Strongest Martial God - Chapter 27
Translator: Seventh Peril Editor: Anuvrat
Ye Zhong could guess what Su Yu was thinking, but after frowning for a moment, he shook his head. If it was before, it would have been fine, but by now, they had already provoked the Hollow Prince. It seemed to Ye Zhong that he would not let things go so easily. In such a situation, if these three girls followed the two of them, they might be in more danger.
Seeing Ye Zhong shake his head, Su Yu sighed as well. After jumping off the stone pillar, she shook her head and said, “The three of you should just wait for me to come back to Qingshan Town. When the time comes, I’ll bring some items out from the Innate Temple. So, you three will have barely completed the Sect Mission as well.”
“Senior Sister Su Yu, this guy can go in with you, but why can’t us?” The girl in green dress had long noticed Ye Zhong who was standing beside Su Yu. Clearly, Su Yu refused their request at Ye Zhong’s sign, the girl was enraged.
“He’s different from you, he’s an Inner Disciple.” Hearing that, Su Yu softly explained.
“Inner Disciple?” The girl in green dress scanned Ye Zhong for a moment, then said lightly, “Senior Sister Su Yu, don’t lie to us. How can we not know how many Inner Disciples there are in the sect? But this guy, we’ve never seen him in the sect before. Let alone an Inner Disciple, I estimate that he’s not even an Outer Disciple.”
“Moreover, with his strength at Third Layer of Body Tempering, he was able to follow Senior Sister. Why can’t we follow Senior Sister and broaden our horizons?” The girl in green dress harrumphed.
“This……” Hearing this, Su Yu’s face turned awkward. While she was extremely calm when dealing with her opponents, it was clear that she had a headache when facing her Junior Sisters from the same sect.
After frowning for a moment, she took a glance at Ye Zhong and said, “Little Junior Brother Ye Zhong, why don’t you look ……”
“Ye Zhong!?” Hearing this, the lady in green dress was slightly taken aback. She looked at Ye Zhong with a strange look in her eyes, “You are Ye Zhong, that, the Ye Clan’s Ye Zhong of the Five Great Clans?”
“You two know each other?” Su Yu also looked at the girl in green dress with a puzzled expression.
“Pfft, so you are that legendary trash, Ye Zhong. I’ve heard Ye Tong and the others talk about you! Humph, the biggest shame of the Ye Clan in a thousand years, what’s so great about the legendary Ye Clan trash!” The girl stuck out her tongue at Ye Zhong, “You don’t want us to join, and we don’t want to team up with the trash like you! Humph!”
“Let’s go!”
With that, the girl pulled the other two girls away. Although the other two girls had faces full of hesitation, they were still pulled in the other direction by her.
“Ye Zhong, for the three of them to behave like this, I’m afraid that’s not appropriate, right?” Su Yu looked at Ye Zhong’s expressionless face and softly spoke, “Besides, Qi Yu, she has always been a straightforward person. Don’t take what she just said to heart.”
Hearing that, Ye Zhong shook his head and said lightly, “Senior Sister Su Yu, you should also know. If they follow us, they might be in more danger.”
Su Yu sighed. If she hadn’t had a conflict with the Hollow Prince, she would have stayed with those three Junior Sisters. However, staying with them at this moment would have indeed harmed them.
“I hope they will know the difficulties and retreat. As long as it doesn’t involve something like Spiritual Secret Arts or Spirit Vessels, with their status as Xingxiang Sect’s Outer Disciples, no one would dare to touch them.” Su Yu sighed. Then, her beautiful eyes slowly landed on the entrance of the valley. “Let’s just wait.”
Hearing that, Ye Zhong did not say anything further and waited quietly.
“*Swish——*”
The daytime slowly passed by while waiting, but when the sun was about to set, Ye Zhong’s eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and then his gaze fell to the right-wing of the rear.
There were a large number of people walking out from the forest. Each and every one of them was brimming with Qi and Blood; it was obvious that they all were experts at the Body Tempering Realm.
Ye Zhong’s gaze fell on the group of people for a moment. He frowned slightly, obviously not recognizing them for the moment.
“They should be people from Qingshan Town’s Mo Clan. The one who leads the group should be the Mo Clan’s Young Lord, Mo Fanlong.” Su Yu turned around with a sense of caution while looking at the one who was in his early twenties, and was gently rubbing the two bone balls in his hands, “I never expect him to make a move. It seems like the appearance of the Innate Temple is true.”
“Is this man that awfully strong?” Ye Zhong looked at the man blandly, then swept his gaze behind him. Amongst the troop, Ye Zhong could see at least three powerhouses at the Fourth Layer of Body Tempering. Such a formation was terrifying indeed.
