Chapter 983: Chapter 983: Weakened Divinities vs. Despicable Believers (Part 9)
In Gu Shengyin’s mind, a series of steps to develop faith were flashing by when suddenly a maid from the City Lord’s Mansion knocked on the door.
"Oracle, someone is here to see you." The maid was very respectful towards Gu Shengyin.
"Let her in." Gu Shengyin already knew who it was.
She had not expected that her first meeting with Heddy would occur under such circumstances.
Heddy had originally planned to leave the City Lord’s Mansion today.
She had been "forcibly invited" by the people from the City Lord’s Mansion to solve the problems of Sea Blue Province.
However, the title of Oracle was originally fake, so how could she solve any problems?
Heddy could only put on a brave front and pretended to contact the divinities, and the outcome was naturally predictable.
Fortunately, the City Lord of Sea Blue Province was not a bloodthirsty person, and since he had invited many others who also had no solutions, he did not blame Heddy.
On the day she was preparing to leave, Heddy overheard two maids quietly discussing that those powerful knights had brought an Oracle who could resolve the current predicament of Sea Blue Province.
Knights?
The moment Heddy heard this, she knew who they meant.
After all, she had been invited to be there, enjoying VIP treatment in the City Lord’s Mansion, and everyone from the servants to the City Lord treated her with courtesy.
Only those knights, said to have come from the Imperial Capital, showed her no respect at all.
Especially the leader, although Heddy admitted he was handsome, his temperament was as cold and hard as his beauty.
Would such a person also invite someone?
Heddy was exceedingly curious about the mysterious Oracle, so before leaving the City Lord’s Mansion, she made a point to come and see.
She was led into the room by the maid.
At first glance, she was captivated by the Nine-Colored Deer standing quietly to the side.
This Divine Beast, only found in legends, had a graceful and elegant form, with antlers like branches in bloom, standing there as if it were glowing.
The legendary Nine-Colored Deer!
Just a sip of its blood could extend one’s life by ten years!
Heddy’s gaze involuntarily heated up.
She could hardly resist the urge to approach.
Fortunately, her reason reminded her that there was another person here.
Gu Shengyin was originally sitting sideways. Upon seeing her arrival, she turned around.
"Hello." Gu Shengyin did not stand but simply nodded slightly in greeting.
No one thought her gesture was rude, not even Heddy, who felt this woman was born to sit so elegantly; nothing and no one in the world could make her bow.
"You...hello." Being looked at by those clear and gentle eyes, inexplicably, Heddy became nervous, and even her speech became stuttered.
Gu Shengyin’s vast Divine Soul Power swept over Heddy instantly, unnoticed by anyone.
As expected, this woman only had the name of an Oracle, with neither any faith nor any mark left by a deity on her.
Gu Shengyin’s gaze carried a hint of inquiry.
Heddy’s once eloquent skill seemed to falter completely in front of Gu Shengyin.
Her face flushed red, and she struggled to find an excuse: "I heard that the City Lord’s Mansion had a newly arrived Oracle, so I wanted to come and pay my respects."
What’s wrong with me today? So unusual?
A trace of amusement flickered in Gu Shengyin’s eyes.
Heddy’s abnormality was naturally due to Gu Shengyin using a faint thread of Divine Might while looking at her.
It’s not an easy thing to lie in front of a God.
