"Su Saint, those Holy Judges have been arranged according to your wishes."
Yao Jin sat in a wheelchair, his tone respectful: "Is there anything else you would like to instruct?"
Just a mont ago, the temple’s Holy Judges completed their assembly and were distributed to every corner of Light City.
The Gu family did not hide the whereabouts of those Night Watchn.
Su Ye took control of these Holy Judges from Yao Jin and forcibly took over this incident... but Yao Jin remained very calm, not even displaying a hint of resistance.
Su Ye looked at Yao Jin as if he were a stranger.
In his impression, this Yao was not so easy to talk to.
He intended to strip him of his power...
He wouldn’t surrender so easily.
But now that the Holy Judges were obeying orders, he didn’t want to cause more trouble.
Su Ye said indifferently, "Lord Yao indeed understands reason."
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back," Yao Jin said with a smile, dismissively.
"Don’t rush."
Su Ye said slowly, "Lord Yao, there is one more thing I wish to address."
Yao Jin’s gesture of pushing the wheelchair paused slightly.
"I wish to visit Elder Yuan Yang in the Secret Dungeon."
Su Ye said calmly, "You said you were going back, which should an returning to the Secret Dungeon. Since it’s on the way, take along."
"..."
Yao Jin frowned and said, "Su Saint, taking charge of the Holy Judges is one thing, but if you intend to interfere with the Secret Dungeon, that is unquestionably ’overstepping’."
"Don’t worry, I won’t interfere with the matters of the Secret Dungeon."
Su Ye replied, "I only wish to visit... Is it also not allowed to visit the Secret Dungeon at this critical mont?"
"Elder Yuan Yang is on a mission."
Yao Jin shook his head, "At this critical mont, indeed, it’s inconvenient to visit."
"What’s inconvenient about it?" Su Ye pressed on, "I know what task Yuan Yang is doing. ng Xizhou has been held for six years without uttering a word. Would locking him up be of any use? The ng surna is not foolish. She knows you’re playing at sacrifice... Since you manage the Secret Dungeon, open the barrier and isolate ng Xizhou completely from the outside world."
"Since Elder Yuan Yang entered the Secret Dungeon to gain trust, he’s undergone significant hardship."
Yao Jin smiled, "If you visit at this critical mont, and opening the barrier causes ng Xizhou to suspect and the Second Elder’s task fails... who would bear this responsibility?"
Su Ye expressionlessly stated, "I’m sorry, Lord Yao, but I suspect you have privately altered the plan, keeping Elder Yuan Yang locked inside the Secret Dungeon."
His return from seclusion involves more than stripping Yao Jin of control over the Holy Judges.
He must et with Yuan Yang—
The longer Yao Jin stayed in the light, the more uneasy he felt!
"Su Saint, such words shouldn’t be spoken lightly."
Yao Jin’s smile remained, showing no anger, "Without evidence, today you say I privately altered the plan. Tomorrow, will you accuse of betraying the temple? The decision to enter the Secret Dungeon was made with the Second Elder’s consent... As he is willing to be wronged for the temple for a while, how can you speak carelessly?"
"So... you’re refusing to take to the Secret Dungeon?"
Su Ye stared directly at Yao Jin.
He knew this "partner" he grew up with too well.
So things don’t need evidence!
His gut feeling is the best testimony!
Yao Jin leisurely spoke, "Lord Su Ye, it’s not that I don’t dare, but I cannot. Once the task is over, you will naturally see Elder Yuan Yang. If you truly wish to go to the Secret Dungeon... why not report this with to the Great Elder."
"The Great Elder is busy today overseeing the ’Heart Cleansing Pool Trial.’"
Su Ye said coldly, "But visiting is a trivial matter, why bother him?"
"Then I’m afraid I can’t help you."
Yao Jin turned his wheelchair and started to leave.
He had only taken a few steps.
"Lord Yao, I advise you to co along obediently."
Su Ye’s words echoed in his Heart Lake.
"I, like you, was once a shadow of the underground Light City. I know the location of the ’Secret Dungeon’ and the countless barriers and layers of array patterns here."
Su Ye said calmly, "If you won’t lead the way, I can enter the Secret Dungeon alone."
"Then it’s Su Saint himself who is trespassing the Secret Dungeon, any harm incurred, nothing to do with ."
Yao Jin chuckled.
"Is that so? Can your Secret Dungeon really harm ?"
Su Ye responded quietly, "Lord Yao, you should understand the real aning behind my words... If a sufficiently powerful Transcendent decides to break into the dungeon and wreak havoc, you won’t be able to stop it."
"..."
Yao Jin turned his wheelchair, seriously gazed at Su Ye.
Su Ye casually sidestepped Yao Jin’s gaze, slowly walked behind the wheelchair, and placed his hands on it: "Now you’ve struggled to stand in the light, enjoying the sun, at this critical mont if sothing happens to the Secret Dungeon... what would be the consequences?"
"Su Saint, are you sure you want to do this? Damaging the dungeon benefits Light City in no way."
Yao Jin was thus wheeled out of the temple.
The two walked along the streets adorned with the sacred festivities.
"Those words sound familiar, just heard them... Without evidence, how could you slander ?"
Su Ye said expressionlessly, "With so many Gu family Night Watchn, if sothing happens to the Secret Dungeon, it’s likely they’d bla it on them."
