The attendants of the palace all knew Yale's temperament. In order to prevent the maid from being punished, the other attendants carefully covered for her and allowed her to leave through the back door.
After confirming that the maidservant had left safely, the attendants continued with their work in an orderly manner.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Outside the Northern God Clan's God of Destruction Palace, a blur nimbly traversed through the clouds.
To be able to maintain such speed in such a dense fog, it was clear that this person had long since known the surroundings of the God of Destruction Palace.
"Xiao Yumei, if I remember correctly, big sister has always been muttering this name," the blur said in a low voice.
A whisper could be heard from the afterimage. The person shuttling through the clouds was none other than Lin Yuan's maidservant.
Although the maid was very anxious, she kept an eye on her surroundings as she traversed through the streets. After a few twists and turns, she circled around a building more than ten times before she found a secret door and went in.
Behind the door was a plainly decorated boudoir. There was a woman pacing back and forth in the room.
Her eyes flickered with panic, and she clenched her fists tightly. She bit her lips so hard that a row of teeth marks appeared.
"Big sister!"
"Why did you come back? If Yale discovers you again, even if I accept you as my adopted sister, I won't be able to save you."
A fierce expression flashed across the woman's face. She was none other than the War Goddess, one of the twelve Master Gods under Yale.
Although the maid was indeed one of her people, Yale had discovered her once.
Fortunately, she had taken her in as her sworn sister, and Yale had spared the maid's life for her sake. Now that the maid had secretly returned to her god's residence, if Yale discovered her, the problem would be severe.
Although she reprimanded her, the War Goddess's concern for the maid was real.
When she saw the maid's pale face, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to check her meridians.
"Why is the divine power in your body so chaotic? Who bullied you?"
"Big sister, don't worry about me. I did it myself." The maidservant pulled on the War Goddess's hand. When the War Goddess saw her anxious expression, she frowned. The maidservant said, "Big sister, do you know someone called Xiao Yumei?"
"Who is she?"
"What's there to hide between you and me?" "Just now, when I was serving the God King of Destruction, that Star Lord from the Third Epoch mentioned this name."
"Him? What did he say? "
"The God King of Destruction should have captured Xiao Yumei and many others. They are here to ask for them!"
…
…
…
The cloud and smoke dispersed in an instant.
A speck of white light floated in the air. The dim light made the garden slightly brighter.
Ye Zichen and the others had come here for Xiao Yumei and the others, but the God King of Destruction still hadn't mentioned it. This made Ye Zichen rather anxious.
The God King of Destruction smiled when he heard this. This smile was very strange and no one could tell what he was thinking.
Then he placed his fingers on the white jade table and began to knock on it, causing the already anxious Ye Zichen's emotions to fluctuate even more intensely.
"Godly King of Destruction, it can't be that you don't want to release him, right?"
As he spoke, Ye Zichen's expression completely darkened. His solemn expression was so dark that it seemed like it could drip water at any moment.
If the God King of Destruction had gone back on his word, then the letter was a trap.
Ye Zichen accepted it. For the sake of Xiao Yumei and the others' safety, he was willing to put himself in danger. At worst, it would just be a life-and-death struggle.
Whoosh!
A staff appeared out of thin air in Gou Yuzhan's hands. As it streaked through the air, it whistled through the air.
The attendants in the garden hurriedly took a few steps back. At the same time, several people appeared by Yale's side and glared fiercely at Ye Zichen and the others.
"It seems Your Excellency, the God King, is really going back on his word."
Ye Zichen, who'd never held out hope, smiled coolly. The people behind Yale were the best proof of that.
If Yale had truly wanted to invite them to a banquet, he would've let Xiao Yumei and the others go after the banquet. Then, as soon as Gou Yuzhan took out his weapon, his subordinates, who'd left long ago, wouldn't have appeared behind him.
This was all premeditated!
Right now, he didn't care about his own survival. When he'd decided to come to the God Realm, he'd prepared for the worst.
However, Yin Shang and Gou Yuzhan originally had nothing to do with them, yet they'd been dragged into this mess. Earlier, Gou Yuzhan had said that even he wasn't completely confident in facing off against these overgods.
What's more, eleven overgods had appeared behind Yale …..
The only one missing was the Goddess of War!
"Master of the Stars, it seems they're ready to attack. In a moment, Yuzhan and I will burn our starlight. Although we might not be their match, we can delay them for a while. Take advantage of the chaos to escape. "
Yin Shang's divine sense transmission appeared in Ye Zichen's sea of consciousness. Ye Zichen looked at him. By now, Yin Shang's eyes were filled with the power of the stars. Amidst their dazzling brilliance, Ye Zichen could even see a wisp of fire.
It seemed he was ready to burn his starlight to buy Ye Zichen time to retreat.
"God King of Destruction ….."
"Stand down!"
After a long silence, Yale turned to the overgods behind him and roared angrily.
"Master, these people want to hurt you ….."
"What a joke. The Epoch Star Lord and the Fiend King are my honored guests, and they were invited here. If the Fiend King wants to attack me, I can understand. But I have no enmity with Celestial Lord Ji Yuan. Why would Celestial Lord Ji Yuan want to kill me? "
Yale barked harshly, and the eleven Sovereigns behind him all lowered their eyes and took two steps back.
At that moment, Yale turned around and cupped his fists towards Ye Zichen apologetically.
"Planet Lord Epoch, I have offended you. My subordinates are too insensible and have startled you. I will punish myself with a cup of wine."
Without waiting for an explanation, Yale filled his cup and downed it in one gulp.
The wine cup was placed on the table with a clink. Yale even used his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth in a forthright manner.
"I understand that Star Lord Epoch came here for the sake of a beauty. However, this Seat has been friends with Star Lord Ye for a long time, which is why I wanted to drink a few more cups. Who knew that Star Lord would be so impatient. It seems that Star Lord does not trust this Seat. "
Ye Zichen did not reply. Yale let out a long sigh.
"Never mind. Since Star Lord Ye doesn't want to drink with me, then I won't force you. Being able to witness the Star Lord's glory today can be considered fulfilling my wish. How about this, the pain ….. "
"This subordinate is here!"
"Go and invite the guests of the Third Era over. Tell them to return with Star Lord Ye."
"Understood!"
