Chapter 437: Chapter 166: Let the Goddess of Lies Prove Your Innocence_2

Xi Mu, upon noticing, turned his head to look, and saw the approaching Goddess of Life. She was dressed in an exquisite and magnificent court dress, her fair back exposed to the air, and as she moved her slender legs beneath the hem of her gown, the beautiful lines of her legs were outlined.

Yet, what truly captured attention was, of course, her chest, where the full fruits seemed ready to spill forth with an overwhelming heaviness.

She was as gentle and dignified as ever, but paired with the luxurious court dress, she exuded a different kind of allure—a charm that made it impossible to avert one’s gaze.

She truly was the embodiment of all feminine beauty.

"They’re quite noisy, aren’t they?" Xi Mu shifted a bit, deliberately patted the seat next to him, and gestured for the Goddess of Life to sit by his side.

It was an interesting little trick. If he didn’t intentionally pat the seat next to him, the Goddess of Life would sit at a distance from him. But if he extended a special invitation, the Goddess of Life, harboring thoughts of not wanting to embarrass that child, would sit beside him, allowing him the chance to be close to the Goddess of Life.

"They want you to prove your innocence." The Goddess of Life sat down and explained to Ahtal beside her, "But don’t worry, I..."

"What exactly do All Gods intend for me to do to prove my innocence?" Xi Mu waved his hand dismissively, not caring about the demand from All Gods for him to prove his innocence.

After all, he had been prepared to stir things up from the beginning.

"Ahtal, you’re not planning to confess in front of All Gods that you assassinated a deity, are you?" The Goddess of Life said with amusement, looking at Ahtal’s unconcerned demeanor as if she had expected it all along.

Xi Mu’s expression stiffened a bit before he patted his chest in assurance, "I will absolutely tell the truth, if there was no assassination, then there was none."

"A good child does not lie." The Goddess of Life’s smile was gentle as she saw Ahtal nod.

She then spoke of the requirements set by All Gods.

"All Gods want you to stand before the Goddess of Lies and proclaim your innocence, to say with your own mouth that you did not assassinate a deity."

"The Goddess of Lies won’t ask irrelevant questions, will she?" Xi Mu frowned slightly, his expression wary, obviously, there were secrets that he did not intend to share with others.

The Goddess of Life shook her head, "You don’t have to answer questions about your private matters."

"Then there’s nothing to worry about." Xi Mu agreed readily, "Let’s go meet the Goddess of Lies."

"It’s not yet time for you to prove your innocence." The Goddess of Life gently shook her head, then reached out to ruffle Ahtal’s hair, "Just wait at ease for the Three Goddesses of Fate to summon you."

Despite the seeming gravity of the situation, she viewed it much like children at play. All that was needed was to have a good talk with a few extremists and learn from them the hiding place of the false deities.

Now she had almost pinpointed the location of the two false deities, and it was likely that the issue would be resolved within half a day.

"If I don’t go out and prove my innocence, there’ll be a bunch of conspiracies and trickery following, right?" Xi Mu tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Wouldn’t it be better to let the Goddess of Lies interrogate me directly?"

"There’s some sense in that." Brayfil nodded in agreement. If they could get the Goddess of Lies to discern the truth, then all the ensuing plots could be swiftly dealt with.

"Let me meet the Goddess of Lies, I have yet to be judged by All Gods." Xi Mu moved his wrists, his eyes filled with anticipation, as if he would sneak to see the Goddess of Lies even if refused.

He trusted the abilities of the Goddess of Life greatly. If the Goddess of Life were left to deal with the problem, she would surely handle it proficiently until the Three Goddesses of Fate issued their summons.

However, it was precisely because he knew of the Goddess of Life’s abilities that he intended to stir things up.

"You may go, but you must promise not to talk nonsense." The Goddess of Life earnestly cautioned, confident that Ahtal had not assassinated a deity. However, she was worried that Ahtal would confess to killing a deity in front of All Gods and then directly summon the Witch of Death to the high heavens.

That would lead to an extremely serious situation.

"..." Xi Mu fell silent for a moment, looking at the continued gentle smile of the Goddess of Life before he sighed deeply:

"I promise not to talk nonsense."

"Mhm." The Goddess of Life’s smile broadened, "Then let me take you to the Hall of Justice of All Gods. As long as you answer truthfully, everything will be fine."

Xi Mu rose to his feet, steadying himself on his knees, as if asking casually, "The Goddess of Lies won’t frame me, right?"

"The Goddess of Lies only has the authority to judge whether you are lying." The Goddess of Life clarified, "Even if she frames you, it won’t do you any harm."

"That is a reassuring answer." Xi Mu smiled, response would be truly reassuring if the Goddess of Life was an ally, but unfortunately, he had no intention of accepting her goodwill. Thus, her reliable kindness was somewhat troublesome for him.

But after all, if one is determined to court disaster, even the strongest allies are of no use.

...

...

Hall of Justice.

No... more accurately, it should be called the Hall of Justice, located within the domain of the Goddess of Justice, and used in the past for resolving disputes among All Gods.

But today, it welcomed a Demon.

Dah.

Dah.

Dah.

The steady footsteps came from outside the great doors, and a long shadow spread into the room. All Gods in the Hall of Justice followed the shadow with their eyes, to see a man clad in silver armor entering upon the soft red carpet.

"What an impressive presence." The God of Beauty and Art said with a light, charming smile, his pink eyes reflecting Ahtal’s figure, "This man’s growth is really... fast, especially compared to the slow pace of deities."
