When they heard someone say that the high priest was coming, the previously calm crowd suddenly became excited.
And those young men and women who were of noble birth and had seen the world all raised their heads, wishing they could stand in the best position to catch a glimpse of the high priest.
Su Wan looked at this scene, and an indescribable strange feeling emerged in his heart.
It seems that this high priest is even higher than the Emperor of the Divine Court
But when Ming Ye introduced it to her, he clearly said that the Emperor's Son was the highest position in the Divine Court.
Looking at the way these people are looking forward to it, the expressions of anticipation and excitement on their faces don't look fake.
Does this also mean that the so-called High Priest is rarely seen in normal times
Yes, when she lived in the Divine Court, she felt that no one had ever mentioned this person.
Thinking of this, Su Wan couldn't help but reach out and tug at the corner of Jiang Xuecheng's clothes.
"Your Highness, is that high priest very powerful?"
She looked up at Jiang Xuecheng, her eyes were crystal clear and pure as if there was not a trace of impurities.
Su Wan's ignorant voice entered his ears. The young prince pursed his lips and glanced at her with a complicated look.
—I really don’t know whether to praise Su Wan for her good acting skills or her poor acting skills.
It is impossible for a true spy not to know the current high priest. After all, he is the real controller of the Divine Court.
Even ordinary people would find the title of the high priest to be well-known.
As the high priest of the previous emperor's son, how big a storm was stirred up when he was appointed as the next heir? !
Su Wan's completely innocent expression made it seem as if she knew nothing and was isolated from the world.
The man was in a complicated mood. He didn't want Su Wan to lie, but he also thought the questions Su Wan asked were too ridiculous.
Just as he hesitated, the commotion ahead suddenly calmed down.
It was unusually quiet all around, as if there was a serious atmosphere hanging in the air, making it hard to breathe.
The young prince withdrew his gaze from Su Wan and looked towards the distance.
That person... is finally coming...
He tightened his grip slightly, his eyes filled with hostility.
Su Wan glanced at the expression on Jiang Xuecheng's face and shuddered involuntarily.
Jiang Xuecheng's expression now was so scary, and he felt an indescribable weirdness, as if he was going to eat someone at any time.
Su Wan was confused. She followed Jiang Xuecheng's gaze and suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning. She stood there in a daze, unable to move!
—How could it be her?!
I saw a woman being surrounded by a crowd not far away, followed by many men and women, but only the woman in the front who was surrounded by the crowd caught everyone's attention.
The other person was wearing a retro cheongsam with light-colored embroidery. Her beautiful face was like a blooming lotus. At the same time, she had a cold and arrogant temperament, which made people feel intimidated after just two glances and dared not look at her closely.
The woman was obviously not young anymore. Her cloud-like black hair was tied into a bun, and there were signs of aging in her eyebrows and eyes. But whether she was still or moving, she was as beautiful as a painting that could bloom into a sky full of flowers at any time.
Su Wan had previously thought who the High Priest of the Divine Court was, and had pictured a dignified and solemn middle-aged man in her mind, but she did not expect that it was actually a woman.
And it was Jiang Xuecheng's mother Xu Ziyao!
Su Wan's pupils widened, he opened his lips and spoke Chinese subconsciously.
"Mother-"
Su Wan was shocked at first, then surprised the next second, but soon became full of doubts.
—Why is Xu Ziyao here? ! Did she travel through time with her and Jiang Xuecheng
But Xu Ziyao was not at the explosion site at that time.
Also, why did Xu Ziyao become the High Priest of the Divine Court, and Jiang Xuecheng is the Emperor's Son of the Divine Court? !
The doubts in Su Wan's heart grew stronger and stronger, almost causing a huge storm!
She swallowed and almost wanted to rush forward to ask Xu Ziyao what she wanted to say.
When Su Wan called her mother, her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
But the man standing next to her had excellent hearing and could hear Su Wan's mosquito-like sound directly.
The young prince's pupils suddenly contracted. What was this woman talking about
Su Wan's distraught look became a proof of her guilty conscience in the man's eyes.
Sure enough, she actually recognized the high priest and seemed to be very familiar with his appearance.
The young prince stared at Su Wan, his mind racing with thoughts.
But how is that possible? !
Even I have only met the high priest a few times...
The high priest has been elusive lately, and no one knows where he has gone. When did Su Wan see the high priest
Just when Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng were each preoccupied with their own thoughts, the high priest of the Divine Court suddenly walked over.
Su Wan suddenly heard a faint cat's meow. She was stunned for a moment and then she realized that "Xu Ziyao" was holding a purebred Persian cat in her arms.
The Persian cat lay lazily in "Xu Ziyao's" arms, changing to a more comfortable position from time to time, making people jealous of it for choosing a good position.
The cat's body was pure white, and its eyes, like glass beads, were a deep emerald green.
I don’t know if it was Su Wan’s illusion, but I always felt that the Persian cat’s eyes were particularly familiar.
Su Wan was stunned, and suddenly thought of Ming Ye, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
That man seemed to also possess a pair of emerald eyes, so enchanting and soul-stirring.
Jiang Xuecheng took a step forward and bowed respectfully to the other party: "High Priest."
The high priest of the Divine Court glanced at him calmly, his voice still as clear and moving as before, but with a hint of superiority and coldness.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite."
Su Wan looked at "Xu Ziyao" and Jiang Xuecheng without blinking, and felt extremely strange when he saw the way they greeted each other like superiors and subordinates.
Did "Xu Ziyao" also lose her memory? !
Just when Su Wan was puzzled, perhaps because the high priest came closer, he suddenly discovered that the other's face was slightly different from Xu Ziyao's.
Although the facial features are the same, Xu Ziyao does not have a conspicuous teardrop mole under the right corner of her eye.
It's strange to say, although having a teardrop mole should make him look more charming, the high priest of the divine court only gives people an aura of being unattainable and cold.
If you look closely, you will find that the high priest is indeed different from Xu Ziyao in more ways than just this.
When he was on Earth before, Su Wan just thought that Xu Ziyao was rather indifferent and not approachable enough, but when facing this high priest, he had the illusion that he was being treated as an ant.
Could it be that the High Priest of the Divine Court is not Xu Ziyao? !
Su Wan's doubts grew stronger and stronger...
Perhaps it was because Su Wan's gaze was too direct and presumptuous that the high priest finally felt displeased.
"Who is this woman?!"
Su Wan was startled when someone pointed at her. She took a step forward and was thinking about how to introduce herself.
However, something unexpected happened!
The Persian cat with emerald eyes suddenly pounced towards Su Wan!
