Chapter 1188: Infiltrating Luoyan Hall

Meng Guang's face was very grim; he was truly afraid.

"Brother Ye Qing, please don't make fun of me! I know my abilities are nothing in your eyes. Brother, you can't just leave me to die!"

Meng Guang had originally thought that joining the Xiaoyue Sect would let him bask in the sect's glory, but instead he had walked right into a tiger's den. How could he not be anxious?

But he knew that with his own strength, he absolutely could not escape.

Ye Yuan was now his only savior.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Meng, don't worry. I have a Clear Spirit Pill here. Grind it into powder and take two-tenths of it, and you'll be able to resist that faint fragrance. For the next few days, try not to go out. I have some matters to attend to. Once things here are settled, I'll take you away."

Meng Guang took the pill and saw that it was a ninth-grade super-grade pill!

He took a deep breath and looked at Ye Yuan with a complex expression.

Being able to casually produce a pill of this grade meant that Ye Qing was definitely no ordinary person!

The medicinal effect of a ninth-grade super-grade pill was too strong; Meng Guang's strength couldn't handle it, so he had to grind it into powder and take just a little.

But that little bit was already enough!

Meng Guang gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, Brother Ye Qing! If I can escape this demon's den, I'll repay you like a beast of burden!"

After seeing Meng Guang off, Ye Yuan tidied up and went out directly.

Ye Yuan went to select cultivation techniques, where he saw many of the martial artists who had come with him.

These people were all extremely excited to see those ninth-grade techniques.

Little did they know that several of their companions had already disappeared.

Most of these disciples were loose cultivators who didn't know each other.

They acted alone, so even if someone went missing, they would just assume that person was in seclusion training.

Of course, Ye Yuan wasn't really there to pick a technique; he deliberately went to provoke the steward into finding fault with him.

As soon as he entered the Technique Hall, Ye Yuan knew he was being watched.

And this person's strength was extremely formidable!

Ye Yuan was almost certain that this person was probably the so-called Saint King powerhouse!

In the shadows, the steward stood obediently behind the Saint King.

"This young man is just an ordinary Heavenly Enlightenment eighth layer; he's not hiding his strength. Besides, didn't he come to pick techniques and martial skills today? It seems he's just indifferent by nature, nothing special." The Saint King said faintly.

"Yes, master. This servant was overthinking." The steward replied respectfully.

"Mm, this batch of disciples is of good quality. That大人 is very satisfied. Later, there will be a generous reward!" The Saint King said.

The steward was overjoyed and quickly said, "Thank you, master. This is all this servant's duty."

"At most a year from now, Lord Kano will emerge. At that time, all our魔族 strongholds in the Divine Realm need to be activated. Our place here will be an important hub connecting various locations. So we cannot afford any mistakes! In this year, you must be fully alert and allow no errors! Especially the demonic sound transmission array, understand?" The Saint King said.

The steward quickly replied, "This servant will remember!"

Although Ye Yuan knew someone was spying on him, he couldn't hear what they were saying.

If he had heard the Saint King mention 'that大人,' he probably wouldn't have been so calm.

There was actually an existence even stronger than the Saint King in this stronghold!

…

With the vigilance against Ye Yuan relaxed, his movements over the next few days became much smoother.

After several days of investigation, Ye Yuan was basically certain that Luoyan Hall on the main peak was most likely the central hub of the teleportation array!

Ye Yuan possessed the Sun-Moon Heavenly Eye, making him a natural spy.

He didn't have to sneak around cautiously like others.

He casually wandered near the main peak, and everything was exposed in his sight.

After all, he was a new disciple; it was perfectly reasonable to familiarize himself with the area around the main peak.

As for some more secluded places, with Ye Yuan's methods, those demons naturally couldn't detect him.

Luoyan Hall was a very inconspicuous palace, but its defenses were extremely tight.

On the surface, most of the guards didn't seem very strong, but observing from afar with the Sun-Moon Heavenly Eye, Ye Yuan saw that the guards of Luoyan Hall were probably demon kings at the Divine King level!

True demons, not demonized slaves.

Such tight defenses must be guarding something extremely important.

So in this Xiaoyue Sect, what was the most important thing?

Of course, the information transmission array!

Over the past few days, a few more new disciples had gone missing.

Meng Guang secretly broke out in a cold sweat, feeling lucky.

After taking Ye Yuan's pill, that faint fragrance indeed could no longer affect him.

If not for Ye Yuan, he might have been among those who disappeared.

On the sixth night, Meng Guang finally saw Ye Yuan coming.

"Ah, Brother Ye Qing, you're finally here! I've been on pins and needles these past few days. If you hadn't come, I think I'd have gone mad." Meng Guang complained.

Death is not可怕; the process of waiting for death is what's可怕!

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Come, I'll take you to see the true face of the Xiaoyue Sect!"

Meng Guang's expression turned serious, and he followed Ye Yuan away.

Ye Yuan had already observed that there were ten visible sentries and three hidden ones around Luoyan Hall.

He had to eliminate all of them at the same time to enter Luoyan Hall silently.

"Brother Ye Qing, what exactly do you want to do?" Meng Guang transmitted his voice.

Ye Yuan had given him a Concealing Breath Pill, and they hid in the shadows, undetectable even to the demons.

Ye Yuan smiled slightly, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!

In the dark night, thirteen streaks of cold light flashed by.

All thirteen guards died under Ye Yuan's sword!

Meng Guang's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched this scene.

Only then did he realize how terrifyingly strong the Brother Ye Qing who had been calling him brother really was!

This was no Heavenly Enlightenment realm martial artist; this was clearly a powerhouse at the Divine King level!

Killing thirteen Formless realm guards in one breath without making a sound—such strength could probably only be achieved by a Divine King level powerhouse, right?

Of course, that was Meng Guang's assumption.

In fact, those thirteen guards themselves were Divine King level experts!

Ye Yuan's strength was simply beyond his comprehension.

"Ye... sir...大人, you... you are actually a Divine King powerhouse!" When he reached Ye Yuan, Meng Guang stammered.

A Divine King was an existence far beyond his reach.

An existence he could never attain in his lifetime.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Something like that. Let's go, inside!"

Ye Yuan led Meng Guang casually through various禁制 and entered Luoyan Hall.

Of course, there was killing along the way.

But with Ye Yuan's methods, no one could react before being killed instantly.

Even the Saint King, Ye Yuan was confident he could kill instantly, let alone these guards.

Entering the main hall, Ye Yuan was stunned by the sight before him.
