Zhou Sining stopped and turned back. A polite smile still hung on his face, but his eyes had gone cold as he studied the woman in the black veil from head to toe.
"Aren't you curious?" the veiled woman asked.
Zhou Sining stared at her for a moment. Then something clicked. "Are you Asharaya? A Parthenon saintess, a candidate for goddess, and Wen Tai's adopted daughter?"
The veiled woman's expression froze, her eyes widening.
From her reaction, Zhou Sining knew he had guessed right.
He smiled, turned, and walked away with a wave. "It's your honor to know me."
He sounded carefree, but as he entered the reception room, the plot involving Asharaya came back to him.
Most important was the Parthenon Temple incident after the World Academy Competition.
Amid the rivalry between the Parthenon Temple's saintesses, news suddenly broke that Ye Xinxia's blood resonated with that of Salang, the Red Cardinal.
The blood stone was a special Magic Stone that recognized only bloodlines. After all, no one would have imagined that a cold-blooded monster like Salang had a child.
Ye Xinxia was also caught up in accusations of harming a saintess. So no matter how harmless she seemed, they decided that she was Salang.
During that incident, Mo Fan used his demon bloodline to subdue Bola the vampire, then tore Hai La, the god of death, apart with the Demon Element and forcibly rescued Ye Xinxia from the dark Sanction.
Given the Worldline's tendency to repair itself, Zhou Sining believed the Parthenon Temple incident would still unfold as usual.
Which raised a problem.
Without the Demon Element, how was Mo Fan supposed to survive it???
Forget the dark Sanction later on. Without demon blood, he could never get past Bola unscathed.
He might not get past Bola at all.
