942: Temple Elder

"Captain, that's really the Captain!" Liangcai Sword said excitedly, suppressing his voice.

Two different tones for 'Captain' represented different people.

Qing Youyu remained silent, but her serious expression showed that she was still eagerly waiting to go forward and rescue Wen Xiu Cheng!

If not for Du Xingchen's increased prestige among everyone over the past few days, Qing Youyu would not be waiting for Du Xingchen's order here; she would have already rushed forward headfirst.

"Captain, when are we taking action?" Liangcai Sword asked again.

Seeing that Wen Xiu Cheng hadn't suffered any significant harm, everyone's mood relaxed considerably, and they became very concerned about rescuing Wen Xiu Cheng.

"Let's wait a bit first. Every one of these people is strong, and if we show ourselves rashly, we might be attacked by the group," Du Xingchen said to comfort the few people.

In reality, he was waiting for someone.

Waiting for the protagonist, Moyun!

He understood that since Moyun had come to Jiaolong Valley, it was impossible for him not to encounter Wen Xiu Cheng.

Once he saw Wen Xiu Cheng, Moyun would definitely go forward to rescue him; this was his only way to clear his suspicion and rejoin the team!

What Du Xingchen was waiting for was to let Moyun rescue Wen Xiu Cheng.

Or rather, his purpose in coming here was to let his teammates see Wen Xiu Cheng being rescued by Moyun.

As for why he did this, that related to the later plot.

While waiting, the battle between the three teams of Heaven's Chosen had already entered a heated phase.

Among the four-person team, Qing Youyu wanted to make a move several times, but she suppressed the urge.

This was also because Wen Xiu Cheng was currently not harmed, so she could remain somewhat calm.

Also during this wait, suddenly, a figure abruptly darted out from the mountain hollow next to them!

The suddenly appearing figure had a clear target, pointing directly at the location where Wen Xiu Cheng was!

Someone is going towards the Captain!

When Liangcai Sword saw this figure, he immediately made a move.

However, Qing Youyu was faster than him, having already gotten up a moment before him.

Yet, the two hands behind these two people were even faster than them.

Du Xingchen pressed his palms on their shoulders, and the powerful force made both of them pause, stopping their movements.

"Calm down, look clearly at who this person heading towards the Captain is," Du Xingchen reminded them.

Hearing this, the two became slightly more rational.

Then they immediately recognized the person who had suddenly appeared.

"Moyun?!" Liangcai Sword exclaimed in surprise, not having expected it.

As he spoke, Moyun had already arrived beside Wen Xiu Cheng, simultaneously grabbing Wen Xiu Cheng with one hand and fleeing towards the outside of the battlefield!

Besides the protagonist group, the only people concerned about Wen Xiu Cheng's existence were the Heaven's Chosen from the Demon Hall.

When they saw the person placed to the side suddenly being carried away directly by someone, they were stunned for a moment, then immediately shouted to the surroundings: "The person the Elder arranged for us has been taken!"

While speaking, the Captain suddenly slapped the head of a colleague next to him: "Stop fighting, chase him!"

Amidst the roars, the ten people from the Demon Hall also instantly snapped back to their senses.

One by one, they chased madly in the direction Moyun had fled.

"Moyun rescued the Captain?" In the bushes, Sun Yingying asked in confusion, increasing her sense of presence slightly.

Qing Youyu frowned, and Liangcai Sword and Sun Yingying looked at each other.

"Why would Moyun risk saving the Captain? Didn't he cause the Captain to be like this? Or, did we wrong him?" Liangcai Sword, this supporting character, was quickly affected by the protagonist's halo and began to self-reflect.

"No way? If we really wronged him, how big would the misunderstanding be?" Sun Yingying said, covering her mouth with some uncertainty.

"Xingchen, why did Moyun save the Captain?" Liangcai Sword quickly asked Du Xingchen.

In his and the other two teammates' eyes, Du Xingchen clearly knew more things than they did.

Just having contact with the group of Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family and being able to enter Jiaolong Valley with them in advance had already given them quite a few surprises and shocks.

Hearing the questions from these people, Du Xingchen pretended to stroke his chin and fell into thought.

Afterward, he let out a long, faint sigh.

He quickly activated the rule that all of Ye Tian's Hosts would act, and said helplessly: "I thought of a possibility, but I don't want to believe it, and I think you wouldn't want to hear it either."

"What possibility? Captain, just say it!" Liangcai Sword was somewhat anxious.

Sun Yingying also urged: "That's right, Captain, why on earth did Moyun save Wen Xiu Cheng?"

Qing Youyu didn't speak; most of her attention was on the direction Moyun had fled with Wen Xiu Cheng.

But upon hearing Du Xingchen's enigmatic words, her attention also began to return, and her eyes showed curiosity.

Not keeping them in suspense, Du Xingchen began to explain: "Perhaps you don't know, but in this session of Jiaolong Valley, a God's inheritance is about to appear!"

"I learned this news from the group of Heaven's Chosen from the Linshan Country Royal Family."

