Chapter 633: The High Priest Was Her?!
Hearing someone say that the high priest had come over, the originally calm crowd suddenly became excited.
And those young masters and young ladies from noble backgrounds who had seen the world all raised their heads, wishing that they could stand in the best position and have a glimpse of the high priest’s grace.
Su Wan looked at this scene, and an indescribable strange feeling emerged in her heart.
It seemed that this high priest was a level higher than the Emperor of the God’s Palace?
But when Ming Ye introduced him to her, he clearly said that the emperor was the highest position in the God’s Palace.
Looking at these people’s expectant expressions, the excitement on their faces didn’t seem fake.
Did this also mean that the so-called high priest was rarely seen?
That was true. When she lived in the God’s Palace, she felt that no one had ever mentioned this person before.
When Su Wan thought of this, she couldn’t help but stretch out her hand and tug at the corner of Jiang Xuecheng’s clothes.
“Your Highness, is that high priest very powerful?”
She raised her head and looked at Jiang Xuecheng. Her gaze was so clear that the bottom could be seen. It was so clear that there seemed to be no impurities at all.
Su Wan’s muddle-headed voice swept into his ears. The emperor pursed his lips and gave her a complicated glance.
—Was it Su Wan’s superb acting skills or her poor acting skills that should be praised?
It was impossible for a true spy not to know about the current high priest. After all, that person was the true controller of the God’s Palace.
Even an ordinary person would feel that the name of the high priest was well-known.
As the previous Emperor was the high priest, how big of a storm did it cause when he was appointed as the next successor?!
Su Wan’s pure and innocent expression was as if she did not know anything and was isolated from the world.
The man’s state of mind was complicated. He did not wish Su Wan was lying, but he also felt that Su Wan’s question was too laughable.
Just as he was hesitating, the restlessness in front of him instantly calmed down.
It was strangely quiet all around, as if even if a serious atmosphere was drifting in the air, it was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
The emperor withdrew his gaze from Su Wan and looked up into the distance.
That person… was finally coming…
He clenched his fists slightly, his eyes filled with hostility.
Su Wan glanced at the expression on Jiang Xuecheng’s face and couldn’t help but shudder.
Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was so terrifying now. It felt indescribably strange, as if he was going to eat someone at any moment.
Su Wan was puzzled. She followed Jiang Xuecheng’s gaze and looked over. Her entire person seemed to have been struck by lightning, and she was stunned on the spot, unable to move!
How could it be her?!
She saw a woman who was being surrounded not far away. Behind her were many men and women, but only the woman who was being surrounded at the very front swept across everyone’s line of sight.
The other party was wearing a light-colored, retro Cheongsam embroidered with flowers. Her beautiful face was like a blooming lotus. At the same time, she also carried a cold and arrogant temperament, causing people to feel intimidated just by looking at her. They did not dare to look at her directly.
That woman was clearly not considered young anymore. Her black hair was tied into a bun like a cloud. The corners of her brows and eyes had knowledge about the passage of time. However, she was either still or moving. She was as beautiful as a painting and could bloom into a sky full of flowers at any time.
Su Wan had previously wondered who the high priest of the God’s Palace was. In her mind, she had sketched out the image of a dignified and cold uncle. She did not expect that it was actually a woman.
And it was surprisingly the mother of Jiang Xuecheng, Xu Ziyao!
Su Wan’s eyes widened. She opened her mouth and subconsciously spoke in Chinese.
“Mother–”
Su Wan was shocked at first. The next second, she was pleasantly surprised. However, it quickly turned into confusion.
Why was Xu Ziyao here?! Did she transmigrate here with Jiang Xuecheng?
However, Xu Ziyao was not at the scene of the explosion.
Also, why did Xu Ziyao become the high priest of the God’s Palace, and Jiang Xuecheng was the emperor of the God’s Palace?!
The doubts in Su Wan’s heart grew stronger and stronger, and she felt like a storm was brewing!
She gulped and almost wanted to rush forward to ask Xu Ziyao.
When Su Wan called her mother, her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
However, the man standing next to her had very good hearing, so he could hear Su Wan’s mosquito-like voice.
The emperor’s pupils suddenly contracted. What was this woman saying?
Su Wan’s dejected look was reflected in the man’s eyes, and it became a proof of guilt.
As expected, she actually recognized the high priest, and it seemed that she was very familiar with the high priest’s appearance.
The emperor stared at Su Wan, his mind spinning.
But how was that possible?!
Even for him, the number of times he met the high priest was very few…
Recently, the high priest was even more elusive. No one knew where she went. When did Su Wan meet the high priest?
Just as Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng were having their own thoughts, the high priest of the God’s Palace suddenly walked over.
A soft meow suddenly entered Su Wan’s ears. She was stunned for a moment before she realized that “Xu Ziyao” was holding a purebred Persian cat.
The Persian cat was lying lazily in “Xu Ziyao’s” arms. From time to time, it would change into a more comfortable position. People could not help but envy it for choosing a good position.
The cat’s entire body was pure white, and its pair of glass-like eyes were deep green.
Su Wan did not know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the Persian cat’s eyes were exceptionally familiar.
Su Wan was stunned. Suddenly, she thought of Ming Ye, whom she had not seen for a long time.
That man seemed to have a pair of emerald eyes like this. They were so devilish that they could capture one’s soul.
Jiang Xuecheng took a step forward and bowed respectfully to the other party. “High Priest.”
The high priest of the God’s Palace glanced at him calmly. His voice was still as clear and moving as before, but there was a hint of coldness in it.
“Your Highness, there’s no need to be so polite.”
Su Wan looked at “Xu Ziyao” and Jiang Xuecheng without blinking. When she saw the way they greeted each other as if they were superior and subordinate, she felt extremely strange.
Could it be that “Xu Ziyao” also lost her memory?!
Just when Su Wan couldn’t figure it out, perhaps it was because the high priest was getting closer, she suddenly realized that there was still a slight difference between the other party’s face and Xu Ziyao’s.
Although their facial features were the same, there was no eye-catching mole beneath the right corner of Xu Ziyao’s eye.
Speaking of which, it was also strange. Even though the person with the mole should be more delicate and moving, this high priest of the God’s Palace only gave off an unapproachable cold aura.
Upon closer inspection, the high priest was indeed different from Xu Ziyao in more ways than one.
Back on Earth, Su Wan only felt that Xu Ziyao was more indifferent and not very approachable. However, when facing this high priest, she felt as if she was an ant.
Could it be that the high priest of the God’s Palace was not Xu Ziyao?!
The doubts in Su Wan’s heart grew stronger and stronger…
It was probably because Su Wan’s gaze was too direct and impudent that caused the high priest to finally feel displeased.
“Who is this woman?!”
Being pointed at by someone, Su Wan was stunned. She took a step forward and was thinking about how to introduce herself.
However, a sudden change happened!
The Persian cat with emerald demon eyes suddenly pounced towards Su Wan!
