...

She is the jewel of the Aotian Divine Court, the most beloved youngest daughter of the Father God.

She is the most beloved younger sister of many main gods, including Yuequan, Zhenyang, Luohai, and Dadi.

The dragon of the Star River bowed his head for her, and the bloodthirsty eyes of the turbid world closed because of her.

Her eyes were bluer than the deepest blue of the sea; her long hair was more beautiful than the waterfall at the end of a rainbow river.

Her skin was as white as the snow of the Tianshan Mountains; her smile made the stars in the sky pale in comparison.

She is an unparalleled goddess, the very essence of the word "beauty".

However, at the age of 87,500, just as she was entering the most beautiful moment of her life...

Father God Ottoman has fallen.

After holding the power of the Divine Court for countless years, Aotian finally turned his attention to the Holy Path.

That was a legendary path trodden by the creator, paved with the blazing sun like the sands of the Ganges. It was said that those who trod upon it were all eight saints, qualified to ascend to the highest realm.

Aotian was already very strong. He condensed the power of the entire pantheon into a core and stepped into the unprecedented realm of God-King in the three thousand three hundred realms. He opened the Void Heaven Passage and saw the Holy Road burning fiercely.

He excitedly took a step forward, but before he could fully take the step, only half of his head remained, burned away. His unparalleled divine power, which had ruled countless worlds and could shatter a region with a single blow, vanished in an instant.

And, just then, a burst of fire leaked down from the Holy Path.

The sacred fire descended upon the world, burning away the divine court.

...

"Is this the Ragnarok, the end of the divine realm, that Aunt Badel foretold?"

In the magnificent attic, a girl with waist-length hair murmured softly.

Five thousand years ago, the woman who held the divine power of destiny foretold a corner of the future of fire and destruction, and asserted that the Father God would perish in that future, thus being regarded as an ominous sign.

His body was pierced with divine iron and locked at the bottom of the extreme cold abyss.

The fair-skinned, blue-eyed girl leaned against the railing: "But she's right."

In the distance, the enormous clock tower collapsed, and countless believers of God were annihilated, burned into invisibly fine dust.

In the sky, dazzling colors twisted and bloomed like flowers, symbolizing the fall of gods. These were magnificent phenomena formed by the gifts of divine power, and each image signified the death of a true deity.

Further away, countless fragments fluttered about, the last remnants of a world shattered into pieces.

Black and gold covered half the sky, and then a boy gathered up his cloak with one hand and placed the other hand on the girl's shoulder.

"Reinhard," the girl whispered, the warmth of that palm already familiar to her, etched into her very being.

He was a handsome and imposing young man, more than a head taller than her, wearing divine armor symbolizing invincibility, with a black and gold cloak flowing behind his shoulders.

He was her fiancé, who had saved her from danger multiple times during a divine rebellion 20,000 years ago.

Later, he begged the Father God to grant him a marriage, wanting to marry her, the most beautiful princess of the Aotian Divine Court.

Although the King of Aotian did not speak, he only gave a blank, expressionless face that said, "Think about it carefully."

But she agreed.

After all, there was no more outstanding young god in the entire Divine Court than him.

Reinhard was her fiancé for over 20,000 years, and still is today.

So what's the big deal about a mere 60-year-old crown prince...?

“Owl Spirit, I first learned of your existence more than 30,000 years ago.”

Reinhard remained standing, but leaned forward to stand shoulder to shoulder with the girl, his eyes catching glimpses of her beautiful profile.

"Before that, I was just a boy who was focused on practicing combat skills and wanted to defeat my older brother, a god. My greatest wish was to become the first war god under my father and guard the divine court."

"...Even with the existence of the Father God, the Divine Court does not need any protection."

The title "Father God" does not refer to his biological father. In the Celestial Court and its three thousand three hundred worlds, this honorific title can only be used for the Supreme God-King.

The young war god sighed, "But the moment I met you, the instant I saw you, all other thoughts became absurd and laughable."

“A cry roared from the depths of my soul, telling me the purest desire from the bottom of my heart: I want you.”

"I only want you, you can only belong to me!"

"This desire—transcends everything!"

He stated his undisguised possessiveness in a low, irresistible voice.

He twirled a strand of the girl's hair with his fingertips, playing with it gently.

With his other hand, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her closer to him.

Ao Xuling leaned back slightly, her slender body resting against his chest, as if acquiescing to something.

“But,” Reinhard’s tone shifted slightly, taking on a sharp edge, “who—is he?”

He felt the body in his arms tremble slightly.

The arm, powerful enough to tear apart a Titan, gently retracted, but his expression remained unchanged, calm and serene.

Since the Owl Spirit did not answer, Reinhard continued.

"I can tell that you really want to fall in love with me, and you've been working very hard to do so."

“Every time I return from battle, when I lean against the wall and close my eyes to rest, you always think I am asleep and scrutinize my face, counting my hairs. I remember all of this.”

"But, but!"

"I can sense that there is a figure piercing your heart like a nail, like a barrier between heaven and earth standing between us!"
