Peerless Divine Doctor

Of course, since Ye Luo is unharmed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

”No wonder you’ve earned the title of Ninth Prince. Such valor and skill! You managed to defeat one guardian puppet all on your own—what incredible strength!”

”Indeed! Even the insolent Demon Clan couldn’t match the Ninth Prince. Let alone a mere guardian puppet. Since the Ninth Prince has already dealt with one guardian puppet, we must put forth our full strength to defeat the other. Once we do, we’ll be able to enter the Sacred Temple’s main hall!”

”Alright, let’s work together and attack with all we’ve got!”

Inspired by Ye Luo, the rest of the group was invigorated, and without hesitation, they launched a frenzied assault.

In an instant, countless attacks bombarded the guardian puppet, creating dazzling flashes in the sky—surging with brilliance and utterly breathtaking!

Ye Luo did not make another move. The strike he used earlier was a flash of inspiration—a spur-of-the-moment attack. At the time, amidst the heat of battle, he acted reflexively, but now upon reflection, he couldn’t help but feel a shiver of dread.

The previous attack was reckless, foregoing all defense—a one-way strike with no chance of retreat!

If not for the guardian puppet being temporarily distracted by the group, it was likely Ye Luo wouldn’t even have managed to slay it, and possibly, his life would’ve been forfeited there and then.

Thus, Ye Luo naturally did not dare to recklessly take such risks again.

This spinning attack technique might serve well in moments of life-or-death desperation—or when one is prepared to fight to the bitter end—but in normal circumstances, it is best avoided. After all, one careless move could lead to mutual destruction.

In his heart, Ye Luo even hoped he would never find himself in such perilous situations again.

The group now unleashed their full arsenal of attacks.

No matter how formidable the guardian puppet was, it couldn’t withstand the relentless waves of assault coming from over two thousand attackers. Before long, with an earth-shaking crash, the puppet crumbled directly to the ground.

When this guardian puppet was designed, who could have foreseen that those who entered the Yun Kai Sacred Temple in search of treasure might align so completely under the command of a single individual?

Even those who initially harbored ulterior motives against the Royal Academy’s disciples had now abandoned such thoughts. The prior gruesome battles had already made it clear to the survivors that the Yun Kai Sacred Temple was far more treacherous than expected!

With the added threat of the Demon Clan’s presence, everyone understood that straying from the main group could mean dying without even knowing how it happened.

Although Ye Luo had already slain over a hundred Demon Clan members, the chaos spreading throughout the Yun Kai Sacred Temple suggested that there were far more than just a mere hundred infiltrators.

Thus, if one wished to survive and ultimately find the treasures, the only safe course was to stick with the main group!

With both guardian puppets defeated, Ye Luo led the group toward the central hall.

But as soon as they entered the central hall, everyone was utterly stunned!

”What’s going on? Although the hall looked large from the outside, it shouldn’t be this enormous! Could it be that we’ve been teleported somewhere else?”

One person stared at the scene before them, unable to suppress their astonishment and exclaimed loudly.

Unfortunately, no one could answer their question. In truth, including Ye Luo, no one could make sense of what lay before them.

Now revealed before Ye Luo and his companions was a sight entirely unlike what one might expect from the interior of a grand hall. Immense pillars, soaring and seemingly touching the heavens, stretched upward endlessly. Each pillar was colossal in size, towering so high it was impossible to see their peaks.

The entire hall was illuminated by countless bizarre Magical Treasures scattered throughout, which cast a glow across the space. But even so, the true expanse of this hall remained unfathomable.

Ye Luo felt a surge of astonishment and couldn’t help but quietly ask Yun Liancheng, ”Brother Yun, is your mother’s Cloud Clan truly merely a Ninth Region race?”

Yun Liancheng raised his head, staring blankly at Ye Luo. He understood the implication behind Ye Luo’s words, yet he had no idea how to respond.

Such craftsmanship—surely no Ninth Region race could possess such capabilities. This was akin to a miniature world unto itself!

Could it be that Yun Liancheng’s mother’s Cloud Clan originated from a higher region—the Eighth Region?

No, even the Eighth Region might lack the means to wield such techniques!

Could it perhaps be the Seventh Region, or even an even more exalted region?

Yun Liancheng couldn’t shake his confusion. At this moment, he finally understood why his journey back to the Cloud Clan had been so fraught with difficulty.

Was it merely a matter of the Cloud and Human Races being forbidden to marry?

Perhaps the Cloud Clan had simply never considered the Great Tang Empire worth acknowledging.

It was only because the Cloud Clan was a peace-loving species that harmony with the Great Tang Empire had been maintained!

What was the truth?

Could Yun Liancheng’s parents’ touching love story have been nothing but a deception?

No one knew. And now, Ye Luo certainly didn’t have the luxury to dwell on such ideas.

Behind Ye Luo, the group was already itching to move forward. In their minds, wasn’t traversing the Yun Kai Sacred Temple all about seeking treasures?

Since they had entered the central hall, how could they possibly leave empty-handed?

If Ye Luo hadn’t yet issued a command, these people might’ve already rushed ahead to explore on their own!

This was the main hall of the Yun Kai Sacred Temple!

A place no one had ever set foot in before!

No one knew what secrets lay within, but one thing was certain—this hall must be filled with innumerable treasures.

Treasures for which they had braved untold dangers, even risking their lives—what was it all for?

Was it not for these treasures?

Was it not for these treasures that could boost their strength and abilities?

Now, the opportunity was right before them. This hall held limitless possibilities!

The group had long been eager to rush forward!

If not for Ye Luo’s presence, these people might’ve already scattered on their own!

Ye Luo frowned slightly, for he was acutely aware that once they reached this point, no one could truly impose order on these individuals!

But—did entering this hall truly mean there was no danger?

On the surface, the hall appeared completely silent. Yet this silence was accompanied by a profound sense of unease!

”Everyone, I understand that now we’ve reached this place, I shouldn’t try to impose further restrictions on you. However, I must warn you—even within this hall, it’s unlikely to be truly safe. It’s possible that our expedition has only just begun. Moving forward, you are free to explore as you see fit. But I hope that you will do your best to help one another and avoid unnecessary conflict!”

Ye Luo addressed the group loudly, though he was fully aware that few among them would take his advice to heart.

”Rest assured, Ninth Prince—we will take good care of ourselves!”

The group responded in unison, and Ye Luo waved a hand, signaling them that they were free to leave!

In a chaotic surge, as soon as Ye Luo issued the command, everyone scattered in different directions. Despite Ye Luo’s call for mutual assistance, the lure of treasure was far too tempting, and no one was willing to share their fortunes with others.
