When the last person disappeared into the darkness, Long Tianhao immediately said, "Alright, we have to say our last prayer. Please leave immediately."
The crowd immediately retreated, and Long Tianhao brought her to the depths of the Holy Hall.
She then saw clearly that there was no statue in the Holy Hall.
There was only a deep corridor, and she had no idea where it led to.
Just now, Lord Yuan and the others had disappeared from this place.
Until now, she was still confused.
It was not until Long Tianhao brought her into a small dark room that Lin Mengya was in.
"Mengya, are you alright?"
He looked at her anxiously, and after making sure that she was safe, the anxiety in his eyes lessened a little.
"What's going on here? What Celestial Kingdom? And who is Lord Yuan? "
Her intuition told her that there was a secret that she had never imagined.
But unknowingly, she had been deeply involved in it.
Long Tianhao looked at her and hesitated.
"Let me tell her. You'd better get ready."
His gentle voice was tinged with exhaustion.
Lin Mengya looked behind Long Tianhao, and saw a slender man in his forties coming in from the door. He had a pale face.
"Teacher, I'm counting on you."
Long Tianhao was very respectful to him, and she could tell that he trusted him.
Lin Mengya was not unfamiliar with this title at all.
"You're the Lord of the Holy Hall, aren't you?"
Even though she had seen him before, she didn't expect him to be a fake.
The Lord standing in front of her was kind, gentle, and handsome, but there was a hint of worry on his face.
Instead of saying that he was a high and mighty Lord, it would be better to say that he was a savior who cared about the world.
"That's right, you go first. She has the right to know everything. I've told you not to hide it from her. "
The Palace Lord sighed softly and said gently.
Long Tianhao's eyes flashed, and he looked at her with a complicated expression, and then he turned and walked out of the room.
"Have a seat, Miss. It's not too late."
Lin Mengya found it difficult to go against his words.
His tone was very light and indifferent.
However, it made people want to unconsciously obey. It wasn't the kind of order, but the wonderful feeling of being persuaded.
Lin Mengya obediently sat on the chair next to her, and the Temple Lord also sat next to her.
After letting out another faint sigh, he faintly said, "Do you want to know the source of all this?"
He had guessed Lin Mengya's thoughts. She really wanted to know what was the big hand that had pushed her here unknowingly.
The Temple Master looked at her gently. It was only then that Lin Mengya realized that the Temple Master's eyes were a rare light gray color.
"It all started about fifty years ago, when your great-grandmother heard the oracle and came to me," Li Yao said.
She was a little excited. She had a feeling that she was about to learn some incredible secrets.
"Your great-grandmother was a very smart person. The Gong Family had indeed developed very well under her leadership. At that time, your Gong family was undoubtedly the leader of the Ten Great Families. However, the Gong family had always kept a secret. That is, the heads of each generation of the Gong family were actually twins. "
Lin Mengya's heart skipped a beat. She had never heard of this.
What the Temple Master told her next made Lin Mengya completely dumbfounded.
"In fact, the twins of each generation of the Gong family were not the children of their husbands. This was the price that the Gong family had to pay when they gained wealth. Your great-grandmother, on the other hand, was a husband who loved her dearly. Therefore, she found out the secret. "
Lin Mengya only felt that her worldview had been shattered.
"Then, then my grandmother …"
"Your grandmother was an exception, because your great-grandmother gave birth to a pair of stillborn babies."
She curled her fingers tightly together.
How to put it? She had probably never thought that things would turn out like this.
After answering her question, the Temple Master continued, "However, the reason why the Gong family exists is that one of the twins is to be left as a sacrifice. After giving birth to the pair of stillborn babies, your great-grandmother discussed with me how to deal with this matter. At that time, I did not know that the Holy Temple was actually just a gatehouse to guard the gates of the Immortal City. "
When he said this, there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
Lin Mengya did not dare to interrupt and could only listen to him.
"You must be very curious and want to know about the Immortal City. Then, I will tell you. The Immortal City is a huge cage, and in it, the evilest demons in the world are trapped. Also. Do you know why Wei Country exists, and why it has become like this? "
Lin Mengya shook her head. She only felt that Wei Country was a little strange, but she did not know the reason.
