Exquisite wine, jade dew, rare delicacies.
The cool, white jade table was surrounded by the unique mist of the God Race. It was like standing in a heavenly palace.
Yale, Pilar, and Yale chatted merrily, toasting each other. From time to time, they gazed at the beautiful scenery, as if they were close friends.
After three rounds of wine.
Yale gently placed the wine cup on the white jade table. When the bottom of the wine cup, which was also made of white jade, touched the surface of the table, it made a crisp sound.
Ye Zichen and Pilar, who'd been distracted to begin with, put down their glasses, only to see Yale raise his glass high into the air and toast to Pilar.
"Demon King, this is a toast to you."
Pilar raised his cup in response. Yale also opened his mouth at this moment.
"I know you're broad-minded and don't want to bring up the matter of your clan's extermination. It's just that you trusted me so much, yet you ended up like this. I really can't get over it. Take this cup of wine as my apology. I hope you'll do me the honor …. "
"If you really feel bad, why don't you cripple your own divine power and join me?"
Yale's face froze. Pilar looked into Yale's eyes.
Before long, their eyes met and they couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Their laughter puzzled the nearby attendants, but they quickly retracted their grins.
"The Demon King likes to joke, as always."
"We can't let the atmosphere we've worked so hard to heat up die down just because of your words, can we?"
Pilar glanced at the wine in his cup, then poured it into a nearby pond.
As soon as the nectar fell into the pond, it attracted groups of fish to crazily fight for the nectar in the pond. The water in the pool continued to churn, and Pilar placed the cup on the table at the same time.
"I won't drink this wine. If I did, I'd be letting down my clansmen. The God King of Destruction doesn't need to worry about me. No matter who I was before, I'm now a cripple. "
"That's true. I wasn't thinking things through. In that case, I won't drink."
The wine glass was placed on the table. Just as Yale sat up straight, a waiter brought him a pure white handkerchief. He gave the waiter a meaningful look, and the waiter brought them both a piece of cake.
"Star Lord Ye, I've always had a question in my heart."
"Feel free to speak your mind."
The handkerchief was casually thrown to the ground by Yale, and the waiter beside him immediately rushed over and bent over to pick it up. When Ye Zichen saw this, he squinted his eyes. Yale smiled, "Don't worry.
"You seem to be an old acquaintance of mine, the War Goddess?"
"War Goddess?"
Ye Zichen arched his brows, confusion flashing through his eyes.
This was Ye Zichen's first visit to the God Realm. He'd never even heard of the War Goddess, so how could he possibly know her?
It wasn't like he hadn't heard of it before …
There was a goddess of war in Greek mythology, but that was just a myth. How could he know her?
"I wonder who the Godly King of Destruction is referring to?"
"Don't tell me you don't know her? She's the only female Chief God in my Divine Palace. She's my subordinate, the War Goddess. Earlier, I saw Star Lord Ye exchange glances with her, and the way they looked at each other definitely didn't feel like they didn't know each other. Could it be that I was mistaken? "said Yale.
"You mean …."
Ye Zichen understood. He remembered that female Chief God.
It was just as Yale said: they'd exchanged glances since entering the Divine Palace. The main reason was that the female Chief God looked at him strangely.
Unfortunately, he had no impression of her at all. He'd only glanced at her a few times.
He hadn't expected Yale to notice even that. Either he cared a lot about Ye Zichen, or he cared a lot about that female Chief God.
"I don't know her. This is my first time meeting the War Goddess. Perhaps it's because she looks rather familiar, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances. "
"Intimate, huh? Star Lord Ye is indeed extraordinary." Yale laughed loudly.
"What?"
"Ever since the War Goddess returned to the God Realm, she's treated everyone with cold indifference. Even I'm an outsider, yet Star Lord Ye says she's familiar? How could she be ordinary? "
"Maybe I sensed wrongly."
Ye Zichen shook his head and smiled, then looked at Yale.
"It seems the God King of Destruction cares a lot about that female Chief God."
"To tell you the truth, she's my sweetheart."
Yale didn't try to hide it. In truth, everyone in the God Palace of Destruction knew about his feelings for the War Goddess.
The attendants didn't find it strange, and their expressions remained the same. Ye Zichen smiled in understanding, hurriedly picked up his cup, and filled it to the brim.
"I never would have guessed it was the God King of Destruction's sweetheart. I lost my composure, so I'll punish myself with a cup. I hope you won't take offense."
Ye Zichen ignored Yale's raised hand and drained his cup in one gulp.
When he saw that his cup was empty, Yale could only lower his hand and shake his head helplessly with a sigh. However, at that moment, he sensed a deep, fierce gaze directed at him like a sharp sword.
He looked ahead and saw Ye Zichen squinting at him, his cheeks rosy.
"Star Lord Ye?"
"God King of Destruction." Ye Zichen's gaze was sincere as he looked at the God King of Destruction. "We've come, and we've drunk. You should know why we're here. Isn't it about time you fulfilled your promise?"
Yale froze. He stared at Ye Zichen for a long time, then smiled meaningfully.
"Star Lord Ye's promise, I …."
"Will the God King of Destruction release Xiao Yumei and the others and my brothers?"
… …
Unbeknownst to them, a servant girl was intentionally eavesdropping on their conversation some distance away from the banquet table.
"Will the God King of Destruction release Xiao Yumei and the others and my brothers?"
Although she was far away, Ye Zichen's question reached the servant girl's ears without missing a single word.
"Xiao Yumei? Why does that name sound so familiar …. "
Suddenly, the servant girl's eyes widened. Her shocked expression caused the other attendants to look in her direction.
When she sensed everyone's attention, the servant girl hurriedly feigned pain.
"Um …. I'm feeling a bit unwell, so I'll leave things here to you. I want to go back and rest …."
"This …. His Excellency the God King, he …."
"No, I really can't take it anymore. Even if I stay here, it'll be hard for me to serve the God King and his esteemed guests …."
In order to convince the others, the servant girl secretly circulated her divine power in reverse.
