She went against the crowd and squeezed out with her second brother.
Although it seemed like Ling Ye was the best candidate, the Great Elder of the Holy Sorcerer Tribe's pupil technique had failed. This should have made the Deputy Palace Master and the people behind him realize that Ling Ye might not be trustworthy.
Furthermore, Yu had already appeared. If he was replaced by Ling Ye, he would also be dead.
Therefore, Ling Ye might just be the Deputy Palace Master's cover.
She thought for a moment and said softly, "Second Brother, let's go to the tenth level to take a look."
That special little courtyard.
The Deputy Palace Master had been thinking about how to become the Palace Master. This was the only thing he cared about.
She could tell that the Deputy Palace Master was extremely fearful of the people in the courtyard. At the same time, she saw the reluctance on the Deputy Palace Master's face when he left the courtyard.
Since the Deputy Palace Master had already controlled the entire Divine Temple and no one dared to disrespect him, the identity of the people in the courtyard was obvious.
They must be the Deputy Palace Master's supporters!
The reason why these people could make the Deputy Palace Master work for them must be because they had something that the Deputy Palace Master wanted.
Apart from power, it must be longevity!
She was almost certain that the reason why the Vice Palace Master was so calm and could even use the Golden Cicada to escape was because he had a trump card in his hand.
The people in the Divine Temple would definitely not be able to gain his absolute trust. Therefore, he had to rely on the people in the courtyard.
Fortunately, most of the people were at the bottom level and they reached the tenth level without any obstacles.
However, the moment she stepped on the stairs to the tenth level, her second brother suddenly pulled her down.
An arrow pierced the spot where she had just landed. Lin Mengya could only feel cold sweat trickling down her back. If not for her second brother, she might not have been able to dodge this arrow.
"Be careful and follow behind me!"
Gong Er said in a low voice. He drew his sword and looked around cautiously like a leopard that was ready to pounce.
Lin Mengya also activated her system's functions. She did not know why, but her system's detection function seemed to be obstructed.
On the surface, the tenth level seemed empty and there was not a single person.
However, both she and her second brother knew that there was a hidden danger here that could take their lives at any time.
The person behind him seemed to have quietened down after shooting the arrow.
Compared to her sluggish probing, it was clear that her second brother's intuition, honed on the battlefield, was much sharper.
They walked forward step by step, and Gong Er pulled out the arrow that almost took her life.
Lin Mengya took a look at the arrowhead.
Every faction's weapons were different, and some special equipment could have unexpected effects on the battlefield.
However, the style of the arrowhead was very strange. Other people's arrowheads were sharper and had barbs or other designs to reduce air resistance.
However, the tip of this arrow was hooked back. This way, it was very likely that it wouldn't hurt anyone. However, if the distance was close enough or the power of the bow was strong enough, it wouldn't be easy to pull the arrow out once it entered the body.
Just like a fish hook, once it hit a vital point, it would be fatal.
Although there was such a possibility, such a weapon couldn't be made by an ordinary person. Not to mention the material of the arrow, the amount of manpower needed to use this weapon was extraordinary.
She stuck close to her second brother's back and whispered, "Second brother!
Do you know who would use such a weapon? "
Gong Er glanced at it and shook his head with a serious expression.
Although this arrow didn't hit its target, he had already sensed the extraordinary murderous aura of the other party.
He was afraid that the person who came was not easy to deal with.
The two of them moved cautiously, ready to meet the enemy's sneak attack at any time.
Lin Mengya was quite familiar with the terrain here.
"As long as we enter the Divine Hall, we can use the buildings inside as cover. However, there were many people patrolling there before. I don't know if they are inside now. "
If it was just a patrol team, she believed that her second brother could still deal with it.
Gong Er nodded and said, "Let's go first. After ensuring your safety, I'll come out to find the person who intended to sneak attack you."
Lin Mengya knew that her poor martial arts would only cause trouble for her second brother.
The two of them agreed and quickly moved towards the direction of the Divine Hall.
Halfway through, she felt a chill run down her spine.
"Second brother, be careful!"
She took the opportunity to lie on the ground and roll forward. Well, her second brother was above her, and he cut off many arrows that came at her.
The sound of "ping pang pang pang" made her heart sink.
She originally thought that there was only one sneak attacker, but now it seemed that she had underestimated the other party's ambush.