"God's Inheritance?!" When these four words appeared, the pupils of the three people constricted.

Clearly, they were also momentarily shocked by this information.

"I didn't expect that Jiaolong Valley also contains a God's inheritance, but what does this have to do with Moyun saving the Captain?" Liangcai Sword quickly returned to the main topic and asked.

"It is said that the moment a God's inheritance appears each time, it requires certain conditions to truly open, and only those who open the inheritance and enter the inheritance ground can receive the true inheritance!"

"The God's inheritance in Jiaolong Valley this time is the Dragon God's inheritance, and coincidentally, the requirement for this Dragon God's inheritance to open the inheritance ground is the blood of a person with the Dragon God's Bloodline!"

Du Xingchen stopped speaking here.

Qing Youyu, however, instantly understood and coldly spat out the words from between her teeth, adding: "Xiucheng's Bloodline is the Dragon God's Bloodline. Moyun is saving him because he wants to use his blood to open the inheritance!"

This...

The other two people in the bushes understood; they had a sudden flash of insight amidst their confusion and understood!

Moyun actually went to save Wen Xiu Cheng because of this; it's simply hateful!

"Captain! We can't let Moyun's plan succeed!" Liangcai Sword said anxiously.

Qing Youyu also became serious.

"Let's go, I know the Captain's location, follow me," Du Xingchen took out the Treasure Hunting Plate.

He led the few people towards a certain direction.

Seeing the emotions of these three teammates, Du Xingchen understood that they had largely believed what he said.

In fact, this was also because his prestige among them had increased too much in the past few days.

Otherwise, before this, if he said such things, being ignored or even scoffed at for being overly suspicious would have been very likely.

As for the true course of events, it was actually quite similar to what Du Xingchen described.

He wasn't telling complete lies; half-truths are the easiest to convince people.

The Dragon God's inheritance would only be given to someone with its descendant Bloodline, which meant only Wen Xiu Cheng was the candidate.

This point would not change.

In the original work, with Moyun's help, Wen Xiu Cheng indeed successfully obtained the Dragon God's inheritance.

But the reason why Du Xingchen spoke ill of Moyun like this was because this guy did indeed do a bad thing during this process.

No matter how much the original work glossed over it, it couldn't change the nature of that matter.

Du Xingchen was now helping these few teammates to see Moyun's true face!

...

At the same time.

On the other side of the continent.

God's Temple Main City.

It was still shrouded in an atmosphere of solemnity, and in the palace area of the Divine Hall, the Divine Might was even stronger!

"How is it? Have you found the person who secretly sneaked into the God's palace last time?" In the Elder Hall, the Grand Elder sat in the main seat and asked the Second Elder, who was primarily responsible for this matter, in a heavy tone.

The Second Elder sighed and shook his head: "There is no information at all. That person who broke into the God's palace is not like someone from this World, or perhaps, this person doesn't exist at all."

"I asked the successor of the God of Divination about this matter, but I was told that no one else had entered our God's palace recently."

The Second Elder had put in a lot of effort for this matter.

The final result was that there was no one who had broken into that God's palace.

"Then why were the Restrictions on the prophecy diary damaged? Without someone breaking them, this kind of thing simply couldn't happen!" The Third Elder said, dissatisfied with this result.

"That's the fact. I think this matter should come to an end. We've investigated this far with no leads, and further searching won't yield results. The top priority now is the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination; this is what we should focus on," the Second Elder exhaled a breath of stale air, concluding thus.

The other Elders didn't respond.

It was the Grand Elder who spoke: "Second Elder is right, the top priority is the matter of the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination."

"Everyone, don't forget, a few years ago, the God already informed us through the prophecy diary that in this session of the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination, under conditions of complete fairness and impartiality, the team ranked first will carry the great fortune of this era, and in the future, all of them are destined to ascend!"

"We should also use this last bit of time to fully instruct the Children, allowing them to grow to a level where they can securely obtain first place."

"If the group of Children we cultivate become first, our Divine Hall will flourish greatly in the future! Even in the God Realm, we will occupy a place!"

"What if another team gets first place?" The Third Elder spoke his thoughts.

The Grand Elder frowned and glanced at the Third Elder: "Then kill them all. If they are not people from our Divine Hall, and they occupy the great fortune of being destined to become God, should we not kill such young people and leave them to ride on the heads of our Divine Hall in the future?"

"Hahaha, well said. It's a pity that us top Supreme Experts cannot interfere in the matters between those young people and cannot break the fairness, otherwise, I would definitely go to those major forces and kill all of their younger generation to pave the way for the young people of our Divine Hall."

The Fourth Elder, whose clothing was different from the other Elders, was dressed in black. His voice was loud, and his tone was even more unrestrained.

Half of his face was covered in black and red patterns, ferocious and bizarre. All of his outward appearances and the aura emanating from his body were extremely similar to the demon body on the other half of the God statue in the God's palace!

The other Elders listened to this with frowns but did not say much.
