Chapter 739 - 739 Dark Surge


739 Dark Surge


Under the lead of First Elder, the elders headed to the 10,000 Beast Temple.


The guards outside the hall were stunned when they saw the elders.


First Elder asked, “Is the prophet in the hall?”


The guards looked at each other. The oldest guard stepped forward and replied, “The prophet is resting in the hall. He hasn’t been feeling well recently. He specially instructed us to close the door and refuse guests.”

!!

Normally, when the elders heard this, they would usually choose to visit another day, but today, they were here for the prophet.


They had to see the prophet now!


The elders ignored the guards and forced their way into the temple.


When they crossed the threshold, the sh.e.l.l wind chimes hanging above the door swayed gently with a crisp clang.


The divine servants rushed over after hearing the news and stopped the elders from entering.


“The prophet is resting and can’t see anyone. Please leave immediately!”


There were a total of ten elders, but there were more than 40 divine servants. Moreover, the guards had also rushed in and surrounded the elders. It seemed that they would never let them into the temple.


Seeing this, First Elder suddenly smiled. “It seems that my information was right. The prophet is indeed not in the temple.”


A divine servant immediately argued, “The prophet is in the hall. He needs to rest in seclusion because he’s not feeling well. It’s against the rules for you to barge into the temple. Now, you’re talking nonsense. Are you planning to rebel when the prophet isn’t feeling well?!”


The elders’ expressions changed.


First Elder glanced at the divine servant. He was one of the prophet’s trusted aides, Jian Yi.


“We have something important to tell the prophet in person. What does it have to do with rebellion? You’re just a divine servant. Didn’t the prophet teach you not to cause trouble?”


Jian Yi retorted, “You brought so many people in and suspect that the prophet isn’t in the hall. Do you dare say that you don’t have any other thoughts? We’re all sensible people. Don’t use your status to suppress us! This is the 10,000 Beast Temple. Both you and we are under the jurisdiction of the prophet. Now that the prophet says that he wants to meditate, we can’t let anyone enter the temple. Please don’t disobey the prophet’s orders!”


First Elder pointed at his face. “Very good. Your mouth is indeed powerful. The prophet was right about you!”


Jian Yi bowed and cupped his hands. “Goodbye, Elders!”


First Elder flicked his sleeves and left with a cold expression.


Since their leader was leaving, the other elders naturally followed.


After they all left the temple, Jian Yi said to the guards, “Brothers, please guard this place and don’t let anyone enter the temple. If some Tom, d.i.c.k, or Harry accidentally barges in and disturbs the prophet’s rest, causing his condition to worsen, none of us will be able to bear the responsibility.”


The guards’ hearts skipped a beat, and they quickly agreed. “We understand.”


“Go out and guard the place.”


The guards retreated from the temple and returned to their posts.


The divine servants surrounded Jian Yi and asked questions at once.


“Is the prophet really not in the temple? Has he gone down the mountain?”


Jian Yi shouted in a low voice, “Enough!”


There was a sudden pause. Everyone shut up, their expressions resentful.


Although they were all divine servants, their statuses were also different.


Jian Yi was the one the prophet trusted most, and all the divine servants in the hall were under his management. He was also a strict and rigid person, causing everyone to be a little afraid of him.


“The prophet is not in good health. He’s resting in the temple and has never left the temple. If any of you spout nonsense again, I’ll cut off your tongue!”


Jian Yi looked around, his gaze sharp and cold.


The divine servants he saw all lowered their heads, not daring to say anything else.


The atmosphere became very oppressive and uncomfortable.


“Everyone, disperse.”


As soon as Jian Yi said this, the divine servants immediately dispersed as if they had been pardoned.


When most of them had left, another divine servant walked out from behind the pillar. Like Jian Yi, he was a trusted aide of the prophet.


He said to Jian Yi, “The news that the prophet is not in the temple has spread. There must be spies from the Elders’ a.s.sociation.”


Jian Yi’s face darkened. “It’s not just the Elders Council. The royal family must have sent spies too.”


The status of the 10,000 Beast Temple in the City of 10,000 Beasts was too high. Countless pairs of eyes were fixed on this place. Many people were thinking of ways to squeeze their spies in. The obvious spies had been dealt with by Jian Yi and the others in advance, but there were still many hidden in the dark. They could not do anything about it.


Jian Yi turned to look out of the hall, his gaze calm. “The fact that the prophet isn’t in the temple can’t be hidden for long. We have to inform the prophet as soon as possible and ask him to return to the temple to calm people down.”


“I’ll make the arrangements now.”



After the elders went down the mountain, their expressions were complicated.


Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Is the prophet really not in the temple?”


First Elder said nothing. He put one hand behind his back, his expression unreadable.


Second Elder took the initiative to say, “The prophet is definitely not in the hall. If he was, would Jian Yi be so nervous? He’s just guilty and afraid that we’ll barge in and discover the truth about the prophet’s absence.”


“But we didn’t go in, after all. We can’t be sure if the prophet is really not there. It’s not appropriate to jump to conclusions now, right?”


This matter was not small, so they had to be careful.


First Elder finally said, “Our intrusion into the temple today must have alerted Jian Yi. He’s always been meticulous. Just to be safe, he’ll immediately send people to look for the prophet. We just have to send people to guard the divine mountain. As long as we see a suspicious person descending the mountain, we’ll capture him and force the truth out of him.”


Everyone nodded. “First Elder, that’s a good idea!”


First Elder looked back at the high and mighty 10,000 Beast Temple, his eyes filled with scheming.


‘Now that the prophet is not around, don’t even think about defeating me!’



At this moment, Huanhuan had successfully arrived outside Sun City.


She looked at the white tiger stone statue at the city gate and couldn’t help but sigh.


The last time she came here was more than 20 years ago. At that time, she had just become mates with Bai Di. She saw Bai Di’s father, Bai Ming, and Bai Di’s brother, Bai Luo.


Now that Bai Ming was dead, Bai Luo had become the new beast king.


And she and Bai Di had children of their own.


Huanhuan sighed. “Things have changed.”


Little Brat said, “Don’t be in a hurry to lament about life. Hurry up and think of a way to hide your youngest son.”


“Huh?”
