The God of Beauty

Chapter 1

The ground in the Heaven Realm, suddenly shook violently, accompanied by a light as it rose from the ground.

"Someone must have ascended." The Martial God or God of Beauty, Li Jie said, as he sat down and drank his tea.

When the earthquake was over, he got up and went out of his palace, and went to the Conference Room.

—————————————

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned again?" one of the  gods said in a low voice.

"Hello everyone, I'm back" Xie Lian, replied quickly, and greeted all of the gods in the conference room.

The Heaven Official speaked in a leisurely manner, "This time, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince's ascension made a really big commotion.". Xie Lian chuckled lightly as he rubbed the back of his neck. "It's okay" he added.

However, the Heavenly Official didn't give him a chance to escape. He spoke in a voice that was neither warm or cold "Huh, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince is alright? My luck was not that good today."

Xie Lian got confused, and asked Ling Wen, "Ling Wen, what does he mean?". She whispered back "The clock, Your Highness"

Xie Lian immediately understood what he meant. He was the God who got smashed by the clock. "I heard about the incident with the clock. I'm very sorry, I didn't mean it." Xie Lian politely apologized.

The said God, huffed and turns his head away. "Umm.... Pardon me sir, but may I know who you are?" Xie Lian asked.

The moment he said those words, the other party became silent. A moment later, every gods started laughing. Ling Wen turns to him. "Your Highness, this is General Xuan Zhen."

"Xuan Zhen?"

He was shocked by what he heard, "You mean he is Mu Qing?". Long only nodded.

Xuan Zhen was a Martial God who keep watching over the Southwest. He had many temples, and in the Mortal Realm, his reputation was illustrious.

Ling Wen was very shocked. "It couldn't be that you really didn't recognize him?"

Xie Lian replied, "How could I recognize him. I can't even remember when was the last time I met him." Ling Wen spoke "Are you OK, Your Highness?"

Xie Lian replied, "I'm OK, ahhhh"

Suddenly, they heard a voice, "Who the hell destroyed my palace?!" he roared. "Get out!!" He added angrily.

Through their stomachs were already flipping, everyone still held their breaths as they listened rapt attention. They didn't make a single sound as they peep at Xie Lian, waiting for his respond. But nobody expected that instead of something exciting, they heard something even more thrilling. Xie Lian hadn't started talking before Mu Qing spoke first.

Mu Qing laughed "Hahahahhahaha"

The person asked angrily "You are the one who destroyed it? Alright, if thats what you want, then I'll give it to you!"

Mu Qing snorted, as he replied "I didn't say it was me. Don't just randomly blame someone."

"Then why are you laughing? Are you mentally ill?" the person asked.

Xie Lian coughed "It was me. I'm very sorry"

"Am I late?" a voice spoke, his voice was soft, but lack emotions.

The moment they heard it, they all looked surprised, they stopped laughing, and looked at his direction, but they still could not see his face. Xie Lian was again confused, at what is happening.

"Li Jie..." Mu Qing and Nan Feng muttered.

By his ear, Ling Wen whispered. "Your Highness, that is General Nan Yang" she pointed at Nan Yang's direction, "And that is General Li Jie also known as God of Beauty, the one who spoke." she also pointed at his direction.

"But, why couldn't we see his face?" Xie Lian asked in a low voice, afraid he might him. "Your Highness, no one has seen his face, except Emperor Jun Wu, he doesn't often show up at meetings or any activities, he's always cooped in his palace, he doesn't go out, but when he goes out to do he's duties, his face is covered." She whispered back, again.

Xie Lian felt curious about this man.

When Li Jie landed his gazed in Xie Lian's figure, he politely greeted" Your Highness." he questioned "So, what did I miss?"

Mu Qing broke the silence, "No, you didn't miss anything." Li Jie raised his left eyebrow "Is........ that so..." again the room is filled with silence, afraid he might killed them if they speak. Li Jie sighed "You all can speak, you know? It's not like I'm gonna eat or kill you all, just because you all speak."

"Ummmm.... Your General Li Jie and General Nan Fang, right?" Xie Lian, was the one who broke the silence instead.

The both General respond "Yes"

Nan Fang was the Martial God who oversaw the Southeast. He was popular and also had many temples, receiving the love and respect from the common people.

As for Li Jie, he was the Martial God who oversaw the Northwest. He was also very popular and had many temples and women worshippers, who worshiped him because of his beauty.

Xie Lian cleared his throat, he spoke "Everyone, I'm terribly sorry for all the trouble I've caused. I'll compensate for all your losses, just give some time." the Crown Prince apologized.

"You better keep your word, Your Highness." the gods huffed except for someone.

"Well, this is awkward. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Li Jie says and left. General Nan Yang annd General Mu Qing bowed briefly before also leaving. The other gods whispered to each other before leaving as well.
