The goddess-like face ignored everyone watching her and accurately found the most dazzling person in the crowd—Qin King Ying Zheng!
He rose as if to walk toward the King of Qin, but then stopped in mid-air, his delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.
What's wrong?
Everyone had some doubts, but Ying Zheng's eyes flashed as if he had discovered something—the Moon Goddess's white shoes seemed to be on the ground, but in fact they were slightly floating in the air!
There was a barely perceptible gap between His entire body and the ground.
Was it because it feared being tainted by the dust of the mortal world? A thought flashed through Ying Zheng's mind, but he rejected the idea. How could a god be so shallow?
The next second, the Moon Goddess blinked, her lips slightly parted, and said, "This place is too filthy; I cannot bear it."
Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, a soft, shimmering light swept across the ground, and a thin, transparent veil, like moonlight, covered the entire hall.
Produced by the All-Star System, first add special effects to the ground, then respectably carry out the construction by hand, pulling the plastic sheeting.
The Qin people present were utterly shocked, while Wang Ben grinned and looked around triumphantly.
Then the majestic king stepped into a light veil and stopped five feet in front of the moon goddess:
"I have failed to consider the matter thoroughly and have not yet welcomed you; please forgive me, Moon Goddess."
Ying Zheng immediately acted as if they were very familiar with each other, speaking in an intimate tone and saying "forgive me," but these were just polite words; in reality, he was testing the nature of this moon goddess.
If He agrees, it means that this moon goddess has a bad temper; conversely, if the moon goddess doesn't care, it means that He is a deity that can be communicated with properly.
"It's alright. I should have met the Human Emperor long ago, but I was delayed and rushed down to the mortal realm, forgetting to inform them."
The Moon Goddess was gentle and kind, her smile revealing a charm that seemed otherworldly, like a hundred flowers in full bloom.
Ying Zheng, who was closest to Him, felt a sudden jolt in his heart.
He noticed that the Moon Goddess's fair face was completely free of pores, and she had none of the imperfections that are common to ordinary people.
Moreover, upon closer inspection, the deity's body seemed to radiate a subtle, soft light at all times.
The King of Qin's palace was full of beauties, and he knew that no matter how perfect a woman was, she would have some minor flaws.
If none of them exist—then they are not human but gods, Ying Zheng thought to himself.
From a different angle, the beauty filter with the skin smoothing and whitening turned up to the maximum can better cover the host's entire body.
"The Moon Goddess is in charge of the moon, and her divine duties are extremely important. She must be so busy that she has forgotten about a mere King of Qin in the mortal realm."
Ying Zheng put aside his arrogance and doubt, and spoke to the Moon Goddess in a relaxed, almost joking tone.
In his view, the gods in the heavens also have different ranks, and the moon goddess is definitely one of the top gods, so naturally her responsibilities are great.
Didn't Wang Ben say last time that the Heavenly Emperor entrusted the safety of the human world for a hundred years to the Moon Goddess? This shows her ability.
Actually—Ling Xiao mentally complained to the system:
"This Moon Goddess is portrayed as a deity who loves singing and dancing, has a carefree personality, enjoys all beautiful things, and dislikes going to work and fighting, which is why she needs the Human Emperor's help."
"Xiao, Ying Zheng might have misunderstood something. Should we remind him?"
He said in a wicked tone.
"Of course, it's better to shatter illusions from the start."
Then everyone saw the Moon Goddess look at the King of Qin with a hint of surprise, and she chuckled.
"It's not because I'm too busy."
Ying Zheng was taken aback, and before he could react, the Moon Goddess explained further:
"You mortals seem to have some misunderstanding. Although I am one of the venerable gods of Heaven, I do not manage trivial matters. The reason I was delayed in descending to the mortal realm is because I happened to acquire a fine piece of music, and while choreographing a new dance, I forgot the time."
As she spoke, the Moon Goddess laughed happily, presumably quite pleased with the dance.
