Chapter 1740: The Upper Core of the Pillar of Destruction (3)

Yuan Zhi raised his hand, gesturing for everyone to quiet down. After everyone fell silent, he said, “This matter is beyond my expectations as well. However, we can act rashly now. We have to see the other halls’ stances. If the Unholy One has truly returned, then we can only rely on the Sacred Temple. Don’t forget, we were part of those who participated in ambushing the Unholy One back then…”

Everyone became listless immediately. They hated the Sacred Temple and were dissatisfied with the temple’s way of handling matters. However, with the threat of the Unholy One, they had no choice but to rely on the Sacred Temple.

“I have an idea…”

“Speak.”

“Since Ye Tianxin is our new commander, we’ll just act as usual. Show her respect as usual and bring her to the Pillar of Destruction’s upper core to comprehend the Great Dao as the temple ordered. However, at the critical moment, we’ll replace her with Commander Yuan. We can come up with an excuse to deceive everyone else. Moreover, regardless of the temple’s attitude, there’s no way they’ll want a disciple of the Unholy One to enter the upper core of the pillar.”

The Pillars of Destruction were divided into two parts. The bottom part in the Unknown Land was generally referred to as the Pillar of Destruction as well while the upper part at the Great Void was referred to as the upper core of the Pillar of Destruction. The source of the Great Void energy came from the upper core, and it was also the place to comprehend the Great Dao.

Upon hearing these words, Yuan Zhi’s eyes lit up. No one would remain unmoved when faced with the Great Dao, after all.

“I agree.”

Yuan Zhi felt his blood boil, and a sense of excitement rose in his heart. He rose to his feet and said in a clear voice, “I’m truly indebted to everyone’s favor. All of you are my best brothers. Since everyone’s so supportive of me, I can’t let all of you down. We’ll follow this plan and bring Ye Tianxin to the upper core.”

“Yes!”

Everyone agreed immediately.

“The other halls must have also heard about the rumors regarding the Unholy One. We have to be careful and keep this plan a secret.”

Everyone nodded in unison.

…

Ye Tianxin, who was resting in a Dao hall in Rou Zhao Hall, was unaware of everything. Those from the hall had been respectful to her since the day she joined the hall. She did not bother with other things and focused on cultivating every day.

When Ye Tianxin was just finished with her daily cultivation, a female attendant walked in and said with a bow, “Commander, the Sacred Temple has ordered for you to head to the upper core of the Pillar of Destruction to comprehend the Great Dao. Commander Yuan and the elders have also received the order to bring you there.”

Ye Tianxin had been waiting for this day for a long time now. She nodded and said, “I understand.”

When Ye Tianxin left the hall, she recalled the thunderous noise earlier so she asked, “How’s the pillar?”

“It looks like it’s going to collapse,” the female attendant replied honestly.

Ye Tianxin nodded. ‘No wonder everyone’s so anxious…’

Soon enough, Ye Tianxin saw Rou Zhao Hall’s flying chariot waiting for her. When she flew into the flying chariot, she saw Yuan Zhi and many elders of Rou Zhao Hall already waiting. She noticed their strange gazes on her and asked with a slight frown, “Do I look terrible?”

Yuan Zhi quickly smiled and said, “No, no, no. Commander Ye is a beauty who can topple a nation. Everyone can help but take a few more looks, that’s all. I hope Commander Ye can forgive us.”

Ye Tianxin sensed that the matter was not as simple as that; their expressions truly did not look right. After a brief moment, she asked, “What happened in the Great Void?”

“The pillars look like they’re going to collapse; everyone’s naturally worried,” Yuan Zhi explained.

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianxin said, “Don’t worry too much. My master is in the Great Void. With him around, all of you will be fine.”

“…”

‘Are you mocking us? Your master is the Unholy One! Are you planning to let him deal with us in one fell swoop? On the surface, she looks pure and flawless, hiding her vicious heart!’

Outwardly, everyone smiled awkwardly and tacitly remained silent.