She hurriedly climbed up from the ground, and her second brother grabbed her hand and shouted angrily, "Go in!"
Before she could react, she was pushed into the Divine Hall by her second brother.
In an instant, those arrows that came at her were blocked by the tall walls of the Divine Hall.
Lin Mengya quickly ran inside, and at the same time, her detection function told her that there was no one here.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter the worst situation.
Without her burden, her second brother's action was obviously faster than before.
He fought and retreated, and finally succeeded in retreating into the Divine Hall, and slammed the door hard.
As the door closed, all the arrows were blocked outside.
Hearing the sound of the door banging, Lin Mengya and Gong Er both looked solemn.
"Second brother, you hold here first. I'll go inside and see if there are other exits."
Gong Er nodded.
Lin Mengya quickly ran inside. It was really too big inside, especially now that they were running for their lives. She hated the Deputy Temple Master even more. Why did he do such a wasteful thing for no reason?
After looking around, the result caught her off guard.
There was actually no back door in such a big Divine Hall.
What if there was a fire here? What should she do? Was she going to be burned alive here?
Lin Mengya realized that it was not a jinx that would bring disaster, but a raven's imagination could also bring danger.
Just as she was busy looking for a new exit, her second brother suddenly came looking for her with a solemn face.
"Little sister, have you found it?"
Lin Mengya shook her head, looking a little depressed.
But the news brought by her second brother made her even more nervous.
"They have piled up a lot of wood outside, and now they have lit a fire. I'm afraid they want to smoke us to death here."
Her second brother looked calm. Although Lin Mengya didn't seem to panic, she silently slapped herself several times in her heart.
Good things didn't happen, but bad things did.
Gong Er thought she was afraid, and immediately comforted her, "Don't worry, the fire won't spread here for a while. There are stones everywhere in the Divine Hall, so we can hold on for a while."
So her second brother was very optimistic, but she knew that the situation was actually quite unfavorable for them.
Although the fire might not spread to here, the thick smoke could still kill them.
She had a flash of inspiration, and pulled her second brother to run to the innermost part.
How could she forget the room where the Temple Master's master was before?
If there was a back door in the Divine Hall, she thought it must be there, because the stone door could be the best place to hide.
And when the Temple Master's master was locked there, no one noticed it. It must be because there was a passage leading to the Divine Hall.
Otherwise, if someone wanted to leave, how could the Deputy Temple Master suddenly attack the Temple Master's master?
Gong Er trusted her very much, and they quickly ran to the stone door.
Using the method last time, she and her second brother climbed inside one after another.
It was pitch-black inside. Second Brother took out a torch from his waist and quickly looked at his surroundings.
"Have you been here before?"
Lin Mengya nodded, and kept looking for the exit on the wall.
After coming in, she quickly checked with the system to make sure that there was no third person present.
Finally, she pressed a place that seemed to be a trap. When she was about to tell her second brother the good news, she suddenly heard a sound like someone falling to the ground.
"What's wrong with you, second brother? Are you hurt? "
Lin Mengya thought of how her second brother faced those sneak attackers alone to protect her.
She suddenly became a little nervous, because those arrows were not simple. If her second brother was hit, they would be in trouble.
But she didn't expect that a very strange female voice came from the darkness.
"Don't be afraid, he just fell asleep."
The voice seemed to be very close to her, and Lin Mengya immediately became nervous, and all the hair on her body stood up. She tried to control herself, and asked in a relatively calm tone, "Who are you? What do you want to do? How is my second brother? "
The tone of the other party didn't sound malicious, but now the situation was special, and Lin Mengya would not let go of any possibility.
She could hear the voice getting closer and closer, but she couldn't hear the other party's footsteps, and she couldn't sense the other party's existence.
Countless hair-raising thoughts came to her mind, and she immediately clenched her fingers tightly, trying to use the little bit of pain to keep herself calm.
In the darkness, the person seemed to come to her.
"So this is what you look like."
What did he mean? Could it be that he was here to criticize her?
Then she heard the other party say with some disappointment, "What a pity, I thought you might lose this time."
Lin Mengya was confused by the two sentences that she suddenly said.
The doubt slightly washed away some of the fear, and she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pretending to be calm and asked, "What do you mean? Have you seen me before? "
"Yes, I saw you when you were born."
What?
Lin Mengya felt like a monk scratching his head in confusion.
If the other party wanted to hurt her, he could do it now.
