The Golden-skirted Goddess hovered mid-air, with a rose gold divine halo suspended behind her, barefoot with hands behind her back, her divine eyes calm and tranquil as she looked down at the crowd below.
She swept her glance over them and finally looked towards the respectful, bowing youth with grey hair, her voice light:
"Che Yinyou, has your elder brother collected all the 'Venerable materials' yet?"
Hearing the question, Che Yinyou was momentarily stunned, although not knowing why the Eternal Day Goddess posed this question.
Still, he replied with respectful gravity, "Two more hours are needed."
"This time, with the trade with Yeli Helian, we helped him slaughter the city, offering the souls of the city's residents in sacrifice. In return, he gave us two Heavenly Stone Embryos and three Light Dark Yao Stones, plus the five Light Dark Yao Stones that Blind Qing obtained on Witch Island, making a total of eight Yao Stones."
