was not the slightest trace of blood on his handsome face.
She glanced at him and the gentle light in her eyes gradually faded. She secretly wondered what was wrong with her that she would inexplicably save this boy. Her lips curled into a bitter smile, then she shook her head and turned around to return to her room.
"Sis ….. Sis ….." The black haired boy's mouth suddenly emitted a weak and difficult voice.
This voice was like an invisible rope, forcibly stopping the silhouette of the silver white robed woman.
… …
Light Temple, pavilion.
Scalding rays of light shone down from the sky and landed on Ye Zhu, who was standing at the door, causing her jet-black hair to shine a little. Her gaze, however, was fixed on the hall of the pavilion, where there was a towering giant stone statue. This stone statue was about eighty feet tall, and it wore a holy white robe that resembled white gauze. On its head, there was a white princess crown that was inlaid with sparkling gemstones that resembled ice crystals. Its soft blue hair blew behind its back, and its slender body had an elegant beauty to it.
However, what Ye Zhu was really looking at was the face of the stone statue.
This face was very delicate and pretty, and it was exactly the same as her face.
She looked for a long time before she realized that her eyes were not playing tricks on her. Her heart was filled with shock and confusion. She walked in and came in front of the stone statue. Carefully looking at it, she discovered that there was a beam on the top of the stone statue, with a few words engraved on it: Goddess of Light!
"Goddess of Light?
Are you talking about yourself? "
Ye Zhu was somewhat confused. From the memories of her previous life that she obtained after awakening, although it was incomplete, it said that she was the tenth envoy of the Goddess of Light. There were a total of ten envoys, and she was the last one. In the last Great Sage War, because her ranking was too low, she did not encounter the enemy's pursuit. She was lucky enough to escape and enter the Gate of Reincarnation, then reincarnated.
"Why ….. do I look exactly the same as this Goddess of Light?"
Ye Zhu was a little confused. She clearly knew that she was the tenth Emissary of Light. In the past, she had followed many other Emissaries into battle and conquered many territories for the Goddess of Light.
However, the Goddess of Light in his memory was a very blurry face. He didn't expect her to look exactly like him!
"Goddess of Light." A soft voice suddenly came from behind.
Ye Zhu turned her head to look. Against the light at the door, the Lord of the Light Palace stood leaning against the wind. Her exquisite face was filled with respect and piety, as well as joy. She lowered her head and said respectfully, "The 16th Lord of the Light Palace greets the goddess."
As she spoke, she slowly knelt down and gently kowtowed. Her forehead was on the ground, and she did not use any energy. Dust stuck to her smooth forehead, making her pure and elegant look somewhat cute.
Ye Zhu wasn't surprised, as though she had known that she would be standing there. She waved her hand and said, "Get up. I'm not the Goddess of Light. I'm just the Emissary of Light."
The body of the Lord of the Light Palace was supported up by a gentle energy. It was as though a gentle hand had wiped away the dust on her forehead.
"You're not the goddess?" The pupils of the Lord of the Light Palace contracted, somewhat stunned. "But, but..."
Ye Zhu said indifferently, "I know that I'm very similar to the Goddess of Light, but it's only in appearance. I'm not the goddess, and I don't dare to pretend to be the goddess. Therefore, from now on, you're not allowed to call me 'goddess', or else..." Her fingers moved, and the Lord of the Light Palace felt a cold sensation on her neck, as though a hand was gripping her neck.
Her body trembled slightly, and her heart was in turmoil. She hurriedly nodded and said, "I understand. Lord Emissary, I'm unfilial. I've offended the dignity of the goddess. Lord Emissary, please punish me."
"Forget it." Ye Zhu waved her hand dismissively.
The Lord of the Light Palace felt as though she had been pardoned. She carefully lifted her head to look at Ye Zhu, and said respectfully, "I heard from the elders that the Goddess of Light had appeared. I knew that if the Goddess of Light had really returned, she would definitely come here to take a look. Therefore, I sent away the servants and guards, and as expected, I met the Lord Emissary here."
"How did you know that I would come here?" Ye Zhu glanced at her indifferently.
The Lord of the Light Palace said respectfully, "According to the records of the first Lord of the Light Palace, from the ancient scroll, the sword of the Goddess of Light is sealed under this pavilion. If you're the Goddess of Light, you would definitely be summoned by the Divine Sword of Light and come here."
Ye Zhu was taken aback. "The sword of the Goddess of Light is here?"
The Lord of the Light Palace nodded respectfully. "Yes, according to the records of the ancient scroll, the Goddess of Light had fallen in the Great Saint War. Her corpse was sealed in the snow region, and her sword fell out. It was picked up by the first Lord of the Light Palace. She used her supreme power to seal the Divine Sword of Light, and waited here for the return of the Goddess of Light.
