Chapter 427 Chen Ruoyao's Excitement: She Wants to Become the True Moon Goddess!!
Chen Ruoyao was walking back to the Moon Goddess Sect's headquarters.
She walked and pondered.
Why is it that after being away from home for so many years, there has been someone who looks exactly like me living in my house, impersonating me?
The discovery sent chills down her spine; the hairs on her body stood on end, as if a cold snake were crawling up from her feet and coiling around her back.
This was so bizarre, it gave her the creeps.
She suddenly remembered the moon goddess's request to her.
I can never come to this mountain village.
She didn't understand before and thought it was some kind of taboo of the Moon Goddess.
But now, she suddenly understands the deeper meaning behind it.
The person she saw on the street who looked exactly like her was very likely the Moon Goddess in disguise.
Why would the Moon Goddess disguise herself and hide in this small mountain village?
After thinking it over and over, she could only come up with one explanation.
That means the Moon Goddess used this false identity to evade the Qin Dynasty's search.
Only in this way can it make sense.
The Moon Goddess is a remnant of the Taiyin Holy Sect and the most wanted criminal in the Great Qin Dynasty.
She needs a perfect, unquestionable identity to survive in this chaotic world.
What could be more inconspicuous and unremarkable than a peasant girl from a remote mountain village?
This explanation was so reasonable that she couldn't refute it.
But new doubts arose.
According to the elderly couple, the Moon Goddess was captured without any resistance.
With just a gentle tug, the Moon Goddess fell into his arms, her struggles too weak to even begin.
How is that possible?
The Moon Goddess is an unparalleled powerhouse at the half-step terrestrial immortal realm, while the maidservant beside that spoiled brat is only at the first-grade Finger Profound Realm. The Moon Goddess could crush all of them with just a flick of her finger.
How could she possibly have no resistance at all?
She carefully recalled what the old man had said and suddenly remembered a detail.
The old man said that a strong wind was blowing inside the house at the time, and his daughter suddenly exuded an amazing aura, but it all disappeared the next moment.
He had always thought it was an illusion.
But Chen Ruoyao knew that this was definitely not a misperception.
In other words, the Moon Goddess originally intended to crush that spoiled brat, but for some unknown reason, she failed.
Chen Ruoyao's eyes flickered, like a pebble hitting the surface of a lake, creating a series of tiny, fleeting ripples.
Could it be that the Moon Goddess's power has disappeared?
She secretly wondered what was going on in her mind.
Because there is no other explanation that is more reasonable than this one.
The Moon Goddess is such a proud person that she would never allow that spoiled brat to bully her.
Surely there can't be someone even stronger by that playboy's side, right?
Then there are only terrestrial immortals.
How is that possible?
Even the Emperor of Qin might not have had any powerful immortals by his side, right?
Therefore, the problem must lie with the Moon Goddess herself.
If the Moon Goddess's power has truly vanished, then she is now like a tiger with its teeth pulled and claws clipped, possessing only a formidable reputation but utterly powerless to resist.
Thinking of this, Chen Ruoyao felt excited, her heart was pounding like a drum, and even her breathing became rapid.
This is her only chance to get rid of the body double!
She has been a substitute for so many years, living in the shadow of the Moon Goddess, without a self, without freedom, and not even able to use her own face. She can only wear a mask that does not belong to her, say words that do not belong to her, and do things that do not belong to her.
She'd had enough!
She wanted to become the true moon goddess, to possess the real power hidden beneath that mask, and to control her own destiny instead of being forever controlled by others.
If the Moon Goddess has truly lost her power, then she no longer needs to worry about being replaced by the Moon Goddess.
She could even replace him and become the true Moon Goddess, controlling hundreds of thousands of believers and possessing the prestige of a half-step terrestrial deity!
She has always been the Moon Goddess's stand-in. Her speech, mannerisms, movements, and every smile and frown are all trained according to the Moon Goddess's standards.
No one understands the Moon Goddess better than her, and no one is more like the Moon Goddess than her.
As long as the Moon Goddess is gone, she is the Moon Goddess!
A scorching, almost insane flame flashed in Chen Ruoyao's eyes, like two will-o'-the-wisps burning fiercely in the darkness, making her feel hot all over.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her surging ambition little by little, and her face returned to its usual indifference and composure.
She quickened her pace and headed towards the main altar of the Moon Goddess Cult.
At the entrance of the main altar, Xu Longxiang stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the winding mountain road in the twilight, his brows furrowed and his eyes filled with anxiety.
When he saw Chen Ruoyao's figure appear at the end of the mountain road, his eyes suddenly lit up, like a lamp being lit in the darkness.
He hurried forward, his voice urgent.
"Suxin! Where have you been? I've been looking for you for so long!"
Chen Ruoyao smiled slightly, a faint smile carrying an indescribable composure.
"I went for a walk. What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Xu Longxiang opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then revealed Fan Li's plan.
He spoke slowly, each word seemingly forced out of his throat, carrying an uncontrollable difficulty that even he himself was unaware of.
"Miss Suxin, we encountered that spoiled brat on the street today... I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Chen Ruoyao's eyes flickered, and a slight thought crossed her mind.
"What kind of help?"
Xu Longxiang took a deep breath and recounted Fan Li's analysis in detail.
That纨绔子弟 (a spoiled, dissolute young man) is fond of women and indulges in pleasure. If we could give him a stunningly beautiful woman, it would not only resolve the conflict between us, but also give us the opportunity to win over the forces behind him, which would be of great benefit to their future rebellion.
He spoke tactfully, but every word was like a knife cutting into his own heart.
After listening, Chen Ruoyao fell silent.
A glint of light flashed in her eyes, so fast it was almost imperceptible, yet her mind was racing with calculations.
She originally wanted to go to that spoiled brat's house to see if the person who looked exactly like her was really the Moon Goddess herself.
If Xu Longxiang also intends to let her go, then it would be a win-win situation.
This way, we can appease the spoiled brat and win him over, while also testing the person who looks just like us to find out whether the Moon Goddess has truly lost her power.
She raised her head, a faint smile playing on her lips, her voice soft.
"it is good."
Xu Longxiang's heart sank suddenly, like a stone falling from a height and hitting the ground with a dull thud.
He had assumed the Moon Goddess would angrily refuse, or even fly into a rage, which would give him a reason not to let her go.
After all, the Moon Goddess is the high and mighty leader of the Moon Goddess Cult, how could she possibly agree to serve a spoiled brat?
To my surprise, she agreed.
