Chapter 375: Chapter371-Turning the Tables
"It's impossible! My grandfather would never do such a thing! You're talking nonsense!"
The lord of the Celestial God Palace reacted emotionally, vehemently denying the claim.
Candice, upon seeing this, didn't attempt to argue further. Instead, she pulled out a handwritten letter from her robe and handed it to the lord of the Celestial God Palace.
The lord glanced at the letter, and she immediately sensed a familiar aura from it—her grandfather's unique aura, something no one could fake. She quickly took the letter and tore it open.
After reading it, the lord of the Celestial God Palace's face turned pale with shock.
Her grandfather really had ordered her to serve by Owen's side!
Her body trembled, and the letter seemed to fall from her hand like a heavy burden.
This completely exceeded her expectations, and even her imagination. It felt like being abandoned.
After a moment of sinking into disbelief, the lord of the Celestial God Palace finally chose to relent. Although she didn't understand why, she knew that once her grandfather made a decision, it was always carefully considered and unwavering. There was no room for argument.
"Owen, please take care of me from now on," the lord of the Celestial God Palace bit her silver teeth and bowed with humiliation.
Candice's gaze was complicated. As the general of Emerald Dreamscape and a long-time rival of the Celestial God Palace, she knew the lord's character well—she was a formidable person. Only her grandfather could make her bow down.
Yet, Candice never expected that the Celestial God Palace's grand elder would really have his beloved granddaughter serve Owen!
Even now, seeing it with her own eyes, she couldn't believe it, as if she were dreaming.
Flora also slightly widened her eyes.
The Celestial God Palace elder really had no honor! He even used his own granddaughter in such a scheme!
However, after some careful thought, Flora couldn't help but admire the elder. He was indeed the true mastermind of the Celestial God Palace. In such a short time, he had already seen the pros and cons of the situation and recognized how it could benefit the Celestial God Palace.
Although sending his granddaughter to be by Owen's side might be a humiliating move and could hurt the Celestial God Palace's reputation, Owen's extraordinary talent was well-known. He was universally regarded as the greatest genius of all time. Not only would this move keep Owen in check, but it also provided the Celestial God Palace with a potential opportunity. If something were to happen between Owen and the lord of the Celestial God Palace, it could lead to the birth of another super genius—someone who might surpass all expectations and become legendary!

The old man's strategy of retreating to advance was brilliant!
After all, wasn't that man indifferent to women? Or was it because the lord of the Celestial God Palace was such a beautiful woman that he couldn't resist?
"Indeed, the older generations are all masters of scheming!" Flora narrowed her eyes and glanced at the visibly heartbroken lord of the Celestial God Palace.
This lady was not a simpleton either, but the blow she had just received was too much for her to process, leaving her momentarily lost. Once she regained her composure, she might very well try to seduce Owen!
At that time, it would be a burning hot scene, and Flora feared that she would be witnessing the birth of a true super genius!
"If the Celestial God Palace produces a super genius, the future hierarchy of Pure Land will probably be settled!" Flora's eyelid twitched. She didn't want to see such a development!
"No, the Howling Hills must be the future strongest force of Pure Land!" Flora seemed to make a decision in her heart.
Now that the Celestial God Palace and other factions were eyeing Owen, and the Celestial God Palace was already ahead of her, Flora realized she had to act fast.
With a smile, she turned to Owen. "Owen, the Chamber of Riches is just ahead. Let's speed up!"
She broke the silence. Flora knew the Chamber of Riches well—she practically ruled it. Since Owen was so eager to go, she might as well let him enjoy his wish. But he shouldn't regret it when he got there.
A faint, sly smile curled at the corner of her lips.
Owen, unsure of how to respond to the lord of the Celestial God Palace, followed Flora's suggestion. "Let's talk about this later. Let's go to the Chamber of Riches first!"
They needed to complete their mission while Loki, the God of Trickery, hadn't reacted yet. If they didn't act quickly, it would be nearly impossible to enter the Chamber of Riches once Loki realized what was going on.
With that, Owen, under Flora's guidance, quickly headed into the depths of the desert.
The heat of the surroundings was unbearable, like being trapped in a dry steamer, with waves of heat rising from their bodies.
The Celestial God Palace lord remained behind for a moment, her eyes filled with inner conflict, before she finally stamped her foot and began chasing after Owen.
Candice, seeing everyone leaving, quietly turned and walked away.
So much had happened today, even someone like her, who had been through many trials, couldn't help but feel as if it were all a dream.
Flora led the way ahead. As a stunning beauty herself, her smooth forehead glistened with a light sheen of sweat, adding to her allure. Yet, at this moment, she was quietly plotting, weaving her plans deep within her mind.
"Owen, now that you're in my hands, you must leave something behind..."
She thought to herself, her cheeks slightly flushed, a perfect plan fully forming in her mind!
With renewed confidence and anticipation, she quickened her pace toward the Chamber of Riches. It seemed that once they reached the Chamber, her plans would finally come to fruition.
I am the lord of Emerald Dreamscape!
Ysera snorted in anger, then stepped into the palace.