"Because the huge Wei Country is just a hell used by the Immortal City to keep slaves!"
The Temple Master was a little agitated, and he began to cough.
Lin Mengya immediately went up to him and patted his back, following his rapid breathing.
"How did you get seriously injured?"
She was a little surprised. She had subconsciously felt his pulse just now, and found that the Temple Master had actually suffered a serious internal injury.
At this moment, there was a rumble outside again. However, it seemed to have shrunk a lot.
Upon hearing the voice, the Palace Master knitted his brows tightly.
"It's alright, I won't die. We don't have much time, let me finish first. "
The Temple Master spoke faster, and Lin Mengya could feel the urgency in his tone.
"The Holy Temple was built according to the mountain because the middle of the mountain has been hollowed out. To reach the Immortal City, you must first go through the passage in the belly of the mountain. Remember, when you go with Xi 'er later, you must not let them see you. But you are the only one who can kill them completely. Later, no matter what you see, do not panic. Remember, after you kill them, you will leave the Holy Temple with Xi 'er! "
"But Senior, what's going on with the offerings and the Gong Family?"
The Temple Master looked outside, hesitated, and said, "Because the offerings of the Gong Family are tools for the Immortal City to groom the Son of Saint. Back then, your great-grandmother used a deceitful scheme to allow the Gong family to live through fifty years of peace. But now, it's time to offer the offerings again, and this time, their target is you. "
Before she finished speaking, she rushed out of the room with the Temple Master.
Lin Mengya's mind was in a mess.
But now, she understood a few things.
First, the Gong Family was glorious because the previous masters of the family had exchanged with the people of the Immortal City.
Second, her great-grandmother found out the secret of the offerings, but she did not compromise, which led to the series of events that followed.
Third, she became the target of the people of the Immortal City.
But she still did not understand what the Immortal City was.
And where did the passage hidden in the belly of the mountain lead to?
She became more and more confused, but the more she felt that this might be related to a great conspiracy.
But now, there was no time for her to think quietly.
Outside, Long Tianhao had changed into a tight black suit.
"Okay, I'll send you here. Xi 'er, be careful. "
The Temple Master seemed to be in a serious condition. After sending them outside, he was helped down by two people.
"Yes, Teacher, please rest assured. I'll bring you back safely."
Long Tianhao had a serious look on his face.
The uneasiness in Lin Mengya's heart gradually disappeared. Yes, with him by her side, what was there to be afraid of?
"Let's go."
He held her hand. Behind him, many black-clothed men had actually gathered at an unknown time.
She looked back and saw a few familiar faces.
Baili Wuchen and Ling Ye were there. Lin Mengya suddenly had an illusion that she wanted to go to the battlefield with him.
"Are you afraid?"
He asked softly, but Lin Mengya shook her head firmly without hesitation.
"I'm not afraid as long as you're here."
He smiled and held her hand. With a murderous look, he raised his voice and said, "Let's go!"
Everyone followed him silently and rushed into the deep corridor.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were walking in the middle. The men in black beside them were all in an orderly manner.
The atmosphere was indescribably tense. Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao finally reached the end of the corridor.
In front of them was a huge stone door.
Long Tianhao waved his hand and someone immediately rushed up and opened the stone door.
Inside, it was not as dark as she had expected. The wide stone steps, which could allow dozens of people to pass at the same time, extended into the distance.
It was empty here, but there was a light that had not yet been extinguished.
The people seemed to be familiar with this place. The well-trained people ran down quickly like a tide.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao could not help but quicken their pace.
"Don't be afraid, we can catch up with them."
He comforted her in a low voice. Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment and then realized what he was talking about.
"Is it Lord Yuan and the others?"
Long Tianhao nodded and said in an even lower voice, "I won't let anyone bring back any news about you. Don't worry, no one can take you away from me. "
She was a little sad. She knew that Long Tianhao was the one who would not hurt her, but why did she suspect that he had ulterior motives?
But Long Tianhao did not give her too much time.
"Let's go back and talk about other things. It's not your fault. It's okay. "
Even now, he was still comforting her.