The first Lord of the Light Palace was a female servant of the Goddess of Light. She obtained the favor of the Goddess of Light and rewarded her with a little power. Therefore, she loved the Goddess of Light very much, and before she died, she planted an eternal curse. Every Lord of the Light Palace must unconditionally obey the Goddess of Light, as well as the ten emissaries that follow behind her.
Unless one's strength reaches the seventh level of the epoch realm, one can break this eternal curse. Because the first Lord of the Light Palace was only at the peak of the epoch realm. "
Ye Zhu nodded slightly and glanced at her. "If you rely on the Divine Sword of Light, with your strength, you should be able to move unhindered across the entire ancient continent. It shouldn't be a problem for you to destroy the entire dark world, right?"
The Lord of the Light Palace shook her head and said respectfully, "How can the Goddess of Light's sword be something that I can wear? Moreover, the Divine Sword of Light is wrapped in a huge sealing crystal. Without the strength of the Virtual Sky World, it is impossible to break it. Even if one has a Virtual Sky World weapon, without the unique power of a Virtual Sky World expert to activate it, one cannot exert the power of the Virtual Sky World weapon. For example, the Nine Great Emperors could only exert a little of the power of the Virtual Sky World."
"That's right."
Ye Zhu raised her head and looked closely at the Goddess of Light. "Where is the snow region where the corpse of the Goddess of Light is buried?"
"The snow region is located in the Ice Snow Empire in the southeast of the ancient continent. The snow region is a natural crack in space. It contains the coldest ice and snow in the world. Any creature below the level of God Emperor who approaches it will be instantly frozen into ice crystals and lose their lives.
This is only the outermost region of the snow region. If one goes deeper, they may encounter snow beasts in the snow region. No one has ever dared to explore this region. Even the most advanced satellites can't transmit signals and are directly frozen. "
The Lord of the Light Palace seemed to see the snow region in front of him. His eyes were filled with fear as he said in a trembling voice, "The snow region is a famous forbidden area in the entire ancient continent. No one dares to enter."
Even signals can be frozen?
Ye Zhu's eyes narrowed slightly. "With your strength, how long do you think you can survive in there?"
The Goddess of Light was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head and thought for a moment. Then she said, "If I stay in place and don't wander around, I can only live for three days. If I want to move around, I can't guarantee that. If I'm unlucky and encounter a snow beast, I'll probably be killed in an instant."
Ye Zhu's brows furrowed slightly, then she nodded. She said, "I understand."
The Lord of the Light Palace secretly glanced at her. "Lord Messenger, are you prepared to go?"
Ye Zhu nodded very naturally. "Of course."
The Lord of the Light Palace's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly said, "Lord Messenger, the snow region is extremely dangerous. Although you're powerful, you can't easily barge in. It's just the outermost region and it's already so dangerous. If you go deeper, who knows what it will be like. This place has been considered a forbidden area by the major forces since a very, very long time ago. Because it's an absolute forbidden area, no one knows of its existence."
Ye Zhu waved her hand. "Don't say anymore. No matter what, we must find the body of the Goddess."
The Lord of the Light Palace looked at her stubborn expression and felt anxious. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He hurriedly said, "Since that's the case, Lord Messenger, you should bring the sword of the Goddess of Light over. This way, you'll have a better chance."
"No need."
Ye Zhu shook her head and refused. "Only she can wear the sword of the Goddess. How would I dare to offend her? Being disrespectful to the Goddess is a capital offense!"
The Lord of the Light Palace knew that what she said was right. She rolled her eyes and said, "Lord Messenger, although we can't use the sword of the Goddess, but at this critical moment, these things can be crossed. Moreover, you can rely on the sword of the Goddess to find the body of the Goddess. This is a great merit. Moreover, you can take the sword to find the Goddess. When you find it, you can give it to the Goddess and bury it with the Goddess' body. This can be considered returning it to its rightful owner!"
Ye Zhu frowned slightly. She thought for a moment and thought that what he said was right. She said, "Alright, where is the sword of the Goddess?"
Seeing that she agreed, the Lord of the Light Palace's face lit up. He hurriedly said, "Follow me, it's at the bottom of this pavilion."
She led the way and opened a mechanism. The wall behind the stone statue of the Goddess of Light opened. There was a ripple-like circle of light. She took the lead and walked in.
Under the lead of the Lord of the Light Palace, the two of them walked into the underground passage. In the narrow and dark passage, there were oil lamps hanging on the walls. The warm yellow light shone on the stairs.
They walked down the stairs, passed through a long corridor, and then turned into a wide open space. As soon as they walked over, Ye Zhu saw a huge blue ice crystal. It looked like a demonic lotus that grew on the ground. There were many tiny water chestnuts on the surface, shining with light.
In this huge blue ice crystal, there was a white beam of light frozen. This beam of light was like a crack in the ice crystal. It was impossible to see the shape of a sword. It was twenty to thirty feet long, like a beam of frozen white light.
