What did the third envoy mean?
She frowned, completely unconcerned that it was her turn to self-destruct.
And after self-destruction, everything would settle.
"Congratulations! You are the first to awaken. From now on, you represent the most honored Saintess of this Universal Divine Hall!"
Before her, three envoys knelt respectfully and excitedly, humble and firm!
Upon hearing this, the others woke up one after another, casting envious and resentful glances at her, yet they had to slowly bow their heads, expressing their subservience!
This scene of being worshiped by thousands would surely make anyone ecstatic! To have the high and mighty divine envoys kneel before oneself, to see the jealous expressions of the noble ladies who had been so confident in themselves as the sole candidate for Saintess…
This was probably what any woman desired!
However, at this moment!
The woman in the white dress stood rooted, her expression subtly shifting, but it was clear that the calm and detached look in her eyes remained unchanged.
Jin Bao'er was surprised at first, followed by a series of strange feelings!
Although there was no specified number of rounds for the competition, she didn't believe they could find a suitable Saintess in just two rounds! Furthermore… knowing that Lan Lian's personality, if she truly became Saintess, the other party would surely explode!
Then, she turned her head to look at Lan Lian's position. That cruel and venomous woman was currently kneeling not far away, her face full of jealousy and unwillingness, even showing a hint of resignation.
Heh! Resignation?
That woman was someone who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals! Would she resign so easily? Even the grudges from forty years ago, that woman remembered them clearly, vowing to return to that small world for revenge, would she give up the position of Saintess so easily?
Afterward, her gaze swept over everyone. The same cultivation, the same appearance, the same aura, even their subtle movements were identical…
As if they were real!
The three envoys looked up.
"Saintess?"
Jin Bao'er heard the sound and looked over, her expression shifting slightly.
"The power of rules can be used like this?"
The rules manifested, or rather, they created such a scene based on her memories, even deceiving her own recollections. The only failure was miscalculating one woman's inner thoughts!
She didn't understand others, and she wasn't clear about this Lan Lian, but she had personally experienced the woman's cruel nature! How could she not see through it?
The three were stunned simultaneously!
Jin Bao'er didn't give them a chance to argue. She closed her eyes slightly, nodded, and looked up…
Before the three, and even everything around them, could react, the Great Dao's time rule descended with a roar!
"Bang, bang, bang…"
The immense pressure instantly scattered a large number of figures, and finally, everything was destroyed…
When she opened her eyes again, only she was awake. The three envoys reappeared before her…
"Welcome, Saintess!"
As soon as the words fell, Jin Bao'er frowned slightly. Before she could say anything, a cry of alarm directly sounded from not far away!
"Impossible! How could she be the Saintess? Why her?!"
As expected, Lan Lian, who had just woken up, was the first to protest upon hearing this. Her eyes, blazing like fire, stared intently at Jin Bao'er, as if trying to bore a hole through her! They were filled with jealousy and unwillingness!
The three envoys frowned!
"She was the first to awaken, which means she has the greatest comprehension among you. The position of Saintess can only be hers!"
Lan Lian was furious!
"Just for this? But you also said you wanted someone pure, powerful, selfless, and fearless! I can do that too!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Bao'er looked at her a couple more times!
Lan Lian also realized the content of this assessment this time? Not bad, not stupid!
However, the three envoys disdained to explain. They waved their hands and sent her away, leading others to kneel before her! Their attitudes were pious and respectful!
"The Saintess has descended, the Divine Hall reopens! Welcome, esteemed Saintess!"
"Welcome, esteemed Saintess!"
"…"
Jin Bao'er stood still. She suddenly understood what the third person had meant…
The so-called "beginning" was not the start of the second selection, but the beginning of the illusion, or perhaps… the beginning of a cycle!
She sighed.
"This is still not right. That woman would indeed have these reactions, but your attitudes changed too quickly. Before, the envoys were arrogant, and then they suddenly knelt before me. It always feels unreal… so… you are also fake, aren't you!"
The three envoys stiffened: This is frustrating! It's the second time, what more do you want?
Seeing this, Jin Bao'er closed her eyes. The Great Dao's rule power descended again, forcefully destroying everything…
This was an environment constructed by the power of rules, and it could only be dispersed by the power of rules!
A moment later, she opened her eyes again and looked at the three who were persistently walking towards her, their appearance unchanged. She couldn't help but frown! Her brow twitched!
"Fine! This is the third time!"
The three simultaneously twitched their faces: It hasn't even started yet, right? They haven't said a word yet, how did you realize we were fake? Cheating?
Jin Bao'er couldn't be bothered to deal with them. She immediately closed her eyes and mobilized the Great Dao's rule power…
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Everyone around instantly disintegrated!
A few seconds later, she opened her eyes again, impatience now evident in her gaze!
The three envoys, who were just about to walk over and tell her she had been elected Saintess, stopped abruptly when they met her eyes…
Their intuition told them that if they stepped forward again at this time, they would face another refresh and restart!
So, after exchanging glances, the three of them directly changed direction and walked towards Lan Lian.
This time, Jin Bao'er breathed a slight sigh of relief. It should be real, right?
And then…
"Congratulations, you have successfully been elected Saintess!"
Lan Lian was overjoyed! She was so happy that she was practically out of her mind and acted foolishly proud towards a certain woman!
Jin Bao'er's brow instantly furrowed. That's it? After all this, they ended up choosing such a thing? As expected! It's another illusion, isn't it!
She directly closed her eyes, and the Great Dao's rule power descended fiercely! In the blink of an eye, it destroyed more than half of the people!
The three envoys were numb: Choosing you is not okay, not choosing you is not okay, following your wishes is not okay, why is nothing okay? What do you want to be convinced?
You've got us! We give up, alright?
Thus, after enduring five cycles, Jin Bao'er finally emerged! The first thing she did upon opening her eyes was to look around, confirming that everyone else was still asleep and showed no signs of waking up, before looking at the three envoys…
Just in time to hear this:
"That person from Blue Star wants to be Saintess, hehe…"
"A bunch of ants trying to become gods? Hahaha!"
The first two laughed brilliantly and mockingly, but the third remained indifferent.
"We must find the Saintess as soon as possible, otherwise, we will also lose…"
He spoke the last few words very softly, as if he were afraid of being overheard!
Upon hearing this, the other two immediately adopted solemn expressions and nodded in silence.