Because of the music and dance, they forgot the time to descend to the mortal realm.
Ying Zheng felt a rare chill run down his spine, and he vaguely understood why the Moon Goddess had made a pact with mortals—even with himself, the future Human Emperor.
If you can't do things yourself, just find someone who can!
No one expected that a true god descending to earth would look like this.
Li Si, however, felt that it was quite normal for the Moon Goddess to love dance and music and to be detached from worldly affairs. Since gods do not descend to earth, mortals' speculations about them are nothing but conjecture.
Our ancient ancestors loved to sing and dance to the moon, and it is likely that the moon goddess has always done so, though people today are unaware of it.
"Moon God" Ying Zheng composed himself, skipping the awkward part from before, and asked:
"I am but a mortal, and with my sword I can only fight seven or eight people. I wonder how I can help you exorcise demons?" he asked tentatively.
"Wow, isn't it amazing that one person can take on eight with a sword?" Ling Xiao exclaimed in amazement at the system.
"Can't people have high standards for themselves?" She was working hard while being harassed by an unscrupulous host, and she was full of resentment!
"Okay, okay, why not?"
Seeing that the Moon Goddess remained silent, Ying Zheng felt somewhat nervous.
"No one can help me but you," the Moon Goddess said mysteriously to Ying Zheng.
"The mortal realm should have gradually seen the immortals and gods fade away, awaiting the next cycle of reincarnation. However, as the rules of heaven and earth evolved and the energies converged, not only were demons and fierce gods about to be born, but the mortal realm also gave birth to the last human emperor..."
Ying Zheng felt that his heart had never been beating so fast before!
Along with other Qin civil and military officials, they also looked on with anticipation. The Moon Goddess had addressed the King as the Human Emperor several times!
The Human Emperor is the emperor of the human race; is he not the one appointed by Heaven and destined to rule?
Empress Dowager Huayang, who was originally the main character of the banquet on the stage, had some complicated feelings in her eyes. After all, she was a princess of the Chu Kingdom.
"...It is you, descendant of the Black Bird, King Ying of the Zhao clan, Ying Zheng!"
The Moon Goddess, seemingly unaware of the magnitude of the shock she had just unleashed, continued, "Therefore, you can naturally help me."
"The government must do everything in its power to assist the Moon Goddess."
Having expressed his stance, Ying Zheng seized the opportunity, bowed deeply to the Moon Goddess, and said in a deep voice:
"Zheng is young and lacks virtue; we beg the Moon Goddess to reside in Qin and guide him, thus sparing her the trouble of traveling back and forth between Heaven and Earth."
He then added, "Although the music and dance of Qin cannot compare to the celestial music of the heavens, it is still quite remarkable, and even the Moon Goddess can appreciate it."
Just what I wanted. Ling Xiao achieved his goal, but hesitated slightly before agreeing.
"Alright, since I probably won't be able to return to the Heavenly Palace for the next hundred years anyway, I'll just stay in Qin."
When the Qin court officials heard the Moon Goddess's reply, they were overjoyed. What an honor it was to have a deity residing in the world!
At this moment, in a place where no one was paying attention, the Chu envoy looked desperate. The moon goddess had actually descended to earth to make a pact with the King of Qin, and even called this tyrant the Emperor of Man.
What will happen to the State of Chu? Will it be trampled under the iron hooves of a tyrant?
The Chu envoy, his heart hardened, stepped past the crowd and shouted loudly at the Moon Goddess, "Moon Goddess, no!" He then turned and pointed at Ying Zheng viciously, saying:
"This tyrant slaughtered countless people to achieve his own selfish desires. The Qin state was a nation of tigers and wolves, and they were not devout in their sacrifices, even forbidding the use of human sacrifices."
He smiled obsequiously at Ling Xiao and said, "Our Chu Kingdom is different. Everyone, from top to bottom, believes in the gods and worships them devoutly. Why don't you come and stay in Chu Kingdom, Moon Goddess?"
