Gu Shengyin opened her eyes in the midst of a warm feeling.

"Light element affinity! It's an innate Light body!" She heard an excited voice in front of her just as she discovered that rays of light were shining from her body.

When the rays of light disappeared, Gu Shengyin was brought to the side with respect by several people in beautiful white robes.

She noticed that there were many other girls in this place, and without exception, those girls all looked at her enviously.

Gu Shengyin had long possessed the skill staying expressionless under the eyes of other people. She sat down gracefully and kept her gaze forward. In fact, she was receiving this world's storyline.

This was a Western fantasy world. Like many other worlds similar to this one, this world's two largest factions were the Light and Darkness.

Light had always prevailed and also firmly held the faith of the entire Aoqi Empire's people——because this world's most powerful God was the omnipotent God of Light.

The original Hathaway Louise was a female of the Aoqi Empire's imperial family. During the selection of the Holy Church, the largest force in Aoqi, she had successfully become the new Holy Saintess because of her innate Light body.

The Holy Church's Holy Saintess was their spokesperson. She must possess the purest belief in light. Her mind and body must be loyal only to the Light God.

Hathaway was worthy of the name Holy Saintess. She spent almost all of her free time praying to God. In her eyes, God was omnipotent. God was her only faith. If God told her to die, she would immediately go die. She would do it without hesitation.

A Light priest's ability was bestowed by the God of Light. The stronger the belief, the stronger the light power that could be received. In a short period of time, Hathaway became the strongest person in Aoqi.

Originally, she should have been respected and dazzling in this life; however, because of the jealousy in her personal maid's heart, the maid made an evil plan to frame her, which led to Hathaway being contaminated by the power of Darkness. She was no longer pure and flawless and was deprived the honor of the Holy Saintess.

Hathaway was unable to tolerate that she could no longer serve her God and eventually chose to end her life.

Heidi was Hathaway's maid. Originally, she was a Holy Saintess candidate like Hathaway, but the Church eventually chose Hathaway. Among the remaining people, the two most qualified people became the Saintess' personal maids.

Heidi was unreconciled. In her opinion, she was not inferior to Hathaway, but Hathaway became the Saintess, and was able to sit on the same level as the Pope. However, she (Heidi) was just a lowly maid.

If there was no Hathaway, would she have a chance?

Gu Shengyin was, however, aware of this world's ending: After Hathaway died, Heidi did not succeed in taking that position. Her heart had already been occupied with hate and became extremely filthy and even her faith in Light was unable to be maintained. How could she become a Saintess whose heart was dedicated to the Light God?

Gu Shengyin finished reviewing the original storyline and couldn't help but want to hold her forehead.

This body would become the Holy Saintess in the future, which meant that both her body and mind must belong to the God of Light and must remain pure and innocent throughout her life. Chastity was also an essential condition for the Holy Saintess.

Once the Saintess loses her chastity, her body would no longer be pure, her belief in Light would be contaminated, and she would be discovered immediately.

Gu Shengyin lit a candle for her lover in this world.


Chapter 2

"System, as a Holy Saintess, I must have pure faith but I can't accomplish this. What do I do if I'm exposed?" Gu Shengyin thought of this problem, her brows furrowing.

System was full of confidence. "Host, don't worry. Watch me!"

The system injected a bundle of energy into her mind. After, she felt quite weird.

For example, right now she was sitting in the sanctuary of the Holy Church, and the highest point of the entire church was the statue of the God of Light.

As soon as Gu Shengyin saw that statue, she felt a strong impulse to rush over to worship it.

Gu Shengyin found it hard to suppress the urge. She silently asked the system, "What did you do to me?"

System: "System product! It can reinforce the host's spiritual belief for a short time. The host will still maintain original thoughts so don't worry about brainwashing."

Gu Shengyin: ......Alright. In her eyes, System is very reliable anyways.

The Holy Church's affinity testing finished quickly. Gu Shengyin, along with nine other candidates, were brought to the largest church on the Aoqi mainland — the Holy Cathedral.

It was also the headquarters of the Holy Church on the Aoqi mainland. Legend said that God had once appeared here.

It was said that the Holy God loves beautiful and exquisite things, so the entire Holy Cathedral was bright and beautiful.

Several of the girls couldn't help but look around. One girl even let out a surprised cry.

As a high-ranking female candidate, Gu Shengyin naturally did not startle. She displayed a natural grandeur.

The bishop leading the group observed their reactions, nodding his head.

As for the previous few who were amazed over so little, he had already removed them from the list of candidates on his mind.

They've only seen this bit and are already exclaiming in surprise. If they became the Saintess of the Holy Church, they would deal with many grander scenes in the future. They would be the representative of the Holy Church. If they acted like this outside, then the reputation of the Holy Church would be completely ruined.

The group was brought to the Holy Cathedral of the Holy Church.

As soon as she raised her eyes, Gu Shengyin saw the high and holy Seat of God in front of her.

A peerless man sat upon a luxurious throne, holding a scepter. His face was shrouded in a halo of light through which no one could see.

Even so, this man held a charisma no one could resist.

Especially the current Gu Shengyin, who was full of faith.

She lost control of herself and headed straight towards the throne.

She piously prostrated herself on the ground.

"Great Lord, I am your most faithful and devoted believer. Please allow me to pray for you." She began praying in a quiet voice.

Everyone else had an expression of surprise. Even the bishop was puzzled by this development.

He watched the girl in white robes kneeling below the throne before wondering if this girl was acting on purpose? She was playing this scheme to let the Church's people see?

As he thought of this, the bishop held a note of pity in his heart. Originally, because she had the innate Light affinity, the candidacy for Saintess would have been given to her.

However, she could not wait to 'prove' herself — the Holy God of the Holy Church was not just a decoration.

In the high heavens, countless flowers bloom. Angels perform beautiful songs and graceful dances — all for the man reclining upon his throne with his eyes closed.
