0The white figure slowly descended from the sky, carrying a flowery silver mask on her nose. Her long black hair was half-combed, half-draped. Her skin was crystal clear, and her figure wasn't tall. It was obvious that she was a woman.    

    

Her white clothes were embroidered with silver threads that emitted a faint light in the morning light. It was as if her body was emitting a light that would cause anyone who looked at her to feel respect towards her.    

    

Her aura was one that no one had ever seen before. It was dignified and ethereal, as though she possessed the might of the heavens. She was clearly a weak girl, but the onlookers' hearts sank as they subconsciously lowered their heads.    

    

The woman lightly tapped her foot on the altar and finally landed on it. She looked down.    

    

Everyone present did not dare to look at him. Especially when they thought about the priest's ability to communicate with the heaven and earth, they all bowed slightly and said in unison, "Greetings, High Priest."    

    

As the High Priest was a person of faith, his position had nothing to do with it.    

    

Hence, one person in the crowd who had his head lifted up was extremely sudden, and that person was none other than Hua Ruge.    

    

She did not lower her head because of arrogance, but because she was stunned.    

    

The High Priest was much smaller than the adult lady in front of him. If one were to throw away the Sacred Halo on her body, one would be able to see that she was a young lady in her teens. Although she was wearing a mask, Hua Ruge could immediately recognize her.    

    

This was none other than Lan Bing'er who stayed by his side after being saved by his successor.    

    

Lan Bing'er's neck slightly turned, and the gaze behind the mask met Hua Ruge's.    

    

Hua Ruge smiled at her and finally let out a sigh of relief.    

    

It was not because Lan Bing'er had achieved what she had achieved today, but because she was fine.    

    

Lan Bing'er's face did not reveal any expression, but the emotions in his eyes had already churned, if not for his current identity, he would have thrown himself into Hua Ruge's embrace already.    

    

Hua Ruge shook his head at her.    

    

Lan Bing'er subtly nodded his head, sucked in a deep breath to calm his emotions, and said: "Everyone doesn't need to be so courteous."    

    

Everyone raised their heads, only to realize that Hua Ruge had not moved.    

    

The Emperor fiercely glared at her with a panicked expression on his face.    

    

"How dare you be so arrogant! How can you be so presumptuous in front of the High Priest?" The emperor scolded in a low voice.    

    

Hua Ruge said unconcernedly: "The High Priest will not blame you."    

    

"If you are to be blamed for bearing the responsibility, don't implicate the Zheng." The Emperor said hatefully.    

    

Before Hua Ruge could say anything, Su Yingxue who was at the side heard him and said loudly: "You actually dare not bow, you really do not put the High Priest in your eyes at all."    

    

She was afraid that others would not be able to hear her voice.    

    

But these words had a huge impact, everyone heard it and looked at Hua Ruge as if they were looking at a dead person.    

    

He said that he did not know that the Great Yu Dynasty Emperor was being courteous to the High Priest, but Hua Ruge did not give him any face, so if word of this got out, he would definitely not end up well.    

    

Su Yingxue looked at Hua Ruge proudly.    

    

"The more ugly you are, the more trouble you will commit." Hua Ruge's voice was light.    

    

The smile on Su Yingxue's face froze, he did not know whether to laugh or not.    

    

"Puff ?"    

    

Su Nianxia finally could not hold back and laughed out loud. In terms of appearance, Su Yingxue was indeed unsatisfactory, and with Hua Ruge's words, he stabbed her in her sore spot.    

    

As the saying goes, one does not slap the face, and one does not expose the flaws of others.    

    

Hua Ruge was really going the other way.    

    

The crowd slowly came to their senses, smiles on their faces. If it weren't for the presence of the High Priest, they would have all burst out laughing.    

    

Hearing Hua Ruge's venomous tongue, Lan Bing'er's eyes drooped a little as she covered the faint smile in her eyes. Her big sister really hasn't changed.    

    

Su Yingxue was forced into a panic, his face flushed red, he turned and said to Lan Bing'er who was at the sacrificial altar: Great Priest, this man is extremely disrespectful to you, the heaven and earth cannot tolerate this, you must not let him go so easily.    

    

Everyone's gaze returned to the High Priest, but they did not dare meet her gaze.    

    

"She's right." Lan Bing'er said indifferently, her glass-like eyes staring straight at Su Yingxue.    

    

Su Yingxue was stunned, he did not understand what the High Priest was saying.    

    

Su Nianxia, the bystander, had reacted long ago as he laughed loudly, "The High Priest was right when he said big sister Ruge, didn't he say that you, an ugly man, do more mischief?"    

    

Everyone else also reacted, they could not help but be astonished. How could the High Priest's way of expressing himself be the same as Hua Ruge?    

    

and he looked like he blamed Su Yingxue even more than Hua Ruge, who was disrespectful to her.    

    

Previously, she was still able to face Hua Ruge, but now that she was the High Priest, even if she was given more courage, she wouldn't dare to go against him.    

    

Her chest heaved violently, but she dared not say a single word.    

    

"Was it you who said that my distribution of lodging was unfair?" Lan Bing'er opened his mouth once again, and a cold voice came out, it was as though a mountain was pressing down on one's heart.    

    

The pressure she gave others was already extremely strong. Now that her voice had turned cold, it made people shudder even more.    

    

Previously, everyone had suspected that the Da Yu's priest was just a bluff, but now that they had personally experienced it, they actually believed it.    

    

Su Yingxue's lips opened and closed a few times, but no words came out. After a while, he said, "That's not what I meant ? "I ?"    

    

Everyone now understood why the High Priest had suddenly come. It was actually because of Su Yingxue's dissatisfaction.    

    

Emperor Shang You, who was by her side, began to sweat profusely upon hearing this. How much guts did his daughter have to dare question the High Priest?    

    

"My daughter is young and ignorant, and has offended the High Priest. Please be magnanimous and not argue with her." Emperor Shang You hurriedly said.    

    

He knew that his daughter wouldn't be able to say anything.

Lan Bing'er looked at him and did not speak for a long time.    

    

Everyone felt a surge of pressure in the air.    

    

The Emperor felt even more embarrassed and panicked.    

    

"Upper Nether. I remember." After a long while, Lan Bing'er only said this.    

    

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. What did this mean? It was very clear that they were going to settle the score in the future.    

    

When the Emperor of Shang You and Su Yingxue heard this, their faces immediately turned pale.    

    

They knew they had provoked a great disaster, but they did not dare to say anything under the pressure. They were afraid of angering the High Priest again.    

    

After Lan Bing'er finished speaking, he slightly raised his right hand.    

    

Immediately, someone behind him bowed and stretched out his arm, allowing Lan Bing'er's hand to rest on it.    

    

Seeing that they were going to walk, and should be leaving, everyone consciously turned around to look at Lan Bing'er slowly walking down the stairs. The white skirt corner covered the red carpet below.    

    

The priest was still kneeling on both sides of the table, respectfully guarding the area.    

    

Su Nianxia watched as Lan Bing'er gradually walked in, and a puzzled look appeared on her face. She turned her head towards Hua Ruge and said, "Big Sister Ruge, why do I feel like this High Priest looks a little familiar?"    

    

Because she hadn't seen Lan Bing'er often and wasn't familiar with him, she wasn't able to recognize him immediately.    

    

Hua Ruge smiled and did not speak.    

    

When he walked to the side of the two, Lan Bing'er's footsteps stopped. He turned around and looked at Hua Ruge, his eyes brimming with deep yearning.
