Liu Yu saw her bare feet, saw her pure white Greek-style dress, and saw her golden long wavy hair. She continued walking until she reached a place where the birds no longer sang and saw a lake. The lake was as blue as a clear sapphire, tinged with gold, and was so beautiful that it seemed otherworldly. Liu Yu stopped in her tracks. She saw a figure from behind, tall and upright, as cold as frost, as eternal as a mountain, making it impossible for people to look directly at him. Liu Yu instinctively lowered her eyes, but the image of him just now still lingered in her mind. He stood there, his silver long hair almost touching the ground, glistening with fragments of gold, like the sparkling lake. His pure white robes were lifted by the wind, the sunlight was his slave, and the gentle breeze accompanied him. He looked into the distance, exuding a sense of loneliness. Liu Yu never expected this person to be anyone other than the God of Light. She never imagined that the Memory Pearls would contain such a scene. The man turned around. A pool of green entered her eyes, and she had never seen such beautiful eyes before. When you meet his gaze, all words become useless. She seemed to see mountains, rivers, stars, the changes of the sea, the rising and setting of the sun and the moon; she even saw the lonely long night and the cold lifetime. And in that moment of eye contact, the man waved his hand and Liu Yu felt herself drifting away again until she landed on the ground. She woke up. The lustrous pearl was still in her hand, and her trembling, fearful, and excited blood was still flowing. Liu Yu trembled as she sat up and carefully tied the memory pearl around her neck, along with the spotted feathers. She never expected the true form of the God of Light to be like this… Liu Yu couldn’t find any adjectives to describe it, and even felt that any words used to describe him would be blasphemy. She only felt that a god should be like this, awe-inspiring and inviolable. However… In that instant of leaving, she sensed the method of how to deceive others in her mind. It wasn’t difficult. By introducing a medium contaminated with dark power into her body, she could stimulate the divine power of the memory pearl and feathers, expel the darkness with absolute power, and use it to activate the crystal ball… In other words, use poison to counteract poison. The most pressing matter was to find an object imbued with dark power. Time quickly jumped to the day of the God’s Chosen selection. Chapter 9: Stirring Things Up On the day of the God’s Chosen selection, the weather was fine and the sky was clear. The Fergus family’s carriage set off from Dampu Street and passed through the eastern district and the central district before finally arriving at the Soren Academy in the western district after more than an hour. The area in front of the academy was bustling with activity, filled with numerous exquisite and magnificent carriages. In the current era where complexity was considered beautiful, the dim and old-fashioned Fergus family carriage became inconspicuous among the carriages. Liu Yu sat quietly inside the carriage. Through the window, she could see the guards, who were usually drowsy and lazy, completely transformed. They opened their dog-like eyes wide open and meticulously inspected the entering carriages. “Which family?” “The Fergus family.” The carriage door opened, and the sunlight poured into the dim compartment, shining on the young girl sitting inside. She was wearing a magnificent sea blue puffy skirt, with feathers ornamenting the hem of the skirt. She also wore a feather-decorated wristband, and her azure eyes were as clear and clean as the sky. The face of the young guard turned red, and he dared not look any longer. After scanning through, he was about to let them through but suddenly stopped. He pointed to a protruding object behind the emerald green curtain by the window. “Miss Fergus, what is this?” Liu Yu smiled, pulled back the curtain for him to see, and said, “It’s my pet.” There was an ancient bronze birdcage behind the curtain. Inside the cage, a gray sparrow stood on one foot, stretching its left wing to scratch its back. “A pet?” The guard was momentarily stunned. He had never heard of any nobles keeping this kind of bird as a pet, and bringing it on such an occasion… The smile on the young girl’s lips disappeared in an instant. “Can’t I bring it?” “You…you can.” It was not mentioned in the regulations. “That’s good.” Liu Yu immediately became happy. “Spotty is my lucky charm. I can’t feel at ease without it today.” “Pfft-” Behind her, there was an obvious mocking laughter. “Bella, have you been spending too much time with your commoner sister? Your taste has become so…unique.” Liu Yu ignored it. Every God’s Chosen selection was a reshuffling of power, and arguing at this time would be futile. After entering the school, the coachman went to the stable to park the carriage, and Liu Yu carried the birdcage with one hand and held up the hem of her dress with the other, walking along with the crowd. “Bella! Bella!” A familiar voice came from behind, and Liu Yu reluctantly stopped. Her lively red-haired desk mate caught up with her and immediately started complaining when she saw her. “Bella! Oh, my god, did you see that?” “See what?” “Your beloved sister actually arrived in a Louis family carriage! Oh heaven, oh heaven, half of the girls in the Soren Academy would be heartbroken. If it were you, Bella, it would be fine, but it had to be your inconspicuous commoner sister…” Liu Yu nonchalantly said, “Oh.” The plot had indeed progressed to this point.
