The situation was much more serious than he had imagined. It was hard to imagine that the Sacred Yin Sect had such a big goal. What Xiao Chen was most worried about now was whether the Vein of Heaven had been destroyed by the Sacred Yin Sect.
Wu Die had already given up after hearing Xiao Chen's question. Since she had already said what she needed to say, there was no point in saying more or less. Therefore, without much hesitation, Wu Die shook her head and said, "Not yet.
The Vein of Heaven has a self-protection mechanism. Those below the Saint Realm can't even get close to it, let alone enter it. Therefore, the Saintess-to-be has been using the talisman given by the Sacred Master to wear down the self-protection mechanism of the Vein of Heaven. Calculating the time, it will take at least half a month to break through the self-protection mechanism of the Vein of Heaven. "
The Vein of Heaven didn't have any consciousness or intelligence. However, as a unique existence between heaven and earth, its power couldn't be ignored. There was a self-protection mechanism around the Vein of Heaven.
Even a Saint Realm expert would find it difficult to break through the self-protection mechanism. Therefore, the disciples of the Sacred Yin Sect hadn't destroyed the Vein of Heaven during the time they were in the Azure Lake Mansion.
They could only use the talisman refined by the Saints of the Sacred Yin Sect before they left to slowly wear down the self-protection mechanism of the Vein of Heaven before they could enter.
Hearing Wu Die's words, Xiao Chen let out a sigh of relief. As long as it hadn't been destroyed, there would be a chance to salvage the situation. But soon, Xiao Chen thought of a problem. Since the Sacred Yin Sect's goal was to destroy the Heavenly Veins of the Ancient Saint State, why didn't they just send a Saint? Even if it wasn't a Saint, wouldn't it be better to send a true Saint? Wouldn't the success rate be much higher?
Xiao Chen asked the question in his mind. Hearing his question, Wu Die gave him an answer.
It wasn't that the Sacred Yin Sect didn't want to send a Saint or a Saint, but that they had no other choice.
The reason was simple. The Saints, Saints, and Saintesses of the Four Sacred Sects were all under the surveillance of the other Sacred Sects. Once there was any movement, the other Sacred Sects would be the first to receive the news.
Therefore, the Sacred Yin Sect had no way of sending the Saints and Saintesses. After all, if the Saints and Saintesses of the Sacred Yin Sect suddenly disappeared, the Ancient Sacred Sect would definitely receive the news immediately. In that case, let alone destroying the Veins of Heaven, they might not even be able to successfully infiltrate the Azure Lake Manor.
The stronger one was, the more attention they would attract. Under the eyes of so many people, many things would be difficult to do. Therefore, instead of letting the Saints and Saintesses do it, it would be better to let the Saintesses do it. This way, the success rate would be higher. After all, the Ancient Saint Sect would not be prepared.
After hearing Wu Die's explanation, Xiao Chen nodded in agreement.
Xiao Chen had asked all the questions he needed to ask. The severity of the matter was beyond his imagination. He decided to tell the truth to the Saints. After all, it was related to the Veins of the Heavens. It was best to let the Saints decide for themselves.
Xiao Chen looked at Senior Hei and said, "Senior Hei, go and report this matter to the Holy Venerates. Let them make a decision personally."
After receiving Xiao Chen's order, Senior Hei knew that this matter was not a joke. He immediately nodded in agreement and went to see the Azure Lake Saint.
After reporting the matter of the Sacred Yin Sect to the Saints, Xiao Chen asked about Gu Lingyao.
Sensing Xiao Chen's gaze on her, Wu Die said unhappily, "I've already told you everything I know. What else do you want?"
Wu Die naturally did not have a good impression of Xiao Chen. In her opinion, this man had no manners at all. Faced with Wu Die's cold rebuke, Xiao Chen said indifferently.
"I know, but I'm not going to ask you about this matter. I'm going to ask you about something else."
"Something else? What else do you want to ask? "Wu Die asked in confusion.
"You're a disciple of the Sacred Yin Sect. Do you know that there's a girl called Gu Lingyao in the Sacred Yin Sect?" Xiao Chen asked.
Wu Die was a core disciple of the Sacred Yin Sect. When Xiao Chen asked her about Gu Lingyao, he originally thought that he would be able to find out about Gu Lingyao's recent situation from her. Unfortunately, Xiao Chen was disappointed.
After hearing Xiao Chen's question, Wu Die pondered for a moment, then shook her head blankly.
"Gu Lingyao? I've never heard of this name. Are you sure she's a disciple of the Sacred Yin Sect?"
Wu Die had no impression of Gu Lingyao at all. Looking at Wu Die's expression, she did not seem to be lying. Furthermore, since she had even told him about the Vein of Heaven, there was no reason for her to hide anything about Gu Lingyao.
Wu Die truly did not know about Gu Lingyao. She did not even know that there was such a person in the Sacred Yin Sect.
Xiao Chen was a little disappointed that he did not get any information about Gu Lingyao from Wu Die. Thinking about it carefully, since Gu Lingyao was related to the Moon Goddess Physique, it was naturally a secret to the Sacred Yin Sect.
Wu Die was only a core disciple. It was reasonable that she did not know about Gu Lingyao. After all, core disciples had a hard time coming into contact with the true upper echelons.
It seemed that if he wanted to know about Gu Lingyao, he would have to ask the direct disciples or the prospective Holy Maiden.
After asking all the questions, Wu Die no longer had any value to Xiao Chen. Neither of them spoke anymore. Xiao Chen and Wu Die each had their own thoughts. For a moment, the room was silent.
Not long after, Senior Hei returned. From the looks of it, he should have already met with the Jade Lake Saint. Seeing this, Xiao Chen asked, "How was it?"
"Young master, I have already informed the Jade Lake Saint. The Jade Lake Saint asked young master to send Wu Die over. She wants to personally ask about it." Senior Hei replied when he heard Xiao Chen's words.
The Jade Lake Saint wanted to personally ask Wu Die. Hearing this, Xiao Chen did not say anything. He had already asked what he wanted to ask. Furthermore, Wu Die did not know about Gu Lingyao. Since that was the case, there was no harm in handing her over to the Jade Lake Saint.
Immediately, Xiao Chen asked Senior Hei to send Wu Die to the Guardian Saint.
Wu Die was taken away. As for how the Ancient Sacred Sect would deal with her, Xiao Chen did not care. Now, Xiao Chen was only worried about two things. The first was how the Ancient Sacred Sect would deal with the Sacred Yin Sect's actions this time. The second was how Gu Lingyao was doing in the Sacred Yin Sect.
Slowly walking to the window, Xiao Chen looked at the crescent moon in the sky and softly muttered with a face full of disappointment.
"Lingyao, are you doing well in the Sacred Yin Sect?"
He was very worried about Gu Lingyao. He could not imagine how he would deal with it if something happened to Gu Lingyao.
Following Xiao Chen's melancholy, Xiao Sheng's voice rang out in his mind. "Kid, there's no point in thinking about it. Quickly raise your strength. When you become a Holy Son one day, you can head to the Sacred Yin Sect."
