Chapter 3132: Returning from Shrine

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Hall Master displayed an unwavering ruthlessness, making it clear that he no longer desired the presence of the Holy Son.

His Excellency, the Holy Son, could only attribute this outcome to his own obstinacy.

The Hall Master had, on multiple occasions, conveyed both overt and covert signals to him. Yet, whether due to a lack of discernment or an excess of stubbornness, the Holy Son continued to adhere to the misguided belief that the temple should embody a beacon of light and justice to save the world.

Blame could not be assigned elsewhere; it rested solely on the Holy Son’s perceived foolishness.

Holy Son Miyan harbored a foreboding sense of unease. Halting in his tracks, he altered his course, approaching MO Lian, Qiao Mu, and the others.

“You’re correct. The Shrine may indeed have aligned itself with that cult,” affirmed Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao impassively. “What is your plan?”

Gazing skyward, the Holy Son spoke with a profound mix of worry and despondency, “I never anticipated that our sacred and luminous Shrine would descend to such depths.”

“I wonder if the Hall Master is implicated, or…” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes skyward. “Do you believe that, without your Hall Master’s influence, the Holy Daughter would have undergone such a drastic transformation?”

“Have both heads of the Shrine joined the Heavenly Fate?” inquired Crown Prince MO bluntly.

“Except for you, the anomaly, I believe everyone in the Shrine has joined,” he added.

“Did the Hall Master not suggest to you to yield?” queried Holy Son Miyan, momentarily dumbfounded. As realization dawned, a pained expression surfaced, “Since the Shrine established its own hall, it has always held the highest sanctity in the hearts of the Three Provinces’ people! We, the Pundits, are the most potent instruments, forged by seizing the fortunes of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon since the world’s inception! Adorned in halos, why should we grasp onto external affiliations?”

“Enough with the boasting!” Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao’s face paled as she silently criticized.

“But now, the Shrine has undergone a complete transformation.”

Pooling her resolve, Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao forcefully patted his shoulder. “There’s only one way for you to move forward.”

“What’s that?”

“Reverse the Shrine!”

Holy Son Miyan stared at her in bewilderment for a prolonged moment before vehemently shaking his head. “No, it hasn’t come to that… right?”

“For this journey into the secret realm, the Hall Master must have received an order from Heavenly Fate to eliminate all of us inside. Do you believe me?”

The stoic figure glanced at him from the corner of her eyes and asked apathetically, “Before, we were just testing the waters. Inside is perilous! Are you afraid?”

“No, I’m not afraid!”

“Fine, we’ll discuss it after we enter. Reflect on it carefully. From now on, you’ll be in the same predicament as us. Your Hall Master didn’t disclose anything to you. It’s evident he wants you to perish with us.”

“Since he’s heartless, you don’t need to remain loyal to him any longer!”

Qiao Mu withdrew her small hand and leaned on MO Lian. “Why not consider something? What are your thoughts?”

Holy Son Miyan felt a slight twitch in his eyelids. He couldn’t shake the feeling that the little one’s kindness wasn’t entirely benevolent.

“As the Shrine’s Holy Son, you’ve traversed the Lunisolar secret realm countless times. Why not share where you’ve hidden valuable resources and how to navigate without straying?”

“In case we take a wrong turn inside and are unaware. Let’s cut to the chase..”
