Emissary Lin walked towards Qiong Hua Hall with his trusted disciple.
On the way, she bumped into an elder of the Holy Maiden Temple.
She bowed politely. “Elder Ji.”
In the Holy Maiden Temple, the person with the highest status was the Saintess, followed by the eight elders.
Among these people, some of the Saintesses became elders after abdicating, and some started as disciples and relied on their qualifications and strength to become elders.
Elder Ji was the former.
At the same time, she was also a member of the Ji family.
“It’s so late. Where are you going instead of serving the Saintess?” Elder Ji asked as if it was a routine question. Emissary Lin replied, “I’m bringing people to clean Qionghua Hall.”
Elder Ji asked, “Has the Saintess’ injuries healed?”
Qionghua Hall was where the Saintess usually practiced martial arts. A few days ago, the Saintess was injured while practicing martial arts. After that, she had been recuperating and did not even appear in the first three rounds of the Holy Selection.
However, it was time for the palace selection tomorrow to appear no matter what.
“It’s fine,” Emissary Lin said.
Elder Ji said indifferently, “That’s good. The palace selection tomorrow is very important. If the Saintess is absent, it won’t look good. Go clean the Qionghua Hall. I still have something on. I’ll leave first.”
“Elder Ji, take care.”
Emissary Lin bowed slightly. She only retracted her respectful expression and stood up after Elder Ji had walked far away. She instructed the person beside her, “No one is allowed to leak anything about the Qionghua Hall.”
Her trusted disciple agreed. “Yes.”
Emissary Lin continued, “Also, if anyone is discovered in Qionghua Hall, no matter who it is, kill them!”
One of the disciples hesitated for a moment and asked, “But if a disciple of our sect accidentally walks in…”
Emissary Lin looked at her dangerously.
The disciple hurriedly cupped her hands. “I understand! Those who trespass will be killed without mercy!”
Emissary Lin looked at the silent sky. “No one can discover the Saintess’ secret.”
At this moment, four small intruders were lying beside the bed, observing the man on the bed.
Dahu’s finger poked the man’s face. It was warm.
After confirming that he was only asleep, Xiaohu was no longer afraid of him. His small fingers poked his face.
“Why isn’t he awake? I want to go find Mother?” Xiaohu asked.
They couldn’t open the door.
He had to wake him up, but this adult could sleep better than his stinky father. He could not be woken up no matter what.
Dahu slapped him on the head.
Erhu hurt for him.
However, there was still no reaction.
Erhu took out his little talisman and placed it on his forehead. He imitated the witch in the countryside and chanted,
“Heavenly spirit, earthly spirit…’
Wei Xiyue looked at him quietly and did not say anything.
Emissary Lin brought his trusted disciple into Qiong Hua Hall.
After passing through the dignified and solemn main hall, the group stepped into the corridor on the east side. There was a faint yellow oil lamp hanging on the inner wall of the corridor.
Emissary Lin turned into a training room at the end. Just as she was about to press the mechanism on the wall, the wind chimes under the roof rang. Her eyes turned cold as she said warily, “Someone barged into Qionghua Hall!”
Ever since the Holy Maiden discovered suspicious charcoal dust on the wall of the Book Depository, she had strengthened the security of the sleeping hall and Qionghua Hall and secretly set up the Wind Chime Array.
Anyone who did not walk through the door would easily encounter the mechanism of the Wind Chime Array.
Lin Chang left two disciples behind and rushed out with the others to capture the assassin.
Ghostfear asked, “Was it you?”
Wei Ting said, “It wasn’t me.”
The two brothers looked at a faint thread under their feet and confirmed that they had not stepped on it.
Wei Ting clicked his tongue and said, “Looks like other than us, there’s someone else coming to barge into the Qionghua Hall tonight.”
Ghostfear said, “Don’t be happy too early. They might not be friends.”
Those who would come to Qionghua Hall seemed to be on bad terms with the Saintess, but who could guarantee the people inside were easy to deal with?
If they were here to snatch that puppet or simply destroy it, their actions tonight would make things worse.
“The southern border is not peaceful either.” Wei Ting narrowed his eyes.
Ghostfear said, “The Holy Maiden Temple is already one of the largest forces.
To have the guts to bring so many people to barge into the Holy Maiden
Temple, the force behind them can’t be underestimated.”
Wei Ting looked at him. “Brother, do you have any guesses?”
Ghostfear paused. “It’s either one of the four great families or the royal family of the Southern Wilderness.”
Wei Ting thought for a moment and said, “We can eliminate the Cheng family. The Cheng family is prepared to be reelected as the Saintess and won’t do anything to weaken the strength of the Holy Maiden Temple. The other three families… are hard to say. In addition, there are eight other tribes in the southern border. They are also suspicious.”
Ghostfear listened to the commotion of the two sides fighting. “It doesn’t matter who it is. We only have one goal.”
There were more than 20 assassins in this wave, all of them experts.
Emissary Lin blew the bone whistle, and the experts of the Holy Maiden Temple moved out.
The two sides fought fiercely.
Emissary Lin retreated to the ground and secretly observed the battle. So many experts had come at once. They had clearly come prepared..
“Not good! The secret room!”
Emissary Lin realized that she had been lured away and hurriedly walked towards the secret room where the person was imprisoned.
The disciples she had left behind to guard had long fallen to the ground and was unconscious.
She squatted down and checked their necks.
Rumble…
The stone door of the secret room opened.
Her eyes flickered. She could not care less about the two seriously injured disciples and quickly ran towards the stone door.
Unfortunately, they were a step too late. The two men in black had already barged into the secret room with bloody swords.
What was even more abominable was that they actually closed the stone door and destroyed the mechanism.
She couldn’t open it!
She punched the stone door. “Damn it!”
These people did not come with good intentions.
It was unknown if they were targeting the Saintess or the entire Holy Maiden Temple. In short, the news of that person had been leaked. They were here to kill him!
However, that person had yet to wake up and was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered…
“Emissary Lin!”
A disciple rushed over with a sword. She looked at her junior sisters on the ground and asked worriedly, “Emissary Lin, are you alright?”
Emissary Lin gritted his teeth and said, “Hurry up and inform the Saintess!
Someone has broken into the secret room!”
In the secret room, two men in black slowly approached the bed with swords.
The two of them were wary of that person’s movements and exchanged glances.
One of them continued walking. The other had his back to him, wary that the stone door would open at any moment.
The person came to the bed and looked at the unconscious man on it. He suddenly raised his sword.
“What are you doing?”
A round head suddenly crawled out of the blanket.
This person was shocked!
He staggered back!
The two of them looked at Xiaohu in shock.
The man in black asked, “Why is there a child here?”
His companion said, “Could it be that the Saintess secretly gave birth to him?”
The man in black stared at Xiaohu and said, “This child doesn’t look more than three years old. This person has been here for five years. The time is completely right. ”
“Capture the child!”
“Who are you arresting?”
Erhu also crawled out of the blanket.
The two of them were shocked again!
T-twins?
Dahu also crawled out of the blanket. “It’s not right to capture someone.”
Three!
The two of them widened their eyes.
His companion said coldly, “It’s enough to capture one. If there’re too many, they’ll be in the way. The other two… kill them with that person!”
The man in black nodded.
That was the only way.
They were cold-blooded killers to begin with. In their eyes, a child was no different from a few stones. It was impossible for them to be soft-hearted towards a child.
The man in black grabbed a child with one hand and threw him to his companion. He raised his sword and slashed mercilessly at the other two.
Swoosh!
His blade was gripped by a hand as cold as a skeleton..