“This person’s innate talent is unparalleled. Back then, our Xingxiang Sect once sent him an invitation, but he rejected it!” Su Yu said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Ye Zhong narrowed his eyes. Someone who could refuse the invitation of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s number one sect, the Xingxiang Sect, must have some skills and some self-confidence. Such a character, coupled with his status as a local snake, would be extremely difficult to deal with.
“Senior Sister Su Yu, it seems like this time, we’ll have to complete the Sect Mission, which seems to be even more difficult!” Ye Zhong smiled.
“Try your best!” Su Yu sighed. How could she back down now that things had developed to this point?
“The people from the Song Clan arrive.”
While Ye Zhong and Su Yu were discussing, a stirring sound was heard among the crowd, and then from another direction, there were nearly a hundred people marching out from the forest, and the person leading them was Song Shaochen of the Song Clan.
“Senior Brother Song Shaochen is here, I’m afraid that this Innate Temple’s Ruins should be opened soon.” Su Yu’s gaze swept across them and spoke with a grave expression.
Other than Mo Fanglong and Lei Ruoxu, both Rong Tian and Song Shaochen were not easy characters to deal with. Even Su Yu herself frowned when she saw them appear.
“Heh, Junior Sister Su Yu, I don’t expect you to come as well.”
At that moment, Song Shaochen seemed to have noticed Su Yu’s and Ye Zhong’s gazes. He looked over and stopped on Ye Zhong for a moment before looking at Su Yu with a smile.
However, after finishing his sentence, he did not come over to reminisce about old times. Instead, he nodded his head in greeting and then looked at the valley that was shrouded in twilight mist with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
A strange expression can be seen on the faces of countless people when they saw Song Shaochen’s expression. After which, their gazes landed on the valley. Evidently, no one had made any unnecessary movements at this moment.
However, the present atmosphere was getting even more arduous with the flow of time. Many people’s eyes were starting to become somewhat watery, it felt as if this place was filled with gunpowder. As long as there was even a single spark, it would explode.
Just as the gathered experts were about to lose their patience and become irritated, a strange buzzing sound could suddenly be heard. Then, the mist in the valley started to surge wildly.
“The entrance to the Innate Temple is about to open!”
At this moment, countless people’s bodies trembled, their eyes filled with joy. Obviously, a lot of people had been waiting for the Innate Temple for a long time! This was because the inheritance of the Innate Temple also meant a strand of chance to advance into the Innate Martial Realm. In a Great Zhou Dynasty where Innate Martial Dao experts were regarded equivalently as the aspect of hero, such an opportunity was enough to move everyone’s heart!
As the twilight mist dispersed, one could see the outlines of countless big and small pavilions appearing in the depths of the mist. These outlines were almost similar to the hologram that appeared on the strange stele back then. The instant it appeared, it caused everyone’s breathing to become more and more heavy.
All of this signified that the Innate Temple was about to open!
“Is the Innate Temple has indeed opened?” When Ye Zhong landed at the entrance of the Innate Temple, his eyes also flashed with a faint sense of solemnity. This Innate Temple was not as simple as he had imagined.
“Heh, the Innate Temple, isn’t it?” In another direction, Lei Ruoxu faintly shook his hand as a grave look was deep within his eyes. He knew a lot about the Innate Temple, so there was a hidden excitement in his eyes.
“Innate Temple! The luck and fate of the Innate Martial Dao!” Song Shaochen stepped forward, his handsome face was full of determination.
Even the twilight mist in the valley continued to scatter to both sides and the valley became clearer, but it did not completely disappear. Instead, it seemed to become denser again after a period of time.
“What is still missing, what else is missing to open the Innate Temple!” Among the crowd, someone suddenly shouted in a stern voice.
In the next moment, the gazes of almost everyone present landed on Song Shaochen.
Even with Song Shaochen’s strength and temperament, when he was being stared at by so many crimson red eyes, his body involuntarily trembled. However, in the next instant, he coldly snorted and waved his hand, causing an ancient stele to appear in front of him.
Clearly, Song Shaochen knew that under the watchful eyes of so many people, if he did not take out the stele to give it a try, most likely, these people would not take his status into account. And this kind of public anger, even if he was the Heir of the Five Great Clans or an Inner Disciple of the Xingxiang Sect, he wouldn’t dare to offend them.
“*Whizz Whizz Whizz——*”
The next instant when the stele appeared, nobody saw how Song Shaochen activated it, but there was a blinding light and whistling sound out from it almost the same time, and then it landed in the valley……