This was a negotiation.
Su Ye wants to visit Yuan Yang to ensure whether Yao Jin is administering private punishnt to the Second Elder.
He knows his request will be t with refusal.
However... the more Yao Jin refused, the more determined he beca.
"I advise the Holy Son to think it through."
Yao Jin slowly said, "At this critical mont, if we insist on going to the Secret Dungeon, in case any disaster is provoked..."
Su Ye’s palm slightly leaned forward from the back of the wheelchair, placing on his shoulder.
"Crack."
A very slight sound of bones.
Yao Jin’s expression slightly changed.
The hands behind him gently kneaded and massaged.
"Lord Yao, you must understand, I am the Holy Son... and you, you are nothing."
Su Ye pressed on Yao Jin’s shoulder and said seriously, "Now, at this mont, imdiately. Take to the Secret Dungeon."
...
...
"Young Master, you guessed right after all—"
Luo Yu reported back, "As soon as Su Ye ca out of seclusion, he indeed stripped Yao Jin of his powers, and many Holy Judges have left the temple to guard the Night Watchman’s rest area that we deliberately arranged!"
Gu Nanfeng leaned against the banyan tree in the courtyard, waking up from a ditative state.
He smiled and asked in a gentle voice, "Where is Su Ye now?"
"Already out of the temple."
Luo Yu said in a deep voice, "He is currently traveling with Yao Jin... It looks like they’re heading for the ’Secret Dungeon’!"
Zhong Fan beside him had a complicated expression.
The Young Master indeed calculated it very accurately; the two things Su Ye did after coming out of seclusion were both predicted!
One was to strip powers, and the other was to investigate the dungeon!
Gu Nanfeng stood up and spoke softly, "Su Ye and Yao Jin have always been at odds. Now that these two are in conflict, it cannot be just about stripping power. Su Ye will definitely go to the Secret Dungeon, and will certainly use the ’Yuan Yang’ matter to make a move, so Yao Jin must be looking for ways to hinder him. It’s just a pity... Yao Jin’s position is destined not to delay for long, as long as Su Ye wants to see Yuan Yang once, he can’t be stopped anyway."
"Young Master, you an to?"
Luo Yu saw Gu Nanfeng reach out to dust off his shoulder and couldn’t help but get nervous.
"This opportunity is very good, I want to try it."
Gu Nanfeng said lightly, "If both Yao Jin and Su Ye are in the Secret Dungeon, then the prohibitions and barriers will be closed. As long as I’m fast enough, I can rescue ng Xizhou, and also take Yao Jin and Su Ye as hostages... and leave the Secret Dungeon together."
As long as you’re fast enough?
Zhong Fan was still a bit worried after hearing this, but he quickly let it go.
A wooden knife was inserted under the banyan tree in the courtyard.
Gu Nanfeng reached out and gently grasped the handle.
The next mont.
Countless gusts of wind roared, leaves rustled, and the figure that reached out to grasp the wooden knife suddenly vanished in the courtyard, leaving only countless swift winds brushing against Luo Yu and Zhong Fan’s faces.
Gu Nanfeng had already disappeared.
At this mont, Zhong Fan finally understood why the Young Master always said that when it ca to rescuing from the dungeon, only he could do it, and no one else could.
Only those who have truly witnessed the Great Success of Lan Qie can understand what a terrifying speed this is.
Traveling with the wind, in an instant, one can vanish into the heavens and earth.
...
...
"If I rember correctly, the last ti I ca here was more than ten years ago."
Su Ye pushed Yao Jin’s wheelchair to the end of a long alley.
He spoke softly, "The entrance to this Secret Dungeon really hasn’t changed a bit."
On either side of this extrely hidden alley, it appeared quite unremarkable.
But in fact, as long as you go deeper, you will see the Heavy Armor Guard stationed inside the Secret Dungeon all year round.
This is a unit with a transcendent status in the Holy Judge Army, and Jia Wei ca from among the Heavy Armor Guard back then.
Each of these Heavy Armor Guards is powerful, with firm will, equipped with A-level sealing items, Scale Armor, tough-skinned, and highly resistant to strikes!
"Holy Son, do you really want to enter the Secret Dungeon?"
Just as they were about to enter the end of the alley barrier, Yao Jin, who had been pretending to doze off, suddenly asked.
Su Ye raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Lord Yao, what’s the matter, are you scared?"
"Indeed, a bit scared."
Yao Jin adjusted his Light Church Robe and said seriously, "I heard that during your years in seclusion, you have successfully had a breakthrough and beco a Titled Level figure... I’m just not sure to what extent your strength has reached?"
"What do you want to say?"
Su Ye slightly frowned.
"Nothing, I’m just a bit afraid of dying."
Yao Jin regretfully said, "As per your request, I have already opened the barrier prohibition within the Secret Dungeon. If any accidents happen next, I hope you, Su Ye, can protect a bit. If I die, then what happens in the Secret Dungeon... you won’t be able to explain it."
"Relax, you won’t die."
Su Ye said expressionlessly, "It’s just a trip to the Secret Dungeon, it’s not taking your life."
He pushed Yao Jin and entered the Secret Dungeon barrier.
At the mont they entered the Secret Dungeon.
Yao Jin looked at his nose, ditated inwardly, and silently smiled.

(There will be another update tonight. I’ll do my best to get it out before one o’clock.)
